Keith was very easy to work with. He was flexible with our travel date changes, very responsive and was able to keep up with changes in meds and walking schedule when my dog injured his paw days before we left. I felt comfortable leaving him with my shepherd, who is very strong and can be reactive on walks. He understood how to manage a big dog and knew how to use a prong collar. He sent pictures regularly which allowed me to enjoy my trip worry-free!

Our dog received excellent care from Madi for an overnight house sitting. Madi communicated regularly and provided several updates and pictures. Our home was kept clean. Most of all, our dog seemed to have a fun and comfortable experience. We would highly recommend Madi!

Danielle was truly heaven sent while we were on our honeymoon. Our dog has special needs and she handled everything like a pro! Our pup even had some tummy troubles while she was there and she went absolutely above and beyond to take care of him until we could get back. We are so grateful to have found Danielle and we will absolutely book with her again!

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with two large dogs of my own, one energetic and playful and one older, calmer pup. They’re both very social and love making new friends, so if your dog enjoys companionship, they’ll have built in buddies during their stay. We welcome dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’m especially comfortable with large breeds, as my Labrador Retriever is 105 pounds and my Bernese Mountain Dog is 113 pounds, so I’m experienced handling bigger, stronger dogs on walks and during playtime. Your pup will get lots of attention, supervision, and outdoor time throughout the day. I’m also active and love being outside, so whether your dog prefers walks, runs, backyard playtime, or sticking to their normal routine, I’m happy to make sure they feel safe, exercised, and right at home. I love getting to know each pup ahead of time, so I do require at least 3 days notice to allow for a meet and greet before booking. My husband and I both work from home full time, which allows us to provide frequent potty breaks and constant supervision. We also have separate office spaces, so if any dogs need a break from playtime or a calmer environment, we are able to separate them as needed. With two dogs of our own, we are fully stocked with the essentials including toys, treats, water bowls, beds, and more. We also have a fully fenced in yard with a gate, so the dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time without worry.

Riya did an excellent job caring for our 2 year old toy poodle while we are out on vacation as a house sitter. She fed him, walked him and made sure to send us a daily update with pictures on his activities - giving us the peace of mind he was safe and cared for while we were away from our little boy. We will be sure to use Riya’s services again the next time we need to travel and need someone to watch Wilkie at home.

Elizabeth is the absolute best and I highly recommend you use her for your pet sitting needs. This was my first time using Rover. I have a larger dog and a cat and I usually would take them to a kennel or have them boarded. I thought I would try Rover when I went on a short road trip and I had no idea what to expect. Elizabeth was the perfect choice. She showed up multiple times a day. Walked my dog, gave my cat treats and sent me dozens of photos over the course of the 5 days that I was gone. She even left a small gift bag with toys and bandanas for my pets that I discovered when I returned home. If you ever need a pet sitting service the first thing you should do is see if Elizabeth is available. If I could give her ten stars I would.

About: Adult cat owner for a year and a lifetime of pet care and sitting experience. I work remotely in communications and marketing, so I have open availability and am very flexible with my time and attention. I’ve been an in-house sitter and dog walker for many friends over the last several years and have lots of experience with senior pets and anxious dogs. I work from home, fully remote, so I’m very flexible! Most of my job involves on-screen virtual meetings, writing and phone interviews so I’m happy to break up my day with walks, cuddles, snuggles and play time! I have an indoor-only cat who loves playtime and cuddling, but I also have experience sitting for anxious dogs and senior pets. I’m patient, calm and caring, and happy to sit with them, walk them or play indoor and outdoor.

August was wonderful with my fur baby and my home. It was so much easier to just leave and go on vacation instead of packing my dog up with all her stuff and trying to pick her up. I think it was less stressful for both of us. I definitely will be using August in the future.

Kristen did a fantastic job with our two dogs while we were out of town for 5 days! She was very responsive to communication the entire time. We didn’t return to any accidents or messes we had to clean up which for us is a blessing as one of our dogs tends to have some potty issues when we are gone for an extended period. Usually our dogs are super excited to see us when we return- this time I think they were disappointed to see us and not to see Kristen!! Would definitely rebook ☺️

If I could rate her 20 stars I would! She cared for my dog Vito while I was on a vacation and he had so many adventures with her and her dogs. He was very comfy with her both in my home at night and at her house during the day and she followed all my instructions and even gave me some cool new ideas to implement into our relationship with him now.
