“Amazing and always great to talk to, made sure I was able to be reassured on my vacay that my pet was well taken care of. Would love to book again amazing individual and loves your pets!”

“Lydia was so great to work with. She sent multiple updates about how our dogs were doing. She obviously really loves dogs and does so well with them. We feel so much better about planning trips in the future when we know we can call upon Lydia to watch our pups.”

“Stacey was amazing! Our baby has pretty high energy and he was having a really hard time the first day but she had so much patience with him & kept working with him to make him feel more comfortable. She even did daily check ins with me. We will definitely be using her again! :)”

“Aaron stayed at my house for two nights. He told me that my little dog sat in the chair with him a lot. He walked them twice a day as I requested. I was consider using Aaron again.”


“Ashley was great with our two dogs. We had a last minute need and Ashley came by the night before to meet our dogs and arrived the next day on time and took great care of them. Great experience from start to finish!!”

About: Have been around dogs my entire life. I have siblings with multiple dogs and whenever they are out of town I am always the one they have watch them. Currently just graduated and I don’t start my job until June. I’m free all times of the day and any day of the week works. Spend time with them and make sure they’re are staying out of trouble. Treat every animal the right way when taking care of them at all times.
“My first time using Rover, and I’ll definitely be using it again thanks to Christina. Being 600 miles away from my pet and leaving her with a complete stranger had my mind worried but quickly eased with how well Christina was taking care of my Bella”

“Rebecca was very responsive and detailed so she knew what was required of the dogs. We got daily updates with pictures and comments. The dogs were very well cared for, the house was clean, and the dogs were happy! We would definitely use her again.”

About: I've primarily cared for dogs, including puppies and seniors, but I also have experience with cats, and small rodents. My dog is 17 years old, so I am very familiar with working with senior animals. I love all animals, and I will take great care of your pet! I'm a student looking for some work over the summer. I can do walks and pet sitting every day of the week, with a day's notice for walks and a week's notice for pet sitting. To ensure the safety of the pets I am caring for, I make sure to follow all of the instructions left by the pet's parent. When out on walks, I stay very aware of both the pet's behavior and our environment to make sure that our walks are safe.
“Grace did a wonderful job with an overnight stay at my house with my three pets. She is very attentive and always easy to communicate with before, during, and after the stay! Highly recommend Grace!!”

“Leah was an absolute lifesaver! After struggling to find a responsive sitter, Leah answered our call immediately. I was a bit nervous because our dog, Ava, can be skittish and barky with new people, but Leah handled the meet-and-greet perfectly and asked great questions. Despite Ava not making the best first impression, Leah wasn't hesitant at all and accepted the booking. Within just three hours of the stay starting, Leah and Ava were already friends! Leah is a great communicator, met all our dogs' needs, and was incredibly respectful of our home. We felt completely at ease during our trip. We’ll definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her!”

About: I've taken care of pets all of my life. From puppies all the way up to seniors. I love them all. They all need someone to care for them and feel the extra love especially when their normal family is away. I'm currently flexible and can fit pet care into my daily routine. Occasionally, I will pick up an additional job. But that shouldn't interrupt with taking care of what I love to do and that is to take care of fur babies. I would rather take care of your pets in their environment due to the fact that they are most comfortable there. I also have two fur babies of my own. But I feel as if fur babies are normally happy in their own surroundings.
“Elizabeth was wonderful!! She's like family to us now. Great communication and was wonderful with our dog and cat. First time visit/stays are always the hardest, and our kiddos were happy and content when we came home. We feel like we have our freedom again!! Thank you so much Elizabeth! :)”
“Kimberly was so good with our little cat! She was so kind and took great care of our home and fur baby! She even gave our cat who doesn’t isn’t good with medication her meds twice a day and sent us pics of our baby while we were on vacation! Will absolutely be booking with her again!”


About: Hey there! I love all animals!! I have had two dogs, and I love to dog sit for family and friends for up to weeks at a time. Spending time with animals is a great love of mine! I am a full time college student (home for the summer), but I currently work both part-time and occasionally remotely, so I will always try to make time for your pups. I am usually available evenings, weekends overnight, and weekend mornings. I am not able to sit pets in my own home, as my current dog has anxiety. His behavior and my work with him in training has really extended my abilities to work with many types of dogs! I feel that my expertise is in teaching tricks, rewarding good behavior, and helping dogs manage their bigger emotions, like fear or urges to bark.

This is the first time I've used Rover.com. I was a bit nervous having a perfect stranger staying in my house. I shouldn't have worried. Shelly was great. My dog is healthy and happy and my house is fine. I was surprised to find she had washed the bedding and towels she used and remade the bed. Thanks, Shelly.

Aaron was a lifesaver for us. We needed someone last minute to stay with Duke, and he responded incredibly quickly and stepped in without hesitation. He made sure our little guy was well taken care of, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We really appreciated his reliability, communication, and would definitely reach again in future!
Elizabeth was wonderful!! She's like family to us now. Great communication and was wonderful with our dog and cat. First time visit/stays are always the hardest, and our kiddos were happy and content when we came home. We feel like we have our freedom again!! Thank you so much Elizabeth! :)
Christina was fantastic! She took excellent care of our pets while we were away. We have two big dogs and three cats, and they all settled in with her super quickly and were very comfortable! She sent plenty of pictures and updates and also took great care of our home. We definitely would have Christina pet sit again in the future!

Michelle was able to come to the house to meet our boy before confirming which helped ease our anxiety of leaving him. She house sat for us since our boy doesn't like to be alone at night. Captain had a great time with Michelle. She fixed his blankets for him and loved on him. Thanks so much Michelle!
