“Jen was tremendous. She was highly communicative and timely. My cat appreciated the love and pets, and I appreciated knowing that he was being well cared for.”
“Did stop in visits for my dog Gracie on my wedding weekend. She had never been boarded so rover seemed like a good idea. Ciara seemed to get along with Gracie when she came by to meet me and she sent at least 1 picture for each trip. She got there early to get Gracie out which was important since she was just coming off a bladder infection. I Will contact Ciara before my next trip and would be happy to have her watch gracie again.”
“Thank you for braving the cold weather! You’re always so punctual and reliable, no matter the weather! My pups and I appreciate your willingness to always take care of them while I’m away! Thank you!”
About: I work from home (even pre-pandemic) with my terrier mix assistant, Mochi. I have many years of experience with dogs, as pets and as a volunteer at a local animal shelter. Not currently accepting new clients, as Mochi is now a grumpy old man and not interested in new friends. Why I love dog sitting I have had a dog since I was a child. I have always loved dogs, especially rescues. Having another dog or two around gives my dog a chance to socialize & play while I work. (Otherwise he just sits in my lap or at my feet) About my yard We have a large fenced backyard to play in, to chase squirrels, & for potty breaks, but also take walks around the neighborhood.
“I love the care and detail she includes. We always get a few photos of the pets, and she records the pee breaks, poop stops, and water breaks which is really nice!”
“Bayley did a great job with all 3 of our dogs! She came over in the morning for breakfast; as we needed help because our reg dog-sitter's schedule changed. She jumped right in and was very flexible! Def will use Bayley again!!”
“Eleanor watched my kitty while I was away and she was amazing!!! Always communicated what was going on and sent me pictures each day to update me! I will rebook her anytime I need a pet sitter, I highly recommend working with her! 😊”
“Kumiko was the perfect sitter for my high-energy big dogs. They loved her! She took tons of photos and responded immediately to any of my messages. We will be looking for her again!”
“Erin, thank you so much for taking care of Nillie on short notice! You gave me piece of mind that Nillie wasnt alone all day while out on a day trip.”
“We highly recommend Olivia! She has taken care of our babies several times now. She is definitely our go-to when we need someone. Do not hesitate to hire her!”
“This is my 5th or 6th time using Liz. Every time she sends good pictures and her communication is great! Fast responses, clear pictures and happy dogs every time. I don’t recommend giving short notices if you don’t have to but my job is last minute demanding and she’s been the best at responding last minute.”
“Donai was exceptional! I knew when she came to meet Alice and Hank and she got on the floor to meet them, and asked for some treats to win them over, that she had already won over my approval. She gave me daily updates and daily pictures. It made me so happy on my trip to both see them, and also see that they were being well cared for and loved. Would definitely book Donai again!!”
“Jacqueline was amazing! She fit me in on a super short notice when I took an unplanned day trip. She was extremely communicative and kind, and even offered to do extra tasks that I hadn’t asked of her.”
“We were very happy with William and our cat Toasty was too! William was quick to respond to the booking request and other communications. Our cat warmed up to him right away and he sent several pictures of them hanging out. Would definitely book with him in the future :)”
“Highly recommend Chris! He was a last-minute lifesaver to my two kittens. After our initial meeting I felt very confident and safe leaving him to check-in on them. And as expected, he did nothing but provide the exact care and regular correspondence I had hoped for. Thanks Chris!”

We were really happy with the care she gave our dog while we were away. At first our dog was a little shy and unsure, but she eventually warmed up to her and started getting excited for their walks and playtime. I was honestly nice seeing her look forward to the visits. She always made sure our dog was fed and had fresh clean water, and even with only 30-minute visits, she still took the time to walk and play with her. Our dog can pull a lot during walks, but she handled her really well and seemed patient with her. Overall we were satisfied with her care and appreciated the updates and time she spent with our dog while we were away. We’d definitely consider booking with her again. Thank you again!
Katelyn was very thorough in making sure she was prepared to sit Gusty and knew all of his needs ahead of time. She made the process incredibly easy for me and was very communicative and demonstrated that she genuinely cared about Gusty. I would gladly rebook in the future.
Highly recommend Chris! He was a last-minute lifesaver to my two kittens. After our initial meeting I felt very confident and safe leaving him to check-in on them. And as expected, he did nothing but provide the exact care and regular correspondence I had hoped for. Thanks Chris!
First time Rover user - and boy am I glad I booked with Becca. Becca was absolutely wonderful for Walker’s first Rover stay! From the start, her communication was excellent, which made the whole experience so easy and stress-free. Knowing Walker was in such good hands gave me total peace of mind. You can tell she genuinely cares and treats the animals she watches like her own. The best part was getting pictures of Walker in the middle of my workday — it completely made my day and reassured me that he was happy, comfortable, and having a great time.I’m so grateful for the care she gave him and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend Becca to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive!
