“Nina is awesome! Im so glad I met her to help take care of Sadie! Very flexible, communicative and great person to love your pup! Sadie had so much fun with Nina, she also taught her a few new things!”

About: I have had dogs my whole life. My job has been to feed them, give them water, clean up after them, take them for walks, and give them medication. I also currently have a senior dog, so I have some experience with them! I have experience with small and big dogs alike. I am a college student who is home for the summer, so I have full availability. During the school year, I will work around my class schedule. Evenings and weekends will be free for sure. We have a fenced yard at home. Still, I watch my dogs just in case. In spring/summer I check for ticks every time they go out. When we go on walks, I am always diligent when we pass another dog. If my dogs aren't up for walks, especially my senior dog, we go out into the backyard and play fetch or run around.

About: I have two dogs with two different personalities one a pit and one a golden retriever. I’ve had my golden retriever since he was a baby and always take care of Him and his special diet and his special walking I bathe him and take care of him any type of way. I love animals with all my heart I go to school from 7am-1pm so after that time I am free. im an active person so I love to spend quality time with dogs and animals I have 2 very friendly dogs. My back yard isn’t fenced in but we do have 50ft to 100ft leashes for them to be able to play outside

“Elizabeth did a great job watching our two labs (one is a puppy!) at our home. She was very easy going and easy to work with. When we got home the dogs were happy and quite tired! I would definitely use Elizabeth again!”

“This is my first time using Rover or requesting dog sitting and I wasn’t sure if someone would care for not 2, but 3 little dogs for one day… especially my first dog who barks anlot and is reactive a lot to the point when I worry he may not like anyone except family. Well, color me surprised when Drake came to meet and great the day before the booking and my 1yr Chipin took a quick liking to him and the other two! Drake was very professional and kept me up to date on the dogs and didn’t hesitate to ask questions and reply in a timely manner . He respected not only me, but my dogs and home. He was very flexible if something came up on my end and I appreciate the photo updates of my dogs snuggling up with him because I knew they were taken well care for. Thank you again and I will definitely hire again!”

“Julia was fantastic!!! We had great communication from the start, which made me feel oh so comfortable leaving our beloved new puppy in Julia’s very capable and loving hands!! Our puppy adores Julia and we will definitely be having her back to pet sit again. Julia was so lovely and kind every step of the way, and she even found and carefully removed 2 ticks from our little pup. She truly cares!! Thank you, Julia!! Can’t wait to have you back soon :).”

“Carol is simply the best sitter I’ve ever used! She is so caring, kind and accommodating and provides sweet updates for my girl. I know that Harper is in excellent hands with her and will be so well taken care of. She loves the dogs like her own and will be SO missed after her move!!! Thank you 🥰”

About: I had a childhood cat named Sophie since I was born. We grew up together and she was definitely the reason I knew I wanted to work with animals because I enjoyed helping them so much. I have experience in an extremely busy environment both at an ER and at a dog daycare. I loved working at the Vet and can’t wait to get back to it! I’m on a break from school and want to keep working with animals but give myself a small break from schoolwork and animals are the best mental health tool. I can’t wait to get to know your baby and create a safe, fun and loving environment for them. I am currently on a break from college until I go do my practicum experience at Penn vet hospital is philly. I’m not working during the days right now, I spend them with my cat and would enjoy having a fun baby to take a walk with or just play with! I have a long haired tuxedo cat named juliet. When i’m home from school we have a lot of fun during the day since my family works. She’s so sweet and never fails to make me laugh or to catch random zoomies mid nap. I feed her in the mornings and clean her litter box during the day.
“We just came back from our first vacation in years and Jessica was a huge reason our trip was great. We have two dogs we care deeply for and boarding them for just a weekend was stressful… and expensive! Our older dog has incredible anxiety every time we leave. So we decided to give Rover a try and we’re very happy we did. We met with a couple of sitters before our trip and Jessica impressed us with her flexibility and professionalism so we asked her to dogsit for the three nights we were away. She was great with our dogs and cared for them the way we wanted. In addition, she sent us pictures and texts with updates on the dogs. She made a great impression and completely sold us on Rover. I now feel confident that we can take more relaxing vacations knowing how well she took care of our dogs! I couldn’t have asked for more.”

“Mylinda was very professional and had a great way with both Ella and Milo (dog and cat). She left my home better than when she arrived and most importantly shared photos of my furry friends while I was away. Highly recommend her. K”

“Michelle stayed at our house for two nights to watch our dogs and was absolutely fantastic. She kept us up-to-date with pictures and videos and followed our instructions perfectly. Would recommend Michelle to anyone!”


About: I have experience with taking care of my pets for years. I also have been trusted to cat sit and dog sit for my friends. I love animals and being able to help out! I work at a summer camp so I have great availability especially in evenings if a family won’t be home late to take a dog on a walk or feed them. I also have weekends available if families go on vacation and need a pet sitter! My cats are very comfortable at home and they are spoiled! I will make sure that your pet is appreciated and given lots of attention. I will make sure that their needs are cared for and that they can gain my trust as a pet sitter.
“Immediately after meeting Hector, we knew he'd be a great fit. Both dogs loved him, even the one who can be a bit particular and moody. He gave regular updates with great pics, was happy to reinforce training and commands we use, and it was everything we could have asked for. As a bonus he has a ton of experience with dogs as he runs a local dog kennel! Highly recommend and will be booking Hector in the future.”

About: I have raised dogs, cats, a turtle, and parakeets since I was the size of a puppy, and I’ve treasured every minute of the experience. I’m always looking for ways to improve the lives of all animals I share a space with, from brushing teeth and giving baths to hiking and basic training - plus plenty of scratches and love. I'm currently working part-time, with a ton of availability for you and your pet family! Nights, weekends, even potentially some holidays are all on the table. I am an attentive and caring pet owner, and an animal lover in general, and am happy to suit your loved one’s needs and tempo. I’ve been around many different animal personalities in my life, and am well adjusted to frequent walks and attention, as well as capable of handling minor first aid should the need arise.
“We really hit the jackpot with Sydney! She is so kind and patient with my dog. She really went above and beyond in caring for him - I am so impressed! Sydney checked in to sent updates and asked questions when necessary. We will definitely use Sydney again in the future!”

“Cara watched my needy German Shepherd for about a week in my home. She did a good job communicating with me and reassuring me that Dexter was happy and very well cared for. Thank you so much, Cara! I will be calling on you again.”

About: I have had owned four pups since I was a kid and I have such a passion for them! I believe they deserve a healthy life style so walking and playing with them is a must and I can help achieve that if you have a busy lifestyle. I am home almost all weekends and in the afternoon-evening hours on weekdays and will absolutely LOVE to take care of your bundles of joys. I have experience with senior dogs because I have provided care for two of my own dogs all the way up to their passing from old age. I am looking forward to learning about your own pup and I am excited to work with you to bring out the best in your dog! As a Rover pet sitter, pet care is a central part of my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they get consistent attention, exercise, and affection. Daily responsibilities typically include feeding according to each pet’s routine, refreshing water, walks or playtime, administering medication if needed, and making sure pets feel comfortable and secure in their environment. I also provide updates, photos, and notes to owners so they feel connected while they’re away. On a weekly basis, I balance multiple bookings by organizing my calendar in advance, allowing enough time for each visit without rushing. I build in flexibility for pets with special needs or extra energy and always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and reliability. Caring for pets isn’t something I fit in around my life; it’s something I intentionally structure my life around to ensure every pet receives attentive, dependable care. I prioritize consistency and respect for the pet’s familiar surroundings. I stick closely to their established schedule for meals, walks, litter box or yard breaks, and exercise. I also handle basic home care related to the pet, such as cleaning bowls, scooping litter, and bringing in packages if requested. Throughout the visit, I provide updates and photos so owners have peace of mind knowing their pets are comfortable and happy in their own home. No matter the service, I focus on safety, routine, and personalized attention to meet each pet’s individual needs.

Ashley did an amazing job dog sitting Robin!! She has great communication skills and sent so many good photos. This was our first time going on a long vacation without Robin so I was a little anxious about leaving her but she was in great hands with Ashley! She also did some care for my bearded dragon & followed those instructions perfectly! 10/10 would recommend:)

Brianna took such great care of my dog! She asked great questions during the meet and greet to get to know my dog’s personality. I could tell my pup was well cared for in my absence. She took her on walks, played with her, and gave her lots of pets and cuddles. I’d highly recommend Brianna!
