“Amy was awesome!! My dogs enjoyed her family so much. All the basics were met as indicated in daily pictures. But in addition my pups were showered with love and attention from the minute they arrived to the minute we left. Taz and Darby got along great with Amy’s dog Mayzie and now they have a new friend. I will definitely book with Amy again. The care she gave my pups put me at ease while on vacation!👍”

Truly grateful for the wonderful care they provided.”
“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!❤️”

“We couldn’t be happier with Kristin as our dog’s pet sitter! This was their second stay with her, and when we knew we were going out of town, there was no question—Kristin is the one we wanted to care for them again. She is incredibly attentive and caring, always making sure they’re comfortable and happy. We loved the regular updates she sent throughout the day; it’s clear how much she loves animals and how dedicated she is to providing them with the best care. Highly recommend Kristin to anyone looking for a reliable, loving pet sitter.”
“Karyn was absolutely terrific. My puppy was extremely comfortable with her. Karyn treated him as if he was hers. Sent many pictures and kept me informed about Fitzy several times a day. She has a great fenced in yard which gave my dog freedom to run. Fitzy and her dog got along well. Would highly recommend her. Can’t say enough of good things about this experience.”

About: Coastal Maine dog daycare manager turned Palmer pet sitter 🦞🐾 Hi! I’m Mia. I have 5+ years of professional experience working as an assistant manager at a busy dog daycare & boarding facility in Maine, along with several years of private dog walking and pet sitting experience. Caring for dogs has become my full-time passion, and I love getting to know each pup’s unique personality and routine. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments and I’m comfortable with structured routines, medications, leash handling, feeding schedules, multi dog households, and dogs with different energy levels or personalities. Drop-in Visits: a 30 minute visit for potty breaks, playtime, feeding & lots of love 🫶🏻 Walks: a 30 or 60 minute neighborhood walk tailored to your dogs energy level and routine 🦮 Adventure Walks: an extended outing to local trails, parks, or other dog friendly spots for extra exercise and enrichment 🐾 Pet Sitting: Your pup gets to stay cozy at home while receiving loving one-on-one care. Overnight stays include evening and morning routines, potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of companionship while you’re away. 🏠 I treat every dog like they’re my own and always aim to provide reliable, personalized care that keeps both pets and owners comfortable and happy. Pet care is my full time job! I currently offer dog walks, drop-in visits, puppy visits, and selective overnight care throughout the week. My schedule allows me to provide reliable care, regular potty breaks, exercise, and lots of attention while making sure each pet stays on their normal routine as much as possible! Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and needs so they can feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible while you’re away. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are being well cared for.
“Sounds like Kai has a new friend. Thanks for accommodating the earlier start time. Let me know if you have success with her not jumping. It’s her love language but most people don’t care for it. Hoping as she gets more accustomed to her new home, she’ll be able to stay home ithiut the crate but not yet.”
“This is the first time we’ve ever had an outside person come to our home to care for our pup and it was nothing but a positive experience. From the meet and greet to the drop-in, Kage exceeded our expectations. His kindness and professionalism impressed us; he followed all of our instructions to a T, (our dog is under a medical protocol and needed special care) and his update at the end of the drop-in was very reassuring, detailed and thoughtful. We will not hesitate to have him come back to take care of Josie!”
“Hiring Ashley to care for our pets while we were away was a great decision! She went above and beyond with our pets and home. Our cat can be a bit spicy at times but Ashley handled him well and enjoyed time with him. Thank you!!”
“Five stars isn’t enough. Our cat Felix absolutely fell in love with Eryn. He was relaxed, happy, and clearly adored while we were away. We got great updates, thoughtful care, and came home to a very content boy. Truly exceptional experience — we’ll be booking again without hesitation.”
“We are so happy to have chosen Alexis to take care of our very loved cat while we were away. Not only does Alexis have experience and a genuine love for cats, she is also reliable, responsible and communicates daily leaving us feeling very comfortable while away. We highly recommend her knowing that she provides outstanding care !”
“Alissa has now had a few drop in visits for my two poodles. Everything has been great with her service. She has been friendly with prompt communication and detailed reports. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her for your pet sitting needs!”
“Ace was so amazingly flexible and helpful during a long trip away from home. We booked her originally to care for our cats while we were away for a holiday trip, but when a family emergency came up and we needed to leave early she was able to add more dates to the booking and was right there sending updates and cute photos from home-lifting our mood during a difficult time. Our cats were in great spirits when we returned, and she went above and beyond straightening up their messy litter boxes-so our home felt well cared for as well. Can’t say enough great things about Ace. She’s a treasure and truly a caring person who loves animals.”
About: Currently my house contains 2 black cats with big personalities! I have experience administering all kinds of medications and special needs. Cats are special and all unique and deserve to be given the care they deserve!
“I highly recommend Lila. She did an amazing job with my three cats. She is very diligent and honest. Gustav needs a pill and she was able to give him that. Betty is very timid but she went to Lila. Lila kept me updated with texts and photos everyday. She went above and beyond. I look forward to having Lila take care of my fur babies whenever I travel!”

“Thank you Forough and Amir! We were nervous at first how Russell would do and how he would get along with other dogs, so we were so relieved to hear that he fit right in! We would definitely feel comfortable leaving him with Forough and Amir again and look forward to scheduling another visit!”
“We found ourselves in Mexico with no one to watch our dog on our return day. We could have called a few different friends to let our dog out a few times but no one could take him from 8:30am-9:30pm. We were hesitant to book someone we’d never met before but finally just did it. What an incredible experience. Received photos and videos all day. Thank you SO much for treating Porter like one of your own!”
“We have loved working with Tricia! Very flexible, understanding, and affordable. She went the extra mile for our senior dog. Can’t wait to book the next visit for our dog!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Karen. She watched my 9 week old puppy and provided me with updates. Karen was also flexible. I had to change my drop-off and pick-up time during one of the days that she watched my puppy; and Karen made it work for me. I's super thankful.”
“Keith and Ashley were both extremely kind, informative and accommodating. This was my first time using Rover so I was grateful to find someone who could talk me through the process. Their questions on his care were very thoughtful and showed Keith and Ashley truly care about the animals that will be in their home. I had no worries leaving my dog with them, and he was wagging his tail as soon as I pulled up to their house for his second visit!”
“Zulma was absolutely wonderful! She took the time to allow Russell to get acquainted with his surroundings and safely meet her dog, Luna, who was a great teacher and playmate for him. We were so impressed by her understanding of dog behavior and especially her insight into Russell’s behavior and skin condition. We feel very comfortable and confident leaving Russell in her care, and we would highly recommend her!”

I got constant updates, and my dog was super happy and excited to see angie each morning! Highly recommend!”

“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.”

“Paul has been a great asset to getting the stimulation my German shepherd was bred to need! Both of my dogs respond so well to him.

Both my dogs have struggled with reactivity - but have had no issues with him.”

“Heather sent photos every day and videos so I knew my dogs were enjoying themselves. Beautiful fenced in yard made play time fun and safe. Quick communication, easy drop up, and willing to change pick up time. I would recommend her for all dog parents!”
“First time using Rover and had a great experience with Keith & Ashley. Had last minute travel plans come up and they were very accommodating and kept me updated and in the loop all weekend. My dog is anxious and has some separation anxiety and they made him feel right at home.”
About: My children and I absolutely love dogs, especially my 8 year old son. I work in the school system so we have the whole summer off to enjoy taking care of your pets! I live seconds from a walking trail so your pup can get plenty of exercise, love, and snuggles! I am available all summer long while school is out. July 1 through the end of August. I spend a few weeks teaching summer school- on those days I am home by 1 pm. Your pet will be safely cared for in my two bedroom apartment- with lots of snuggles, nature walks, and toys. I understand different dogs have different needs and I will cater to each pup as needed.
“Patti took such good care of my dag Angela Merkel. Mrs. Merkel played and want on walks daily maher feel part of family. I recommend everyone to you Patti does exactly what you tell her to do. I received daily piv”
“This is really our first experience learning Pepper with someone. Of course I was not sure how it will go and was a bit worried. But, Megan made it much much easier with her kindness on updates and sending pictures of Pepper. That was so nice. Thank you Megan! Overall a service I will use again and will recommend!”
“Katie took exceptional care of our golden retriever. She gave updates on how he was doing throughout the stay and asked great questions about how she could make him feel right at home. Excellent communication but most importantly a great family that treated our dog like their own. 5 stars!! Highly recommend!!”
“So happy I found Mallory! She is such a sweetheart and gives us great relief knowing we are leaving Bratwurst with someone who will show him love and care while we are away. She sends us pictures and videos of him which is great to see how he is while he is there. He always knows when we get to her house and his tail starts wagging!! We really appreciate all she does for him. Thank you so much!”
“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”
“Allison was great to work with from our first contact with her – super responsive and organized. Our dog has a very specific medication schedule that Allison was able to accommodate, and we really appreciated the care she took in setting that up. We got updates while we were away, with pictures of our little guy enjoying lots of attention from the whole family! It was a great experience, and we have already booked a return stay. We would definitely recommend Allison.”
