“Our eperience with Jayna couldn't have been better! Jayna did way more than what was expected. Our baby girl (Lani) was spoiled and well taken care of. Jayna took Lani on her daily walks, snuggled her with blankets at night, sent photo updates of our pup twice a day, and left our home honestly, in better conditions than when we left it! Jayna went above an beyond by bringing in our mail, being on a look out for incoming packages, keeping our backyard grass clean, and leaving my kitchen counters spotless. Couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter. Thanks so much!”

“Olivia was perfect in every way! Especially because it was my first time leaving my puppy for an overnight trip. Her communication, presence and genuine care allowed me to feel confident going away. She also made it feel so natural to synch up with the rhythm and schedule my pup and I had going which I have found rare, but so essential. And he is a growing 5-6 month old puppy. I will absolutely reach out to her first the next time I go away or need a sitter for my pup.”

“Paige was great. She was responsible and did a wonderful job taking care of our little boy and girl. Including looking out for other not typical parts of the housesitting experience. We would definitely hire her again.”

“Melissa did an amazing dog watching my babies!! I felt comfortable with her coming to watch them in my home. I didn’t worry once while out enjoying my weekend getaway. The dogs were happy and not too excited to see me so I know they had a blast!! Thank you Melissa!!!”
“Brenda is amazing. She took care of our cat and dog as if they were her own! They looked like they had so much fun with her. She really went above and beyond! She sent us a lot of updates and was very communicative.”

“William was really good with Otto and took great care of him. He was really receptive with what I was looking for in a dog sitter and went above and beyond. Will definitely choose to have him doggy sit again!”

“Audrey P. is a true animal caregiver and lover. She went so above and beyond to take care of my 2 fur babies during our trip and wedding. She us flexible, a good communicator, and takes lots of cute pictures keeping my mind at ease every step of the way. I will rebook her anytime I need a friend to watch my kitty and special needs dog!! Thanks for everything Audrey!”

“Maria was amazing! She took great care of our three babies- and I know it can be a challenge with 2 senior dogs and a puppy with a lot of energy. She took them all on walks, played with and when we came home she had comforting dog music playing for them. She was very communicative, sent lots of pics of our buddies walking playing and sleeping. The house was immaculate when we returned. Highly recommend!”
About: What sets me apart is how attentive and patient I am with every pet I care for. I understand that every animal has a different personality and comfort level, so I take my time to make sure they feel safe, calm, and cared for during every visit. Whether it’s a walk or a drop-in, I treat each pet like they’re my own and make sure they get not just the basics, but genuine care, affection, and attention. Pet parents can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and consistent every time. I am currently with a lot of free time, trying to stay active and what better way to go for walks than with a dog. I’m very attentive, patient, and reliable. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for during every visit.
“Matt is the absolute best!! Very sweet and kind to my 13 year old black Lab. From the meet and greet I could tell Matt was very sweet to my Lola and empathetic to my anxiety of leaving my elderly pup alone. Matt was very attentive to following the list of directions for my pups eating and med routine and was so kind to send me updates each time food, meds and potty breaks happened. Matt sent tons of pics all day. Already booking Matt for my next trip. Thank you Matt you are an angel.”

I’m happy to crate your pets and even accept puppies.
“Ana was amazing she took banana on lots of walkies and was very good giving her all the love while we were gone on our trip I would definitely book again and recommend you do so if your going out of town.”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. Mackenzie truly treated Boo like her own, and the comfort and care she provided meant so much to me. Boo had an amazing time, and the regular check-ins, photos, and videos gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She even left my apartment cleaner than I left it! I am incredibly grateful and will absolutely be rebooking with her for future travels.”

“Yesenia is fantastic! She cared for our kitties like they're her own. One, in particular, was going through some health challenges, and Yesenia took extra care to tend to her medication and special diet. She also played with them and kept us updated throughout, including lots of pictures.”

“Anna saved the day for our one night Thanksgiving trip. At our meet and greet she asked thoughtful questions. Lexi can be a bit of a nervous nellie, but Anna handled her with TLC and kept us appraised of any concerns that came up.”

“Sarah was great! She’s a quick responder and sent us photos and updates which put my mind at ease. Pepper was cozy and happy upon return. I would highly recommend Sarah!”

About: Animals gravitate to me, and I'm a photographer! While you're away, you will receive amazing photos and videos of your furry family member! I have a special place in my heart for my friend's dog Tripp. He has 3 legs and a strict diet. I love making sure his food is always perfectly prepared and getting all his meds. Whenever I'm with him we always take a trip to the beach. Plenty of window space in my 4runner and cool aftercare tools to clean and dry your furry loved one for the ride home. I've been a commercial photographer for 16 years now, it's time to freelance and build my business outside of working for a company. I love pets, traveling, and meeting new people. Excited to see where this takes me as a photographer and animal lover. I give the furry loved ones the same luxuries I would enjoy. Soft bed with a blanket to curl in, clean water, and food with a tasty treat throughout the day. Car ride adventures and cuddles. Depending on what you choose for them, maybe some soft music or the nature channel on if I'm away. Toys and attention are important! Every furry loved one has their favorite toy!
Rolando pet parents share their Rover experiences
Katherine provides outstanding care for our dog, Bailey, who gets so excited the moment she walks through the door. Beyond her excellent pet care, is a fantastic communicator. We receive updates, notes, and photos daily, which makes being away so much easier. Most importantly, I have complete peace of mind knowing she is in our home; she is incredibly reliable, professional, and treats our home with the utmost respect. She is easily the best dog sitter we have ever worked with, and we feel so lucky to have found her! 🐶

Brooke was amazing! 10/10. She was responsible, punctual, communicative and took great care of our fur baby! We had regular updates and pics which were awesome! We came home to a spotless house. Luna loved Brooke! She was very warm and loving with our pup. Would definitely use Brooke again! Awesome!
Molly was a wonderful pet sitter for my anxious/reactive 60lb gsd who she house sat for 1 month. My dog doesn't do well with alot of people so it was good to find someone who could work with her. She was also flexible in extending the pet sitting due to extraneous circumstances on my part and very thorough in communication. 100% would rebook again.

Chase was such a good sitter for my dog! I was initially worried because I was looking for someone last minute, but Chase put my worries at ease. He was communicative with me when I was away, kept the place clean, and also watered some plants! Would definitely hire Chase again.

Mari was great. She is very communicative and quick to reply. She texted me a photo and update each day, which was very reassuring for me. My dog liked her, she followed directions and my house was kept clean and everything in its place when I returned. I will definitely book Mari the next time I need a pet sitter. Thanks Mari.
