“Elizabeth was amazing. It's not easy going away worry-free on vacation, but she nailed it. I didn't leave her with any instructions and she handled everything flawlessly. Even exceeded expectations. Cannot recommend enough!”

“Erica was a wonderful pet sitter. She was sweet, courteous, intuitive to our family and home, timely, and followed all instructions without hesitation. Our fur baby was happy & well taken care of upon our arrival home. We look forward to having Erica help out in the future for overnight stays, dog walks & cuddles!”

“Khalia watched our three dogs over thanksgiving and she did an amazing job! They were so well taken care of and loved. We would recommend her and will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Sheridan is great with Gracie Bird and a wonderful house sitter as well. This is her second stay with her and I plan to use her again on my next trip.”

About: I have owned, fostered, and volunteered with animals for over 10 years. Not only that, I have experience with providing animal therapy in a clinical setting for the last two years. Dogs and cats hold a big piece of my heart and I genuinely love to accommodate to their needs. I have experience raising puppies and kittens, taking care of elderly cats and dogs, and dogs and cats that have behavioral problems. I am familiar on how to care for dogs that have aggressive tendencies, anxiety, and hip problems. Likewise, I have experience handling cats with aggression and timidness. I am a small business owner and have days where I work from home. I could use that time to not only make extra money, but spend time with dogs and cats as well! I make sure to provide as much affection, activity, and attention to my pets to the best of my ability. Which I ensure the same treatment is given to your pets too. Depending on what service you would like me to provide, I am more than happy to go on long walks with your dog, offer enrichment, or maybe you have a lapdog that just needs a temporary companion. I am dependable and have the experience and genuine care and trust to ensure your pet has the best experience possible.
“Jess was simply amazing! Her joy in staying with our dogs was obvious and incredibly reassuring. She very quickly earned the trust of our skittish girls. They were obviously comfortable and happy. The pictures and updates were very appreciated. She also left the house extremely clean. We will definitely be repeat customers. Best sitter we’ve ever had.”

“Morgan was my first experience using Rover and took all the stress away! She provided frequent and thorough updates. I could tell in the pictures she shared my pup was having a great time. Can’t wait to book her again!”

“This is the first time Janasha watched the dogs! She always stayed in communication and gave updates at least three times a day without even asking for them. We came home and the pups seemed to be in the best mood and while taking care of! Thankful for her care and accountability! The pics of the girls throughout the weekend was a plus :)”
“Loren was awesome taking care of our 3 dogs. She sent a lot of pictures and kept in touch keeping our minds at ease during our vacation. I would recommend her taking care of other people’s animals.”

“Maggie went above and beyond! This was our first time using Rover, and I’ll admit I was hesitant. We have a diabetic, blind dog and another who gets incredibly down whenever we go away. But Maggie was amazing from start to finish. She sent us photos and updates that showed both dogs were not only doing well, but genuinely enjoying themselves. She even got Fiona, our shy girl, out of her room for walks and playtime outside! On top of all that, the house was tidied up when we got back, which was such a thoughtful surprise. We’ll absolutely be using Maggie again in the future!”

“Samantha took great care of two Labs and sent us lots of pictures, which we greatly appreciated! At the last minute, we had to ask her to drop off our sick cat at our Vet's office the day we left on our trip and she gladly did it. The next day, on her own initiative, she visited our cat at the Vet's office to give him some TLC.”

“Kora was wonderful. She was very communicative and our boys (two dogs and a cat) were all very well cared for. I would absolutely ask Kora back and highly recommend her to anyone else.”


About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and grew up helping care for my own pets, taking on a larger role in their daily routines about six years ago. Over the past two years, I’ve also provided reliable pet and house sitting for family and friends. Through these experiences, I’ve become comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and pet transportation. I have experience with both small and large dogs (growing up with a miniature sheltie and a black lab)! As the families I’ve provided pet care services for have grown, I also have gained experience providing care for senior dogs. I treat every pet like my own and aim to make them feel comfortable while you’re away! I am currently working part-time (7-3 Friday through Sunday), so I have a free schedule during the week to take care of your pets while you’re at work or away! I also am available afternoons Friday-Sunday for walks and check ins. When caring for pets in a clients home, I focus on keeping their routines as consistent as possible. I am attentive to detailed instruction and preferences, and take safety very seriously. I am mindful of keeping doors and gates secure, monitoring pets during walks or outdoors, and making sure their (and your) space stays clean and safe. I respect your home just as much as your pet, and I make sure to communicate regularly with updates for your peace of mind.
“Pleased with Eleanor's services in watching my dog! She put me at ease knowing my dog would be well taken care of and giving him attention during her sit! Definitely recommend booking with her!”

Riverlea pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kelsey is SO kind. Her love and care for my cats was apparent from the first video update she sent. She was patient when the cats were being quirky and she went above and beyond to ensure their routines were followed and they were as happy as possible. I will absolutely be booking with her again. Thank you for everything, Kelsey!!

I had a great experience with Quinn! She took excellent care of my dog and cats while I was away, giving me complete peace of mind. Communication was fantastic, with regular updates and photos that showed how happy and comfortable my pets were. It was clear that she genuinely cared for each animal and treated them like her own. I came home to well-cared-for, relaxed pets and a tidy home. I highly recommend Quinn to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and compassionate pet sitter.

Hallie was the perfect fit for our pets and home. The meet and greet allowed Vanna and Scout to be comfortable with a new person to care for them and we came home to relaxed and happy fur babies! Hallie was a perfect communicator- photos, questions, updates were all very comforting as we were away. She has a relaxed demeanor that I know Vanna and Scout appreciated!

Kaylee was awesome! Really came through for us and our pets. It was a last minute request but Kaylee accepted without hesitation and took great care of our home as well as our pets! We really appreciate it. We will definitely use services again in the future and I highly recommend.

Taylor was great! This was our first time using rover and we we’re going to be out of the country for over 2 weeks. She came over and met our cat Panther before we left gave us confidence she was good either way cats. During the trip she gave us regular updates and the most important thing was Panther looked happy. Our only regret with Taylor is that she’s moving out of state. We cannot recommend her more highly!

Loren took care of my two dogs while I was gone for 7 days. She sent updates twice a day (even when I was unable to access the internet) which I appreciated. I have a very reactive dog and she was very patient with him, even came to meet him twice before the trip. Would be happy to use her services again in the future.

Lea is the best! She is so responsible and communicative, making it so easy for me and my husband to go on vacation and not worry about our home and doggies. We are so thankful for her help, and always enjoy coming home to happy dogs and a clean home!! Highly recommend!!

Katlyn is the best! This was our second time asking her to housesit and she did a fabulous job! She follows all care instructions, leaves the house super clean, is very trustworthy, and our anxious pup Archie loves her! Will definitely be asking Katlyn to housesit again soon!

Margaret was great! She sent lots of pics of my dog and communicated very effective updates. I was nervous leaving my dog with a sitter for the first time but she put me at ease! I will definitely use her again. She understand my dogs quirks and managed accordingly. The house was left very tidy.
