“Zakiya is a wonderful doggy caregiver. She house sat for my elderly dog while I was away for work, and provided thorough and thoughtful care for my dog who was unfortunately stressed due to her humans being away. I will definitely hire her again.”
“Cheyenne really went above and beyond taking care of our babies while we were away! She gave them lots of cuddles and sent lots of great photos and updates, she even did arts and crafts with them and made “paw paintings” with them! Plus she stayed late with them when our flight was delayed. She’s always patient and kind with our big dogs, we’re so grateful to have found such a reliable and thoughtful Dogsitter.”
“Jean took great care of our pup and was so easy and kind to work with! Our anxious and hyper dog calmed down with her instantly. Great communication and updates as well!”
“We absolutely LOVED Hailee. We are super nervous leaving our boy with anyone and after a few different Rover experiences, we felt far and away that Hailee was the most attentive, communicative, responsible and respectful pet sitter we’ve ever used. Our dog is anxious around unfamiliar people but he was so willing to go on long walks with her and give her lots of cuddles which is a true A+ in my book. We will absolutely use Hailee again, without hesitation!”
“My energetic dog was really well taken care of by Jasper! It was our first time leaving her for more than one night, and she was communicative and consistent with photos and updates. Everything went smoothly and we would gladly ask her to sit our dog again!”
About: I am qualified because not only do I love animals, I do lots of volunteer work at animal events and shelters. I prioritize the health, safety, and most importantly the enjoyment of the animal staying with me.

There are NO escape routes for any sized dogs. I have ramps and a doggy door to exit and enter my house. I have doggy gates guarding the front door as extra protection in case of any emergency.

Melissa is truly an exceptional babysitter who has a special way of caring for my beloved senior furry companion, Maxie. Her warmth, compassion, and attentive approach give me peace of mind, especially considering Maxie's medical needs. I genuinely appreciate the security and love she provides during her time with him. Without a doubt, I will be reaching out to her again for our next family vacation.
Liz was wonderful! She clearly loves animals and cared for Fred as if he was her own. He was even able to enjoy Easter dinner with Liz and her family (which she asked about taking him to in advance- she is a great communicator). Fred was thrilled! Liz also took great care of our home. We (and Fred) hope she will sit for us again. Thanks Liz!
Jackie is so sweet with our senior dog, Winnie. We trust her with giving Winnie her medicine and giving Winnie snuggles and plenty of time outside. Jackie is the only dog sitter we use now. :) Even though I don’t ask her to, she keeps an eye on our plants and even prunes the dead leaves off some of the plants. She gives us so many updates, including pictures. I’m so happy we found Jackie to watch our precious little old doggie 💞💞Thanks for everything Jackie!!
Arianna house sat and watched our 4 dogs for 4 nights. She let us know it was her first time house sitting via Rover, and we were excited to be her first family to house sit for. She did a meet and greet beforehand to meet the pups. During the stay, Arianna communicated frequently and sent pictures 3 out of 4 days. She asked questions and let us know when our puppy, Olli, got into a few things and was being mischievous. We came back to the pups and house in good condition. :)
