“I can’t express how amazing my dog’s stay was with Maisha. I literally won’t book with anyone else! She sent photos and video and was incredibly responsive. My dog had a blast during his stay. I will book again and you should too if you’re reading this!”
“Jenny was great with our dig, Riley. She asked lots of smart questions to be sure Riley was getting the best care and staying on his routine. She sent photos and was very accommodating when out flight delay resulted in a later than expected pick up. I highly recommend Jenny and will certainly call on her again.”
“Amanda sent us lots of photos and had everything packed up and ready when we arrived to pick her up. Our girl seemed happy as can be in the photos and when we picked her up. Thanks Amanda!”
“Caroline took absolutely amazing care of my puppy. She kept sending us photos and videos of him while in her care. He came back super happy with his time off ?. I would highly recommend her and would definitely be taking her up on future opportunities for care!”
“I will definitely book Tynesha and her family again, they were wonderful the entire time Empire was with them. Constant photos and updates throughout his time. Thank you again🩷”
“She was super nice and kept me updated about our furrbaby n he also loved there and played with other dogs! Will definitely recommend her to others who wants to leave their furbabies in good hands!”
“Kate was great and was so flexible with our crazy holiday travel plans. She sent frequent photos and assured me my dog was doing just fine. She was communicative, prompt and was a total life saver for us! Would absolutely book with Kate and her sweet family again.”
“Melanie, simply put, is one of the very best dog sitters we have ever come across. Our beloved beagle is a senior dog with health issues and anxiety, and Melanie puts her right at ease. She takes amazing care of her, as if she was her own. Melanie sends us pictures and updates and it makes us so much more comfortable to know our dog is comfortable with Melanie. We can tell as soon as we enter her home that our pup is happy to be there. I really don't know what we'd do without Melanie! She's truly terrific and we are so grateful.”
“Veronica was fantastic! As an outdoor cat, finding someone who could care for Juno, with safety as the first priority, but also allow her to retain her sense of freedom and independence was always going to be a tough ask. We found that with Veronica - would highly recommend! Very kind, sent us lots of photos and even got Juno some special treats and toys.”
“Akshay took care of both our dogs for an overnight stay and they loved it! Got frequent updates via pics/vids. We already booked another stay lined up in a couple of months”
“Let me start by saying this was my first time using Rover ever. Andrew was so helpful and reassuring and explained everything to me. Additionally, while I was away he kept me up to date with texts and pictures of Finn. Finn had a great time with Andrew and you can just tell Andrew knew exactly how to best care for my puppy. Thank you so much!!”
“As always, Stacia goes above and beyond! My dog loves going to her and loves being in her home and enjoying the cuddles and backyard freedom. She stays in communication giving daily updates and pictures of him enjoying himself or just relaxing. Thank You Stacia! He'll be back soon!”
“Neide was a wonderful fit for our dog, Vivian. She provided us with updates(both photo and video) everyday. She was great with following Vivian’s food and exercise schedule. Everything about our experience with Neide was perfect and we cannot recommend her enough if you are looking for someone to look after your furry friend. She is the BEST!!!”
“Jacqueline was incredible! Literally couldn’t have asked for more in a sitter for our dog Mabel. Mabel is a very sweet but anxious lady and wasn’t her best self when we dropped her off - barking and very anxious to be left. Jacqueline was very understanding and updated me soon after I left to let me know Mabel had calmed down and was doing well. She asked all questions necessary to ensure Mabel had the best and most comfortable stay possible, and Mabel did indeed have a great time! Jacqueline sent photos and updates the whole time we were gone and I felt very comfortable with Mabel’s care which allowed me to enjoy my time away! Will absolutely be using Jacqueline & fam again!”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and truly enjoy bonding with pets because they feel like a safe space and the most genuine companions. I have 4+ years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, playtime, walks, litter box cleaning, giving attention, and making pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. Friends, neighbors, and family have relied on me to care for their pets with patience, love, and reliability. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I make time throughout the week for feeding, walks, playtime, check-ins, and giving pets attention, comfort, and companionship while their owners are away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a calm environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, and any instructions provided by the owner. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior, keep their spaces clean, make sure doors and gates are secure, and give them patience, affection, and gentle care so they feel relaxed and protected.
“It was my first time leaving my puppy for several days and Tamika was great! She sent me photos and kept me updated daily which was really important to me. I could really sense that she enjoyed taking care of her. I will definitely rebook in the future 😊”
“Gabby was very quick to respond and took great care of our pup. We appreciated the daily updates with pictures and will definitely use her again!”
“I am so grateful for the amazing care my dog received! I had to leave out of state unexpectedly and realized at the last minute that I had made arrangements for everyone except our family dog. Thankfully, Klainer stepped in without hesitation and made the entire experience stress-free. Klainer kept me updated daily with pictures and text messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear my dog was being cared for with love, patience, and attention. I truly appreciate her kindness, reliability, and professionalism. I will most definitely be using her services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 2 years and truly love caring for animals. Along with my experience providing overnight care, I currently work as a veterinary assistant, where I care for both dogs and cats in a professional setting. Working in vet medicine has helped me become comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, personalities, and needs, including senior pets and anxious animals. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and routine to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work full time, so I fit pet care around my work schedule. I’m available on weekends and some Thursdays, which I’ve listed in my availability. I make sure to plan ahead so I can be consistent and give pets proper care and attention when I’m with them. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to help the pet feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get walks and bathroom breaks, and receive plenty of attention and playtime. I also keep their environment clean and safe and follow any specific instructions provided by the owner.
“Rachel was communicative and took great care of my Molly. She was available last minute and kept me updated before and after each drop-in. I would definitely recommend her if you’re looking for someone who loves animals and truly cares about the wellbeing of you and your pet!”
“Deli is amazing! She provided witty updates, played with my boy, and took extra care to make sure my place looked great when I came home. Absolutely would recommend her!!”
“We’ve booked with Irisdelie multiple times to care for our cats, Chai & Latte, and she is absolutely wonderful. She’s extremely attentive, very responsive with updates (our favorite to read while away), and it’s clear she truly cares about animals and takes pride in her work. Our cats adore her and we always feel completely at ease when they’re with her. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Joni was a wonderful sitter for Tigger! She communicated well throughout the stay and took great care of him — including giving him his medication and gently comforting him when he was scared. The only minor hiccup was with the Rover card check-in timing (either forgetting or tapping a bit too early), but that’s a small thing. Overall, I’d highly recommend her and would definitely book again!”
“Irene was a fantastic cat sitter. She was reliable, communicative and very playful with our cat. She even brought her iPad to entertain our cat with cat games. He alap ate his wet food while she was around, which let us know he felt very comfortable and taken care of by her.”
“Joanne was AMAZING with our lil ones. We never had someone come over to take care of them other than close family, so we were a little worried but Joanne gave us the confidence with excellent communication, always on time and sending us pictures. Thanks to her we were able to enjoy our vacation! We appreciate it so much. We will definitely be booking again. Super highly recommended!”
“Toni was great! My cat, who tends to be shy with new people, loved her. She was punctual, communicated well, and sent lots of pictures and updates while she was watching her.”
“Bianca R took great care of our cats while we were away. She came at the same time each day and sent pictures of them to everyday. We enjoyed our vacation even more knowing that our cats were well-taken care of. Bianca was also pleasant to interview and felt she was a kind person. I highly recommend her.”
“Lilian was great. Adequately executed her role with my babies. I cannot believe Leo came out from hiding lol Highly recommended. Thanks so much Lilian. Will use again 🙏🏼”
“This is the second time we’ve used Katrina for stopping by to watch/ feed our cats and she’s been great! Always on time and quick response. We recommend her for your pet caring needs.”
“Karollyne was wonderful! Very lovely, checked in on my kitty for several days in a row, and was very communicative. Got lots of great pictures while we were away and it seems like our cat did very well with her. Thanks again!”

About: The animal shelter that I previously worked at consisted of mostly cats from kittens to seniors.

“We had our first doggy daycare drop-off with Rosario and it was a great experience. Our 4-month-old Dachshund had a wonderful time and came home happy and tired. Rosario was professional, clearly experienced with puppies, and kept us updated throughout the day. Overall, a very positive experience for everyone—we’d definitely feel comfortable booking again.”
“Klainer took great care of our two fur babies while we went to some events in NYC for the day. This was our first time having both dogs watched together, as our youngest is only 6 months old. I never had to ask for updates because Klainer provided continuous ones, which really put our minds at ease during the day. They came back to us loved and tired, making our night super easy. If you’re from out of town like we were, I highly recommend trusting her with your fur baby! Very clean apartment, too.”
“Piper had a great first daycare visit and we will definitely be going back! She was given ample alone time to feel comfortable in her new surroundings and she looks very happy in the pictures”
About: Hi! My name is Angelica. I am a college student and I am majoring in Biology. I am a dog mom to a 3-year-old American bully. I have a lot of experience taking care of dogs because I have always either had pets or family and friends have trusted me to take care of their fur babies. I am willing to work with you to ensure that the needs of your fur babies are met. If you would like to book me shoot me a message and we can schedule a meet and greet. I can’t wait to meet you!

About: Cant think of time where I haven’t been around a dog. Growing up there was always dogs in the house. It comes easy to me. For my 2 dogs it starts at 345am with their first walk before I head to the gym. There 2nd walk comes at 8am before I start work then again at 2pm for a quick lunch break and their last 2 walks come at 5 and 930pm before settling down for the night. In between all the walking they’ll get breakfast and dinner and some naps. Meet and greet is important along with getting to know the pets needs and routines. Along with likes and dislikes. Knowing what the pet parents wants and expects from visits or boarding.
“Paula was amazing with Chloé! She felt like home. Thank you so much for taking so much care with here. I even asked her if i could pick her up a little longer than expected and she was very understanding about it, even though it wasn’t necessary at the end! Chloe and I were really happy with you! Till next time! 😊”

About: I’ve been a lifelong pet owner, with about ten years caring for my own dog, Bowie. Plus, I’ve regularly pet-sat and walked my cousins’ dogs whenever they’re on vacation. I’m really attentive and make sure every pet gets the personalized care they need. Since I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I have plenty of free time available, making it easy for me to dedicate consistent and attentive care to pets. My home is spacious and has a large fenced yard. Plus, I have a very sociable dog named Bowie. All of these things contribute to a comfortable, safe, and welcoming home for the pets that I have pet-sat.
“This was the last daycare I had with Jennifer before my sweet elderly Xander passed. Xander had come to like Jennifer and over time, started to show excitement when he saw her. So this final rating was given by the dog. Xander had many medical needs and Jennifer accepted all of them. Xander passed yesterday and I contacted her to inform her and thank her. I didn't mention this but I was feeling regret about not checking the box asking for pictures all day long. SHE STARTED SENDING ME PICTURES. I"M CRYING BIG TEARS THANK YOU.”
“My dogs had a great time with Te and I appreciate that she had availability at the last minute for both of them. She gave me some feeding advice to help my newly adopted dog put in much needed weight and it was super helpful because she's put on most of the weight she needs.”
“She was very caring and loving towards my doggie. She was able to provide a morning walk and a short afternoon walk which made my doggie very happy . She communicated with me throughout the day and send me pictures ! I also love how she was able to map out the area, time, and length when she took my dog out for a walk !! She is the best !”
About: I had my first pet when I was 7 years old so I know very well the care they need. We have also taken care of (we are 4 members in my family) many dogs in the rover application so we have experience taking care of pets. We are 4 pet sitters and my mom is pregnant so she is always at home. This means we always have free time to take care of your pet. We already have a lot of experience taking care of dogs and we love taking care of them. We play with them, we have a special place where the dogs can go to the bathroom and if the dog likes to climb on the sofa we have a protector so he can climb on it. Depending on the client's needs we change the way we take care of the dog.
About: As a devoted dog enthusiast, I have accumulated over two decades of expertise in pet care and have been a dog owner for 25 years. My two English cocker spaniels hold a special place in my heart, making them my absolute world, alongside my spaniel before my current two that I had for 17 years, who passed away in 2019. Spaniels hold a special place in my heart. As a remote worker with a highly flexible schedule, I am able to be present with the puppies and dogs regardless of whether it is a weekend or a weekday. Residing in a two-story townhouse, I do not have a backyard, but I do have three balconies. Additionally, there is a park located nearby. I also have two English cocker spaniels, who are siblings, named Parker and Riley. They are friendly and calm after the initial few minutes. Parker and Riley are both six years old, and my husband and I ensure their well-being by keeping them well-groomed. We consistently monitor their eyes, perform regular teeth brushing, and ensure that their paws and nails are in optimal condition.

“I can’t say enough good things! I reached out last minute—literally the night before—after my original dog walker had to cancel due to a family emergency. Travian came through bright and early at 6:30 AM with zero hesitation. Total lifesaver.”
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was very young, growing up with them since I was about 2 years old, and I started actively caring for them on my own at 12. I have experience with many different breeds, from German Shepherds to Yorkshire Terriers, which has helped me understand different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I currently have a well-trained Border Collie and a very sweet cat, so I’m very comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. I’m patient, reliable, and truly love spending time with animals, always making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. My schedule is very flexible! I take dogs to parks, interesting walks, and even the beach if authorized. I have my own transportation with no additional costs. I wake up at 7am for the first walk: 1.5 hours. After that, breakfast time. Second walk around 1 hour after they finish eating. I work while they explore the house freely. Lunch followed by a long walk (2-2.5 hours) to parks or different locations. Dinner and two evening walks (7-8pm and 10pm). Your dog is welcome to sleep in my bed or use their own bed, whatever they prefer—I adapt to their comfort and routine.
“Karollyne was so great with my two fur babies. She is reliable and with my busy schedule and last minute changes her afternoon schedule was always flexible with mine. She took such great care of my babies and anyone looking for a sitter will be lucky to have her.”

“Sharon was incredible! Super responsive, on time, and very accommodating. Our dog Milo loved her very much and we were very happy with Milo being in good hands while we were away! She even bought her dog so Milo had a playmate and walking buddy. Couldn’t be happier with her services and will be using her again every time we are out of town!”

“Jenny was great with our dig, Riley. She asked lots of smart questions to be sure Riley was getting the best care and staying on his routine. She sent photos and was very accommodating when out flight delay resulted in a later than expected pick up. I highly recommend Jenny and will certainly call on her again.”
“Kate was great and was so flexible with our crazy holiday travel plans. She sent frequent photos and assured me my dog was doing just fine. She was communicative, prompt and was a total life saver for us! Would absolutely book with Kate and her sweet family again.”
“Akshay took care of both our dogs for an overnight stay and they loved it! Got frequent updates via pics/vids. We already booked another stay lined up in a couple of months”
“Let me start by saying this was my first time using Rover ever. Andrew was so helpful and reassuring and explained everything to me. Additionally, while I was away he kept me up to date with texts and pictures of Finn. Finn had a great time with Andrew and you can just tell Andrew knew exactly how to best care for my puppy. Thank you so much!!”
“Neide was a wonderful fit for our dog, Vivian. She provided us with updates(both photo and video) everyday. She was great with following Vivian’s food and exercise schedule. Everything about our experience with Neide was perfect and we cannot recommend her enough if you are looking for someone to look after your furry friend. She is the BEST!!!”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and truly enjoy bonding with pets because they feel like a safe space and the most genuine companions. I have 4+ years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, playtime, walks, litter box cleaning, giving attention, and making pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. Friends, neighbors, and family have relied on me to care for their pets with patience, love, and reliability. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I make time throughout the week for feeding, walks, playtime, check-ins, and giving pets attention, comfort, and companionship while their owners are away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a calm environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, and any instructions provided by the owner. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior, keep their spaces clean, make sure doors and gates are secure, and give them patience, affection, and gentle care so they feel relaxed and protected.
“This was the first time I was apart from my dog for more than two days and the first day that I left the dog with a non relative. It was great to have someone as responsive and responsible as Vincent taking care of my dog. It is clear that Vincent loves dogs and does a great job taking care of them. When I picked my dog up it was clear he had a good week, was healthy, well fed and very happy.”
“I cannot recommend Rosario highly enough! She took care of my Jack Russell for two full weeks, and I was beyond impressed with her dedication, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals. From the start, she was warm, professional, and very communicative sending me regular updates, photos, and little notes that gave me total peace of mind while I was away. My dog absolutely adored her, and it was clear he was in loving, capable hands the entire time. When I returned, he was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. If you're looking for someone reliable, responsible, and truly wonderful with dogs, Rosario is the one!”
“Darrin, Debra, and Emily cared for our most precious treasure Benjamin with much love, attention to detail, and dedication. We are very grateful for their professionalism, and for the good treatment that our English Bulldog received during this stay at their home. We recommend and will request your services again in the future.”
“This was my very first time using Rover, and I am so thankful that I found Ziming, as booking with her eased my anxiety leaving my dog behind . She was so pleasant and I loved how she sent me pictures throughout the booking. She was also very flexible with my booking making this a wonderful first time experience.”
“Thank you so much, it was a great take care of our doggie Polly update all day and photos and issue there were very informative and helpful and totally respectful and recommended you to use for taking care of your doggie. Thank you”
“Booked a last min 5 night stay for my senior golden retriever! I sent an essay of instruction and Starry + Gio did an amazing job taking care of him. It was literally the coldest winter/weekend in NJ/NY area in the past 10+ years. They kept me updated constantly with walk pics throughout the day and pics of him in general! I was very happy to know that their dog (Walnut) is a sweetheart and gets along well with my dog! Highly recommend if you’re looking for a reliable and responsible couple to dog sit. Will definitely use again. Thank you!”
“Very caring and compassionate with my pets! I would highly recommend to any of my friends or family. She treated my cats as her own and always kept me updated. Extremely responsive and helpful with short notices. I can’t even begin to explain how thankful I am for her outstanding services.”
“Ekaterina and family did a lovely job hosting our senior dog Gil! He returned home happy and relaxed. She sent lots of photos and updates. Thank you so much.”

“From the second we met Joni I knew our dog Poppy would be in great hands. Poppy immediately felt comfortable with Joni and didn't even look back as we walked away during the drop off. Joni was in touch with us with pictures and messages about what Poppy was up to several times a day. We would recommend Joni to anyone who is looking for a loving and reliable pet sitter. Thank you Joni!!!!!”
