1. Arlene S.


“Arlene is the best pet sitter for my two trouble makers. Shes very patient , compassionate and attentive to them. She visits my little furr babies three to four times a week. She is very flexible with time and days as i dont have set days off. She is able to accomodate me last minute when i get called into work. Arlene will also call me or text me if one of babies is sick while im at work and make sure their okay before she leaves. She teaches them commands and plays with them in the backyard. My furr babies are always so happy to see her and do their daily routine together. I cant say enough good things about her.”

3. Gabby G.


“Gabby really loves my senior, special need Min Pins. She often texts me and asks how they are doing even on her days off. Gabby has gone above and beyond to complete scheduled drop in visits for my girls even if there was a winter snow storm the night before! I feel very comfortable with Gabby entering my home on an almost daily basis during this difficult time of Covid precautions. All my interactions with Gabby have been pleasant and supportive of my furbaby's needs. I could give no higher recommendation...”

With her extensive experience in caring for both dogs and cats, she truly understands the needs and personalities of each animal. Amber not only provides reliable and attentive care, but she also goes above and beyond to ensure that your pets feel loved and comfortable while you're away. My pets are always excited to see her, and I can enjoy peace of mind knowing they're in such capable hands. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, Amber is the perfect choice!"”

I treat her with love, attention, and care every day. I love being around dogs and taking care of them. Walking with dogs is also my favorite thing to do, since I like activities like walking.

I am an esthetician student. I am available from 4pm to 6pm on mondays,wednesdays and saturdays. Although my schedule can be flexible, feel free to message me about any other times, and I'll do my best to make it work!

It is a small home, so your dog will be safe and secure!

18. Emma B.
About: Hi! My name is Emma, I'm 28 years old and I love all kinds of animals, but especially cats and dogs. I have grown up and cared for both. I am able to walk, feed, and play with any type of dog, big or small. I am also comfortable taking caring of cats from feeding them to changing their litter boxes. Besides taking care of my family’s animals since I was young (I now have 1 cat of my own!) I have been working on Rover for almost 2 years and have built up a regular clientele. I am a responsible young adult who absolutely love cats and dogs and would like the opportunity to take care of your pet for you! I work full time for a pharmaceutical company. My role was primarily remote, but now I have to work on site most days so I am unable to do dog walks during most week days. I am available for house sittings as long as your dogs are able to be home alone for a few hours at a time. My job is flexible enough that I can work from home when needed. I have a car and am willing to travel to take care of your pet and even house sit if needed. As I have a cat and live in an apartment, I am currently not able to board any animals.


19. Laboni G.
“Laboni is amazing! My dog doesn't like a lot of people but he instantly connected with her! She's very caring, sweet and reliable. She's been my go-to for not only petsitting but also housesitting. It's hard finding someone you trust to take care of your furbabies so I really feel comfortable when she's with my little guy Charlie. I almost didn't want to write a review in fear of someone stealing my pet-sitter haha but I guess I'll share! She's great 😊”


20. Albert L.


“This is the second time we’ve used Albert and it won’t be the last. He gives detailed updates and goes above and beyond our expectations. Our pets can’t wait to see him again.”
