“Betty was excellent! Came out prior to sitting our dog for a meet and greet. Gave us great updates and pictures. Walked and played fetch daily. Couldn’t ask for any better!”


“Dinira is amazing!! I travel fairly often for work and was worried when my old dog sitter moved away, but couldn’t have been luckier than to find Dinira! She sends great updates and I always come home to a happy and tired dog. She rocks!”


“Sarah did a great job looking after our three dogs! She was really good at communicating with us and giving us updates daily. We will definitely use the service again. Thank you, Sarah for a worry-free vacation!”


“Georgia was the absolute best. She kept me updated and sent adorable pics of my fur babies. My shy, people hating babies warmed right up to her. She probably treated them better than I do? I will definitely use Georgia again.”


“We are so happy to have found Fiona! She is calm and knowledgeable with DesiLu and a polite and conscientious house sitter. We will definitely book her again. This is the first time we've left our dog and were very anxious about it. Fiona kept in contact with us, reassured us, and gave us a detailed recount of the day's schedule and activities. I really appreciate Fiona's compassion and patience and highly recommend her.”


“Raina is an absolute Godsend! We have 2 dogs and 3 cats, with one dog being older and the other a 1 year old puppy - and we had pretty much resigned ourselves to never going on vacation again. Raina stayed at our house for the entire week, and our animals adored her. Even our shy skittish ghost of a cat Stella came right out and loved her. She played ball with the babydog, she snuggled the old dog, she loved on the cats. She sent us adorable pictures. She was incredible! Our animals have never been without us that long, so I expected them to be anxious and out of sorts when we got home - it was like we were never gone. She kept them so calm and comfortable that they were just happy to see me, and went right back to normal. The house was even better than we left it. Raina had everything in perfect order, everything was clean, it honestly looked better than we left it! Raina is a blessing, and I’m so glad Rover brought her into our lives!”


“Marci and I are in a constant battle of who my dog loves more and I'm fairly certain I'm losing. Athena loves when Marci comes to stay. She has very little change to her routine and I can see from the photos that she is happily curled up on Marci's lap on the couch. My neighbor even likes to tell me how happy Athena is when Marci is there. They play a lot, they sit in the sun, and she is showing her the best time!”


“This weekend was the first weekend I used a Rover sitter for my dog, Juno, and Vanessa was great! She gave me lots of updates and pictures. Juno has her quirks and Vanessa asked all the right questions that I hadn’t thought of and made me feel safe leaving Juno with her. I came home to a happy, tired dog!”


“Mckayla did a great job with our two dogs, a large pit bull and small terrier mix. She is thorough and very confident with dogs. She sent lots of pics and updates while we were gone for three days. Very respectful of our space, left everything clean and how it was before we left. Will book again ☺️”


“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Mitchie to take care of my furry family while I was out of town, and I couldn't have been more pleased with the level of attention and care that she provided. From the moment I met her, I could tell that she was a true animal lover. She was friendly and warm towards my pets, and took the time to get to know each of their individual personalities and needs. She was also very thorough in asking me about any special instructions or preferences that I had for their care, which put me at ease knowing that they were in good hands. Overall, I would highly recommend Mitchie to anyone looking for someone to care for their furry friends. She was professional, attentive, and genuinely cared about the well-being of my animals. I will definitely be hiring her again in the future!”


“Zora has been a Walker and house sitter for us! I don’t wanna say too much because i don’t want y’all filling up her schedule! Great experience, such a joy and my dogs love her!”


About: I have been around animals since I was a child. I have experience in caring for many different types of animals. I can handle puppies, anxious dogs, large dogs and anything else you can give me. I have been pet sitting for 3 years and as such have had many different experiences that have helped me to be the best sitter I can for your pets. Love and understanding can go a long way in understanding animals, and my experience makes up the difference to make me a well rounded caregiver. Pet sitting is my main job so I can devote my full time to caring for your pets. I like to stay in the house as much as possible to help lower the anxiety that the pets may feel when away from their person. I will follow any instructions given and will be sure to prioritize the safety of your pets above anything. I will care for your home as well as I care for your fur babies and will leave your house better than I found it as I always clean prior to leaving.

“Morgan always does such a wonderful job taking care of my three senior pups! I know they are in safe hands and will be well cared for. She goes above and beyond to make sure they each get love and individual time. So thankful for her!”


“Abigail looked after our fur babies while we were gone on vacation for 5 days! She was very responsive while we were gone and they seemed to have a great time. She was a great house/pet sitter!!”



About: I have been taking care of family members' dogs regularly for years, including senior dogs with special needs and puppies with no training. Over the years I have gained a working knowledge of caring for dogs with dietary restrictions and mobility issues. I have also had experience teaching two puppies potty training and leash training. Any size dog is welcome, for I have taken care of dogs ranging from six to ninety pounds. I can work around the pet's needs if given a few days to iron out personal schedules. I am in college, so if I spend the night pet sitting, I will have to allocate a certain amount of time for my classes. When in a client's home I like to have a detailed list of instructions regarding the locations of a pet's food, toys, and personal belongings. I will always strive to keep a pet's usual schedule when inside their home and leave time for them to become comfortable with me. I am not afraid of reactive dogs, I can handle ones that bark and bite easily. As the night progresses I will make sure that the home is secure, clean, and happy for the dog I am watching. I am perfectly happy to sleep with the dog on a couch or on the floor if the need arises. Special dietary needs are always important to me, so medications and food will be given correctly at the allocated times.

About: With over six years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, I provide attentive, personalized care tailored to each pup’s unique needs. From playful puppies to senior dogs and those with special needs—including mobility challenges, vision or hearing impairments—I’ve had the privilege of supporting a wide range of dogs. You can count on me to keep your dog safe, comfortable, and happy during their stay. My current schedule allows me to offer flexible, personalized care for your pet. I’m available any day or time, and any unavailable dates will be clearly blocked on my Rover calendar. I care for pets with the same love and attention I give my own. Whether in my home or yours, I follow your pet’s routine, provide a safe and comfortable environment, and make sure they get plenty of play, walks, and affection.
