“Zoe did a great job loving my puppies while I was gone. She communicated with me and sent pictures of them during my time away. When I returned home everything was in order and it didn’t even look like she had been here. I will definitely be using her again.”

“We are so thankful to have found Bree. She provided constant updates and was always willing to check in more if we wanted. We will 100% be using her for our extended vacations.”

“Tonie did great with our pups! She sent tons of pictures and kept us updated on how they were doing, even when she herself wasn't feeling great! We appreciate all the care you took into caring for our pups Tonie 😊”

“Brooklyn was able to help me out last minute and was great. She paid a lot of attention to my dogs and they really liked her. She communicated well and was fully invested in making sure my dogs were well-taken care of while I was gone.”

“Mariah was amazing! She came to our house and watched our 2 dogs for 4 days and did a fantastic job! I got daily updates as well as pictures letting me know how the dogs were doing the whole time. She played outside with them and spent quality time with them! I knew they were in good hands while I was away. She listened to all of the directions and left our house very clean! I highly recommend her and will be using her again for future bookings! If you are looking for someone reliable and trustworthy, book with Mariah!”

“Ariana is amazing! She came out to meet Gemma and go over instructions twice before we went out of town. Ariana sent pictures and kept us updated while we were away. We felt very comfortable leaving Gemma in her care! We will definitely book Ariana again!”

About: I am a loving mother of 2 and I will care for your pets as if they were one of the kids. I have dog sit before and loved it. When I was younger I use to volunteer at the animal shelter with my great-grandma and that's the reason I love animals today. I have flexible hours and can work around your schedule, anything you need I can do from dog baths to walks at the park. We also adopted a cat a couple of years ago, and we just love him to pieces. We also just adopted a dog that we have previously sat for. I currently work at a nursing home, my boyfriend and I work opposite schedules so someone is always at home with your fur babies. Also with it being summer I have my two kiddos help out. I will make sure each animal has proper care including a clean safe cozy shelter, clean water, regular bathroom breaks, going on walks for at least half an hour, who knows it could be longer, and so much more!
“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care Samantha provided for my dogs and cat during our recent trip. From the moment we met, it was clear that she is a true animal lover with a passion for ensuring pets are comfortable and well-cared for. My 3 dogs and cat felt at ease immediately, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Throughout the stay, Samantha was highly communicative, sending daily updates and pictures, which I really appreciated. She made sure to follow my pets routine and even went the extra mile by taking my shepherds on walks daily. When I returned, my pets were calm, happy, and healthy – a clear sign of the excellent care they all received. I would absolutely recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. I’ll definitely be booking her again in the future!”

“I was nervous about leaving my dog because she's a senior and very dear to me. Hannah was wonderful. She sent me pictures and updates. I arrived home to a happy & content doggie. Hannah did a great job and I highly recommend.”


About: I have taken care of dogs around my neighborhood and my own dogs from a very young age in all kinds of breeds and ages. I am currently an online college student working to get side income. I am able to work around lots of times to fit your needs! I will make sure to be attentive to any age dog in your home and provide wonderful enrichment and play time to get the energy out!
“Our typical dog sitter was busy for our weekend trip (we waited too long to reach out, that was our bad.) so I had to find someone else we could trust. Tracy has tons of positive reviews and was super quick getting back to me. The doggies were well taken care of. This was perfect for our short trip. Letting anyone into your home can be a little sketchy, but I never felt nervous on this trip. I definitely recommend.”

“Teresa was excellent taking care of our two dogs and kitten. She walked the dogs everyday, sent updates and pictures, and was very responsive. She also tidied up before we arrived back home. 10/10 would recommend!”

“Alexis was amazing and kept us in the loop with how our pets were doing. We got pics daily and she left our house in tip top shape. We highly recommend her and will definitely request her to come back. Thanks, Alexis!”

“Julia did a fantastic job! We felt completely at ease leaving our babies in her care. She was very attentive to their special needs. And sent pictures of their activities. Should an occasion come up, we will be requesting her services again!! Than you Julia🤗”

About: Growing up on a farm, I've had the pleasure of taking care of both small and big fur friends. I have experience with small house dogs, as well as barn cats and our Great Pyrenees and a German Shepard. I am also a medical professional, so I am comfortable with medication and lifestyle management for your furry family member! I am currently a full-time student with a focus in Pre-Medicine. I also work as an EMT part-time on a 911 service. Although signing up with Rover is allowing me to provide a safe, caring, and loving environment; I will also be getting the opportunity to experience time with your one of a kind fur family! I believe that pets provide just as much for us (if not more)! Coming into your home with your fur baby, I would ensure that they feel that nothing has changed. I'd keep their same routine, whether it be feeding times, walking times, etc. As stated earlier, I am also comfortable managing medications or any special care your fur baby may need!
River Cove pet parents share their Rover experiences
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter to watch our baby while we were away for a few days. Rebecca was so caring, attentive and loving with our dog. She provided multiple updates, pictures and videos, and followed all of our care instructions. Our dog loved her and had such a great time with her. We will definitely be using her again. Thank you so much, Rebecca!

Mariah was amazing! She came to our house and watched our 2 dogs for 4 days and did a fantastic job! I got daily updates as well as pictures letting me know how the dogs were doing the whole time. She played outside with them and spent quality time with them! I knew they were in good hands while I was away. She listened to all of the directions and left our house very clean! I highly recommend her and will be using her again for future bookings! If you are looking for someone reliable and trustworthy, book with Mariah!

Natalie was absolutely amazing with our golden retriever, Lola. She kept us updated throughout our trip and sent us pictures and check-ins without us even having to ask, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was obvious Lola was getting lots of love and attention! On top of taking incredible care of Lola, we came home to a spotless house! Natalie is reliable, thoughtful, communicative, and genuinely cares. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would recommend her to anyone without hesitation!

This was the second time Natalie watched our girls and she was just as wonderful as the first! She stayed with them, gave them so much love, and we could tell they were so happy and well cared for when we got home. It’s such a relief knowing they’re in such great hands—we’ll definitely continue booking with her!
