“I was devastated at the thought of leaving my dog while going on a trip to Europe (I rarely travel for this reason). I found Corinne on Rover and she immediately put me at ease that my dog would be well taken care of while I was away. Corinne was outstanding at communicating with me before, during, and after my trip and I could not have been happier with how she sent me pictures and updates every day! Corinne exceeded all expectations in the care she took of my doodle with thoughtfulness, proactive actions when she noticed he could get into trouble when getting into areas he should not be in, playing with him, giving him treats, and asking great questions if she had any concerns! She is smart, organized, thorough, and proactive with everything she does. I didn't think it was possible to not worry while I was away, but Corinne managed to put me at ease which was not easy to do. I am very overprotective of my pup and I owe so much to Corinne for dealing with all my notes, directions, and separation anxiety, hahaha. I highly, highly recommend Corinne, she was outstanding and will use her again a million percent when ever needed. I may even think about travelling more because of her! Thank you again Corinne, we really appreciate you!”


“Thank you so much for taking such great care of the girls, Hayley! Hayley is wonderful to work with- She is communicative, responsible, and timely. There is no greater responsibility/level of trust to bring someone in our homes to take care of our fur children. I typically have a family member come over, though she was attending the same event and so this was not an option. I am so happy and grateful to have been connected with Hayley. I’d highly recommend her.”


“Shannon is an amazing cat sitter, highly recommend. She asked very thorough and thoughtful questions about our two cats' care needs ahead of our leave, has been very communicative, accommodating and punctual during visits. Shannon is also a great kitty photographer to boot. Will definitely be contacting to re-book for future needs!”


“Candice was terrific with both of our dogs — they have opposite personalities and they clearly both warmed up to her quickly. She was communicative, reliable, capable and loving, and we won’t hesitate to use her again!”


About: I've taken care of animals for most of my life; I've been a pet sitter multiple times, caring for animals of various ages and health statuses. I am able to administer medications comfortably, and will be happy to do so if needed! I have two dogs and a cat of my own, so I am quite used to the flow of pet care. I'm used to long walks, making breakfast and dinner, giving supplements, and the like. I try to make my clients pets as comfortable as possible, which is why I offer overnight stays at the clients house. I can crate dogs if necessary, among other things.

“While on vacation our young pup wouldn’t stop crying when she was left alone in our beach rental. Lauren was able to help watch her the very next morning. So responsive! So sweet! So punctual! I can’t say enough good things about Lauren!”


“First time using Rover and it was a great experience. Lindsey was wonderful. She took great care of my two guinea pigs, Sam and Dean while I was on vacation. She set up a meet and greet beforehand and I instantly felt at ease with her. She came to my home everyday for a week to make sure they had everything they needed - fresh water, hay, food, and veggies. She cleaned up and switched out their bedding when needed. She updated me throughout the week and also included pictures. It’s hard to leave pets behind when you go away so I really appreciated that. I highly recommend Lindsey for your pet care needs. :)”


“Adrian dropped in for visits with our cat, Rusty, for one week. Rusty is a very fearful cat but seemed to feel comfortable to come for his meals with Adrian there. We loved receiving all the photos of our little guy and notes about how the visits had gone. Thanks for a good experience.”


About: I have four dogs that are the light of my life. I also have several years experience caring and sitting for others pets as well. Cat person turned dog lover, though I still have the heart for all pets. I am currently in a remote graduate program, and looking to fill the extra time I have with helping others and caring for others pets. I am very respectful of the home of others and the individual needs and routines of their pets. I cannot board animals in my own home as we are at full capacity with our own dogs, but I am extremely flexible with others set ups.

“Sara is wonderful! She checked on our three cats while we were away for a long weekend, and as soon as I met her in our meet and greet I knew I could trust and count on her to take care of our kitties. She sent lots of pics, filled food and water, and cleaned the litter boxes. I will definitely be booking her next time we go out of town!”

“Milagros was wonderful with my Lab! She sent photos and a video of him and he looked so happy! I knew he was comfortable and in good hands! My fur baby was recently diagnosed with diabetes and needs insulin so I was very nervous leaving him for the first time. Milagros put my mind at ease for sure. After reading her bio and meeting her I knew she was exactly the type of person that I would feel comfortable leaving my Leo with. Thank you again!!”

Amanda S.
“We are so grateful to have found Amanda to care for our senior pug, who is hard of hearing and has very limited eyesight. From the moment she met him, it was clear she had a natural gift for working with animals, especially those with special needs. Amanda is incredibly patient, gentle, and loving. She takes the time to connect with our pug in ways that make him feel safe and understood, always moving at his pace and making sure he’s comfortable. Her calm and caring presence brings him so much peace, and it’s clear he trusts her completely. She is also wonderfully responsible and reliable. Whether it’s taking him on slow walks, helping him navigate around the house, or simply sitting with him and giving him the affection he loves, Amanda is consistently thoughtful and attentive. It’s hard to put into words how much we appreciate the care Amanda gives our pug. Knowing he is in such capable and loving hands brings us so much comfort. She truly treats him like one of her own.”


Flower R.
“Flower is an amazing person with a big heart, (especially when it comes to pets/animals) and an amazing pet lover, whenever I/we go away for a long period of time we take our cat to her. She alone has a cat and fostered a cat from someone who couldn't take care of it. When she was staying at a friend's who's indoor outdoor cat had baby's outside, she took them in, got the mother to take care of the baby's and took care of the baby's (checked their weight, help one that was constipated, help train them to use the litter boxe etc.) till they were old enough to go to their forever home”
