“JoAnne is amazing! She is so good with our dogs and they clearly have a great time there. She sent pictures every day and it really helped seeing how happy our dogs were. She was completely understanding when our flight got cancelled which made the whole ordeal a little better knowing our fur babies were in great hands. We will absolutely use JoAnne again.”
“I can’t speak highly enough about Shalyn, Joe, and their family. We went away for an extended period of time and were adamant about finding the perfect dog sitter for our girl Lucy, and that’s exactly what we found. From the moment they took her in, they made Lucy part of their family. Not to mention, she found a new best friend in their German Shepherd, Sadie. Every single day, I received photos and videos of them playing nonstop. It was incredibly heartwarming, and I couldn’t have been happier knowing Lucy was in such loving and capable hands. Just to put things in perspective, Shalyn, Joe, and family are about a 40 minute drive from our home, but they will always be our go to whenever we need care for Lucy. Thank you so much for everything. You are sincerely the best.”
“This is the 2nd time we’ve used Derek for watching our dog Tommy. He is very dependable and I’m really comfortable leaving my dog in his care. I love that he takes Tommy on walks, and he and his family all seem to really enjoy being part of it. We will continue to use him for caring for our dog.”
“Michelle was the best sitter we could ever dreamed of ! She has an amazing personality and a huge heart for dogs. That was a first time we left our Jax with the sitter, and he came back as happy as he can be , and even a little spoiled 😊. Michelle is very knowledgeable and detailed oriented, and she always follows your home routine. She treats every dog like her own , and gives them a lot of attention. The best sitter ever!”
“If you leave your dog with Carla, he or she is in good hands. Lots of play time and interaction. Carla goes above and beyond to communicate and cares for your pet as her own.”
“Carolyn was fantastic with our dog Ace during our 5 day long vacation! She sent daily photos and updates, followed his routine perfectly, gave him plenty of walks and playtime. Ace came home happy, tired, and clearly loved. We felt completely at ease the entire time. We’ll definitely book Carolyn again soon!”
“Cheryl took a really good care of peanut. He seemed happy. Cheryl sent us a picture and an update everyday and set our mind at ease about leaving Peanut behind. Thank you Cheryl”
“June is a fabulous calm and aware mother hen. I have an anxious 10 pound dog and she took very good care of her. She was worried about her. I knew my dog was doing well when I saw her tail up rather than between her legs. June sent beautiful photos of her relaxibg at her home. It was worth the hour drive to find someone as attentive and caring as June.”
“Very happy with your service Jessica! Macie wears a special tracking collar so we don't ever lose her. But we can see she must have had good walks and play time with 30k steps the first day she 31k the 2nd day. The only other time we boarded her was at a professional kennel where she had a max of 800 steps for one day. So huge difference. Thank you! The pics were greatly appreciated as well! Would definitely recommend you.”
“She's simply the best! Reliable, caring, and good at keeping in touch. Sending me photos daily and brief updates on what Sugar is doing. Thank you, Beth! You made taking this vacation a little easier knowing Sugar was in good hands.”
“Yaqi was amazing! She took great care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay. I felt very comfortable knowing my dog was in such good hands. Everything went smoothly, and my dog came back happy and well cared for. I truly appreciate her attention and kindness. Highly recommend!”
“Dunkin's first time with an over night boarding while his humans went away could not of been any better. After two introduction daycare visits to Jackie the day of his stay he could of not been any more comfortable. He actually ran into her house! Jackie's updates with me and pictures while I was gone put me at ease right away. Dunkin received the best of care while staying in a loving home environment. Dunkin for sure will be staying again. Thank you!”
“Leanne was wonderful with Ella! Ella loved having built in play buddies and lots of attention from Leanne. The communication was great and I felt confident my dog was well cared for during her stay. We will definitely use Leanne again!”
“I don't know where to start. They took care of our dog for 8 days and we were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying. I received daily updates with pictures, videos and kind words. They are wonderful! I would highly recommend Shauna & Peter’s family and I will use them again without doubt. Thank You!!”
“My two dogs are “at home” when they’re at Dickson’s. He’s got a great setup in his house and yard making the dogs feel comfy and allowing them to have a great time. The care and love he shows to them gives us peace of mind. They’re never stressed out when we pick them up. Thanks for everything Dickson!”
“Christine was terrific with Sparky. He is an older dog and she and her family were very patient with him and conscientious with his medication. I would definitely use her again.”

“Christine went above and beyond caring for our cats and home while we were away. It's never easy leaving your furry loved ones, but knowing they are in great hands gives me peace of mind.”
“Alyssa did a wonderful job house-sitting for our 2 cats! She spent a lot of time with them, stayed the nights with them, and took really great care of them! She would send us daily updates with lots of pictures and summaries of all the ways they played and what they did each day. It was such a relief during our vacation to know that our fur-babies were being well cared for while we were gone. Even our older, grumpier cat eventually warmed up to her! On top of all that, she did dishes, took out the trash, and picked up before she left. I think the house was cleaner when we got home than when we left! What a wonderful surprise to come home to! We'll definitely be using Alyssa again in the future :-D”
“Chloe did great with my cat, Ellie. She came over twice a day with no issues and fed, watered, and cleaned the litter area for Ellie when I was out of town for two weeks. The house looks spotless and Ellie appreciated the company. Highly recommended!”
“Jaime was fantastic. I always feel a little uneasy giving our house keys and garage/alarm codes to others but I didn't worry about it this time. She inspires trust and I felt that right away when we first met her. And believe all the reviews - Jaime does take amazing photos. She was able to take some great shots of our kitties! It was very comforting and reassuring to see all the photos while we were away. We will definitely be working with Jamie again.”
“Taylor was great with our cat while we were gone on a long trip. Lots of updates, pictures & videos and love for our kitty. Lovely person - we would def book with her again.”
“Carolyn was amazing! She went above and beyond, even taking thoughtful steps such as taking my trash can out for trash day despite me not requesting her to. She provided great photos and updates on my cats that really helped me to feel assured that they were in good hands while I was away. She even took the time to try and get my boys to come out of their shells a little! Would definitely recommend!!”
“Doug is conscientious and makes sure he knows exactly what is needed to look after my two cats. I have already booked Doug for a longer trip later this year and would recommend him to anyone.”
“Rachael was our first experience with Rover, and honestly so long as she’s on the platform I don’t see us booking with anyone else. Her updates were adorable, and you could immediately tell that she has a true love for the animals in her care and their individual needs. Do not hesitate!”
“Becca did a great job watching my cat—super responsive and easy to work with. Everything went smoothly, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again if I need a sitter. Highly recommend!”
About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by puppies, kittens, and all kinds of animals. I was there when my first dog gave birth and helped raise the puppies, learning how to train them along the way. This past year, I’ve cared for my senior dog when she had trouble walking and caregiving. I’ve also had the pleasure of walking and caring for dogs of all sizes for several families. With my lifelong experience with dogs and cats, I know exactly how to make sure your pet gets the best care! I currently have two dogs of my own and absolutely love spending time with them!! They are my babies I am available for pet care during the evenings and early mornings, and I’m also available on weekends (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) for dog walks or weekend dog sitting. I take care of pets in a cozy, safe space. I make sure they get their walks, playtime, and plenty of love. I stick to their feeding schedule and keep things clean—making sure they have their favorite toys around and giving them the love and attention that they need! When I’m at your place, I follow your pet’s routine to keep things as normal as possible—feeding, walks, playtime, and bathroom breaks. I’ll also make sure the place stays clean and tidy, and your pet gets all the attention they need while you’re away!
“We were so lucky to find Kaitlyn! She responded quickly and was able to take on the job with very short notice, which we really appreciated. From the start, her communication was incredible—she sent detailed updates every visit along with adorable photos and videos that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Not only did she take great care of our cats, but she also went above and beyond by bringing in our packages and even cleaning up without us asking. It’s rare to find someone so thoughtful and thorough. We’ll absolutely be using Kaitlyn again and couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Monica watched our cats for the first time last weekend and we are just delighted to have found her! She kept me posted on her visits with photos and helped with packages that had been delivered. We’re looking forward to the opportunity to have her visit again soon!”
“Ali has been a pleasure to work with! She is attentive, communicative, responsive, and has taken the best care of our beloved cat. Her updates have been above and beyond detailed and thoughtful. She has sent tons of adorable photos, and seems to really have bonded with our cat. We would love to work with her again! Thank you Ali!”

About: I am an animal lover, through and through. Dogs, cats, hedgehogs, birds… you name it. I treat my guest animals like my own and love on them as much as possible. I enjoy taking cute portraits of the pets in my care and I send lots of photos and written updates. I currently have a female Aussie/Pit mix, currently fostering a female Blue Doberman, and have had Doberman Pinschers in the past from puppies through old age until the rainbow bridge. I’m patient with puppies and elderly animals. I check to see which commands they know and how they have been trained to keep them consistent in my care, and have experience administering medications to them. Before joining Rover, I frequently dog and cat sat for friends and family. I am currently fully remote and based at home. I have a lot of flexibility to accommodate your pet’s schedule and needs. My schedule may change in the future but I will update my info when that happens. I have one female 7 year old Aussie/Pit Mix and one 2 year old foster female Doberman. I have a spare bedroom to host guests with their crates and belongings but during the day they are with me, within line of sight in my home. My yard is fenced (4ft) and only two steps to the yard from the door. There are no children living in my home. I live is a quiet neighborhood and can go for walks as needed.
“Danielle is AWESOME!! Roxy had a great time with her and her dogs and kids are amazing! She sent me photos during the day and let me know how Roxy was doing. She takes her for nice walks and gets plenty of exercise and fun. I'm super happy with the care Roxy gets at her house. Thanks!”

She was very friendly to Ozzie and Winston and when I came to pick them up later in the evening, she had them all ready to go. They seemed very comfortable at her house. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.”

About: I have been an animal lover my entire life and shown it in the care I give. I started my pet care experience at 14 by watching family members' pets, as well as my mother's coworkers' animals. From there, I expanded into word-of-mouth clients from friends, and finally opened up a Rover account when I entered my 20s. I treat all pets I care for like my own, and have experience with several animals, including dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles, small mammals, and even horses. I love learning and continue to expand my knowledge for caring for animals by researching and taking classes where I can. I currently work full time, which is Monday through Thursday from 9:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. and Saturday from 10:00 A.M. to 2:00 P.M. I am always willing to work things into my schedule, so please contact me to do so. I love when owners leave me notes regarding their pets care and little trick and habits that will help the pets feel more comfortable. I ensure safety and care to any pets I sit or walk.
About: I grew up with animals starting out with hamsters and guinea pigs. Currently have a small Bichon Frise dog who always needs love and attention. I love going on walks, especially with a companion:) I am currently a college student taking online classes Monday through Thursday, however, I can be flexible with my schedule so don’t hesitate to reach out to take care of your pets:) I can always make time to help out <3 For my own dog I always make sure she has food and water at all times. Letting her outside whenever she wants in order to get some fresh air and then going on walks with her twice a day is part of our routine. She is not one to play, but still loves being silly and having the zoomies. In those energetic moments I always join her. Then at the end of the day everyone deserves a treat and so does she:)
