“Our dog and guinea pig were well taken care of while we were gone for 5 days. Great communication, frequently updates, and left the house cleaner than when she arrived. Also willing to help out when our flight was delayed and rerouted. Will be happy to book again.”

“Great person and very reliable, our dogs loved her. She fed them, played, took for walks and cleaned up after. We were getting pictures and messages while we were away, it was such relief knowing that the puppies are safe and looked after. Will definitely using her services in the future. Thank you”

“Brandon was great and handled all three of our pups with equal attention and love. He was very respectful of the house and provided constant updates on everything. We were highly impressed and appreciative and will definitely look to have him return. Thanks!”

“Hailey is the best! We are always reluctant having new dog sitters; however, she not only made us feel comfortable, but our dog as well! She was very responsive and we loved the pictures she sent us while we were gone. I highly recommend Hailey!”


“Nicole was amazing! My dog has a very hard time with me leaving, and she was so thrilled to see Nicole and distracted playing with her that she hardly noticed me being gone. They did all of Darby’s favorite things, and I was always updated. I was able to enjoy my trip with having peace that my girl was taken good care of. Will definitely be booking again anytime I am away!”

“Rosabella was excellent, she was patient with my dog who is anxious around strangers, she was on-time and left the house clean. Highly recommend Rosabella.”

“Randi was absolutely wonderful. She was flexible and was very attentive to my dog. My pup is a little on the nervous side, especially with people but she was almost instantly at ease with Randi. Can’t say enough about her.”

“I was so happy to leave my dog in Bill’s capable and caring hands. I got lots of updates throughout my trip and Bill was very attentive to the details and little quirks that my dog has. I look forward to having him back in the future!”

About: Ever since I was little I have loved animals, so much so that when I was 12 I convinced my mother to let me get a dog, despite her fears of them. I raised, trained (haphazardly 😅), and groomed my dog from a puppy to an adult till she died of heart worms. After, I adopted my sister’s dog when she no longer wanted her. Grooming and taking care of her till I went off to college taught me a lot about caring for an older dog. In between dogs and even now I help my friends with their cats, feeding, grooming, and watching over them when their owners are out of town. I have a lot of experience taking care of pets and I am ready to tackle whatever yours may throw at me! I work part time mornings throughout the week so after I get off I have all the time in the world to take care of your pets. I can devote a great deal of time to walking or sitting. The more time you need the more time I get to spend with your cute fur babies making it a win/win. Typically I like to feed pets around every 3-5 hours, but I am perfectly capable of adhering to any sort of schedule or rules you may have regarding feeding times. I am extremely flexible so if there are any specifics when it comes to the care of your pet I will have little to no problem sticking to your routine.
“This is the first time I had someone stay in my home to care for Chica. Alexys was great. She came by the house the day before we were leaving for a meet and greet. She arrived on time, stayed one night overnight, washed the sheets and made the bed. That was above and beyond. And Chica was happy. I would definitely use Alexys again and recommend her to anyone need pet sitting/walking services.”

“Jesse was such a wonderful pet sitter for us during a weekend away! He was friendly, clearly enjoyed the pets, and his communication was awesome— lots of pics and videos to tide us over!”

“Troy and Shalah were wonderful. We had a bit of a mix up with the booking and they were extremely flexible and took great care of my skittish and crazy dog. I would definitely use them again.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, developing a deep passion for their care. Since a young age, I’ve walked countless dogs for family members, gaining valuable experience handling different breeds and temperaments and currently working walking dogs and cats of types of breeds on the platform Wag! My love for animals goes beyond just dogs and cats—I’m comfortable caring for all kinds of animals, big and small. Whether it’s playful puppies, curious cats, birds, small mammals, or even reptiles, I ensure they receive the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m young, fit, and full of energy, always ready to provide the best care, whether it’s running with a high-energy dog, socializing with a shy pet, or tending to the unique needs of different animals.You can also find me over at WAG!CAREGIVER where I have a 94% DIRECT REQUEST ACCEPTANCE RATE AND A 5.0 STAR REVIEW SERVICE WITH MULTIPLE REVIEWS AND 87 completed services. I’m available for boarding, sittings, walks, etc all several days a week and have a flexible schedule. As a full-time college student-athlete, I balance my studies with part-time work through Uber and Grubhub. However, with many of my classes being online, I’m home often and able to provide plenty of attention and care to pets. Whether it’s boarding, exercise, or playtime, I ensure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I live in a spacious home with my mom, featuring a large fenced yard for pets to play safely. My friendly but shy miniature Dachshund enjoys company once he warms up. He’s harmless, but he might “poop his pants” at the sight of anyone new or any new dogs!😂 My girlfriend visits often, adding to the welcoming environment. With great walking routes nearby, I ensure plenty of exercise, playtime, and a cozy, loving space for every pet in my care.
“Matt took great care of our pup while we were on our honeymoon. Before we left Indy had a cut on his foot that required him to wear a bag on his foot and to be wiped with medicine after returning inside. Since this happened the day before we left we didn’t really have a chance to get him used to the process. Matt went above and beyond to care for Indys paw injury and kept us updated. We would highly recommend Matt!”


About: Grew up surrounded by animals, taking care of them is second nature to me. I was raised helping my grandma foster kittens, even helped rehab a bird that fell from our tree. I’ve pet sat for friends and family over the years, regularly walk my aunt’s dog, and have experience house sitting. I also have two dogs of my own, one that is high needs so I am comfortable with more attentive care. I spent time volunteering at an animal sanctuary and even briefly for the SPCA in high school. Overall, I am used to being around all kinds of animals and making sure they are loved and cared for. Currently in between jobs so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I am available from 10am-5pm & 8pm-11pm (if needed) Monday-Friday. I am available 9am-6pm on Saturday’s. Sunday’s I may have availability upon request. I am very attentive to your pet’s needs. They will always be securely leashed and I will always adhere to the requests given by pet parents :)

“This was our first time using Rover and I'll be honest, I was pretty nervous about it. Alina completely put us at ease. Before the booking even started, she came by to meet Lou and Max and go over everything, which made a huge difference. Throughout the stay she was responsive whenever we reached out, and if anything came up on her end she contacted us right away. She treated our boys and our home with genuine care and respect. We came back to the house in better shape than we left it, and she sent us photos of the boys while we were away which we really appreciated. We will absolutely be requesting Alina again for future trips. If you're looking for someone who is responsive, professional, and truly attentive, look no further.”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals varying from hamsters to dogs for as long as I remember. I’ve pet sat for friends numerous times , returned strays to their rightful owners, and of course raised my own fur babies. I love interacting with animals and providing them only the best! Am someone who has always had a passion for animals, Rover has allowed me to provide the car and love your furry babies deserve when you’re away! As I currently work full time but am a very active person, I love being around animals which not only recharges my battery but is also a fun time for them! Being able to match the dogs needs on walks is very important. Whether that’s engaging and active or layed back and relaxed, it’s always a great time!
Somerton pet parents share their Rover experiences
Juliette was awesome! She took great care of my doggies while my husband and I were away. She stayed at my house the entire 4 days. My doggies loved her. I would highly recommend Juliette if you ever need a dog sitter. She will take great care of your dogs for sure.

Kate watched our two dogs and two cats for a week. They were all so well loved and taken care of while we were away. She gave our dog Mickey medicine every day, scooped the cat boxes, played with our dogs and snuggled all of the animals daily. We will definitely use her again!
