“She was amazing. She definitely gave us comfort while away that Dexter was taken care of. She always provided updates and pictures. She even played with him which is a huge thing because Dexter doesn’t like new people. Thank you very much.”

About: I have always been the go-to person for many of my family and friends to go and feed the dogs or hang out with them. I grew up with dogs and always understood cues on when to give space or when they needed something! I adopted my dog almost two years ago and immediately started dog walking with her and later did basic training. At the moment, I work part-time from 1:00-6:30pm. My mornings are free during the week and I try to stay available for weekends. I am more likely to accept a new request with at least a week advanced notice, I will try to be flexible if that is not possible. In other pet owners home, I will make sure to follow any guided directions or precautions in order to ensure trust and safety in the home environment. In my home, I keep areas clean and free of anything harmful to dogs. I throw toys away that are damaged or could cause harm because of damage. I give lots of enrichment through feeding games, training inside and outside, and toys that allow her to use her brain! I make sure she eats well and drinks plenty of water while getting lots of outside time!
“I'm so glad Lindsey was able to hang out with my little miss again: she updated me when she was a little sick, and was kind enough to take care of it! Greatly appreciated and will book again.”

“Cannot say enough great things about Ericka. Trusted her completely from the start. She was so thorough with her pictures and check-ins. It was clear my pets loved spending time with her. Will definitely use her again!”

“Hollie was an incredible dog sitter as usual! She really goes above and beyond to interact with your dog and leaves extensive and precise reviews of her time spent with them along with photos. I really feel at ease and without anxiety knowing my dog is in great hands! Can’t wait to hire her again.”

“April was so professional and caring. She watched my two cats for me while I was away for four days. I felt so good about being away knowing they were in such good hands. I got videos and pics of the visits. Thank you April for your great work and kind heart.”

About: I have worked and volunteered at animal shelters so I know how to handle cats and dogs and tend to their needs. I have babysat dogs for my family, family friends and neighbors. I’ve gone to check in on their puppies. I am a full time student in school to be a Veterinarian. I have taken care of many different animals such as dogs, cats, ferrets, pigs, chickens, ducks, rabbits, sheep’s, goats and reptiles. I have my certification to give intramuscular, intravenous, and subcutaneous injections to fulfill your pets needs. I am a full time college student. I only go to school two days out of the week during the morning time. So I will be able to stay home the rest of the time to care for your babies. We wake up let the dogs outside, let them back in to eat and then go back outside sometimes we will play outside will the ball. Our older dogs like to stay inside.
“Allison was great! I booked her very last minute, and she still made time to come over to do a greet and meet. She’s clearly a dog lover, and our pups instantly fell in love with her. And very affordable rates! 10/10 would rebook in the future!”

“Ignacio did an amazing job! I have 6 pugs with very different personalities and they all loved him! He did a check in with them at my home while we were away and everything went great! He was attentive and paid close attention to detail. This was my first time using rover and I’m glad we got him to look over our beans. I will definitely be booking with him again”

“Jessica was AWESOME and came through for me on a short notice! She was punctual and sweet! Quick response and easy to communicate with! My pup was taken good care of and got the much needed exercise! Will continue to book with her!!!”


“Ximena was a big help and an awesome first time using rover experience. She did an excellent job taking care of my 4 cats with daily drop ins. Truly cares about your little fur animals and gave some great updates/photos during the week.”

“Vivian was great! She was so helpful and accommodating. Great communication and updates, we will definitely ask for her help again, and would recommend her to our family and friends.”

“I really appreciated the updates and how well he tended to my cat. I definitely will have him sit Miko again next time. His experience combined with the ease of communication gave me peace of mind that Miko was in good hands.”

About: As a dog owner and someone who has been around dogs for as long as I can remember, I truly believe they are our best companions who stand by us through thick and thin. Their unconditional love and unwavering support bring us immense joy and comfort. My schedule works perfectly for me, as I have a day job that allows me to be available in the afternoons and evenings to spend time with some furry friends. I treat them as if they are more than just pets, ensuring they feel truly special by showering them with extra love and attention. I focus on creating a joyful experience, making sure they enjoy both my company and the services I provide.
“Erin is AMAZING! She’s very reliable and all around a great pet sitter!! My cat Binx (who is sassy and cautious of other people) warmed up to her right away! My dog Romeo enjoyed their walks and couch cuddles! I will definitely have Erin watch Romeo&Binx again! :)”

“David was our sitter for our young golden retriever Teddy this summer. Sent pictures needs to work on communication one day he had a personal issue accrue which is Totally acceptable, life happens but it was 20 mins into the time we had agreed and I had to message him asking if everything was okay but over all was great with Teddy, Teddy seemed happy every time he arrived ! Would book again !”

“Wonderful Kristin is the best! We've used her many times and she's helpful and responsive. She'll keep you updated and is a very nice lady! Highly recommended”

I'd love the opportunity to hang out with your pet. Im not currently working as I am disabled but am looking for something to help me be more active. I'll have plenty of time to hang with your pet. Im available pretty much any time with some notice. I will care for your pet as if they were my own. I will respect your home and am big on following whatever directions you have for me for their care.
