About: Always providing lots of love for dogs. Love to play and cuddle with dogs! Will be responsible and caring for your dog like my own! Will treat each and every dog with outstanding service, care, and love. Fun and adventurous dog walks are my favorite. Have been a dog care person since I was born and have always had a dog in the house. Lots of experience. Will lay down and cuddle with dogs, play fetch, provide treats, be cautious, aware, and loving always. I respond fast to alerts and will send updates and check ins when caring for dog. I am willing to help out as much as possible. Very flexible with needs of dogs. Will make every dog feel special every time I care for them! I am a remote worker with a very flexible schedule. Drop ins / walk times are pretty flexible & easy for me to get to! This allows me to give your pet my undivided attention while I am there. I have a fenced yard with a good amount of space for your pet to roam around! I am in a 2 - story town home so there is plenty of roam for pets!
“Wow, I can not believe the great job that she did and will definitely be using her services again. I was left a little in a predicament when another sitter backed out in me just 3 days before I was supposed to be gone for a week. Denise answered my last minute plea for help and we did a meet and greet with the animals. She did a great job taking care of them and I am sure they will miss her especially Coco, who she always took on walks. I highly recommend her.”
“Matthew stayed at our place over the holiday weekend, and watched our 2 dogs. No issues whatsoever and he was great about sending us updates and pictures while we were away! Will definitely be booking Matthew again!”
About: I have a lifelong passion for animals and grew up surrounded by dogs, which taught me the responsibility and patience required to be a great caregiver. My experience ranges from energetic small breeds to powerful large dogs, so I am comfortable and confident handling pets of all sizes. I also have a soft spot for senior dogs and understand the gentle touch and extra attention they often need to feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet needs a high-energy walk to burn off steam or a calm presence to sit and play with them at home, I prioritize their safety and happiness above all else. I pride myself on being reliable and attentive to each dog’s unique personality and routine. I’m excited to provide your pets with the same love and care I’ve given my own throughout my life! I have a very pet-friendly schedule! I work from home every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, which allows me to provide your pet with constant companionship and potty breaks throughout the day. While I am typically in the office on Mondays and Fridays, I have the flexibility to work from home on those days as well with a little bit of notice. Your pet will rarely be alone. Because I don’t currently have pets of my own, your pet becomes my sole priority and receives my 100% undivided attention. In your home, I focus on maintaining their established routine to keep them stress-free. Whether it’s high-energy walks and active play or simply hanging out in their space to provide a calm presence, I adapt to their vibe. I’m happy to offer a 'hands-on' approach for cuddlers or a hands-off approach for more independent pets, and I am always flexible with special accommodations to ensure they feel safe and cared for.
“Annamaria is flexible, patient and adaptable! She made an international trip a breeze by taking care of my three rescues. I will definitely be rebooking. So grateful for her help.”
“Absolutely phenomenal lady!! My dogs are a bit of a handful sometimes (two Dobies) and she rocked it!! Sent me pix and updates throughout her stay and even worked with me since I was getting back late due to my daughter’s birthday. HIGHLY recommend!!!”
“She updated me everyday about my dog Cara about how she was doing and sent me pictures which made me feel very comfortable and secure as I was out of town will definitely be using her again in the future and my dog loved her”
“Lindsey was great with my pups! I was so nervous as this was my first time and I am so happy with her staying at my house to take care of my babies while I had to go on a work trip! Definitely recommend Lindsey if you have pet sitting needs!”
“Evelyn was nothing short of amazing! She took care of two crazy GSPs and made sure they were happy and healthy. One of ours needed medication and special attention while we were away and it did not phase her at all. Would recommend to anyone!”
“I can't say enough good things about Alexis! She stayed with our three dogs for two nights, and she was absolutely fantastic. She was incredibly attentive, especially with their medication needs, and she really understood our shepherd and pitbull, who are usually a bit uneasy with new people. We came home to happy, calm pups, and we are definitely planning to rebook with her in the future. She also kept us updated on how everyone was doing and provided pictures. Highly recommend her!!!!”
“Leandra took great care of our pup and kitty and home! She was very flexible with our schedule changes and followed our very specific instructions we left as well as sent many updates to ease us since this was our first getaway leaving the babies behind. On her way out our puppy licked her which was evident she loved her time with her. Thank you for your help we will definitely be re-booking for future getaways!”
“Jasmine was an excellent communicator and gave me plenty of updates regarding my pups. She was very responsive and willing to accommodate the needs of my dogs. I totally recommend her and will absolutely use her again in the future.”
“Ben was an amazing sitter and took to the girls very well. And they to him. He gave them the perfect amount of love and support necessary for them to feel safe while we were away. Definitely would love to have Ben back and sit for us in the future.”
“Alexis was amazing with our babies ! The pictures, videos, and wonderful communicated really helped put us at ease while using Rover for the first time. Our dogs were very well loved and cared for and we will definitely be returning customers for her services.”
About: I grew up on a farm caring for a variety of animals. I currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats of my own as well as a tortoise and lots of fish! I have experience pet sitting for family and friends and neighbors. I am able to care for babies as well as seniors. I'm not certified but I've trained my own pets along with my family's pets. I am currently a grad student and work part-time, I am available to work all day Monday, mornings before 9am Tuesday-Friday and evenings after 4:30pm. Sometimes my school schedule may change but I'm always going to communicate changes to my schedule! Weekends are available if needed. I have a system with my babies, they eat twice a day in the morning and evening. I usually let them run outback and they play with the dogs on either side of my house. One cat likes to go outside occasionally, but otherwise they stay with me and I'll play with them while I do schoolwork or relax. I love taking my dogs on walks and playing with them as well.
“Z’le did an amazing job caring for our pups while we were away for our wedding and honeymoon. She watched them for 3 weeks. They had a bit of a hard time adjusting at first, but Z’le comforted them and really took charge of the situation! Absolutely recommend!!”
“Kayla was great. From the start I felt comfortable with her, she makes the effort to meet with you and your pet beforehand and keeps you updated while away. I will for sure be using her services in the future.”
“Good service: Good communication and promptness, excellent rates, and my dog seemed pleased. I’ll definitely use Soraya again if needed in that area (probably in 2 months from now).”
Sun Gate pet parents share their Rover experiences
Makala was amazing with Terre! She was reliable, communicative, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. What stood out most was how much Terre loved her. I got to spend some time with her myself, and Terre kept going over to cuddle with her, which says a lot because he’s usually pretty attached to me. It was obvious that he felt safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
Ben and Allison have been the best pet care we've ever used! They went above and beyond in every way possible and did things to make our arrival home even better than we could have imagined, making sure everything was tidied and clean. Our dogs had first class care and we received the most detailed and entertaining updates and photos/videos while we were gone. I think our animals were disappointed when we arrived home and they realized Ben and Allison wouldn't be around for a while. 😂 Thank you guys for the relief and piece of mind you gave us while we were gone. You are super star sitters and we can't wait to book you for next time!
This was the first time that I book with Rover and Megan set the bar high! She was incredible with my senior dog, Gailey. She managed her daily walks and her medications faithfully. Her communication and pictures throughout the week were so appreciated. Megan, thank you so much for all the good care and love you gave my Gailey. It gave me peace of mind, knowing she was well cared for. I came home to a happy dog and a super clean house! I would highly recommend Megan to anyone looking for a sitter.
Madison was great with our pups! We have a rescue who’s very anxious and unsure of new people and he warmed up to her very quickly. She made sure to ask questions to make sure they got the best care possible. She followed all of our instructions and they seemed to have a great time with her, we would definitely book again & highly recommend her!
Karen was absolutely wonderful! We received frequent updates and took such amazing care of our pup as shown through the photos. She left the house immaculately clean and even washed her bedding. We were not expecting that! We will definitely use her again and she was an amazing fit with our reactive pup.
Juilanna did great with all of our pups and they loved her! Communication was great throughout the whole visit and she included plenty of pictures to keep us updated. She did an excellent job of making sure all of our pups needs were met especially for our biggest boy who was recently sick with pneumonia! She followed the rules given and kept the house clean, no issues. She was great! We will definitely be reaching out for future visits!
We were nervous for someone we didn’t know to pet and housesit. Steven did two visits with us and our pets to make sure we all felt comfortable. Upon returning home from vacation, our pets were happy to see us but they didn’t seem overly excited or stressed. This was a good sign that our pets were relaxed with Steven while we were away. We will be asking Steven to sit for us again in the future. Very happy with his care of our pets and home.
Monserrath was absolutely great! Kept us updated on how the pups were doing, giving each of them attention, and with 5 dogs, she had her hands full. She also provided us with great pup report cards at the end of her stay, noting behaviors, eating, and little details on how each pup did during her stay. We hope to use Monserrath again in the future!
