“Jenna was very accommodating to our last minute need for a sitter. We have two fairly large dogs and she got a long great with both! She was punctual and sent photos daily. I would absolutely use Jenna again.”
“Shelbie is the best pet sitter we’ve ever had! Very communicative, sent pictures of our dogs, and followed all care instructions. Definitely recommend!”
“Finding Ashley was a HUGE relief. This is our first time using Rover and leaving our pets and home to a sitter. Throughout the process Ashley provided excellent communication and comfort. Our animals and home were well taken care of. We’ve already arrange two additional services with her. Thank you for everything Ashley!”
“Nikky was great with Artemis & Apollo! Plenty of updates - I’ll definitely book with her again.”
“Vera is always so great with my Marble! She always sends me pictures and videos of him which help get me through my duty days! It makes me happy knowing he's well taken care of while I'm unable to!”
“Anna did wonderful with my cane corso, Saphira and Saphira really enjoyed her time with Anna as well. Anna followed all of our instructions and kept me updated throughout the day with lovely pictures. I would recommend Anna and will be using her in the future.”
“She was very communicative! Sent lots of photos! Fast response! And had lots of cuddles and walks with our bigger dog! Definitely will be rebooking with her in the future!”
“Ehlaura was wonderful! Kept us updated during the stay and we came home to happy and healthy boys which is our number one priority. Already have Ehlaura booked for a future sitting!”
“Kathryn was fantastic, and I would highly recommend her to anyone. We have two dogs, one of which can be very nervous. Kathryn came over before our trip and made sure to befriend (Shadow, the anxious dog) even before we left to help make the transition smooth. She walked the dogs while we were away, sent us pictures of them, and was clean. Great experience overall. We will for sure be using her again in the future! 10/10 stars”
“Sara was great! We left our Nailah home for a night while we went on a trip and she took good care of her. She sent pictures as well as updates while we were gone and our Nailah really seemed to love her. Would highly recommend 10/10”
“David did a great job caring for our pups, and handled some extra responsibility at the last minute very well. I would definitely recommend him!”

“Robin was absolutely wonderful. She is so patient, kind and attentive. The care she gave our old, sweet girl was impeccable. We recommend her wholeheartedly ❤️ Thank you, Robin!”
“Elena took great care of Charlie while we went out of town for a night. There was some miscommunication at the end where she stayed past the time we had her booked for - I think she wanted to make sure we got back first to ensure Charlie was taken care of while we booked knowing we would likely be home past that time. I’m glad we were only back 30 mins after she was scheduled for!”
“Trenton was an absolute lifesaver! We’ve had some disappointing experiences with sitters on this app recently ranging from not following instructions to doing quick 30-minute drop-ins when we specifically requested house sitting. Trent completely restored our faith in Rover. He followed all of our instructions to the letter, took excellent care of our dog Thor, and even kept our home clean and organized, something we haven’t experienced with past sitters. We truly appreciate his reliability and professionalism. We will most definitely continue using his services.”
“Samantha was great with my Pug, Benji, right from the start. We did a meet and greet at Yorktown beach and she was a natural from the start! She even walked Benji for me while we got to know each other. Samantha is trustworthy and caring when it comes to our furry little animals that we treat like our own kids. I will definitely be using her services again in the future. Thank you Samantha!”
“Myah took care of my dogs on somewhat short notice and did great. i got lots of pictures of the dogs on their walks, and getting treats. it made my vacation easier knowing they were well taken care of and having a good time. 10/10 would use again”
“Cheyenne was a great help when we needed a very last minute in-home pet sitter for our dog! She was communicative and very sweet with our pup. We could tell he was well cared for, as was our home!”
“Keyana is amazing with our dogs. She has become our number 1 dog sitter. She is extremely gentle and loving with our two elderly dogs. We get daily communication and pictures during our time away! Makes traveling less stressful knowing our two dogs are being cared for by such a huge pet lover!!!”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life of all sizes. From chihuahua's to Newfoundlands and everything in between I love all types of dogs! My dogs are like my kids so if you ever hear me talking about my kids I am referring to my dogs. :) If your dog is mellow or hyper I am more then willing to fit the needs they require. I am home full time so your pup will always have whatever they need as my schedule is flexible. If your pet has depression or anxiety I will take the extra time needed with them to make them feel comfortable and calm while you’re away! I know how important your pets are to you, they are not just pets they are family and I wouldn't treat them any other way! *I am open too pet sitting outside the area Rover makes us sitters set. The only cost adjustment will be for gas and possible travel time depending on distance. This is more than just a part time job too me. Caring for pets is a passion and is something I enjoy. The experience you and your pets have is of the up most importance. I will ask a lot of questions about your pets daily routines, things they like and don’t like. This is important because it helps your animals be less stressed if they are sticking to a routine they are used too. This also helps me to understand them better which increases quality of care.
