About: Iâve grown up around animals my entire life, and caring for pets has always been second nature to me. From an early age, my family had dogs of many different breeds, sizes, and personalities, which taught me how to adapt to each petâs unique needs. Today, Iâm a proud pet parent to a French Bulldog and a Bengal cat, so I truly understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone responsible, attentive, and loving. I know every pet has their own routine, quirks, and comfort zones; and I respect those fully. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well-loved while youâre away. I believe pets thrive when they feel safe, understood, and loved. Whether itâs a long walk, playtime, quiet companionship, or just sticking closely to their routine, I tailor my care to what your pet needs most. My goal is to provide loving, consistent in-home pet care so your pets feel comfortable, secure, and happy in their normal routine. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule to make sure pets receive consistent attention, proper care, and quality time throughout the day, not just quick check-ins. I plan my days around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and companionship, and I make sure each petâs routine is followed as closely as possible to what theyâre used to. Because Iâm already caring for my own dog and cat daily, adding pet sitting fits easy into my routine. Iâm dependable, organized, and intentional about being present, so pets in my care feel comfortable, secure, and well looked after from morning to evening. When caring for pets in their own home, my priority is keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, walk routines, playtime, and care instructions closely so pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I provide attentive companionship, regular potty breaks or walks, fresh food and water, litter care for cats, and plenty of affection based on each petâs personality. I also keep an eye on behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, and I communicate clearly with updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Iâm respectful of your home, dependable with schedules, and committed to providing calm, reliable, in-home care while youâre away.
âIt is always hard to leave my pets but Julia was so diligent about keeping me updated with pictures and videos that it made it easier. It was so nice to see how the fur babies were doing everyday. I'd feel confident having Julia back to house sit any time.â

About: Hi everyone, My names Ellana! Im currently 20 years old and absolutely adore animals! Iâve taken care of dogs since I was 7 years old and currently have a frenchie of my own back in MN! Being away from home can be tough at times but spending time with animals is really an escape for me. I love all dogs from big to small, I do have a little bias for all breeds of bulldogs though, they are my fav! I am currently looking into going into canine physical therapy as a full time role for my future:) Iâd love to help out as needed so please send me a message! I am a very active student so I love being able to give dogs the time outside that they need. That being said I am always willing to stay in for some cuddles. I have weekends off from all class and job requirements so I like to fill those times with some furry friends! I have my own room and plenty of space and capacity to take dogs on adventures via car or walk! I love spoiling pups when they are with me.
âParker was great. I have no doubt that my pups (and home) were well cared for while I was away. Parker also went the extra mile for me when unforeseen circumstances changed my travel plans. Knowing he was there gave me one less thing to worry about when everything turned upside-down. I'd definitely ask him to watch my dogs again. ?â

âMolly was amazing! She was our first non-family member to watch our puppy, and we couldnât have asked for a better experience. She was attentive, caring, and kept us updated with pictures throughout the day. It was clear our pup was in great hands and loved being with her. Weâll absolutely use Molly again in the future!â

âWe highly recommend Payton! He cared for our Goldendoodle, Oakley, and sent us pictures and video updates regularly. He stayed at our home and provided extra attention during a storm when our dog was anxious. Payton walked and played with Oakley every day and took him on car rides, one of his most favorite things to do. We will definitely book Payton again.â

âOther than our miscommunication about the arrival time (it was our first time having Ryan stay with the kids) he took great care of our Big Easy & Winnie! Thank you đŠľâ

âSara took great care of our dogs and our house. She was great at communicating, following their schedules, and ensuring they felt loved. She also ensured our house was just as we left it, which is appreciated. Thank you Sara! đžâ

âRhoda did such an amazing job taking care of my baby! She was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and really gave me peace of mind while traveling. She also kept my place very clean and was a great house sitter. I highly recommend Rhoda!!â

About: I am genuinely passionate about all animals. My priority is your fur baby well-being, and happiness and your happiness, while you have a piece of mine, during your absense. You will always have consistent communication during pet sitting sessions, including photos, messages, reassuring you that your dog is in great hands. I can come to your house and spend the night or your dog can come to my house and spend the night with my two friendly dogs. I have a huge fenced in yard. I consider myself not only responsible and reliable. While youâre away, I am a efficient personal assistant as well, not only as your pet Caregiver, I will also take care of your home .. water plants , taking in your mail and go grocery store so you can have food in the refrigerator when you return and even run your errands if needed.. are you sure you your dog will be fed and walked, and will be receiving much love and attention. If you want someone consistently punctual, and dependable. I am your girl.. I have a very flexible schedule to be available for your needs. If you choose for your dog to board at my house, they more than welcome. If you prefer house visit a few times a day I do that as well as Pet Sitting at your house Weekdays and weekends. I have a large fenced in backyard, which allows your dog to have FreePlay outdoors and run. Your dog can be created inside my home if you. I have two dogs that are super friendly and love to make friends. I walk the dogs three times a day and definitely get to go out in the backyard for FreePlay multiple times a day as well .
âRecently traveled out of state, and had to scramble to find a sitter for my dog and cat. Having never used a service like Rover I rightfully skeptical. I am so happy I connected with Devynn, from the first moment I met her I felt at ease about the decision, and I could tell my dog Peggy, cat Stella felt the same. Devynn kept me posted with photos the whole time and was super communicative, it was very apparent she looked after them like they were her own! Thank you again Devynn đâ

âI couldnât be happier with Kailee and the care my cats, Fiona and Phoebe, received! She was incredibly responsive and responsible, and I truly felt at ease knowing my kittens were in such good hands. Kailee was sweet and caring, took the time to play with them, and sent regular photo updates where you could clearly see how happy and comfortable they were. It was obvious she really connected with them â even my more reserved cat warmed up to her quickly! I will absolutely reach out to her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and trustworthy cat sitter.â

âChristian is absolutely WONDERFUL! Heâs such a pleasure - heâs kind and you can rest easily knowing heâll treat your pup like theyâre his own 𼚠Heâs so polite and respectful and keeps in touch. I felt very comfortable with him and he and my pup are new best friends!!!â

âIt takes a village and this sweet family made sure my boys were loved and cared for! First time using Rover and I hit the jackpot in caretakers!â

âAllyson is so kind and great with our pups. When we travel and she stays with them, itâs great communication and updates and I know both of them and my home is well taken care of. I used her several times and sheâs my first choice for a caregiverâ

âAs always Ronnie has been amazing! I will not book with anyone else because my babies are always happy when I get home. Ronnie goes over and above and sends updates everyday throughout the day!â

Plaza Terrace pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had such a great experience with Andrea! She was communicative and clearly cared about our pets like they were her own. We got regular updates with photos, and she asked questions when needed that gave us total peace of mind while we were away for the night. She went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and well taken care of. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely great with animals!

Christian is fantastic. He stayed with our two dogs for the first time and right away, made me feel at ease. He is quick to respond, very cooperative, polite and itâs evident he really loves animals. I would recommend Christian to anyone in need and will definitely ask him to return!

We are truly grateful to Peyton for the excellent care he provided to our two dogs. Both my husband and I felt very calm and secure during our trip, knowing they were in such good hands. Peyton was always attentive, loving, and responsible. He kept us updated regularly on how they were doing, which gave us great peace of mind. Itâs clear that he is a kind, respectful person with a genuine love for animals. When we returned, our dogs were calm, not anxious or distressed, which showed us they had been well cared for. We will definitely use Peytonâs services again and highly recommend him with complete confidence.

Julia and Eric stayed at my home with my three dogs while I was on vacation with my family. They were my ideal type of sitters! Sent lots of videos and photos, great communicators, and left our house in perfect shape. I never worried about my pups once while I was gone! Will definitely be booking with them again!

Brooke really came through for us in a pinch! After our original sitter cancelled last minute, Brooke was quick to respond and coordinate the booking. She has been very flexible, responsive and professional the whole way through. We have two high energy dogs and she knew exactly how to handle them. Our pups had such a great time with her!

Benny loves Aprilânuff said! We are so grateful to April for taking care of our dog during Christmas week. She was incredibly detail-oriented and attentive to the specific needs of our senior dog Benny, which gave us great peace of mind. We definitely plan on using her services again in the future!

Our family is so grateful for Landis and the care and commitment he showed while staying with our Luthor. Having someone competent and focused to housesit gave us peace of mind and enabled us to enjoy our trip to be with family for Christmas. Landis sent great updates with cute pictures throughout! Landis truly cares for animals and has a special ability to understand and connect with them. He is able to adapt to changing needs and environments while providing outstanding care and attention. So thankful for Landis and thrilled to have someone we can count on and trust!

This was our first time having a Rover sitter stay in our home and we had a great experience with Jaden! Both of our pets were immediately very comfortable around her, including our normally shy cat. She sent us plenty of pictures and updates and I could tell my pets were well cared for. Jaden was also very respectful of our home, leaving it neat and tidy. We will definitely book with her again in the future!

Emrick is an awesome dog sitter. She is a great communicator and went above and beyond to care for our dog. Receiving updates gave me piece of mind that our dog was doing well while we were out of town. Our original return flight was cancelled and she ensured that our dog was taken care of until we came back. I wholeheartedly recommend her and would love to have her watch our dog again.

LIS IS PEEFECT!!! I would like to thank her out loud!! She took extremely great care of my baby and our home. Lis is very attentive and timely She sent me picture mail multiple times a day and my pup smiled in every picture. Anytime I need a sitter I will be booking herâĽď¸ 10's across the board thank you again, darling!!!

Olivia did a great job. My dogs were well taken care of. House was clean she even washed the sheets and made up her bed. I will use her again if I need a house/dog sitter I would 100 % recommend her This was my 1 st experience with Rover and I was very satisfied
