We will definitely book with them again.”

Jennifer was very communicative throughout the week - keeping us updated throughout our trip with thoughtful messages and plenty of photos showing Daisy relaxed, happy, and clearly enjoying her time with Jennifer and her family. It gave us real peace of mind knowing Daisy was in such caring and capable hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jennifer again—highly recommended!”

“Saori was such a great sitter for our pups (1 year old great pyrenees). She took them to the dog park in the morning for a couple of hours, helped continue our invisibile fence training, and sent us so many pics and updates throughout the weekend. I could tell how happy and comfortable our dogs were in her home and under her care. They came home so tired because they had so much fun with her and the other dogs!”

“Elizabeth was amazing! We truly could not have asked for a better boarding experience. Our dog Luna is pretty nervous around new people, but Elizabeth and her family created a safe, comfortable environment that allowed Luna to come out of her shell. The regular updates and photos we received throughout our trip were much appreciated. I would recommend Elizabeth to any dog owner in a heartbeat 🐾”

“Jayme really helped us out with watching Diesel when we had to go away for a long weekend for a family wedding. I felt very comfortable knowing that Diesel was in good hands and that he had a yard to play around with. Jayme is very kind and sent several pictures of Diesel. Knowing that he was in someone’s loving home and not in a boarding facility put me at ease. I would recommend Jayme without hesitation for anyone who wants their dog to have a home away from home!”

“Morgan was great, Milo had initially a bit of a hard time adapting to new spaces but she was very very good at making him feel safe and at communicating with me throughout the time I was away. I just took him home and he is very relaxed and playful. I am very satisfied and will definitely book her again!”
“I'm very thankful for Katie, she was able to watch our 18 year old senior kitty on two occasions while we were away. She kept us updated through the app and sent pics of him after each visit. She was also able to give him his insulin and other medication, which was amazing and helped put us at ease. Overall, she was great and I would highly recommend her!”
“I always use Erika to pet sit when I'm out of town. She's very patient with my timid kitty. I appreciate that she responds quickly, is professional, and attentive. Look forward to booking again in the future.”
“Chelsea was absolutely wonderful to work with. She took excellent care of our sweet cat and African grey parrot. We were able to have a good time away knowing that they were in such good hands. I highly recommend Chelsea!”

“Hailey was perfect with our two shy cats. She had them wrapped around her fingers after the first visit. We were shocked to receive photos of them being chatty with her and wanting all the pets. She went above and beyond what we requested. She will take care of your pets and treat your home as if her own. We will absolutely be rebooking with Hailey.”
“Stephanie M. was awesome! This is the first time I have used Rover and Stephanie made me feel at ease about leaving my 2 cats in her care. She sent great pictures and documented what they were up to in detail. I will definitely ask her to watch my babies again!”
“Melony was great! She stayed at my place with my needy (for attention) cat for 2 weeks, gave him medicine and followed feeding schedule, sent me pictures daily and answered my texts immediately. I would definitely book her again, and recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter!”
“McKenzie was fantastic while I was away on vacation, taking great care of my two cats and dog. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly gave each pet the attention they needed. I came home to happy, well-cared-for animals and total peace of mind. I’d absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her!”
“My girls love Alex and I know I always say this but I love the peace of mind I have when traveling because I know Alex will take such good care of my cats and leave me lovely photos and feedback of how they’re doing when I’m away.”

“Keleigh is outstanding. Our cat has a medical condition and requires medicine twice a day. Our cat also likes lots of attention. Keleigh stayed at our house while we were away and took great care of our cat and house. When we returned home our cat was very happy, which is a clear sign that he got good care. If he didn't like his care, he would have definitely let us know. Keleigh sent us regular updates about our cat while we were away. We will be happy her to request her cat sitting services again when we are traveling. We highly recommend her.”
“Laura is great!! The first time she came to my house to meet my kitties she asked a lot of questions about the cats and the house in case something happened while we were out. I realized that she has a lot of experience taking care of pets. My cats love her and I was happy to know that my babies were in good hands. She sent me pictures and messages every day. I really recommend her!! THANK YOU LAURA!!”

“I recently had the pleasure of using Mariana for the first time, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the experience. Throughout the stay, Mariana provided regular updates, including photos and videos, which really put my mind at ease. It was evident that my dog was happy, well-exercised, and receiving plenty of attention. I highly recommend Mariana to anyone in need of a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter. Their service exceeded all my expectations, and I will definitely be booking Mariana again in the future!”
“Liliana and her husband were great!! Turbo stayed with them while we worked 2 times. He is super anti social but the 2nd time he stayed with them he was wiggling his tale as soon as we dropped him off which is great news for my dog. They kept me up to date, were very flexible with my late pick up times & meet and greet reschedules. Thank you so much for taking care of our baby!”
“Moby had a great time! Thank you so much for being so caring and loving! We really appreciate the flexibility as well! We hope to bring Moby back to play with the girls soon! ~ Yuki & Jeremy”
“My mini golden doodle, Maple, had a wonderful time at Angela’s for daycare! She updated us throughout the day with pictures. Maple has social anxiety but she warmed up to Angela’s home and loved running around her big backyard with other dogs. I will definitely rebook in the future!”
“Kristen was great with our 3 month old puppy. She was flexible, sent us plenty of pictures, and responded quickly. It was a serene getaway for him and he looked very comfortable in her home. She took him on walks and he walked really well with her. On the second day drop off Kameron was wagging his tail as we walked inside and went straight for a prized green toy he loved. The pictures she sent were beautiful and she was very easy to talk to. I highly recommend her would absolutely use her again.”
About: I rescued my own dog from a shelter, and she required a lot of special training and patience. I worked with her on socialization, leash walking, and reducing pulling and barking around other dogs, and I have successfully helped her improve in all of these areas. Since she was a puppy when I adopted her, I also have experience with the patience, consistency, and care that younger dogs require. In addition, I care for a senior dog, so I am experienced in recognizing when a dog has reached their physical limit during walks and understanding how to adjust care based on their needs. Having experience with both younger and older dogs, as well as both large and small breeds, has taught me how to handle dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and training levels with confidence and care. I am currently in school but there are only three days a week I am completely booked with classes. My Mondays and Fridays and weekends are completely open and would love to spend my free time around more dogs! I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment for pets while they are in my care. Since I live in an apartment, I make sure the space is pet-friendly, secure, and free of anything that could be harmful to animals. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, exercise, and any special instructions from the owner. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions closely to help pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I prioritize safety during walks, monitor pets closely around other animals, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, patience, and affection. I also provide updates and communication so owners feel reassured while their pets are in my care.
“Andrea was just wonderful. It was my first time leaving them with a sitter. I knew I could trust her with my babies right off the bat. She’s sweet and caring and communicated with me the whole time because I was anxious being away from them. It’s easy to see that she is a dog person to the core. Highly recommend!”
“Bruce is wonderful! I dropped Jojo off for her first day, and she was given lots of walks and attention and water. Came home tired but so happy. She’s an anxious dog, but Bruce was wonderful with her and made her feel at ease!”
“Noemi and her family are incredibly kind. My pup can be high energy so their large backyard is a great fit for him to run and have fun. Blue is also loved by their children and he absolutely loves them back. Your pup will be in great hands with them. They also send photos and updates throughout the day which is nice update to receive. Thank you for all you do!”
“Nicole was very sweet. She constantly sent pictures and videos of our dogs playing and made us feel more comfortable. Our puppy had a great time and was exhausted when she got home! We will definitely use her again!”
“Noel and Martha were absolutely wonderful! Their home is perfect for fur babies and our 7mo pup had an amazing time. He was exhausted by the end of the day after all the fun and play. They kept us updated throughout the day and sent plenty of photos showing him playing, eating, and relaxing. It was such a blessing to have peace of mind knowing he was being taken care of and enjoying himself at that. We highly recommend and will definitely rebook in the future!”
“We had a wonderful experience using Ingrid’s doggy day care services for the first time. We started with a meet and greet and Ingrid is helping Shadow ease into the new space and other dog intros in a digestible fashion. She is quick to respond, has great communication, very professional and experienced, with attentiveness towards each dog’s unique needs. It’s a relief to know my pup is in safe, caring hands getting the love, attention, play and exercise he needs. We just moved to the area and are looking forward to booking with Ingrid regularly during my work days. Thank you, Ingrid!”
“Rachel was amazing with our deaf pup, Hazel! She was so communicative and made us feel comfortable. Hazel had a wonderful time at daycare! Would recommend Rachel to everyone!”
“Gwynne is the best dog sitter we’ve ever had!!! We tried other rover sitters but no one is as dedicated, responsive and caring as her. My dogs Bubble and Molly got two long walks in the scenic neighborhood, rolling time in the beautiful yard (safely leashed!!), cuddling time with mini humans. The dogs and the kids cannot be more adorable. Bubble and Molly couldn’t be any happier! They fell asleep five minutes after we picked them up. I highly recommend Gwynne as a wonderful dog sitter.”
“I’m extremely thankful that Michelle is able to accommodate my request to take care of Haru as I made a day trip to Tampa. It was very last minute request because my previous sitter had to cancel a day prior. She beautifully handled my sassy Shiba.”

“Rachael did a great job with my dog Harry today! He came home happy & tired so that's a good thing. He ate his dinner quite heartily too, ha, ha! I'm looking forward to having her come back again hopefully on a regular basis for walks & see if we can get some weight off Harry as he is overweight for his size right at this stage in life. Thanks so much Rachael!”
“I can tell she truly loves animals. Xander usually barks at strangers but he was very calm with her. It was a very smooth experience with her and I will definitely be using her services again. Thank you so much ❤️”
About: I have over 7 years of experience taking care of both my own fur babies along with friends and family. This includes walking, exercising, bathing, feeding (including needed medications). I am currently working day shifts in operations (with rotating open weekend availability) and I’d love to exercise/tend your fur babies. I’m open to regular schedules or even random check ins if you’re just busy/stressed and need some quiet space! I love having a conversation with pet parents about what their current routine is, what’s working/not working, if their pet is social, and what they expect from myself. I think it’s only respectful and mindful of safety, to properly speak of these key points to create a trusting pet sitter relationship.
About: I have several years of paid and volunteer experience with all animals, including dogs, cats, fish, chickens, rabbits, horses, and goats. Growing up, I had two dogs, one small and one medium. I also used to volunteer at a therapeutic horse-riding center for people with disabilities, where I groomed horses and cleaned their barns. I currently have two guinea pigs who are contained in cages, but are very curious, playful, and friendly with other animals. I'm an incoming Master's student who is currently working part-time this summer. I have a highly flexible schedule and short commute times, which gives me more time to care for your pets! My pricing is extremely flexible and I am open to negotiating. I have spacious front and back yards where your pet can roam. I also have a doggy gate to block off the upstairs of my house if necessary, but our downstairs and upstairs are very dog-proof from years of caring for our previous pets. I live in a 3-bedroom home, providing ample room for your pet to explore and wander inside if they prefer the indoors. I also have dog bowls, leashes, toys, and food, ready for use.
“Priscilla is kind and bonded with my dog instantly. This is my first time using a service like this and I can't tell you what a relief it is to know my dog is loved by her as much as I do. Highly recommend.”
“Steve was fantastic with my three dogs! His calm, easygoing energy made a noticeable difference right away. One of my dogs, Dolly, typically needs some time to warm up to new people but almost immediately she was walking happy and relaxed. This honestly blew me away. It's clear Steve has a natural way with dogs. I'd highly recommend him, especially if you have a pup that can be a little hesitant with strangers. We'll definitely be booking again!”
About: I have experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs and cats. My responsibilities have included feeding, providing fresh water, walking dogs, cleaning litter boxes and living areas, administering medications when needed, and ensuring pets receive plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. I am attentive to each pet's individual needs and prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. I am reliable, patient, and committed to providing loving, responsible care while owners are away. I’m currently unemployed while my children are in daycare and after school programs. Outside of appointments I’m free spending time with my cats and my females kittens I currently have 2 black cats. My female whom I rescued recently was pregnant and had 6 babies(3 weeks old) I’ve also had dogs and cats in my past. I love animals. My home is clean and organized.
“Julie has been amazing with my dog, Cooper. She’s been doing his mid-day walks and has been incredibly reliable and flexible, which I’ve really appreciated. She’s been easy to communicate with and very accommodating with my schedule. Honestly, I’d keep working with her without hesitation if I weren’t moving. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to take care of their dog.”
“Stephanie is excellent. She is reliable and so flexible. Our dog just loves her walks, we have such peace of mind when we leave for work. I would highly recommend her services.”
“Priscilla saved the day accepting my request at very short notice. I had a 12 hour shift to work and no coverage for Louis. Additionally, I realized at the end of that 12 hour shift that I had no coverage for the next two days due (in no small part to a massive house move that had just occurred). Again, Priscilla came to the rescue and helped me for the next two days. She is a great communicator and a clearly dedicated professional.”
About: I have been dog and cat sitting for 4 years. I have 2 cats and a dog and I frequently dog sit for my neighbors! I am great with all ages of pets! I am currently a freshman in college and only have classes in the mornings. My afternoons are free during the week, along with a completely free weekend schedule! I have 4 cats of my own along with a dog and I love to play with them. I also love going outside with dogs and keeping them active! I have enjoyed pet sitting for as long as I can remember.
