“I cannot express how much I appreciated the service. Above and beyond in all respects. Pretty last minute booking, very quick to respond. So sweet and kind. Top notch communication and sent all kinds of pictures. Even swept up the litter and did other extras that were absolutely more than was needed. So very appreciative. Absolutely the best pet sitter experience! Thank you so much for your time and effort. You're amazing!”


“Olivia was wonderful! She stayed at our house 5 nights with our senior dog. He took to her immediately when we met her for the first time. She left our home exactly how we left it - we almost wouldn’t have known she was there! We felt very comfortable leaving our dog in her hands.”


About: Having grown up on a farm, caring for animals has always been second nature to me—especially dogs. From an early age, I learned the responsibility and joy that comes with tending to animals of all kinds, ensuring they are happy, healthy, and well cared for. Many of the pets I have today were either rescues or animals I took in to help owners during times of transition. Currently, our family dog is nearly 15 years old and requires specialized care due to multiple health issues. This has given me extensive experience in administering medications, monitoring health conditions, and providing the patience and attention that senior dogs require. Whether it’s a young, energetic pup or an older dog needing extra care, I understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every pet. Dog sitting isn’t just about supervision—it’s about ensuring each dog feels at home, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. With my background and deep love for animals, I strive to make every dog feel like part of the family. I work from home and run my own business, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive and loving care for pets. Being home throughout the day allows me to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for at all times. I provide a safe, loving environment where pets feel secure and at ease. From feeding and playtime to administering medications and offering plenty of affection, I tailor my care to each animal’s needs. Whether they need extra attention, a calm space to relax, or special care, I make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and right at home.

“Abbi is so sweet and was so nice with my dog!! He is a handful but Abbi took great care of him and was so kind and patient with him. She even called me to tell me that my ceiling was leaking and stayed over while the guy fixed it. I highly recommend Abbi and will be asking her for any of my pet-sitting needs :)”


“Shelby was great with the boys. They seemed happy and calm when I got home from a longish trip. She contacted me immediately when there was a bit of a scuffle and handled a couple of surprises well.”


“Ben has tons of reviews for a reason! He keeps a full Rover schedule and meats his commitments like a pro. We had to make house sitting arrangements with only 2 weeks notice and he was able to fit house sitting with our 2 yr old German Shepard into his schedule with that short notice. Our dog was well taken care of and our small home was left in exactly the same shape as when we left for the weekend. Thanks again!”


“Kyla was a fantastic pet sitter. She took care of our two dogs and cat while our family was on vacation. She kept us updated with pictures; she gave our animals plenty of love, and she made our vacation better because we knew our animals were cared for. No issues. We would absolutely invite her back to watch our animals again. Highly recommend!”


About: As a child, I had several pet dogs. As an adult, I had two great dogs for the family. Now recently retired, I occasionally sit and dog-walk two grand dogs. As a retiree, my schedule is quite flexible. I am available any day of the week. I can walk or check in on your pet at any time during the day. I'll be consistent with your pet and alter my interaction depending on your and your pet's style. If I'm at your home, I'll treat it with great respect and leave everything as it was when I arrived.

“Ladonna was wonderful! My dog usually won’t eat much the first day or so when I’m gone, but she was so comfortable that she ate the first evening! That’s a big deal for us. Ladonna sent us pics, took my dog for a couple short walks (another big deal since Millie can be quite anxious on the leash), and gave great reports of how Millie was going. I will absolutely book with her again!”


“Kuma was wonderful! He was incredibly caring and attentive to our dogs. One of our dogs developed an infection right before our trip, and Kuma was incredibly responsive and timely with his updates, which helped us feel more comfortable being thousands of miles from our pups. He went above and beyond to care for our girls!”


“Fantastic! I would definitely book with Brittney again. She took great care of my two dogs, my house may be cleaner than when I left, and she was quick to respond and send feedback and pictures. She was also kind enough to water my flowers and garden while I was gone.”



“Amy did a fantastic job taking care of my senior lab, Frank. Each day can bring about a new scenario with him and she used all the tools and tricks to keep him calm and happy just as I would. great amount of communication and she spent a considerable amount of time with him. Highly recommend.”


“We hired Emma to house sit our three pugs for a week while we went out of town. She greatly exceeded our expectations and was reliable, friendly and trustworthy with our dogs, staying in daily contact with us and providing excellent care!”


“Kaylee is always amazing with our dogs! Our dogs and cats love her and they are always safe and well taken care of. Definitely our go-to sitter!”


“It was so wonderful to have Maddie watch Bella while I visited family out of state over a long weekend. Not only did Maddie keep me updated daily with pictures and what her and Bella were up to, but she was also very attentive to all of the instructions I went over with her prior to leaving. I would highly recommend Maddie to anyone looking for a pet sitter and will definitely request her services in the future.”


“Hillary was so great with our old dog Meadow! She was able to handle Meadow's walking needs and give her tons of attention. I'd rebook with Meadow immediately!”


“Kaylee did a great job with our two babies which are high maintenance. This was our first time leaving them with someone new and once we were able to clarify a few questions everything went wonderfully.”


About: I'd love to have the opportunity to work with you and your pet. I have extensive experience with animals, raising dogs all my life. I currently have a 4 year old American Bully and a Ball Python. I've cared for various dogs, cats, reptiles, livestock, and rodents. Basically anything that counts as a a furry (or scaly) family member! Please feel free to check out my profile, and let me know if you think this would be a good match. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact me. I am a high school teacher, so I have open availability during the summers and breaks. However, during the school year I provide care in the evenings and weekends. I always first defer to the owners' instructions. However, my typical routine is to first gain trust with the pet so they understand that I am not a threat (I've always got a pack of treats on hand!). Then safety is my number one priority. I secure the pet so they are prepared for the service (primarily walks) to minimize any potential accidents.

“Megan was great! This was our first time using Rover and she helped walk us through the whole process. Always sent pictures and responded quickly. We look forward to booking with Megan again in the future!”


About: I have taken care of my own dogs since I was young. I currently have 2 dogs of my own a 2 year old and an 8 year old. I am a teacher on summer break and currently work part-time at the YMCA. I have plenty of time during the day to walk and check in on your dogs. I have a fenced in backyard and two friendly dogs of my own. I have my own leashes and harnesses in case of use when needed.
