“Allie took excellent care of our 2 dogs while we were away. Knowing our elderly dog was comfortable, and taken care of with our young pup was super important. Thanks, Allie! You're awesome.😎”
“Top tier! She watched our 2 boys in our home while we were away. She loved my dogs like her own. Lots of walks, playtime and snuggles. She sent us pictures throughout the day and kept them on their feeding schedule. The boys were able to stay in their own environment. She is very professional and courteous. Will use her again! Outstanding.”
“Right off the batt, two words: HIRE DALTON! This young man exceeded every expectation of a pet/house sitter! We have a rescue pointer who can be pretty insecure. Dalton was so sweet, knowledgeable and patient that by day 2 of a week long pet sit, Buddy was completely at ease and happy. Dalton sent us updates every day with photos and details of their day. When we got home, the house was as if we never left, and he actually washed his bedding. Your pets will be in the best of hands and we simply cannot recommend him enough. We will be repeats for sure.”
“This is the second time La’Kyerah has watched my pup and I hope she’s available for all my future trips. When I go away, I have full peace knowing my high needs, older dog is in such good hands and is happy and well-cared for upon my return. La’Kyerah is a gem and I feel so lucky to have found her!”
“Lizzy did a fantastic job with Sokka. She was very receptive to the care instructions and did frequent check-ins to keep me updated throughout her stay. Lizzy even took the time to straighten things back up around the house before leaving, which was very much appreciated! She is both kind and professional, I highly recommend her to anyone and will definitely book again!”
“Montrez does an amazing job with my dog and I added my boyfriend's dog to the mix and it was even better! I'm so glad I found him, he's truly a Godsend and will love your fur babies like they are his!”
“Isabella was incredible! Her communication was great and she sent frequent updates on our pups/kitty. She was easy to work with and took great care of our pets and home while we were gone. We would highly recommend her.”
“Michael is a gem! He is chill and my dogs love him. If you are looking for a kind and trustworthy soul to hang out with your pets, he’s your guy. He is very respectful of our house and follows all of my crazy directions for my needy dogs. Since we work from home and are with our dogs the majority of most days, it was nice to find someone who will actually hang around isn’t gone 10 hours a day. We come home to happy, chill dogs and that’s all that matters. I recommend Michael 100%!!”

About: I have taken care of pets my entire life and just love them, doggies especially! I have been trusted with keeping many of my friends pets over the years and taking care of homes. I am in and out of the house during the day working a couple of different jobs all of which allow me to swing by during the day or keep me here during the day. I am always home at night. I have a fully fenced unescapable yard. I have a doggy door so the pets can go in and out as they please. I have a small shitzu who is old and nearly blind and deaf. She loves other animals and keeps to herself mostly.
About: Along with owning an array of animals throughout my life, I have volunteered at shelters since high school. Seeing the effects of love and care is truly eye opening. I cannot wait to be apart of the village that loves your animal! I am currently in the process of getting my bachelor’s degree, and spend some of my free time at shelters. I love all things animals, and would love to spend some of my free time helping other’s give their pets the best care. In a clients home, I will respect all wishes for not only their pet, but their space. Playing, walking, and feeding will be done as the client wishes.
About: I have many pets at home (10 to be exact) and they are the best part of each day. I would love to get to know yours as well! I just took a break from college, so I have a lot of free time. I am still available on weekends but not full time because of work. Weekdays are totally free! My main goal is to make your pets feel safe and comfortable with me. I will do what’s needed to make them feel as though they can trust me.
About: Throughout my whole life, I have been surrounded by dogs and cats in the household. I’ve also had reptiles, so I have a well-rounded experience with taking care of many animals. I’ve taken many babysitting jobs from people I know, and am very good at following the specific instructions given. I have also assisted my dog while she had given birth. I’m a full time student, my average day schedule start around 9 and ends around 1. In the afternoons, nights, and weekends i am free. I live in a gated community, and have a house with 4 other animal loving roommates. My floors are wood, so any possible messes are easy to clean. They are free to roam around the house and in my room, but if given specific instructions I can also keep them in my room while taking care of them. I have room for a crate as well.
About: I have worked in the pet industry for almost 8 years and have enjoyed every single minute of it! At my current position, I have been working directly with dogs for 5+ years and plan to work with dogs for years to come! I am currently working part time(mon-fri after 4pm), so that leaves plenty of time during your work day for me to visit with your pet! For morning/afternoon visits, I can drop in any time before 4pm(latest drop in 3:15p), so I would be perfect for those lunch time pick-me-ups that pets love! If you work night shift and need a late night drop in, I'm your choice! I am available all week after 8pm(earliest pm drop in would be 8:15pm) for walks, potty breaks, or late night snacks! I am confident in my leash walking skills and care abilities. I am also well versed in containment and different types of behavior styles in dogs. Whether they are grumpy or happy-go-lucky, I am confident in my ability to provide excellent care.
“I’m so glad that we found Emily! Our two dogs loved her! She was very responsive to our requests and easy to communicate with. She seemed to truly enjoy spending time with our pups and was very respectful of our home. I highly recommend her!”

Riviera pet parents share their Rover experiences
Michael stayed with our 4 pups over the weekend & was very patient with them even though Otis have him a hard time. Michael let Otis come to him in his own time. This was the 1st time we were away & didn't feel we had to keep checking on them the whole time. We were able to actually enjoy our short vacation. Thank you Michael for that peace of mind!
Katy was great with my dog Laney! I was nervous because Laney can be a handful and I have never left her with anybody before. But Katy was patient with her and gave her lots of attention! Katy was always quick to respond to messages through Rover as I was booking and then while she stayed with Laney. She also sent me regular updates and pictures. I look forward to booking Katy again!
