About: I've taken care of pets since I was about 10, from farm dogs to show horses and almost anything in between. Currently I have bearded dragons, sugar gliders, dogs, cats, a rat and a tortoise. I don't shy from much haha I have a very flexible schedule so my day depends on what I want to accomplish. At home, the dogs have me up by 6:30 for breakfast, so mornings aren't an issue When I sit your pet for you, it's like you never left. Your rules, your routine. Tell me how you would like it done, and it will be!
“Becky did a great job caring for my cats! I really enjoyed the updates and pictures, it kept my worries at bay. One of my cats is a senior on meds and has some special care needs. He was happy and alert upon my return making me a very happy cat Mom. Becky was great to work with, I wouldn't hesitate to work with her again. Thank you Becky and Rover for the service!”

“We are new to the area and were feeling anxious about finding a pet sitter that would be kind and loving to our babies. We could not be happier that we found Jaclyn on Rover and gave her the chance. From our first time doing a meet & greet, she was genuine, honest, and explained everything she would take care of while we were out of town. Our 3 kitties loved her from the moment they met her. She did a wonderful job of sending us daily reports and photos of our babies. She checked in daily through the Rover app, always on time. One thing that stood out was how detail-oriented Jaclyn is and how she paid attention to a subtle difference in one of our cats. She reported that our 17 year old kitty was breathing differently and sent us a video. Sure enough, our girl had an upper respiratory infection and had to go to the hospital for care. We are so grateful we found Jaclyn. She is trustworthy and responsible. More importantly, she loved our babies and our babies loved her!”

“We just love Saira. She is so kind and patient with Cira. She encourages her, plays with her, teaches her new tricks, and ensures all her needs are met. She does not hesitate to communicate any concerns, ask questions, and:or provide positive feedback. We will continue to use Saira’s drop in services whenever needed.”

“Krystal was amazing with our dogs. Both are large breed dogs. She managed their unique care schedule with ease and updated us during our mini vacation. Will be reaching back out to her for future needs.”

“Linda really went above and beyond with our dog when she wasn't feeling well. Not only did she clean up after her but stayed longer to make sure she was okay. Thank you.”

“We couldn’t be happier with the care Courtney provided for our Frenchie puppy and English Bulldog! She is incredibly caring, always punctual, and truly treats our pets like her own. It’s clear how much she loves animals, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such great hands. Our pups were happy, well-cared for, and loved every moment with her. Courtney is the best!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and currently share my home with three cats and a 30-year-old Amazon parrot. My pets are my family, and that’s exactly how I treat the animals in my care. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities — from snuggly lap cats to high-energy dogs. You can count on me to follow your pet’s routine, keep you updated, and make sure they feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I’m currently not working, which means I have plenty of time and flexibility to give your pet consistent attention and care throughout the day. Pet care isn’t something I fit in around a busy schedule — right now it IS my schedule. For house sitting I treat your home with the same respect I’d want shown to my own. I follow your pet’s established routine closely, keep doors and gates secured, and I’m attentive to your pet’s behavior and needs at all times. I have three cats of my own, so I understand how important a calm, safe environment is for animals.
About: Ive taken care of cats and dogs for many years. I have family members that rely on the to take there dogs out hand help with cats. . Im currently unemployed so, I can spend time and play with your furry babys whenever you need me to or they want to ! It do not have in a fenced in area and I do own 2 cats i would prefer to come and take care of your pets where they are most comfortable
“Carlie was great with my 2 dogs! She showed up timely, sent detailed notes for each drop-in and loved on my girls when I couldn’t be home to do it myself. She came in to let them out to potty, feed them and provide medication to one. Even my little skittish baby liked Carlie soon meeting her!”

“Karrie was absolutely amazing with our dogs, Frank and Rocco! They loved her right away, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was caring, reliable, and clearly great with animals. We came home to two very happy pups and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter!”

About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember. I’m currently a dog sitter for my mom whenever she goes out of town. At most, I have taken care of 3 dogs and 2 cats at one time. I have a 6 month training in pet grooming where I learned how to read the signs of a scared or uncomfortable dog/cat, and will always respect their space when it comes to a stranger in their area! I’m currently working part time, so it’s easy for me to stop by and check on your pets! It’s more of a hobby for me than a way to make money. I love all pets! I will always make sure your dog or cat is comfortable with me. Whether that’s giving them the space they need, or making sure they received plenty of affection, or simply making sure they’re in the home!

“Kayla is just the sweetest! My family and I moved here from Baton Rouge, LA only three days before needing an unexpected sitter for our sweet, elder beagle Otis. Kayla came to our home for our in-person meeting and we (& Otis) felt comfortable immediately. She cared for Otis 3 days in a row, and left us detailed notes and the cutest photos/videos every time. We will definitely schedule her again!”

About: I’ve been raised around dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for them in every stage — from playful puppies to seniors who need a little extra patience and attention. Having supported my own dogs through their later years, I understand how important gentle, attentive care is. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work Monday through Friday from 5:30 AM to 2:30 PM, which means I’m available for early morning visits before work and have my full afternoons and evenings open for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. Because I’m off mid-afternoon, your pet won’t be waiting all day for attention. I’m able to give them consistent, reliable care and quality time — whether that’s a calm check-in, an energetic walk, or simply extra cuddles to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I will always care for your pet the way you feel most comfortable, especially in your own home. I carefully follow any instructions you leave — from feeding routines and medications to favorite toys and bedtime habits — because I know how important consistency is for their comfort and your peace of mind. If they stay in my home, they’ll be welcomed into a calm, loving environment alongside my two pets. They’ll have access to a fully fenced backyard where they can safely explore and enjoy fresh air. I’m able to separate from my cat if needed to ensure everyone feels secure and comfortable. While I’m not able to separate from my dog, he is well-socialized and used to being around other animals. My goal is always to create a safe, warm space where your pet feels cared for, understood, and at home.
“Rachel was fantastic! She took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated with photos. It's clear that she is an animal lover; she took her time and never rushed. I didn't have to worry about anything while I was away. My dog was happy and well cared for, and I will definitely be using her services again!”

“So very happy to have found someone who will care for our dog! Nikki takes the worry out of day trips for us! She spends quality time with Kade and takes him for a walk. I highly recommend!!”

Andrea has been Dizzy & Archie's sitter for a while now and we all couldn't be happier! She's almost always been available to us even on holidays, she's punctual, thorough, and she really seems to love what she does. Leaving my boys is always tough, but knowing we're in good hands with Andrea takes a lot of worry away.

Absolutely the best, kindest, and loving caretakers we have had. They saved our vacation for us by taking on the job when our sitter quit without notice until I called her Wednesday night and we were to leave on Friday morning. They happily accepted and we got to leave as scheduled. Highly recommend Dennis and Rover.

Carson went above and beyond. Teddy was anxious and did not want to get in or out of his crate. Carson was patient with him and made him feel comfortable and went the extra mile to set up a safe space for him in the bathroom. She was super kind and offered grace. I will absolutely book her again in the future!
