“Dana is amazing. Leaving my Maxwell with her was a great decision. She provided me with lots of updates the entire stay including plenty of pictures. Maxwell is a pretty timid dog but she was able to get him to open up and even socialize with her dog Bailey. She’s such a warm person, it felt like i was leaving him with a family member.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I am so happy with my experience. My dog came home very happy and I know he was well cared for with Alyssa. I will definitely use her again!”
“From the moment I booked with this sitter and had our initial video chat, I instantly felt good vibes and positive energy. She has a dog of her own, and it was clear that Chloe got along with her wonderfully. Throughout the stay, the sitter kept me updated with photos and messages, which I truly appreciated. It gave me peace of mind knowing Chloe was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Cheryl is the best! Our pup is so happy there. She keeps us updated while we are away but his excitement when he arrives at her house is the tell tale sign of his happiness.”
“Ms Jeanette is the sweetest puppy sitter and will work with your new baby with crate and potty training! Very professional, kind and attentive to my sweet boy needs! We will definitely continue to use her as a sitter and I highly recommend rebooking!”
“Absolutely — here’s a more natural, heartfelt version: --- Kayla was amazing with our pup! She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which really helped us relax while we were away. He came back happy, well cared for, and clearly had a great time. We could tell he was in good hands the whole time. We’ll definitely be reaching out to Kayla again next time we need a sitter”
“Cinthya was so great!! She was so responsive and flexible with us leading up to our trip and accommodated many changes! Our pup seemed to have a great time and we got several updates throughout our trip to reassure us. Would absolutely trust our pet again with her!”
“Alejandra was absolutely amazing! She was very knowledgeable about the breeds and both she and her husband were patient, loving and understanding towards our 2 dogs. Our pups were so well taken care of while in their care. She sent me pics and videos every day, several times throughout the day, providing a glimpse into how well my dogs were doing. She provided special care towards one of my dogs who needed skin medication. The pups were able to play and run in Alejandra's huge and wooden gated back yard, keeping them safe and entertained. They were so kind to even help my son and I bring in kennels and food items we had for our dogs. Highly recommend their services.”
“Stephanie was great and kept us updated while we vacationed for a week. She was so sweet to send pictures and videos. I think Gus had a great time playing with Nico and the other pups. We will definitely use Stephanie again and highly recommend her to anyone who is a bit nervous to leave there pup for several days.”
“Hunter was very welcoming, very friendly, and sweet. She took good care of my baby girl. She even provided an additional day because I ran into extreme traffic while traveling from visiting family for the holiday. I will be booking with her again.”
“Monica and her family were amazing! I was previously using a boarding facility and Will not go back. She had lots of love to give my pup, sent pictures, took her on nice walks. So happy!”
“Deborah did a fantastic job caring for our two bulldogs. We received excellent communication and pictures of our dogs. Thank you Deborah for providing the pups with excellent treatment. And the doggy door was an absolute hit!”
“Bozena made my family trip a breeze! My dog is gets stressed when we go on trips without him and we have had bad stays in the past. But Bozena made him feel right at home! Needless to say, if you want to put your Dog is good hands. You are in the right place. :)”
“Tatiana was amazing with my baby Cali! She kept me updated with the sweetest photos and made sure Cali was safe, happy, and loved the whole time. I could truly relax knowing my girl was in such good hands. Highly recommend her…she’s a dog sitter you can trust!”
“Amazing sitter! Got a lot of updates which really eased my anxieties about leaving my puppy. She was super kind and made sure that I knew she was ok throughout my whole trip. She went above and beyond by brushing her and walking her multiple times a day. If you’re looking for a sitter I would recommend her any day.”
“Amy and Ross were wonderful with Luna! They kept me updated with great photos and reached out whenever needed, which gave me so much peace of mind. Luna clearly loved her time there, and I’ll absolutely be using them again. Highly recommend!”

“Kristin is an excellent communicator. She listens and shares feedback of your pet with pictures and detailed notes on her report card. We appreciate her commitment to caring for our pets and recommend her to others looking for a responsible pet sitter.”
“Mackenzie is a cat whisperer! I have a shy, elderly cat that has never let a petsitter pet her (even regular petsitters). However, Mackenzie was able to bond with my cat from the first time watching her and was able to give my cat lots of pets. I loved seeing videos of Mackenzie and Maddie's pet sessions. Mackenzie was thorough in learning about how to take care of Maddie and what to know about the house. She's a great communicator. I highly recommend!”
“Michaela is one of the best Rover’s I have ever had. She is so genuine, responsive, attentive, understanding, etc!!!! I have unfortunately had to cancel last minute and she never seems upset or bothered by the circumstances. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you Michaela for being so sweet to our fur babies!!!”
“Minh is incredible and goes above and beyond every time! Thank you so much for the wonderful care you provide both my cats and for being so kind and conscientious with them and my home!”
“Sarah was the perfect drop in cat sitter! She communicates very well and easily understood all provided instructions and did an amazing job! Will definitely be using her services in the future!”
About: I have 8 months of professional experience working as a Resort Associate at Pet Paradise, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels in both playgroup and boarding environments. My responsibilities included supervising group play, monitoring behavior and health, administering basic care, cleaning and sanitizing spaces, and ensuring every dog felt safe and comfortable during their stay. In addition to my professional experience, I am also a dedicated dog owner. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs with special health needs, including managing allergies and other medical conditions. This has made me very attentive to detail, comfortable following specific feeding instructions, and confident in recognizing changes in behavior or health. I treat every dog as if they were my own — with patience, consistency, and lots of love. I am currently a university student with classes on Mondays and Wednesdays after 3:00 PM. I am fully available mornings and early afternoons on those days, and I have open availability at all times on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and weekends. I’m happy to accommodate early morning, midday, evening, and last-minute requests whenever possible. Whether I’m caring for pets in my client’s home or providing walks and drop-in visits, my priority is safety, routine, and comfort. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules, and household guidelines exactly as provided. I make sure fresh water is always available, food portions are measured accurately, and any special dietary or allergy needs are strictly respected. I am very attentive to behavioral changes and health cues, especially because I have personal experience caring for dogs with medical conditions and allergies. During walks, I prioritize leash safety, avoid high-traffic areas when possible, and adjust pace based on the dog’s energy level and physical needs. After walks, I always check paws, ensure they are comfortable, and leave the home clean and secure. My professional experience as a Resort Associate at Pet Paradise has trained me to monitor group behavior, recognize stress signals, and maintain clean, sanitized environments. I bring that same level of attentiveness and professionalism into every home I enter. Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own — with patience, consistency, and lots of affection.
“Kelsey was outstanding with catsitting. Dropped in on time, communicated well and took lots of lovely pictures. She was a huge help and would definitely recommend!”
About: I have been taking care of cats since I was born. Friends and family have all relied on me to take care of their furry babies. I am also a current volunteer for the No-Kill Cat Collective program which rehomes cats with happy and loving families.
“Alyssia was amazing! We will definitely be booking her again in the future. She was communicative, interacted well with our shy cats, and went above and beyond what we asked of her. Definitely a trust worthy sitter.”
“Annemarie is awesome! This is my 3rd or 4th time booking with her and I’ve had a wonderful experience each time! She is communicative, friendly & sends so many adorable pictures of my cat 🥰🥹 Highly recommend!”
“Shin is amazing! 10/10 recommend. She’s been our cat sitter the last three times and she’s always on time and the best when it comes down to communication. My wife and I especially loved how she took the time out of her day to get our cats Christmas gifts since we were away. She’s the best!”

“I highly recommend Zori for anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter! She took amazing care of my dog and treated him like her own. From the moment I met her, I felt comfortable knowing my baby was in good hands. She was attentive, loving, patient, and made sure my dog felt safe and comfortable the entire time. I truly appreciated the updates, pictures, and peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s hard to find someone you can fully trust with your pet, and Zori definitely exceeded my expectations. I will absolutely be using her again!”
“Jeanette is such a joy to have your pet around! She is organized and detail. She provides updates and love to my Melo. Melo deals with separation anxiety but he enjoyed his time with her. He came home worn out and had a great time. I would recommend her to anyone with a little one.”
“Georgia has been enjoying spending two days a week at Alyssa and Spencer’s while her mom works. Alyssa and Spencer are great with Georgia and make her feel right at home from the moment she gets inside. We are so grateful to have found this wonderful alternative to larger doggy day cares for Georgia. Georgia doesn’t give too many details on all that she does while she is at Alyssa and Spencer’s, but on the mornings we go to their house, she can’t wait to get in the car and get there.”
“Brittany was a great sitter for Thor & Lucy. She communicated well & responded quickly. She also sent pictures of them which we greatly appreciated! We would recommend Brittany to anyone looking for a reliable sitter for their fur baby!”
“I had a great experience with LeNai. She was thorough during the intake, giving me a full tour and taking the time to get to know my dogs and their individual quirks. Rocko can be an anxious dog, but she took it in stride and was very patient with him. She gradually introduced him to other dogs safely and calmly, and was able to pick up on behavioral cues very well. She sent many photos and videos throughout the day to let me know they were doing well. I will most definitely use her services again.”
“Peggy was great with my baby girl! She made sure my pup had lots of plays throughout the day, and sent me pictures and updates. She was able to accommodate our booking request such short notice, which really helped us out. Peggy’s home was welcoming and had lots of space for my pup to run around with her pups. I would recommend Peggy if you’re in need of daycare!”
About: I raised my Shih Tzu from 3 months up until I lost him to kidney disease on 9/11/2024. I walked him on a regular basis except rainy days (he hated getting wet lol), he was potty trained and free to roam the house while I was not home. Everyone ( family, friends, neighbors) knew how much I loved and cared for him. When he was in his last days from kidney failure, I stayed by his side until the end. I kept his routine the same. I pushed him in his stroller when he could not walk anymore. Administered him an IV daily to keep him hydrated when he barely ate and drank. I laid with him and held him until he let me know it was time for him to go to that Rainbow Bridge. As a newly retired person, I have plenty of time to give your furry friend(s) all the love, walks, and attention they need and deserve. Whether in my home or a clients, I provide a comfortable environment with meals, walks, playtime and companionship. I follow their routines as instructed to keep them happy and comfortable.
About: Hello, Rover world! My name is Gerardo, and I am the proud human to Elle and Tayter Dot. I am here to find fun playmates for my girls by hosting your pets. Please note that I will not host any dogs we have not previously met, for the safety of all involved. Since I'm already a dog parent, I'm already doing the dog routine - feeding, walking, petting, etc. Adding your pup to the routine will be pretty natural as a result. Hubs and I work from home, so we are actively spending time with your dog no matter what! We ask that your pet be housebroken. If they have a crate, we can add that to our routine, though our girls have full reign of the house. (It's their house, I just live in it.) Your pet can expect fresh water, a clean home, a yard to run in, and lots of treats. (Maybe also a weird dog voice...sorry not sorry!) I do my best to walk the girls more than once a day. We are regulars at various trails and greenways, as well as hanging with other friends and their dogs. My spouse and I are attentive to the needs of our girls, and will treat your dog like one of our own. You can expect your dog to be loved on, with lots of fetch in the yard, snuggles on the couch, and homemade treats for all.
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover who has grown up with dogs and truly can’t imagine life without them. Dogs have always been a big part of my family, and they honestly come second only to my son in my heart. I’m currently the proud dog mom of two sweet pups, a Maltipoo and a Cairn Terrier mix, who love meeting new dog friends and having playtime. Because I’m already used to the daily routine of walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and lots of cuddles, caring for dogs comes very naturally to me. I offer a safe, loving environment where your dog will be treated like part of the family. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some company during the day, or a cozy place to stay, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll always provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your dog is in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I work remotely from home, which allows me to be present with the dogs throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, so I’m able to take regular walk breaks, provide playtime, and make sure your pup gets plenty of attention and care. My home is calm, clean, and dog-friendly. During the day, my two dogs free roam the house. They love lounging on the couch, looking out the window, or hanging out in my office while I work. They’re friendly and used to having a relaxed routine with lots of love and supervision. At night, my dogs sleep safely in their crates as part of their routine. I’m comfortable following whatever sleeping arrangements your dog is used to so they feel as comfortable as possible while staying with me.
About: Hi! My name is Kortney and I would love to care for your loved ones. I love animals of all types. I’ve had two dogs and a fish in the past, and now I have the world’s most gentle cat! I) I am available for house sitting, walks and play time, potty breaks, meal times, baths, and general companionship during the day/night (they get lonely too!). I don’t have a breed preference, all friendly animals are welcome. I don’t have an age preference either, although I do have a soft spot for old pups. My partner is also on Rover and we often work together. Smoke-free household. I’m very flexible! I am currently working part time during the week and I’m off on weekends so I’ll have tons of time to take great care of your fur babies! I make sure that I don’t pet sit animals with opposing temperaments at the same time. I’m very in tune with cues that they give off. I can also crate your dog if needed.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a kid. It comes natural to me. Because I work from home, your dog won’t be left alone all day. They will get consistent attention and supervision. I currently offer house sitting, doggy daycare, and dog walking, and I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I have a special soft spot for big, goofy pitties, but every pup is welcome. I’m attentive, patient, and tuned in to each dog’s individual needs. whether that’s walks, playtime or cuddle breaks. My goal is always to make your dog feel safe, happy, and right at home. Working from home allows for consistent potty breaks, feeding, walks, playtime and supervision. I have flexibility on the weekends as well. I can accommodate longer stays. I provide a calm, secure, and attentive environment whether pets are in my home or yours. I live in a house with a large yard for safe outdoor time, and I’m mindful of slow, respectful introductions since I also have a cat. In clients’ homes, I follow care instructions closely to maintain your pet’s routine, comfort, and safety — treating your space and your pet with the same respect I would my own.
About: Growing up around dogs and having three of my own, I understand the separation anxiety of leaving them at home for long periods or for vacations (been there!). I also understand if you have specific lists of needs as well (been there too!) So I will ensure your doggo is well loved and you get as much contact from me as you need to feel comfortable. My job allows me a lot of flexibility, so most of my days are spent at home or being active outside (I like walking, hiking and I run 3-4x/week). This makes my days very flexible with what I can fit into my schedule. I can guarantee they will fit right in. If we book an appointment, that means my time is now theirs! I do have a dog now, so I'm more limited who I can care for. Let me know what you need and maybe we can work something out. I have a fenced yard with a large doggie door for in/out access. I also have a separate doggie couch we can chill on and they are welcome to get on the bed at night (unless you have a no-furniture rule!) I do pick up backyard waste wherever they stay. It's no fun playing in poo...or coming home to a yard full of it! I can give medication and look after dogs that need extra care.
About: I guarantee your dog will love us and want to come back! We don't just care for your dog, we play with them and treat them like our own. We have experience with day boarding, play dates, dog walking, overnight boarding, and long term boarding up to 6 weeks in length. Your dog will be in our care the entire time. I stay at home with our kids whom I homeschool. My husband works from home. We have a lovable mini labradoodle that loves to play and will make your pup feel at home instantly! We take time to walk your dog and go for car rides as much as your pup prefers! We have a one acre fenced yard your pup is welcome to explore. Being a family with children, there is plenty of love to be given.
“Mariel was amazing with Arlo! She sent me videos and picture throughout the day. Arlo had a blast running around the yard and loved having new friends. I will definitely book with her again.”
“Great first experience using Rover. Kimberly provided videos and detailed updates on what my puppy was doing during the day. He came home and passed out! He had so much fun. Would rebook again with her 100%”
“Flo and Kyle are the sweetest. They took great care of my puppy Bentley. Their dog Sperry is just the sweetest as well. Bentley loves playing with her and snuggling with Flo and Kyle. Will definitely recommend booking them.”

“Michaela did a great job with Sophie! She was so easy to communicate with! I felt so comfortable having Michaela take care of Sophie. She took great care of her, was reliable, and took the cutest pics! Can’t wait to have her take care of Sophie again!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my whole life, primarily large dogs up until end of life, as well as cats in the last 6 years. I’ve got extensive experience with these guys, and my love for these animals runs deep! I’m currently self-employed, so my schedule is very flexible for visiting or playing with your pets! The best times to schedule me are between 8am and 8pm, but I am open to other hours with planning in advance. :) I have a screened in yard, as well as 2 crates for small dogs and cats, comfy beds, and toys for them to play with! I also have treats and a dedicated space within my home for them to relax in.
“Kortney has been great taking care of my Benji. She is reliable and very accommodating to last minute changes in my work schedule. I would definitely recommend her services.”
About: I’ve raised five rescue dogs and two rescue cats over the years. I currently have two pups: my Lola, a working breed with many VERY important jobs that the future of this country depends on (if you ask her) and Linus, my funemployed couch potato. My dogs are my life and they’re spoiled for it is their God-given right. I extend that same God-given right to every pet I care for :) They deserve the best in life! They’ll get as much walking, snuggling, fetch, or enrichment if they need their minds kept busy. I also sing opera and jazz to them but will stop if they tell me to 🙂↕️ I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs: high energy herding/working breeds, snuggly companion breeds, 70 lb lapdogs, dogs with separation anxiety, dogs with eccentricities that we don’t judge - this is a safe space. I’ve watched so many dogs that make me crack up with their antics. I’m also a big cat lover. I have experience with social cats who need to help out when I’m doing yoga or cooking or just want to snuggle and watch movies. I also have experience with divas and independent cats who lurk and come out when and if they feel like it. I know it can be tough when you’re away from your pets, so I do everything I can to keep their routines consistent and comforting. On the first day of a house sit, I’ll usually work a half day so I can spend extra time helping them settle in or get their new person excitement out. After that, I work a flexible 9-5ish from your home, so they’ll have plenty of company throughout the day. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I leave to walk my dogs and run errands but aside from that I’m with your pets. I prefer at least a couple days notice but can occasionally do last minute so don’t be afraid to ask! I’m comfortable pet sitting at your home and will follow the routine your pet is used to. Unfortunately, I can’t offer boarding at my house.
“Kristin always does an excellent job communicating, making me feel comfortable that my pets are in great hands. I appreciate how dependable she is and would recommend her.”
“Casilya has been a god send. Shes deal with our last minute cancellations and additional requests like a champ. She is flexible whenever we need and has made multiple trips when I accidentally locked her out preventing the walk. She could have gone home and charged us anyways but she didn’t she came back to give my pup a much needed walk after I ran home on lunch to unlock the dog patio.”
About: *calendar is accurate through 6/8!* - Comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, and types; dogs, cats, turtles/fish, hamsters/gerbils/guineas - Dog & turtle owner! - Experienced former pet store manager - Not available after 5 pm Tuesdays! I am a college student so I am unavailable on Tuesdays and available starting from 1pm on Thursdays, and I work part time a few days a week, which will always be updated monthly in my calendar!

About: I currently care for an English Bull Terrier that loves people more than anything else, and is not great with dogs. She has taught me the importance of watching body language, getting ample exercise, taking safe walks to avoid other dogs, and giving all the snuggles needed. I am very aware of dogs needs and keeping distance on leashes because of her. I have been around dogs all my life, from smell driven hound dogs, to ball driven mixes, and I love to play with and care for them all! I grew up raising rats and I love them too! I know the importance of them having social interaction, clean cages, and preferred food. I am also familiar with guinea pigs and hamsters. I also have fresh water fish tanks and can do water changes, feeding and medicine. I currently don’t have any cats (or other pets) because of my dog, so I am itching to get some quality cat time in as well! I would love the chance to care for your pets too! *I will have my 2 year old daughter with me most days. She’s very gentle with animals, but does get excited and laugh a lot. I wear her on my back in a carrier when I enter homes and walk dogs, however if your pet doesn’t like kids or is scared, I won’t be able to help this summer. I am a stay at home mom so I can come check on your pets at the most convenient time for you. If you need someone to come snuggle your pets, let them out, and play with them at anytime of the day, I am your gal! I will make sure your animal has more than just a simple potty break before I leave. They will have love, attention, and exercise. I like to come in the door with a treat (if allowed!) for dogs. I will play ball until the cows come home, or give them all the snuggles and love they need.
“Just one week into having Max (and his fiancé) take care of my two dogs and I’m already so impressed. Max and Jen took the time to get to know my dogs and asked tons of questions prior to starting weekly walks. They are both incredibly communicative and timely, send pictures and updates for each walk, and have been extremely patient with my female pup, who can be shy around new people. I will definitely turn to Max and Jen for any future dog sitting needs!”
“She took wonderful care of Loki, handled his excitement with patience, and even cleaned up after him. The photos she took are gorgeous and really capture his personality. highly recommend!”

“Keegan is great! She really cares about the dogs and their personalities. She notices the details about their behavior and knows how best to engage with them. Both times she spent the full 30 or 60 minutes with my dogs. She sent lots of pictures and notes about how things went. Best experience with rover so far.”

“Irvin was so kind and gracious. He volunteered to watch our pups at the last minute and took such good care of them. He was communicative and attentive to our messages about the walk. Will be booking Irving again in the future! ?”
“Priya was prompt, friendly, and did a great job walking my Blaze. The first day was interesting as Blaze constantly escaped her collar and running back to the house. By the second day Blaze was excited to see her and kept looking out the window when she left. I would recommend her for anyone who needs a good walker.”
About: I've had family pets my entire life and have been the primary care giver for the majority of the time. I've also had foster puppies and dealt with very anxious larger dogs. I have a hybrid schedule so have great flexibility during the week. I'm completely free most afternoons for walks and longer sessions. Weekends are also no trouble, but fill up quickly. Each pet has their own needs. I'm able to just sit and pet or rough house with their favorite toy. I'm very respectful of crate time and treat schedules.

“Absolutely — here’s a more natural, heartfelt version: --- Kayla was amazing with our pup! She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which really helped us relax while we were away. He came back happy, well cared for, and clearly had a great time. We could tell he was in good hands the whole time. We’ll definitely be reaching out to Kayla again next time we need a sitter”
“Stephanie was great and kept us updated while we vacationed for a week. She was so sweet to send pictures and videos. I think Gus had a great time playing with Nico and the other pups. We will definitely use Stephanie again and highly recommend her to anyone who is a bit nervous to leave there pup for several days.”

“Amazing sitter! Got a lot of updates which really eased my anxieties about leaving my puppy. She was super kind and made sure that I knew she was ok throughout my whole trip. She went above and beyond by brushing her and walking her multiple times a day. If you’re looking for a sitter I would recommend her any day.”

I was updated regularly with pictures while on vacation that made my day. I knew my dog was in safe hands so I could enjoy my vacation. I definitely will use Celeste again.”
About: Hey everyone! I am a huge animal lover. I have always had a dog in my home whether it be a family dog or my personal dog. Currently, I have two big, high energy dogs of my own a golden retriever and a husky! I love animals and understand needing to feel like your pet is safe and loved while you’re away! I will treat your furry friends just as I would my own 🩵 I am a current social worker so my current hours are after 5. My weekends are always open availability. I have all holiday and summer breaks off so will have additional open availability during those times. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly, high energy dogs as well as a one year old son who loves dogs. My dogs are good with other dogs and children as well. They enjoy playing and running around together! I also have a large crate available for us if your animal is used to being crated. We do walk and lots of play time outside in our backyard.
“Cody is great with my 🐕. My boy has high separation anxiety and I am comfortable leaving him with Cody. He also has an opportunity to get acquainted with other pets (which he needs as a Yorkie with big dog energy). Thanks Cody!”
