“Marianne has been absolutely the best pet sitter we could’ve ever asked for. She is loving, attentive and communicative. She’s quick to make the animal comfortable. she watched my cat sushi over the weekend faithfully for months. We kept going back to Marianne because she was truly the best person for the job. when my cat started to get sick, she noticed immediately and notified us so we were able to get her into the vet and cared for quickly. We know Sushi loved her and we would definitely work with her again!! Thank you, Marianne!!”


“Krystal was absolutely amazing. Very respectful, attentive, friendly and works very well with dogs. I know a great person when I meet one and she carries amazing energy, highly recommend!”


“Kimmeth goes above and beyond to take care of our 2 babies when we are away. She is patient, sweet, and so caring. She will win over even your most timid kitty! I highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend her.”


“Taylor went above and beyond! She is super communicative and responds quickly, and helped me out with some tasks around the house, including communicating with FPL! My cat has been in a bit of a shy period but she seems to have become very comfortable with Taylor, and Taylor sent me the cute pics to prove it! Thank you so much!”


“Genesis was so great! She was very detailed and sent a lot of pictures. She kept us updated. We will definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone in need.”


“Robin was punctual, followed our instructions, and spent the allotted time as promised with our dog. We look forward to using Robin again for future drop-ins.”


“Aileen was great! She did a great job looking after my two cats on short notice. Good communication, friendly and easy to work with!”


“Estefania has cared for my boys several times and is wonderful with updates and making sure they are great while I'm away. I highly recommend and will continue booking her services!”


“Abby was just so great with mochi! She played ball with her and spent a nice amount of time with her and took her on a great walk! I’m so happy that we found her and looking forward to more visits! Thanks again for everything Abby!”


“Alyssa has been amazing with our one year old German Shepherd. He’s very sensitive and needs some patience, TLC, and understanding. Alyssa has a calming energy matched with leadership and good animal intuition that our GSD has responded remarkably quickly to. Alyssa came over for a meet n greet - took the time to learn his quirks, training, and personality then came over again for a one on one walk. Our GSD runs away, barks, and hides when new people try to clip his leash but she sent a pic twenty minutes later on a walk with him. We were not only impressed with her care, demeanor, and skill but also extremely grateful/relieved to have found a sitter like Alyssa. Highly recommend her for all dog sitting needs and breeds!”


“Vadim was amazing with Baxter. Such a warm, caring and compassionate person, my dog didn’t bark once at meeting him without me home. That alone speaks volumes. I’m extremely happy and grateful.”


“I am super blessed that I found Dawn! She takes care of my cat in the best way possible and also gives her medicine that my cat is on! Dawn is the best!”

About: I’ve had my dog for almost 7 years and now have two dogs. I grew up with dogs and they are my passion. Im a nurse getting my masters and have some time to take care of other fur babies. I am committed to taking care of all types of dogs of all ages. I currently have some weeks off of clinical rotations so I am home most of the time. Afterwards I will be gone about 2x a week. I live in an apartment, but I take my dogs out on regular walks every few hours. I do not crate train my dogs and they are allowed to go on furniture.

About: Hey there, we are Rod & Ros! We both had pets our whole lives, both of our grandparents are veterinarians, so we grew in a household full of love and knowledge about pets. My girlfriend has been a pet sitter since she was in middle school she took care of senior dogs, puppies, cats, kittens, turtles, fishes and parrots. I myself have also been a doggy sitter several times for friends and family. We both just love petsitting and that is why we decided to join Rover. My girlfriend works part time from home and I work at night so we both have plenty of time during the day to play and enjoy time with your pet. We have two Australian parakeets, when there are no other pets around, we love to free them inside the apartment so that they can stretch their wings. When we have pet guests we keep them in their cage and if the guest is not comfortable with them we keep them in a separate room. We work regular office hours Mon-Fri 9am-5pm, so during weekdays we only offer walk service or drop-inn visits after 5:30pm. On weekends we have full availability for both walks and drop-in visits. We love to make your dog or cat feel special and loved on the short time of our visit or walk, we would try to connect with your pet and give him/her all the love we can, for this reason we only walk one dog at the time and we do only 1 drop in visit during weekdays. Your special furry friend deserves respect and value time, during our walk or visit, we will always pay attention to what they make, making sure they stay hydrated not overexposed to high temperatures , we will be patient and do as many stops as they need to make.

“Caring, responsible, punctual. Thank you Jennifer for the care you gave to my furry babies. Take care.”


“Thank you for the great feedback!:)”


About: Dogs are my passion! To me this isn’t a job but a hobby and a way for owners to feel at ease when having to leave their dog. I grew up with dogs and my family dogs do not live with me in my apartment so I’m always looking for dog company! From long walks to playing fetch, I will keep your dog entertained and cared for. I am trustworthy and reliable and would love to care for your dog. I typically work from home 2-3 days a week and can be flexible on which days to accommodate scheduling requests. Always available on fridays and weekends for the most part. I’m in an apartment building on the 6th floor. We have a dog park on site but I would also just walk your dog around the area. (Whatever you prefer). I’m very cautious with elevators and wouldn’t ride one if another dog is in it at the same time. I also like to provide pics and updates to the owner throughout the day so they feel at ease. I have a roommate who also loves dogs and has one as well - a shitzu. He is very friendly and calm.

“I am so glad I found Paige, she is wonderful and took amazing care of my cat. She shared very detailed notes to keep me updated while I was away and I’m looking forward to booking her again soon.”
