“Ashley took amazing good care of both my senior dog and my home. It was great being able to travel and not worry about Dottie getting all her meds at the right time or her slightly complicated meals created. Loved getting daily updates and returned to a happy dog and clean house.”


“Nicky was great with our two dogs who were used to having someone home all the time while we treated ourselves to a weekend away. One of our pups often entertain some anxiety chewing when we are gone too long and has a very sensitive stomach. She took in all the extra details and precautions in stride and the pups were very happy with some walks and snuggles. We returned to two happy pups and our home in order. Would definitely use again! Thanks!”


“Dane is an incredible dog sitter! This was his second time watching Noah and it went so smoothly. He is very communicative, gives excellent updates, and Noah absolutely loves him. Will definitely book with him in the future. He took Noah for lots of great walks, had playtime and training time with him, and I genuinely feel like I had peace of mind while traveling that Noah was getting exceptional care tailored to his needs and personality.”


“Dennis did a wonderful job watching my 13 month old Collie puppy. My dog is large and somewhat high energy and needs many miles of walks and Dennis did a wonderful job making sure that he got all of the mental and physical stimulation he needed. I got lots of picture updates, and felt very relaxed while leaving my dog while I was on vacation. Dennis also took great care of my home and was super responsive whenever I had questions. We did one meeting before I booked Dennis for the weekend, and then I booked him for one dog walk session before the Dog Sitting time because he was going to arrive after I had left. He was super open to everything and he reviewed my dog care instructions before I left. I felt like we had really clear really good communication. I’ve used several Rover pet sitters and Dennis is by far the best one that I’ve booked. I cannot recommend him enough! (unless you want him on the same weekend that I do and then I would still recommend him but I call dibs!)”


“Matt is always great with our dog, Elliott. He was very responsible with Elliott's medication schedule and attentive to his emotional needs. I'll be re-booking Matt for our next trip as well. Thank you, Matt!”


“Angela was amazing! She offered to do a meet and greet before sitting, which was perfect for my dog who is a little wary of new people. I also got plenty of updates and pictures. And I was able to enjoy my time away worry free because she was in such good hands.”


“Charlii watched Wes and Margot while we were on vacation. She stayed at our house with the dogs and sent wonderful EOD updates with lots of pictures and notes. We’re excited to have her watch them again soon!”


“Victoria was the best! She sent pictures daily and was extremely communicative. Our pets were well cared for! We will 100% be asking her to come back next time we are gone.”


“Elisa's calm demeanor is a game changer for our anxious little Moana and this time she went above and beyond dealing with Moana's digestive issues. So grateful to have a sitter we can rely on to care for our fur baby the same as we do.”


“Melina was an incredible dog sitter for my pup! She is highly responsive, thoughtful, and followed all of my instructions. It was my first time leaving my dog over the weekend using Rover and it was a great experience! My dog became quickly comfortable and relaxed with her and she made sure to send tons of text and photo updates throughout the weekend. Thank you again, Melina!”


“Qishu was amazing with our high energy dog and extremely communicative with us. We received lots of updates and pictures over all the days we were gone. We would unreservedly recommend Qishu to anyone!”


“Marina is great! She house/dog sat my two small older dogs for three nights. She is/was dependable, trustworthy and respectful of my house with all its little quirks. If I had a question, she answered right away and sent pictures. The house was as clean as if I'd never left. I was able to enjoy my vacation with no worries about my little dogs. My dogs were very calm and happy when I returned. I doubt they missed me at all. I would definitely hire Marina again.”


About: I’ve had experience with a handful of different cats and dogs, from walking to house sitting, I also offer pet photography alongside your service. I am a quick learner, motivated, and would love to take care of your pet. I am in the process of preparing to start animal behavioral college, where I’ll be majoring in animal training. I’m currently on a break from work until the end of August/ early September so I can accommodate to your needs and have lots of time to play with your critters. I have a fenced large open patio and yard, the perfect spot with plenty of space for your fur baby/ies. I can also stay overnight at your house, I’m open, I will always leave your home better than I found it.

About: I have pet sat for many acquaintances over the years, as well nannying which included caring for family pets. I also have two cats of my own! I am currently wfh freelancers, I have plenty of availability in my schedule to care for other peoples furry guys! I have too small of an apartment to have a dog of my own - so my own pet care would never get in the way. I play with my cats every morning and night for at least two hours a day. I believe in a healthy diet for all animals, as well as providing an enriched home life for all domesticated animals. I am proudly in tune with an animal's body language and how the all vocalize their needs differently.

“G’La was amazing! She took such great care of Tuna and Finn while we were away for two nights and two and a half days. I felt totally at ease knowing they were in good hands. She was communicative, kind, and clearly loves animals — Tuna and Finn were so calm and happy when we got back. Couldn’t recommend her more. Will definitely be reaching out again!”


“I had Esteban house sit to look after my big, rambunctious dog Sable for 6 days. Not only did Esteban take amazing care of my dog, he left the house in incredible condition. All my dog’s needs were met, and he sent regular pupdates. I’m a very anxious person and it was my first time using Rover, but Esteban put me at ease and I am so glad I decided to go with him. I would 100% use Esteban again if I ever leave town. I believe it’s safer and easier on my dog than boarding her at a dog hotel. You da man, Esteban!”


“This was my second time working with Zsa-Zsa and she was great! Her communication leading up to the stay and during the stay was thorough and detailed. My dogs were excited to see her when she arrived at the house; that’s always a good sign!”


“Our experience with Shanley was nothing short of amazing! She was our very first Rover/pet sitter experience. We are so thankful to have found her. She sat our 130lb Irish Wolfhound, Lando, at our house for two days. Shanley was very attentive to Lando’s schedule and took excellent care of him. She updated us on how he was doing, sent pictures, and always responded very quickly. We saw her a few days later so she could meet our other dogs, and Lando was over the moon to see her again! We definitely plan to use her for future trips”


“Maren was very attentive to our dog and respectful of our home. Our lab still has a good amount of energy at 10 and she kindly gave her nice long walks. Maren also communicated with us and sent pictures to let us know our pup was happy.”

Sofia C.
“Sophia cared for my spunky senior chihuahua for a week last month while I went on vacation. I was immediately impressed with how gentle her approach was upon meeting my dog for the first time. She obviously has the experience to understand dogs especially ones that can be a little nervous at first. She took care of my dog at my home. Sophia sent me daily updates with adorable pictures and let me know what they were up to. I never had to wonder how Zoey was because Sophia was so on top of letting me know and I really appreciated the communication factor. She left my place spotless, it may have been cleaner than when I left it haha. I will definitely be having Sophia sit for me again!”


Cynthia H.
“Cyn is one of the most trustworthy and loving pet caretakers I have ever met. She is a true animal whisperer, and she is just one of those people who is able to form instant connections with pets when she meets them. I don’t think there is anyone I would trust more taking care of my pet. She is excellent at training and supporting animals of a variety of ages and behaviors (something I’ve witnessed firsthand!). She’s also an excellent communicator, so she is wonderful with work with humans as well! I highly recommend hiring Cyn to care for your pets!!”
