“Mark was awesome. Miss Molly got lots of walks & apparently behaved herself. My house was spotless when I got home. Mark sent lots of pictures. I am confident Mark is trustworthy and loves animals. Sure hope he is available when I need to travel!”

“Great experience with Allegra. She took excellent care of my pups and kept the house spotless. The dogs were in such a good mood when I returned, which tells me everything I need to know. Will definitely book again!”

“This is my first time using Rover and Jordyn exceeded my expectations. Jordyn was the perfect fit for my two French bulldogs. She always communicated throughout the day to let me know how they were doing & even sent photos. I would highly recommend her and I look forward to using her again for our next trip.”

“Yuliia we cannot recommend enough!! She is incredible in what she does. She is very attentive in making sure to take care of our dog in a great way and asking all the correct questions that made us feel extremely comfortable ans confident in letting her watch our sweet boy! Thank you so much Yuliia for being so kind, caring and such a good carer of our dog!”

“Grace was great! She was responsive, sent videos and pictures, and made me feel comfortable. My dog got sick before we left town and she was sensitive and kind and gave extra attention. We will have her again the next time we go out of town.”

“Jill is always a phenomenal sitter for our dog!”

“Megan was amazing! We've never had a more understanding sitter. Even after our plans changed (too many times to count), Megan was awesome and helpful and extremely responsive. We got tons of photos and the dogs looked very happy. Definitely book her!”

About: I have experience with dogs since a very young age, they have always truly been my best friends. I have fostering experience & have cared for mother dogs, witnessed birth, and taken care of their newborns. I live in an apartment with my boyfriend and our two cats and toy cockapoo, we are open to dog boarding and sitting! Please keep in mind when requesting us, I do work full time M-F 8-4:30p and my boyfriend works full time M-Th and every other weekend until 2:30 or 3pm, so our best availability is evenings, weekends, and overnight sittings. We look forward to meeting your precious fur babies!

“Lauren was awesome - both of our dogs loved having her stay at the house. Her communication was crystal clear and she was very responsive...she also sent plenty of pictures of our pups. Highly recommended!!!”

“Judith and Cynthia did a great job looking after our two 'giant' dogs (St. Bernard & Mastiff) for a long weekend. They were prompt, sent out updates and pcitures every day, and generally made us feel comfortable that our pups were being well taken care of. This was our first foray into getting a Rover sitter, and while we were nervous, they made it less stressful.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Currently live with 2 dogs and 2 cats, and my family has 3 other dogs! I’ve dog-sat for many years, both staying at homes and frequently checking in. I have a natural way of connecting with animals, and I love spending time with them! During the summer, I will have availability to walk dogs, let dogs out, and care for pets during the day and evenings on weekdays. June weekdays I am available after 12, and July weekdays I am available all day. Weekend availability is not consistent throughout the summer. I live with two dogs and two cats. I walk the dogs frequently, feed them breakfast and dinner, and keep their spaces clean and safe! I monitor pets as they chew on toys, and throw away toys that could be dangerous. Managing 4 pets is a handful, but I love it!

About: I currently own three dogs, and have had at least one dog for around 7 years. I have also taken care of pets for family friends and neighbors since even before that. I frequently take my dogs for walks, and I have no allergies to any dog or cat breeds. I am looking to get a summer position so be aware that this could change but currently I am very free and flexible just about whenever you need me. I'm able to take your dogs for plenty of walks and give them plenty of playtime as necessary. Ideally I would prefer to care for your pets in your home, but I can also do in my house if desired. I have 3 dogs that could keep yours company, and they are very sweet as well as decently small. I also have a fully fenced backyard to play in and a spare crate if necessary, although it is only big enough to hold a pet of around 15 pounds or so.

“Abigail was an amazing dog sitter for our little rescue dog. He can be a tricky one with lots of separation anxiety, but Abigail was such a great support and comfort to him. She was very communicative and tried everything she could to make sure he was happy and healthy. She went above and beyond and we are so thankful to have had her as our sitter!”

“Jacqueline took good care of my Jojo while I had to be on a work trip. She always communicated with me, sent pictures, and Jojo enjoyed being with her. Jojo is a reactive dog, and Jacqueline handled it well. I definitely recommend Jacqueline for dogwalking, sitting, etc!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals throughout my whole life and using Rover since the middle of 2022. I don’t have any pets of my own and my home is quiet and peaceful. My genuine love for animals, experience with various breeds and special needs, beautifully fenced in yard by the water, and emphasis on love and patience collectively set me apart as a dog sitter who provides exceptional care and creates a loving environment for the dogs entrusted to me. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet so I can meet your pup and you can see how much fun we’ll have together! I like to start the day with a quick potty break followed by some playful yard time to get the wiggles out, then it’s straight to breakfast. During the day we’ll stroll around the neighborhood, and sniff out some new spots. By evening it’s all about winding down, cozy vibes, and a yummy dinner to wrap up a tail-wagging day! I care for pets by observing their behavior, exercise, play, walks, and snuggles. Please bring along any favorite toys, crate, blankets, or other comfort items they love.

“Ashlee was wonderful! My pups were well taken care of and she sent me lots of pics and videos so I knew they were in good hands the whole time.”

“Scott is a reliable and loving dog and house sitter. Going above and beyond, he even helped with some household tasks while I was away! More importantly, he cared for my dogs as if they were his own, he even was able to win over the more difficult of the two dogs. He was able to patiently manage their more difficult qualities, like leash aggressiveness, and trash picking. I received daily updates and photos, putting me at ease. I confidently recommend Scott, and will be a repeat customer.”

“Ida is the best dog sitter ever! She is attentive to my two dogs and is genuinely interested in their well-being. She sends lots of pictures, is great about walks and play time, and overall does a fantastic job. Unlike other sitters I've had, she leaves my home spotless and is willing to take care of a few other chores, like watering the flowers when the temps outside hit triple digits. When I'm away, I know my dogs are happy and well cared for with Ida. Thank you!”

“Kylee is very knowledgeable and experienced with animals. She was flexible and accommodating with my pets' various needs (2 dogs and 2 cats, 2 of whom are senior with health conditions and special dietary and supplement needs). Everything was kept clean and she was communicative throughout. All of our pets were happy and relaxed upon our return. I highly recommend Kylee and her team!”
