“Imani was absolutely wonderful! She stayed at our house to watch our dog, Sandy while we were away and I felt confident Sandy was in good hands through updates and photos. Highly recommend!”

About: Of course I love animals, but what matters more to me is noticing who your pet actually is. Are they the kind of dog who needs to sniff the same corner for five minutes before moving on? Are they a little shy at first and pretending not to care? Do they get excited easily and need someone calm around them? Are they a cat who wants company, but absolutely not too much company? I really enjoy figuring out those little things. I’m gentle, patient, and very respectful of each pet’s routine. I don’t believe in rushing them or treating every animal the same. Some pets need play and attention, some need slow walks and quiet reassurance, and some just need someone kind nearby so the house does not feel empty. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a way that still feels familiar to them. I’m also very careful with instructions. Feeding routines, medications, walk preferences, favorite toys, things that scare them, how they like to be greeted, whether they are allowed on the couch. I want to know all of it. I know these details are not “extra.” They are usually the things that make a pet feel secure. I’ll also send updates and photos, not just to say everything is fine, but so you can actually feel connected to them while you are away. My childhood friend and roommate, Matin, may also help me sometimes, and you may see her in some of my photos. She has had pets since childhood and fostered animals for several years, so she is very used to different personalities, nervous pets, affectionate pets, and animals who need a little extra patience. She is calm, loving, and very responsible, and I trust her completely with animals. Between the two of us, your pet will be cared for by people who genuinely like being around animals, but who also understand that trust matters. I’ll treat your pet with warmth, patience, and care, and I’ll treat your home and instructions with respect. This year, much of my work is remote, which gives me real flexibility in my schedule. That means I’m able to spend unrushed, attentive time with pets, not just quick check-ins, but actual companionship, care, and presence. I can shape my day around walks, visits, feeding times, play, and quiet company, depending on what each pet needs. My childhood friend and roommate, Matin, who is included in the pictures, also helps me out with my Rover schedules. My home is my cat Lilo’s safe little kingdom, so I can’t host other pets here. But I’m very happy to come to your home, meet outside for walks, or figure out a setup that feels easy and comfortable for you and your pet.
“Gave him 5 stars because the app won’t let me give him 10 ⭐️! Communicates frequently, took of my our high energy dog, and kept the house clean!!! Jeffrey was the best dog watcher we’ve had!”

“Bill was absolutely outstanding. He stayed at our place while we’re out of the country for a little over a week. He took incredible care of our two golden retrievers and sent many updates and pictures of them. He was prompt and took great care of our house while we were away. We will definitely be booking Bill again for his services!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Rozz is an absolute gem! She took amazing care of our cat, DB, while we were away for our wedding, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She kept us updated with adorable pictures, gave DB so much love and attention, and made sure she was well-fed and happy. It was clear our cat adored her! Knowing DB was in such great hands allowed us to fully enjoy our special day without any worries. We truly appreciate everything Rozz did and will definitely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I have 10 years of experience taking care of cats and dogs! I currently do not have any pets but love having them over. Not only do I have plenty experience, but I am also insured in the event of an accident! Please don’t hesitate to contact me 💖 I work from home as an administrative assistant so my schedule is very open and I am able to give really good care and attention to your pet if they are staying at my place. In addition to this I can also work traveling to your lovely animal into my schedule with no problems! While I live in an apartment building there is a fenced off area for pets to use the bathroom and play and it is even separated by the size of dogs so that they can safely play and roam. Pets are allowed on my furniture and I take care of them as if they were my own.
“Olivia was a pleasure to have watch Bear for the day. He doesn’t need much, but as a new addition to the household he still needs a friend in the house to be relaxed. She was very punctual and let me know up front that she had something else scheduled for the day and would need to leave for a bit. Bear took to her right away and cried when she left.”

“Sky is wonderful. They were so caring and thoughtful with our pets, and noticed some things about their care that we'd overlooked. We are really grateful to have found Sky!”

“Jourdi took such great care of our two cats and little pup! They were super attentive to their needs, communicative, and left our house in great shape. I definitely want to keep working with them!”

“Raquel is a delight. She is warm and responsible. Listens carefully to all instructions for watching your beloved pet and follows through. I recommend her without reservation!!”

“Alyssa did great with Nina and Pepper! She took care of Pepper's meds and paw bandage change, and both of them were happy and relax when we returned from our trip. Thank you Alyssa!”

“Mey was absolutely amazing with our two pups while we were out of town. We loved all of the pictures and videos she sent. She took great care of our older dog who isn’t as active and our younger pup who has a lot of energy. We will definitely have her back. Thank you, Mey!”


“We cannot recommend Adam enough as a house/dog sitter. It is always so hard to find someone trustworthy enough to stay in our home and take care of our amazing boy. Adam was communicative, trustworthy, and reliable allowing for us to have a relaxing vacation knowing that our pup was safe. We have a 2 year old doberman who is not always the quickest to warm up to people, however he took to Adam quickly and truly enjoy his stay with him. In addition, the house was in excellent condition when we returned and Loki was happy and well exercised. Will absolutely book Adam again for future sitting opportunities and strongly recommend him to sit your pup.”

“Anthony stayed with my dog for about two weeks while I was out of town. He had great communication the entire time and took good care of my dog and my house. I recommend Anthony and will continue to request him when I need a petsitter!”

“Quanece & Malik were available last minute when I needed someone to watch my dog for a few hours. They were responsive, followed all my directions, and sent updates throughout the day. I’ve booked with them a few times, and I would definitely do it again.”

“Margo was such a good sitter. She came and met my pup the day before since they hadn’t met before. Took the time to ask all the questions on his habits, schedule, and medications. Even though I needed her pretty early in the morning she had no problems with being on time. The videos and pics throughout the day was a very nice touch.”

Penfield pet parents share their Rover experiences
Michael was awesome. I was able to book him in a pinch after another sitter had to cancel. He is calm, experienced, and Porter was well cared for while we were gone. He communicated with me daily 2-3x day, asked questions if they came up and dealt with a power outage that lasted about 20 hours. It rained a large part of the time we were gone and he diligently walked Porter in the rain. When we got home everything was in order. Dog towels were washed and the house was as we left it. We have used him in the past and will continue to use his services in the future for our dog. We were out of the country and knowing we had a responsible and capable dog sitter was essential.

Anam house-sitted Tinju for 2 nights in our home and was great! She kept us up todate through out the days with plenty of updates, photos, and videos. She took excellent care of Tinju, asked alot of questions, and followed directions. At our meet and greet before the stay Anam was very professional! We highly recommend her and would definitely hire Anam again!

Attentive to my cats, responsive to communication with me, and overall a responsible and kind person I felt very comfortable leaving my cats with for several days. Danielle took great care of them and connected with them quickly and easily upon her first visit. My cats were well cared for, as was my home. It was almost hard to tell someone else had been there. I would recommend Danielle if you are looking for a warm and friendly person to care for your pets and send you daily updates with photos. She did a great job and would definitely hire again.

Having Mikayla stay with our babes while we’re out of town has made our travels exponentially easier. Both radish and Ernie have fallen in love them, I think they may prefer them over us after their second stay. Will absolutely continue to book Mikayla for future stays!
