“Abhay was absolutely amazing. On first contact, his enthusiasm to meet and greet both us an our animals was encouraging. We knew from first meet that we could be confident and comfortable leaving our babies and our home in his care for two weeks. We were not wrong. Everything went as planned and our babies and our home were cared for perfectly according to our requests. We would, without question, request his services again and highly recommend to others.”
“This is a repeat booking with Maddie. Maddie is such a great caretaker of our dog and home! Denney is very comfortable with her and happy to be at home instead of a kennel! Maddie sends pictures to us and takes Denney on walks, even cleans up his poops in our backyard- definitely wouldn’t have expected that. Maddie leaves our home spotless- I would definitely recommend using Maddie to care for your pets in your home.”
“Kelly was awesome. From our initial meet and greet to her pupsitting at our home for a few days, the process couldn’t have been any better. Communication was 100%. From the fun photos Kelly sent daily, we could tell our pups were so happy. We have 3 pups and 2 have special needs and she nailed it! We felt totally comfortable and will use Kelly’s service again.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for most of my life. Growing up, I regularly helped my stepmother with her pet sitting, which included overnight stays, feeding, walking, and making sure pets felt comfortable while their owners were away. As an adult, I continue to provide pet care for some of my own clients and some of the families my stepmother has worked with over the years. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and ages. I’m also a pet owner myself as my family and I currently have two dogs and a cat, so I know firsthand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pets. I’m flexible. I work from home so as long as the travel is within reasonable distance, the pups aren’t too heavy of a barker, and there is privacy then I’m happy to take my work with me if it’s for a lengthy day stay or overnight. For drop ins, it would need to be before 8am and after work at 430pm or weekends I’m off! I follow all care instructions. I respect each client’s home and keep the environment clean and secure, including checking gates, doors, leashes, and other safety measures. I also like to provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and well cared for.
About: I've always loved dogs and cats and felt very passionate about them. I have two years animal shelter experience taking care of dogs and cats. This included feeding several different types of foods and diets to pets, ensuring pets' safety, cleaning cages and kennels, cleaning litter boxes, and taking out dogs into the yard. I am available most days and times every week to care for your pets. I offer mostly drop ins and I do have exceptions like I will be going on vacation this month so just message me within one day to request a booking. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I pay attention to dogs and cats body languages to ensure their safety needs and emotional needs are met. I let pets come to me first so that they can feel comfortable and safe around me. I treat every pet with respect and if they do not want to say hi yet, that is totally fine with me I will feed them and clean litterbox, etc and they will warm up to me eventually. I watch puppies and young dogs very carefully so that they do not get into trouble and I always make sure the floors are puppy/dog proofed.
“Zahara took great care of our dogs - there were huge storms and a multiple day power outage during our trip, and she was very responsive and handled it all calmly. We’re very grateful. Thank you, Zahara!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats ranging from puppies to seniors. owning two cats myself and have owned a dog previously i am fun loving and charismatic to the needs of the individual I work 7-3 but am able to go for walks before and after, during the evening, and anytime on weekends. i am willing to take a range of walks from short quick walks to long walks. I care for my pets in my home by cleaning up after the litter box and walks, feeding regularly, and providing lots of love and pats.
“Isabelle made me feel really comfortable going through this process, the first time using a rover house sitter. She took great care of Bonnie, sent lots of pics and updates, and left my home so clean and tidy!! Will definitely be requesting Isabelle again, and so should you!!!!”
“I was overwhelmed by how much my dogs enjoyed spending time with Brian ("Barry"). When I arrived home after a short trip, they were completely bonded to him and wouldn't leave his side. I loved the daily pictures of my two dogs. They were so well cared for and actually smiled for the photos. Barry kept in touch frequently to let me know that all was well. Shelby and Luke loved going out for walks with him. He kept my home safe and spotless, and my gang was in absolute heaven spending time by his side. I very much hope that I can have him stay again if ever needed. He is a gentle and highly responsible pet sitter!”
“I could not recommend Shauna more! She stayed at our home with our pup for over a week while we were on vacation and our house and dog could not have been in better hands. She sent wonderful updates/photos and cared for our place as if it were her own. Having someone so responsible while being away made our trip just that much more enjoyable. We can hardly wait to have her back and I know our furry friend agrees! Thank you, Shauna!”

“Catherine was awesome - we had 3 pups under her watch and all were looked after great (walked, fed, and played with) and had a fun. They were tired when we got back, so we know they enjoyed it!”
“Nicole and Steve did an amazing job looking after our Zona! We were away for a weekend and wanted someone who can stay at our place, since our dog is a senior with poor vision. Zona felt really comfortable with them. Nicole updated us daily with pictures. Her experience with animals made us feel at ease and we knew Zona is in good hands. We came back home to a happy dog and a clean house. Nicole and Steve are great and we will definitely use their help in the future!”
“Colleen did a wonderful job watching our dog for a week while we were out of town. She left our home extremely clean and was very communicative with updates and photos. We’d recommend her for anyone looking for pet care and house sitting!”
“Danielle was great! She shared great updates and pics of kuzco while we were traveling and it was clear how much she cared about him being comfortable and having a good time with her!”
“Allegra was absolutely fantastic! She definitely loves dogs and both our Great Danes were very well cared for while we were gone. In addition, Allegra was not only very easy to communicate with but she also left the house cleaner than when she got there which was a great way to come home from a weekend away. We highly recommend Allegra!!”
“Alyssa was an amazing dog sitter! She sent daily updates with photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was very responsive, informative. It was such a relief knowing our dogs were in great hands. We would absolutely trust Alyssa to watch our dogs again!”
“Isabella was wonderful and took great care of our dog while we were away over the weekend! She was very responsive and sent photos and details of what they did together, which made leaving him so much easier knowing he was in great hands!! Will absolutely be using her again!”

Tiesha is easily a 5 star review!! I was so nervous to leave my kitties while we went away, in a new house, with a new sitter. Tiesha was *super* communicative the whole time and took excellent care of them. This was the first time I was away that my boy cat actually ate! She was polite, courteous, respectful, clean, and most importantly: trustworthy!!!
Rebecca and James were the best with Tolstoy! They were so kind, attentive, and thorough. I would recommend them to anyone. We were sent tons of pictures and videos with very detailed information about his day. He had the time of his life! They were very accomodating to his active lifestyle and loved on him a lot. I could tell he was well cared for and as happy as was possible with us away. They are just genuine dog people who will really understand your dog's personality and preferences.
Alex was fantastic!! She was early to showing up, she came prepared for the day, and even though my of was being an absolute booger she was so patient with him and understanding. Alex was great with updates and thin to make Apollo as happy and comfortable as possible. She was fantastic with Moops as well. 10/10 recommend she was so professional and tentative
