“Grace is AMAZING! She has a very sweet personality and made me and our dog feel right at home. This was Gideon’s first time to stay in someone else’s home.

I could not say enough good things about her and highly recommend her to any dog parent looking for someone to take care of their dog when they are away.”
“Sharon was absolutely fantastic with our goldendoodle! This was our first time using Rover and the experience couldn't have gone any better. Sharon eased our worries with consistent communication, daily photos and videos. She promptly replied to our messages and questions.

Thank you Sharon for ensuring our baby was happy. We will definitely be boarding Beau with you in the future!”

“Tara did a great job checking in on my cat, Charlie. She showed up when she said she would, provided summaries of her visits, and included several pictures with every visit. She also mixed my cat’s medicine in with his food as instructed and left all the containers rinsed and stacked neatly in the sink. I would definitely book with her again in the future.”
“Kaitlin is wonderful! She has watched our cat many times now. Our cat loves Kaitlin and so do we. Kaitlin has brought our mail in, put our trash out and watered our flowers also. We will always choose Kaitlin to watch our pets. She is super reliable and always available when we need her.”
“Ciara was awesome. I felt comfortable overseas knowing Freya was in good hands. Ciara took care of everything and even developed a bond with Freya. I'd be excited to use Ciara again in the future.”
“Bayley did a great job taking care of our cats while we were out of town! She followed all the instructions on our guide, sent proof-of-life pictures on every drop-in, and consistently communicated about the timing of her visits. It was such a relief to know our fur babies were in good hands so we could enjoy our trip :)”
“Desiree was approachable, kind hearted, responsive, and accountable. I could tell she wanted to care for my dog to the best of her abilities by the questions she asked. She wanted to not just care for my pet, but be respectful of my home. Highly recommend!”
“Eleanor was great, reliable, and took very good care of our cat. She kept us informed every time and sent lots of photos. Eleanor went above and beyond! We are very grateful.”
“This was my second time booking with Lauran, and once again she was absolutely wonderful! Having someone I can trust with my two cats gives me so much peace of mind while we're away. She kept me updated with photos and messages, made sure my cats were well cared for, and even managed to earn the trust of my very shy cat, which says a lot! It's clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after and goes above and beyond to make sure they're comfortable. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”
“Mary went above and beyond to care for our cat. Our cat is very skiddish around new people, but Mary took her time to be patient and let Callie warm up to her. We really appreciated her thoroughness and reliability. Followed all instructions to a tee and provided great daily updates. Highly recommend booking Mary!”
“Didn't even think to ask for pictures but she took multiple good ones which is always good for reassurance. It was my first time using her and rover but will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“William did a great job with my two cats! Communication was very good and easy, and my kitties seemed to really like him immediately! I will absolutely rebook.”
“Breanna was absolutely wonderful with Cooper. She sent great pictures throughout the stay — Cooper looked happy, relaxed, and clearly loved spending time with her. She was always on time for walks and kept me updated without me ever needing to ask. Scheduling with her was easy and stress‑free, and she spent real quality time with Cooper, not just quick check‑ins. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Breanna for anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.”
“Jenna saved the day on very short notice. She arrived right on time and my girls seemed to like her. This was only her first visit but she seems very reliable. I would definitely book with her again.”
“Jen was tremendous. She was highly communicative and timely. My cat appreciated the love and pets, and I appreciated knowing that he was being well cared for.”
About: I've been surrounded by cats since I was a little girl. We had two cats, Sanchez and Diego, in my childhood home, and barn cats in the stable where I took lessons. When I turned nine, we adopted my kitty Sirius, and Macbeth came a few years later. I don't mind to get down with a litter box, and have administered flea medications in every form. I'm happy to play, snuggle, or sit in silence with your baby!
“Phoebe took wonderful care of my cats and was ready to help when they had health issues. She was very understanding when I had flight delays from a snowstorm and kindly extended their boarding. She is very pleasant to communicate with and responds very quickly. Highly recommended!”
“Missy was wonderful! This was my first Rover experience and I was very nervous with my cats needing medication twice daily but Missy was on time and great with communicating. I really appreciated the cute pictures she sent with each visit and I would definitely schedule with her again!”

Catherine really is great at what she does and I would not hesitate to use her again.”

About: Hi! I’m a college student with a lifetime full of animal experience! I’ve grown up in a home full of various different types of animals and have loved caring for pets for as long as I can remember! Over the years, I’ve owned many dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, ferrets, turtles, and even rats, so I’m very confident in my comfort around all sorts of personalities and routines. On top of that, I’ve cared for family, friends, and neighbors pets for half a decade, whether that meant walking dogs, drop in visits, feeding medication when needed, or overnight care. Not only do I also have experience with this app, I volunteered at the Kentucky Humane Society shelters occasionally throughout high school. As a college student who’s home for the summer, I’m extremely reliable and very flexible with schedules and last minute bookings! I know every pet has their own routine so I always make sure to follow all care instructions closely and provide plenty of updates and photos throughout each visit. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable, cared for, and loved until you’re home again 💕 I’m currently a college student who’s spending summer break at home so my schedule is pretty much open and flexible for all service requests! I’d love nothing more than to spend my summer watching and taking care of your pets! I have a spacious and fenced backyard, perfect for your pet to roam around and play! I also have a large crate, numerous dog toys and treats that can be provided if needed :)
About: I’ve always been the one friends and family when they need someone to love and care for their pets—and I wouldn’t have it any other way! Spending time with animals is something that genuinely makes me happy. I currently don’t have a dog of my own, which means I have plenty of extra love, attention, and energy to give to yours. Lots of Free Time, with a Flexible Schedule I work part-time, which gives me the best of both worlds—structure and plenty of free time. My flexible schedule allows me to be available for your pup throughout the day, during evenings, and even at those odd or last-minute hours. Whether you need regular walks, drop-ins, or overnight care, I have the time and commitment to make sure your dog feels cared for and never rushed. My Care Style Your dog’s comfort and happiness always come first. When they’re with me, they’re treated like part of the family—lots of cuddles, playtime, and attention included. I’m happy to follow your routines and preferences so your pup feels right at home, no matter where they are. Special Requests Every dog has their own quirks, routines, and favorite things. Please share any special requests or details about your dog ahead of time—I love learning what makes each pet unique and will do my best to keep their days feeling familiar and full of love. I’m currently working part time with a very flexible schedule so I will have plenty of time to care for your pup even at the odd hours. With my flexible schedule you can rely on me to be there even in the tight times. Your fur baby will get plenty of love in my home between me and my friendly cat, Ambrose. I will usually let them roam free around the apartment and on my furniture unless otherwise noted. Basically, you tell me what it is you need from me at my home or yours and I will make it happen.
About: Hi! I cannot wait to get to know your pet! Learning their routines, behaviors, and boundaries helps me ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. Making sure you return to exercised, well behaved, and happy pets is the always the priority. During inclement weather, I provide safe outdoor potty breaks, with indoor play like puzzles and scavenger hunts. Ensuring they're still getting to work out their energy and your money is well spent. I'm happy to help figure out which service is best for you and your pet. Please reach out with any questions. And I'm happy to set up a meet and greet so that I'm available to help out at a moments notice. I make my living providing pet care and housekeeping. Remember sleep away camp when you were a kid? Or that one really cool babysitter? That's what your pet's time with me will be like. Your vacation is also their vacation. Whether at your home or my own, walks, or drop-in visits, I provide regular updates and so many cute photos to help assure that they're in good hands. My home has a large, fenced in backyard for all the desired romps and squirrel chasing. I live in a beautiful, easily walkable neighborhood; which is great for multiple daily adventures, stopping to smell all the smells and learn safe social skills. Whether at my home or your own, I'd like to know what your pet's current routines are, and any anxieties you or they might have. I appreciate the trust and responsibility I've been given while taking care of your loved ones and home.
About: In undergrad I spent my summers working as a dog groomer. Now, as a medical student I am home studying every day, looking to provide day-to-day care to your precious babies. My apartment is pet friendly and I offer dog walking services as well as over night boarding. I ask that you provide food/necessary supplies- working as a groomer I know some angels have sensitive stomachs and require special diets. Accommodating this is no issue for me :) I am mostly inside my apartment studying. It would be no issue to board for a prolonged period of time or take breaks to go on walks. I ensure there is no access to trash, or food for curious pets. I also live in a non-smoking household. I do not provide my own supplies or cage.
“Myrna is amazing! I can tell she really cares for the animals as much as I do. I HIGHLY recommend her if you can get her. Her space is great for our family additions.”
“Our dog loves going to Emily & Pedro’s!!!! He is always running up to their door every time we come over. Always super responsive and send lots of updates and videos.”
About: I have experience fostering for the humane society. I have a German shepherd at home and used to own a Siberian husky. I have fostered both puppies and kittens I work from home full-time so I can give your pet plenty of potty breaks and give them a walk on my lunch if needed I have a fenced in yard that your dog can play in. I also live close to a park that we can go to. I have a friendly German shepherd who likes to play with other dogs. I will treat your pet like they are my own and let them make themselves at home.
“Sarah and family greeted Lucy at the door. She happily ran off following the kids for a fun evening! She loves kids! Sarah was easy to work with our uncertain time frame! E McCoy and Lucy”

“Sarah has been with our Perry every day for 3 months now and we do not know what we would do without her. She goes above and beyond for him! You can really tell how much she loves dogs and how Perry has become special to her. She is extremely reliable, consistent, communicative. I wouldn’t trust anyone else for Perry’s daily walks and I’m so glad we found her!”
About: I’ve had animals all my life! From energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra TLC. I've been pet sitting since I could drive, and caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Whether it’s daily walks, cuddle time, or keeping up with special diets or meds, I treat every pet like family. I have experience with dogs of all ages, including senior care. I'm reliable, attentive, and truly love what I do! Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities. As a student, I have a flexible schedule that works great for pet care. Mornings, evenings, and weekends are my most available times, but I can also include pet care during breaks in my day if we schedule in advance. Whether your pet needs a walk, some playtime, or overnight care, I’m happy to work around your routine to make sure they’re happy and well cared for. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with plenty of space for your furry friend to relax and feel at home. I love taking pets to nearby parks and nature trails for safe, fun walks and fresh air. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, loving environment where they feel secure. I always follow any specific routines, feeding instructions, and safety guidelines to ensure your pet is happy, healthy, and well looked after.
“Sam is always such a delight to work with. She’s flexible, communicative and so sweet. Scooter always seems to have such a good time with her!! She’s present and trustworthy as well.”
About: I’ve owned fur babies my entire life and have recently began caring for my friends and families fur babies when they need help. I’ll treat your fur babies as my own which means spending ample time with them playing or snuggling, keeping them on a consistent schedule, and making sure they never feel alone or sad whether you’re gone for a few hours or a few days! Fur babies make the world go round and deserve to be treated as such! I am currently working very part-time so I have plenty of time to spend with your sweet babies. My availability varies from week to week a little bit but for the most part I’m able to make my own schedule, it’ll just be the occasional weeks that it doesn’t mirror my typical availability! I will be extremely careful to follow all instructions on keeping them safe in your home and making sure they feel comfortable with me as well!
About: I've been surrounded by critters since I was a little girl - from fish to foster puppies, reptiles, rats, bunnies, dogs, cats, and everything in between. Basically, you name it, I've hugged it. In the past year, I've started dog sitting regularly for several families in my hometown of Louisville, as well as in South Hadley, where I go to school. I love spending time with animals and look forward to getting to know yours! I'm a student in Richmond for the summer with a flexible schedule - I have plenty of free time all day, every day, and would love to spend my free time with your critters! I know all pets have unique needs, and am always willing to adhere to what you feel is best - whether that means six walks a day, regular litter box cleanings, or three-hour playtimes. I will always leave your house clean and make sure that your pet has all of their needs (and more) taken care of.
About: I've taken care of many dogs since I was a child. I have two dogs and two cats of my own and I've taken care of my neighbors pets. I have a flexible schedule as I'm working on a portfolio to be a tattoo artist and I will be available as much as possible. I'm a reliable conscientious person who has a great love for animals. I care about safety above all else and will do everything in my power to make your pet feel happy and loved.
“We were so happy with Maggie‘s dog walk. She left a lot of great information regarding the walk and was very professional. Overall would definitely recommend”
“Eleanor is a staple of my Zeke dog’s care team. She has been walking him every week for over a year (and clearly demonstrates patience with me). Eleanor is dedicated, reliable, communicative and repeatedly steps up to help as her schedule allows. Eleanor provides invaluable care and I’m happy for those reading this to have found her!”

“Emily was very conscientious about filling in her ROVER card, taking photos and filling me in with details. I could tell she really cares about my pet. I will definitely use her again!”
About: I've been petsitting ever since I was younger and grew up around dogs my whole life. I don't have any special skills but offer a lot of love as a current dental student who can't have their own pet currently. I am currently a student with a busier schedule now that I am in clinic. On a case by case basis I may be available during the week if I do not have to see a patient. Most weekends I am available though! I am very flexible with care, each family and home has their own requirements about how their pet is cared for. I love taking dogs on walks, playing with them in the backyard, or even just cuddling with your pet on the couch together while I work on some homework!
About: My wife and I have been married over 20 years and 17 of those have been with multiple dogs in our house. We are dog-less at the moment, but would love to give your dog the love we have all of ours for so many years. I work full time from home and my wife is a professor, so we have a lot of time at home. Our son is 2, and absolutely adores dogs Whatever the owner needs us to do for the dog, we are happy to. Snuggles, walks, potty and regular feeding schedule is always on the docket
“Jen is not only the best, most reliable dog walker we have ever used, but also the most trustworthy person we've ever employed to do any kind of work in our household. It helps immensely that she is both energetic and calming. Our rambunctious big boy retriever is always super mellow after each outing with Jen. I wish we'd known of her several dogs ago!”
About: I've been surrounded by dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, turtles, frogs and fish for 35+ years. I've raised, house-trained, walked, entertained and loved a variety of dogs and cats my entire life. I never get tired of these sweet creatures! I have experience with all dogs and cats, regardless of age, breed or temperament. As I'm now only working part-time providing early intervention services for children, and am self-employed, I have a great deal of flexibility to care for your dogs and cats. I'm available for drop-ins to feed, play with and care for your sweet pets as needed - throughout the day and night - as well as dog-walking, as it fits into your schedule. I've spent the last 20+ years working as a teacher and developmental therapist, educating children who have developmental delays and disabilities. Now, I've decided to focus additionally on my love of animals. Since I was a small child, I've adored pets, and have many years of experience caring for a variety of them. I'm very patient and appreciative of each animal's personality. I currently have 3 dogs and 3 cats of my own, and have used this service as a customer as well, so I can understand your point of view as "parents".
