“I had to go out of town unexpectedly and had never used a pet sitter before. Jaden responded almost immediately after I messaged on Tuesday, came for a meet and greet on Wednesday, and was sitting with my dog and cats on Thursday. My dog is very suspicious of everything, and not having used a pet sitter before, I was concerned on how she would react. Jaden was very patient with her. He also kept me updated with pictures and messages on how things were progressing, which made me feel much better. I couldn’t be more pleased with how he cared for my pets and would definitely contact him. Thanks Jaden!”

“Keira did a great job with our Oliver, who just snuggled right up with her. I would highly recommend Keira for watching your pet, we will definitely be a repeat customer!”


About: I’ve been around animals since I was little. From indoor pets to farms. I’m definitely an animal person. I have raised animals, and I have watched animals take their last breath. They deserve the world. I work a full time job but I don’t mind taking care of your animals before and after work. Honestly, I love animals so much that whatever needs to be done, I will do. I have two cats and I treat them like my children. They are very much so velcro cats, but I love it that way. Getting trust with animals is very important.

“Sydney was amazing with my dogs. She kept in contact with me while she was watching them and sent me so many pictures! So friendly and great communication. I would love to have her back to watch them anytime!!”

“Evan did such a great job watching our dogs today! This was our first time having him stay with them in our home and he made the whole day so much less stressful for us. He kept us updated with messages and pictures throughout the day, made sure everyone went outside and was comfortable. You can tell he genuinely enjoys animals and cared about making sure they were happy and relaxed. He was also really respectful of our home and even offered to help with chores before leaving which was so thoughtful. We came home to happy pups and would absolutely have Evan watch them again!”

“Kayla was amazing, this was our first time using the app and it was such an amazing experience. She stayed with Rosco while I had to go into the office. She played with him, fed him, and took him outside. She was also sending updates throughout the day and pictures. I would definitely recommend her to anyone. I will definitely reach out to her again in the future to help us with our boy Rosco.”

“Sadie is amazing! She took my pet sitting request with short notice and was very easy to work with. She made sure to keep me up to date with detailed messages during her time sitting my kitten and even sent me pictures showing him being comfortable and playful around her. She also went above and beyond and did extra things around the house which I appreciated very much. She’s very respectful and professional. I will definitely request her again for my next pet sitting. Thanks Sadie!”

“Becky was so great with our senior dog and three overly friendly kitties while we were on vacation. She didn’t hesitate to reach out with questions and sent tons of updates and pictures. Our critters were so happy and well cared for. She gave us peace of mind and we are so grateful to have found her! Thank you a million times, Becky!”

“Andy was great! She stayed at our house for a week and even cleaned and organized while she was there. Our dogs were very happy and didn’t seem to notice we were even gone. 10/10 would recommend.”


About: I've taken care of young and old dogs. I've watched family pets for years and have spent a lot of care on specialized research around animals to ensure I give them the best care I can. I love to play with them, never get bored of watching them and ass I started I pay a lot of attention to detail. I can pick up on all those little details in dogs that many sitters will miss. You could not leave your dog with a safer host. I have a very flexible and open schedule right now. I am willing to work whenever and can plan around caring for your pet. It will be my number one priority. I have an apartment that is free of pets right now so I have the space give your pet some extra room without disruption while they stay with me
“Allyson did an amazing job taking care of Moo Moo for us while we were away. I gave her a lot of advanced warning about Moo Moo not being friendly with other dogs and she followed the proper protocol necessary in order to keep Moo Moo safe. Allyson also left the house in the same condition we left it in. We would definitely book with her again in the future.”

“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 ; )”

“She is the best pet sitter we have ever had. We never worry about the care and love our dogs will receive while we are away. She always sends a lot of pictures and videos and daily notes about each day they spend with her. If your dogs are everything to you and you miss them every second you’re away from them then Shelby will give you peace of mind with her gentle and loving care. She is also great with older animals or ones needing special medical care. You won’t regret hiring her for the care of your beloved animal companion.”

Progress pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jessica has watched our dogs twice now, and they love her! We have extremely attached dogs, and being able to leave them with a reliable sitter they feel comfortable with is such a relief. Our older dog has a bad habit of finding paper to tear up when he’s stressed, but he was the calmest we’ve ever seen him after being away from us for multiple days. Jessica is very communicative and straightforward, we’re beyond grateful to have found someone so reliable and dedicated to the welfare of our pets!

Jada watched my dogs for me at the last minute after I had someone else cancel. She was great! I have 4 Alaskan Malamutes who can be pretty stubborn. Not everyone is willing to take care of 4 dogs of their size but she did with no issues. She provided several pictures a day. 5 stars will definitely use again and recommend! Thank you soooooo much!

Anele is a great pet and house sitter. I appreciated that she reached out to schedule meeting both my cat and me beforehand. Allowed everyone to get to know each other. She’s very conscientious of following instructions and timeframes. Very responsible and reliable managing pet care and house. Will definitely be using her pet sitting services again.
