“Leanne is the best. Makes me feel very secure leaving my precious baby with her. She leaves everything exactly like you left it…I can’t even tell she’s been here. You will never regret leaving your babies in her hands.”


“This was our second time asking Emma to take care of our buddy while we were away for a wedding. She is just the BEST! She's so flexible and understanding (and tolerant!) of my requests while we're away. Bodhi seemed to be wonderfully cared for when we returned, and Emma always leaves the house as she found it. We're excited to book her again. Highly recommend!”


“Isabel could not have been more considerate and respectful of my space and my pets! So thankful for her and her care for them while I was gone. Highly recommend to all!!”


“Asheley was amazing with our senior dog and cats. Our dog got sick a few days into our trip and she was great about sending updates and making sure she was ok (and cleaning up a huge mess!). I would definitely recommend using her.”


About: I have had dogs all of my life and now have a cat. Been watching pets for 4 years now. Love animals and can’t wait to care for yours! I currently work 4 days a week and go to school Tuesday/Thursday. However, when I am not available, my boyfriend can assist in potty breaks and feeding. My dogs have a fence but I have experience walking them for potty breaks as well. I can handle some pulling too! Only hoping they are house-trained:)

“Emily was incredible! She took note of every detail, was extremely communicative, and took great care of my pup! My dog has multiple medications and Emily did amazing with handling all instructions. Would definitely recommend her to a friend and will be booking again soon!”


“Lindsey stayed at our house for 10 days to look after our 2 dogs. Our dogs were very happy and content when we came home and our house was clean and tidy. She did an awesome job and we would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone. She is trustworthy and a great communicator. Most importantly, she will look after your pup with lots of love and affection!”


“Elyssa is awesome! Her background and experience was what caught our attention, but she really was wonderful while she stayed at our house with our pup. She went above and beyond to keep the house in order and keep our little one happy. We will definitely use her again and encourage others to do the same.”


“Alicia took wonderful care of my Izzy and my place. She was amazing with sending me photos and letting me know how my Izzy Belle was doing. Definitely will ask her to sit again!”


“Jabe was amazing with our goldendoodle Winnie! Winnie just had surgery and Jabe was great with making sure she was comfortable and in her cone! Highly recommend Jabe! Also was so accommodating of our last minute need to find a sitter! Thank you Jabe!!”


“Logan stayed with our pups during the winter storm and did a great job. The apartment was clean when we got back and the dogs seemed to be very calm, including our girl with separation anxiety. Will reach out again when we need a sitter!”


“Ella was incredibly professional and thorough with house sitting my old gal. She put me at ease after having a couple of challenging house sitting events and being a bit nervous on finding another dog sitter. I will definitely be rebooking in the future.”


“I can not say enough good things about Sarah! She dog sat my 4 very rowdy dogs, and kept me up to date with all their antics with texts and pictures! I will absolutely use her again (if she’ll have us??)!!! She went the extra mile with my dogs, and I greatly appreciated that!!”


“My dogs felt comfortable and had fun with Joseph at my home while I was gone on a long trip. He gave me updates and photos and was very responsive to my messages. They got to play and go on walks. They are excited to see Joseph again during my next trip!”


“Cayla was absolutely! She was so sweet and our pup Piper loved her! She was so communicative and sent lots of pictures! I would 100% recommend Cayla for all you pup needs! Will definitely be using her again!”


“Anna was amazing…even our little temperamental elderly chihuahua mix warmed up to her. Our dogs were well taken care of and loved while we were gone!! Will definitely be booking Anna again.”

Savannah H.
“Savannah was our go-to pet sitter for years until she cruelly moved out of state (kidding… kind of). She stayed in our home several times while we were away on family trips and cared for our two dogs and two cats. We didn’t want someone just popping in a few times a day—we wanted someone who would be here, giving our pets real attention, affection, and companionship. Savannah was exactly that. All four of our pets were well cared for—and while the cats probably couldn’t care less (because, cats), our dogs were clearly thrilled to have her around! She always brought her own food and essentials, and she was a dream of a houseguest. The first time she stayed, I was honestly shocked at how clean and tidy everything was when we got home. Naturally, we were hesitant about letting someone stay in our home at first, but she came highly recommended by friends and local community members—and now we’re the ones recommending her. We were crushed when she moved to Tennessee, but if you’re in her new area, you’re in luck. Finding someone you can trust with your home and your pets is rare. Savannah is that person, and we recommend her without hesitation!”

Sylvan Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Zhiting has been my best Rover experience to date! I could tell by the questions she asked and notes she took while meeting her that she truly cares for animals. I got frequent updates and photos and it allowed me to actually relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my babies were being taken care of just as well as if I were home. I’ve already booked her for 2 more upcoming work trips🤍

After struggling to find a pet sitter who I felt could follow a complicated set of directions (elderly cat on multiple meds who needs to be monitored while she eats in case the dog decides to eat it for her), I hired Rebecca to house/pet sit while we were out of the country. While it was a stressful situation to trust a new sitter to, Rebecca's continued communication and calm put me at ease. She went above and beyond to leave our house in good condition and both pets seem happy and well-taken care of. I would definitely use her again and recommend her highly.

Kara was the best! So friendly, thoughtful and attentive to our pup before and during her stay with him! She regularly checked in, sent pics, took Strogie on long enriching walks, and overall showered him with love! She left our house in great shape -- could hardly tell anyone had been here! Highly recommend Kara to anyone.

I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Sarah took amazing care of my two dogs overnight — one older and one full of energy. She kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Both pups were happy, well‑cared for, and relaxed when I got home. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive dog sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!

Mattie was very responsive and good with our doggie! She provided updates and gave him some great couch time cuddles (his favorite) and walks outdoors (also a favorite pastime). We came back home to a happy pup and our place looked just the way we left it! We would definitely book with her again.

Sharon was a wonderful dog sitter. She stayed in our home when we were out of town. I received a lot of updates, pictures and videos. My dog was having some tummy issues and Sharon went out and bought her canned pumpkin which made her feel all better. Came home to a clean house and a happy puppy. Definitely recommend!

Elyssa is an incredible sitter! She is communicative, reliable, honest and most importantly so caring to my cat. Elyssa housesat for me this past weekend to care for my senior cat that needs to be checked on multiple times throughout the day and she did a great job. She made sure my cat had everything she needed and was very respectful of my space. I came home to a clean home and a happy cat. She even brought in a package that arrived while I was gone. 10/10 service! Thank you so much

Christine was exceptionally kind, thoughtful, and knowledgeable! She was so patient and loving with our anxious dog and made sure her and our cat were very well loved and taken care of while my partner and I were on vacation. She also left our house in amazing condition after house & pet sitting. I highly recommend her, and we will absolutely be booking her again.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-Stars for Rebecca! Rebecca was absolutely amazing with Max! From the very beginning, her communication was impressive — always timely, clear, and full of warmth. She was incredibly punctual and went above and beyond with her thoughtful updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. 💬🐾 Max adored her, and it was easy to see why! Her care and attention made all the difference, and I could tell he felt happy and safe the entire time. 🐶💛 I would 100% book with Rebecca again and recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who’s not only dependable and professional but also truly loves what she does.

Caroline recently stayed with our two kittens while we were away on vacation and she was fantastic! She kept us updated with regular photos, took great care of the house, and went above and beyond to make sure Willow and Winnie got lots of play and cuddles. Highly recommend!

Meghan was incredible! From start to finish, she communicated so well and kept me updated the entire time. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such caring hands. She truly went above and beyond—taking extra time for walks, sending the sweetest updates, and treating my pup like her own. I can’t recommend her enough and will definitely be booking with her again!
