“After our normal sitter wasn't able to watch our dogs I almost cancelled the trip until my husband found Hanna on Rover. She had great reviews and our dog meet and greet went well. I could tell she loves animals and I had a great feeling. I got regular updates along the way. I would highly recommend and use Hanna for our services again.”
“Brad provided excellent, attentive care to my dog on short notice. Clear and easy communication at every step. The photos were a nice touch too. Thank you Brad, we’ll hope to board with you again.”
“Went above and beyond with my fragile old dog! Actually got him to eat, tried a number of things including sitting with him to get him comfortable...amazing.. he typically will not eat at any pet care situation but with this sitter he came home just like I dropped him off…normal. She is so sweet and caring such a good experience for him particularly because he just lost his brother. He also seemed to get on well with her doggy who was very friendly. Obviously, a very gentle and generous dog who shared his home with no difficulty. I can not tell you all the ways in which she supported my dog in this situation and what amazing communication she provided to ease my mind. Several pictures a day with details on his condition both emotional and physical. Do not hesitate to use this wonderful person and true dog whisperer! You will feel instantly comfortable and connected to your fur baby as you travel!”
“We are very happy with the support and willingness Jeremiah gave my husband and me for our dog. He took Xabela in for us at night, sent us photos of Xabela every day, and agreed to give her back to us late at night. Xabela was very well cared for during the days we had her. We would definitely trust Jeremiah with our beloved Xabela again. Thank you for everything!”
“Our high energy sweetheart can be overstimulated if the people around her don't know how to interact with her, but she did great with Alydia! We were traveling to visit family and we were nervous about leaving our dog with someone new, but we didn't have a thing to worry about! Alydia asked all the right questions and our dog loved being with her. Will definitely book her again when we're in the area. Thanks so much!”
“Jenny took such attentive care of Chula when Chula felt under the weather. I am grateful that my pups were loved and cared for while I was out of town. It helped ease my mind considerably.”
“Absolutely amazing experience. Lisa and her family are super sweet and welcoming, and they live on a beautiful piece of property. I honestly could not imagine Zeus having a better time anywhere else. Lisa was very responsive and communicative the whole stay, sent updates, and went above and beyond with anything I needed. She was really understanding about my schedule and the fact that I tend to run late, and never made me feel bad about it. Zeus clearly enjoyed being there and was comfortable from the start. I can’t say enough about how well she took care of Zeus. I would happily trust Lisa to watch Zeus any time and for as long as needed. I couldn’t recommend her more – just a lovely family and an awesome sitter.”
“Christina is fantastic! Great communication and Fenchurch loves staying with her. We feel 110% confident leaving our dog with her. She is our go-to now whenever we are in the area. 💕”

I have a fenced yard and safe house in a great neighborhood. I currently have one medium dog full time and my girlfriend has two small dogs here part time.
“Leandra and her husband went beyond our expectations for taking care of Harley. We have never left him with anyone, he always traveled with us but this time Harley couldn’t go. They sent pictures and if we had any questions they answered right away. We had no worries leaving him and would highly recommend Leandra.”
“Luke and his family were exceptional! He was incredibly flexible with accommodations. We were able to leave Rosie and Loki with him in complete confidence that they would be taken care of, and provided daily photos and updates. I would highly recommend!”
“We were in a bind when our original sitter got sick right before we had to leave for my son’s wedding, and Stacy came through for us at the very last minute. She was absolutely wonderful with Sophie, so patient and kind. She sent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. We’d definitely love to use her again in the future.”
“Nicholas was so great at taking care of my dog and walking me through my first time using Rover! He was always easy to get in touch with, and I’ll plan on reaching out to him again when I have to travel without my dog.”

“An absolutely phenomenal pet sitter. We could not have found a better person to watch our cats while we were gone for several days. Hanna dropped in twice a day to care for our cats while we were out of town. She is super friendly and warm and sweet. Our cats fell in love with her instantly. We invited her husband to visit our place with her , and he was great with the cats too. Hanna was a great communicator. She kept us up-to-date and reached out if she had questions. She also sent us numerous photos and videos of our cats as she cared for them. That’s how we know how good she was with them. For most of us who have pets, they are almost like our kids, and we want to leave them in the best care possible when away. Hanna is the person to take care of your animals. If you are in need of someone to watch your animals while you were away, ask Hanna before anybody else. You will not be disappointed, I promise. We will absolutely reach out to Hanna again for future travels.”
“Elizabeth took excellent care of our cats! She even had to deal with a power outage and was a trooper thru that. Also, our one cat is afraid of thunder and she calmed her down nicely and gave her the love to get her thru it! Highly recommend!”
“She is a great sitter and person! She came through last minute and I got really good vibes from the meet and greet which put us at ease leaving our babies and home in her care. She also had no issue caring for our hamster in addition to the 3 cats. She took care of everything while we were gone and went above and beyond. The power went out during our trip and I told her to forego the strawberry treat for the hamster to hold the cold in the fridg. She was so thoughtful to surprise her with bringing one from home! She has an energy animals must gravitate towards bc my dog who normally barks a long time when people come over before settling down barely barked when she arrived and the rehabbed feral cat who always hides from strangers even showed herself. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ashlee!”
About: I never grew up with cats, but I've always been acquainted with them through friends and family. I've taken care of cats sparingly since I was a teenager (mostly chilling with them on the couch and feeding them) but actively began working with them on a daily basis in 2024 when I worked as a bather and caretaker in pet boarding. Then, in 2025, we rescued 2 tiny kittens! I did a TON of research, and they're extremely well-balanced. I have experience administering oral medications for cats with my past work experience, as well as bathing, brushing, nail trimming, and how to spot illnesses. My past work experience has been invaluable. I've met cats of all kinds, from Persians to feral strays, and recognized conditions from poisoning (the cat is okay!) to UTIs. I believe what I lack in personal experience I make up for in professional know-how!
“Maegan was so attentive and great to our cat. She followed directions and my cat loved the attention! My cat requires an oral medication and Maegan was able to give her medicine while I was gone. Maegan also was so considerate and brought in our mail/packages. We will be using her again!”
About: I have experience caring for cats and understand that every cat has their own personality and routine. I’m comfortable with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and giving cats space when they like a calmer environment. I pay close attention to behavior and make sure cats feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I’m happy to send updates and photos so you can feel confident your cat is doing well.
“Thomye and family spoiled the heck out of Susu, sent lots of pictures, and were great about keeping us updated. When we travel again, we will totally be happy about sending Susu back for his own little vacation.”
About: I’ve had grown up with cats and have two of my own, one is 13 years old and one is 1 years old. I don’t mind scooping a litter box, clipping nails, giving medicine, or anything of the sorts. I have cat sit for older cats before and have experience with special feeding instructions as well as giving correct medicine dosage at specific times. I don’t mind playing with kittens or high energy cats (and definitely don’t mind feeding them treats😂)
“We love Michelle. Not a single worry when we have her stop in to see our goofy girl Hydi. Very professional and it’s a comfort knowing we can spend a few days away. Kitty is happy as well.”
“Ambrosia was great again!! My cats and dogs were very happy with her! She is very flexible and helpful which is great! It was my second time having her watch my pets and I wasn’t worried one bit! She is the best!!”

About: I have experience caring for cats of different ages, personalities, and needs. I currently have cats of my own, so daily cat care is already a big part of my routine.

I understand every cat is different — some are very social while others need extra patience and space — and I work to make them feel safe, comfortable, and at home while in my care.
About: I grew up with pugs and treated them like my kids — Bruce, Tobias, and Otto were my world. I’ve cared for senior dogs, playful puppies, and even dogs with special needs. Now living in the U.S. and missing my own pup back in Brazil, I’d love to share all my love and experience with your furry friend. I’ll treat your dog like family — with patience, affection, and lots of belly rubs! I recently moved from Brazil to support my husband’s new job, so I’m currently taking some time off from work. That means I have plenty of time — and love — to give your pup! I’m available in the mornings, afternoons, and early evenings, until the sun sets. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every dog as if they were my own — with love, patience, and attention to their unique needs. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine, I always make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved. I follow routines closely, respect your rules, and create a calm, cozy environment where pets can truly feel at home.

“Hanna has been a lifesaver as me and my dog Poppy adjust to the area and with the move! Poppy loves going to Hanna’s and playing with her new friends. Poppy is super anxious around other dogs, but she LOVES Hanna’s pups. It’s such a great feeling as a pet owner to know when I drop Poppy off she’s more excited to be there than she is to be at home!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and truly love caring for them. I grew up with a Husky/German Shepard mix which gave me early experience with daily pet care, routines, and understanding dog behavior. In my teens, I fostered a total of 12 dogs over the years, caring for a variety of temperaments and needs. This experience helped me become comfortable with dogs of all ages as well as training dogs. I also volunteered at an animal shelter for 2 years, where I worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. This included feeding, walking, cleaning, and helping dogs feel safe and comfortable. In addition, I’ve regularly dog-sat for friends throughout high school and college, providing dependable, loving care. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away! I’m currently available on weekends and evenings during the week (7 PM-10 PM). Starting May/June, I’ll have a much more flexible schedule with increased availability! I provide pet care in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their usual environment. I follow all care instructions closely, prioritize safety on walks and during visits, and pay close attention to each pet’s needs and behavior. I respect your home, keep things clean and secure, and always provide updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Alicia was very good. I have never had somebody walk Gunther before. After meetiing her and hearing her experience with animal, I was confident she would be comfortable with Gunther. I have a 75lb mix 50% Boxer and 50% German Shepherd could be a challenge. I was very pleased with her knowledge and experience. I recommend her at the highest level for her services.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of multiple different breeds since I was 11 years old. My family always relied on me to watch over dogs even when away so it included walks, feeding, grooming, playing, etc. I even own a dog of my own and provide other dogs with the same loving care I provide my own. Pet care would work best for me on some days during the week where I’m available between 7am to 5pm. For weekends my availability will vary. The instructions given for your pets will be followed. If client does not have a fenced yard for dog to play in or to be out in I will walk the dog for as long as needed or wanted by client.
About: Hi! My name is Sierra, and I am an artist, athlete, and am generally pretty active around town and in community events. I'd love to meet you and your pets! I grew up in a home with cats and have always been a passionate pet owner. My own cat is 17 and healthy, but I love spending time with dogs too. In my teens, in college, and through adulthood, I've pet-sat for many dogs over the years in order to spend more time with them and learn about their behaviors and needs. I've always wanted my own but have been too mobile to make a full-time commitment. My loss is your gain! I've worked with reactive and non-reactive dogs, small dogs and large dogs, and puppies and elderly dogs. I am very comfortable with animals and, due to my active nature, love taking them on walks around town or at the park. I am happy to also stay home with them if they're in their golden years or are less mobile. I will likely want to know a fair bit about your dog or cat when we first meet to ensure they are well cared for in your absence and to ensure I am prepared and aware of their behaviors if we are around other people and/or other animals. The same rules apply for kitties! I love cat sitting too. All in all, I love animals and genuinely enjoy taking them for walks, spending time with them, and making sure they feel loved. I have some experience working with sheep as well, so if you are on a farm or have other livestock, I'd love to help out in that regard too! I hope to own my own small farm someday. Thanks! I am currently working as an artist and researcher, so I have a flexible schedule. This means I can adjust my schedule to suit your needs and can stay overnight if needed. I will likely ask a lot of questions the first time I dog/cat sit for you. Knowing your pet's routine and their preference is very important to me to make sure I am prepared to take good care of them in your absence. I appreciate detailed instructions for house sitting, especially to make sure your pet is as comfortable and happy as can be while you are away. I do not mind if you'd like photo or text updates throughout the time you are away, so you can rest assured your pet is in good hands. I feel the same when I am traveling! For walks and such, I will still have a few questions to ensure I know how to best care for your pet while interacting with other animals and people. I am able-bodied and active and love walks at all times a day to get my (and their) steps in!
About: Hello, I'm a big animal lover. Life is always better with furry friends! I have pretty much always had a dog most of my life & always consider them family. I was lucky & got to be there when my former fur baby was born. Her mom let me massage her hips & tummy while in labor. It was her 1st litter & she was awesome!! She let me handle all 9 of the babies after she was done delivering so we could transfer all them to a clean bed & to help rotate at feeding time to ensure they all ate. All 9 survived & were healthy!! I was also a "doula" for my mom's cats pregnancy & she let me massage her tummy & handle her babies right away also. It's a blessing to see & be a part of. I would love to provide a safe and comfortable care for your pet while you are away. I used to have birds, cats, fish, been around reptiles & snakes, turtles, I worked at an eagle rapture center in Alaska which is where I'm from. I have a strong belief to only work in something you love so here I am. :-) Your pet will receive the same love & attention as if they were my own & provide plenty of pictures. Before I became a provider for Rover I used the service a few times myself & was very appreciative when I was given daily updates & pictures & want to provide the same for others. It truly meant a lot to me to get that so I know the importance. -Reliable, Safe, Comfortable w/ all animals -Wellness checks -Doggie daycare in your home-Rover doesn't allow me to add this feature/pricing-please ask for free quote -Pet Sitting -Pet Grooming -Walking/Running/Playtime -Pickup/Drop Off for Appointments -Training -Overnight care -Reiki/Massage for pets -I'm more than happy to help w/ some extra house cleaning (additional) so don't be afraid to ask.

“After our normal sitter wasn't able to watch our dogs I almost cancelled the trip until my husband found Hanna on Rover. She had great reviews and our dog meet and greet went well. I could tell she loves animals and I had a great feeling. I got regular updates along the way. I would highly recommend and use Hanna for our services again.”
“Brad provided excellent, attentive care to my dog on short notice. Clear and easy communication at every step. The photos were a nice touch too. Thank you Brad, we’ll hope to board with you again.”
“We are very happy with the support and willingness Jeremiah gave my husband and me for our dog. He took Xabela in for us at night, sent us photos of Xabela every day, and agreed to give her back to us late at night. Xabela was very well cared for during the days we had her. We would definitely trust Jeremiah with our beloved Xabela again. Thank you for everything!”
“Our high energy sweetheart can be overstimulated if the people around her don't know how to interact with her, but she did great with Alydia! We were traveling to visit family and we were nervous about leaving our dog with someone new, but we didn't have a thing to worry about! Alydia asked all the right questions and our dog loved being with her. Will definitely book her again when we're in the area. Thanks so much!”
“Jenny took such attentive care of Chula when Chula felt under the weather. I am grateful that my pups were loved and cared for while I was out of town. It helped ease my mind considerably.”
“Absolutely amazing experience. Lisa and her family are super sweet and welcoming, and they live on a beautiful piece of property. I honestly could not imagine Zeus having a better time anywhere else. Lisa was very responsive and communicative the whole stay, sent updates, and went above and beyond with anything I needed. She was really understanding about my schedule and the fact that I tend to run late, and never made me feel bad about it. Zeus clearly enjoyed being there and was comfortable from the start. I can’t say enough about how well she took care of Zeus. I would happily trust Lisa to watch Zeus any time and for as long as needed. I couldn’t recommend her more – just a lovely family and an awesome sitter.”
“Christina is fantastic! Great communication and Fenchurch loves staying with her. We feel 110% confident leaving our dog with her. She is our go-to now whenever we are in the area. 💕”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs. Either it being within the family or friends. I have experience with all sizes and ages. I have no concern adapting to your dogs unique needs. I work partly remote through the week. Allowing for pee breaks throughout the day. I have weekends open most of the time. It will be no problem to provide a comfortable stay for your pup. I have a fenced yard and safe house in a great neighborhood. I currently have one medium dog full time and my girlfriend has two small dogs here part time.
“Leandra and her husband went beyond our expectations for taking care of Harley. We have never left him with anyone, he always traveled with us but this time Harley couldn’t go. They sent pictures and if we had any questions they answered right away. We had no worries leaving him and would highly recommend Leandra.”
“Luke and his family were exceptional! He was incredibly flexible with accommodations. We were able to leave Rosie and Loki with him in complete confidence that they would be taken care of, and provided daily photos and updates. I would highly recommend!”
“We were in a bind when our original sitter got sick right before we had to leave for my son’s wedding, and Stacy came through for us at the very last minute. She was absolutely wonderful with Sophie, so patient and kind. She sent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. We’d definitely love to use her again in the future.”
“Nicholas was so great at taking care of my dog and walking me through my first time using Rover! He was always easy to get in touch with, and I’ll plan on reaching out to him again when I have to travel without my dog.”
About: I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals ranging from farm animals to indoor pets, including dogs, cats, and reptiles. I currently have 2 dogs, 2 cats, and 2 reptiles of my own, so daily animal care is already a big part of my life. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, playtime, walks, administering routine care, potty breaks, and giving pets lots of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and treated like family while in my care. I work full-time as a dental assistant Monday–Thursday, but I’m available before and after work and have full availability on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I make pet care a priority and can provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and care to ensure your pet feels comfortable and loved while with me. I provide a safe, loving environment and follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, potty breaks, playtime, exercise, and lots of attention to keep them comfortable and happy.
“My Buddy had such an amazing time with Emily & Ryan and their 2 fur babies! They were so kind and accommodating when I had to bump the time up for our meet and greet. I believe we have found Buddy a new home away from home!!! Thanks again guys you are amazing and I can’t wait to bring him back :).”
“I would highly recommend Greta to care for any pets. Our dog loves her, and she has been really flexible when we needed to change dates at the last minute. She is very caring towards dogs and is professional and easy to communicate with.”
“Debra was absolutely amazing! She truly enjoys dog sitting and it showed thru her genuine excitement to care for our Goldendoodle after our meet-n-greet. It honestly felt like leaving our dog at Grandmas. She took our dog in on Christmas Day and even got him a present. She even shared some of her Christmas dinner ham with him (after asking for permission of course). Debra genuinely loves caring for dogs. She sends updates and photos throughout the day. We’ve never left our dog with a dog sitter before and she put us at ease after meeting with her. We couldn’t be happier with the care she gave our needy and active Goldendoodle. We HIGHLY recommend letting Debra care for your 4 legged child. She will give them all the love and attention they can handle.”
