“Bonnie was great with our dog, Bruno, who has some particular needs since he is reactive to other dogs. She took pictures to update us which was amazing.

“We have two pups, one is epileptic. His last two episodes happened while we were out of town and they were with a sitter, so we wanted to try having someone stay at our home with them instead hoping he would be more relaxed while we were gone.

I'll definitely be reaching out to Meagan again in the future.”

About: Hi There! I've had all kinds of pets for my entire life. From rambunctious sheepdogs and sensitive chihuahuas, to gentle senior cats and curious kittens. I currently share my home with Stella, an 11 year old chihuahua/terrier mix, Raymond, a 15 year old domestic short hair cat, and Oscar, a nine-month old domestic short hair kitten, so I understand the unique needs of both senior pets and energetic youngsters! Whether it’s administering medications, offering extra patience for older pets, or keeping playful pups and curious kittens engaged and enriched, I bring attentiveness, compassion, and a calm, reassuring presence to every pet I care for. I’d love to give your pet the same level of love and care I give my own! I am currently available at all times during the week to attend to your pets. My flexible schedule allows me to take the time your pets need to eat, play and have genuine interactions with humans. I always ensure that collars with identifying tags are on before walks, and will never leave an animal out of my sight while caring for them. For households with cats, I am extremely cautious opening doors to the outside so as not to have an escapee on our hands. My number one priority is the safety of your pets, and that requires vigilance and focus.
“Aylene was so great when it came to our shy puppy. He needs someone who is patient with him and accepts his fearful behavior, and she did exactly that. She sent me updates and sent pictures that helped soothe being away from him. I would absolutely book her again for Zeus.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and truly believe every home is better with a four-legged best friend. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with all kinds of personalities and have experience with walking, feeding, grooming, giving medicine, and of course, giving lots of love. I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters in both Pittsburgh and Chicago, working with dogs of all breeds and temperaments. Taking care of pups fills my heart—I guess you could say I’m just in need of some puppy love (;! Pet care has been an aspect of my life as long as I can remember as growing up we had 3 crazy (lovable and amazing) dogs in our house. Pet care is normality. Moreover, as I just finished university and am (f)unemployed currently, I can guarantee your pets full attention and affection! treat every pet like they’re my own. In your home, I make sure to stick to your pet’s usual routine and respect your space. I keep things clean, follow all instructions carefully, and make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I focus on creating a calm and happy environment while you're away.
“We booked Nichelle this past April to help out last minute with our special needs foster dog Miss Mango while my partner and I were out of state. I reached out to Nichelle on a Monday on the same week of our leaving and she was super flexible and willing to come meet and greet the very next day. Nichelle was punctual, professional, and very trustworthy right from the start! She took great care of our foster pup, who is missing a paw and requires daily anxiety medication for her separation anxiety. Nichelle was an excellent sitter and even took Miss Mango on adventures to the park and a brewery! We arrived back from our trip so very grateful to have booked Nichelle and will definitely book with her again in the future!! Thank you Nichelle!!”
“Alyssa is the 1st Rover sitter I've had. I've never had a stranger watch my beloved LuLu so I had some anxiety about it. Alyssa set me at ease immediately! She responded quickly and communicated effectively. She took great care of my princess! Would definitely use again!! ?”
“Callahan was amazing. She took great care of our 3 medium sized dogs and was very communicative. She took photos and sent them to me every day during the 6 day stay. I’d absolutely hire her again!”
About: I've been working in the pet industry since 2018, with hands-on experience caring for dogs. Over the years, I’ve gained extensive knowledge in pet nutrition and have developed a strong ability to read dog body language. Additionally, I’ve been learning and practicing dog training techniques to further expand my expertise. At the moment, I am currently available most days of the week and weekend. Depending on the service, I only have four days available a week for overnight stays with your pet. Depending on the animal and what the client is looking for I’d like to make sure the animal gets the exercise needed, meals & lots of play! Along with lots of cuddles in between .
“My first time having Lilia housesit and watch Ollie and I was not disappointed. The updates/photos/videos she provided were the best I've ever received from a rover sitter. Her communication was superb and she left my house in amazing shape. Was receptive to Ollie's (and mine) quirks. 10/10 would hire again!!”
About: I have always had pets growing up. Back home, I have a golden doodle (Ellie) and a golden retriever (Frankie), and the cutest black cat (Wonton). I am a very active individual, and I love an excuse to get outside and go for a walk. I look forward to meeting you and your friends! I am currently teaching yoga and looking for ways to fund the next chapter of my career. I am widely available and have flexibility in hours/holidays and transportation. I have a massive fenced yard and no children at the home. There is plenty of space for your pet to run around and get some sunlight. I also have 2 roommates at home who are always excited to have new friends to hang out with!
About: I’ve had dogs in my life ever since I was born. I love to take dogs on walks, runs, hikes, or just laying on the couch and playing with toys. I only work between 8am and 2:30pm with a two hour lunch break so I can easily accommodate all your pets needs during the day and night. I have to cats in my apartment that I love and take care of. I’ve been thinking about getting a dog that I can take on walks with me but I figured I’d try this first! I’ve house sat and pet sit for lots of neighbors when I lived in Arizona!

One of my dogs has terrible separation anxiety and she managed to work with him which that in itself is a miracle! She was super patient with them and even managed to take them on walks which is awesome. Definitely recommend!
Aylene was so great when it came to our shy puppy. He needs someone who is patient with him and accepts his fearful behavior, and she did exactly that. She sent me updates and sent pictures that helped soothe being away from him. I would absolutely book her again for Zeus.
Samantha watched our two dogs at our house for four nights and she was wonderful! Super friendly, responsive, thorough, and obviously great with the pups, they liked her right away. She left the house in perfect condition and our dogs were calm and happy when we returned. We'd absolutely work with Samantha again, thank you so much!
Nathalie was a life saver for me, I had to go to Europe for six weeks and was terribly stressed about my two dogs who were starting behind. They’re used to my being with them all the time (I work from home) and I was anxious about how they would respond. Nathalie arranged to work from home as well and stayed with my dogs at my place. She took photographs almost on a daily basis, took them to the park every day, and occasionally even to the beach and bathed them on their return I left her with specific instruction which she followed to the letter. She even groomed me Aussie / Chow mix …. Lots of fur! I returned to two very happy babies who very obviously fell in love with her. After six weeks away I think I got jealous :-)
Paige was great! I really appreciated how well she took care of my dog and my home. I would definitely book with her again!
Kelsey was great!! George enjoyed his time with her staying at our house with him!! She took him on adventures and updated us daily on his activities, which we were very grateful to receive. She even took him for a bath - which is hardly a one person job since he hates it!! She treated our home like her own and left it very clean and tidy. She was extra attentive to George, followed all instructions we'd left and we would be happy to have her back again!
Mariah was great with Bruce! She was very responsive to messages and clear with communication. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog in her care.
This was the third time Meagan has watched our dog Bruno, and once again, she went above and beyond! Every time we leave town, I have complete peace of mind knowing that Bruno is in her care. Meagan is incredibly communicative and sends tons of updates, photos, and videos — which we love! It’s so reassuring to see how happy and well cared-for Bruno is while we’re away. Not only does she take excellent care of our pup, but she’s also super respectful of our home. She always leaves the house spotless and follows every instruction perfectly. It’s clear that she takes pride in her work and genuinely cares about both the pets and the people she’s helping. We’re so grateful to have found Meagan and will absolutely continue to book with her in the future.
Absolutely amazing sitter! She was wonderful with both my dog Milo and our incredibly challenging foster—by far the most timid and reactive dog I’ve had in 9 years of fostering. She was calm, structured, and incredibly patient. Her communication was excellent, with fabulous updates and photos that really put my mind at ease. She spent lots of quality time with the dogs, and I came home to a spotless house. Truly top-notch care—will 100% rebook!
