“Mallory has been amazing! She has watched my dog twice now and each time has gone very smoothly. My large dog is very sweet once you know him but has a protective streak that can make initial meetings difficult. However, Mallory instantly put him at ease and clearly knows when to give dogs space and how to best approach. My dog loves her and I always feel comfortable leaving him in her care. 100% recommend!”
“Tatyana is a reliable and caring sitter. She stayed at our house with our 11.5-year-old German Shepherd and provided excellent care, and tremendous peace of mind for us. Having worked at a kennel previously, she is comfortable around all types of dogs (and ours is a big boy). She sent periodic updates and followed our instructions well. We highly recommend her for short or extended care.”
“Ray did a great job with both our dogs, but especially with our older thunder-phobic dog during a week in which many storms were predicted and a few happened. Her willingness to communicate, and her good questions made her a great choice for our dogs. And our dogs were clearly happy, comfortable and well-cared for in our absence. We would definitely book her again.”
“Karina always shows such care for my pets. My dog and cat both have health issues that require multiple medicines and supplements. She always follows their routine closely, asks questions to make sure she’s providing good care, takes my dog on daily walks, and sends daily pictures. I also come home to a clean house. I will not hesitate to request pet/house sitting from Karina again and I highly recommend her!”
“Julia did a great job caring for my dog, Louie, and cat, Callie! They both have health issues that require medication and Julie reviewed everything and gave them everything they needed. She also sent daily updates and pictures. I came home to healthy and happy pets and a clean home. I would definitely book with Julia again!”
“We (and our dogs) loved having Nicole sit for us. She is an excellent communicator and took care of our pups like they were her own. I’d absolutely have her stay with our dogs again—and based on their lukewarm reaction to us coming home, I think they’d like to see her again too. 🤣”
About: I have had cats for more than half of my life and dog-sat for around the same amount of time. I used to dog sit two huskies all the time, had a dog of my own for a short time, and have experience dog sitting for labs as well! I have even taken care of a bearded dragon and snake on multiple occasions. Rover does not list animals other than cats and dogs directly but I am happy to arrange care for another animal as well, including exotic animals, for a fee that can be discussed. I am volunteering at the humane society and am very involved in caring for animals as much as I have time for. I am excited and ready to care for any and all pets that need it and will stick to specific details given. I won't hesitate to ask questions about the care of your pets when I have them to make sure your pet gets the utmost care and love while you're away or busy, and id yoy have plants that need watering, say the word and I'll do that too! I am currently full time in senior year of high-school and volunteering for two hours a week on the weekends, but I graduate in a month and will have all the time in the world to pet sit! I follow every instruction for food, water, walk, and treats and ask questions if I am unsure of something. I tend to stay longer than needed for check in visits just to give pets some company if I have the time. Unless pets are not very social, they will get all kinds of attention, and if they have any anxiety or behavioral differences I will be very careful and act however is best for them. I am very sure to be on time for visits and will be very specific to follow instructions for walking or being taken outside.
“First, Hannah keeps her schedule up to date. I first found Hannah because I had contacted others on Rover who had their calendar as available and come to find out they were not around. This is the very first impression and shows that she is responsible and organized. Hannah takes great care of our dogs and our house. When we arrive home, our dogs are excited of course, but also seem happy and unaffected by our absence, even after a full week gone. Hannah always cleans up after herself, takes out her garbage, Etc. We really appreciate having Hannah there to care for our dogs. We have an elderly dog who can't get around easily and a kennel is just not an option.”
“Alex was awesome! She was very nice and attentive to detail. We really appreciated her good communication and updates about our cat throughout our trip. We would definitely recommend her and use her again!”
“Cassandra was a great fit for our family and dog! She gave great updates and went above and beyond with what was needed for the week. We appreciated the great communication and care she took.”
“Julia was so pleasant and professional! She asked great questions to prepare for her time with Princeton, and you could tell she really cared - Princeton warmed up to her immediately :) I highly recommend Julia and would definitely hire her again!”
“Jacki is amazing!!!! I cannot say enough good words about her! She provides constant updates with great information about the my pets and lots of very cute photos! She made me feel super confident that my pets are well taken care of so I don’t have to worry about them. There’s always an update coming my way right when I wanted to check. She also has great attention to details and noticed that I had a perishable package delivered. She checked in with me to get my permission for next steps and I really appreciate how she approached that situation. It is an amazing experience having Jacki as a sitter. I would highly recommend her to anyone considering.”
“Allegra was AMAZING at pet sitting our dog and cat while we were gone for 5 nights. She sent updates and phots as often and was great at communicating. We returned to happy and healthy pets. I felt very confident leaving my somewhat high needs cat with her. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Stacia was awesome! Our pups were happy to have us home but seemed to be well taken care of and not extra needy and they gave her lots of love before she left! We will definitely use her if she's available on our next trip.”
“We had an amazing experience with Jesse! She took wonderful care of both our dog and our cat while we were away for two weeks. She was incredibly attentive, super kind with our pets, and clearly loved spending time with them. She even surprised our dog with some plush toys before she left, which meant so much to us. When we came back, both of our pets were completely relaxed and happy, which says everything about the level of care they received. On top of pet care, she was a huge help with things around the house when they came up and shared really helpful advice for managing our dog’s allergies. We truly felt supported the entire time we were away. We couldn’t be happier with her care and will absolutely be booking her again for our next trip. Highly recommend.”

Alaina is a fantastic dog sitter! Our two pups are always so excited to see her and enthusiastically greet her at the door every time she arrives. She spends quality time playing with them in the yard and clearly cares about their happiness and well-being. Alaina is also an excellent communicator, keeping us informed about timing and any needed adjustments while providing thoughtful options when plans need to change. We appreciate her reliability, flexibility, and the genuine care she shows our dogs. Highly recommend!
Seanna was responsive, reliable, and took excellent care of our rambunctious 6 month old Great Pyr/Retriever puppy while we were away for a week. We have already sent another booking request for a future trip. I recommend her to anyone looking for a considerate and skilled dog and house sitter. Five stars.
Sophie is the Best! She was able to come on short notice to dog-sit while we were out for a long evening. She was very responsive to our texts with directions and timing. Our spirited 15 month old doodle immediately connected with her. Although we didn't expect her to, Sophie took him out for a walk to work off some of his energy. Afterward, she sent us a photo of him relaxed and content. Five stars for Sophie!
We just got back from a trip and Brenda was our house and animal sitter. She always takes such great care of our pets (1 dog and 2 cats) and our home. I cannot say enough good things about her. We have already reserved her for our next trip. Thanks so much, Brenda!
Robert couldn’t have been better! He took great care of my high-needs pup and she made it through our longest getaway just fine. She was given multiple walks per day and plenty of outside time. We also received at least one picture per day to show the kids (which made them very comfortable. I’ll definitely be booking him for my next trip.
Ashley was phenomenal in every aspect of caring for our pet. Before we booked, she came by for a consultation so we could make sure it was a good fit for everyone, which immediately put us at ease. From the very beginning, she was caring, compassionate, and accepting. We were away for 11 days, and Ashley went above and beyond by sending us daily updates and photos. It was so reassuring to see our pets happy and well cared for while we were gone. Her professionalism, communication, and genuine love for animals made the entire experience stress-free. We highly recommend Ashley and would gladly trust her with our pet again!
We've never had anyone watch our cats except for family. I was extremely nervous, but after reading Abigail's profile, and watching her interact with our cats at the initial meeting, I knew I had found the right person! Abigail took lots of notes and asked tons of questions to make sure she had all the information to not only cat sit, but stay in our house for 12 days. Both cats immediately took to her like they were long lost besties. We were out of the country, but I received multiple photo's and video's every day so we never felt like we were so far away. The people we were traveling with were impressed with the number of pictures, updates and video's we received. Somehow she even got the picky eater cats to eat more than they do during a normal day. If I ever need someone to care for our pets in the future, Abigail will be the first person I look for!
