“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!).”
“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.”
“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!”
“Haley really did me a solid when she let me know that Ryleigh wasn't feeling good. She took the time to find her meds and give them to her. Truly appreciated that.”
About: I’ve been taking care of peoples pets and my own since 17 yrs old. I work hard to make sure all their needs are met. My own dog is a senior with additional special needs, and I have had other pets like lizards, cats, and hamsters. All the people I love in my life have pets, so it’s not surprising I grew up to love and want to care for them as well. I am a full time student, but I study from home majority of the day. I am super flexible, and I ensure communication when there is a stricter day in my schedule. I respond in a timely fashion. I usually am more available on weekdays but I can take on weekends as well depending on what my week looks like. Boarding: With your suggestions for your pet, I can crate them or let them roam free during boarding. They will already have their own food and water bowl. Please bring food/treats and comfort supplies for them as they will miss you. I am able to take them on walks twice a day and potty/pee brakes 4x a day. House sitting: I will make sure to follow your instructions and keep everything organized for you and your fur baby :)
“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. 😊”
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.
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.
“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.”
“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”
About: I have experience caring for pets of all ages and sizes. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have dog-sat for many years. I bring patience, love, and reliability to every visit. Whether your dog is big or small, shy or social, I adapt to their unique personality and needs. I genuinely love helping out in any way I can, whether it’s a long walk, feeding time, or a quick potty break. I treat every pet like family, and I’m here to make your life easier! I’m a college student with a set class schedule, but I’m available outside of those hours to help care for your pup. I’m reliable, communicative, and always do my best to respond quickly. I closely follow any specific routines, feeding instructions, or medical needs you provide, and I always keep a watchful eye to make sure your pet stays happy and healthy.
“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.”
“Taylor is so sweet and thorough! She will absolutely be my go to dog walker here going forward. I do not trust very many people with my dogs but I absolutely trust Taylor! Highly recommend.”
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
“Madison took extra time with our dog to make her comfortable. She's very reliable, communicative and overall great with our doggos! I highly recommend her.”

Tracy C.
“Tracy watched our 11 year old pitbull and 10 year old German pinscher mix for two nights. She came in early so we were able to spend some time getting to know her. Tracy is very accepting, kind, and easy going. She put us at ease right away. Our girls can be temperamental with their walks, and she accommodated them by taking only one when the other didn’t want to go. Then, she went back out with both when the other girl wanted to go! Tracy sent pictures and kept us informed. The apartment was very clean when we returned and the girls were tired! Tracy is wonderful with dogs, any animal I’m sure. You can travel with peace of mind knowing your furbabies and home are being well cared for!”
Jasmine H.
“Jasmine always watched my family’s dogs while we were growing up! It was no easy task as we had four dogs and one with medical issues. She always was attentive to the dog that needed medication and spent time playing with the dogs when we were out of town to make sure they got exercise! I could not recommend Jasmine enough.”

“Chay is wonderful! Appreciate the updates and great pictures when she spends time with my dog Pearl 😊 Means a lot when you have long days at work away from your pup!”

University Of Kentucky dog parents share their Rover experiences
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!
