“Left our fur babies for almost two weeks with Ashley. Had a wonderful vacation knowing how well-cared for they were. We received updates and photos daily. Would highly recommend!”


“Machalah has been a consistent overnight sitter for my pup for several months! He loves spending time with her and I love the peace of mind knowing he is well cared for. She is communicative, sends photos, and has been comfortable talking through his health needs - including giving medications! We look forward to continuing to have Machalah as a pet sitter!”


“Hannah did such a great job taking care of our dog and our home. Our dog is aging and a bit anxious and Hannah was very patient with her. She left our home need and tidy, we would welcome her help anytime!”


“Gussie took care of our dogs on such short notice, which was a relief after our other sitter cancelled due to a family emergency. Gussie communicated and sent photos daily, which I appreciated. One of our dogs is 17 and she met his senior needs. Our other dog usually takes a while to warm up to people, but it did not take her long to warm up to Gussie.”


“Donna did an amazing job taking care of our dog Linde. I liked the fact that she didn’t bring another dog into our home. She took care of administering our dog’s daily medicine. She also gave Linde daily massages which she loves. When we got home Linde was calm and laidback obviously not stressed. Donna also left the house better than we left it. She sent us photos and videos of Linde while we were away. We definitely will try to use Donna for future vacations.”


“Samantha was absolutely amazing! She stayed overnight with my pup and two fosters. I got lots of picture updates and she left the house clean and organized! I highly recommend and will be using her again! Thank you!!”


About: Hi! I’ve been a dog lover since my family brought home a puppy that instantly became my best friend (and greatest excuse to go on long walks). Since I was 14, I’ve been the go-to dog sitter and walker for friends and family—whether it’s tiny chihuahuas with big attitudes or German Shepherds who think they’re lap dogs. I genuinely love spending time with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to slow-and-steady seniors. I’m dependable, attentive, and always ready for a walk, rain or shine. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family and send you way too many cute photo updates, I’m your girl! I’m currently available for pet sitting and walks throughout the day. Starting in mid-August, my availability will shift to evenings (3 PM–11 PM) on weekdays and all day on weekends. I’m happy to work with your schedule as best I can just send me a message! When it comes to caring for pets, their safety and happiness are my top priorities. I prefer to stay in the pet’s home environment, where they feel most comfortable and secure. I take great care in following any instructions you leave-whether it’s about feeding, medications, walks, or routines, so your pet’s day stays as normal and stress-free as possible. I’ll stick to their schedule, respect their space, and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles (if they want them!). You can count on me to keep a close eye on their wellbeing, and to treat your pet like my own while you’re away.

“This was our first time getting someone we don't know to stay with our pets, but we will absolutely be using Lucy again if she's available. She's very sweet, communicates well, and it was obvious that our critters were comfortable with her.”


“Haley was amazing at keeping me updated with pictures and videos! Her work schedule aligned with what my dog was used to so it worked perfectly. I would definitely recommend Haley to anyone looking for dog sitter!”


“Lawdy was wonderful! She stayed at the house all weekend and took such great care of our babies. We will absolutely reach out to her again in the future. Thanks, Lawdy!”


About: I have a small pet sitting business outside of rover as well & I care for lots of different animals. I love meeting new animals and working with them, my dog Luna is very sweet and has made lots of friends from these visits. I work from home, so there’s always someone here to provide attention and care for all animals during their stay, I can provide all day care for your pets needs! All animals are allowed in any part of my home. I am comfortable in administrating medications. We have a fenced in yard for them to run and play and can offer separated potty areas or walks.


About: I’ve had family dogs my entire life and currently have my own — Miley, a 9-year-old I adopted in college. She’s a laid-back, couch-loving pup who also enjoys leisurely walks on the greenway. I nanny during the day, but my mornings are open for dog walks or check-ins, and my weekends are typically available for any of the services I offer. Miley is more than happy to share her mom’s time and love with another dog in need of care. Feel free to message me with any questions — I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! I work full time as a nanny but have mornings free to come check in on your pet or do walks! Please feel free to message me with any questions! I have cared for and been around a variety of dogs, this includes activity level and size, and i feel as though I am always ready for anything that comes my way!

“First time using ROVER, First time leaving my special needs lil boy since his adoption in Jan 20, 2023. Brisket was born blind, and I always refer to myself as his seeing eye hooman. We have a very special bond ♥️ Matthew and Erin were absolutely amazing! They went above snd exceeded all my expectations... Brisket was showered with attention, they took him outside in my fenced in backyard and played with him,and continued playing inside. I received daily messages, pictures and videos that just melted my heart and made me feel much relief knowing brisket was receiving excellent care, and attention. Upon arriving home, my house was spotless, bedsheets were changed... Matthew and Erin have set very high standards in petcare, housesitting. They will be my only choice and preference in all furure care. This young couple deserve a much higher rating, but 5:stars is all thats offered!!”
