“Kayma is wonderful! We could not be more pleased with the excellent care she gave our dog when we were away. She gave us great updates and pictures every day we were gone, and it was obvious from our pup's relaxed, happy state when we returned that he was extremely well taken care of. As a bonus our home was spotless when we returned. We will certainly use Kayma for all of our pet care needs going forward.”
“Amazing caretaker. She went above and beyond to ensure my pets were taken care of. My dog had a cough and she took him to the vet and kept me updated every step of the way. Would recommend her to any pet owner!”
“Abby was fabulous she gave our dogs extra special care and she did a wonderful job taking care of them. We look forward to having Abby watch our furry friends again almost as much as they do. 10 stars”
“Erin was wonderful. She went above and beyond in every way, kept us informed, and took great care of the house. Our puppy was 6 months at the time of the vacation, and Erin did great with all of them. I am sure they will all be so happy to see her again!”
“Maryn is amazing! She took great care of my boy while I was away for the week. I appreciated her updates and communication while I was away and will definitely reach out again for her services in the future.”
“Rachel did an amazing job with our dogs. We were able to enjoy our vacation, knowing she was taking such good care of them. We got daily updates, with pictures. She gladly brought in mail and watered plants for us. She is very accommodating and fit us in to her schedule. She was able to pop in for 3 afternoons visits before her time here started when our son wasn’t able to get here during the day to let them out. We will definitely be calling her for future jobs! She’s a gem!!”
“Jennifer’s pet and house sitting service was great. She communicated very well, both before and during her stay. She provided both photos and updates each day. Would definitely book her again.”
“Can't say enough wonderful things about Lori. First and foremost, she is ALWAYS on time - a quality that seems small but I find very important. She was calm, kind and gentle with my rambunctious pups and knew exactly how to keep everybody calm and happy. I have mixed feelings recommending her because I want her all to myself.”
“We've used Mirette twice now to house-sit/dog-sit our older Westie, and she did a great job! She was great at communicating with us and was at the house the vast majority of the time with our dog, which we loved! The house was clean when we got home and we had no issues! We would recommend Mirette, and would definitely use her again the next time we travel!”
About: Hello! I have always had pets throughout my entire life, and currently have 2 very fluffy kitties! I have 5 years of childcare experience, 3 of which are in home caretaker/house manager. I enjoy taking care of littles, especially ones with fur! I am currently working part time, which gives me the flexibility to take on pet sitting gigs, most days of the week. I have a very trusty toyota camry as well to get me to where I need to go! I have two cats in my home, they are both girls and both think they are the queen of the house. I prioritize a healthy diet for them, as well as lots of play time to stimulate them and help them get the exercise they want and need.
“We are so incredibly grateful for Whitney and everything that she’s done for us. Whitney brings a natural and consistent loving approach to her work. It was immediately clear that her care and supportive approach sets her apart from others. For this stay, Whitney cared for our two cats and one dog for a week. Due to the weather, we were delayed for 1 1/2 days coming home. Whitney was beyond understanding and did not hesitate to continue caring for our babies and home while we were away. We feel lucky and privileged to have met Whitney. I genuinely cannot wait until my babies have the opportunity to spend time with her again! Thank you again Whitney!!!”
“Vanessa did a fantastic job taking care of my dog. I came home to a happy boy, a clean place, and will definitely use Vanessa in the future. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a sitter!”
“Shyanne did a fantastic job watching our kitties! She was so communicative and took lots of pictures. I never had to wonder about our cats while away on an extended trip which brings such peace of mind! She also left our home very clean which was nice to come home to. Will definitely be booking again!”
About: I have been entrusted with the care of many friends and neighbors pets since I was 10 years old. I have my own cat, Pidge, who I trained to go on walks and do tricks. He’s very friendly and people oriented. I just adopted an Aussie puppy and have been adapting her to the world and keeping her mentally stimulated. I am a detail oriented and thorough sitter. If your pet has special quirks or needs I am more than willing to abide! I can go over their training, take them on a walk and prepare special treats or meals. Anything to ensure my visit is as close to their usual routine as possible. Your pets comfort and care is my top priority. My schedule works perfectly for date nights, concerts, and any special events you may have in the evening during the week. Weekends I’m fully available. If you want your dog to get some socialization I’m also willing to orchestrate a play date with my dog (after an initial meet with you present). I would love to check in on your pet or take your dogs (or cats) for a walk! I work full time so I am available on weekdays in the morning, evening and overnight. Weekends all day. I can visit after work and take them on a walk, feed them, let them out to potty, check their food/water, do some training, etc. I am detail oriented and will make sure I follow the specific routine and guidelines you require for your pet. In my own home I have a daily schedule for my puppy’s training in 10min increments to maximize her training and behavioral development, as well as give her my undivided attention in the hours she’s awake. I wouldn’t hesitate to go above and beyond for your pets as well. I care about the well being and safety of all animals and will make sure every pet in your home is treated with respect.
“Trevor was very nice. He took good care of Ashley. He stayed here for a few nights and then took her to his house for the rest of the time. he even shoveled our driveway and sidewalk from the snowstorm. We would like to use him again.”
About: I’ve spent 7+ years caring for pets of all kinds, taking the time to learn each one’s routine, quirks, and comfort level so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to help with puppies, seniors, and pets who need a little extra care. I work a full-time job from 10–5 on weekdays, so I schedule pet care around my work hours. I’m available early mornings, evenings, and weekends for walks, playtime, or visits. When I’m with pets, I give them my full attention and make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well-cared-for, even with my regular work schedule. I provide attentive, patient care whether I’m at your home or mine. In your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, playtime, walks, litter box care, and any special instructions—to keep them comfortable and stress-free. If pets are in my home, I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and part of the family, giving plenty of attention, cuddles, and play. I always prioritize their happiness, health, and comfort.
About: I grew up raising and caring for dogs, gaining hands-on experience with feeding, training, grooming, and understanding different breeds’ behaviors, needs, and personalities in a loving, responsible environment. I am available during the day but I work from 1a-11a . Please note that my children may also be present at my home during the stay. I will get the extra accessories I need , due to me not having a fenced in yard,such as a leash, a harness, and toys if not provided ! I will ensure to keep your fur babies entertained!
Southmoreland pet parents share their Rover experiences
Five stars for Susannah! She was awesome with Gurdy and Smidgie. The communication was great throughout our trip. She sent plenty of photos, including some great videos of her playing with the pups. Everyone looked completely relaxed and happy. She brought her dog Oliver along, and by the time we got home all three had clearly become fast friends. We couldn’t have asked for better care. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!
Always a 5 star experience with Amina! It is such a treat for Chambo and peace of mind for us to have Amina taking care of things. We were able to have a little adventure out of town, and out of cell service, knowing Amina had it covered. And we returned home knowing Chambo was taken care of and all we had to do was cuddle our bubbs. Thank you again, Amina!
Maryn was so great, our dog had so much fun with her and got so much love, attention, exercise, and play time! She sent so many pictures which put us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our trip knowing our dog was taken care of. Would definitely use Maryn again and definitely recommend her!
Mattie really seems to love our fur babies when taking care of them in our absence. We regularly received text photos and updates letting us know how they were all doing. In one picture, one of our cats was laying on Mattie's legs while our dogs were snuggled up the each side of her. Our condo lobby attendant said Mattie was super nice and great with our pets.
Kayma was AMAZING! She did a great job communicating before her stay and during the stay she sent lots of updates and pictures of Otis. My house looked as if she wasn’t there when I returned. I was able to relax during my time away because I knew my anxious dog was being well taken care of, thank you so much Kayma.
Jess was amazing! She took such great care of our pups over the weekend, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’re always really nervous leaving them since they’re basically our children, but she immediately put us at ease with consistent updates and communication. Even when there was an unexpected hiccup with the door (completely out of her control), she handled everything calmly and professionally. We especially appreciated her being there for them during the storms, since they get so scared—knowing they had someone patient and comforting with them meant a lot. We’d absolutely trust her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.
Hannah K. has cared for our three pets several times, and this most recent stay set a new standard. She is tremendous. We have three animals, and during this visit each one needed a different care routine due to injuries. Hannah handled it with total focus and confidence. Medications, special instructions, close monitoring. She stayed on top of every detail and never missed a beat. She treats each animal as an individual. You see it in how she adjusts her approach, how closely she pays attention, and how quickly our pets settle in with her. They trust her. That matters. She is also a dedicated dog walker and fits right in with our community of neighborhood pet owners. Communication is excellent. She sends thoughtful updates, shares great photos, and asks smart questions when needed. You always know what is going on, and you never have to chase her down for information. She also takes great care of the house. Everything is clean, organized, and exactly as we left it. During this stay she managed a power outage and a couple of storms without missing a step. No disruption. No stress passed on to us. She handled it calmly and kept everything running smoothly. We have used Hannah many times, and this experience confirmed it again. She is reliable, attentive, and genuinely cares about the animals in her charge. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone who wants their pets and home in capable, caring hands.
