“If you are looking for someone who will truly love your dog while you're away, look no further than Barb. She provided such peace of mind during our recent trip by sending daily photos and updates. Our dog seemed so comfortable in her home, and he was his usual relaxed self when he got back to us. Barb’s kindness is evident, and we are so grateful for the way she welcomed him into her home.”

“Marissa took very good care of Conan, who is a bit anxious. He even did well with Marissa's dog, which she did in a controlled and easy way, which we loved because he needs some positive socialization. She took him for walks, and kept us informed, sending texts and pics. Would definitely recommend and use her again!”

“I recently had the pleasure of entrusting Robert and his family to watch over my dog Simba, and I couldn't be more delighted with the care and attention he received. From start to finish, this dog sitting experience was nothing short of exceptional. Throughout my dog's stay, I received regular updates with photos from, which put my mind at ease and allowed me to enjoy my time away knowing that my dog was in great hands. I could see from the pictures that my dog was enjoying himself during his stay. In addition to his exceptional care, Robert is an excellent communicator, and was always prompt in responding to any questions or concerns I had. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a dog sitter. He provided a loving and safe environment for my dog, and I will not hesitate to book Rover services again in the future with him. Thank you so much Robert, for taking such wonderful care of Simba and making him feel at home.”

“Guillermo is fantastic. He was attentive to our old pup and wonderfully responsive to us. He is kind and calm, and it was clear our dog felt so comfortable and content. Our dog had an upset stomach and Guillermo was gracious and amazing at taking the extra steps to give him canned food and medicine. He sent great updates and pictures, I wish I had found him sooner and look forward to having him care for our dog again.”
“Tyler and Meichen were awesome with Milo! They kept sending us pictures, took him for multiple walks and it was clear he was super happy and having a great time. They really took great care of him, and we felt so at ease knowing he was in good hands. I’d totally recommend them to anyone looking for dog sitters—they’re the best!”

“Mayra was very lovely to work with and was SUPER flexible and accommodating. I was kind of a pain in the butt given all my schedule changes 😂. But she was more than happy to accommodate with watching Kira. Took a load of stress off knowing my pup was in good hands and i didnt have to worry. She also provided tons of pictures and kept me up to date on how she was doing. Definitely recommend her to anyone!”

About: I’ve had cats since I was 8 years old. With the 16 years of experience with cats, I believe that you can tell a lot about a person by their cats personality. Like with every pet parent, I strive for the best with my cat. If you choose me to watch your cat, I will provide the best and safest environment for them. Do they need a room to themselves? You got it. Has explosive diarrhea? I have cleaning supplies. Medical issues? Another way to keep me on my toes. I hope you consider me as a prospective aunt to your kitter cat and can’t wait to fill up my camera role with adorable pictures. I look forward to hearing from you 💕
“Ilana was an amazing cat sitter to our two cats. One of them required medical attention unexpectedly and she was so supportive and communicated with us every step of the way. She went above and beyond, even gathering extra supplies as the cats needs changed. Our family was so grateful that we had such great cat care while we were traveling internationally.”
“I’ve had Sandra looking after my senior cats a couple of times now and have been very happy! She is careful, responsive, and cares about the health and safety of my cats. With Sandra’s help when I come home from a trip my cats are calm, cared for and happy to see me. No sign of them being mad!! I’ll be happy to book Sandra every time I go out of town.”
“Very impressed with Kathleen’s work ethics, diligence and care. She did exactly what was expected of her, was responsive and caring, and my cat adopted her. I am looking forward to working with her in the future and have already booked her services for our upcoming trips. Cannot recommend her enough!”
“We are so grateful for Taylor’s service! Our fur babies were so happy and comfortable with her. We most definitely will book again. Thank you for your time and taking such great care of Lindy and Juju.”
“Carol was wonderful! We set up a meet and greet so we both felt comfortable in advance. She kept me updated while I was away from Stevie. Could ask for better care!”
“Sue is so great with our timid kitty. She takes a while to warm up to people, but Sue has the magic touch! She has cat sit for us several times, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provides.”
“Michelle is amazing!! She looked after our two cats for a week and was so good to them. They can be anxious when we’re away and Michelle was very caring and attentive to their needs. She was also highly communicative from the moment we first got in touch and throughout our time away, sending us detailed updates and lots of pics and videos of the cats, so we never had to worry. She went out of her way to spend lots of time with them and take care of things around the house that we didn’t even ask her to! We really appreciate her doing such a thoughtful and thorough job, and look forward to hiring her again. Highly recommend!”
“Stephanie was so great and I highly recommend her! She was very communicative and had great attention to detail. I felt very comfortable knowing she was taking great care of my cats while I was away. I particularly appreciated her patience with them as they were getting settled into a new space and how she was ver attentive to their needs!”
“Olivia left thoughtful and detailed messages during her visits with my cat, which helped put me at ease when I was away from her for the first time. I had no idea my cat would hiss, and Olivia managed to handle it well. She even got toys out for JoJo when I forgot to put them out.”
“Alyson was amazing - I loved getting a blurb about how my two cats were doing, along with some wonderful pictures! My two cats warmed up to Alyson very quickly - a testament to her authenticity as one can be very skittish. We will definitely use Alyson in the future for any pet sitting needs!”
“Did a great job making sure our three cats were taken care of and fed while we were away! Would definitely recommend her if you need help with your fur babies and we would definitely rebook her services in the future if she is available!”
“Yick-hong was wonderful with my two cats. He sent pics every day, paid attention to food running low or the cats seeming extra hungry, and even updated me via text when the Rover report card wasn't working. I felt at ease leaving my cats under his care for a week, and will definitely book him again.”
“Royce did such a great job with my kitty. She was very accommodating on the meet and greet. She also made sure to send photos and give him lots of attention during her drop in. Thank you!”

“Yi W. Was very responsive and took great care of Duke. She was also very open to my guidance about Duke’s needs and routine. She sent regular updates and photos. I recommend her and will take Duke back to her.”
“We had a last-minute emergency when our original sitter had to cancel, and Sean truly came to the rescue. We reached out on Thursday, and he kindly agreed to take Gianni for Saturday. He got us out of a real bind, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Thanks to him we didn't have to cancel our trip. Sean took incredible care of Gianni. He went on hikes, played all day with Sean’s dogs in the yard, and came home tired and happy. Sean was so kind, communicative, and very accommodating. Honestly, we wish he lived closer so he could be our regular sitter. The only downside is that I think my dog was a little disappointed to come back home! lol We highly recommend Sean 10/10. I cannot explain how much we appreciate him for taking such great care of Gianni.”
“I’ve known Junho and his adorable dog Boki since Boki was just a tiny three-month-old puppy, back when we first met in our apartment building. Over the years, I’ve seen how much care Junho gives to Boki, and how gentle and kind he is with other dogs he meets on their walks. When Junho started Rover, I knew right away that I could trust him with T-Rex. My dog requires extra care and attention due to specific conditions, and Junho followed all of my instructions thoroughly. He even sent me multiple photos and updates without me having to ask, which gave me so much peace of mind. If you’re looking for a sitter, I highly recommend Junho. He’s easy to work with, and his wonderful dog Boki will make a great companion for yours. Boki is super friendly and loves to play, but also knows how to give space if another dog isn’t in the mood.”
“I just moved back to the area and I've taken my very active 1-yo dog to Ismael's house for the last several days and it's been great! Ismael and his wife are friendly, respond very quickly to texts, send photos, and in general have made life so much easier for me. My puppy and I are thankful we found them!”
“Daisy had a great day with Stef! Stef met with us in advance to meet Daisy and learn about her daily routine and requirements. She made it very easy to drop Daisy off and pick her up and also sent a few pictures during the day. Stef took her out for three walks, one of them was a car ride away from Stef's home which was an adventure for Daisy. It was almost hard to get Daisy into the car as she didn't want to leave. Daisy was so tired that night and into the next day, but was very happy. We are looking forward to having Stef take care of her again!”
“We were nervous about leaving our dog with anyone but David and Betsy made us feel so welcome and we completely trusted them! We dropped jade off that morning and she was the happiest dog when we picked her up! We are so glad that we used David and Betsy and will definitely be using them for future endeavors!”
“Yulia and her family are caring and considerate. Sheila, their 8 year old corgie was very cute and friendly too! Peppercorn loved staying with her and playing with her elementary school aged children.”
About: I have had dogs almost my entire life. I have been pet sitting on dog vacay and rover for the last several years , before my dog Dora passed away two years when she was 14 years of age. I stopped pet sitting , and was grieving for a while. I am now ready to get back to dog sitting , and want to experience joy of pets again, even if on a temporary basis. I have two children , 8 and 4, and they have been exposed to dogs and cats until recently . We want to have a chance to play with doggies again, and love them! At the moment I am unemployed, and home with my 4 year old. A dog would easily fit in our daily routine, as the dog parents require. I live in a condo association, on the third floor. I do not have a yard, but I will be able to walk your doggie.
About: Hi! I’m Dylan, and I’ve always had a soft spot for animals. I’ve cared for the pets of friends and family over the years, so I’m comfortable around different personalities, routines, and needs. I’ve also had pets of my own, including a dog, and I’d love to have a dog of my own again someday. Until then, I’m excited to give your pets plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and care! I’m dependable, attentive, and respectful of each pet’s individual routine. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, so my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether that means a long walk, some playtime, keeping them company, or simply giving them a quiet place to relax, I’m happy to meet them where they’re most comfortable. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure you feel confident knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾 I currently have a flexible schedule while I’m searching for a job, so I have plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, and spending time with pets. I’m able to work pet care into my weekly routine while giving each pet the attention they deserve. Once I start a new job, I’ll make sure my availability stays up to date and only take bookings I can fully commit to. I focus on making pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any specific routines or preferences their pet has. I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean and comfortable space, and plenty of attention and enrichment. I’m also happy to spend extra time playing, giving cuddles, or simply keeping a pet company if that’s what they enjoy. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality and let them set the pace. Most importantly, I treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own.
“I usually book Michelle for walks, but I needed someone to watch my dog for the day while I dealt with doctor stuff. I don't drive, so it was amazing that she could pick him up for me. She arrived on time and was very communicative, took lots of photos and loved on my dog plenty, walking him and throwing toys. I am so happy with the service I got today.”
About: My strength lies in my deep love for dogs and my genuine dedication to their well-being. I provide attentive and affectionate care, ensuring each dog feels loved and comfortable in my presence I am available Monday to Thursday from 5 to 8 PM I am also available Friday, from 5 to 11 PM & I am available anytime Saturday & Sunday. When I drop by to check on the dogs, I make sure they're safe, happy, and fed. I keep the owners posted and aim to keep those tails wagging!
“My pup had the best time ever in the yard, chilling in the house, and befriending Betsy’s sweet dog. I even got a photo during the day. :-) Looking forward to her next stay!”
About: I have a 3 year pup named Bowie and I grew up with dogs my whole life. I will love and spoil your furbaby as if they were my own. NOTE: my profile says I have 2 dogs but I only have 1. I watch my Mom’s dog a lot so I have her under my account as a customer of the services :) I’m currently out of work so I have an open schedule to focus on your pup. Bowie would love a playmate to zoom around with! I have a big complex and a little gated dog run on-site. I also have a big deck I gate off during the warmer months for patrolling. I have a 6 foot lead for extra security if needed. Bowie roams around the deck and takes in the sun or says hello to fellow friends when they walk by on the mini trails.
“she is very kind and compassionate. Great person. She is taking care of my dog with hip problems. I can leave my dog with no hesitations. Thank you Sue.”
“Adrienne took great care of Quin for daycare. Many walks throughout the day as well as updates and pictures. Followed care instructions closely. Will have her care for him again!”

About: Hi, my name is Meghan! I have loved animals my entire life and have always been the person who stops to say hello to every dog, cat, and animal I meet (while always respecting their boundaries). My love for animals started as a child when I spent my school years reading every animal book I could find and watching every animal movie and documentary I could. That lifelong passion has grown into a career caring for pets and learning what makes each animal unique. I have over 4 years of professional animal care experience, beginning in dog daycare in 2022 and currently working as a Veterinary Assistant in an emergency veterinary setting. Through my experience, I have cared for dogs and cats of many ages, breeds, personalities, and needs from playful puppies and kittens to adult pets and senior companions. At home, I care for my own pets, including Thor, my 12 year old Chihuahua mix, Xena, my 8 year old Lab/Hound mix, and Sage, my 11 year old cat. Caring for my own pets has taught me the importance of patience, routine, understanding body language, and recognizing that every animal communicates differently. My experience includes: • Puppy, kitten, adult, and senior pet care • Medication administration (oral medications, eye drops, and injections) • Diabetic pet care and pets with medical needs • Understanding animal body language and stress signals • Providing enrichment, playtime, exercise, and individualized attention • Helping pets feel safe and comfortable in their own environment I understand that pets are family, and leaving them with someone new can feel stressful. My goal is to give you peace of mind by treating your pets with the same love, patience, and care I give my own. Every pet has their own personality, routine, likes, dislikes, and comfort level. I take the time to learn what makes your pet happy and what helps them feel secure. You can expect clear communication, updates, and plenty of photos so you always know how your pet is doing while you are away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, enrichment, or simply relaxing in their favorite spot, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they are with me. I am currently an online student, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to plan my day around the pets in my care. Whether I'm providing drop in visits, dog walks, or house sitting, I make it a priority to follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible. I always make sure pets receive the attention, exercise, companionship, and care they need while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well being are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special instructions before every booking. I follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and exercise routines carefully while respecting your home and your pet's space. With my professional experience in dog daycare and as a Veterinary Assistant, I understand animal body language and recognize signs of stress or discomfort. I use positive, patient handling and never force interactions, allowing pets to become comfortable at their own pace. You can also expect regular updates and plenty of photos throughout each visit or stay, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: Along with growing up with two dogs and helping to raise a puppy as a teenager, family friends and neighbors have relied on me to take care of their dogs and cats since I was ten. I've worked with all types of dogs, from Shih Tzus to Pit Bull mixes. I'm the one in my family who takes the dogs out on long hikes (or for short walks around the block once they get older), brushes their teeth and fur, gives them baths, and trims their nails. I'm a regular volunteer at cat shelters in cat care, and as a student on the pre-veterinary track, I have shadowed and volunteered at vet clinics to better understand the care that goes into your pets' health. Besides dogs and cats, I also have experience with a myriad of animals, such as hamsters, rabbits, chinchillas, guinea pigs, mice, fish, hermit crabs, geckos, snakes, tortoises, and turtles. I have experience in preparing special diets for pets and other animals with specific health needs, and in senior dog care. Over the summer, I work at my internships in animal care for much of the work day, but that leaves afternoons, evenings, and early mornings for me to check in on your pets and give any care they need (breakfast/dinner, walks, baths, etc.). Over the school year, I will have more hours available to fit in more time with your pets (i.e. walking and bathing/grooming, more playtime, etc.). As a lover of all creatures, I take the safety of both pets and wildlife seriously. As such, I will always supervise pets that are outside in yards and keep them on leashes outside fenced-off areas so they are not a danger to others or themselves. If transporting pets in my car, I will keep them safe and secure in a carrier/crate. As a college student who has shared living spaces with new people before, I understand the importance of respecting others' belongings and boundaries. During drop-in visits, I will be sure to respect your home and any rules you may have for your comfort (i.e. no shoes in the house, specific dishes/silverware for pets only, general cleanliness, etc.).
About: Growing up my sisters and I started a dog walking business and offered our services to all the neighbors. We walked and played with dogs of all breeds and sizes! I’m currently working as a college softball coach and looking to fill up my my schedule! My schedule varies depending on the season, and my days being wide open in the off-season. I treat all pets like my own, making sure they are fed and played with like I know my Wayne would like. They deserve all the pets!
“My family and I made a great choice picking Carol. We were at ease knowing that she would show up everyday as requested. We will book her again for sure. Thank you Carol!!!”
“Caroline is great! Super friendly and very flexible. My schedule is a little crazy and she’s been very easy to work with. My dog has been very well taken care of and I highly recommend!”
About: Hi there! I’m an experienced dog handler dedicated to giving local pups the absolute best care. Backed by professional experience co-owning a pet service business and years of hands-on dog handling, I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. My main priority is making sure your pup stays safe, comfortable, and right on their normal schedule. Whether we’re out on an energetic walk, dropping in for mealtime, or relaxing during an overnight stay, you can count on clear communication, prompt updates, and plenty of photo check-ins. Looking forward to connecting with you and your pup! Pet care is a core part of my daily routine. I build my schedule around consistent walks/visits, feeding times, and any special instructions so pets are never rushed or squeezed in. Throughout the week, I keep communication steady with updates and photos, and I stay organized with notes to keep each pet’s routine consistent from day to day. I care for pets the same way in any space: safely, calmly, and according to their routine. In a client’s home, I follow your instructions closely for meals, walk/play schedule, and house rules. I keep everything clean and secure, and I send clear updates and photos each visit. In my home (for boarding), I provide a calm environment, regular potty breaks and exercise, close supervision, and a consistent routine with the right balance of attention and downtime based on your pet’s personality and energy level.

About: I am a 28 year old dog lover who has had dogs my whole life! I have had multiple bichons as a kid and have spent a ton of time with a variety of family friends breeds! I have trained our dogs growing up with my family and spent a lot of time walking and keeping them busy throwing the ball around as my mom was a writer. I joined Rover to help save up for my September 2027 wedding and are hoping to help out some families with their pets while getting some exercise! Thanks so much for considering! I am an accountant who works 8-5. My break (when I would walk or drop in) is from 12-1. I would also do so before & after work. I have lots of experience with pets and am happy to safely care for your pet however you specify! We crate our pets at night, our yard is fenced in, ETC,
About: I’ve lived with animals my whole life and adore them. I’m detail-oriented and take instructions seriously.

About: I have been around dogs all of my life, once I was able to properly hold a leash there was no stopping me from hanging out with our 4-legged furry friends! I am a frequent dog walker for coworkers, friends, and family. I also have dog sat on multiple occasions for coworkers, friends, and family whenever they needed me. Most importantly I rescued a very active and very spoiled French Bulldog 6 years ago and he has made my love for dogs even stronger somehow! As much as I love dogs, I also love cats! I will make friends with any sort of animal if I am able to! I work a hybrid schedule for a corporate office. I am in the office on Tuesdays & Wednesdays, and I work from home the other 3 days. Monday, Thursday, Friday I take personal walks on my lunch break as well as after 5pm and would love for a furry friend to join me! Saturdays & Sundays I am open as well! Happy to walk your pup wherever in the neighborhood or area, we'd get out steps in! I have walked dogs in the past ranging from 15lbs, all the way up to 120lbs!

“I recently had the pleasure of entrusting Robert and his family to watch over my dog Simba, and I couldn't be more delighted with the care and attention he received. From start to finish, this dog sitting experience was nothing short of exceptional. Throughout my dog's stay, I received regular updates with photos from, which put my mind at ease and allowed me to enjoy my time away knowing that my dog was in great hands. I could see from the pictures that my dog was enjoying himself during his stay. In addition to his exceptional care, Robert is an excellent communicator, and was always prompt in responding to any questions or concerns I had. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a dog sitter. He provided a loving and safe environment for my dog, and I will not hesitate to book Rover services again in the future with him. Thank you so much Robert, for taking such wonderful care of Simba and making him feel at home.”
“Sean is the best! Bailey always has such a great time and is so well taken care of. Sean goes on long walks, plays with Bailey and then lets Bailey snooze away. Thank you again!!”
“Lee and family were amazing with our dog! Great communication and he was very comfortable with them. We already have our next stay scheduled! Highly recommend. Thanks for taking such good care of him!”
“Guillermo is fantastic. He was attentive to our old pup and wonderfully responsive to us. He is kind and calm, and it was clear our dog felt so comfortable and content. Our dog had an upset stomach and Guillermo was gracious and amazing at taking the extra steps to give him canned food and medicine. He sent great updates and pictures, I wish I had found him sooner and look forward to having him care for our dog again.”
“Tyler and Meichen were awesome with Milo! They kept sending us pictures, took him for multiple walks and it was clear he was super happy and having a great time. They really took great care of him, and we felt so at ease knowing he was in good hands. I’d totally recommend them to anyone looking for dog sitters—they’re the best!”
“It was my first time leaving my dog with Kira and Steve. I had to leave on an urgent trip and they were understanding and made the whole process super easy. Milly had a great time with them and they kept sending me text, image and video updates of everything going on with milly.”
“Julie was so great with our dog Siena. Siena can be a bit anxious, and Julie was so caring and great with her and made her feel right at home. Great communicator, got lovely pictures and updates while we were away, we couldn’t be happier with Julie!”
“Mayra was very lovely to work with and was SUPER flexible and accommodating. I was kind of a pain in the butt given all my schedule changes 😂. But she was more than happy to accommodate with watching Kira. Took a load of stress off knowing my pup was in good hands and i didnt have to worry. She also provided tons of pictures and kept me up to date on how she was doing. Definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Ashley and her family were great with Buddy! The pictures I received from her showed Buddy having an excellent time. I’ve already got Buddy booked to stay with her the next time I’m traveling.”
“Elizabeth and Rodrigo took amazing care of our dog while we were away for 6 days. He’s getting older and can be a little anxious, but he was totally comfortable in their home. They sent us tons of photos too, which we loved since we missed him. I’d absolutely recommend them as dog sitters.”
“Alanis was super responsive and easy to work with setting up pet sitting for Denver. I loved that she sent me an update and picture after the first night and was very responsive during the visit as well. Denver came home one happy pup!!!”
“For us, Paul is the gold standard of dog sitters. He is attentive, communicative, and experienced, which lets us really be at ease when we’re away from our dog. Dougie bonded with him so quickly over his short weekend stay! You can tell Paul is a dog lover through and through and your dog will be so happy to get to spend time with him while you’re away. We’ve had Paul dog sit for us for years now and he will continue to be the first person we reach out to when we need a sitter.”
“Natalie is phenomenal!!! She took such great care of Teddy. Her communication was outstanding, sending pictures and texts throughout the day. Such a sweet and kind person that you will feel so comfortable leaving your dog with.”
