“Tatum was a phenomenal cat sitter for our sweet kitten! She sent frequent updates, obviously played with him lots and brought over more toys, snuggled with him, and went above and beyond to make sure he had as much companionship as possible. We are thrilled we connected with her and hope we can have her watch Gus again!”
“Miranda was excellent with our senior dog and took great care of him. She made sure he was well fed, got his potty breaks, and had plenty of time for his naps. She kept us updated and sent photos while we were gone. I would highly recommend Miranda and her outstanding care.”
“This was my 1st time using Rover and having a dog sitter that comes to my house. Yolena was very great with caring for my 3 dogs. She gave me daily reports and addressed any concerns or questions I had. I plan on using her services again in the future.”
“Casey took wonderful care of our furry ones; especially our dog, Crowley! We will certainly request their assistance again and recommend whenever we can!”
“Love. Love. Love. Ashley was amazing from the very beginning. From the initial meet and greet I knew she was going to be ‘the one’. We have two German shepherds that can be a little weird with their eccentricities and she was wonderful with them. I was sent pictures and updates throughout the weekend which were appreciated. Overall I have NO hesitations with recommending her. She’s wonderful!”
“Michael took care of our dog and cats while we were out of town and he did a great job! He was polite, punctual, and communicative. He sent many updates and photos, which we love! Would definitely recommend him and we plan to use him again!”
“Janice was amazing while taking care of Nacho and house sitting. Updated and pics were frequent and reassuring. House and Nacho were well taken care of. Will definitely look to book again. Thank you Janice!”
“Marissa was a big stress, relief for dogs that have food, aggression. She followed all of our strict rolls to make sure the dogs didn’t get into any fights over their dinners and overall I think she did really well.”
“Valerie was the best pet sitter we have had. She took great care of our 3 dogs and cat. Usually when we get back they are so relieved for us to be home but I think they missed Valerie which makes me happy. I would highly recommend her. Our dogs can be at times a little much and a little overwhelming, but she took care of them great.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind for the majority of my life. I have grown up with dogs as pets my entire life, ranging from small dogs to big dogs, and puppies to senior dogs. I have not only provided care for my own pets over the years, but my neighbors, friends, and family members have trusted me to take care of their pets as well. Some services I have vast experience in include dog walking, dog sitting, cat sitting, and more. I am currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! My schedule every week varies, but I generally have open availability in mornings, mid day, and evenings. Safety is my number one priority when taking care of your pets. I understand that dogs are more than just pets, they are family, and I will do anything in order to protect and ensure the upmost comfort and enjoyment for your pets when they are under my care.

“Couldn't be happier with Bri service! From the moment we met, it was clear they truly love dogs. My pups instantly felt comfortable with her and I could tell they were in good hands. Throughout the stay, Bri kept me updated with pictures and messages, showing how much fun Remi and Charlie were having. Whether it was walks, playtime, or cuddles, they were provided so much attention and care. I came home to a happy, well-exercised, and relaxed dogs, which made me feel so at ease while I was away. Bri was also very professional—punctual, easy to communicate with, and left everything clean and tidy. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter. Will definitely be booking again!”

When I arrived home there were fresh cut flowers and fresh eggs (She also watched chickens and ducks) i am thankful I found Ella. Thank you for doing a wonderful job.”
“Kiera is the best! She took such great care of our zoo and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and safe. She stayed in touch with updates and photos and we vacationed easy because we knew they were in great hands. We came back to a tidy house and content animals. 14/10”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I could remember growing up. And now more recently I’ve started watching family and friends animals as well while they’re gone on short trips I love visiting them and playing with them when I get there! Im currently working part time so I plenty of time to make sure your fur babies are taken care of. During the week is more better for me but I am flexible to do weekends sometimes as well! Since I have a full house I would prefer to come to you. I love to go for walks and play outside with my dogs or when I’m watching someone else’s and I make sure I keep them on the same feeding schedule.
“Brooke did an amazing job taking care of my pups! She made sure they got plenty of exercise daily before all the rain during my trip. She provided pictures and videos to show me they were doing great. I definitely recommend her and will be rebooking for future needs.”
“Five Stars across the board! Petey was truly wonderful. Our puppies were especially happy and well cared for. We were sent frequent pictures and update messages. Moving forward, we'll be using no one else to care for our pups.”
“Angie is awesome! I just got home and found everything just as I had left it. And when I had to leave for vacation, my sweet girl wasn’t feeling the best. Angie took everything in stride and took such good care of my pup while I was gone. I absolutely would not hesitate to have her back.”

Lyndsey C.
“I wholeheartedly recommend Lyndsey C. for dog sitting and pet care through Rover! Lyndsey has had dogs all her life, and to her, they’re not just pets—they’re family. She treats every dog as if they were her own sibling, filling her heart (and theirs!) with love and joy. Over the years, she has cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from West Highland Terriers to Pit Bull mixes to feisty chihuahuas and Black Labs. Lyndsey has been a trusted sitter for many neighborhood friends and family pets, always adhering to feeding and walking schedules while providing love and attention far beyond what’s expected. Her attention to detail and care ensures your pet will feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Being away from her own pup is hard for Lyndsey, but it means she has plenty of affection to shower on the pets she looks after. As a person and employee, Lyndsey is the complete package: trustworthy, prompt, responsible, and an absolute joy to work with. Your pet couldn’t be in better hands!”

“Karina is the most amazing pet caregiver I have ever met! She drives almost an hour to come and watch my dog peanut and he loves her as much as me. She goes above and beyond when it comes to taking care of my dog and he even tries to leave with her when she gets in her car. He loves getting to go on walks and getting pup cups at our local ice cream place. Would definitely recommend Karina 11/10 times to anyone needing this type of service!”
