“Heather was absolutely wonderful about keeping us in the loop on how our dog was doing. We could tell from the pictures and messages she sent us that Mylo was doing just fine. It was our first time leaving him since we rescued him in September so we were nervous about it. We’ll definitely use Heather again when we need to go out of town.”
“Corinna did a terrific job with caring for Rizzo and keeping us aware of how he was doing with text and pictures. We would definitely use her services again and would recommend her to others.”
“Emily and her family did an outstanding job of caring for Rizzo. He was having such a fun time, he didn’t want to leave. We’ll definitely be using Emily to care for Rizzo in the future .”
“One of the best hosts I have ever had the chance of working with Not only did she adjust the timings for us but also kept us upto date with daisy. Definitely will rebook her”
“Nyjeah W. Took good care of my Schnoodle Dog Hosanna and my cat Shylynn she was very responsive with updates, very reliable. I would recommend her if you need someone to watch your loving pets she's the best.”

About: I've taken care of dogs since the ripe age of 7 with basic care of water/food in bowl and every 2-4hrs of potty. Whether it was friends or family. Didn't start going professional till 15 with babysitting for children and their family pups! For cats, I own a cat myself and been taking care of her for 8 years. With consistent of litter changes, basic necessities and cuddles! I am free majority of the summer before college. Tuesday's will not be free.

“Ashley and her husband were amazing. We drove to her home beforehand and she gave us a tour of her home. She kept me up to date with pictures of my pup through his stay and I could tell he was very well taken care of. We will definitely be hiring Ashley for all our pupsitting needs. Highly recommend her!”
“Luna had a great time at Terry’s with his other pups. It was nice to know she was in good hands and good company while we were out town. I will gladly have Terry watch her again next time we need someone!”
“Heather and Leah were fantastic! They were able to watch Stanley last minute and he was incredibly well taken care of. He clearly had a ton of fun because he came home and slept with a smile on his face. Thank you Heather and Leah!”
“Carol was organized and asked a lot of great questions to ensure my dog was comfortable and happy. I am embarrassed to admit that my dog panicked at the meet and greet and immediately went to the bathroom in her house. She just had been mostly cooped up during the pandemic and a new house with new people just freaked her out. I was surprised Carol was still willing to watch her, but she took all this in stride. I could tell my dog was bonding with her throughout the week. I highly recommend this understanding and thoughtful sitter! I know she's going to be my first choice from now on.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch our dog, Vector, while we were on vacation! She did such an amazing job, she sent us lots of photos and updates so we always knew how he was doing, which gave us total peace of mind. It was clear that she gave him so much love and attention while we were away. We came home to a very happy dog, and we’re so grateful for the care she gave him. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pets!”

“Jean provided another terrific experience in my absence…I’m so grateful she continues working with Rover! I can tell from the clean smell in my house that the litter box was cleaned every day or even twice a day since she visits twice a day. When I return, Charlie meows at her usual visit time to call Jean over for more visits!”
“Heather did a great job as usual. She communicated consistently and adjusted as needed due to weather and my travel plans. I feel relieved knowing that she is looking after my fur babies while I'm gone.”
“Our first time with Sophia was great. She followed instructions during the daily visits, communicated clearly, and was adaptive with feedback. Thank you so much for caring for my crew!!!”
“Luke was great! He sent pictures each day and gave me an update. He never gave up on winning over one of my cats and it finally paid off. I appreciate his professionalism.”

“Michelle was just absolutely wonderful with Snow and Storm. This was my first experience with Rover and Michelle's hospitality has made me a satisfied customer. Thank you!”
About: I have worked with pups and kittys since I was little, I have done puppy training all the way to taking care of senior pets. I have had much practice over the years with all of my own furry family members and now to having a few solid clients I service on a regular basis before even joining Rover. So I love taking care of folks furry family members including my own Doberman and my sisters cat while she's gone away at college. However I work for the government Tuesday - Saturday 10:30 a.m.-7p.m. so I can be there during the mornings and I can take care of them as soon as I get off work in the evenings for feedings, potty breaks, walks, etc. Unfortunately, I more than likely will not be able to do midday potty breaks so if you're someone who works from home and let's them out frequently it probably will not work out. But if they're used to being in during the day already from work schedules then it should be a perfect fit! I take care of my Doberman pup through trainings with positive reinforcement via toys and treats. I feed him every morning and evening, taking him on walks out in the woods and letting him run wild in our big back yard.
About: As I have with dogs, I've also pet-sit many lovely felines. Litter is no big deal, I'm willing to help out wherever I can. Whether you have a grumpy old cat or an energetic kitten, I can promise to love them all with my whole heart.
“She took really good care of my adult cat and 7 month old kitten. Both cats were properly feed and comfortable. She was flexible to last minute scheduling and arrangement modifications. I would definitely book with her again!”
“This was my second booking with Angel. He sent several sweet photos and videos of my kitty, who was clearly content with the situation. When I got home my cat acted like I was never gone. This is the best sign of a great cat sitter! My home was clean and tidy, just as I left it. I will definitely book Angel again.”
“This is the second time that Jenna has cared for my fur babies, while I was gone for a few days. Once again, she did a great job and I would highly recommend her!!”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 9. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to care for their pets while they were out of town.

I am a teacher on summer break so I have lots of time and attention to devote to your animals! I am available at any time of the day. I have a fenced in backyard and currently no animals in my house. I live walking distance from a lot of great dog walking spots! I am also available to care for pets in their own home.

“Genna and her family are wonderful! We were traveling from out of state, and had the opportunity to meet up with some old friends for dinner. We contacted Genna and she opened her home to our senior golden doodle. I was impressed that before saying yes, Genna asked some questions to make sure her home was a good fit. She sent pictures that reassured us that he was doing fine. She has a nice house and a larged fenced yard to insure the safety of your pet.

“We had a good first experience with Emilie as Poppy’s sitter. Poppy seemed to do well during her stay, and we appreciated receiving photo updates while we were away. Communication was smooth throughout, and we didn’t have any complaints. We would be more than comfortable booking with Emilie again in the future.”
“Very patient and kind with a dog you don’t know and will probably not see again since we’re traveling. Thank you for your kindness and care of Judy, as well as tips to help her adjust.”

She was so kind, and Tommy warmed up to her quickly. We really appreciated having a great place to take him for the afternoon!”
About: I’ve never met a dog that doesn’t like me. I donate a bag of treats each stay from my dog’s social media sponsor. We take a walk every single day. I am a teacher so I am out of the house from 7:45am - 4:00 pm Monday-Friday. I have some flexibility to leave early if need be. During lunch break, I use my Furbo camera to talk to my dog and launch a treat for him. I usually take my dog for a walk as soon as I get home from work. Weekends, I am typically home most the day. I have a ranch style single-family home that has a doggy door to a full turf and fully fenced back yard. I have the sweetest Golden Retriever that loves having other doggos come over. Warning: your pet will get lots of love and may not want to leave.
About: I have 3 pets of my own and no children. This gives me flexibility and freedom to accommodate customer needs. I have 2 senior pets and 1 that’s a bit of a wild child. I have raised the 2 older ones their whole life. I workout everyday and being able to incorporate others in that is great. I enjoy the outdoors and staying healthy. I’m big on structure and routine. I love and care for my pets beyond anything. The pets in my house are spoiled and have all natural treats and dentals daily. Pets are allowed to be on the couch and can have free range in the 7’ privacy fence.

I have experience in caring for dogs, cats, chickens, and some reptiles. I am off of work for a couple of months, so my availability is wide open! 7 days a week, morning or night would work. I live on an acreage, so our 3 dogs are on a wireless gps collar system. If your dog/s were to come to my yard, they would need to be somewhat collar-trained. At your house, I can walk dogs, play with your dogs in your yard, and hang out with them inside the house. For cats, I can play with them inside, and give them lots of company.

About: I’ve been helping take care of animals of all sizes since I was 5. I currently own 7 dogs; 2 English mastiffs -7 and 5 years old-, a 8 year old pit bull mix, a 5 year old presa mix, a 1 year old Tibetan mastiff mix, and a 7 month old German shepherd mix. I volunteered at an animal shelter for 4 years and assisted with taking care of dogs of all breeds as well as cats, guinea pigs, rats, ferrets, and hamsters. I have experience with big dog breeds like Great Pyrenees, English mastiff, and Newfoundland; as well as smaller breeds like corgis, jack Russell terriers, and Pomeranian. I will always treat your pets as if they are my own and give them lots of love and affection. I have a pretty flexible schedule and am almost always free on weekends. Let me know what you want and I will do everything I can to accommodate you and your pets. Please let me know if you are interested in any training for your dogs, as I run my own training business as well. I am self employed and have a very flexible schedule. I can change my schedule day to day and week to week, depending on what people need. I will follow whatever guidelines you have set for your pet. I am familiar with prong collars, e-collars, crate training, and leash training. I know every pet is different and you know your pets best.
About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life. When I was old enough, I had begged my mom to ask her friends if they needed dogs to be walked/watched. As I grew older, I began pet-sitting for more lovely people in my community, like teachers, friends, and even hairstylists. I also volunteer at King's Harvest Animal Shelter whenever I can. It makes me proud to know I can be trusted with the furry families of my loved ones. I work a part time job, so I still have lots of open availability for your babies. Being able to keep an eye on your pets is my priority, so days I am working I will not be available. (Unless you don’t need me until after my shift 😉 I do not currently offer boarding as I do live with other people. However, in your home, I will put your animals' comfort above all else. Every pet is different, so it's my job to learn what works best and give the best care for them.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for various pets, including my own two dogs—a Boxer and a Pit Bull. I played a key role in training them, ensuring they were well-behaved and happy.

My diverse experience and dedication to each pet's well-being set me apart, ensuring your furry friend receives top-notch care and attention. As a full-time college student with a flexible schedule, I can easily fit pet care into my daily or weekly routine. I'm available to work whenever needed or requested, ensuring your pets get the attention they deserve. I genuinely love working with dogs and have a natural ability to connect with them. My calm and patient demeanor helps me handle pets effectively, even when they don’t listen right away. With my own dogs, we’ve successfully trained them while maintaining patience and understanding. When caring for other dogs, I follow the owner's instructions carefully and handle any issues with a caring and attentive approach, ensuring your pets feel safe and loved. I understand as a dog owner myself that pets are also a member of the family and they need about the same care and attention as a human.

I focus on building trust with each dog, giving them the one-on-one attention they deserve. From playtime to gentle walks and administering medications when needed, my goal is to create a stress-free, happy environment so you can be confident your pet is in great hands. As a stay-at-home dog mom, I’m able to offer consistent, round-the-clock attention, with plenty of playtime, walks, and cuddles built right into my routine. My home is a pet-friendly space where dogs feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. Because I’m here throughout the day, I can easily adjust to each pet’s unique schedule and needs, whether it’s for feeding, exercise, or a quiet moment to relax. When pets are in my home, I provide a cozy, secure space where they’re treated like family. They have access to safe, pet-friendly areas for playing, resting, and exploring, along with daily exercise tailored to their energy level. I maintain a structured routine for feeding, walking, and playtime, ensuring they feel right at home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routines intact to provide comfort and familiarity. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special requests.

“Heather was absolutely wonderful about keeping us in the loop on how our dog was doing. We could tell from the pictures and messages she sent us that Mylo was doing just fine. It was our first time leaving him since we rescued him in September so we were nervous about it. We’ll definitely use Heather again when we need to go out of town.”

“Ashley and her husband were amazing. We drove to her home beforehand and she gave us a tour of her home. She kept me up to date with pictures of my pup through his stay and I could tell he was very well taken care of. We will definitely be hiring Ashley for all our pupsitting needs. Highly recommend her!”
