About: My experience has been mostly my family and friends. I have taken their animals on walks, bathed them, fed them, played with them. Took them to parks and even trained them on new skills. Since I just graduated I have very open availability and ready to help. I am very organized and dependable, I value time management, my career/education, and most importantly taking care of people and animals. I am currently waiting for the new school year to roll around and continue my education so my schedule is free. I wake up early to work out but that time can be flexible depending on if I have a pet to watch. I keep the animals on the schedule they are used to. Feed them, fill water, walks, clean behind them, playtime, medicine if they need. Also litter box maintenance for cats. Also making sure we’re safe in the house and my phone near me to contact the owners if needed.
“This was our first time using Rover for house sitting and it was worth it! Taryn is so sweet, she kept us updated on our pets and sent us plenty of pictures. We had a meet and greet prior to booking but of course my pets loved her! I knew my babies were in the best hands and look forward to booking with Taryn again! ?”

“Eli was great and extremely professional. He stayed with my 67 pound pitbull (Tank) all day and took great care of him and played with him. I definitely recommend booking Eli and will use his services in the future.”

About: Hello, I'm Katie! I helped my mom run a cat rescue for over 8 years (that includes waking up every 2 hours to bottle feed, giving medication, handling moody kitties, cleaning up constant messes, etc). Since then, I've been trusted to pet sit for friends, coworkers, and family members. I have more experience house sitting with cats than dogs, but I love all pets equally and would be so happy to meet them! I offer overnight stays/house sitting, drop-ins, and dog walking. I am currently pet sitting full time. I am available on weekdays and weekends however early or late as needed, and for as many drop-ins as needed. My schedule is very flexible! The care and safety of your pet is the most important thing to me. I make sure to keep human food out of reach along with plastic bags, cords, or other potentially harmful items. I always try to keep pets entertained, happy, and out of trouble. I am a very clean person and will never leave a mess behind, I can assure your home will be well looked after. I can provide photo or text updates as often as needed!

About: I’ve been a dog lover my whole life! With 2 dogs at home and plenty of other pets within my extended family, I’ve had years of experience with dog sitting. From overnight stays to simple walks around the neighborhood, I love to spend as much time as possible with pets! I’m currently home for the summer, so I have pretty open availability! I am free any time from morning to evening on weekdays. Weekends I tend to be busier during the evenings, but I am pretty flexible regardless. I will care for and be attentative to your pets as needed. I am comfortable taking pets on a walk, feeding them, letting them play outside, or just giving some extra cuddles as needed!

About: I’ve grown up and been around animals my entire life! I am comfortable with animals of all shapes and sizes. I spent my college years dog sitting! I’m currently off for the summer, so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur baby!! During the school year I am open weeknights and weekends! I always adhere to the boundaries set by the owner, and always do my best to honor the routine your animal is so used to!
“Samantha was amazing! She took such great care of all our pets. Our dog was so relaxed when we got home. This was also a last minute booking since our sitter bailed on us and she really saved the day. She sent lots of updates and pics too so we could see all our babies being well care for. We’ll absolutely use her service in the future.”

About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old and have extensive hands-on experience with daily pet care, including feeding, walking, exercising, grooming, and providing companionship. Over the years, I have trained puppies, teaching them basic commands, house training, leash manners, and positive social behaviors through patience and consistency. My lifelong experience with dogs has helped me develop a strong understanding of canine behavior, safety, and individual care needs. I am dedicated to providing a loving, reliable, and safe environment for every pet in my care and treat each animal as if they were my own. I currently work part-time and maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care services. I am skilled at balancing my work responsibilities while ensuring pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need. I am available during many mornings, evenings, weekends, and select weekdays, and I always communicate clearly about my availability. I am committed to being dependable, punctual, and accommodating to meet both pet and owner needs whenever possible.

“Allie was very attentive and communicated every time she stopped by the house to let the dogs out. She sent pictures every time as well as a couple videos. The dogs loved her company and they were well cared for!”

“She was very responsive and easy to work with. Kept us updated on any issues or events that we needed to know about, and with the extra step to bring in our mail while we were gone. Our pups were greatly cared for, and we would absolutely book her again”

“Sabrina was amazing with my pups. Sabrina was very professional. Sabrina was quick to respond to messages and work with us on such short notice. If your looking for the perfect sitter, look no further than Sabrina.”

“Hanna was absolutely amazing with our dogs, Cooper and Zola, this weekend! From the start, she was incredibly kind, sweet, and genuinely caring, you can tell she truly loves what she does. She walked them multiple times and kept us completely at ease with frequent, detailed updates and the best pictures. Her communication was top-notch, and it meant so much to know exactly how they were doing while we were away. Cooper and Zola were clearly happy, well cared for, and loved every minute with her. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Hanna went above and beyond, and we will 100% be booking with her for all of our future needs. Highly, highly recommend! 🐾”

“I highly recommend Maddie. She watched my cats Julius and Junior for a week doing frequent drop ins through out the day. She send me pictures and kept open communication through out the week. I appreciated that!. She went above and beyond with their care, from basic needs cleaning little box, feeding twice a day, to wiping their eyes due to flat faces, play time and cuddles on the couch. I felt at ease the entire trip knowing my fur babies got exceptional care. She was professional, showed up as promised daily on time, locked doors and left everything in place as was. I will 100% be reaching back out for future trips to Maddie.”

About: Greetings, my name is Will. I’m retired military that has traveled the world meeting many great people and pets. Over the years I’ve trained my dogs to a high-level of obedience. I’m currently working on finishing my professional dog training certification. I volunteer with a dog rescue with transporting dogs as well as training a few, so I have experience with dealing with many types of dogs (puppies to seniors) in a number of different circumstances. Though my main option here is dog walking, I can do drop-ins and house sitting. Im retired so I’m available to walk, play, and snuggle with your pet throughout the day. I’m also available to board your pet. I’d like to meet your pet to see if they would be comfortable with staying with me. I have a fenced yard and a friendly and outgoing Aussie for your pet to play with. I go outside with my animals so rest assured yours will never be alone while under my care. Other availability’s: Dog parks, walking trails, private walks in quiet areas.
About: I am an experienced in-home/travelling dog sitter. Having dogs of my own, I realize the convenience and relief I feel when I know that my dog will be cared for in her own environment should we be away. I started off helping out a friend by watching her dog when she went on vacation, and have been dog sitting for over 20 years now. In addition, we have always had a family dog. Most recently our dogs have included Rottweilers and Pit Bulls. I have no breed bias, although my experience has primarily been with larger dogs. I love pets of all sort. I have also had cats and guinea pigs. I would be honored to help you by watching your fur baby. I have recently completed a certification in cat and dog first aid through the American Red Cross. Thanks for considering me! I currently work remote for my full time job, so that will allow me to spend quality time with your pet during the day as well as evenings for pet sits. It also provides me the flexibility to help out with occasional drop ins or walks. I will visit prior to the first event (drop in, walk or pet sit) to review the pet’s routine and any special instructions you may have for me. I want you to be able to provide direction and feel totally comfortable leaving your pet in my care.
About: I treat everyone like family. Your pets will be cared for like my pets- you will be treated like family. I love animals, I have owned two puppies- one currently. I am active, loving, and caring with all animals. I will be detail oriented about all aspects of caring for your animals. I am currently a stay at home dog mom. I love being active but it’s hard to leave your pup at home alone, so I want more ways to do it with him while helping others and socializing him. I have a very open schedule and usually can fit in same day requests:) I already have a pet proofed home so your pets will be safe with me. They will have a bin of toys to choose from, treats (if allowed) to choose from, and lots of love. If I am in your home, know that I am trust worthy and respectful. I will ask lots of questions to make sure I am respecting all aspects of your property and pet. Either way, your pet will get lots of love and attention from me.

Saint John pet parents share their Rover experiences
Was very pleased from the meet and greet through the fur baby sitting time. It snowed and Becca kept an area shoveled for the dogs to go outside and shoveled the front for us to return . Everything seemed the same as we left it and the dogs were very happy to see us but not in an anxious manner. They got along well. Would definitely have Becca back again.
