“Hope was amazing. Constantly checked in with us regarding our dogs and took great care of them. Sent lots of photos so we knew the boys were OK. 100% would go with her again.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for Reggie. Not only was he so well cared for and loved, but our home was too. Ellen truly went above and beyond in every way, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a happy pup and a spotless house! We are incredibly grateful and would recommend her to anyone without hesitation.”
“She went above and beyond for our pets when we were away. We have two cats and a dog, and she did a phenomenal job of taking care of them and make sure that they feel cared in love for at all times. She kept us updated and sent us cute photos of them daily!”
“Nicolette is great! She is very responsive and sent us pics and updates when she was watching Wally. Wally is an anxious dog, especially when we leave him, but he was great with Nicolette.”
“Fantastic stay as always! Finn LOVES Dan, who treats him like family & this is a major win for us too since we are able to enjoy our vacation with peace of mind. We love receiving so many sweet updates and photos & returning home to a happy pup!”
“Taylor is a great pet sitter! I am a self proclaimed crazy pet parent and I get really nervous about leaving my pets with someone else. However, I didn’t worry at all when Taylor watched my dogs and cats. She took excellent care of them and they were happy all weekend! I will definitely be using Taylor again in the future.”
“Liz was great with my reactive pittie, Winnie. Winnie can come on strong when she meets new people and Liz’s calm demeanor was great to balance that out. Got lots of pictures and regular updates and Winnie seemed to have a great time!”
“Luke was incredible! We were gone for 5 days, entrusting our large, high energy, chaotic dog and 2 cats with Luke. Luke kept us apprised of any issues, while also fostering a sense of trust. I highly recommend Luke!”
“rebecca was absolutely wonderful with my dog inez. there was a heat wave, an air quality alert, and a tornado watch and rebecca made sure my dog was safe and content. i got regular updates and pictures and i will definitely reach out again for rebecca’s services and recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter :)”
“Leah stayed with my 100lb pittie over the weekend and she was absolutely a delight to work with. She sent us multiple updates and pictures a day, and took our guy on lots of walks which we appreciate so much! We came home to a clean house and happy pup! We will definitely be using Leah again!”
“I would highly recommend Nathan! Nathan truly saved us in a really hard situation where another rover sitter abandoned our dog mid-stay (because my dog was anxious and barking), and we were out of town. Nathan immediately offered to help even though he had never met my dog or myself before. He listened to me talk on the phone for over 20 minutes about my dogs complicated medication schedule and assured me he was happy to help. Nathan sent constant updates and went above and beyond to spend extra time with my dog. I will 100 percent be booking Nathan next time I need a sitter and my dog adores him!”
“So happy to have found Sydney to stay with my dog while I was away for a week! Everything went smoothly and she provided daily updates and photos. I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”
About: Light hearted, friendly, and easygoing are words that are often used to describe me. I've always been a dog lover and am constantly asked how I've been able to train my dog to be so well behaved. My secret is love, and plenty of walks. I've always wanted to do something that makes a difference and I believe that care-taking is big way to do so. With over 10 years of pet care experience and as a dog owner myself, I love to provide dogs with the love and care that they need. I enjoy running, playing and I'm a business owner with a flexible schedule. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I look forward to working with you! I take daily walks with my two dogs who are friendly and have a flexible job at home that allows me to be available for your dog. I take dogs on daily walks to stimulate their minds through different smells and bodies through movement. If they are at my home, I have a fenced in yard that they can use.
“Raspberry is a really nervous dog and has a lot of separation anxiety, but Ava was great with her and Raspberry was able to stay calm the whole time I was gone! Exceptional communication too!”
“Highly recommend Jordan. She was responsive and sent updates often. Neighbors let us know she was quiet/respectful and spent lots of time with our pup outside. Came back from our trip and the house was clean and dog was freshly brushed. Will use again!”
“Jennifer was awesome when we had to get a sitter for my dog and cat on short notice over Christmas! My boxer can be a handful, but she kept everything running smoothly and sent adorable pics.”
“James did an amazing job taking care of my two very energetic dogs. He went above and beyond to make sure they were cared for as best as possible and kept me updated the entire week. I could not recommend James enough he made me time away stress free, thanks again James!”
“Jacob was AMAZING with our four...challenging pets (two cats, two dogs). His communication with us was clear and consistent throughout our entire trip, he followed all of our instructions exactly as we asked, and our animals (and house!) were all well taken care of. I can't recommend Jacob enough!”

Holy cow, Rebecca is amazing. She always takes such good care of my husky Stevie and is perfect at dealing with the energy and attitude that my dog throws at her. Stevie can get very anxious when I leave her behind, but I can rest assured that she’s not missing me when Rebecca comes to stay. On this fateful stay, Stevie got sick and was having accidents all over the apartment. Rebecca was such a trooper and helped my girl through her sickness, while also cleaning and taking care of my apartment and furniture. She sent plenty of updates, pictures, and even ran out to buy supplies. When things were looking a little dicey, she consulted me before taking Stevie to my vet, and got me on the phone so I could talk to the vet. She took detailed notes and explained the meds back to me when I came home. I can’t imagine having anyone else take care of my dog after the lengths Rebecca went to. I cannot recommend Rebecca enough, she was so gracious and kind to me and my dog throughout the entire poop storm. Thank you a million times over!!!
I think this is the third(maybe fourth?) time that Audrey has pet/ house sat for us, and I can say we'd definitely be happy to have her watch the fur(and scaley) kids any time. She's great with communication, sends pictures of the kids, and has handled any speedbumps(usually on our end) without any issues. Super happy that we found Audrey on here and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter and piece of mind when you have to be away from your fur kids.
Dan was terrific! He house sat and watched our two pugs for four nights and then coordinated "hand off" to a friend of ours while we were away. He kept in regular contact, sent lots of pictures, and left everything as he found it. We'd be happy to use him again.
Jovelle was absolutely fantastic. She sent twice‑daily updates with great photos, which kept me completely at ease while I was away. Loki looked happy, relaxed, and so well cared for in every single check‑in. Her communication was consistent, thoughtful, and reliable. When I got home, my apartment was in excellent shape — clean, organized, and exactly how I left it. It’s clear Jovelle takes pride in her work and genuinely cares about the pets she watches. I highly recommend her and will definitely book again.
Emily was wonderful! She was able to accommodate our request last minute and spent the whole day with Panda. She kept us updated throughout the day with messages and photos, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Panda seemed very comfortable with her, and we really appreciated how attentive and reliable she was. We’d absolutely book with Emily again!
Ellen was wonderful with my senior dog, Reuben! He has quite a few quirks and can be a little particular, so I really appreciated how patient, attentive, and caring she was with him. She took the time to understand his routine and made sure he was comfortable and well cared for while I was out of the country. I came home to a happy pup and felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Ellen for both walks and pet sitting!
Lauren was absolutely wonderful. She took great care of Lizzie and Archie. Lizzie has an ear infection and was testy but Lauren just stayed the course and Lizzie warmed up by the end of the day. Lauren even gave her her medicine. She’s a responsible young woman and I will definitely call on her again.
This is my second time using Erin and she continues to do a great job. We get tons of amazing photos of our pups relaxed and happy and it makes our trips much more enjoyable knowing they're in good hands. We also had a last minute schedule change that Erin was able to accommodate, no questions asked. We're very glad we found her on Rover and will absolutely be booking her again!
Grace was wonderful- she stayed with my pup during our 10 day travel and took great care of her! Grace made her feel comfortable right away, took her on walks, played and snuggled. Our pup loved spending time with Grace! She left our home in perfect condition and had great communication. We’ll definitely re-book with Grace anytime we need!
We seriously cannot thank Yui enough. She was so flexible with our plans changing right before a huge life event and was so caring and kind to our sweet cat as he’s faced some health challenges. We always know when we’re gone, we’re leaving him in the very best hands. We absolutely love Yui and would highly highly recommend her to anyone who has pet sitting needs!!
Dawn & Sarah are a gift! They stayed with Gus for a whole week and provided daily updates to include cute stories and photos about Gus while we were away. They took such care of our home and we are blessed to have them as part of our community. Thank you for taking care of our furbaby!
We are so happy with the service that Jordan provided us! We were able to take a trip without worry since Jordan was more than capable of caring for 3 cats, with 1 of them needing topical medicine twice a day. She made sure to send lots of great photos and give them an engaging play time. We really appreciate Jordan for accommodating us for a last minute booking adjustment. We'll definitely be reaching out again when we can take some time off.
Did a wonderful job last minute pet sitting my boys. I got lots of updates and Olivia was really communicative. When issues arose like their food running out, she really stepped up to make my pets more comfortable. Would absolutely use her again and recommend her services to others!
