“Alex did a super job. She asked good questions to understand my pup better, and was very attentive to her throughout the day. I look forward to using Alex’s services again real soon.”
“Dominique was an amazing sitter and took such great care of my animals! She was attentive and kind and was even able to get my dog to be more active by running with him :) I will be using her again and highly recommend her for your furry babies!”
“Rae did a great job with our little girl. She spent lots of time with her and got to know her well. She sent us photo and video updates daily. We will use her again.”
About: I've cared for family dogs most of my life which has left me with an abundance of experience with caring for dogs. I had a beautiful 13 year old pug, who I was the main caregiver for, who passed away in 2021 due to cancer. Since then, I have slowly begun to care for other people's dogs and I am absolutely loving it! My availability is currently open so it is a great time to book me! My general availability is: Mondays 8:30am-8:30pm Tuesdays-Fridays 8:30am-8:30pm Saturdays 10am-7pm Sundays 10am-7pm If your dog is more like your baby, I've got you both covered! I provide quality pet care and attentiveness to your dogs' overall wellbeing and safety. I have an overflowing supply of love and patience for animals! I look forward to meeting you and your pup!
“Marissa did a great job taking care of my dog! She was very flexible and stayed in my house even on Thanksgiving. Marissa left the house nice and clean - which is especially valuable during the pandemic. The dog looks happy, walked and fed. I definitely recommend Marissa for your next house sitting!”
“Emma was a lifesaver! She jumped on a last minute request to take care of my dogs and spoiled them with love, cuddles, and care. She kept me updated the whole time, which really put me at ease, and treated them like her own. My dogs were so happy with her, I’ll definitely be booking again. Thank you Emma!!!❤️”
“Ashley took such good care of our girl, Ellie! She kept us updated throughout the weekend and played and snuggled with her. We greatly appreciate her care and attention! ?”
“Jasmine is AWESOME! We have used her to house and doggo sit for our Stella 3 times now. Our Stella loves her, and we will certainly be using her again when we need a sitter, if possible!”
About: I have had pets for 17 years and so far I have 2 cats and 5 very friendly dogs. I know every behavior and jests at them or if they feel sick I am at home full time. The only time I go out is to go to the market and the occasional medical appointment. The rest of the time I will be caring for and raising your little loved one. My house has a secure fence, a yard to run around in. They will have fun meeting new friends. When they get tired they will sleep in a bed or blanket if they want.
About: I offer reliable, loving dog care with plenty of attention, playtime, and patience. I treat every dog like family and adapt to their energy level, routine, and personality so they feel safe and happy in my care. I carefully follow all owner instructions, including feeding, walks, medications, and special care needs. Whether your dog loves active play or just wants companionship and reassurance, I make sure they’re comfortable, well cared for, and given lots of affection while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I currently have a flexible schedule while working on building my own entrepreneurial business. That flexibility allows me to dedicate quality time to each pet and adapt to their routines, whether that means visits, walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company. I’ve been pet sitting for years for family, friends, and acquaintances, and it’s always been one of my favorite side gigs because I genuinely enjoy caring for animals and getting to know their personalities. Since it’s something I’ve done and loved for a long time, I decided to start offering my services to more people in my local community. At this time, I’m only able to offer care in my client’s home, where pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I take time to get to know each pet’s personality and adapt to their individual needs. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and routines, and I always make sure fresh water is available. I also provide playtime, affection, and companionship based on what each pet is comfortable with, whether they want lots of cuddles or a little extra personal space. I pay close attention to their behavior and physical condition so I can quickly notice if something seems off, helping ensure they stay safe, healthy, and happy while you’re away.
“Norberto is incredibly prompt and responsive, and handled our high-energy husky like a professional. Norberto is very loving and affectionate as well, and it was a huge relief to have our dog in such capable hands while on vacation. I will definitely use Norberto again in the future.”
“Jackie was very helpful and patient with our shorty bulldog. He can be quite particular on walks or around other dogs. She constantly updated us with photos and information regarding his medicine. Would definitely be utilizing her services in the future. We would highly recommend booking with Jackie!”
“Amelia was helpful, responsive, and incredibly responsible with both my pups and my home. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter for their dogs. The pics she sent me throughout the day were welcome and her amiable demeanor helped myself and my dogs relax.”

“Daisy was so great with my pets! We have a young puppy who is not always the easiest to handle and she was very patient and understanding. She gave so many updates on how the pets were doing and went above and beyond! Definitely would use her again in the future 🙂”
“Marie-Pierre was recommended to us by a friend and I’m so grateful for the referral! I have a hard time trusting my dogs with anyone and Marie Pierre was so communicative with me and patient with the dogs (especially our rescue, who has a hard time when I leave)! The dogs warmed right up to her and I know she took great care of them! She also went above and beyond to leave my home cleaner than when she arrived! I highly recommend Marie! Thank you!!!”

Beth has been so great! Frank was thrilled to see her again, and she clearly enjoys spending time with him. She is great about following my directions, and takes such good care of.him and our home. It is so important to be able to trust the person staying in your home and caring for your canine family member. So happy to have Beth as our sitter again.
Our family can’t thank Ashley enough for doing such an amazing job pet sitting for our 5 dogs. As a first time user of rover, she made the whole process very easy. From meet and greet and all the way to the end of the service. She follows instructions to the tee and gives updates constantly with pictures. She makes extra effort caring for our dogs like it was her own. She is a very highly recommended sitter. You will not go wrong with Ashley
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for our two dogs while we were away on vacation. From the start, Melissa took the time to understand our dogs’ routines and made sure everything stayed consistent, from feeding schedules and walks to playtime and bedtime habits. What impressed us most was how quickly our dogs grew comfortable and trusting Melissa. One of our dogs can be a little skittish at first, but it was clear they felt safe, relaxed, and genuinely cared for the entire time we were gone. We also appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind when we were away. Coming home to two happy, calm dogs confirmed they were in great hands. We highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter!
I can’t thank Allison enough for the incredible care she gave my dog. As a first-time Rover user with a very anxious pup, I was incredibly nervous about leaving him, especially since he was just one of four dogs she was looking after. However, Allison went above and beyond to make sure he felt special and safe. She sent hourly photo updates and sweet comments that kept me connected to him during my event. Seeing his happy face in a house full of new friends completely put my heart at ease. She turned what could have been a stressful day into a smooth, wonderful experience. If you have a nervous dog, she is truly the best person to trust!
Greatest person to watch your dog. Very flexible with any times and treats your dog like one of his own. And he takes great care of his dogs for sure. Tyler will dedicate the entire time you book to making your pet feel like a rockstar and it doesn’t get any better than that.
We’ve used Carla multiple times and have always had a great experience. She is reliable, communicative, and clearly care about our dog. We get regular updates and photos, and our pup is always happy and relaxed when we get home. It makes everything so much easier knowing our dog is in good hands. Highly recommend.
I would totally recommend Eleanor! It was my first time having a dog sitter and she was excellent. My husband and I were worried about leaving as we just moved here but Eleanor made everything a breeze. She took great care of our dog and sent updates multiple times a day! Overall it was a great experience and I would definitely book with her again!
This is the second time Kaitlin has looked after Lola. The day before our trip, Lola had a problem with her eye, and the vet prescribed drops. Kaitlin reassured us that she was in good hands. She was so patient and loving with Lola. She administered the drops and sent us pictures and updates. Her eye was getting better and better! We were able to enjoy our son's graduation and return home with a happy dog! Kaitlin is the best! I'm so glad we found her!
Emma was wonderful with my pets! My cat is shy around strangers and also is diabetic. He warmed up to Emma quickly, and she gave him his insulin shots without a problem. She kept me updated with pictures and videos. When you're on vacation, seeing them, even in pictures, is important!
