“Madeline did pet sitting for our puppy for a long weekend. She is very responsive and sent pictures of our puppy regularly. She took our puppy out for walks and played with her. I will definitely book Madeline again.”

“Trina was awesome. On-time, very respectable, and my dog loved her immediately. I felt very assured my pet was in good care as she sent many photos of my dog throughout the booking. Will happily book with her again and would recommend to anyone looking for a sitter.”

“Amy is the best dog sitter we could have asked for. I pride myself on how much I take my dogs on adventures but Amy even surpassed what I do for my own dog! Amy took my dog on numerous wonderful adventures while sending me amazing pictures from their adventures. When Amy left she left a gorgeous hand drawn picture of our dog. I recommend Amy to anyone with a pet that they like and want to leave in good hands. 5 stars. A+ dog sitting! Will hire again!”

“Jennifer is incredibly kind and genuinely cares about animals. She is also very responsible and communicative. She sends regular updates with photos and videos throughout the day, so we feel connected even when we’re away. The house is always spotless when we return — she keeps everything very clean and tidy, way beyond what we expect. She’s reliable, professional, and truly a joy to work with. If you’re looking for a trustworthy pet sitter who treats your home and pets like her own, look no further. Jennifer is the best! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone.”

“Aurora was truly a gift having her dog-sit our precious girl Sadie. She was caring, responsive, gave many updates throughout the long weekend and made me feel at ease while I was away knowing that my dog was in good hands. Thank you Aurora. You are top on my list for future dog-sitting needs.”


About: I’ve been lucky to care for dogs, cats, and bunnies through every stage of life, from playful puppies and kittens to sweet senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’ve also pet sat for others for extended periods of time, including 4 to 6 weeks at a time, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets and home in someone else’s hands. I care for each pet like they’re part of my own family. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, likes, dislikes, and comfort level so they feel safe, loved, and understood while you’re away. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, all dog sizes, and pets who need medication or a little extra attention. Whether your pet is playful and energetic, shy and cautious, cuddly, independent, or in their senior years, I’ll meet them where they are with patience, kindness, and lots of love. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make your pet feel comfortable, cared for, and never alone. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my day. I’m happy to make time for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting based on your pet’s needs. I understand how important consistency is, so I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and companionship. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable and connected while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I know it can feel stressful to leave your pet in someone else’s care, so I do everything I can to make the experience as smooth and reassuring as possible for both you and your pet. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow your instructions closely and maintain their normal routine as much as possible. Whether that includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, litter box care, cuddle time, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure their needs are met with patience and attention. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, and keeping their routine familiar helps them feel secure while you’re away. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality and comfort level. Some pets love lots of interaction and play, while others prefer a calmer approach and need time to build trust. I’m happy to adapt my care to what makes your pet feel most comfortable and relaxed. Safety is extremely important to me. I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, harnesses, and home access, and I always double-check that pets are secure before entering or leaving the home. I also pay attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, or anything else that may be important, and I’ll communicate with you promptly if I notice any concerns. I’ll treat your home with the same respect and care that I would want someone to show my own. You can also expect regular updates and photos so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. My goal is for you to return to a happy, comfortable pet and have complete peace of mind knowing they were cared for with kindness, responsibility, and genuine affection.
“Susie is wonderful. Communicative, thorough, and thoughtful. Cared for our apartment as well as our pets. Cat got her twice daily oral medication and dog got pets and walks. Will book again if I can. Thanks Susie!”

“We are so grateful to have found Mai! She takes such great care of our dogs and home every time we’re away. Our dogs absolutely love her, and it gives us peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Mai follows all our instructions carefully, asks for clarification when needed, and keeps us updated throughout her stay. Plus, she always leaves the house spotless! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, responsible, and caring dog sitter.”

“Amazing pet sitter! I had a last minute trip and was scrambling to find a sitter. Lauren sent daily photos and took great care of my pets and my home. Will definitely contact again!”

About: Currently working from home full time! I own a 4 year old shihtzu terrier named Cooper. He’s a super friendly little guy who gets a long with basically any dog. On my free time I enjoy taking my dog to dog parks and interacting with other dog owners. I have experience handling all types of dogs and sizes. Seeing a dog's tail wag super fast is one of my joys! Aside from working and loving dogs, I do enjoy being a foodie and eating at the newest hot spots that open up. Let me know if there is anything else you need to know about me! Working from home full time so I can drop in to walk your dog during the day time if needed! Otherwise usually available weekends as well. I live in a apartment complex on the first floor so there is some room for your dog to roam around. There is also a dog park nearby.

Been going to the dog park interact w/different breeds of dogs to get used to each of there own quirks and personalities. I work full-time so I can take care of your dogs on the weekends. Some Holidays i should be free, just have to give me heads up. I am available on weekends after 11am I offer care and company for your dogs.

About: Hello! I’m Olivia. I’ve been around animals my whole life and grew up with family dogs starting when I was in kindergarten. In the summer 2023, I adopted my own cat, which made me appreciate even more how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your pets. I work part-time and am a college student, however I can always make time for lovely animals! Even with a busier schedule, I am still able to: * Overnight pet and house sit * Walk your dogs * Daily drop-in visits/check-ins * Keep up with feeding routines and fresh water * Litter box cleaning and basic cleanup * Give lots of attention, playtime, and companionship I am willing to discuss and bargain on prices, and we can discuss my availability further as well! Don’t be shy to message and let me know what you’re looking for. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, and I try to make them feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and needs patience, I’m happy to adapt to what they need. I also know how important communication is for pet parents, so I’m always happy to send updates and photos while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own!
“Highly recommend Sahil if you are looking for someone to treat your fur babies like theirs and take care of them just like you would. Sahil made sure that our fur babies are given all the love and care they needed while we were out. Sahil communicated regularly with us and was always available when needed. 5 stars from us. Will definitely be booking him again! !”

About: Hi, I'm Jacob! I'm a 22-year-old college student and former collegiate soccer player with a passion for dogs. I have two dogs of my own and helped raise and train my Bernedoodle from puppyhood, giving me plenty of hands-on experience with puppies and dogs of all ages. I also assist my girlfriend, an active Rover dog walker, on many of her walks and pet care visits. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, playtime, or extra attention, I'll treat them like they're my own and make sure they receive safe, reliable, and loving care. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. Between caring for my own dogs and assisting with Rover walks and visits, pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, or extra attention, I'm committed to making sure they get the care and exercise they need. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and have personally trained my Bernedoodle since puppyhood, giving me a strong understanding of dog behavior and routines. I follow all owner instructions carefully, provide plenty of exercise and attention, and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for whether in their home or on a walk.
“My cats warmed right up to Demi! It was a great peace of mind having her stay in my home with them so they wouldn't be bored or lonely with an empty house while I was away on a weekend trip. Demi was communicative and sent frequent updates and pictures, which I really appreciated. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Jenna was our first cat-sitter from Rover, and she was more than we could've hoped for! She stayed over with our two cats, sent great updates and pics, and the cats and our house were all very happy. Jenna even got our timid cat to warm up and sit on her lap, which speaks volumes about her great animal energy. We would definitely book Jenna again to sit for our boys. Thanks Jenna, and thanks Rover.com!!”

“Rose did an excellent job watching our two doodles. Both of them are a bit of a handful as one is a senior with incontinence issues (he needs regular outsides and diaper changes) while the other is younger and requests regular attention. Rose arrived on time, she made sure both dogs had regular breaks and she shared lots of pictures. We will definitely work with her again.”

“Dana Chloe is a truly dedicated sitter who we love and trust. We are grateful to have her in our lives, to share in the joy and great care of our pets. We are truly blessed!”

“Francis was a fantastic sitter, providing high-attention care of both our pets and our house while we were away. He took careful notes, tracked medications, proved highly flexible with unexpected changes, and even managed to make quick friends with our elusive cats. Francis is the first sitter to interview us during the meet-and-greet, rather than the other way around. From the moment we met, we knew that Francis was a different kind of sitter. Francis is a caretaker. We strongly recommend Francis for your pet and house sitting needs.”


“Katelyn was a wonderful sitter for our w golden retrievers. We have an older golden and a large 1 year old golden puppy who is a handful- and she managed them both beautifully. She sent regular updates and photos, and also left our house better than she found it.”

Our babies had a great time with Mariane! We were quite stress free on our vacation, knowing they were in good hands. Mariane also made sure that we came back to clean house! She took care of our little ones medications, food (including cooking a fresh batch of food for them) and walks. We will definitely be booking her in the future for all of our vacations.

We have booked Francis multiple times since last year to look after our 2 pets, 1 dog and 1 cat. Our cat needs daily medication for seizures and Francis is diligent about the schedule. Recently, our dog was diagnosed with diabetes and we were apprehensive about leaving her since she now needs insulin injections twice a day. Francis provided incredible care when our dog wasn’t feeling her best, and even spent time to show us some tips and tricks to manage her condition. We could not have asked for a better person to take care of our pets.

We loved the way Vanessa took care of our two dogs and also our house for the 10 days we were away. She kept us updated daily via text and sent us pictures of our happy dogs. She even alerted us that we were getting ants in the kitchen and did a great job getting rid of them. Thank you Vanessa, we appreciate you!
Alex was absolutely wonderful with our three animals (two dogs and a cat) and we couldn't recommend him more highly! He was attentive, communicative, and clearly a natural with pets. He went above and beyond in so many ways: he took our dogs on an extra walk after dinner, and when our senior dog got tired, he thoughtfully brought her home to rest while keeping our younger pup out to burn more energy. That kind of awareness and care for each animal's individual needs really stood out to us. He sent plenty of updates throughout the day which gave us total peace of mind, and when we got home the house was just as clean as we left it. All three animals loved him, which says everything. We'll definitely be booking Alex again!

Mila took great care of our dog while we were away for two weeks. She followed our instructions, asked good questions, answered our messages very quickly, and sent us the pictures of our dog every day! Mila loves animals and has plenty of experience dealing with them; she is responsible and reliable. Our dog loved Mila, and we hope that she would be able to stay with him again. We would highly recommend Mila to others!
Taylor did an amazing job caring for our 15-year-old dog, Jake. She was always on-time, responds quickly to messages, and kept us updated while we were away. Jake is slow to walk at his age, and Taylor was so patient and gentle with him every step of the way. We truly appreciate her kindness and reliability, and we would absolutely trust her with Jake again.
