“Kellen was very good to Hamilton and went above and beyond. He sent updates and pictures every night and contacted me with questions. It was an added bonus that he lives in our neighborhood. Would use again.”
“Olivia was wonderful with our two dogs. One of our dogs is high energy and she took the time to understand his needs. We got daily updates with photos and videos. She was very responsive and we could tell our dogs were loved on while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“We are so grateful to have found Samantha! She did a meet and greet to meet our dog and cats, and the day of our vacation she came over before we left. Our dog ran over to her and wagged his tail so happy to see her. She did a great job of communicating throughout each day and sent a lot of pictures which I liked. When we returned, all of the pets were happy, had clean dishes and litter boxes, and our home was as if we never left. We’ll definitely be using Samantha again and highly recommend!”
“Izzy picked up our request for a sitter at the last minute after another sitter cancelled. She took excellent care of our dog Wrigley and we had no complaints. She communicated with us and sent pictures as requested. Definitely recommend her.”
“Jazzlyn was the best! I’d highly recommend her and would definitely book with her again! She spent the week with our boys. Both were well taken care of, happy, and loved the entire time. Jazzlyn was a great communicator and we received daily updates and pics.”
“We had a great experience with Rachel! She came to our hotel and stayed with our Luca, for about four hours while we were out. She walked him, kept him hydrated, and made sure he was entertained the entire time. She was so sweet and gentle with him—truly wonderful. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Amanda was a great sitter for our zoo of animals. She had her hands full with puppy energy and multiple cats and dogs. She provided pictures throughout our trip and communicated quickly even before our trip for our pre-trip introduction.”
“Kayla is the best dog sitter I’ve ever had! We had just moved into the area, so I didn’t know anyone who could watch my baby (dog), Charlie. I was a little nervous originally to leave him with someone new. However, we met Kayla prior to the dog sitting and really liked her so felt very comfortable with having Kayla watch Charlie. She did such a fantastic job- I couldn’t have asked for anyone better. She was able to stay with Charlie for as long as we needed, gave me frequent updates (and pictures/videos 😍), did everything that I had suggested but didn’t necessarily expect to do in one day-play games with him, walk him, and give him treats. She also followed all of my directions which I really appreciate. Kayla gave my guy so much love and attention, I didn’t even feel guilty for leaving him. He was in great hands! Kayla was the perfect sitter for us and I will be for sure requesting her again for any other needs in the future.”
“We were looking for someone to not only treat our pets as their own but someone we could trust and feel comfortable having them house set with our pets. We were fortunate enough to find that in Wendy. She’s thoughtful, conscientious, and friendly. She took good care of our pets and provided updates throughout the week. She gets 5 stars from us. We will definitely use her again.”
“Lauren was awesome! She demonstrated during our meet and greet that she had thoroughly read our bio, which made things much easier. She asked thoughtful questions to make sure she was prepared. She communicated throughout her stay and was flexible with start and end times. The dogs clearly took a real liking to her and enjoyed being with her. When we got home, our house was spotless and the dogs had been very well taken care of! I highly recommend Lauren!”
“Mary was so easy to work with! She offered a meet and greet prior to her house sitting for us. She was very respectful of our home and gave us daily updates and pictures to make sure we knew our dog was comfortable and doing well. She was very flexible and willing to give medication that we didn’t anticipate our dog needing to be on. Mary did a fantastic job and put us at ease while we were away for a week. So glad we found her!”
“Scott did great with remmie! Took him on a walk everyday. Snuggled and stayed with Remmie as much as he could so Remmie wasn’t alone. I loved he sent pictures everyday! I would definitely use him again.”
About: No discrimination here! I love all sizes, breeds, and ages. With over 20 years of experience, I have grown up with dogs pretty much my entire life. Your dog will be treated as if they were my own. We like to start and end every day with potty breaks along with atleast two walks per day. We allow your children to sit and sleep wherever they like. I am currently working full-time (about 15 minutes away from home), but my boyfriend (also a Rover sitter) works from home and can do daily potty breaks if needed.
“I have a very anxious pug, Ellie, she has a lot of quirks but Meghan was able to deal with all of them. She even said she “ had fun with both my dogs” I would recommend Meghan with a 5 star and will definitely use her again Thank you Meghan”
“Amelie truly came in clutch when another dog sitter canceled 5 days before my trip. I couldn't have asked for a better person! She was amazing with my HUGE grumpy older dog and my HYPER younger 2 year old...and did I mention they are Rotties?!! She was amazing from start to finish. This is truly the first time I came home from a trip and the dogs seemed well loved and taken care of, no anxiety from them at all. Thanks, Amelie! Rover friends, look no further and book her now...just not when I need her ; )”
“Liz is amazing with our two jackapoos Whiskey and Lager. She even sleeps in our bed rather than the guest room because it's more comfortable for are pups and changes the bed sheets for us. Liz sends tons of updates and pictures. They go for walks, get tons of playtime and tons of attention. Couldn't be happier. Almost hate to give her a great review because we are admittedly selfish and want to keep her for our fur babies. Already booking in July and August 😁”
