2. Tatum L.

“Tatum is a wonderful pet sitter! It is so nice to be able to travel and have peace of mind that your pets are well taken care of. She sends photos and texts daily, which is very much appreciated. I will definitely be reaching out to Tatum the next time we travel.”


3. David D.

“David was awesome with our girl. Let us book on fairly short notice and sent frequent updates and pictures. Will be contacting him again when we need a sitter!”


4. Rebecca T.

“Rebecca helped us out in a pinch. Our 9 month old high energy puppy hadn’t been prepared, but he did great under her care and we had huge relief. Our puppy was better behaved when we returned! Rebecca helped train and him and gave him lots of energy outlets.”


5. Valory N.

“Valory is amazing. She’s professional, courteous, attentive to detail, and willing to go the extra mile; not just for the owner, but also for the dog! My pup whined more when she left then when I did for my trip. 100% rebooking with her in the future. Couldn’t ask for more.”


6. Shelby B.

“Shelby is an amazing dog sitter! She took great care of our dog while we were away for a week. This was our first time using Rover and Shelby single handedly exceeded our expectations! She was very attentive to Hazel’s every need. I know Hazel had a great week filled with lots of fun outdoors on walks or playing fetch with her frisbee. She even took it upon herself to bring her own treats and toys that she gave to hazel. We will definitely be using Shelby in the future!”


7. Monroe B.

“Miranda was excellent with our senior dog and took great care of him. She made sure he was well fed, got his potty breaks, and had plenty of time for his naps. She kept us updated and sent photos while we were gone. I would highly recommend Miranda and her outstanding care.”


8. Kiera B.

“Kiera took great care of our pups while we were on vacation. She sent us pictures and updates often and treated our pups like she would her own. Thankful we found her! Will definitely rebook!”


9. Natalie J.
About: I have owned and taken care of dogs since I was 6 years old. I grew to love animals like my own family. I’m very nurturing, loving, easygoing. Please feel free to get to know me <3 I currently work part-time hours so I would have plenty of time to care for your animals and I also have a pet friendly neighborhood so your pet will always go to a dog park just to have some fun time and lots of walking. We go on walks leashed . We do nap time. We have playtime. We have breakfast/ dinner time alone just so they are comfortable . Cuddle Time. Learning new tricks.


10. Christina D.

“Best dog sitter we have had to date. Christina was amazing from the get go. Kept us up to date and made sure our 3 dogs were well loved and taken care of while we were on vacation. Would recommend her to any and everyone!”


11. Kate J.

“Kate was awesome! We hired her to house sit with our dog while we were gone for a week. Our dog Willow is normally very anxious and a little hard to handle. When we got home you wouldn’t of even known we left for a week! It was the calmest she’s ever been. Kate sent daily photos and updates about Willow too which was nice. I’d hire her again!!!”


12. Megan K.

“Megan was friendly, professional and punctual. She stayed in contact while I was away (which helped to work through some unforseen issues) and sent pictures and videos of my cat while she house sitted. She also seems to be some kind of cat whisperer since my cat is not friendly with many people but seemed to take to her immediately. She also helped me navigate the Rover site for booking what I wanted and planned ahead to avoid letting my cat out into a storm (I was out of town and unaware of the situation). I would highly recommend Megan for your pet sitting needs.”


13. Brianna P.

“Couldn't be happier with Bri service! From the moment we met, it was clear they truly love dogs. My pups instantly felt comfortable with her and I could tell they were in good hands. Throughout the stay, Bri kept me updated with pictures and messages, showing how much fun Remi and Charlie were having. Whether it was walks, playtime, or cuddles, they were provided so much attention and care. I came home to a happy, well-exercised, and relaxed dogs, which made me feel so at ease while I was away. Bri was also very professional—punctual, easy to communicate with, and left everything clean and tidy. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter. Will definitely be booking again!”


14. Emily H.

“Emily was great with our two cats! I have one super social kitty and one not so social kitty and both completely hit it off with her. We also scheduled everything very last minute and on a holiday to boot, but Emily made it incredibly easy to plan and took a lot of the stress out of the evening for us. We will be in contact again as necessary - and thank you SO much Emily!!”


15. Liesa B.


“Liesa did a great job. She followed instructions and stayed a little after due to our concert going late. It was a long day and we had to leave Lily alone a couple of times already, so her willingness to stay after was a big help. We received pictures of our little girl and she was easy to communicate with.”


16. Kelzey F.

“Kelzey took care of our two girls, Luna and Phoenix, for 5 days while we were out of town and did an exceptional job. She made sure to play with them and fed them on schedule. We came home to happy pups and found the house just as we left it. We are so grateful to have found someone who loves our girls as much as we do. Highly recommend Kelzey!”


17. Daniela D.
“Daniela is one of the most kind and caring individuals I know. If I need anything for my pets she is the first person I ask because I know that she’ll drop everything for me and my animals. She is amazing with every dog I have seen her with, and she is personally besties with my dog.”


18. Janice C.
“Janice is great! She has watched my dog several times and always listens to our instructions. She is very thoughtful and I would definitely hire her again.”


19. Keira C.

“Kiera was great with our Dog and updated us regularly. Would definetly use again.”


20. Kathy & Brad L.

“We are so thankful for Kathy and Brad taking care of our babies over the Christmas holiday. I trusted that they were in caring hands. They even got a visit from “Santa” in costume and we got a picture. It made our day on Christmas!”
