“Irina was amazing with our boy Veer! She took care of Veer every detail with great care in our home as he was her own. I highly recommend her and will using her services again every time we travel.”


“Eleanor was wonderful with my 3 dogs. She sent lots of pictures. The girls were happy and well taken care of. They got plenty of outdoor time and playtime with Eleanor. Would highly recommend Eleanor”

“My wife and I just had Jennifer stay with our dog for the very first time …. it was perfect! Wylie and Jennifer got along great! Jennifer made him feel loved and comfortable. Wylie has a strong attachment to my wife, but Jennifer won him over. While the Rover website is great and easy to work with, Jennifer walked us through the process, explained what she could do and made us feel good about leaving Wylie in the hands of a complete stranger (a stranger no more). We were equally impressed with how well Jennifer treated our home. We were gone overnight and Jennifer stayed with Wylie in our home. There is no question that I very highly recommend Jennifer to anyone who is the least bit nervous about having a pet-sitter. We plan on using her every chance we get!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a child, and love spending time with animals! I also foster cats in my free time and like to volunteer with local shelters! I’m currently in medical school, so this is a part time position for me, helping me to pay for my education and honestly supporting my mental health! I like to provide a calm and stable environment, and take pride in my ability to understand dog/cat body language, which helps me provide appropriate care!

“Yasmine was a great choice to watch our new rescue dog June over the holidays! She kept in touch with pics and videos and was very thoughtful. She left the house clean and cared for. I highly recommend her, don’t hesitate to book her!”

About: I've taken care of dogs (either my own or pet-sitting) for the past 15 years. I have had many friends and family members rely on me to keep their pets fed, walked, played with, and loved while they are out! I also have experience with senior dogs, giving medication etc. My work schedule is fairly flexible, so it's super easy for me to fit pet care into my daily/weekly routines! I keep my home clean and safe for pups to venture around. I will send lots of pictures so you know your pet is happy and well taken care of. I have a fairly flexible full time job where I am able to work from home as needed. Additionally, when I need to be in person it is usually only for a few hours maximum. So I have plenty of time to be playing with and caring for your pups! I live in a very walkable neighborhood with lots of great spots for fur babies to use the bathroom and get their exercise in! I spend a lot of time after initial drop off trying to make your pet as comfortable and relaxed as possible! I'll also send you lots of pictures to alleviate some of the stress of leaving your pup with someone else. I spend a lot of time giving the pets I care for the same love and attention they would receive at home.
“Viv is the very best of the best. She far surpassed my expectations and offered incredible service and expertise while caring for Blueberry and our home. Her knowledge and experience of caring for pets is outstanding. Viv shared in depth everything I needed to know about my time away from my dog and home daily. I am so thankful I have found Viv!!”

“I was so fortunate to have found Calli when I needed someone to be gentle and affectionate toward my senior dog and approachable for my younger dog. She tended to Foxy with so much care because of her recent injury and Singha warmed up to her too which surprised me. I will certainly have Cali be their caregiver again. I recommend Calli as a five star sitter.”


“Laura watched our dog at our home while we were away for a few days. She did an excellent job with our dog and treated our home with respect. We will definitely reach out in the future when we can't bring our pup on trips! Highly recommend Laura”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was a teenager, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up around both dogs and cats taught me how to understand their different personalities, needs, and behaviors from an early age. Over the years, I’ve gained hands on experience with pets of all ages, and sizes. I truly enjoy creating a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for them. Whether it’s going on walks, playtime, feeding, giving medication, or simply providing companionship and affection, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet who is a part of your family. I take that responsibility seriously.

Whether it’s keeping an energetic dog active with walks and playtime or giving a cat quiet companionship and care, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I also make sure owners feel reassured by providing updates, photos, and clear communication throughout the stay.

“This was my first time using Rover, and let me just say Kortni took away all of the worries and anxiety that I had. She is truly one of a kind. She sent pictures and updates throughout the entire trip. You can see the love she has for pets! I would highly recommend her to anyone! She’s the best!”


“Quincy is an excellent pet sitter! He kept our cats company while we were away, and gave us daily updates. Our home and pets were well cared-for while we were away. We will definitely use Quincy again!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs and other animals for about 5 years now. I love all types of animals and know how to act around them to ensure that they feel relaxed. I walk my neighbor's dog all the time and have pet-sat for many friends before. I can administer medication if needed, bring them on walks, or train them. I am currently working part-time, so I have a relatively flexible schedule for overnight sitting, day sitting, dog/cat walks, etc. We can work out logistics! I am all about safety. I am diligent about following any rules or precautions that need to be followed. Please list any concerns or needs you need me to follow and I will ensure that those accommodations are met.

Celestine truly went above and beyond!! We were worried as this was the first time leaving our pets so long and with a housesitter, but after the first few hours it was clear all our pets were in amazing hands! Celestine showed clear love and understanding of animals. We were initially worried how our reactive dog would do while we were away, but Celestine worked with him with great care, patience, and clear expertise from training guide dogs, adjusting walking schedules for our reactive dog and doing some training. Updates were sent frequently and always with such aesthetic photos 🙂 We would trust Celestine to watch our pets again in a heartbeat 😊

Kelly was absolutely excellent. We had her stay overnight with our cats, including one who had recently had a medical emergency, for four days. She was diligent in providing updates, sending photos, and making sure our kitties felt loved. We will absolutely be using her again.
Sarah is an incredible pet sitter!! She watched our dog and cat for 10 days over the holidays. She made sure our pup got lots of exercise and even took her on errands with her to avoid leaving her alone (she has separation anxiety). Sarah also won over our cat who typically isn’t very nice lol. Highly recommend booking Sarah to watch your pets!

JLyne was amazing! She came to sit my elderly cat Papi while I was out of town for an important event. I was able to focus on my event because she was able to take care of him so well. She sent me updates and answered all of my questions. She sent pics as well. To top it all off, it was even her birthday and she still watched him. Thank you so much JLyne. I would definitely recommend her! 😻😻😻

Nicole was absolutely great with our dog while we were on vacation. Upon meeting Nicole we knew she was going to be a great fit for us. Our dog ran right up to her and was so happy to meet her - dogs just seem to know good people 😊. Thanks to Nicole, we were able to enjoy our vacation as we knew our fur baby was in good hands. Each day ended with Nicole sending us amazing pictures and videos. This was our first time using a sitter and it was a wonderful experience. We highly recommend Nicole and will definitely be booking her in the future.

I couldn’t recommend Frances enough. She is a great communicator. She made sure she understood all the needs of my dog before I left for my trip. She contacted me when she had a question about my dog’s behavior. All of these things helped me to relax and enjoy my time away knowing my dog was in super capable hands!
