“Keisha was great! She watched our 2 doodles, one with a bit of an attitude! She sent texts when she had questions and sent us pictures. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Loved Daniela! She sent a ton of pictures and updates and our dogs were happy and healthy when we returned. She even bought our pup a (dog friendly) birthday cake for his 6th birthday. It was such a comfort knowing we had a dog lover staying in our house with our dogs so we were able to thoroughly enjoy our vacation.”
“Megan was so great! We got lots of pics and videos and our pups were happy and chill when we got back, even after it being too cold to go outside much. Will definitely call again - thanks!”
“Our pup Banzo loved having Lynette care for him. She was very communicative, great with our dog and a super respectful house guest. We will definitely want to use her in the future!”
“Elizabeth was wonderful! Our pups were well loved and safe. She was trustworthy and went above and beyond to make sure the house was left in excellent condition. We look forward to having her back.”
About: Hello! I am a dog lover through and through, as I’ve spent much of my life caring for my own pups and dog sitting for friends and family. I also worked at a doggy daycare for a little over a year, where I was responsible for managing large groups of dogs. We regularly fed, trained, and administered a variety of meds to the dogs in our care. I had the opportunity to work with many different dogs as well, from senior dogs with special needs to young, energetic puppies of all sizes! I have always been extremely passionate about understanding dog behaviors so that I can provide the best care for every pup :) I have a lot of time throughout the week to care for your pups! I’m available Mon-Fri and I can be flexible regarding timing. Most weekends are open for me as well—just communicate what is needed and I will try my best to make myself available :) I always provide a safe, comfortable environment at your home while sticking to a structured routine of potties, feeding, and/or any medication needs. I’ll do my best to ensure your pet feels relaxed and confident while you’re away!
“Lacey is great! She sent us pictures and updates every day & she followed our directions very well. She is so sweet and easy going & our dog was very happy and well trained when we got home.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Maiah and would absolutely recommend her. Our beagle can be a bit high-maintenance, but Maiah was so great with her. It gave us peace of mind knowing our pup was in trustworthy, kind, and capable hands. Maiah was also an excellent communicator--we received regular updates, photos, and quick responses, which made it easy to relax while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”
About: Ex restaurant owner turned private chef and animal sitter (what is this life?!). Love meeting all the silly kitties and playful doggies on this app. I have two cats and a pitbull puppy. I specialize in giving insulin if needed, medication/pills, and telling your cat/dog how pretty they are. Very flexible, wide open schedule right now! My schedule was limited to cat visits but now I’m open to pups now that my puppy isn’t as demanding of my time I have two very nice dog friendly cats and a crazy puppy!! I also have an empty room that fully set up for cat boarding! Tons of windows and couches
“Melissa is genuinely amazing. From the meet and greet to the moment we returned home, I’m so grateful and impressed by her. She kept our boys active and happy (and handled our big puppy so well!) Melissa communicated so well, and we returned to the house just as we left it. Highly recommend Melissa. She really cares about the dogs and making you feel comfortable while you’re away.”
“Alex is great with animals, respectful, kind, caring and compassionate. She is great with communication and made me feel like my pets were being well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Brianna was a very attentive dog sitter to our high energy pup! She was also very good about letting us know when Sloane acted up so that we could help her handle the situation! Such a great house guest! She even stripped the bed!”
“Marilia is the best! Our cat and dog love her. She is always reliable, and always a pleasure to work with. She's our first option for all house and animal sitting.”
“Julianna Stayed in my house for five nights/six days and took excellent care of my large, high-energy Siberian Husky. It can be hard to find a trustworthy house/dog sitter sitter outside of personal friends and family, but I couldn’t have been more satisfied.”
“Our family had recently experienced a loss of our other pet. It was a tough time for travel but Jessica supported our other pet while we were away. She kept us informed and made the world of difference being away during such a difficult time.”
About: I’ve had animals my entire life, including birds, gerbils, cats, and dogs, which has given me a deep understanding of their needs and personalities. I currently have a kitty, and after recently losing my other cat, I feel even more inspired to channel my love and care into other animals. My experiences have taught me how to provide companionship and meet the needs of pets, making me a compassionate and reliable caretaker and dog walker.

I currently have a kitty, and after recently losing my other cat, I feel even more inspired to channel my love and care into other animals. My experiences have taught me how to provide companionship, meet their needs, and use proper training methods with plenty of patience. I prioritize your animals’ well-being, treating them as my own, and ensuring they return home safe, happy, and tired from play. As a compassionate and reliable caretaker and dog walker, I am dedicated to giving your pets the care they deserve. While I can’t take animals to my apartment, I’m happy to offer long check-ins and daily walks. As a dog walker, I’ll tailor walks to suit your dog’s breed and energy level, making sure they get the right amount of exercise. I live in a lively neighborhood and would love the opportunity to have a furry friend join me on my daily strolls, giving them fresh air, exercise, and plenty of attention!
“Nikki was an amazing sitter for our pup! She had great communication throughout the entire process, and made me feel very at ease during our time away. Nikki was a gracious house guest as well. 10/10 would book again!”
“I booked house sitting with Blythe because pet hotels stress my senior baby out. Blythe went above and beyond taking care of my senior baby. She did everything I asked and more. She updated me with pictures and my baby looked very comfy and happy. The whole process was very smooth and stress free. I will definitely be booking with Blythe again and recommend you do as well!”
Polonia pet parents share their Rover experiences
Eleanor is amazing! She spent all holiday weekend with our two senior dogs and two cats and helped guide the pups through fireworks and thunderstorms. She left the house in great condition and the crew was calm and happy when we got home! We highly recommend Eleanor, 10-10! 🐈🦮💜
I don't want to leave too positive a review (even though it is 100% warranted) because the last time I did that our sitter got so busy we are not able to book them anymore. All joking aside, Sara was beyond wonderful. She provided us with updates (even during a major storm), pictures and most importantly to us, she went above and beyond with our taking care of our post surgical Ollie who is needing a lot of extra care.
Lynette did an amazing job watching our two pups, Roger and Cruise, in our home! She sent sweet updates with pictures, responded promptly to messages, and kept everything with the dogs and the house running smoothly while we were away. We came back to a clean home and happy pets, a credit to her care and professionalism. Definitely recommend. Thank you, Lynette!!
Sonia and Alex did an absolutely excellent job caring for my dog. He is developmentally delayed, requires daily medication, and is incontinent, so his care takes extra attention and patience. Throughout the 6 days he was with them, they communicated promptly and openly about any challenges that came up, and together we were able to make simple adjustments to ensure his stay was comfortable and successful. They sent pictures frequently, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. From every photo, it was clear that my dog was happy, well cared for, and comfortable in their care. I am incredibly grateful for the compassion, flexibility, and attentiveness Sonia and Alex showed, and I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone—especially those with pets who have special needs.
Steely my dog was in great hands with Megan. He was very happy to see her when she came back after the meet and greet. She kept me up to date regularly and sent me multiple pictures a day which made me feel so good being away. She asked appropriate questions regarding his care instructions. Also the residents in my 55 and over apartment building were very complimentary about her. I would absolutely have her take care of my boy again. Thank you Megan!🩷
Tanya was fantastic with my crazy dogs! She went above and beyond in communication and made us feel so comfortable leaving our dogs for a few days. Our dogs required special care and minimal time alone and Tanya accommodated all requests. We will be using her every time we need a dog sitter! Highly recommend.
Taylor took care of my son (Zipp) during the winter in Wisconsin. You can tell Taylor loves dogs, he sent me videos playing with Zipp and taking him for walks in the snow. Thank you Taylor! I would book again!!! Zipp was so happy when we got home, on the couch like we never left 💕
This was our first time using Alex to watch our pets and it won’t be the last! He did a great job with our two dogs and three cats and taking care of our home. He kept us updated regularly and sent us photos. He was very respectful of our home! I would definitely recommend Alex and will be using him in the future!
Tori stayed in our home for a few nights to take care of our pup. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing that our pup was in good hands. She was kind, caring and communicative. Sent photos and updates daily. She took great care of our pup and our home as well. I would definitely recommend!
IGNORE THE BAD REVIEW - that guy’s a doo-doo face… Sawyer clearly loves dogs and communicates just fine! I tend to over communicate and he had no problem responding to all my messages. I love getting all the pic updates, too! He’s experienced and my handsome staffy boy took to him immediately! My dog can be a handful on a leash and around other dogs but he must have handled him just fine because no bad reports! 💯 recommend Sawyer! 👍
