“Alyssa is awesome! I'm so glad we found her. She came to walk our dog, Blue, while we were at work and then she took care of him while we were out of town. She did a great job and was super pleasant and easy to work with.”
“Noel was absolutely amazing, she helped me so much with the extra requests I had and stayed till it was all done, very receptive and kind and I’d totally recommend booking with her!”
“I absolutely would recommend Taylor! She was very nice and respectful of my home, and did a superb job taking care of my pups. Her hours were flexible and she was able to accommodate my needs - even though they were last minute. She’s good with animals and I would certainly trust her to watch them again in the future!”
“Our three pets have three different personalities. Wendy was able to accommodate each of their needs. She has a calm presence and our pets seemed to enjoy their time with her. We look forward to asking her to pet-sit again in the future.”
“Elisha was great with our 2 dogs, both high maintenance. She came over for a meet and greet, asked good questions to made sure she understood their needs. During the 3 pet visits, she kept us up to date and send pics and videos. This first pet sitting day was on short notice so we could attend a funeral. She was great, we’ll use Elisha again.”
“Jenna and Jason did a wonderful job caring for my sweet dog. They were on time, very kind, and asked all the right questions. My dog can be kind of skiddish, but they made her feel very comfortable. I will absolutely be asking them again to watch our sweet pup.”
“Sydney is an amazing pet sitter. My bird doesn’t like many women but came to sit on her shoulder right away. She was able to come check on Ricky kind of last minute New Year’s week and I’m so glad she was available.”
“Robin accomplished the impossible and walked my anxious rescue and his buddy. I’m so appreciative for her patience and willingness to do a trial run with my dogs. She is very caring and really wants to take the best care of your pets. Robin took extra time to get to know their needs and made sure everyone felt comfortable. Super impressed!”
About: Hi, I’m Rosie! I’m an experienced animal caregiver and I am very passionate about providing safe, loving care for every pet. I’ve known since I was little that I wanted to work with animals, and this opportunity allows me to continue building that path while I’m in college. Through my previous job, I gained hands on experience and a strong understanding that animal welfare always comes first. I’m committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! Since I’m currently taking college courses I am usually online finishing assignments but since I am online I make sure to keep my schedule flexible so I can provide reliable, attentive care for your pet. I’m always happy to communicate and find times that work best for you! Safety and trust are my top priorities during walks and drop-ins. I always ensure collars, harnesses, and leashes are secure before walks and stay aware of our surroundings to keep your dog safe and comfortable. As for drop-ins, I carefully follow your pet’s routine for potty breaks (or ensuring a clean litter box!), feeding, fresh water, and playtime. I double check that doors and gates are secure before leaving and treat your home with respect. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands!
“Kay is fantastic. We had a long gap between needing dog sitting and when she came over to pick up a new key, my dogs FREAKED out. They aren't even that happy to see me after a long trip. She plays with my Shepherd mix at every visit and the pictures she sends are fantastic. She was even nice enough to bring in packages and water our plants. We love Kay and she's the only one I trust with my pets!”
“Alyssa was a wonderful pet sitter while I was unexpectedly traveling. My pup loved her and she went above and beyond with the photos/communication. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to work with for my first time using Rover. Thank you Alyssa!”
“Cassandra was great with our two boys! They felt very comfortable with her from the start. She sent lots of updates and photos and we came home to two happy dogs. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Kim was absolutely amazing! Beyond words but I'll try! This was our first time using Rover as we typically have friends in town that can help out with our cats, but they were also gone this week. Now I don't think I'll ever go back to having friends pet sit as long as Kim's available! My cats absolutely adored her, even the one that I've never seen come out for strangers or even friends had so much fun with her! It was so amazing knowing my girls were so well fed, played with and loved on while we were away! Thank you so much Kim!”
“Taylor went above and beyond to make sure Jax was comfortable and taken care of. We recently moved so he’s been very suspicious of strangers, but he loved her instantly. We will definitely be repeat clients”
“OMG.... I can not find enough words to say about Amanda. She loves our kitties as if they were her own. One of our cats requires insulin 2 times a day and Amanda makes sure she is there on time to ensure she receives her medication on time every time. Amanda also sends regular updates and notifies us if there are any issues. We love her!!!”
“Christina was very professional in all of her interactions with us. She was able to take care of our difficult pet without any extra instruction. She provided regular updates and pictures. While our pet didn’t warm to her as quickly as we’d hoped, we would definitely book her again, she was an absolute delight.”
“We’ve booked with Sidney multiple times and she consistently has the best communication and takes such great care of our pups. She is reliable and it’s such a huge relief to know that we will come home to happy, healthy pups after her diligent care.”
“Krystal was an incredible pet sitter while I was out of town. She was thorough and communicative, she went above and beyond in caring for our pet family, she sent highly detailed updates and tons of wonderful photos. Highly recommended—especially for anyone anxious about leaving a pet at home.”

Elisha has been so great to work with! She has visited my two cats on two different occasions and always does an amazing job. She sends photos and makes sure our cats are well cared for. I trust Elisha and love being able to rely on her to do an amazing job while we are gone!
Marina was my first pet sitter, and left me feeling at ease. She took tons of pictures of my cat while I was gone, left my place in the same condition, wrote detailed notes about how my cat was doing, and even brought in a package that was delivered while I was out. I’ll be rebooking with her next time I take a trip.
Cameo is the best! She took excellent care of my dog and cat during drop in visits. She followed all instructions, and sent lots of pictures. My pets were happy and healthy when I came home, and they loved interacting with her. I completely trust her with my pets and would absolutely book her again. She’s great!
Jenny really spent time with my cat! I have had other cat sitters (from Rover) who spent 5 or 10 minutes, but Jenny spent 25-30 minutes to give my cat some play time and lots of love. I have a camera on my front door so I know how long the sitter stays. Jenny sent regular updates and was easy to work with.
Laura checked on our cat while we were away during the holidays. Laura is very responsive to all communication. She provided daily updates with pictures (even though our cat is super shy). It was great knowing that someone was checking on him every day. Laura, thank you so much for taking care of Fez!
