“Brittany delivers extraordinary service. We have never been disappointed and we have used her numerous times. If you want someone who will take care of your pets like they’re her own, Brittany is the sitter for you.”
“This is the second time Stephanie has been watching my dog and it’s been so great. She is communicative and kind. I will definitely continue to book her for future trips!”
“Angie was amazing! One of my dogs is very uncomfortable with strangers and within 5 minutes they were best buds. I was very relieved to be able to go out of town knowing that my babies wouldn’t be stressed and would be in great hands. They can’t wait to see Angie again next week!”
“Jeni is great! Super responsive, communicative, and loving. She sent great pics and went above and beyond in helping us manage a vendor who had to come to the house when we were away. We look forward to booking her again soon! 🐾”
“Rym did a wonderful job watching our dog and cat over Easter weekend. She was very communicative, sent lots of pictures and updates, and our animals were happy and well cared for when we returned. We would definitely use her again!”
“Bianca watched our girl Bindi in our home over the Thanksgiving break. She was easy to communicate with and sent us daily updates. She even picked up some packages for us that were unexpectedly delivered. Everything was spotless when we returned to a happy and relaxed pup. Would absolutely recommend her to others and would love to have her watch Bindi again. :)”
About: Hi, I’m Yoli. I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and treat every pup as if they were my own. I understand that each dog has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I thoughtfully adapt my care to meet their individual needs. I recently lost my dog of 13 years, and caring for her through every stage of life deepened my understanding of patience, consistency, and the unconditional love dogs deserve. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. Because I do not have other pets at home, your dog will receive my full focus in a calm, structured, and loving apartment environment. Whether your pup enjoys active walks, relaxing strolls, structured routines, or quiet companionship, I make sure they feel secure and comfortable while you are away. I am also comfortable caring for senior dogs and administering basic medications if needed. Safety, reliability, and clear communication are very important to me. I follow your dog’s routine closely and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected during their stay. I look forward to meeting you and welcoming your furry family member into a peaceful, caring home.
“Taylor was lovely! Our house was clean when we got back despite our gremlins running amok in our absence. She was communicative everyday and our babies loved on her and snuggled with her too. ♡”
“Camryn was amazing. She checked in regularly & sent photos of my 3 pups. I could tell they were having a blast with her. They are all senior gals, the oldest being 17. When I got home, they were all so happy, everything was clean (including them! Which is hard when you're battling incontinence and bladder issues). Camryn is top notch and my gals cannot wait for me to go out of town again!!!”
“Melanie did a good job with my boys (Persian cats). She sent daily updates and pictures as requested! We came home to some instant pictures that she had taken and left for us which was very sweet!”
About: I’m a warm, gentle and consistent caregiver with over a decade of experience working in Emergency, specialty, End‑of‑Life, and Primary Veterinary Medicine. As a current CVT student and graduate student, I bring medical knowledge, compassion, and calm confidence to every pet I care for. I specialize in senior pets, medicated pet care (oral, injectable, topical, etc.), hospice support, and post‑surgical recovery. Every pet I meet is treated like family, and I’m honored to care for your fur baby with the same love and attention I give my own. I currently work from home so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pet's needs! I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, and cuddles! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I work from home with Lap of Love, which means I’m in a calm, quiet, and compassionate environment every day. Because of my veterinary background and CVT schooling, I’m attentive to subtle changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, and stress levels. I follow all safety protocols, use fear‑free handling, and maintain a clean, peaceful space for pets who may be anxious, senior, or recovering. You can trust that your pet will be cared for with patience, gentleness, and medical awareness at all times.
“Teagan did a great job watching Niko and left my apartment immaculate. Very kind and provided regular updates for Niko which put my mind at ease and let me enjoy my trip to the fullest. Definitely found a long term dog sitter!”
“Kameron was awesome! My dogs immediately took to him! My aloof dog even cuddled u to him first night! 🥰 Great communication /dog pics and quick response times.”
“Always know our girls are loved when Chrissonna stays with them. Our house is just like we leave it when she stays. We have had great experiences with Chrissonna and will continue to have her take care of our babies.”
“My experience with Jennifer as a dog sitter was absolutely wonderful. She stayed overnight at my apartment and took exceptional care of both of my dogs, making sure they were comfortable, safe, and well-loved the entire time. I especially appreciated the regular photo updates and check-ins, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear my dogs were happy and relaxed in her care. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and communicative sitter.”
“Orima is so incredibly sweet. I left both of my pitbull babies with her overnight and she kept me updated and informed every step of the way. Both of them looked incredibly happy and well adjusted in all of the photos she sent. I will definitely be booking with Orima again.”
“Yvonne has been great, and she clearly loves animals! We had her stay at our house for a week to take care of our puppy and kitty and she was perfect. We met Yvonne before we booked with her, a couple of months before our trip, and we were instantly comfortable with her. She has been great with communication, beginning with our initial introductions and now through a couple of sittings we've used her for. She always explains what her schedule is like, whether she'll have class or work, so there are no surprises. She worked with our cat and made sure to keep him on a schedule, given he takes a pill everyday. I would not hesitate to recommend Yvonne to watch your fur babies!”
“Emily was fantastic! She gave frequent, good and fun updates on our pups and seemed to enjoy getting to know them and taking great care of them. We would definitely book her again! Thanks so much, Emily!”
Third Ward pet parents share their Rover experiences
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Courtney was absolutely wonderful, and we loved working with her! Leaving our 140lb Great Dane and our sweet mixed breed pup in someone else’s care can be nerve-wracking, but we felt complete trust with Courtney from the start. She handled our very large dog with total confidence and ease, which gave us so much peace of mind. She followed all of our instructions perfectly and even took both dogs on their regular walks without hesitation. It was clear she genuinely enjoyed being around them and cared for them like her own. We are so grateful for her help and would happily use her services again in the future. Highly recommend Courtney to anyone looking for a trustworthy, capable, and caring sitter!
Courtney was the best sitter! I was in Charlotte (Airbnb) for my best friend's son's wedding with my family & two pups. She was completely undaunted by Chewy's partially collapsed trachea & Bear's torn ACL & nerve issues. If only she lived in my hometown, Jax, FL! Courtney, thanks for your unwavering patience in the months leading up to my booking. I was so anxiety-ridden over leaving them with a stranger, & you were awesome, letting me know about their meds, etc. I HIGHLY recommend you:) Leslie Kulik
Jen was awesome! She made it so easy to be away from our dog knowing she was still getting lots of love! Jen sent us pictures and updates daily and we could see our pup felt so comfortable with her! She left our house in great shape and treated like her own. We would love to have Jen back taking care of our Chocho!
This was the first time my husband and I have ever used a service like Rover, and Angela did a great job making us feel confident in our decision. Our dog is 10 years old and not used to people she doesn’t know. Angela was super sweet and attentive to our girl during our trip. She sent several photos, videos and check-ins throughout her stay. She took good care of our place and Mo was in good spirits when we came home. We’ve already booked Angela again. I would definitely recommend her!
Autumn did a great job! She sent lots of photos and kept the house clean! When we came home, the cats were calm and seemed like they didn’t miss us one bit, which led us to believe that Autumn kept them on a consistent and predictable schedule and they were very happy!
Alyssa stayed overnight with my dog Enzo, and overall it was a great experience! Enzo can be a bit particular, but he was very comfortable with her, which says a lot. She was reliable, easy to coordinate with, and very flexible when my schedule shifted last minute, something I really appreciated. I would absolutely book her again and feel confident recommending her to others.

We cannot recommend Shannon enough! She watched our two dogs for a week while we were on vacation and went completely above and beyond. She arrived at 5:00 AM to help us get to our flight on time, which was such a huge help. And so early!! Throughout the week, she sent daily updates with tons of photos and details about their walks, dog park trips, and potty breaks. It was clear she truly cared for them, she even made time for lots of cuddles, which they loved. We were able to fully unplug and relax knowing they were in such great hands. We’ll definitely be booking with Shannon again!
