“Jacquline was very efficient with feedback and she sent pictures of bailey enjoying her time with Jacquline family. Jacquline is kind and loves animals. She and her daughter was the perfect match for bailey while I was on vacation. I would definitely work with Jacquline again.🥰🥰”
“Absolutely wonderful sitters! Great communication with us. They sent me photos of Theo during the week I was away and Theo returned home happy! They treated him like family! Thank you Bob and Pam!”
“Ms.Tanisha was amazing with my girl Bella! She recognized that Bella gets a bit anxious when away from me and allowed her time to get adjusted with her household. She sent a bunch of pictures, updates, and fast replies. If Bella had to stay away from home again I would choose her! Bella was definitely in good hands :)”
“Excellent. I am very happy with her work. She is taking care of dog and she is very clean. She sent me videos and photos of my dog almost everyday. Thank you so much Quingbo.”
“My pup really loved her time with Kristy & fam. She came back absolutely exhausted. Kristy kept me up to date with plenty of photos and updates. Kristy maintains such a loving home for the pups and I could tell from our first meeting that Kanna was going to be in good hands and laps. Thank you, Kristy!”
“Had a great experience! First time hiring a sitter and was not disappointed! Great communication. Got daily updates and pictures of my puppy and how she was doing, and she was quick with her responses. And it was all last minute too! Definitely will be coming back!”
“So this is the first time I used Rover and I couldn’t be more happy Erica and Franklin were the best! They made me feel very comfortable by having a visit before my vacation so that I was able to meet them and see their home and that helped to know it was a perfect fit. They were in constant communication answering text anytime and sending pictures that will of the good times they were having with my pit. I give them credit because some people here that I have a pitbull and get totally turned off and feel some kind of way, but they were completely open to him and invited him in like one of the family. If I could recommend anyone it would definitely be Erica and Franklin . Taking comfort in them having my dog, which is essentially like my child enabled me to enjoy my vacation and I can’t thank them enough. I fully recommend them 100%.”
“My shepherd husky mix Riker had such a great time and was well taken care of. He was so happy (and tired) after his boarding. Would use their services again!!”
“Absolutely astounding! My puppy had a wonderful time with Annette & her family, and got to practice a lot of training skills. She was super insightful and gave me so much great information. She was extremely thorough, patient, knowledgeable and by far has been the best experience I’ve had on Rover. Very thankful that she was available so last minute.”
“Another fantastic stay with Theresa. Misa is always so well taken care of at her house and I never have to worry. She sends pictures every day and a check in. Theresa and her daughter Lyv are our go to sitters when we travel.”
“I cannot recommend Natalia enough! I was in a last-minute bind before my graduation and had to leave town for four days with no plans in place for my sweet (but very energetic and feisty!) Pomeranian, Brownie. As soon as Natalia reached out and I met her, I immediately felt at ease. She was confident, knowledgeable, and had a thoughtful plan for introducing Brownie to her other dogs and helping everyone adjust comfortably. Throughout Brownie's stay, Natalia sent so many photos and updates that I quickly stopped worrying and was able to focus on my graduation and trip. The pictures made me laugh, and it was obvious that Brownie was having a great time and receiving lots of love and attention. Her home is incredibly pet-friendly, welcoming, and clearly a place where dogs are treated like family. Natalia is kind, patient, and genuinely cares about the pets in her care. She even sent Brownie home with one of his favorite items because he loved it so much, which was such a thoughtful gesture. Finding someone you trust with your fur baby can be difficult, but Natalia exceeded every expectation. I'm so grateful she responded to my request, and I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. Brownie came home happy, loved, and well cared for. She is truly a gem! 🐾❤️ Thank you, Natalia!”
“Marlin was awesome while watching my cat Buckeye. She really put me at ease about leaving her with a sitter for the first time. Marlin was quick to ask questions and respond when needed, even provided me updates on how my cat was doing. I would absolutely recommend Marlin as a sitter to anyone in need and will be booking again in the future. Thanks Marlin!”
“Charles was amazing. Prince had a little issue shortly before his stay, and Charles was wonderful about making sure he received his medication. He kept me updated and even took pictures of Prince and sent them to me, which I really appreciated. Prince looked like he was having a great time and was very comfortable in Charles’s care. I was able to relax and not worry because I knew Prince was in good hands. I truly appreciate the care, attention, and communication Charles provided. I would definitely recommend Charles and will gladly use him again!”
“Wife y Fredis fueron muy amables y flexibles con la estadía de mi pequeña Pantera. Muchas gracias y espero poder contar con ustedes otra vez en otro momento. 🐾😊. Appreciate!!!”
About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals, starting with my childhood dogs, Bambi and Canelo. I also grew up caring for a parrot, a cockatiel, fish, and a hamster, which gave me experience with different types of pets from an early age. I currently have a dog named Zara, who has brought even more joy and experience into my life. These experiences have taught me how to care for animals with different personalities, needs, and routines. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding, giving plenty of attention, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their parents are away. I understand that every pet is different, so I’m happy to follow their usual routine and any special instructions you provide. My goal is for your pet to feel loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to dedicate time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m able to work around feeding times, walks, playtime, and other routines your pet is used to. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s specific schedule ahead of time so I can make their time with me as comfortable and consistent as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, or anything else your pet may need. I’m mindful of doors, gates, leashes, and their surroundings to help keep them safe. I’ll also keep you updated during their care with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing how they’re doing. Most importantly, I’ll treat your home and your pet with the same respect and care I would want for my own.
“TayJuana was wonderful with Callie Berry! She arrived right on time for pick-up, kept me updated with feedback during Callie’s stay, and brought her back home safe and happy the next day. I truly appreciate her reliable and caring service and would gladly book with her again!”
“Priscilla is AWESOME! She took great care of our dog - who is demanding and spoiled ? - just like he was at home. We could see in all the photos she sent that he was happy and thoroughly enjoyed his time with her! We’ll definitely be calling on her again the next time we need a sitter.”
“Tiffany took great care of Marvin and was very responsive. She shared photos without having to ask. We would definitely leave Marvin in her care again!”
“My dog had a wonderful stay at Kristin's place. Her house has a large, fully fenced yard that my dog was able to enjoy. Kristin is super sweet and even slept by my dog's side when she was experiencing separation anxiety during the night. Kristin's pets are all very friendly and I know my dog would love to go back. Highly recommend!”

“Delany is responsible, attentive, and communicative. She cared for our two cats for an entire week, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. She was also patient and thoughtful when an urgent issue came up and we couldn’t be reached right away. We truly appreciate her and would absolutely recommend her.”
“Liz took great care of my cat and made sure he did not bother the fish haha. He even sat on Liz’s lap, which he does with very few people. I came home to a happy kitty after my trip”
“Madeline was great. Toes came out immediately which was a great relief because he has been very stand offish with other providers. She sent some great pictures of him playing and he got a lot of love. We highly recommend Madeline and will use her again.”
“Excellent job! I am very pleased with the way Isabelle took time to play with my cat. Last time I went away she was so anxious and stressed when I came home because that sitter just went in and out. But this time, my cat was happy to see me and there were no accidents! I will definitely use Isabelle in the future!”
“I had a great experience with Tyasia. She was friendly, good with communication, and showed that she cared about my cats. I would happily recommend her to others and will use her services if I need a pet sitter in the future.”
“Taresse did an excellent job taking care of my cats during my recent trip. She is very responsible and reliable kitty sitter and my cats love her! She manages multiple cats, senior cats and cats on medications situations very well. I am usually greeted by my happy cats and everything looking very good and tidy when I return home.”
“Corinne was great with my three cats. Two of them are very affectionate and need a lot of love. The third is really shy. Cornnie spent a lot of time with the needy ones and had calm energy for the shy one. My shy cat actually ended up headbutting her by the end of the week and he has never done that with a sitter before! We will be booking with Cornnie again.”
“This was my first time using any sitter from Rover and Erika was great! She put me at ease introducing me to ths whole process. She sent daily pictures and drop-in descriptions of how my cats were doing, which made me feel better about leaving them alone. I will definitely recommend her and certainly use her again.”

“Christine is super sweet, she was a last minute sitter and I felt comfortable leaving her with my two cats. My litter boxes were clean and topped off as well as food and water. 5 stars ⭐️ would book with her again!”
“Vatia was great with Cindy! I could tell Cindy was getting plenty of love and snuggles while we were out of town. She also communicated proactively and came out to meet us and Cindy before we left town to ensure we all felt comfortable.”
“Wow, best pet sitter experience ever! Yolanda was great at communicating how things were going, spent time getting to know each of our pets, and we felt confident that they were being well cared for. She was even able to get our “impossible to medicate cat” to trust her and was able to administer her meds (which no other pet sitter had been able to do!). Overall, working with Yolanda was a great experience and we would happily use her for future pet visits.”
“Rich did a great job with our two cats, took well care of them and sent us pictures regularly. A true pleasure to have him as our catsitter. We will definitely ask him again to take care of Merry and Purrfect.”

About: Hi there! My name is Jacqueline and I have spent the past 13 years loving on my own 2 dogs Oliver & Annie until they crossed the rainbow bridge. Before that, I dogsat for friends and professors while I was in grad school. Before my 4-year-old daughter & I are ready to welcome another four-legged family member into our hearts and home, I’m happy to pour that doggie love into your pup while you work or travel! We’re both excited to take this step, and I will always be supervising if she is being a helper :) She is, however, afraid of dogs she thinks look like “wolves” (e.g., shepherds, huskies, etc.) and we’re only able to take dogs up to 50-60lbs at this time. I currently work from home most of the week. At most, I’m in the office for up to 3 hours a couple mornings per month. That means I have a flexible schedule to spend time with your pup. I can take your dog on walks throughout the day and there’s a fenced dog park my neighborhood where we can play fetch off-leash!
About: I’m a retired Army officer and lifelong animal lover. I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life, and I truly believe pets are family. My goal is to give your pet a safe, loving, and stress‑free experience while you’re away. 🐾 What I Offer Personalized care for dogs and cats of all ages. A calm, structured, and affectionate environment. Daily updates, photos, and communication you can count on. Flexible scheduling (advance notice appreciated) but can arrange last minute pet care if available. Complimentary bath for dogs staying 7+ days. 🏡 My Home & Experience I currently live with two rescue dogs I adopted while living in Africa, along with Swiss — my daughter's energetic, one‑eyed rescue cat who visits regularly. They’ve taught me patience, intuition, and how to understand different personalities and needs. My experience comes from decades of hands‑on care rather than formal training. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, comfort level, and quirks so they feel completely at home. ❤️ Why Pets Love Staying With Me I treat every animal like my own — with attention, affection, and respect. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or laid‑back, I’ll make sure they feel safe, understood, and loved. I’d be honored to care for your furry family member. I'm currently retired and my schedule is flexible. Specific pet routines can be added to the care I will provide and ensuring pets can have a mirrored schedule of what they owner provides them daily. I have a fenced yard that has been pet-proof in order to have a safe pet environment. I take time to individually introduce my pets to others, making it a non-stressful experience.

Lynn is absolutely the best.”

“Gabby accepted my last minute request for assistance when my regular sitter was unable to watch my dog while I worked. She took good care of Zoey and did a great job with communicating via the app on Zoey’s progress. I will definitely use Gabby again when my sitter is unable to assist.”
About: Hi Im TJ, a lifelong dog lover who truly understands how hard it can be to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I’ve been there myself, and that’s exactly why I joined Rover, to offer pet parents peace of mind knowing their pup is safe, loved, and well cared for. My Care Philosophy: I treat every pup I care for like my own, with patience, affection, and attention to their comfort and well-being. I work from home full-time, which allows me to be very hands on and present throughout the day. Whether your pup is energetic or laid back, I’m able to match their vibe and provide a safe, nurturing environment. I have experience with administering medication, puppies and elderly dogs. In my home, I specialize and care for small and medium sized pups. I’m focused on quality care, I make sure each pup has a comfortable, cozy setup. I understand that every pup is unique, so I follow their established routines as closely as possible to help reduce any stress or anxiety. What to Expect •Constant supervision and companionship •Lots of playtime, affection, and mental stimulation •Regular walks, potty breaks, and updates to you •A calm, pet-friendly home environment • Crate-Trained Canines Only Your pup must be crate-trained because we serve meals and naps in their cozy "doggy suite." While you’re away I’m here to make your pup feel at ease, cared for, and loved. As someone who works from home, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. From morning walks and playtime to consistent potty breaks and cuddle sessions. Pet care is naturally built into my routine, so your pup will never feel alone or overlooked. I also keep their spaces clean, cozy, and calm to make them feel right at home. In my home, I provide a clean, calm, and structured environment where dogs feel safe and loved. I follow each pup’s routine closely, offer regular potty breaks, playtime, quiet rest, and use crates for overnight safety and comfort in line with Rover Trust & Safety guidance. For drop in visits, I make sure pets are fed, exercised, and given attention while keeping their home routines consistent and stress free.

About: I’m a college student and I’ve been taken care of pets ever since I stayed with my aunt. I learned so many new things of taking care of pets especially dogs. Pet care helps me better whenever I decided to get a pet, I can do better learn how to take care and maintain any pets I can play with your dog with toys you bring, I personally don’t like dogs when in crate bc I believe that they like running around and having fun. I would have take your pet to stroll around and have some fresh air

“Absolutely wonderful sitters! Great communication with us. They sent me photos of Theo during the week I was away and Theo returned home happy! They treated him like family! Thank you Bob and Pam!”
“Ms.Tanisha was amazing with my girl Bella! She recognized that Bella gets a bit anxious when away from me and allowed her time to get adjusted with her household. She sent a bunch of pictures, updates, and fast replies. If Bella had to stay away from home again I would choose her! Bella was definitely in good hands :)”

“So this is the first time I used Rover and I couldn’t be more happy Erica and Franklin were the best! They made me feel very comfortable by having a visit before my vacation so that I was able to meet them and see their home and that helped to know it was a perfect fit. They were in constant communication answering text anytime and sending pictures that will of the good times they were having with my pit. I give them credit because some people here that I have a pitbull and get totally turned off and feel some kind of way, but they were completely open to him and invited him in like one of the family. If I could recommend anyone it would definitely be Erica and Franklin . Taking comfort in them having my dog, which is essentially like my child enabled me to enjoy my vacation and I can’t thank them enough. I fully recommend them 100%.”

He kept me updated and even took pictures of Prince and sent them to me, which I really appreciated. Prince looked like he was having a great time and was very comfortable in Charles’s care. I was able to relax and not worry because I knew Prince was in good hands. I truly appreciate the care, attention, and communication Charles provided. I would definitely recommend Charles and will gladly use him again!”

“My dog had a wonderful stay at Kristin's place. Her house has a large, fully fenced yard that my dog was able to enjoy. Kristin is super sweet and even slept by my dog's side when she was experiencing separation anxiety during the night. Kristin's pets are all very friendly and I know my dog would love to go back. Highly recommend!”
“Eric was great! We had a family emergency and needed to travel internationally. He sent lots of pics and even socialized our dog. It was an exciting week away from home with many adventures. Will definitely use him again in the future. Thank you for taking such great care of our baby!”
“My babies absolutely LOVED staying with Maria and Fernando! One of my dogs is very energetic and has separation anxiety and the other just wants to be pet all day and can be a grumpy old man if he isn't the center of everyone's attention. During our meet and greet session with Maria, she quickly recognized their unique personalities and knew exactly how to form a bond with both of them. Fernando is also an avid dog lover which was abundantly clear to my older pup who seemed to be right by his side in almost every picture. When the dogs weren’t inside getting belly rubs, they were having a blast in the extraordinary doggie playground that Maria and Fernando created in their backyard. My pups had so much fun playing out there and judging by the pictures, it looked like everyone else did too. I was so thankful for the pictures and updates Maria sent on a regular basis. It was very reassuring to see that my babies were happy, healthy, and safe. Maria and Fernando are definitely the BEST sitters my dogs have ever stayed with and I highly recommend them to any pet parent. Thank you SO much, Maria and Fernando!! My pups and I are very grateful for you guys and we look forward to seeing you again!”
