“Nina has stayed with her twice now, and both experiences have been absolutely wonderful. She treats Nina with so much love, patience, and care that I always have complete peace of mind while I’m away. I always receive updates and photos, and it is clear that Nina is happy, safe, and loved. Seeing how comfortable and relaxed Nina is with her means everything to me. She has earned my complete trust, and she will always be my first choice whenever I need someone to care for Nina. I recommend her with all my heart. Thank you for taking such amazing care of my little girl!”

About: I’m a caring, patient, and responsible pet lover who understands that pets are part of the family. I know how important it is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine, provide plenty of attention and playtime, and keep you updated with photos and messages. I’ll treat your pet with the same care and respect I’d want someone to give my own. I maintain a consistent weekly routine and value being dependable and organized. I work full-time during the week, but I plan my time carefully to make sure I can give pets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m happy to accommodate morning and evening walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and weekend care based on my availability. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, so I do my best to stick to their normal routines and keep owners updated while they’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, dietary needs, and any special instructions before providing care. I’m attentive, patient, and responsible, and I make sure pets are supervised appropriately and kept in a safe environment. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions carefully. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands. I’ll treat your home with respect and care for your pet as if they were my own.
“I would definitely recommend Jill’s services as a dog sitter. She was great to work, flexible with drop off and pick up times, and even sent me some videos of my pug while I was on vacation.”
“Carol and Steve are fantastic! They took great care of our dog, have a great fenced in yard and were extremely accommodating! They sent updates and pictures and were very responsive. Would highly recommend!”
“Emily is the best. She is communicative, understanding, & most of all loves dogs :) Manuka always comes home happy and tired. We’ll continue to use Emily for our sitting needs 🥰”
“Jill was very welcoming to my high energy & anxious Dutch Shepherd that has never been boarded. She has a nice house and yard that allowed my dog to comfort and freedom she is used to. Jill spoiled my dog with love & attention she almost wanted to stay with her!! We will definitely use her again. Thanks Jill!!”
“Michelle took amazing care of my dog! Great communication and lots of pictures. I know my dog enjoyed all the attention and getting the opportunity to play with other dogs. We will definitely be in touch for our next trip.”
About: Over 20 years of experience, including elderly dogs and puppies. I love dogs and enjoy walks, park visits, games and couch snuggles. I know how important it is that your furry family members are taken care of to the fullest extent possible when you are away. I currently have a 10 month old standard poodle and she is my whole world. I understand how important this job is! I am an artist and work part time at my home studio. My flexible work schedule allows plenty of time for dog walks, park visits, play, attention and engagement throughout the day. I have a fully fenced in yard and a very friendly (well socialized) 10 month old standard poodle who loves having friends to play with. Our home is 4,200 square feet with plenty of space for dogs to play and settle in. We also have the first floor entirely puppy proofed, making it safe for even the youngest of curious explorers.

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
