I am so grateful we found Kristen! She was reliable, professional, and cared for our dog Bella like her own. She is so sweet and thoughtful. Kristen is a great communicator. I would definitely recommend her to anyone and would absolutely use her services again in the future.

Mackenzie was an absolutely fantastic sitter for our two girls! We were gone for 11 days, and we were a bit nervous as our older lab can be slow to warm up to new people. Mackenzie was so thoughtful and proactive, offering to come by for two separate meet-and-greets before our trip. It made a world of difference and put everyone at ease. While we were away, she sent lots of wonderful pictures and updates, and it was clear our dogs were happy and well cared for. To top it all off, we came home to a house that was even tidier than we left it! We are so thrilled with Mackenzie's care and professionalism. We’ve definitely found our go-to sitter for all future trips!

Having Ally house sit for a week was a great experience! She was very easy to work with, sent a photo and update daily (and I’m sure would have sent more if I requested it) and took great care of my pup and the house - even did some tasks above and beyond what was asked to keep things nice. I would definitely recommend Ally!

Kari did a short notice house sitting for both of my dogs while I had to attend a funeral out of town. I came home to two very happy boys! She communicated with me throughout the day and followed all of the requirements I left to a T.

Emma answered to our last minute in house sitting request, this was our first time using Rover and I couldn’t be more pleased with our experience. Emma was very kind, listened to all our detailed instructions, and made sure our pups were well taken care of. She made sure they went on their walks and got their potty breaks in. Our pups, Oso and Leily, both loved her and quickly warmed up to her. She also sent us pictures of them while we were away to make sure we knew they were doing great. We couldn’t have asked for a better in house sitter. We will definitely be using Emma from now on whenever we need a sitter again!

Kelly was the perfect choice for housesitting my pets. She had her hands full and graciously attended to each pet and their certain needs. My oldest pup had a little separation depression and wasn’t eating a lot so she made her some chicken and hand fed her some nuggets and gave her extra assurance to make her feel okay! I would highly recommend this sitter! She took great care of my pets and my house!

About: I have been a regular pet sitter for friends, family, and coworkers since I was a teenager. I have experience with large or small dogs, elderly dogs, cats, and pets that need medication or other accommodations. I have experience with dog-sitting for up to two weeks at a time. This has sometimes included, but is not limited to, administering medication, cleaning up messes inside and outside, walking, feeding, and bathing. Ensuring the safety, health, and happiness of each pet I take care of is my top priority and it is one of my favorite things to do in the world! I do not have the same schedule weekly, so I will constantly update my availability. I only know my availability up to 3 weeks in advance. Unless I have to work very early the next day, I am available for overnights at least 3 days a week (typically). I am unable to have pets at my house because I live with a family member’s dog that does not do well with other animals. Please give me any and all instructions! I will make sure to follow any routine that I can for your pet to be comfortable. I will provide as many updates/photos as requested.

About: I actually started watching dogs and cats for families I was babysitting and nannying for while they were out of town about four years ago. About 90% of my experience is with extended dog sitting in the owners home. While watching the dogs I not only let them out to potty but also walk them, play with them, and clean up any messes whether chewed or accidents that may occur! I have some owners who like me to stay overnight and others who do not and I am completely okay with either way. I am also comfortable administering medicine or changing bandages. I am always up for taking your dog places too, a dog park or for a bath or simple for a drive! I’m comfortable with cats, dogs, and a plethora of other animals. I can care for any of your loving animals! I hope to get to know you and your fur babies in the future! I currently am a stay at home mom. I have one school age child and a toddler. I am looking for bookings to be able to stay at home with my girls (and my two pups of course). School drop off/pick up is for a short time in the morning and in the late afternoon. Any walks or drop-ins would be scheduled around school drop off and pick up times! I care for pets as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. This can look like feeding on schedule, giving fresh water, administering medications if needed. Each visit includes some play and cuddles too so they feel just as loved as when you are there!

I love that Aimee came for a very thorough "meet n greet". Aimee was wonderful with our two dogs. They warmed up to her immediately. She always got back to me as soon as I texted her. Thank you Aimee for allowing me to feel as ease right away with leaving our babies. Overall positive experience. Thank you.

Lucy was AMAZING. I have had some not very good experiences on rover so I was already a little nervous leaving my (very needy) pup with someone but he loved her right away, he usually takes forever to warm up to people so this was a HUGE surprise/plus. She sent me so many pictures and updates every day to ensure me he was in good hands! He had so much fun playing with Lucy and she never got tired of his endless love for fetch :) Lucy will be the only person I use for my pet sitting needs going forward! I highly highly recommend as this was the best experience I have had with someone watching my pup!
