Marlene was an amazing sitter, when we went out of town for the first time without our 2 dogs we were so worried about them but she took excellent care of them, followed their routine perfectly and even sent us photos throughout the day! We are definitely going to be booking with her again when we leave town, she is our forever sitter!

Katie is awesome!! She took amazing care of our pups and left our apartment just as we left it. She even went above and beyond to make sure they were safe and comfortable when our AC unexpectedly stopped working, and it got up to 84 degrees inside! We couldn’t thank her enough!

We are so grateful Bailey spent her weekend with our two dogs! We usually have family help us but have found that harder to organize lately and were hopeful to find someone who could help out. We can wait to book with her again! Things she did that made us super comfortable having her stay in our home with our dogs: - Asked great questions about the house & dogs at the meet & greet prior to her stay. - Came before we left so that the dogs could be with her as we packed up. No whining when we walked out with our bags which is HUGE for our yorkie! - Communicated throughout the trip and sent photo updates. We came home to two super happy pups and it was so nice not having to worry about picking them up on our way back.

This was our first time using Rover and I'm so glad I found Sahara. She came by beforehand to meet our dog Vito and took good care of him (and the house!) during her stay. Our dog isn't great with strangers and we were nervous about the whole process, but it only took him a day to warm up and let her walk him which was the most we could have hoped for. I cannot recommend her enough! We already have another vacation booked with her.

Lisa was great with our cat and our dog. I think our dog was sad to see her go. I would recommend Lisa for any house sitting or drop in needs you have.

Mr. John as our Pomeranians refer to him is amazing. He was open to our requests to get our senior Pomeranian to eat her food, sometimes by hand, and let her graze until she finished, checking on her in a separate room so her sister did not eat her dinner for her. He followed all asks we had of him, left our home near and tidy, and seemed to enjoy being with our dogs. That is precious to us and our anxieties over leaving our seniors. We will be rebooking him!!

Kylie answered my request quickly and set up a meet and greet immediately. Sofia is very shy but took to her immediately. Kylie is obviously great with dogs. She also offered to come earlier if there was a thunderstorm when I told her Sofia was terrified of thunder. Reliable, kind, and great with dogs! I came home to a happy puppy.

Serena is a true animal lover! She was exactly who we needed to watch our pups so that we could feel completely at ease and comfortable while we were away. She sent photos and even kept notes on how things went while we were away. The amazing surprises kept coming too when she left a beautiful drawing of both our dogs on the fridge! She’s a very talented artist as well as an amazing pet sitter.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every shape, size, and age. From something as simple as a walk to things more complex much as around the clock care. I’m currently working part-time and will have plenty of free time to take care of pups! I’ll always have open availability on Friday and Saturday. My schedule is very flexible if needed. I live in a spacious dog proof apartment, meaning anything that could be potentially dangerous or easily destroyed is safely tucked away, even for the most mischievous of dogs. The complex is surrounded with plenty of dog friendly parks and walkways for exercise and potty breaks. I have an easy going elderly tea cup yorkie that can keep your fur baby company if they prefer a canine companion. I can also crate my dog if needed and vice versa.

Having peace of mind when on vacation is priceless. Kyle gave us the peace of mind when he was watching our fur babies while we left town. He took really good care of our dog and cat, as well as our plants and the house. He is very responsible, answered all of my text messages immediately, cuddled and loved our animals and left our house spotless. A fantastic sitter I can highly recommend. We will request him again very soon.

As pet owners to a senior dog and very social cat, we wanted to try something other than boarding when we went out of town for a week. This was our first time using Rover (and a house/pet sitter) and I could not be happier with the experience. Alexa went above and beyond to take great care of our babies and we are so grateful that we found her! She was punctual, responsible, and our animals immediately loved her. She was easy going and very communicative leading up to and throughout her stay. The daily updates and pictures gave us such peace of mind and we knew that the house and our furbabies were in great hands. Now that we've found Alexa and see how comfortable our animals were with her, she will be our go-to pet sitter in the future. Coming from an anxious animal owner, trust me, she's great and you will not regret booking her.

About: I’ve been the go to person for cat sitting for my friends and family for awhile now, and now I want to offer any other cat parents peace of mind. I currently have a 3 month old kitten and I’ve worked with several sassy seniors. I love all the kitties and I take lots of pictures to send to you! I am mostly looking to work with cats since I am allergic to dogs but in emergencies I can most definitely stop in and check on them! Growing up I actually had two dogs and despite my allergies dogs are the sweetest. I’m currently a student and stopping in on your cats is the most perfect break! I’m free to stop by in between classes and then I have all day and night available on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I have an array of treats if your kitty is safe to partake and years of experience getting my own cats up, moving, and playing!

We had to go out of State for a memorial service soon after moving to the US from abroad with our senior pups. We were very stressed and anxious about leaving our dogs as both have special care requirements and were still orientating to our new home. Katers was an absolute pleasure to work with. I cannot recommended her enough. She was just fantastic! She cared for our seniors, administered insulin by injection, cleaned eyes, gave pills, fed, walked and cared for our dogs by housesitting in our home for a week. Both Roscoe and Chase absolutely loved Katers. Katers was so responsive with plenty of photos, updates and texts on how they were doing at all times. This made us so much more relaxed and at ease whilst we were away. Roscoe is blind and diabetic and Katers took extra special care of him ensuring he felt safe with extra cuddles and couch time. In all the pics you could see he was in heaven. She was also a master at administering his shot. Chase was very sad to see Katers leave when we returned and is still looking in the guest room for her. We came home to happy dogs, a tidy home and have found our trusted US sitter! Thank you Katers from the bottom of our hearts and paws! Xoxo

About: I’ve taken care of many animals before including my own at home. I know how to help train puppies and I know how to help kitten learn how to use the litter box. I work part time at the chick fil a close to me for about 5 hours but I have people in my home to help me take care of any animals that I am not able to be right there with them. I do not have a fenced in back yard, because it is a open apartment area but we have fields and so many fun places to run. I have 2 kittens that are very friendly and curious but they have their own space if they like.
