“Reshunda was amazing to work with. My pup has some allergy issues and she did a great job at checking in and following directions. Thanks so much for taking care of my baby!”

“Ruby did a fantastic job taking care of our pets and our home!! We came home to three very happy nuggets. I think she brushed them while we were away, since our (very large) dog’s coat is super shiny - and she even took out the trash before leaving! We had to extend our trip by 2 days for a family emergency, and she was incredibly flexible and was able to provide care for the additional 2 days. Ruby definitely went above & beyond, and we’d love to have her sit for our dog & 2 cats again any time!”

“Eliana was absolutely amazing. My partner and I have a disabled fur baby with a number of special needs, and Eliana was incredibly diligent, asked all the right questions, followed our instructions closely, and took such great care of Miss Bean and our home. We came home to a happy, healthy pup and couldn’t have been more appreciative. I will absolutely be reaching back out for future travel plans. She was a dream to have stay with our fur baby!”

William R.

“Katalina gave us great peace of mind watching our dog Avery. She gave regular updates and pictures of our pup, and she was clear and friendly in her communication. Such a professional who wants to make sure your fur baby is taken care ofb”

“Nicole has taken care of our golden+corgi combo for 4 days and she's done an amazing job! Sending frequent updates and taking them on walks was great for our separation anxiety. We will certainly continue requesting for her in the future!”

“Kat took amazing care of Doby and my apartment while I was away. She shared photos, communicated well, and even waited for me until I got home! Doby was happy and well cared for, and my place was just as I left it (even cleaner! )I’ll definitely book her again. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Cristian was AMAZING! I could not have had a better first experience on rover than with Cristian, hopefully if he’ll have us we WILL be booking him again! Constantly updated us and let us know what was going on with my girl 🐶 she seemed happy in every picture sent! Couldn’t be happier with the service, really went above and beyond”

Ruby C.

“Took amazing care of our dogs while we were away for 10 days! She kept us up to date regularly and took some of the best pictures. She also got them comfortable with short outdoor walks which we plan to keep up now that we’re back. Would highly recommend her for your pet care needs !”

Lawrence L.

“Elizabeth was so great! We were able to meet before the house sitting and went over the specifics of my dog. She gave me daily updates and let me know he was doing well which I really appreciated!! I would definitely book again ?”

“Brianna was such an amazing sitter! She took great care of my two cats while I was out of town for a week, and sent multiple daily photo updates, making it clear she is a true animal lover. I highly recommend using her services, thank you so much Brianna!”

Samantha D.

“Allison was great! She was very accommodating and communicative before the stay, and continued to be awesome throughout the stay. She sent pictures and updates throughout the weekend, which I really appreciated. We came home to a super happy pup and a very clean home! I will definitely be using Allison again and can’t recommend her enough! Thank you so much Allison!!”

About: Hola! I’m Barbara—an economic justice advocate, Red Cross volunteer, and total bonafide Dog Mom. I grew up surrounded by German Shepherds, but as an adult, I fell in love with the little ones—starting with my very first Shih Tzu, who looked more like an Ewok than a dire wolf! For over 20 years, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for neighbors, friends, and family. I’ve walked and cared for cats and dogs of all ages and sizes, from playful puppies to seniors needing a little extra TLC. In 2020, my life changed when I adopted a special-needs Shih Tzu named Chewy, who has a rare condition called Megaesophagus and eats upright in a “Bailey chair.” Chewy’s thriving journey has been such a gift—and we’ve shared it with a supportive community through his Instagram Now that Chewy is doing great, we’ve been hosting more furry friends and officially joined Rover to offer personalized, loving care to other pets—especially small to medium dogs. I work remotely, so I’m home most of the day and love having a companion to walk, cuddle, and care for. ✅ We only care for one household’s pets at a time—so your dog(s) will get all the attention ✅ Calm, flexible, and experienced with both healthy pets and those with medical or mobility needs ✅ Fully covered with Pet Sitter Insurance for your peace of mind ✅ Let’s set up a Meet & Greet to see if we’re the right fit! Whether you’re going out of town or just need a reliable sitter, Chewy and I are ready to make your dog feel right at home. I work from home full-time, which means your furry little one will get plenty of attention throughout the day. I have the flexibility to take them on walks, enjoy playtime like fetch or tug-of-war, and give them the love and companionship they need—whether it’s a quick potty break or a full day of care. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow any instructions you provide closely—feeding schedules, medications, preferred routines, and behavior notes are all part of the care plan. I also keep your pet's environment calm, clean, and cozy, just like you'd want it to be. In my home, I care for only one household’s pets at a time to make sure your dog gets plenty of one-on-one attention. I supervise all outdoor time and never allow off-leash play unless in a securely fenced area. I also have Pet Sitter Insurance for added peace of mind. If I’m visiting your home, I treat your space with the same respect and care I give your pet—double-checking doors, cleaning up, and keeping things tidy and secure. And if anything seems off while you're away, I’ll keep you informed right away.

“Great communication and my pup loved hanging out with Elizabeth!”

Jake R.

“Gabby was so great with our dogs - we couldn't have asked for anyone better! I get nervous every time we have to leave them, but as soon as I met Gabby I knew they'd be in great hands! Both of our dogs have their own quirks and can be a little dog (and squirrel!) reactive when on a leash, but she assured us that it wasn't a problem at all! She sent us pictures daily and our dogs always looked perfectly happy and content. She even left two big dog cookies for the dogs when she left - so thoughtful! I would highly recommend Gabby - we certainly plan to use her again!”

Matney G.

“Malcolm is very flexible and punctual! He gave our dogs so much attention and love. I have a reactive and anxious dog I was very worried of being away from, but she loved him and did well. He provides thorough updates and is detailed. Would recommend for dog walks and house sitting needs!”

Ashley L.

“WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND ALEISHA!! Our dogs loved her the minute she came to meet them. She is Very communicative, thoughtful, friendly and sweet. Her love for dogs is clearly noticeable as she went above every time to make sure they where happy. Long walks, pets, ball throws. She was super happy to take our girls to their grooming appointments too. Also, Our house was spotless when we came back. Very respectful and trustworthy Thank you Aleisha for taking the worry out of traveling!! 🐶🐶❤️”

About: My passion for animals began when I volunteered at PAWS, where I cared for shelter dogs and cats. That experience made me fall in love with pet care and inspired me to continue working with animals. Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for many of my neighbors’ dogs and cats, providing them with loving, dependable care while their families are away. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me flexibility for drop-in visits and dog walks during the mornings and afternoons. I’m also available for house sitting on weekends. Whether it’s a relaxing stroll, an adventure around the neighborhood, or a beautiful sunset walk, I’d love to spend quality time with your pup while making sure they get the exercise, attention, and care they deserve. 🌅🐾 I will care for your pets and your home as if they were my own. I’ll do my best to maintain their normal routine and provide the same love, attention, and care they’re used to, so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and in good hands.🤍

“Diane is a gem! We have 2 Little Havanese pups and When she comes over, she sits on the floor so the dogs get comfy. She obviously loves dogs. We were traveling for 4 days and She sent us photos everyday with a short text of what they did. Also-when we got home -the condo was pristine. We will be happy to contract her again!”

Melanie M.
