“Did a great job managing our house full of animals while we were away for two weeks. We came home to happy healthy animals, and I could tell they'd been well-cared for!”



“Ashley was GREAT! I had a last minute trip pop up this weekend and she immediately responded to help me out. She even dropped what she was doing to come meet her that night! She was super responsive while I was away, and Brooklyn is worn out tonight- which I know is because she had so much fun! Thanks again, Ashley!”


“We were so happy with Jamie's house sitting, we would ask her to stay with our dogs again in a heartbeat. We have two large (50+lb) dogs - one is very anxious, and the other is standoffish with new people, so I had been hesitant to bring an unknown person in to watch them while we were out of town. Jamie seemed to win them over with ease. During our meet & greet, my anxious dog was climbing up on her and demanding love by the time Jamie sat on the couch. And, partway through the week we were gone, we received a wonderful note from Jamie declaring that our standoffish dog was now accepting belly rubs (a status almost none of our relatives have reached!). Jamie was wonderful with text messages and pictures, and great about reaching out if she had any questions. But the proof is in the pudding - we came home to two amazingly happy, calm dogs, who had spent the week we were gone getting love and peanut butter from a fantastic dog sitter!”


“10 stars needed! ❤️ left Keisha w/ a huge task!! She went above and beyond from every aspect ~ so accommodating… most importantly~ she took great care of the high maintenance rugrats and notably after being gone for 4 days ~ I know the dog didn’t leave the place spotless 😉 I’m a 1st timer on this app so I was anxious prior to our initial meet and great, having a stranger in your house and trusting them with your little loves was new for me.. No worries were needed… it couldn’t have been a more perfect experience!! ❤️”


“Melissa watched our pets for the first time for an evening while we were out and it went great! We came home to happy healthy cats and dog. She had great communication and provided updates throughout the evening. We will definitely be reaching out to her in the future for other pet sitting needs.”



“Carole was nothing short of amazing! I have 2 senior dogs, one of whom is very “particular” as far as the people she likes. Carole was able to walk her and care for her without any issues. I received photos and updates and felt completely at ease knowing that they were in good hands.”


“I couldn’t have picked a better place to leave my dog. I needed a last minute dog sitter and luckily for me Camila was available. When we arrived we were welcomed by Camila and her mom and my dog rushed over happily. Their home is lovely and my dog loved the backyard. Camila makes sure to send updates and pics so I knew my dog was having a great time. I can’t thank Camila and her mom enough for helping us short notice and giving my dog a wonderful stay. I would highly recommend them to anyone!”


“Jasmine was a fantastic person to have house sit for our pets! She sent many updates and photos. I know that she took the best care of our Great Dane (and cat!). I would highly recommend her! Hope we can book her again.”


About: I LOVE DOGS. Their lives are short, and I want to help them enjoy those years with comfort, care, and fun. I have had a dog companion in my life since I was five years old. I especially enjoy caring for high-energy dogs who need regular exercise—I’m always up for long walks, playtime, or outdoor adventures. I also have experience with senior dogs, and I understand the importance of patience, gentle handling, and keeping routines consistent. I’ve successfully trained dogs to potty outside, sit on command, and even walk off-leash. Whether your pup is young and active or older and needs a slower pace, I’ll make sure they’re well cared for while you’re away. I function better with a dog at my side. Dogs help me start my day with purpose—there’s nothing like a good morning walk to get us both moving and ready for breakfast and whatever the day brings. I love building routines that keep dogs active, happy, and well cared for. I work remotely, so my schedule is very flexible and allows me to be fully present for pet care throughout the day. With cats, I understand how much they value consistency. I’m attentive to their morning and evening routines—feeding, cleaning the litter box, and giving them space or affection depending on their mood. I also make time for play and interaction throughout the day, based on each cat’s personality. Communication is everything. I try to make sure I understand each animal's boundaries and needs before providing care, this includes list of allergies and medications.

“I loved Alyssa's help taking care of my dog Tango. She did everything I asked her to do. She was very responsible and my dog Tango loved her. During my trip, she sent me photos of Tango's walks with her in the park. 100% recommended.”


“Adrinne was incredible! She took great care of our dog, Rita, taking her on my walks, to dog-friendly coffee shops, and many snuggles. She sent photos and updates every day. We would highly recommend her and look forward to having her back!”


“Carrianne did a wonderful job caring for my dog when I went out of town for a weekend. Penny takes some time to warm up to people and Carrianne was very patient and understanding throughout that process. She followed the care instructions I left and sent daily updates with important information (e.g., walks, eating habits, general behavior) with photos. She also stayed overnight in my apartment and left everything really tidy. I couldn't be happier with the care Penny received and will definitely rebook for future travel plans!”


“Elizabeth did the most fantastic job with our dog Annie. She was always fast to respond and sent multiple updates with pictures! Annie can be reactive and has grudges against many of our neighbors dogs so leaving her with someone new for neighborhood walks can be daunting. I felt completely confident in Elizabeth after one walk with her and Annie. We will absolutely be reaching back out to Elizabeth the next time we are looking for a rover! Thank you so much for the best first rover experience.”


“This is our first time using Rover and I am so glad that Lily was the one to watch Rosie. She did a great job keeping us updated, sending pictures and it looks like she and Rosie had a blast. She even did a little training for us. I highly recommend Lily and we will definitely use her again in the future.”


About: My family and I have owned and taken care of animal since the day I was born. I began taking care of dogs and cats about 3 years ago. I have 3 rescue dogs who I love to take to the dog park so they can run around and socialize. I’m very good with anxious dogs, as one of mine has had rough past. I am a student-athlete so I am very busy. One of my favorite things to do to decompress is to go for walks with my fur babies. I’m active and can keep up with just about any shape or size of dog. I wash my dogs about once every two weeks and clip their nails at home. I have a very busy schedule around swim practice and school but I am willing to wake up very early to walk some pets before school. Now that I am in college, I have a much more flexible schedule to work around classes and practice. I have experience with administering medication to dogs and practice safe walking behaviors (always wearing high visibility clothing, correct side of the road, dog on the inside, etc.).

“Ali is amazing! Very nice, punctual and great communicator! She sent lots of pictures. When I got home my house waa as clean as I left it, waa like no-one had been there. My puppy was super happy too. Definitely recommend and I will use Ali again”


“Catherine did a great job. She took great care of our dog and two cats. She asked a lot of great questions that I wouldn’t have even thought about. Very thoughtful and thorough. We will definitely be asking her to petsit again.”


“It was so nice to have Kathryn stay with Autumn while we were away. Kathryn is sweet, responsive and kind. She sent me several pictures during her time with Autumn..”


“Travis was fantastic as our pet sitter. He was reliable, attentive, and genuinely cared for our pets. One of our dogs needed eye drops, and Travis handled it with ease. The pets were happy and well-cared for when we returned. Highly recommend!”

Rhonda did an excellent job with my 2 pups while I was away for 10 days. Lot's of walks with regular updates to me. Not sure the dogs even cared that I left them. She also took great care of my house and even baked me some delicious pumpkin bread to have upon my return. Rhonda is wonderful and I will use her again.

Erica always does an amazing job watching our pup! We have trusted her for several sits and it is always a great experience. She truly cares about our dog and provides multiple updates each day while watching our dog which is nice to see as you are away from your pet. I can’t say enough on how positive Erica’s care and experiences have been. Would highly recommend!

This was our first time having a house sitter/Rover care giver, and Jackie really helped put our minds at ease! She was lovely keeping our dogs comfortable and calm during the very loud local air show while we were away. Our pup Frankie had a tummy issue and bad accident in her crate, and Jackie gave her a bath and cleaned everything up amazingly. We are very grateful for all her work!

Thanks for another successful extended stay. Appreciate all the care and support for our Harvey. He is so lucky we have found you. Came home from a long road trip to find the house super clean and a happy pup. Thanks for everything Yacob!!! Really appreciate it all!!!

Zoey was phenomenal!! She is truly a natural with animals. Zoey took such good care of our dog, Rocket. Our dog has a unique personality and isn’t the greatest walker, but Zoey handled his differences and challenges with kindness and ease. I never worried once while she watched Rocket. Thanks for doing so well, Zoey!!
