“Peter was great with truffle! He came on time and took truffle for a nice long walk. Truffle was all smiles on return and had yhe zoomies ..so he’s ready to go again. Thanks Peter !”


“I had the pleasure of having Fallon watch my dog, Ice, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was extremely reliable and always on time, which gave me great peace of mind. Fallon was so sweet and gentle with Ice, treating her with genuine care and affection. It’s clear she has a natural love for animals and a kind, trustworthy personality. I would definitely recommend Fallon to anyone in need of a dependable and compassionate dog sitter!”


“Cheryl & Elmar each dropped-in to visit my new 10 week old puppy who is adapting to his parents going back to work. Hudson absolutely loved playing with them and they provided plenty of pictures and videos to ensure Hudson was comfortable and having a great time.”


“This was our second time working with Sarah and we are so pleased with the care and attention she took with our cat, including giving her medication. We feel safe leaving our cat in Sarah’s care and we look forward using her services again!”


“Phil was awesome right from the start meeting him. Being a dog trainer myself I am very picky and particular with who I choose to watch my dogs. He did exactly what I asked and needed him to do and more and couldn't have been happier with the results and my dogs seemed very comfortable with him as he did with them. He gives detailed descriptions of each visit and leaves you feeling at ease when under his handling and care. Highly recommend he will be my guy going forward. Thank you Phil!”


“Lauren has taken care of my 3 year old cat twice now. Once for about a week and once for a couple days. Both times he was happy when I got back, his litterbox was in great shape and I got a lot of cute photos of him playing while I was away. Will continue to use Lauren when I need a sitter.”


“Rebecca was amazing! My cat can be anxious around strangers, and I was super nervous using rover for the first time, but she was so fantastic (with both of us). I couldn’t have asked for someone better. I will definitely be going back to Rebecca anytime I need someone to drop in my cat.”


About: As a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience, being a dog sitter is more than a job—it’s a passion. I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, always treating them like part of the family. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just providing comforting company, I’m dedicated to making every pup feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away! As someone who works from home with a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time and attention to give your dog throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just companionship, I’m here to make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. With me, your dog won’t just be looked after—they’ll be part of a calm, happy home. As a dedicated dog sitter living in a spacious, pet-friendly apartment, I offer a safe and comfortable environment where your dog can feel right at home. With plenty of room to play indoors and several great dog parks just a short walk away, your pup will get the exercise, attention, and love they need. Whether it's playtime, cuddle time, or a relaxing stroll, I’m here to give your dog the care they deserve.

“Andrea is doing a wonderful job with my little man, Romeo. She is very attentive to his needs and whenever there a scheduling issue she has no problem changing things around. Lots of purrs and snuggles when I came home, definitely recommend!”


“Sangah took wonderful care of our cat while we were out of town! We just needed drop-in visits to make sure Jojo had enough food and water, and Sangah was super reliable and sent nice updates every day! Definitely recommend her for your pet-sitting needs!”


“Wonderful job taking care of our bunny. Daily drop ins were a success. She went above and beyond when our bunny ran out of pellets and ran to Petco for a refill. She even brought in our mail daily. She provided updates and pictures daily! I would totally trust Jenn in the future! She makes it easy to vacation knowing our bunny is in good hands.”


About: I’ve taken care of big dogs such as golden retrievers and golden doodles since I could walk, since we used to always have a dog at home. Since then, I have helped friends take care of their dogs, from big to small, puppies to seniors. I love animals and would love to help fellow pet owners out whenever they need! I’m currently working full days only twice a week, on Tuesdays and Thursdays. This allows me to keep my Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays open, as well as some weekends. While I do have a fenced back yard, I have a pool that would make it less likely for playtime in the yard. That being said, there are multiple open parks near by and I love to walk with dogs or play with them at the park. My home is spacious inside, so pets will have freedom to roam around. I am also happy to set up a crate for a pet, provided by the pet owner.

About: I have been taking care of my dog for about 7 years now, I have been feeding him and playing with him, I love them. I work a part time job so in my free time I like walking dogs and seeing other dogs and everything they have to give. I have a fence so he can play when he wants on the deck or if he wants a walk. If they misbehave I can crate them so they can learn.

About: I treat my dog as if he were my own biological son and I will gladly make sure your furry friends are as comfortable as possible when they’re with me. I have experience with medium to small dogs, old dogs, puppies, and cats with asthma. My love for animals goes so far back that I wrote in my Elementary school year book that my dream job was to be a Dog Walker when I grew up! I work remotely and have the ability to be more present and available for any animal needs throughout the day/week. I can also be flexible and care for them before or after my working hours. I want to keep your little ones on their usual schedule, doing things exactly how you typically do things. I will stick to any snack or food guidelines you have and will happily help with any medications or special needs required. I am very patient and understand that all dogs have different personalities just like us. My hope is that we will have some fun and get some daily exercise at the same time.

“This was my first experience with Rover and it was great! Karen was amazing with my very nervous but sweet fur babies! She consistently updated us with pictures and just their general well being, as we were away traveling. Mr Jin and Wendy cannot wait to have her back again! :)”


“Maia took great care of my cat. My cat Miko is 15 years old and has a very nervous personality, so I was nervous about leaving Miko during my vacation, but I was able to be on vacation with peace of mind that Miko was being lovingly cared for. Maia reported her condition in detail every day and sent me lots of pictures. I would definitely leave my cat with Maia again in the future. She is the best sitter - kind, reliable and responsible! Thank you so much for everthing!”


About: Dogs are like children for me. Pet's needs come first than anything else in my life. Dogs live in their families' hearts. For dogs, their family is their world. Dogs never want to be separated from their families even for a day or hours. When their family is away, dogs need more love, more attention, more petting to give them comfort. I never ignore pets. Their company makes me feel loved. Your dog will enjoy more than you when you go on vacation. I would be happy to serve your dog - food cooked by you with no extra charge. Your dog will get GMO free organic treats. You can also provide your dog's favorite treats. No crates - only if owner wants and brings. Your dog will never be alone, complete day and night care. Clean filtered water always next to them day and night. I change their drinking water multiple times. I work part time from hone So I am always available for my dog guest. I order my groceries online when I am watching my dog guest. Your dog will never be left alone in the house. I use gates inside the house if needed for their safety. I walk one dog at a time.

“Brianna is a lovely girl and very responsible. She treated Darla, are older dog with such care and love and was here three times a day and sent us pictures. I highly recommend that she take care of your dog......She's the best!”


About: As a dog mom to 2 rescues, and dog aunt to 3 lovely nephews, I have years of experience caring for our furry family. I've trained puppies, dog sat, and cared for other dogs like they were my own. I've also cared for dogs with a range in behavior, whether calm and chill, or a bit more temperamental and needing more patience. I understand that your pet is your family and treat any dog under my care like my own! I work from home during the week. This makes my schedule relatively flexible, so if there are any weekdays not listed you would need, message me and I can try and accommodate. If dogsitting, I simply adhere to whatever rules and routines you have for your pet, as I respect that each owner already has their own routine best for their dog. My backyard is spacious and fenced in, and our dogs enjoy getting to explore it. When the weather is nice, we enjoy longer walks in the neighborhood.

About: For the past five years, I have worked at an animal shelter where I gained hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including walking, sitting, and providing daily companionship; this experience has deepened my understanding of animal behavior and strengthened my commitment to their well-being. I’m currently finishing my senior year of high school so I am available weekdays after 4pm and over the weekends from 11am-5pm. Over the summer the weekend hours will go to the weekend I prioritize safety, trust, and a positive environment when caring for pets in my home or a client’s. This includes pet-proofing spaces to eliminate hazards, securely managing doors and gates, and following all feeding and medication instructions carefully. I build trust by maintaining pets’ usual routines, using gentle handling, and providing regular updates to owners. To create a comfortable and stimulating environment, I keep areas clean, offer toys and affection, and ensure pets have cozy bedding and fresh water. Whether dog walking, pet sitting, or drop-in visits, my goal is to provide attentive, loving care that puts both pets and their owners at ease.

“As Teddy's father, I've had the privilege of watching him grow into an incredibly kind, responsible, and thoughtful young man—especially when it comes to animals. From a very early age, he showed a deep empathy for pets and a natural ability to connect with them. When our neighbors went on vacation, Teddy stepped in without hesitation, making sure their dogs were not just cared for, but loved and given plenty of attention and playtime. He approaches every task with maturity and a big heart. Whether he’s out walking dogs in the neighborhood or simply sitting with a nervous pup to keep them company, he brings calm, warmth, and a strong sense of responsibility. I’d trust him with any pet, any time. He’d be an incredible asset to the Rover community.”


Natalie R.
