“My dog was well cared for and my house was in great shape when I got home. She even brought in my mail and garbage. Marty was very flexible with the schedule at the last minute.”


“Catie was wonderful with our two very energetic Dobermans! She communicated with us throughout the night when she stayed with our pups and shared lots of pictures which we loved! The house was left clean and our dogs were left happy. Thank you, Catie!”


“Joey was fabulous! We set up a pre setting visit, and our dogs were immediately smitten with Joey! That set the stage for an amazing engagement with Joey. He sent daily updates and the cutest photos with clever & funny comments! Joey is a natural with dogs & we would highly recommend him!!!”


“I can’t begin to share how reliable and helpful Alicia was. This was a last minute house sitting for our pup and she was so helpful and kind. She’s walked her often and sent us pictures and even helped us take our trash out while we were out even though she didn’t have to. She’s a true gem and we cannot recommend her enough!”



“Elizabeth watched Maya for five days while we were away. Maya LOVED her time with Elizabeth. Elizabeth kept her on a walk/play/eat/sleep schedule and sent periodic pictures so we knew how everything was going. She also vacuumed and mopped before we got home, so there wasn’t dog hair everywhere. Because of Elizabeth, we got to truly enjoy some time away without having to worry about home. Thank you, Elizabeth, and I HIGHLY recommend her!”


“Haille was very polite and easy to talk to. She didn’t mind that we had to run home for things forgotten when we were supposed to be gone, and stayed with our pup all weekend. She was a big help and made us stress a little less about our daughters wedding.”


About: Ive had animals of all kinds growing up. My family, friends and neighbors have all felt safe leaving their fur babies in my car when they need to leave them for a day or more. You can trust they will be in great hands. Im currently work full time. I can be at your home in the morning, after work and overnight any day of the week. I can also go on my breaks depending on location. I will keep your babies in their normal routine or a temporary routine. I will follow your instructions to a T. I will give them lots of love and playtime. I can follow any dietary needs. I also have experience in medications if your babies require them.

About: I’ve had family dogs for my entire life! I currently own a sweetest dog named Rocky! Everyday I feel like I get to attached with them more than I do with people! Love taking them out on a walk, dog park, or wherever they want me to take them! I have a summer break until like beginning of September! Would rather have weekends to myself until 2-4pm! If you need me during weekends we could definitely make it work! I live in an apartment so it would be better if your fur babies want to stay at their homes! I can do whatever works the best for them!

“Maribeth and Enzo got along beautifully she is magic to him and we can tell he loves her too! Polite and professional! She did a drop in for us this time but we will hire her again in near future!”


“Bethany is an amazing sitter. She sat for my dog that was recovering from an injury and wearing a cone. She had to give her medicine and keep her comfortable. My dog is picky about who she feels comfortable with but she liked Bethany! She is also very conscientious, punctual, and just really nice! I highly recommend her and will use her again.”


“Everything seemed to have gone well. Whitney met us in person before sitting for Marlin and came again the day prior to make sure she had all the information needed and to get a lay of the land. She sent photos of marlin. Although we did not set expectations prior, in the future we would like more frequent updates. We would hire her again.”


“This was our first time using Rover.com and we were skeptical however Kayligh was amazing. Our dog and cat loved her and when we got back we couldn’t even tell she had been there. The house was how we left it. We will definitely be booking again. She also stayed an extra hour which was really nice, walked the dog, cuddled and played with our dog and sent us pictures. She also got back to us really quickly when we had questions which made us feel like she cared.”



About: I have been trained in the pet department for country maxx! I work independent contract gigs full time and I have a very flexible schedule! I am a full-time aid to a young woman who loves animals. I work from 9am-4pm on weekdays, and am completely free on weekends! For day checks and walks, I can bring along the woman I care for as long as I have your permission. I can not offer night services at my apartment, but I will gladly house sit or check on your pups at night! I'm a super flexible person who is always looking for new opportunities!

About: Hi there! I would love to provide a clean and home-like environment for your pets. I have over 25 years of caring for all types of animals. Available for boarding dogs and cats, house sitting(I’m unable to accommodate staying overnights), and drop-ins! Your pets will feel right at home in my care with all the attention and love they deserve! I am super fun to be around and I'm very active so your pet won't be bored or ever feel alone. I live on an acre with lots of open space for walks and playtime. I am currently not working so my schedule is very flexible. Pet care is built into my daily routine—it’s a priority, not a task. From morning walks to evening feedings and playtime, I schedule my day around each pet’s individual needs to ensure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Whether in my home or a client’s, I provide consistent, personalized care. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and medication if needed—while keeping their environment clean, safe, and stress-free. My goal is to make them feel as comfortable and loved as they do with their own family.

“This was Destiny's first time with our spoiled Shih-Tzu. She left me updates all day long, sent pics, was very honest about Bella's behavior, walks, etc. Will definitely keep using her. She is very responsive and knowledgeable.”


“Vicki is a God send! Reliable, responsible, courteous and absolutely wonderful with my two dogs. I have utilized Vicki for both drop in visits and overnight stays, which have ranged from weekend stays to full week stays. Vicki is great with open communication and provides regular updates, including photos. She is also very flexible with her schedule and answers reservation requests within 24 hours. I would highly recommend this pet sitter! A+++”


“Rich was really flexible and nice enough to stay with our dogs for a full day. Haylee our German Shepherd and Aussie mix really like Rich. We will definitely use him again. He showed a lot of caring due to asking things. He was also willing to watch Sparky too (may have been new to disc problems) and handled it well. We will definitely request Rich again!”


“Calli did great with my dogs. One is a very recent rescue and we aren't sure of his background. He's quite apprehensive and has been a little nippy. She was super communicative prior to, during and after she watched our dogs. She also came twice to assure fit prior to us leaving since our rescue was not super receptive to meeting someone new. I definitely recommend Calli.”


“Amena was fantastic! This is the first time we left our anxious guy at home and had someone come stay instead. Game changer. She provided great pic/video updates. Our apt was cleaner when we got home than it was when we left and I swear I think she fixed our bathroom door! She was kind and came over for a meet and greet the day before. Would 100% book again. Thank you for taking such great care of Remy while we were away!”

“Melissa has been amazing with animals since she was a young girl. Many times while in vacation I felt fortunate to have her as a neighbor to keep track of our beloved pets. From my daughter’s little critters like hamsters and even rats to our Family Great Danes she has always just taken such good care of them while we are away. She even took a friends Quaker parrot for a week while she went on vacation and did a great job with him. I highly recommend Melissa , and know she can handle the care of most any pet.”

South Lima pet parents share their Rover experiences
Vicki was superb -- very prompt communications, willing to reach out to me with questions on a medication issue with one of my dogs. She arrived on time for the Meet and Greet -- very personable and my dogs felt quite comfortable right from the get-go. All in all, a successful first visit. I would definitely use her again.
