“Heather’s house is a great place for dogs! My pups enjoyed meeting new friends and Heather was very accommodating on scheduling. The dogs are looking forward to their next visit.”
“Sandra was wonderful to work with! She was easy to communicate with, and I knew Otis was in great hands. He came home happy and relaxed after his stay. ✨”
“Karen truly went above and beyond in caring for Louie while I was away. Her thoughtful gestures, like sending frequent pictures, not only showed her dedication but also provided me with peace of mind. It’s heartwarming to know that she treated Louie with such love and attention, making sure he felt safe and happy in my absence. Her kindness speaks volumes about her character and how much she genuinely cares for both human and furry!”
“We were very nervous because Gordie had never slept away from his home. He seemed very happy and content in the photos Caitlin was kind to send. I will definitely send him to her house again.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I am loving and have compassion. Every time I meet a new dog they can sense the good energy from me. ( I can’t update my schedule timing but it’s Monday- Friday 5-10pm) and Saturday-Sunday ( 9am-10pm) I am currently working full-time. I can come by and take care of the dogs or cats for however long after 11am as well as do drops in. I can care for pets at my clients house by maintaining a boundary in where the dogs or cats are supposed to be. As well as set up a little place where they can be at so I can watch them and play.
“Thank you so much for taking care of our pooch. I am sure he enjoyed the company (canine and human), the outside time, and such comfortable inside accommodations. I am sure he will want to come for another visit soon!”
“Allison was so great with our dog Wendy! Allison had no problem giving Wendy daily medication, and she sent regular updates and was so easy to communicate with. Wendy had a great time, and we were so relieved knowing she was in good hands while we were away! We won’t hesitate to use Allison again!”
“I have been using rover for 4 years now and Amy has been the best petson to take care of my dog "Johnny" so far. She is Highly Recommended and will be using her to take care of my Dog moving forward. The pictures she sent us we awesome and it really looked like my dog was living his best life lol. You will not be disappointed.”
“The Zipster thoroughly enjoyed his stay at Steve's. He made new dog friends and played for hours on end. In fact he needed to take a long nap when he got home, but wanted to go right back to Steve's house to play with Stella, Maggie, KC and Wesley. He can't wait for us to take another trip so he can go visit his new friends.”
“Sarah was amazing! From the beginning, she was very responsive to all of our questions about the booking. Our dog tends to be shy and can sometimes be aggressive with other dogs, but Sarah made it work, and our dog got along with hers right away. She sent us daily updates with photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind. Our dog was very happy during her stay! We will definitely book with Sarah again and highly recommend her as a dog sitter.”
“First time using Rover and had a great experience with Keith & Ashley. Had last minute travel plans come up and they were very accommodating and kept me updated and in the loop all weekend. My dog is anxious and has some separation anxiety and they made him feel right at home.”
“Morgan was super helpful when I needed a sitter on my road trip! She was so good with Molly and helped out extra since Molly wasn’t feeling the best on my trip and eating irregularly”
“Lindsey was wonderful with our floof. We were in town for a graduation ceremony and our pup needed a place to stay overnight and sit out the festivities. She was clearly well-cared for and even got to sleep in a bed! We weren’t sure about the pick-up time since we weren’t sure when the event would end, and we found Lindsey to be very communicative and flexible in working that out. Her back yard set-up was great for our pooch, and we heartily recommend her.”
“Our Boxer had a great stay with Brittany and her family. Her updates allowed us to enjoy our vacation, knowing that Roxie was socializing, with people and other dogs.”
“Vassu and her family took great care of our dog Cera! She sent me pictures and videos each day along with texts letting me know how she was doing. I felt very reassured that Cera was with a family who would take great care of her!”
“Jessiana is the perfect pet sitter. My pup always comes home happy and really enjoys his stay. Can always count on her to provide top notch care for my little buddy.”
About: I have had pets my whole life and have been trusted to care for them consistently. Having 2 of my own dogs and many reptiles/amphibians, my care for pets goes deeper than most. I am currently working on becoming credentialed as a NP so I am no longer working a full time job, making me free almost any day. I have a fenced in yard with 2 friendly dogs but am also available to come to your home as needed! I have a home of my own as well so I know the importance of keeping the home safe and clean for our little friends.
“Norma has a great time with Alan and Luis. She loves playing in their big backyard with all the other dogs. They send thoughtful and frequent updates and photos, and really treat her like one of their own.”

Aishea was wonderful with my dogs! They had never been properly socialized around other dogs and she was able to get them to join the pack and have fun! One of my dogs can go on a hunger strike when I leave but he ate by days 2 with her. She sent photos and updates during the week they were with her and took them on walks. Her house is set up perfectly with multiple rooms for the dogs to occupy (inside!) and a large fenced in backyard for running, lounging and playing. I was very grateful that she took such good care of them.
Shekeyla and her family loved our two pups while we were away on vacation, they showed amazing care and attention to them, walking, feeding, sleeping arrangements, all day attention. We received photos and videos and updates daily. You couldn't ask for more from one of the top rated rover sitters in our area. We were very grateful and would 100% book again. 🐶 🐶
I booked a trip last minute - Darlene was extremely accommodating with timing and took great care of our dog Bear! She took amazing pictures, had a yard for the dog to play in, and made me feel reassured about leaving our dog in her care. I will definitely rebook if I am back in the area!
Joseirys M. was absolutely amazing with our dog Django. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Django is a rescue and can be pretty anxious and fearful around new people, so we’re always very careful about who we leave him with. From the moment he was with Joseirys, it was clear she has a natural understanding of dogs and how to make them feel safe. She was incredibly patient, gentle, and attentive, and Django quickly became comfortable in a way that honestly surprised us. What really stood out was how well she adapted—not just to Django’s needs, but to our schedule as well while we were in LA. She was communicative, reliable, and went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Django was in such good hands. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares and treats your pet like their own, I highly recommend Joseirys. We will definitely be booking with her again.
Angie took care of my dog Pancho for three days and I’m very grateful for the care she gave him. She maintained great communication the entire time and regularly sent me photos, which helped me feel at ease while I was out of town. During his stay, Pancho had a health-related accident that had nothing to do with Angie’s care, and she informed me right away and handled the situation very responsibly. She was attentive, honest, and very caring with him. I also asked if I could pick Pancho up early in the morning and she had no problem accommodating that. I truly appreciate how she communicated with me and the care she gave to Pancho.
Anna and her husband took great care of our dog, Oakley, for a weekend! I was very nervous leaving our dog with someone we didn’t know, but from the beginning Anna was warm and friendly and helped us feel at ease. She was accommodating of Oakley’s reactivity and sent us updates throughout the weekend. If we ever need to find someone to watch Oakley again, we will definitely consider Anna in the future!
Our dog has never stayed with anyone besides family when we had Adam watch him for an overnight. Apollo was happy and excited to see him, and wasn’t anxious like we expected him to be. We got updates and pictures which were appreciated. Apollo takes a number of medications and Adam handled that easily. We were thankful for Adam watching Apollo and taking care of his needs while we were away.
