“Meghan was absolutely wonderful and took great care of my pups! They were all very well loved and cared for while I was gone. She was very communicative and sent me daily pictures and updates.”


“I recently hired Kyle as a house and dogsitter, and I couldn't be more impressed with his service. From the moment he stepped into my home, I felt at ease knowing my house and beloved pets were in capable hands. Not only did he maintain the cleanliness and security of my home, but he also went above and beyond in caring for my furry companions. He followed all instructions meticulously, ensuring my pets' routines were maintained and that they received plenty of love and attention. Kyle demonstrated exceptional responsibility and reliability throughout his stay, and I returned to find my house in impeccable condition and my pets happy and healthy. I highly recommend Kyle for anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring house and dogsitter. His professionalism and genuine love for animals truly set him apart.”


“ABOVE AND BEYOND!! Phyllis is so sweet and I’m pretty sure she spoiled me as much as my boy!! She sent me so many pics and updates with added bonuses that made my vacation that much more enjoyable knowing he was in great hands!! She took great care of our home as well. I will book her again and again!!”


“Oli was great. She sent pics and updates daily, which we really appreciate. She stayed at our house the entire time we were gone. We have a very old dog and a neurotic dog and 4 cats. She provided love and care to our pets and home. I highly recommend.”


“Alex was great with the dogs and was responsive to our messages. Was very impressed that he came over for a meet and greet and was taking notes and asking questions. Left the home so clean we couldn't even tell someone had been there. Highly recommend”


“Kaleigh is amazing! This was the first time leaving my pup and Kaleigh made me feel at ease with consistent communication and updates. She took the time to learn my dog’s personality and routine so she could be as comfortable as possible. I’d definitely recommend Kaleigh!”


“Holly is the best cat sitting. She always took pictures of my cat and sent it everyday. She also on top of everything. My Godfrey loves her so much. Thank you, Holly! High recommended her!”



“Emily is wonderful!! Our dog has anxiety and Emily was totally understanding and they were soon best buds! Emily was great at checking in and keeping us updated. Highly recommend!”


“Kyla was so incredible! She sent frequent updates throughout the weekend and gave me such peace of mind while I was away from my pet! Can't recommend her enough!”


“Averi was great with my fur-babies. I have two senior goldens and a cat who is very cautious. I am always nervous about leaving them with a new person, but she was wonderful. She communicated well before and throughout the stay. I came back from a week, with happy healthy animals, and a tidy home. I would definitely recommend her.”


“Rebecca was so kind with my pups! She sent photos, communicated quickly, and even helped one of my dogs when she had an upset stomach. She left the house clean, and left a lovely note. I cannot wait to rebook her when we have our next adventure!”


About: I have 3 cats and 2 mice, so I have a lot of experience taking care of cats and small animals. I love dogs and have pet-sat for my friends with small and medium size dogs I work a full time job Monday - Friday. I am available to do drop-ins before 7:30am or after 4:30 pm on weekdays. I am always available in the evenings or weekends. I will follow whatever guidelines the owner's give. Otherwise, my base care is to give dogs 2 walks a day and at least 30 minutes of playtime for both dogs and cats. Ensure the pets are fed and gone potty/clean litterboxes.

“Seline was super helpful and great house-sitting our dog and cat when we were out of town for the weekend. She provided photo updates each day and communicated quickly throughout the stay.”


“Allyson was attentive to our family's needs and communicative while we were away. Our dogs were relaxed and happy with her. It was a pleasure having her house sit for us.”


“This was our first time using Rover and it was a great experience. Our cat Paintball is often shy around new people, but when Megan came to the house to meet her, she didn't hide and she let Megan pet her right away! While we were away, Megan was great at sending updates and pictures. When we got home, the house was just as we'd left it. Paintball is anxious in stormy weather and it was nice having the peace of mind that Paintball had an emotional support human while we were away :)”

“Cat was and is WONDERFUL. She stayed with our dog for 12 days, the longest vacation we have ever taken, and we were admittedly nervous about leaving him for that long. She was thoughtful and communicative leading up to and during her stay, left the house very neat and clean and put us totally at ease. I cannot possibly put into this little box how much we appreciate Cat—other than to say I cannot imagine engaging anyone else in care of my beloved pet. I will miss our text message check-ins and recommend her entirely.”



“Noel was kind, quick to respond, polite, respectful, and the perfect fit to watch our pup Yeti. She took great care of him and our home while we were gone! Definitely gave us peace of mind.”

Parnell Industrial Area pet parents share their Rover experiences
Alex was amazing - very professional! He was very attentive to our wishes and instructions, excellent communicator, punctual and all the things you would expect from hiring a pro. The house was left clean and he genuinely seems to care for our pets and enjoy their company. Got photos every day and followed our complicated medication schedule. The dogs seemed happy and healthy when we returned! We HIGHLY recommend!

Kim went above and beyond in watching our dog while we were away. Her care and communication were excellent, and we enjoyed the pictures and text updates that she sent. Our house was also spotless when we arrived back, and our dog was happy and healthy. Kim even left some sweet surprises for us when we returned, and took the time to meet our dog twice before watching her for the first time. We would recommend Kim for petsitting to anyone, including our family and friends. She is a special person!

Joy was amazing!! She stayed with our dog for 7 days. Our dog can be a lot to handle and she did it perfectly. I received an update and cute photo each day. She was very tidy, organized, and most of all- trustworthy! The list of compliments to give her is endless. Forrest is a very active dog with some anxiety. He usually doesn’t do well on a leash, but Joy was able to walk him with some slack on the leash. That’s a huge milestone for our dog. I know he loved every minute of it. While Forrest was very excited to see me, he kept checking to see if Joy was coming back. He definitely misses her. Joy will always be the first person I reach out to when we need someone to take care of Forrest!

Katie was a wonderful dog sitter! She was great at communicating and shared updates throughout the week, which made me feel confident that my dog was in the perfect hands. My pup was in such great spirits when I got home which was great too. I know Katie had such a big impact on making sure he was comfortable in my absence and had plenty of love. Would absolutely recommend to others needing a reliable and kind sitter!
