“I have used Annie S several times for house sitting my Golden Retriever . She is friendly and reliable plus easy to communicate with. Max is very comfortable with Annie and I feel that he is on good hands while I’m away . Excellent”
“Danielle was so fantastic and flexible! So communicative and friendly. She did a great job with my pups and she made it such an easy experience. So glad she was able to help out.”
About: I work part‑time and have a very flexible weekly routine, which means I’m able to spend extended, consistent time with pets throughout the day. I’m usually home for large stretches of the morning and early afternoon, and I keep my schedule intentionally open so I can prioritize walks, playtime, and companionship. My home is close to town, and I don’t have a long commute or rigid office hours. How I found my first Cat! When I was in middle school; I found my first cat through a local shelter. I was so committed to giving her a safe and loving home that I created a full slideshow explaining how I would care for her and presented it to my parents. That experience taught me responsibility & empathy . Since then, my dedication to helping animals has only grown, and I’m eager to bring that same level of care, initiative, and compassion to a shelter team. Pet care is part of my daily routine; I schedule structured walks, maintain consistent feeding and play times, and provide attentive house‑sitting throughout the week. I’m an extremely outdoors‑focused person; long walks with any animal are my daily reset. In both my home and clients’ homes, I provide dependable, attentive care through structured walking routines and responsible, detail‑oriented house‑sitting.
“Ryan took good care of Cooper and our house. She sent us pictures several times a day so we knew our little dog friend was fine. Ryan left the house very neat. I would certainly use her again.”
“Quinn was an amazing sitter for our kitty Murphy! From the very beginning, they were quick to respond, incredibly receptive, and made us feel completely at ease. It was clear that Quinn truly cares for animals—they were respectful of our home and kept everything clean. When we returned, Murphy was so happy and relaxed, which made us feel confident that they were in great hands the whole time. We really appreciated Quinn’s trustworthiness and the peace of mind they gave us while we were away. We can’t wait to have them back next time we travel!”
“Amber was incredible! She stayed at our house for a week with our VERY energetic one-year-old golden retriever and handled her like a champ. We came home to a clean house, a very happy puppy, and a sense of peace that our girl was taken care of. Amber sent photos and texts with updates and was very communicative with her plans and any questions she had. I can't thank you enough, Amber! Thank you again!”
“Cam was wonderful with our pets and very responsible in care of our home while we were out of the country! He communicated regularly, which was very reassuring. I would use him again and highly recommend him!”
“Lily was amazing! We booked last minute with her and she thoroughly surpassed our expectations. She was comfortable supporting our reactive dog and very accommodating to both our dogs and cat’s needs. She made sure they were comfortable, eating enough, getting exercise and play time. She sent many photos and kept me updated throughout. She eased my anxiety leaving our pups for the first extended period of time, we felt so reassured knowing she was loving and caring for our boys like her own! She was also very thoughtful in her questions and care for our home. We will book with her again!”
“Chloe took excellent care of Gus and our home over the long weekend. She sent frequent updates and photos, and left the house clean and tidy. She even thought to wash the sheets from her bed before she headed out. Very thoughtful and very trustworthy. I would absolutely recommend Chloe to take great care of your pet/s and home.”
About: I am a responsible individual who will take wonderful care of your pets. I have experience pet sitting for individuals with large and small pets, including dogs and cats. I enjoy spending time outside, so taking your pets on walks and playing with them will help them burn their energy, settle their nerves, and enjoy their time with me. I am home for the summer from college, and I am looking for a job where I can take care of pets and spend time with them. I enjoy pet sitting and being able to take care of animals to hopefully allow them to be more comfortable while the owners are away. From my work over the summer, I am hoping to put my earnings back into my education when I move back to college in the fall. I will care for your pets by being engaged while exercising and playing with them, and keeping them on a leash if/when the pets are outside of the yard. In addition, I will always make sure the animals get their medications if necessary and have ample and suitable water and food for any time they are alone.
“Alaina was a very caring and thoughtful cat sitter and house sitter for the week she took care of our 3 cats. Upon our return the cats seemed in good spirits and the house was clean and in order. We will definitely ask her back and hope she is available when we are in need again! Thank you Alaina!”
“Holly house sat with our 2 dogs for several days and was amazing. She was super proactive with communications, sent several pictures showing very happy dogs, was responsive and left the house as clean as we left it. We will most definitely use her again.”
“5 star pet sitter! It was clear from the get go Zoe takes it seriously. Absolutely will book again. Updates with pictures were thorough, thoughtful, and consistent. I felt like my kitty was safe and in good hands. Thank you!”
“Brandy is an exceptional pet caregiver! We left on a four day trip, not realizing our cat Earl Grey had an infected wound that would need emergency surgery. Under some very difficult circumstances Brandy took care of Earl pre and post surgery. She kept us informed of his progress through phone calls, text messages and photographs. She assured us that her priorities were to make sure Earl was safe and comfortable. After arriving home, Brandy stayed to meet us and gave us a debriefing of what was done and what needed to continue for Earl's care. She shared and demonstrated some tips and tricks that she found successful in caring for an outdoor cat that now had to stay indoors with a cone around his head. We cannot thank Brandy enough for the compassion, confidence and grace that she showed during this unexpected and challenging booking.”
“Traci did a fantastic job house sitting for us and had great communication. She provided daily photos and was very accommodating for our dog. Would definitely recommend!”
About: I have been around pets from a young age and grew up with both dogs and cats. My parents wanted to teach my sister and I the responsibility of taking care of our pets, and got us a cat that we were solely responsible to care for and I have loved caring for pets ever since! I have taken care of many pets since and have a dog of my own now. I work outside of my home Monday through Thursday from 8-5, I do have a shorter day on Friday, working 8-2. I have an hour break for lunch and typically go home to let my own pup out and would happily to the same for yours! I have a fenced in yard and a pup that loves everyone and will happily make your pets feel right at home. I can crate your pet if needed. My goal is always to make sure that any pet that I’m caring for feels comfortable and gets lots of play time.
“Bizzy did a wonderful job with my dogs ! I have been looking for a new dog sitter and chose Bizzy based on her reviews and she did not disappoint. She sent me plenty of updates and my house was in great order when I came home. She was also available last minute. Thanks again Bizzy, we will be asking for you to return next time ! Thanks again”
“Rosie did a great job with my reactive/anxious pup. I loved that she sent photos while I was away, and I felt confident leaving Winnie in her care. Would recommend!”
“Linda was great! Typically when I return from being away, Jax has severe separation anxiety but his demeanor was completely different when I returned. He was happy to see me but I could tell he was well loved while I was gone. That is the most important aspect I look for when using a care giver. My bonus was the house was spotless. I will be using Linda as often as I can get her.”
Riverfront pet parents share their Rover experiences
Elise did a good job of taking care of our house and our pets while we were out of town for two weeks. She was quick to respond to communications, followed instructions, respected our house, and left everything the way it was before we left. The pets didn't even act like they missed us that much, which is a big complement. Thanks!
We asked a lot of Rosie on very short notice. Our husky underwent an emergency sternotomy and lung lobectomy just 5 weeks prior to the vacation we had planned much earlier, AND he threw a first ever seizure into the mix a week before we left. I was going to cancel the trip after the seizure, since it felt scary for me to leave and unfair to put that on the sitter we had already booked months prior. But, I found Rosie while searching for first aid/CPR and special needs experience last-minute. Rosie came over for a meet & greet and was very understanding of the accommodations we’d made around the house to prevent Finn from injuring himself during the day (like mattresses on the floor and in strange places 🙃). She was confident in her ability to both recognize whether veterinary care was needed and to physically load our 70-lb dog into a car to get him that care, and that went a long way to put me at ease enough to take the vacation. Thankfully the need did not arise, and she was great with meds and respecting the activity restrictions still in place throughout the stay, while getting both dogs daily exercise within their ability. Rosie’s stay with the pups (and consequently our vacation!) went off without a hitch.
Liz did an amazing job with our four dogs when she dog sat for us! She is very knowledgeable and has a ton of experience with dogs. We felt incredibly comfortable leaving her with them overnight. She sent pictures and they were just happy as could be while we were gone. She came highly recommended from somebody that I know and trust really well and we will absolutely use her again!
Chloe took excellent care of Gus and our home over the long weekend. She sent frequent updates and photos, and left the house clean and tidy. She even thought to wash the sheets from her bed before she headed out. Very thoughtful and very trustworthy. I would absolutely recommend Chloe to take great care of your pet/s and home.
Lily was amazing! We booked last minute with her and she thoroughly surpassed our expectations. She was comfortable supporting our reactive dog and very accommodating to both our dogs and cat’s needs. She made sure they were comfortable, eating enough, getting exercise and play time. She sent many photos and kept me updated throughout. She eased my anxiety leaving our pups for the first extended period of time, we felt so reassured knowing she was loving and caring for our boys like her own! She was also very thoughtful in her questions and care for our home. We will book with her again!
Courtney was FANTASTIC for our two XL pups! She was incredibly responsive, gave us a bunch of updates while we were away, and was great with our boys. House was spotless when we returned and you can really tell she loves being with animals. Will definitely be booking with her again!
Amber was wonderful! Our dog can be shy/skittish with new folks and Amber gave her the time and space she needed to feel comfortable. She sent photos and updates to let us know our pup was being well cared for, and she left our house clean and tidy. Timely and clear communication as well. We would have her look after our pup again for future trips!
Annie did a great job for us taking care of Trixie over 5 nights. She was able to stay at our house the whole time and sent pictures every day. Our communications with her were through Rover by text. We felt that our house was secure and upon returning home found that to be true. We found Trixie to be just fine in every way as well. We will not hesitate to schedule with Annie another time.
Bianey was the best choice for a house and cat sitter I could have asked for. She made sure I received daily updates on how my Spunky was doing and, when I returned from my trip, I found my house in good order and Spunky very glad to see me. I couldn't have asked for more
Aderley has been a life saver for our dogs! It’s been difficult to find someone consistent and dependable, especially when it comes to watching a pitbull AND a Doberman, both with some quirks. It’s a huge plus that she’s willing to do overnights so my partner and I can get away every once in awhile during the weekends. Aderley has a very calm but confident demeanor that puts us at ease.
