âAbsolutely amazing! I love that itâs a family business. Sent photos and kept us updated. Our flight got canceled and they were happy to come back out to fed and walk our dogs until we could get home. It took that stress off our shoulders. All my dogs were happy and healthy. Would recommend 10/10.â

âAfter having a terrible experience with another sitter through Rover I cannot recommend Jeweliana & Riley enough!!!! They provided easy communication and lots of photos completely erasing the stress I normally feel when we are away from our pets on travel. We will definitely be using them again!!!â

âCathryn was wonderful to work with! She was able to watch my babies for me on short notice when another sitter had to cancel. She took amazing care of my two large dogs and updated me often on how they were doing throughout the weekend. I will definitely hire her again for future trips!â

âJamie was quick to fill in on a last minute request. She did a same day meet n greet and the dogs were immediately comfortable with her. She sent photos and updates the entire time she was housesitting with our 2 dogs and gave us peace of mind that they were in great hands while we traveled. Will be reaching out to her again when we travel.â

âCharles did an amazing job with Koda. I received daily updates and pictures on how he was doing. He was even even able to help out an extra night when our flight was cancelled. I would definitely book him again in the future.â
âAdam was a wonderful sitter for our pets and home. It was very apparent he took excellent care of our pups and they felt safe and comfortable. He was incredibly communicative with updates/pictures which was so appreciated. We will definitely book him in the future!â

âMadison and her fiancĂŠ took such great care of Ollie for a week for us! I have no complaints. They went above and beyond and it was like we never left when we got home to our pup. He seemed happy, content and well taken care of!â

âMany is such a wonderful person and we appreciate the love and care she provided to our four dogs at our home while we were away. We had a meet and greet before our departure and the dogs took to her right away! She provided us with updates letting us know if anything seemed off and when everyone was getting along well while we were away. The next trip we take, Mandy is going to be the first person we call. Thank you again for your help!â
âDulce was fantastic! She stayed with my three dogs and cat over a weekend and took great care of them. She gave them plenty of head scratches and sent pictures/videos. Definitely will rebook with her in the future.â

About: My partner and I donât currently have any pets and we will love to take care of yours! â¤ď¸ Iâve been around dogs since age four and since then Iâve cared for numerous dogs, including those with special health needs. đĽđIâve been a Rover sitter for several years and now provide full-time, attentive care. Comfortable with administering medications and following detailed care instructions, I ensure every dog feels safe and loved. If youâd like to meet up at a dog park to ensure that this is the best fit for you and your furry friend, just let me know! I do this because I love animals! I am a full time dog sitter and trainer I follow each petâs usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I start mornings around 7 a.m. with feeding, followed by walks and playtime. Throughout the day, pets receive regular potty breaks, attention, and companionship. I provide constant supervision, and pets are only crated if needed or requested by the owner. I rarely leave the house, and if I do, itâs only for short, essential errands and never for more than an hour. In a clientâs home, I maintain their space respectfully while ensuring their pet receives attentive, reliable care at all times. I live in an apartment, but I make sure dogs get plenty of daily walks, exercise, and enrichment. I prioritize regular outdoor time so pets stay happy, active, and mentally stimulated, even without a yard.

âJohana responded very quickly to my booking which I really appreciated and communicated easily with me! She gave me peace of mind while I was out of town that my kitty was taken care of!â

âIzchel was amazing! It was my first time using a dog/house sitter. She took great care of my 3 standard poodles. She stayed at my house with them & everything was neat & tidy & my dogs were calm & relaxed when I got home. She kept me updated while I was away & asked questions if she needed clarification. She went above & beyond, I will definitely use her again.â

About: I have been raised around pets my whole life and have had 5 puppies we raised as a family. I have experience with potty training, walking, regular training, and just being playful with the dogs in general. I love animals and this is more fun for me than anything. I have free time throughout the week that I would love to dedicate to taking care of any animal that needs attention! I will be in town for some time and needing to make some extra money so I will have plenty of time. We have no pets so I will be able to give all my attention to any animal that needs it. We are staying in a complex that had plenty of grass area to play and also right across the street from a park. When at a clients home I would do as asked and give the pets plenty of love and attention and play time!
About: Hello, I'm Mylan! I have 6 years of dog walking and canine care experience. In the past I've walked small dogs, medium dogs, large dogs, senior dogs, high-energy dogs and multiple dogs at the same time (all with varying energy levels). I enjoy running and walking long distances with all dogs. In addition to walking I've done sitting for dog owners, cat owners, and rabbit owners (I also have experience caring for reptiles and fish!). Your dog's safety and comfort is my top priority, and I will take every measure necessary to ensure both. I will always bring bottled water and a clean bowl to keep your pet hydrated on long walks and runs. I can provide you with updates throughout the day with messages and pictures so you know what's going on with your dog. I am available all day Monday thru Friday and some weekend availability. I'm currently working part time so I have a lot of flexibility and energy for scheduling long or shorts walks and any care that is needed. I always put your pet's needs first, meaning that their safety and comfort are my top priority. I follow your instructions to the letter and I am not afraid to reach out with questions if I feel unsure about something.
âPam is wonderful. She is not only reliable and communicative with me, but she is most importantly terrific with my pups. Both Clarence and Mary seemed to love her on sight. She worked well with me when our plans changed and was always agreeable. Pam is everything one hopes for as a house-sitter, pet-sitter. She cared for my home in a way that was respectful and consistent, but most of all, she cared for my furbabies. Thanks, Pam! We know we will reach out again! Best, Whitneyâ

Royal Terrace pet parents share their Rover experiences
Johanna is super dedicated to each animal she cares for. This is the second home/animal sitting she has done for us and we are so happy with the care she took with our animals and our home. We received daily photos and updates on our fur babies that put us at ease. We even found extra photos on our counter when we got home that were so appreciated. Johanna is a great communicator and really cares about the animals she pet sits. She follows the diets for our animals and takes the pet messes in stride. We will continue to use her for future needs!

Megan is fantastic! This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous. My cat has health issues and I wanted someone to stay overnight with her while I was away. Megan met with me before the booking started. When I met her, I immediately had peace of mind. While I was gone, Megan frequently sent updates and pictures (even though Mia hid the whole time). I was able to relax and enjoy my trip knowing Mia was being well taken care of. I wonât be planning any travel until Mia is feeling better but I am so happy that if I do need to travel I have an excellent sitter!
