“Taylor and Andrew gave us such peace of mind leaving our elderly vizsla, River, for 4 nights. Not only are they the most caring people, but they welcomed River like she was one of their own, sent pic and video updates, gave her daily meds, and even introduced her to her new favorite toy. We will definitely ask for another doggie staycation in the future.”

“Kept my dog over Christmas and New Years (12 days) and did such a wonder job. They even worked with me to add 2 nights when i was having issues with flight. I got multiple pictures each day and they are very responsive when I text. I would recommend them to anyone. My dog always comes back happy.”

“Rippley and Biscuit loved Kaitlin and Verle! I was so happy to see how relaxed my reactive and senior puppers were at a new location. The pictures they sent me of the dogs in full potato mode assured me that they felt right at home.”

“I needed a sitter at the last minute at Ashley did an amazing job of communicating and being flexible and understanding when plans changed or issues arose that needed to to be addressed. She made me feel comfortable and always prioritized my pet's health and safety. I'm so thrilled I found her and will definitely be a return customer the nex time I'm in need of petcare. Do not hesitate to request her services!”

“Our first time boarding our dog and using Rover and great experience with both. Madison and Moses were wonderful to work with - quick to reply and patient in answering all our questions. The regular updates and pictures were reassuring. We got him back in good health and spirits. Bonus, he has been more chill interacting with his neighborhood crew of prupet pals. We plan to use again!”

“Cerita is my go to dog and cat sitter. She treats all of my fur babies with so much love and makes them feel completely at home. I especially appreciate the extra care she gives my senior cat, she’s very attentive when it comes to giving him his insulin.”

“Super grateful for Jasmine! She took a last minute booking for our dog over the holiday weekend so we could visit family. Communication was great, and our dog came home happy and well cared for. Will definitely use them again in the future.”

“We just love having Dustin and his family take care of our Boston terrier when we go out of town. They are very conscientious and communicate clearly which makes it much easier to go on vacations. They keep us from missing Bosco too much by sending notes and pictures 1-2 times a day. They obviously love dogs and it shows.”

“So kind to our pups and made it so easy to coordinate. Super fast response times and sent lots of pics while the pups were with them. They even sent them home with cute bandanas that we will cherish always. Amazing care takers!”

“this was my first time using Rover since we needed a dog sitter last minute. we’re so lucky to have found pilar. our 5yo mini schnauzer is a punk with new people but she gave him the space he needed until he warmed up. she was great with daily pics and updates for his 3 night stay. will definitely bring him back when we need a sitter!”

“I felt very comfortable leaving my two dogs with Cristina. And I know, because the pics and videos, that my dogs had a great time and enjoyed their stay! Thank you Cristina for watching them like they are yours.”

“We're so grateful to have found Linda to care for our Bodhi. She's so loving and sweet with him, and we know that his every need is being tended to. We love the photos and updates that she sends, and the fact that he cries when it's time to go home shows us that he loves her right back!”


“Whitney was awesome when she looked after my puppy. Got a daily update and the pickup/drop-off was such a time saver. My dog is old and can be picky about her sitters but she came back obviously happy. Thanks :)”


“Nate, Ray, and their fur babies were awesome! We have since moved from Florida, but if I was local, we would love to book again! Thank you for your great babysitting of my puppy!”

“Overall, we had a good experience. They were able to accommodate our dog on very short notice, which we really appreciated. Erlinda was quick to respond, her daughter was easy to work with, and our dog was well taken care of. We’re grateful they were able to help us out last minute and would consider using them again.”

“This was our first time using Rover. We are very impressed and happy with May and Marc watching our two little fur babies. May sent us pictures and videos everyday. I don’t know how they do it but they managed to get our two babies to sit for amazing pictures. We were very surprised and appreciated that May and Marc bathed our babies when we came to pick them up. We highly recommend May and Marc and will continue to book with them in the future.”

“Kaitlyn was awesome. So flexible, and she had great communication. I also messed up on something and she was super understanding. Will definitely rebook with her on our next trip.”


“We were fortunate to have Trinity come to our house each morning for almost 3 weeks to care for our two cats. It was best to keep the cats at home and comfortable in their routines rather than traveling to a facility. Trinity checked in each morning and sent pics to me from each visit and that helped put me at ease. All went well and when we travel again, I wouldn’t hesitate to contact River and ask for Trinity again. Thanks Trinity!”


About: Hello! My name is Angelina and I’ve had cats my whole life! I’ve definitely seen it all from having to give insulin shots to inhalers to mood shifts from family members leaving to the service. So I’d love to say I’m well versed in the craziness of cats. I’m big on love and snacks along with if your baby needs any medications while she’s here. You can count on me! Best, Angelina Darling
“We first met Mariela last year but ended up changing our plans when our cat got sick. Now, a year later, he is doing great and we need to head out of town. I reached back out and she remembered us! Because our cat needs an insulin shot twice daily, she came over to learn how to give the shot and then came another day to practice giving the shot. Mariela communicates well and always let us know when she was on her way. She did great and we headed out of town. She always checked in on time and sent us 4-5 pictures from every visit. I can’t express enough how much we all enjoyed the photos of our cat! She gave clear written reports from each visit. We already booked for this Saturday and will be booking another time soon. We highly recommend Mariela!”


“Jordan was amazing! Our cat was clearly very well attended to, and it showed. Never before have we gone on a trip and NOT been violently accosted upon entering our home. Ginger is usually not satisfied until she has drawn my blood, and she is instead purring and headbutting me lovingly. Only affection from this fuzzy demon, which means she was well looked after.”


About: While I don’t have professional cat sitting experience, I’ve lived with cats and have hands on experience caring for them. I’m comfortable feeding cats, keeping their litter boxes clean, playing with them, and making sure they have a safe, comfortable environment. I’m patient, gentle, and happy to give cats the attention and care they need.

“Loren was able to make time to quickly pass by and make sure my cats can survive my absence for a week. Unfortunately I was cancelled on by a different sitter and Loren saved the day! Thank you.”


About: Although I've never had the pleasure of owning my own cat, pretty much everyone else that I know has (which is great for me). I've spent the past couple years cat sitting for friends and enjoyed every second of it. I've grown used to playful nips and scratches just as I've learned about cat personalities. Some cats need to be by you at all times, while others don't even care that you're there - both just as fun to visit! I like adapting to each cat as I get to know them and figuring out their favorite scratching spots, their preferences on if I should pretend I'm not there, and how silly they sound when they get super vocal. I'm big on communication and will quickly and openly work with you to ensure your cat has a puuurrfect experience (sorry). Feel free to reach out with questions or concerns!
About: Hi my name is Ash! I currently don’t have a job so I’m available for all services at any time. I’ve been around different types of dogs my entire life. I love to keep dogs entertained and happy by playing with them, walking with them, letting them run around the house, feeding them yummy treats and food, and give lots of cuddles! I’m very good at keeping an eye on dogs when they are wearing a cone or if they are sick. I have experience on giving antibiotics to dogs. I usually let dogs out to go pee every 2-3 hours. I love all animals and am so excited to take care of your dog! I have an apartment but I live close to plenty of dog parks! My schedule is open I don’t work at a physical place right now so I have more than enough time to care for my dogs and yours! I have a nice spacious apartment your dog can run around in and I will always keep an eye on what they are doing. I always make sure there isn’t anything they could get into that would hurt them. Any mess that is made will also always be cleaned up.

“Maureen is an exceptional cat whisperer! She demonstrated an impressive attention to detail in caring for my beloved feline friend. Throughout my trip, I was delighted to receive numerous photos of them enjoying their time together, which truly put my mind at ease. Thanks to her, I could fully concentrate on my activities without a moment of worry.”


“Shelby and Dalton took care of our 2 very shy, very aloof semi-feral cats. They followed the routine we had set up for them, and provided daily feedback and pictures! We would not hesitate to recommend them to others, or to have them back to cat-sit again.”


About: As a former veterinary assistant with five years of experience, I’ve cared for cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I’m comfortable recognizing signs of stress or illness, administering basic care, and making sure every cat feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or needs a little extra attention, I’ll provide reliable, compassionate care and treat them like one of my own.

“Alexis responded very quickly to messages and was very flexible. She went above and beyond to check our cat's automatic feeder. Both of the cats were having a great time in the photos she sent. Would highly recommend!”

“Brianna was able to come on short notice to help with my pets. I loved how quickly she communicated her time schedules so we could coordinate the times. As well she picked up my plants that my cats knocked over. My house smelled and looked nice I will definitely book her again this time for a full stay.”

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats in the home forever. I love taking care and giving them love. I can’t wait to take care of your animals and provide them with the best care without you needing to worry about anything. I also worked at a doggy daycare for a short while which helped me gain experience in dog care. Taking care of 60 dogs at once really whips you in to shape. I can’t wait to help you and your pets be as happy as possible. I have such a unique love for animals. This would be the best experience for me and you so let me come into your home and meet your pets! I work part time and am in school from home right now so I have lots of free time to give your pets all the attention they need! I do not take dogs into my own home but I would love to stay in your home or help out at your house for your pets needs.

About: Hi! I'm new to the Rover app, but I'm not new to caring for animals. I've always had a natural connection with animals and they seem to gravitate toward me wherever I go. I’m a stay at home mom of a 3 and 5 year old so I am always home and always active and my fiance is home while I run errands. We have a decent size fenced yard where your animal can get some energy out while staying safe. I truly believe animals are family, and I care for every pet as if they were my own child. I'm highly communicative, reliable, and genuinely empathetic. I pay close attention to each pet's unique personality and needs, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, or just having a calm companion, I'll make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. That's why I'll keep you updated with plenty of photos, videos, and messages throughout each visit, so you always know how your pet is doing and can enjoy those special moments even while you're apart. If you're a busy family looking for a dependable dog walker or pet sitter who will treat your pet with patience, kindness, and lots of love, I'd be honored to help. I can't wait to meet you and your best friend! I am a mom of two girls. I have a flexible schedule and I’m willing to do whatever’s necessary to make sure your pet is taken care of. I’m a hair stylist on weekends and I love when people bring their dogs to their appointments. Rover is great way for me to play with animals, get some exercise, and make some extra income. Just message me 😊 I make sure the dog goes outside to use the bathroom . Make sure the food and water bowl is always fresh and full. Engage and play with your pet. Chill, lay down, and watch tv together. I absolutely love playing tug of war with dogs so make sure to pack that toy in their overnight bag LOL. If I were to come to your house I would let you know exactly when I enter and when I leave and give you updates on your pet .
“I’m Very Happy with Ben & Luke they are awsome sitters 💙My LEXI gets excited knowing she’s going with her friends 🙌🏼once Lexi is with them they send Very cute 🥰 pictures of her and she looks super happy !!! I HIGHLY Recommend them!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼”

About: I grew up on a farm with many animals. We have raised our girls with many pets including: chickens, bunnies, several foster and adopted dogs, and rescuing cats that would have been euthanized to live on our farm. We have 1 acre of fully fenced yard in a cozy community. We recently had to put down our sweet pit bull and are looking to opening up our homes to care for others pets at this time. We have a lot of love to give and would appreciate your consideration. I work from home so I am available all day and night excluding of course picking up kids and family activities. We have 4 daughters, 2 of which have graduated high school and in college, 1 going into high school and a 9 year old. They have all had extensive experience with many animals and been involved with agriculture in their middle and high schools. We presently have 2 cats (one of which is fully outdoor and one that comes in at night to sleep). We understand that many individuals have cats that are fully indoor and we have ample space, beds and furniture for your cat to feel comfortable. We are also BIG dog people and missing our sweet pit bull. We have a great neighborhood for taking walks, a 1 acre fully fenced yard for running and playing in. We will keep all cats indoors at all times. We will have any animals that stay with us in our home at night and have dogs go out frequently to play.
“My little man Brady absolutely loved his time with Lucy and Stella. Huge thanks to Taylor and Andrew I can’t say enough good things! Being able to be absent without the stress of his well being is priceless. This was our first time using Rover and couldn’t be happier. We will absolutely be back sooner than later!”

I’m currently not working at the moment so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m mostly available all days certain Saturdays and Sundays after 3:00 pm I have a fenced yard with 3 friendly dogs I take on walks they can keep your fur baby company.

About: I've had a lifelong passion for working with dogs and cats, and I've spent the past eight years dedicated to the pet industry. Over the years, I've cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from puppies to seniors. Whether it's feeding, potty walks, playtime, or grooming, I have extensive experience and a deep love for caring for furry friends. I’m excited to share my expertise with your pet!

About: I have been a dog and cat owner for over 20 years. My husband and 3 kids also love being around and caring for animals. I have regularly pet sat for friends for many years. I am a stay at home mom. I am home alone during the day, picking up my kids from school at 3:30 Monday - Friday. A few days a week I am required to drop my kids off at soccer practice after school. I have a fenced one acre property. I have an adult golden retriever that loves to play with other dogs and gets along well with cats. I have a large crate if needed as well.
“Copper had lots of fun! They sent me tons of videos of him playing all day long. He was definitely tired when we got home! I will definitely be using them again for daycare!”

About: For the past 14 years, my world revolved around my dog, Zuri. Sadly, she passed away in April, and while I’m not ready to welcome another dog into my life just yet, I realized how much I miss spending time with them. Caring for dogs has never felt like work to me. I’m naturally attentive, patient, and deeply attuned to animals. I tend to notice the little things; when a dog needs a slower pace, extra reassurance, more water, a sniff break, or simply someone calm to help them feel safe. Zuri taught me that every walk is the highlight of a dog’s day, not just another task to check off a list. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, anxious, or a senior who needs a gentler pace, I’ll care for them with the same love, presence, and respect I gave my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your best friend in someone else’s care, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease, knowing your dog is safe, understood, and genuinely loved while we’re together. I’m also available for boarding and overnight care, either in my home or yours. I’m home throughout the day, so your dog will have plenty of companionship and attention. I have experience caring for senior dogs, administering medications when needed, and understanding that every dog has their own personality, pace, and emotional needs. I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy being active, so dog walks fit naturally into my daily routine. Walking has been an important part of my own life for years, and after losing my beloved dog of 14 years a few months ago, spending time with dogs has become something that brings me joy and healing. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to making sure your dog gets the exercise, enrichment, and attention they deserve. I understand that trusting someone with your dog is a big decision because I know what it’s feels like to love a dog like family. I always prioritize safety by following your dog’s routine, using secure leash handling, paying close attention to their body language, and adapting to their individual personality and energy level. Whether your dog is playful, shy, anxious, or a senior who needs a slower pace, I’ll care for them with patience, kindness, and respect. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.
“Madison & Moses are awesome! So easy to communicate with and both have a great, calm energy that was perfect for helping my shy, anxious, rescue pittie feel right at home. It’s clear they’re both well-versed in dog behavior and I appreciate that they met my dog right where she was at. They had no issues giving her the time, space and patience needed to open up in her own time - it made all the difference. Thankful to have found them!”

About: I have years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior pets needing extra TLC. I'm reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like family. I'm comfortable with crate training, and special routines—and I always keep you updated with photos and messages! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pup the attention and care they deserve throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’m home and available to meet their needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I maintain a clean, calm environment and stick to their routine. I’m always attentive, secure with gates and leashes, and keep you updated with regular check-ins.
“Shelby and Dalton are the best! They are so responsive and accommodating!! Literally lifesavers, I work really long hours and my husband, who usually watches our dog during the day, had to travel for work last minute. Shelby and Dalton agreed to watch my pup on one of my long days and were so understanding and flexible when I had to pick her up later in the evening - truly I don’t know what I would’ve done without them! They treated her as if she were their own and she LOVED playing with their sweet pup and cuddling with one of the cats, and I got lots of updates and pictures throughout the day. I couldn’t recommend them enough, I will definitely be taking her back to hangout and play with her new best friends!”


About: Growing up I have always had dogs on the property and consider them part of the family. I believe a well trained dog is loved by its owner. I am an animal lover who want to help those who have a hard time with placement. I enjoy spending time with other people's pets because I am unable to have one for myself at this time. I am currently retired so I have time to spend with them daily. I can take them to parks, beach, lakes, etc. Depends on breed and how active they are. I have aquariums, reptiles and my extended family has dogs that I am frequently around. I have had exotic, elderly, injured and sick pets in my care. I foster for the Humane Society periodically and adjust my home according to the pets needs.
About: I am in the San Diego area currently working a remote job, looking to spend some quality time with dogs who need all the TLC they deserve but can’t get while their owners are away. I’m available for pet sitting, walking, and drop-ins! I’ve always grown up with a family dog in the house who I absolutely adored and have an undeniable love for all animals. I’d be available for last-minute help and cancellations are fine with me as well, so long as I’m given a heads up in an appropriate time in advance. I am a trustworthy, honest, and very reliable person. If you pick me to do the job, your pet would be in great hands and I would never let you down!
About: I have 35+ years of animal care experience. My animal care journey started with taking care of rabbits, chickens, horses, geese and my own pet fish, birds, gerbils, cats and dogs. I have a flexible schedule allowing for me to care for your pet day or night! I look forward to hearing from you and scheduling our first meet and greet, free of charge! I have two dogs in my home. They have 24/7 access to the fenced in yard for potty breaks and play time. I take boarders only after a meet and greet with my personal dogs to ensure a good fit for all!
“Berenice is amazing! She took great care of my pup and I am so grateful to her! He enjoyed spending time at her house with other doggies and her kids. She sent me photos and the report. She also got me a really nice card with his paw for Mother's Day! What a great thought! She just went above and beyond. I would recommend her for sure and will be using her services again in the future when in town.”

“I’ve booked Loren for a few walks and a game of fetch for my dog. She has great communication and is very responsive. I appreciate her professionalism and reliability. She has shown that I can count on her. Kona has a blast! Thanks Loren!”

About: I am not a professional dog sitter or walker but I do have a dog of my own as of 2021. One of the best decisions of my life. My little furball, Jayla. Many friends and family have dogs from small to big that’ll let me care for them as if they were one of my children. They are fur babies after all! Walking, playing, feedings, and bathroom time become a pawsitive routine in my care and I’m here to help when or wherever needed. I work a part-time schedule, which gives me flexibility to fit pet care into my day. I’m able to work around my job and other responsibilities while still providing reliable and attentive care. I’m happy to coordinate with clients to find times that work well for both of us. When it comes to walking your dogs, or dropping in on your cats, I always make sure to bring their leash, some treats if allowed, poop bags and to be SAFE, we will cross from other animals, children or adults. You have to be prepared! Exploring the routes is a great way to bond and keep them active! I will definitely know the signs of your furbaby wanting relax or be given space. If you have a set feeding schedule, you would like me use before or after walks I will provide that service.

I am highly adaptable, organized, and committed to following instructions closely while maintaining clear communication with pet owners.

“My family and I highly recommend Alexis and Adam as dog walkers! They walked my two German Shepherd mixes early in the morning for 16 consecutive days for an hour each while we were on vacation. Always on time, always submitting report cards with photos and the route they walked. On top of that, my dogs, who are rescues with shyness or aggression toward strangers AND severe dog reactivity on walks, LOVED Lex and Adam! As a professional dog trainer and walker myself, I’m extremely careful with people who interact with my dogs, and Lex and Adam exceeded my expectations! It’s clear to me that they take caring for their clients’ dogs seriously and both are extremely nice and personable. Thank you Lex and Adam!!”

About: Hi! I'm new to the Rover app, but I'm not new to caring for animals. I've always had a natural connection with animals and they seem to gravitate toward me wherever I go. I’m a stay at home mom of a 3 and 5 year old so I am always home and always active and my fiance is home while I run errands. We have a decent size fenced yard where your animal can get some energy out while staying safe. I truly believe animals are family, and I care for every pet as if they were my own child. I'm highly communicative, reliable, and genuinely empathetic. I pay close attention to each pet's unique personality and needs, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, or just having a calm companion, I'll make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. That's why I'll keep you updated with plenty of photos, videos, and messages throughout each visit, so you always know how your pet is doing and can enjoy those special moments even while you're apart. If you're a busy family looking for a dependable dog walker or pet sitter who will treat your pet with patience, kindness, and lots of love, I'd be honored to help. I can't wait to meet you and your best friend! I am a mom of two girls. I have a flexible schedule and I’m willing to do whatever’s necessary to make sure your pet is taken care of. I’m a hair stylist on weekends and I love when people bring their dogs to their appointments. Rover is great way for me to play with animals, get some exercise, and make some extra income. Just message me 😊 I make sure the dog goes outside to use the bathroom . Make sure the food and water bowl is always fresh and full. Engage and play with your pet. Chill, lay down, and watch tv together. I absolutely love playing tug of war with dogs so make sure to pack that toy in their overnight bag LOL. If I were to come to your house I would let you know exactly when I enter and when I leave and give you updates on your pet .

Pet care is always a part of my daily routine. I have 2 indoor cats and 2 stray cats that come everyday to eat and lay around. I can easily make time to tend to other pets I tend to other pets with love attention, make them at ease as it can be a stressful time for pets when human parents are away from home.

“Taylor and Andrew gave us such peace of mind leaving our elderly vizsla, River, for 4 nights. Not only are they the most caring people, but they welcomed River like she was one of their own, sent pic and video updates, gave her daily meds, and even introduced her to her new favorite toy. We will definitely ask for another doggie staycation in the future.”

“Kept my dog over Christmas and New Years (12 days) and did such a wonder job. They even worked with me to add 2 nights when i was having issues with flight. I got multiple pictures each day and they are very responsive when I text. I would recommend them to anyone. My dog always comes back happy.”

“Rippley and Biscuit loved Kaitlin and Verle! I was so happy to see how relaxed my reactive and senior puppers were at a new location. The pictures they sent me of the dogs in full potato mode assured me that they felt right at home.”

“I needed a sitter at the last minute at Ashley did an amazing job of communicating and being flexible and understanding when plans changed or issues arose that needed to to be addressed. She made me feel comfortable and always prioritized my pet's health and safety. I'm so thrilled I found her and will definitely be a return customer the nex time I'm in need of petcare. Do not hesitate to request her services!”

“Our first time boarding our dog and using Rover and great experience with both. Madison and Moses were wonderful to work with - quick to reply and patient in answering all our questions. The regular updates and pictures were reassuring. We got him back in good health and spirits. Bonus, he has been more chill interacting with his neighborhood crew of prupet pals. We plan to use again!”

“Cerita is my go to dog and cat sitter. She treats all of my fur babies with so much love and makes them feel completely at home. I especially appreciate the extra care she gives my senior cat, she’s very attentive when it comes to giving him his insulin.”

“Super grateful for Jasmine! She took a last minute booking for our dog over the holiday weekend so we could visit family. Communication was great, and our dog came home happy and well cared for. Will definitely use them again in the future.”

“So kind to our pups and made it so easy to coordinate. Super fast response times and sent lots of pics while the pups were with them. They even sent them home with cute bandanas that we will cherish always. Amazing care takers!”


“Nate, Ray, and their fur babies were awesome! We have since moved from Florida, but if I was local, we would love to book again! Thank you for your great babysitting of my puppy!”

“Overall, we had a good experience. They were able to accommodate our dog on very short notice, which we really appreciated. Erlinda was quick to respond, her daughter was easy to work with, and our dog was well taken care of. We’re grateful they were able to help us out last minute and would consider using them again.”

“Thank you so much for taking such good care of Benji all week. With the park right next door, he had a vacation of his very own. I was so happy to receive all the updates, it gave me such peace of mind knowing he was content. 5 stars for this great experience!”

“Autumn was absolutely outstanding with my Pups! One of them was rescued off the street 4 months ago and is very fearful around new people and places, but he had such an amazing time and didn't want to leave by the time we had to pick them up. They loved her so much that I honestly felt a little sad about taking them away from her. I feel like that just highlights how phenomenal she was. 10/5 stars!! Hope to be back next time!”

“Samantha is AMAZING! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone. She kept me updated while I was gone, sent pictures, and truly cared for my pup like her own. I felt at ease while away!”
“This was my dog’s first time ever staying with a sitter and my first time using Rover, so I was a little nervous. She kept me updated with messages and photos throughout the stay, which gave me peace of mind. When my flight was delayed, she was very flexible and gladly extended the booking. Leo was in great hands, and I’d definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”


“Savannah took great care of my pooches. This was the first time being apart from them overnight, so I was a little nervous. She gave several update pics and made sure my two were comfortable and didn't stress about being away from me. One of them is pretty reactive to other dogs, but her and husband were able to walk both pooches without any issues. I look forward to booking with Savannah again in the future.”


“Another amazing stay! We left our dogs for a week with Erica and she did not disappoint. She messaged me photos and updates every morning and evening. I was really worried about leaving my dogs for so long, but I knew they were in good hands! On the way back from our trip; our flight was delayed 4 hours. I messaged Erica about it and she said not to worry about it! When we came to pick the dogs up she had just finished taking the dogs on a nice walk and they were as happy as can be. I am so happy my husband and I found Erica who will be our dog sitter for all future travels! If you want someone who is understanding and very caring, Erica is definitely the dog sitter for you!”
