“Really happy with how well the walks are going. Benjen is really happy!!”
“Katherine is great! She was so understanding and patient, and judging by the pictures she took, my dog loved walking with her. She was also great with communication!”
“Julie is reliable and very professional. She provided a good summary of her walk and how Hurley did. We would definitely recommend Julie and plan to reach out to her again.”
“Jessica is absolutely incredible! She provided outstanding care and service for my high-energy dog, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the start, she was professional, reliable, and clearly experienced with handling energetic pups. My dog took to her right away, and every walk left him happy and well-exercised (which is no easy task!).”
“Lucy does a great job!! She’s taken my dog for multiple walks. Always sends the cutest photos! Does a great job with communication and always remembers to lock up when she leaves. Highly recommend!”

About: I HAVE ALWAYS HAD PETS; CURRENTLY I HAVE 3 RESCUE CATS. FURTHER, FOR LAST 4 YEARS, I HAVE DONE MANY IN-HOME SITS FOR DOGS, CATS AND CHICKENS OF DIFFERING AGES AND SIZES. WITH IN-HOME SITS, I WILL USUALLY STAY TIL MID-MORNING THEN HANG AT MY HOUSE OR ERRANDS FOR A FEW HOURS. I THEN WILL RETURN IN AFTERNOON, DEPENDING ON PETS' NEEDS, AND THEN RETURN EARLY EVE FOR ALL NIGHT. FOR IN-HOME AND DROP INS I AM VERY FLEXIBLE IN SCHEDULING. I WILL TAKE GREAT CARE OF YOUR PETS; I KNOW HOW PRECIOUS THEY ARE. MY 3 CATS RULE AND EACH HAS A UNIQUE PERSONALITY. YOUR PET WILL, OF COURSE, MISS YOU BUT I WILL MAKE TRANSITION EASIER BY GIVING LOTS OF LOVE AND ATTENTION. I WILL BRING IN MAIL, TOO.
“Jordan was great. She was also EXTREMELY accommodating. My other dog walker fell through, so it was very last minute. But she was able to help me out. I will definitely use her again.”
“Joni is amazing! My dog has a lot of energy and Joni walks her daily. Joni is fantastic at communicating throughout the day and always makes an effort to ensure that both my dog and I are more than happy with how things are going.”
About: Howdy! I have been a dog and cat lover since I was a wee tot. I grew up with four labradors on a farm. Then I ended up caring for two stray cats. And now I am a proud owner of a pug, frenchie, and a rag doll cat (they live elsewhere at the moment). I love going for walks and ensuring my pets get adequate physical activity. I also take pride in how many commands my pups can follow. I have dog sat for many of my friends and neighbors (big and small dogs) and would love to care for any cats needing somewhere to stay. Additionally, I am very comfortable bathing and/or grooming pets. Currently I home visiting family, so I have a very flexible schedule. Your pets will get the same love and attention they did during the pandemic period when you worked at home. Typically I like to socialize with the pets as much as possible and go for long walks. But I will follow the rules you set for your pets (ex: no dogs on the furniture if that’s your home rule). I have a small fenced in backyard, but I live near a decent sized park where we will walk.
About: I’ve been surrounded by pets growing up, and we have always had cats. I am proud to say I helped train my latest family puppy all the tricks she knows! I work part time but only on Friday and Saturday nights. I only do pickup shifts. I’m out of school so my schedule is fairly open. I live 2 minutes away from a park, making a great spot for dogs and outside cats. My house is one floor, so it is easy to get in and out.
“Jeff did a great job walking our dog and provided ample updates—He also gave our cat some treats and provided a picture update of her as well! We will use Jeff again”
“Amanda was great! We needed her to walk our dog while we were gone all day to visit family out of town on Christmas Day. We were first time Rover users and a little nervous, but Amanda graciously allowed us to do a “meet and greet” a few days before so Snickers was familiar with her. We only needed her to walk her so she could potty, but Amanda went above and beyond and stayed with her the whole 30 minutes she was booked with us. Amazing! And on Christmas Day too. 😊”
“Chay did a great job and even took my request on short notice. Was very responsive to messaging to get things set up. Would absolutely work with her again!”
“Angelee is amazing. I would fully recommend. Very reliable and it’s obvious she loves her animals.”
“Ashleigh is great with pippa. She’s always on time, responsive, and takes great care of my dog!”
“Mackenzie is punctual and so great with Belle. Belle likes to bark at squirrels, but Mackenzie is very calm and gets Belle to keep walking. A feat for a Black/Tan. Will definitly use her again.”
“Trevor is great! He was so good with my energetic 1yo Labrador. They bonded on 2mi walks and she was happy and tired when I got home. He is flexible, reliable, and conscientious. Highly recommend.”
“Duchess had a great time walking with Jubilee. Jubilee stepped in and saved a friend of mine who was experiencing post surgical difficulty with professionalism and poise. Coordinating this from many states away proved entirely possible because of Jubilee's response and attention to detail as we navigated this tumultuous time. Couldn't be more grateful or satisfied with Jubilee or Roverdotcom. Without these two amazing two partners, I don't know what we'd have done.”
About: I am a dog lover! My 4 year old golden is my heart and I would love to help others out with their fur family. Caring for animals is a passion and enjoyable for me I work from home for my full time job and my schedule is incredibly flexible so could do those mid day walks that are tough to swing. Pets are family, so it’s important to treat them and provide top notch service! I treat any pet I care for as I would want my own dog treated

Tracy C.
“It is my pleasure to recommend Tracy for pet sitting. Tracy recently did pet sitting for my 2 cats. Her passion and love for animals was evident immediately. Pets know who they can trust and who will care for them in a loving and 'family' way. Tracy Kept me updated by sending frequent texts and pictures of my cats which was comforting. Finally, Tracy is confident, independent and trustworthy. Me and my cats would have Tracy to petsit for us again.”

Brittany C.
“I’ve known Brittany since 2022, and she is truly wonderful. We used to work for the same pet-sitting company, where she was loved by many for her dedication and passion for animals. I know many pet sitters, but Brittany is the only one I would ever trust to care for my dog. She has a huge heart, and I haven’t met an animal that doesn’t love her! I would recommend Brittany to anyone and everyone in need of pet-sitting services. PS: Nacho, her pup, is truly a reflection of her—he’s the kindest, most loving dog I’ve ever met.”
University Of Kentucky dog parents share their Rover experiences
Joni is amazing! She took great care of my dog throughout the summer. My dog is definitely not the easiest dog to handle and Joni was such a trooper. Joni was always very communicative and attentive and I can’t recommend her enough.
Katherine is great! She was so understanding and patient, and judging by the pictures she took, my dog loved walking with her. She was also great with communication!
Amanda is fantastic; I am so cautious on who to trust with my pup and she does such a great job with him. Highly recommend using Amanda for overnight sitting and dogwalking
Bailey was very accommodating, especially when it came to a last-minute request. We would trust her again to take care of Leo, our dog. She is easy to work with.
Kimberlee did a great job with Teddy. He was very happy to see her. She sent pictures and ensured us he was taken care of. Would definitely hire her again.
We had a pet sitting emergency and needed someone to come by three times in one day. Joy was great with our pups. I was happy to see that her own dog, Copper, is an Australian Cattle Dog, so she understands demanding herding breeds like ours. Our guys were really well cared for and we returned home to find everything in order. Joy is easy to communicate with. She came to meet them in advance and was receptive to what we wanted. We would highly recommend her!!!
Lexee was so kind and patient with my nervous dog! While my dog was a little unsure of having someone new in the house, by the end he was feeling so much more comfortable. Lexee was very quick to respond to messages/requests, which was helpful because it is my first time using Rover. I definitely recommend Lexee as someone you can trust to help with your dog!
Kaylee was great. She helped us with a last minute walk. She is a great communicator and kept us always updated. Our dog had a good walk with her. We will be booking with Kaylee again! Would recommend.
Hayden was absolutely wonderful with my dog. She took her for a nice long walk and my dog had such a good time! Definitely recommend her!
Love Lauren and so sad she’s leaving Lex! She was punctual, consistent, communicative, and my dog loves her. Thank you Lauren!
Elli is AWESOME she’s saved me from my own absent mindedness several times and the pups love her! Highly recommend!
Jessica did great with Koconut! She was good at communicating and taking pictures! Koconut looked very happy on her walks!
Have had Ariel walk Roxy multiple times now.... She takes marvelous care of my dog and my cat. I would highly recommend her.
We have had Madeleine either stay or walk our dog multiple times and our dog loves her! Always recommend!
Thank you so much meredith! i was in desperate need and you were able to help with such little notice. rosco says thank you too:)
I had a wonderful experience with Haley. My dogs really loved her and she made sure to tend to them both with care and as if they were her own fur sons. I will definitely book with her again when she’s available.
So thankful for Carrera! She walked my dog in my neighborhood and let him have all the sniffs. He came home happy and took a nap right away... which meant he was tired and content. Thank you, Carrera!
