“Joanne was a great sitter, she watched our dogs for two weeks and did an awesome job. Sent updates and pictures and even took one dog to the vet when she showed signs of a UTI.”
“First time using Rover. 4 year old yorkie with alot of energy. Emily is super professional and loving. Her care is a 10/10 and we will be using her services for the foreseeable future. Thank you Emily for your tender loving care with our baby Toby ✨️”
“It’s been a while since our Whiskey Boy has been around other dogs since two ACL surgeries. He has an amazing time… Jason sent us pictures throughout and took great care of our boy! Will absolutely reach out next time!”
“Elaine was amazing! She kept me updated on Oreo’s care. She sent me photos. I felt happy to know that my dog was in great hands. Also, she had open availability. Which is great when you plan last minute trips. Highly recommend!!!”
“Monica was great. She allowed Sherpa to get accustomed to the surroundings and she had no problem accepting his large sleeping bed. She provided lots of pics to let us know he was fine and was very accommodating when we had to pick him up early. Great person to watch your pet!”
“6 stars needs to be on the scale. Been using rover for a while, Scott and his family are friendly, easy going and a joy to “work” with. Welcoming to are puppy (at the time of) Cheesy. He was transparent the entire stay with picture dumps and updates daily. Two thumbs up”
“Bodhi loved staying with Melissa and Angel! He was well taken care of and had a lot of fun with their son and the other dogs they were watching. I'd definitely reach out to them again to watch him.”
“Leila and her pup, Marley, are amazing hosts! If you’re looking for a family to love on your pets while you can’t I recommend this family! 6 older children in the house means your pets are always being loved on! Leila has a huge space in her living room for your pets to play and her backyard is a dog’s playground with everything they can explore! My one dog is a runner and Leila kept him safe and spoiled with his fun walks! Many pictures sent along with updates on how the pets are doing! We will definitely be repeat clients! Thanks, Leila!! 🤗”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience for our dog Luna! She had an extremely good time with the Jenny’s wonderful family. From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in loving and capable hands. Their dog Casper was the perfect companion—gentle, playful, and welcoming. Luna absolutely adored spending time with him, and they quickly became best buddies. It was heartwarming to see how naturally Luna fit into their home. The updates we received were reassuring and full of joy, and it was obvious that Luna was not just being looked after—she was being loved. We’re so grateful for the care, kindness, and fun they provided. Highly recommend Jenny to anyone looking for a safe and happy place for their furry family member!”
“Ivy took wonderful care of my energetic, large breed, 1 year old puppy. She sent TONS of photos and updates. He was so happy there- he hardly wanted to come home 🤣 Her dog is a great playmate for other pups, too. ❤️”
“Thank you, Amanda, for taking such good care of our dog, Maya. We will be sure to use your great service in the near future and will recommend you to other families in need of pet sitting. It was great to have peace of mind on our vacation knowing Maya was getting TLC when not in her own environment.”
“Jazmine (and her boyfriend Norman) took wonderful care of our 12-year-old black Lab, Judy, who is a cancer survivor and a bit particular—sweet, but needy and not a fan of other dogs. Jazmine cared for her in her home, made sure she had her morning medicine, and sent us daily updates with snuggle photos that made us feel completely at ease. Judy was clearly loved and beautifully looked after. Warm, professional, and trustworthy—highly recommend.”
“Sharon and her family took outstanding care of our aging JRT while we travelled. She was receptive to our list of suggestions and kept in communication during our trip, sending us photos of Daisy playing and continuing normal patterns which were an assurance that all was well. We wondered if Daisy missed us at all! We would highly recommend Sharon as an outstanding dog-sitter!”
“If I could leave 6 stars, I would! This was our first time using Meghan and she was amazing. We planned to have her watch our dog from Wednesday to Monday for a long weekend getaway, and then a snowstorm canceled our flight and we ended up being stuck away for 4 extra days. Meghan was so helpful and offered to go buy extra food for our pup since we had only packed him the amount he originally needed, and made us feel so comfortable leaving him there for what turned out to be such a long time. She sent lots of pictures and updates and I could tell my dog was having SUCH a good time. Usually when we pick our dog up from a sitter he is crying and squealing with excitement to see us… this time when we finally picked him up, he literally tried to go back into Meghan’s house and did not want to leave. He’s been depressed ever since we brought him back home… slightly heartbreaking for us LOL but a testament to what a great time he had with Meghan!”
“Jim provided excellent care for my pup. I really appreciated his availability when my previous boarding arrangements fell through at the last minute. My pup is a finicky eater and Jim kept me up to date on her feeding habits and asked permission to add tempting meat to her food to entice her. She loves to run at full speed, so his fenced property was ideal. Jim also communicated with me as well as provided plenty of photos during her stay and a video of her socializing at playtime. Thank you Jim!”
“Trista was great and my dog had a wonderful visit. I got pictures so I could tell she was happy while I was away and she was happy when I picked her up. Trista kept me informed and I could tell my dog was in good hands.”
“Ryan took great care of our dogs. He provided lots of pictures with daily updates on how our dogs were doing. Our dogs loved their stay and were so well taken care of. Thank you Ryan!”
“Kevin and Natalie were absolutely amazing with my dog! They gave him so much love and truly treated him like he was their own. They were very quick with responses and sent many pictures over my puppy’s stay. 10000% recommend them!”

About: Since I was young I have always been drawn to caretaking of animals, and so whenever a neighbor or friend went away I did the pet sitting in their homes! I previously worked at a doggy daycare and board, so I have plenty of experience in taking care of dogs needs, including things like medication. Currently, I work in an animal shelter, which includes different feedings and walking of various breeds of dogs! I am also currently studying conservation and wildlife management in university, and will be taking a multitude of caretaking classes that will help me take care of your animals as well. I currently work a few days a week at an animal shelter. My usual work days are from 8-3, and anywhere outside of that time I will be free to hang with your pets! If I have two weeks notice of a booking, I can also schedule shorter work hours to make sure I meet your pets needs. When I care for pets in their homes, I prioritize the wellbeing of the animal, including comfort and routine. I will follow their day-to-day feeding and exercise schedules while also giving the animals some love! I will also keep owners up to date with pictures, and will reach out with updates if needed!

“From the reports and Rover card photos Izzy really enjoyed Emma's company, and despite being a shy cat, he came out and let her brush him right away. She made me feel comfortable leaving Izzy in someone else's care for the first time. I will definitely book her for my next trip, if she's available.”
“Lauren was ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!! She took care of Tilly our “spicy” and sometimes difficult cat with ease. She always sent us photos and was very communicative. I will definitely hire her again when needed and would highly recommend!!!”

“Amazing service. She came out to meet my dog prior to the first walk I booked, and was very polite. professional, and thorough with her questions. I felt very confident in her abilities- and let’s be real, we are all a little nervous leaving our pets in the care of strangers, especially for the first time. She was also very flexible when some last minute things popped up and I needed her help with the pup on very short notice. 10/10.”
About: I’ve always had pets as a kid, and the same as an adult! It’s a privilege to be able to care for my own “babies” and others ❤️ I have two cats and a dog, so my days are quite pet-oriented. The cats need a little less care than my dog, but they all get loved equally 🥰 I treat my animals extremely well, and other pets I treat like my own! All animals are important to love and care for, big or small 😇
About: I have always had a dog in my life for 20 years, and it makes me so happy! I love meeting new dogs and being able to play and care for them. I’m currently working part-time while also taking summer college courses, but have some extra time that I would love to dedicate to a loving dog! I like to take my own dog on walks (even though he chooses the path) and love to give him baths. I’ve taken care of other dogs before through friends.
“Jessi was great with my late booking. I shared a little bit about my dogs’ quirks and she reassured me about her experience. We weren’t able to meet ahead of time but she asked good questions that made me feel confident that she would take good care of my babies. We were in the middle of a heat wave and she did so well accommodating them. Great pics of my smiling cuties even though Jessi was essentially a stranger to them.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of every breed, size, and energy level—from anxious rescues to giant goofballs. As a current volunteer at ACCT Philly, I work hands-on with all types of dogs daily, focusing on leash control, confidence-building, and reading body language. Friends and neighbors regularly trust me for overnight stays, multi-dog households, and high-energy pups because I stay calm, structured, and patient no matter what. I’m comfortable with puppy routines, senior care, and special diets, and I always make sure every dog gets the perfect mix of play, structure, and comfort. Whether it’s a jog around the block, a slow senior stroll, or bedtime snuggles—I tailor my care to your dog’s needs, not a one-size-fits-all plan. Pet care easily fits into my weekly routine. My schedule is flexible for walks, drop-ins, or overnights, and I make sure every pet gets consistent attention, playtime, and care. Whether it’s early mornings, lunch breaks, or evening cuddles, I’ll build my day around your pet’s routine. Safety and comfort always come first. In my home or yours, I make sure pets have a calm, clean, and secure space to relax and play. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, medications, and boundaries—so they feel right at home. I keep a close eye on body language and behavior to ensure they’re happy and stress-free, and I always send photo updates so you can see how well they’re doing. Whether it’s cats curling up for quiet time or dogs burning off energy, I create a safe, loving environment built on trust.
About: I’m lucky enough to have an open schedule, which means your pet will get my full, undivided attention without being left alone for long stretches of time. I’ve taken care of a little bit of everything - dogs, cats, and even guinea pigs - so I’m really comfortable adapting to whatever unique routine your animal needs. My love playing with animals, chilling with them, and just watching them do what they do. One of my biggest strengths is working with pets who are on the shy or anxious side. I know how stressful it can be for them when their owners are away, so I’m incredibly patient. I know how to read their body language, give them the space they need, and just let them open up to me at their own pace until they feel completely safe. I am currently on summer break from college and take care of my own dogs at home. I make sure to give them everything they need from walks to play to just sitting around together. My main priority is keeping a constant eye on your pet and sticking as close to their normal routine as possible. Whether I'm staying at your place or visiting, your pet won't be left alone for long stretches, which really helps prevent separation anxiety. While I'm in a client's home, I will treat it with total respect and keep everything secure. I will make sure that all doors and gates are locked securely every time I leave your home, and I always keep dogs on a leash during walks. Because I have experience with everything from energetic dogs and cats to smaller pets like guinea pigs, I’m very aware of safety and choking hazards, like making sure small items or dangerous foods are out of reach.
About: Hi, I’m Katelynn! I have 2 years of experience working as a veterinary assistant, where I became comfortable caring for animals with patience, attention to detail, and a calm approach. I also regularly watched my neighbor’s dog from 2015 until 2018, giving me hands-on experience with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and keeping a pet safe and comfortable while their owner was away. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I take that responsibility seriously.

I will treat your pet like part of the family and keep you updated so you know they are safe and cared for. I have plenty of availability for pet care, especially during the summer. Since I do not drive, I am best suited for local walks, nearby drop-in visits, or care where the owner can handle drop-off and pick-up.

I have 2 years of experience as a veterinary assistant, so I understand how important safety, clear instructions, and careful observation are. I also regularly watched my neighbor’s dog from 2015 to 2018, which gave me hands-on experience with feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. In a client’s home, I will follow all instructions for feeding, potty breaks, walks, medications if discussed ahead of time, and household rules. I will make sure doors, gates, leashes, and crates are secure, and I will send updates so owners know their pet is safe and cared for. I’m especially patient with shy, nervous, senior, or sensitive pets.

About: Hi! I’m 30 and I have been pet sitting on Rover for over three years for dogs and cats of all ages and needs. I may be petite but don’t be fooled! I am an aerialist in my spare time, and so I have a lot of upper body strength and can handle large, strong dogs as well as high energy dogs who need long, brisk walks for proper exercise. I have experience with older pets and am comfortable administering medications. Let me know if you would like me to water plants, turn on/off lights, or any other tasks while you are away. Whether you need an extra walk for a feisty pooch, care during your family vacation, or long-term assistance, feel free to contact me for a meet and greet. During COVID era, your comfort is of upmost importance. Please let me know if you would like me to wear a mask indoors, wipe down door handles, etc. to ensure your safety. I work full-time in the animal welfare field, so I am most available for weekend and long weekend pet sitting. I can do occasional weekday walks as well. Safety and mental wellbeing are my top priorities. I always make sure dogs are leashed before going out the door and avoid other dogs and people during walks, just to be safe.
“Genuinely cannot give anything but the highest recommendations. We needed a dog walker unexpectedly on New Year's Eve, and Lauren not only responded to the booking request quickly, she accepted it even though she's never had us as clients or even met us. Her communication is clear, quick, helpful and even though I was a little scattered during the handoff she handled everything professionally and with flexibility. Seriously couldn't have had a better experience.”

I have watched family dogs, and friends dogs both in the comfort of my own home and gone to spend the night at their houses. I’ve also trained my own dogs throughout the years, including potty training, simple commands, and crate training. I am currently working part-time at my job and stay home with my son. I am mainly home except for the weekends. And on the weekends, my husband will be home to help out. I have a fenced in yard and currently only have one dog of my own who is super friendly and very energetic so she will exercise your dog in our front yard. She loves to cuddle and she is crate trained. I also have an extra crate in case dogs need to be created for whatever reason.
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and knew I always wanted to work with them. I’ve always cared for the pets I had growing up which included dogs, cats and guinea pigs! I then started watching friends and family members dogs and cats when they were away. One of my first jobs was at a boarding facility where I cared for and walked dogs! I have a flexible schedule due to the fact that I am home everyday caring for my 2 year old son! I would love to bring him along for walks and drop ins! My dog gets walked everyday followed by a relaxing rest stop by the river in our backyard! We love to be outdoors as much as possible!
About: Growing up I took care of my families Great Danes, walking them several times a day. I love all dogs and would love some puppy time! I have Weekend availability and weekday availability after my 9-5. Willing to work whatever works best for customers within the confines of my scheduled day job. My cats always have clean water, food, and clean litter boxes. Plenty of toys for stimulation! I treat everyone’s pet with the care like they are my own.
About: I have over 25 years of experience watch dogs. The last two years I have been working with the See Eye Foundation as a Puppy Sitter. I sit for puppies 8 weeks to 13 years old, for a single day to over a week. I also have a 12 year-old English Fox Hound that likes to take me on walks/runs daily I am currently retired and this leave me plenty of time to take care of your dog. I am an avid runner and cyclist, so walking or even running with your dog is not a problem I do not have a fenced yard, but I have a 3-acre property where dogs can roam and run. I do have a 120 foot leash that lets the dogs run without fear of them running away. If your dog likes to play fetch or just do a lot of exploring, the yard is ideal for them. I am also available to do multiple daily check ins and walks if the dog prefers to stay at home.

“It’s been a while since our Whiskey Boy has been around other dogs since two ACL surgeries. He has an amazing time… Jason sent us pictures throughout and took great care of our boy! Will absolutely reach out next time!”
“6 stars needs to be on the scale. Been using rover for a while, Scott and his family are friendly, easy going and a joy to “work” with. Welcoming to are puppy (at the time of) Cheesy. He was transparent the entire stay with picture dumps and updates daily. Two thumbs up”
“Bodhi loved staying with Melissa and Angel! He was well taken care of and had a lot of fun with their son and the other dogs they were watching. I'd definitely reach out to them again to watch him.”
“Ivy took wonderful care of my energetic, large breed, 1 year old puppy. She sent TONS of photos and updates. He was so happy there- he hardly wanted to come home 🤣 Her dog is a great playmate for other pups, too. ❤️”
“If I could leave 6 stars, I would! This was our first time using Meghan and she was amazing. We planned to have her watch our dog from Wednesday to Monday for a long weekend getaway, and then a snowstorm canceled our flight and we ended up being stuck away for 4 extra days. Meghan was so helpful and offered to go buy extra food for our pup since we had only packed him the amount he originally needed, and made us feel so comfortable leaving him there for what turned out to be such a long time. She sent lots of pictures and updates and I could tell my dog was having SUCH a good time. Usually when we pick our dog up from a sitter he is crying and squealing with excitement to see us… this time when we finally picked him up, he literally tried to go back into Meghan’s house and did not want to leave. He’s been depressed ever since we brought him back home… slightly heartbreaking for us LOL but a testament to what a great time he had with Meghan!”
“Jim provided excellent care for my pup. I really appreciated his availability when my previous boarding arrangements fell through at the last minute. My pup is a finicky eater and Jim kept me up to date on her feeding habits and asked permission to add tempting meat to her food to entice her. She loves to run at full speed, so his fenced property was ideal. Jim also communicated with me as well as provided plenty of photos during her stay and a video of her socializing at playtime. Thank you Jim!”
“Trista was great and my dog had a wonderful visit. I got pictures so I could tell she was happy while I was away and she was happy when I picked her up. Trista kept me informed and I could tell my dog was in good hands.”
“Ryan took great care of our dogs. He provided lots of pictures with daily updates on how our dogs were doing. Our dogs loved their stay and were so well taken care of. Thank you Ryan!”
“Kevin and Natalie were absolutely amazing with my dog! They gave him so much love and truly treated him like he was their own. They were very quick with responses and sent many pictures over my puppy’s stay. 10000% recommend them!”
“Cado's first stay with Marleny went very well. She reported early on that he was clingy and liked hanging out in the kitchen. Same as at home. And it was clear from her pictures that he soon began behaving like his gentle lazy self, being with her very friendly other dogs, playing in the large fenced-in yard, and doing not much at all. He will certainly be back.”
“Gisselle and her family are the perfect family for our dogs to stay with while away from home!! They are loving, patient, attentive and absolutely spoiled our two Shetland Sheepdogs!! Gisselle sent photos as well as updates throughout the days we were away. The images showed my two pups comfortable, happy and having a blast playing the day away!! I could not be more grateful for her care in every way. Gisselle is my “go to family” now for all our dog care needs. She is the absolute best!!”
“Seb was great with Prince. He kept me updated and took plenty of pictures. He was very patient with Prince too since he still has accidents every now and again. I would absolutely book with Seb again!”
“Stefanie was excatly what I was looking for!!! She took amazing care of my four legged child. I will ask her again and again. This was my first time using a sitter that wasn’t a friend or family. Seriously a wonderful experience she’s kind, compassionate, caring 💕for my elderly dog💕”
“I had an amazing experience with Alaine as my dog sitter. She was highly responsive, providing daily photos and a detailed "report card" summarizing Brizo's activities and well-being during the four-night stay. Alaine took exceptional care of Brizo, and her own dog, Pasta, was a wonderful host too. I highly recommend Alaine for her attentiveness, communication, and genuine love for animals. Brizo can't wait to visit again soon!”
“Kevin offered to do a meet & greet in a short notice. He was very nice & shared pics with an update! Loved his location which was very close to my home. This is my 2nd time using rover.com. It was a great experience.”
“Allison was great with my three furbabies. They were well feed and received so much love from her and her family. Thank you for taking care of them. She was super flexible and very kind.”
