4. Diamond W.
“This was our first time using rover and I am very happy with the experience. Diamond did a great job even after a mix up in addresses for our home. I was nervous since I’ve never had someone who wasn’t family come check on our dogs, but all my pups seemed to have loved her! She was on time and did everything we asked. Definitely a good first experience using rover!!”

About: New to rover, but I have lots of years of experience in pet sitting. I specialize in routines. I can help with training puppies, ensuring they develop good behavior and social skills from a young age. With senior pets I provide the necessary attention and gentle handling that older pets require. I excel in helping kittens by helping them adapt to household routine, using litter boxes properly and developing positive behaviors hoping to meet the needs of each pet, ensuring they receive the best care possible. Creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment makes me a standout choice for pet sitting. I am mostly at home because I am working a part time. I would be mostly available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and some weekends. I will most definitely try to fit you in anytime of course. In my home, I ensure a comfortable and secure environment tailored to each pet's needs. For kitty’s, I provide a safe space filled with stimulating toys, scratch posts, and dedicated time for socialization and litter training. For senior pets, I offer a calm and quiet area with easy access to their necessities, gentle exercise, and attentive care to manage their health and comfort. My routine includes regular feeding, exercise, and plenty of affection and of course treats!! ensuring every pet feels at home and well loved.
8. Ayshah P.
“My dog Rocko doesn’t always like strangers or anyone that’s not me lol, but Ayshah got him to obey her commands no problem. She really takes such great care for him while walking and caring for him. She keeps treats and water for the walk and always cleans up after him along the way. After a couple walks Rocko now gets super excited to see her pull into my driveway. He knows his friend has arrived to love and play with him. I really appreciate the fact that she seems to love and enjoy my fur baby as much as I do, that really takes the pressure off my back. I say all this to say do your fur baby and yourself a favor and hire Ayshah for your pet’s caregiving needs.”
9. Lee G.
“We had such a great experience with Lee. So nice , loved the dogs, followed instructions. We would definitely recommend him.”
10. Kerry M.
“Took care of the cats as requested and made sure to ask questions! She made sure to clean the litter box and provide the cats plenty of attention ! Great cat sitter and would definitely book again”
11. Naci H.
“Naci will be an excellent pet sitter or dog walker. I have observed her caring for family pets as well as interacting with pets in other people’s homes, and she always demonstrates a genuine love for animals that goes far beyond providing food and water. She easily provides plenty of tactile stimulation and reassurance that lets the pet know it is safe and loved. She is an amazing Christian young woman who is responsible and caring. Any family would be fortunate to have her care for their fur babies.”
12. Ashley J.
“Ashley is amazing with animals. Our dogs love her. She is positive and patient with a calming demeanor. Our rescue pup, who is notoriously slow warming up to people, trusts her instinctively. She even gave Ashley kisses after their very first walk! That never happens! I highly recommend her to anyone in the area looking for a friendly, reliable dog walker/sitter.”
13. Shay T.
“She's wonderful! She sent daily photos and updates for each visit. I highly recommend Shay and look forward to booking her again.”
14. Elise S.
About: Hello, my name is Elise! Both my grandmother and my mom have been part of the dog sitting business for as long as I can remember. We also have pets of our own, so I have been around animals all of my life. It has genuinely become a passion of mine as I began to help my family from an early age with every pup that has entered into our care, up until now as an adult. This, in turn, came with learning about different dog breeds, their behavior, and body language. With all of that in mind, I can guarantee you that your pet will be in safe hands and well taken care of. You will also receive photos of every interaction so you can see how happy your fur baby is. I am currently working part-time. Thankfully, I have a steady schedule that will allow me to provide time to meet you and your fur baby. I have a lot of backyard space that pets enjoy. My family and I also spend a lot of time outside in our garden, so your dog will get plenty of outdoor time. As far as going to a client's home, I'd make sure ask about rover notes and texts regarding instructions while following up with pictures of their pup along with pictures of the finished tasks.
15. Carlee B.
“Carlee met up with us a couple weeks before our vacation and even gave us some calming spray to borrow for one of our dog's anxiety with thunder. She sent us pictures every day that she was there and went above and beyond in getting th pups new toys!”
16. Ivy E.
“Ivy did a great job with my temperamental cats. She took great care of them and played with them on her drop-in visits and sent really great photos along with a detailed experience of every visit, which would often be hilarious. She even went so far as to clean up vomit without me even asking her to. I would highly recommended Ivy and will be booking with her again.”
17. Chrysantheum E.
“She’s such a sweet and respectful young lady. Our baby was noticeably comfortable in her presence. Although she just started using this platform, we have trusted her around our dogs for years!”
18. Lei H.
“Amazing with my pups!”
19. Katrina M.
“Katrina has taken care of my dog (Black Labrador) on multiple occasions. My dog quickly became attached to her shortly after meeting each other. Which does not always happen. He was a rescue and tends to shy away from a lot of people. Whenever I leave him in her care, he is always properly taken care of. She tends to go above and beyond. She is an excellent caretaker and I know my dog is in great hands when I leave him with her. I would strongly recommend her to everyone. She really cares about the animals and is extremely respectful and professional.”

About: For those who have multiple fur babies, I can walk up to 3 dogs at 1 time. My orginal career was as an veterinary assistance at a southern animal clinic. Currently have 1 pets of my own. Enjoy long walks, brushing furs and playing with toys. Additionally request such as in home bath and grooming services preferred it made in advance. As long as there a list of instructions it would be my honor to care for your loved one old or new. I currently work for home in the evening, so I have plenty to time for outdoor activities before 2p. Even when I'm working your love one is never along because my partner and I one friendly dog to keep them company. Plus I have frequent breaks and long lunches. We can easily crate your dog if ye desire but most let the dogs enjoy the house furniture because we have washed rugs and mostly leather sofa so it easy to clean up. We have a fence in pin area for poop, but we mostly walk and run on a privacy trail.
