“Karolina was a wonderful dog sitter! She took such great care of our dog, Hank, and kept him happy and comfortable while we were away. It was clear she really cared about him, and that gave us a lot of peace of mind. When we got home, everything was clean and just as we left it—she even tidied up before heading out. We will definitely be using Karolina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and thoughtful pet sitter!”
“I highly recommend Madison for anyone looking for trustworthy, reliable, and loving dog care! Madison took care of my pup + bird and did an amazing job. From the initial meet-and-greet to the regular updates during the stay, Madison was professional, communicative, and genuinely enthusiastic about spending time with my boys! Book with confidence, knowing your beloved pup will be in great hands :)”
“Shayla was very sweet with our kids, especially with our very senior Lady Ume. She kept us updated texting and with photos. Shayla was respectful of our home and we returned home to a clean and tidy house. We have already reserved Shayla for a second visit.”
“Bale was GREAT!! I have a senior pup and she was amazing with her. She sent pictures, checked in and was there at all requested times. I would definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable sitter. Knowing Bailey was happy and in good hands during my weekend away was a huge stress relief.”
“Stone was fabulous! She watched my dog and cat (house sitting) while I was away for 4 days. She is punctual and reliable and she communicated with me throughout my vacation to keep me informed. She also did a wonderful job meeting my fear-reactive dog. She was patient and calm and gave her time to get comfortable with her and now my pup adores her!! I highly recommend Stone for pet sitting, house sitting, or pet walking!”

About: I’ve taken care of various pets since I was 10. I have cared for many dogs, including puppies and seniors, but I also have experience caring for cats and other pets as well. My attention to detail, cleanliness, and energetic attitude will make me the perfect candidate to care for your pet! I have a flexible schedule and reliable transportation, so I’m able to drop in and check on your pet at a moment’s notice. I’m willing to take on jobs last minute and can care for many pets a day. Before my beloved dogs Rosie and Sissie passed away due to old age, I took pride in caring for them every day. I understand the importance of having animals in our lives not just as pets, but as family. Caring for your pets would allow me to utilize my experience and fill the hole in my heart that was caused by the passing of my own fur babies ❤️
About: I’ve always been surrounded by pets, as my father is a veterinarian. I grew up with dogs and cats, but have been around pets ranging from lizards to quails. I’m a bigger guy who can handle stronger animals if needed. I am currently on break from university and have lots of time on my hands! I am available to take care of animals everyday for the summer months, up until mid September. I cannot bring animals over to my apartment, as it is small and I share it with others. I am however happy to stay and take care of any pets that might need more consistent care. I am happy to do overnights or just visits, and have a car that I can use to take any pets anywhere they might need or want to go.
About: My loved ones have trusted me to care for their fur babies. I am detail-oriented and prioritize the safety and wellbeing of those I am caretaking. I work full-time with a hybrid schedule. For this Summer, I can provide pet care Monday and Tuesday after 5pm. Thursday 12-1pm and after 5pm. Fridays anytime after 12 pm. Sat/Sun is open (flexible). I enter all spaces with respect and integrity. Depending on how I’m introduced to your fur baby, whether if it’s with you or solo, I’m engaged and mindful with a steady approach. Through this, I aim to gain yours and your fur baby’s trust.

South pet parents share their Rover experiences
Lauren took such good care of my beagle and two cats. Left my home clean and was super responsive to all of my messages. It felt good knowing my babies were so loved and cared for while we were gone for nearly a week. I will not hesitate to work with Lauren again!!
Alisha is amazing! Our dogs and chickens were well cared for and loved while we were away. We would definitely book her again!
I feel so lucky to have found Grace on short notice! She is extremely knowledgeable about pets and their needs. I felt so comfortable having her watch Mira for a couple of nights. Mira clearly loved her, and they went on a ton of adventures together. I received great photos over the weekend, and came home to a tired and happy pup!
This is my second time booking and amazing per usual. Louie loves the walks, attention, and care given during the stay. Very happy to have a trustworthy, communicative, and attentive sitter!
Bella stayed a night with the pets while we were out of town. She was great to work with, easy to communicate with, and the house was in great shape when we returned. I will rebook her again.
Camille did an excellent job taking care of our anxious pup! She was very patient and gentle with her, and sent daily updates and photos too. It put us at ease while we were away!
Darian have us such relief and peace when leaving our dog. They were the perfect amount of attentive and responsive to put us at ease. We will be forever grateful and definitely recommend in the future.
Kennedy was very kind and treated our dogs like princesses. She followed all instructions and we came home to our dogs looking healthier and happier than when we left them. She sent us pictures and gave us updates. Looking forward to having her watch our dogs again
Madison is an excellent sitter! She stayed at our home for 7 days with our two very large and excitable dogs. This is the longest we have ever been away from them in the almost 9 years we’ve had them. We were very anxious as these dogs are our children. Madison was thorough and went above and beyond to make sure that us and our boys had a good experience. She did brushing, gave medication and helped them brush up on some of their training skills. The boys loved her, and her updates gave us great peace of mind. She left our house very tidy, and was considerate of our space. This was my first experience with rover, and Madison knocked it out of the park. Tucker and Toby can’t wait to have her back next time. 100/10 recommend Madison for your furry friends. ❤️
Caitlin did a great job with our Lucy! We came home to a happy healthy puppy after a couple days away. She was even nice enough to offer to come over early on our departure day just to make sure we had plenty of time to catch our flight! Thanks a Caitlin!
Peyten always does a fantastic job with our kitties and we appreciate her so much! She is patient and kind and helps both of them feel comfortable and loved. Thank you, Peyten!
Kathleen was wonderful! She took excellent care of our dogs and sent multiple updates through our her stay. She took them on a long walk and took great care of our home. Couldn’t recommend her more.
Lily was great with Nico and very friendly. I booked last minute and she was very accommodating, especially for it being a holiday weekend. Would rebook
Jane is super sweet and took great care of our fur baby! We booked her for last-minute boarding over the weekend. She did great at following all our instructions, keeping our pup safe and going on long walks and adventures. She was great at communicating with us and updating us throughout the weekend, and we would definitely book her again!
Chloe was amazing with my sweet, but nervous girl, Tala! She was great at reading how Tala was doing and met her where she was at. Tala warmed up quickly and that meant the world to me! Chloe was also very communicative and left our house in great shape. We’ll definitely be using Chloe again!
Jeanine was a wonderful house sitter for my 3.5 year old dog and 6 year old kitty! Jeanine updated me with photos daily, maintained animal schedule, and was easy to communicate with. I’d hire Jeanine again in a heartbeat, and recommend her to anyone looking for reliable care for their home and pets. Thank you Jeanine!
We really appreciated Mo coming to our house and watching our dog while we were away for 5 days. Our dog is an older dog that needs a little bit of special care. Mo did wonderful job of taking care of her. When there was an unexpected question of our dog being hurt, Mo was immediately communicative. The problem was fairly quickly resolved, and she followed up after to keep us up to date. We felt very comfortable with how she handled the situation, her communication and how she cared for Alice. Mo left the house in wonderful condition, and everything was perfectly clean when we got home. Would definitely recommend her services!
Responsible, loving, communicative, respectful… Zachary was a fantastic sitter, and my dogs had happy tired faces every day. I wouldn’t hesitate to have him back!
