“Morgan was super helpful when I needed a sitter on my road trip! She was so good with Molly and helped out extra since Molly wasn’t feeling the best on my trip and eating irregularly”

“Sarah was amazing! From the beginning, she was very responsive to all of our questions about the booking. Our dog tends to be shy and can sometimes be aggressive with other dogs, but Sarah made it work, and our dog got along with hers right away. She sent us daily updates with photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind. Our dog was very happy during her stay! We will definitely book with Sarah again and highly recommend her as a dog sitter.”


“The best place to send your dog! I think our golden retriever likes it better at Deb and Steve’s house then he does at our own house… and we have a pretty happy home so that says a lot!”

“Elizabeth watched my two dogs for the first time for two nights. My two seven year old boys are higher energy requiring more attention than many other dogs. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She is incredibly sweet, attentive, and deeply responsible. Both my dog felt right at home from early on and absolutely enjoyed the walks and playtime. She sent me regular updates with pictures allowing total peace of mind. Perhaps more importantly, my two knuckleheads found a new best friend and I found a sitter that will definitely be used again for future needs.”

“So sweet! She sent me pictures of them every other day to keep me posted on how they were doing. She was fast at responding and welcomed my dogs into her home as if they were a part of her family too! When I went to pick them up they were happy and healthy! I will be using Lisette again to watch my pups!”

“Allison was great with watching our dog! We had a short notice request and she was able to communicate effectively and efficiently what would work with her schedule along with ours. She sent updates and photos regularly. Our dog had tons of fun running around in her fenced in yard! Thanks again Allison. 10/10 recommend.”

“Brittany definitely made us feel like we were leaving our pet in a well loved home! She checked in to send pictures often and even helped out with transportation after we'd had a long trip back home with a baby! Our dog has been exhausted since coming home, so we know she had a great time playing. We will not hesitate to reach out again when we have to go away, we know our pet will be safe, happy, and cared for ☺️”

“Cannot thank them enough. It was my first time using Rover and on a short notice request- no problem. I got pictures of Alfie playing and cuddling throughout his stay which set me at ease. He also came back smelling nicer and was freshly brushed, he was so happy! I 100% recommend Heather and Norman”

“I recommend Novelette highly. It seemed to take a bit for our dog to settle in, and Novelette was very patient & accommodating! She was a great communicator & sent plenty of pictures to keep me up-to-date on our dog. She was kind & flexible. Thank you again, Novelette!❤️”

“Amy was wonderful! She cared for my anxious Minnie Schnauzer, sending me updates and photos each day, and that set my mind at ease. Instant good vibe from Amy. Clean, comfortable home with a fenced yard, and daily walks. I will definitely call her again.”

“Summer was lovely to communicate with and sent a lot of photos of Raven, which I loved ! Raven was super pooped when I picked her up so I know she had a lot of exercise too.”

“Sandra was very accommodating and welcoming. This was our first experience with having someone other than family care for Chase. He seemed at ease and well cared for. We will definitely rebook with Sandra and cannot thank her enough for making this process easy.”

“Carmela was super nice with my elder dog. My chihuahua suffered violence from a teenager and now his behavior is not the best. Carmela was so comprehensive and knew how to manage him to keep him feel safe in her home. I am so thankful that she received my baby in her home for the time I had to travel.”
About: Your pet is not a guest in our house, it’s a loved family member for life! We individually your pet’s care based on its preferences and habits. I am a pet lover working from home who loves the company and snuggles. My kids are crazy about dogs and love them dearly also.

“This was Bodhi’s second stay with Katie and her family. They took wonderful care of him and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who will treat your pet with loving care and attention.”


“Shane and Allison were great! My dogs both required oral medications that they had no problems with. They sent regular photo updates and were easy to communicate with. Will definitely book with them again!”

“Hannah was great! Walter had the best time playing with Wolf and even got to go on a trip to play with other dogs! The big fences in back yard was amazing and I loved getting pics of him throughout.”

About: I have provided care for my private nanny family’s cat, including feeding, refreshing water, cleaning the litter box, spending time playing and providing companionship, and ensuring the cat was comfortable while the family was away. Through both my childcare and pet care experience, I understand the importance of being dependable, attentive, and treating every pet like a member of the family. I always strive to provide safe, compassionate care and keep owners updated for peace of mind.
“Jillian always takes such good care of our Peanut! She gives great updates and photos of our sweet girl when we are away and makes sure she is cared for, would recommend her highly to everyone!”

“Shea was absolutely wonderful with my cat! She was available last minute and very flexible with her schedule for us. Vuka had a great week with her and I couldn’t recommend her enough!”


“Russ and Janet took wonderful care of our two cats. They made daily visits to give them some social time along with feeding and litter box checks. They were even trusted enough by our shy girl for her to show herself to them, something she typically doesn’t do with people new to her. We will happily hire Russ and Janet again and fully recommend them to others!”


About: I owned a cat growing up and have done drop ins for friends cats over the years. I’ve taken in stray/lost cats for a few nights at a time until I find their owner or determine they should go to a shelter.
“We’ve used Mark more than once to spend time with our senior, and sassy, cat Lulu. She is very well taken care of, and we get regular updates on how she is doing. Mark is also very responsive to any messages we send. Highly recommended!”

About: Hi there! I've been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember. I'm 28 years old and have spent my entire life caring for pets, from from raising playful puppies and kittens to supporting them through their senior years. That lifelong experience has taught me that every pet has their own personality, routine, and unique needs. What sets me apart is the care and attention I give to both pets and their owners. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else requires a great deal of trust (from personal experience), so I make communication a priority. You can expect regular updates, photos, and honest check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing and can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to their familiar routine, I'm happy to adapt my care to what makes them feel safest and happiest. I'm patient with young pets who are still learning, gentle with senior pets who may need extra time and attention, and committed to treating every animal with the same love and respect I would give my own. I'm also preparing to move to London to begin graduate school in the fall as well, which means I have a flexible schedule over the next few months. I'm excited to use this time caring for pets, meeting wonderful families, and providing dependable, loving care whenever you need an extra helping hand. My goal is simple: for your pet to feel comfortable, cared for, and love and for you to feel completely confident that they're in good hands.

“Samantha was super communicative during our week away. One of our dogs is a senior and I was hesitant to leave her with her mobility issues but Samantha kept me updated and sent plenty of pictures. Our dogs did not seem stressed upon our return as they had consistent company with Samantha. I highly recommend her services!”


“Alexandra was reliable and took great care in making sure the cats were taken care of as we discussed. She cleaned everything up nicely very communicative and again in a heartbeat! Thank you!”


“Hannah was a lifesaver! She was available last minute before the holidays after our other sitter canceled and handled Teddy’s care perfectly! Thanks to Hannah we had peace of mind during our hectic holiday travel. We would happily leave Teddy in her care again!”


“Rachel is wonderful! It was so clear she was invested in my cat's well-being and prioritized my cat's comfort. Rachel was incredibly communicative and so helpful in introducing my cat to her animals. I would absolutely trust her with my cat again! She sent frequent updates on how my cat was adjusting to being in a new place, including pictures. Thank you for taking such good care of my cat, Rachel!”

About: I have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages. I have a dog of my own who is 10 years old and is disabled. I love dogs a lot. I would like to earn a little extra money on the weekends when I am not working at my full time job during the week. I absolutely love dogs and cats. I am very much an animal person. I will do anything that is needed to keep your animals safe. I have experience with different kinds of care including using electric fences and physical fences and also using leashes outside. I also have experience with disabled dogs.

“Maryann continues to be our favorite cat & house sitter! She gives the kitties lots of love and play time. They love her! She is super communicative and always quick to respond to my messages. We always come home to a house that was cleaner than we’d left it! Highly recommend for all pet & house sitting needs.”


“I had Molly come to the house a few times during this past week and Molly was wonderful with Benny, she arrived on time, follow my directions with Benny, left me detailed messages about the visits. I had a weird schedule and she was able to accommodate us. We really appreciate it! And I also got lots of pictures, This was my first time using Rover we’re grateful for Molly, I will definitely have her services again.”

About: I have been walking and caring for my own personal animals - 2 dogs, cat, bird, hamsters since I was 5 years old. I also have been dog sitting and walking for numerous neighbors and friends in the area. I work during the day a full-time job. I am available early in the morning and after 4:00pm during the week. I am available on the weekends anytime of the day. I have a fenced in backyard that my 4 year old Brittany Spaniel, Maggie loves to run around and play ball. It is completely fenced in so she can't get out. I love to be outside playing with my dog and bring her on 3+ walks a day around town and at the local park.

“Brittany’s amazing and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my cats were in great care! She took the time to go out of her way and stop over for a meet and greet before we left which made me feel at ease. Great communication and sent pictures of our cats snuggling up. One of my cats is shy to warm up to new people but she truly is an animal whisperer and he was laying down right by her feet the second he met her! Thanks Brittany!”

“Mr. Russ and Ms. Janet are awesome!! I feel so comfortable leaving my 1 year old golden retriever who has tons of energy with them. They respond so fast to messages and are so welcoming!!! They’re my fave!! Thank you!!”

About: We're a husband-and-wife team who spent nearly 20 years with four beloved adopted pets, all with their own quirks, personalities and needs. In another life, Laura worked in veterinary hospitals and emergency care with plans of becoming a veterinarian. Life ultimately took her in another direction, but the love of animals stuck – and our own pets taught us plenty, too. Especially Winston. He came to us after a really tough start, fearful and reactive to just about everything. With the help of veterinarians and positive reinforcement–based trainers – and a whole lot of patience, play and love – he became the sweetest snuggler, constant shadow and one of the great loves of our lives. Now after saying goodbye to the last of our four, the house is just too quiet. We're not ready for new pets yet, but we miss that presence only an animal can bring. So, for now, we'd love to borrow yours. You get to travel knowing they're loved and well cared for, and we get the walks, cuddles and ridiculous personalities we've been missing. One of us works from home, and the other is home frequently, so your dog will have lots of company throughout the day and rarely be left alone. Our schedules are flexible, making it easy to accommodate your dog's usual meals, medications, bathroom breaks, walks and bedtime routine. We know how much pets rely on the little rhythms they're used to at home... We have no resident pets and welcome dogs from just one household at a time, so your dog(s) won't be sharing our home with unfamiliar animals. This can be especially great for dogs who are anxious, selective with other dogs, accustomed to being the only pet, or just simply more comfortable in a quieter environment. We both come from long careers in biotech, where safety and attention to detail are second nature. We bring that same mindset to caring for your dog – from medications and feeding instructions to gates, walks, weather, household hazards and the little things unique to your pet. Every new dog starts with a meet-and-greet so we can all get comfortable with one another before you travel. We want to understand what makes your dog feel safe, comfortable and at home – and we'll never push them into activities or situations that aren't right for them.
“We had to book a doggie day care day last minute with Allison and she was fantastic! Very friendly and welcoming and she took such good care of our Poppy. Highly recommend!”

“Brittany was awesome with Luna. I was a little nervous to leave Luna with someone. I felt comfortable leaving Luna with her as soon as I dropped her off. She kept me updated with pictures. My dog loves her. Luna came home happy, tired, and full.”


“Karen provides an excellent atmosphere for dogs. My dog felt happy and at home in her care. She was also very sweet and accommodating to my schedule. I am so grateful to have met her.”

“Hannah was great, she kept me updated and sent me photos/ videos to show me how much fun my puppy had. It was nice to see Reese with his new dog friends Wolf and Connie 😊 She has a very large backyard with so much room to run and play. I will definitely be bringing Reese back again.”

“This was my first time booking with Vassu. Vassu was wonderful with my dog, Maddie. Maddie enjoyed her large fenced in yard, including discovering her dog door. Maddie was also spoiled with walks, dog toys, and the company of Vassu's dog Ninja. Vassu shared pictures with me through out Maddie's stay. Vassu was professional and made my first time experience with the Rover App a comfortable and enjoyable experience. I will definitely use Vassu in the future. Maddie and I thank Vassu, Ninja, and her family for all the love you gave her while she stayed.”

“My dog Milo adores Paul. It is extremely reassuring to see how excited Milo gets to see Paul pull into the driveway to take him for the day. Paul responds very quickly to messages/requests, is very accommodating, and provides me with updates and pictures/videos of the day they had on walks and hiking. I have utilized him numerous days when I need assistance with Milo, and it is nice to have someone so trustworthy to watch after my pup.”


“I have been very conflicted on this review. While the lead up was easy enough and Shane was responsive, the actual day of the service was just a bit odd. We were visiting from out of town and needed someone to watch our 5 month old puppy for the day. I confirmed the day before and Shane stated his girlfriend would be there as he was out until 1. No problem. Asked for her name and how I should contact her once we knew exactly what time we’d be there. He gave us her name and told us to just arrive “whenever” that she’d see us on the ring camera. Drop off was easy enough and Allie was super kind. Clear that she loves animals. We never received a follow up from Shane or any pictures or even just a note that the puppy was doing ok. Every pet sitter we’ve ever had has always sent at least 1 photo from the visit. Wasn’t a huge deal, but just interesting. We were going to arrive to pick the puppy up about 40 mins earlier than originally planned so I messaged Shane to let him know. When we got to the house Allie had the puppy ready to go and handed her over to us. Easy enough. Shane was outside. I said hello to him and thanked him. But, he never acknowledged us or said anything. Never even acknowledged the puppy as we were walking by him to pop her in the car. I was conflicted about what rating to give as the puppy seemed well cared for while there. But, the experience was a bit weird.”

“Sylvia is an amazing dog sitter! I used her services for two days, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She and her family are incredibly kind, welcoming, and caring. They treated Luna like she was part of the family, and it truly gave me peace of mind while I was away. The best part? Luna had so much fun that she didn't even want to come home! 🥹🐾❤️ I highly recommend Sylvia to anyone looking for a loving, trustworthy, and attentive dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Okay, I am sorry. Cannot find another way to leave message on Rover. FYI, there is no "3-dotted icon in the upper right corner of the upcoming tab so that I can modify a booking." As Novelette & I discussed this week, I will not need daycare on August 10, 13, 24,27, and 31, or September 3. This is a combination of her and my vacation weeks and will be a rare exception to our regular Monday & Thursday schedule. Thank you for your attention, and here is my review: "Bruce loves visiting Novelette and is making a great adjustment there. She is very warm, nurturing, and responsive to his needs. We could not be happier with how things are going so far. Thank you!"”

“Thank you so much for your understanding and care. She had such a great time and slept all the way home. Wish you lived closer because I know Mei would love to visit again. She is so shy and you really became friends fast. You are the best!”

“Adam and his family were wonderful with our pup. It was apparent that they had a love for animals. We received photos and updates throughout the day, giving us peace of mind that she was well taken care of. We were able to enjoy our day without worry. We can’t thank them enough!”

“Erin was great with my dog Willow. At the meet and greet she was professional and personable. Willow has a little trouble with meeting strangers for the first time and Erin handled it perfectly. Willow warmed up to her on the first walk and adapted to Willow’s initial shyness by feeding her from under our side table by the couch where she likes to hide. She took excellent photos and kept me informed. I highly recommend Erin.”

“Mark has been awesome with Chance. My work hours changed and Marks walks with Chance give him the fresh air and exercise he loves so much. Mark has been very flexible with my requests when my schedule changes. I know Chance appreciates the attention!”

“Melissa was great with my dog! at first my dog was very shy but Melissa was patient and worked with my dog until she was conformable to go for a walk. Melissa responded quickly to my request and always took photos of my dog on the walk.”

“Paul is a wonderful addition to my dog’s routine! I was scrambling to figure out what to do on my 12 hour days with my newly adopted rescue female pit mix when classes started this Fall. After reviewing a few profiles, Paul’s really stuck out as someone with both passion and genuine knowledge about dogs/dog behavior. I asked him to come meet my dog before we officially booked to ensure that she reacted well to him. Within the first few minutes, my dog was on her back requesting belly rubs. Needless to say, they hit it off! I feel very comfortable with Paul and SO pleased with how happy my dog looks in the pictures I get from their weekly walks. Even when she refuses to go outside in the rain, he spends time hanging out with her so she still gets some attention. I couldn’t be more appreciative and I’m sure my dog would 100% agree!”

About: I have a 6 year old Jack Russel/Chihuahua that is the sweetest most loving girl! I have trained her myself since she was a puppy, I have learned SO much. I have a schedule that’s a little all over the place but I’m willing to work out different times through the week that best suits you and your dog. It’s something that would have to be discussed based on your wants and needs for your dog. All dogs are different, every dog owner is different. But I would be sure to feed, give them water and walk as needed.

Since I’m on summer break, my schedule is very flexible during the months of July and August. Once school is in session, I will be available most weekday evenings, weekends, and holidays. I have two dogs of my own, so I would not be available to board or pet sit overnight. I am available for walks, drop in visits, day visits, meal times throughout the day. I would be respectful of your home and loving and attentive towards your pet.

About: I am a former veterinary technician with many years experience with all types of pups and kitties! I have a love and passion for working with animals, my first job was working on a farm. I love learning about different breeds and behaviors and pride myself in understanding animal behavior. I have worked with all breeds of dogs and all types of behaviors from aggressive to timid to scared and anxious. I hope to meet many new pups and build lasting relationships while helping with you and your pups needs for years to come! I am available most times to care for your pets. Work during the day until only 1:30pm and then home the rest of the day! I am available to provide feeding, watering, insulin injections, any type of pills that are needed for cats or dogs. Own a condo now so only taking small/medium pups and kitties, until I get my house. There is plenty of room to play and go for walks and exercise!

“Morgan was super helpful when I needed a sitter on my road trip! She was so good with Molly and helped out extra since Molly wasn’t feeling the best on my trip and eating irregularly”


“The best place to send your dog! I think our golden retriever likes it better at Deb and Steve’s house then he does at our own house… and we have a pretty happy home so that says a lot!”

“So sweet! She sent me pictures of them every other day to keep me posted on how they were doing. She was fast at responding and welcomed my dogs into her home as if they were a part of her family too! When I went to pick them up they were happy and healthy! I will be using Lisette again to watch my pups!”

“Allison was great with watching our dog! We had a short notice request and she was able to communicate effectively and efficiently what would work with her schedule along with ours. She sent updates and photos regularly. Our dog had tons of fun running around in her fenced in yard! Thanks again Allison. 10/10 recommend.”

“Brittany definitely made us feel like we were leaving our pet in a well loved home! She checked in to send pictures often and even helped out with transportation after we'd had a long trip back home with a baby! Our dog has been exhausted since coming home, so we know she had a great time playing. We will not hesitate to reach out again when we have to go away, we know our pet will be safe, happy, and cared for ☺️”

“Cannot thank them enough. It was my first time using Rover and on a short notice request- no problem. I got pictures of Alfie playing and cuddling throughout his stay which set me at ease. He also came back smelling nicer and was freshly brushed, he was so happy! I 100% recommend Heather and Norman”

“Summer was lovely to communicate with and sent a lot of photos of Raven, which I loved ! Raven was super pooped when I picked her up so I know she had a lot of exercise too.”

“Sandra was very accommodating and welcoming. This was our first experience with having someone other than family care for Chase. He seemed at ease and well cared for. We will definitely rebook with Sandra and cannot thank her enough for making this process easy.”

About: Your pet is not a guest in our house, it’s a loved family member for life! We individually your pet’s care based on its preferences and habits.

“This was Bodhi’s second stay with Katie and her family. They took wonderful care of him and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who will treat your pet with loving care and attention.”

“Hannah was great! Walter had the best time playing with Wolf and even got to go on a trip to play with other dogs! The big fences in back yard was amazing and I loved getting pics of him throughout.”

“Sarah was quick to respond to my request, and was willing to work with me regarding drop off and pick up times. I really appreciated her taking time for both my senior pup and I to feel comfortable before I left. My girl was happy when I picked her up, and I couldn’t be more grateful to have found Sarah!”

“Jenna had a excellent stay she was very well taken care of Abigale snd Eric were very friendly and accepting of me being a over protective anxious dog mom they are well equipped to take care of her I will book with them again”

“Elliott took excellent care of my golden retriever. He responded promptly to all communications, sent me regular updates and photos, and even let her sleep on his bed! He was kind and understanding when I had to shorten my dogs’ stay due to a family emergency.”

“I felt very confident my dog would be very well taken care of. I’ve left him with Liz for long periods multiple times, and each time I felt at ease. It’s clear she truly cares and will treat the pets she cares for as her own.”
