“Miriam did the best job taking care of our dog while we were out of town. Miriam did a great job communicating, sending photos, updates, and left our home in fantastic condition. We have a senior dog with some anxiety, and Miriam was very experienced and understanding, which truly can’t express how much that’s appreciated. Would rebook with Miriam any time and suggest you to do the same!”

“Sheridan was great with our two dogs. She communicated and sent pictures everyday, which was great. She also helped us out immensely when we had some travel issues and needed additional nights. Would recommend 100%.”

“Christine did a wonderful job watching our boy. She accommodated our request to do a meet & greet before. And kept him company while we were away. We would definitely have her back again!”

“Emma watched Sadie while we were away for a day. She was communicative when needed, did everything we asked of her, and even stayed a little while extra to comfort Sadie when Sadie was afraid of fireworks going off outside. Sadie was cared for and in good spirits when we returned. We would happily book Emma again!”

About: Hi!🫶🏼 I Would love to help care for your animals in any capacity. I have extensive experience with animals and have worked at a dog boarding kennel in the past in addition to growing up with pets. I have worked with aggressive dogs and am comfortable reading a dog’s cues to prevent escalation. I currently have a Bernese mountain dog who is always down for a play date and a cat who tolerates her antics haha. Bonus- I’m an ER nurse, far from a vet tech, but good for med admin if needed! With that, I do work 3 shifts a week(12 hours) that vary. So while my schedule can be sporadic, it can also be very open! I work full time 3 days a week and use rover sitters myself for those days. My schedule varies, but I am great for last minute needs as long as I’m not working! I try to stick to your pet’s routine and rules! I am also very good at recognizing body language/behaviors and therefore can prevent “incidents” from occurring like aggression on walks. I’m also happy to bring along my Berner for a play date if you’d like!
“Zach was such a blessing to us. He was so understanding and flexible with our needs and our old doggies and kitties love him. He was attentive and thorough with all our millions of instructions for taking care of our geriatric Great Danes with many health issues. He also took care of some things last minute for us that I had forgotten to do. It was such a relief to find someone we could trust to stay with our boys. Thank you Zach ❤️”
“Once again, Kelly is truly a gem! She stayed overnight with my fur baby Fox Fox and went above and beyond to make sure he felt safe, loved, and completely at ease while I was away. He is in the best hands when Kelly’s around — calm, content, and totally spoiled with love and attention. Kelly’s updates are always reassuring and heartfelt, and her genuine care for animals really shines through. I am so grateful to have someone so dependable and compassionate looking after my little gent. Thank you, Kelly, and until next time! 🐾”

About: I’ve been walking my two dogs around downtown for more than 5 years—we know all the best spots! I nursed one of my dogs during surgical recovery and both are technically geriatric at this point, so I have experience with dogs of nearly all ages. Would love to get to know your fur babies! I work remotely downtown so my schedule is fairly flexible. Some days I have no meetings at all! Even when I do, they are few and far between. I generally tend to stay local to Downtown when I’m not working too. Plenty of walks and playtime, always making sure to keep an eye on them so they stay out of trouble. My dogs love to snuggle so we often curl up on the couch with a good show or movie!
“Kun was absolutely amazing staying with our dog while we were out of town for a week. She took excellent care of him and went above and beyond. Kun sent many updates and pictures and also took him on lots of walk. We were able to relax knowing he was in such good hands. Will definitely rebook with Kun again!”

About: Hi! I grew up with 4 dogs and now have a dog myself. I am the trusted pet sitter for my friend group and family. I have two senior cats and years of experience in cat shelters. I have oral medication administration skills as well as a background with all breeds and temperaments. I work a 9-5 but can take long lunch breaks. Other than that I am wide open! Weekend availability and am available most days after 5pm. I care for my senior cats by making sure they have plenty of attention, play time, and food of course. I anticipate their needs and make sure they have plenty attention or space if that’s what they want.

About: Hi! I am a pet owner and enthusiast. Since I am a professor, I work from home and have a lot of free time in summers and holidays to hang out with your wonderful dog. I love getting to know a pet’s wants, anticipate their anxieties, and most importantly play! My work requires me to be on-site part time, so I am quite flexible for overnight stays, extra long walks, and boarding at my place with my sheltie Flora. I have a two bedroom apartment with my sweet, spayed sheltie Flora who loves to play and take naps. I am quite active so I would be happy to take your dog on long epic walks.
“Erica was a wonderful pet sitter. She was sweet, courteous, intuitive to our family and home, timely, and followed all instructions without hesitation. Our fur baby was happy & well taken care of upon our arrival home. We look forward to having Erica help out in the future for overnight stays, dog walks & cuddles!”


“Essence was amazing! We have a fairly difficult dog that struggles with anxiety and that manifests itself in what most would consider to be aggressive behavior. She was amazing at earning his trust and becoming a trusted person in his life. After only a couple of hours he was comfortable with her presence in our home. I cannot stress enough how rare that is for our dog! On the other side of things, she was in constant communication with us and sent many pictures and updates each day. She is clearly passionate about animals and I would recommend her services to anyone and everyone. 10/10 will book again!”

“Kai was amazing watching Cholula while I was gone! Cholula has a few quirks but Kai handled everything about her marvelously and made sure she was taken care of during my trip. I was sent multiple pictures while I was away which made me feel like Cholula was in great hands. Additionally, my apartment was in great shape when I returned. I couldn’t recommend Kai enough if you’re looking for someone to watch your pet while away, they were fantastic to work with from beginning to end!”

“Michael did an excellent job watching my dog Charlie while I was on a business trip. He catered to my dog's needs and stayed on his medication schedule and routine, which is everything. I definitely will be using Michael as a repeat sitter again and again. He's a great guy and loves animals and it show.”


About: I’ve had dogs all throughout my life, and raised/trained most of them from 8 weeks onwards. I frequently watch my friends’ pets, cats, dogs, you name it. I love both cats and dogs, and I want my own kitty soon, but seeing as I have a giant Cane Corso at home, a cat isn’t really in the cards for me right now— which is why I’m looking to get my kitty fix by lending you a helping hand! I work from home, 100% remote, so my schedule is pretty flexible, and as long as I have my laptop, I can pretty much work from anywhere. Unfortunately, due to having a giant Cane Corso in my own home, I cannot host your pet. My dog is a big baby at heart, but he’s not a big fan of strangers and is territorial of his space. I live with my fiancé, so we take turns letting our dog out for potty/playtime throughout the day when we both work from home. When he’s in the office, I make sure to let our dog out just as much as when we are taking turns. Even though I can’t host, I’m very open to traveling to you and keeping your pet company in a space they know and love. I have plenty of experience taking dogs out for walks, out to potty, and helping them get their energy out in a safe and confined area. When I watch my friends’ cats, I am very on top of making sure they get their playtime/mental stimulation in as well. As long as you let me know what your pet needs in terms of love/affection, playtime, and feeding schedule, I can accommodate!

I truly could not recommend Andrea more. She was very communicative and responsive and took such great care of my two cats. She was on time for every meal and gave great updates and pictures. My cats warmed up quickly to her and I didn’t have to worry about them while I was away!

Wow, I can’t say enough about Autumn, she is a genuine good soul and great pet sitter. She did a great job keeping us updated and when we got home we could tell our pets had been well taken care of while we were gone. She was also very respectful of our home and everything was spotless. Thank you Autumn!

Miriam did the best job taking care of our dog while we were out of town. Miriam did a great job communicating, sending photos, updates, and left our home in fantastic condition. We have a senior dog with some anxiety, and Miriam was very experienced and understanding, which truly can’t express how much that’s appreciated. Would rebook with Miriam any time and suggest you to do the same!

Ashley was great! I was lucky that she was available on short notice. She send pictures regularly and spent lots of time with my girls. This is the first rover sitter I’ve used that when I got home there were ZERO potty accidents or chewed up things. Would definitely use this sitter again.

Reilly was an amazing buddy for our Thunder! He watched our dog and our house over a long weekend, and we couldn't be happier with Reilly. We received updates with pictures of our pup, and he left our house in better shape than he found it. We will absolutely be booking Reilly again.

Nina was excellent!!! She took A+, very thorough care of my older (but still very strong) dog while we traveled internationally for over a week. She provided regular updates and left our home in perfect condition. I highly recommend Nina for house/dog sitting.

Tracy was amazing. She cared for my fur babies like her own. The pictures she sent were so awesome and even had her husband take a few professional pictures. Definitely going to use her again. I would highly recommend her for your pet care when traveling. Thank you Tracy
