About: Hi ☺️ my name is Dennisse and I have lots of experience taking care of pets, including my 11 year old cat Flame and my 10 year old Labrador mix Muff! I love all animals and promise to give them tons of love during my visits and walks! One of my favorite parts of the day is walking my dog Muff because we both get some much needed exercise and we walk a different route everyday because you know walking the same route and smelling the same things everyday can be boring so I gotta mix it up to keep him entertained. I want to spread the love and care to other pets so here I am creating a Rover profile because my boyfriend said I can’t have any more pets 😅. Thank you for reading and I hope you have a fantastic day! I work from home three times a week and my fiancé is home the other two so there is always someone here to watch the fur babies. I usually take my dog for a long walk once a day and we play in the yard as well. I like to maintain the pet’s routine as much as possible because that reduces anxiety and allows the pet to trust me and feel happy. I like to play with cats and dogs and take dogs out for walks or do a scavenger hunt in the backyard to tire them out so they can sleep peacefully at night.
“Neli is great! We cannot recommend her enough! She took good care of our dog Toby and sent us regular updates, videos and photos. She communicated any concerns punctually which gave us peace of mind. Her house is super clean and she has a nice backyard with a small fence which was great for our little dog. Toby came home so happy and relaxed. We will definitely book her again.”
“Michelle and her family are awesome taking care of our beagle. Communication with her is fast and easy. We recommend her and would board our beagle with her again in the future!”
About: I've had pets in my home all my life and have always helped care for them. Including: dogs, rabbits, rats, lizards, and fish. Dogs have always been my favorite animal and I love caring for them by walking them in interesting places or feeding them, even sleeping with them! I finally got a dog of my own at 15 and for the past several years have walked her weekly. Now I have 2 and have learned to manage them both while walking simultaneously. I try to go on light hiking trails or to parks, switching up the location every time. I am currently free most weekends. On Fridays, I'm free after 2 PM typically, but occasionally my girlfriend will be free, in which case she can take dogs on Friday morning for boarding. Just ask and I'll let you know when I'm available on a particular Friday. In my home, my dogs are well-fed with a healthy diet of kibble twice a day, eggs in the morning, and chicken strips at night. They each get baths once every few weeks. We also always prefer they are never alone for more than a few hours at a time. If we leave even for one night, we make sure we have someone visit them every few hours for feeding and letting out. Otherwise, we make sure they feel as loved as possible with lots of petting and sitting together!

“This was Allison’s second time watching our cat Gio, and once again, she did an excellent job! Gio absolutely loves her, and it’s clear he feels comfortable and happy in her care. We feel completely at peace knowing he’s in such capable and loving hands. Allison is reliable, attentive, and truly goes above and beyond. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-notch pet care!”
“Stephanie is incredible. She has been super communicative and thorough. It’s such a relief to be able to get away and know that our cats are in such caring and thoughtful hands. Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve been lucky to care for cats most of my life and have spent over 10 years fully responsible for my own. I currently live with my sweet (and opinionated) cat Henry, and I truly enjoy getting to know each cat’s personality, whether they’re playful and social or need time to warm up. I’m patient, observant, and always adjust to what each cat needs. I understand that for many cats, this is their chance to get meaningful interaction during the day, and I’m happy to give them attention, affection, and enrichment if that’s what they want, or space and quiet if that’s what they prefer. I’m comfortable administering medications and always keep litter boxes extra clean because I know how much those little details matter. I’ve also had the chance to care for other people’s pets, and I’ve built quick bonds with even the shyest cats, which is something I’m really proud of. Friends and family regularly trust me to care for their pets, and I always treat that responsibility with the care it deserves. I’ll keep you updated with photos and check-ins so you can feel confident your cat is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away.
“Bianca is an absolutely wonderful cat sitter. She looked after my cat with so much care. From the very beginning, she was highly professional, reliable, and communicative, sending regular updates and pictures that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely loves animals, and my cat warmed up to her immediately. I highly recommend Bianca to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter, and I will definitely be hiring her again in the future! Bianca, thank you very much!”
“I used Jenniffer when my original pet sitter wasn’t available to checkin on my Cheeto (cat) and I’m so glad I did. She was the best communicator. Kept me up to date with everything.

“I would leave more stars if I could! Lily did a FANTASTIC job caring for my 2 cats while I was away. My cats eat only wet food, several times a day, so automatic feeders had to be set up daily. Lily did a great job following the instructions on how to feed them and it was nice returning from a long weekend away to a clean home- clean cat bowls, clean litter box, clean eating area, etc! I cannot thank Lily enough and I will be hiring her again soon!”

“Charlotte was the best! This was my first experience with Rover and she both helped me with the platform and put me at ease leaving them with someone new.

“Alley took amazing care of our dog Libby. She was communicative and thoughtful. She gave Libby puzzle toys and lick mats for some stimulation while it was too cold to play outside. Would highly recommend”
“Kevin is the best! My anxious cavapoo Cleo, absolutely loves staying with him! She is always so happy and relaxed with him! Kevin is incredibly kind, easygoing, and flexible, which makes coordinating everything so stress-free. His communication is always clear and consistent, and I never have to worry when Cleo is with him. The biggest thing for me is how comfortable and happy Cleo feels in his care! Highly, highly recommend Kevin!”
“Lorrie was SUCH a help to watch our pup in short notice and was so understanding to adjust her schedule to help us. Reina always has a blast with Lorrie and we cannot wait to bring her back to Lorrie’s real soon!”
“I'm retired, so my dog is with me most of the time and I've only left her on her own for short periods. I needed to leave her for several hours, so I was looking for a sitter to take care of her during my absence. I found Erin on Rover and all her reviews were 5 star and spoke highly of her. Plus, she was only a short car ride away. We had our meet and greet and Erin was everything and more that her reviews claimed, so I booked with her. My dog had the time of her life during her stay with Erin! Erin took my dog with her when she went to drop off and later pick up her daughter at the school bus stop and my dog, who loves people, was in her element meeting all the other kids and their parents. My dog spent the rest of the day playing with Erin's too-young-for-school son, who did a great job tiring my dog out and she slept all the way on the car ride home! Erin, her husband Nicholas and their two young children treated my dog just like she was their own and took wonderful care of her. I highly recommend Erin.”
“Sara takes really good care of Winnie. I know this from the way Winnie runs up the driveway to meet her every morning. He is usually nervous around other dogs but Sara dealt with that like a pro. Now he has dog friends at Sara’s that he enjoys being with.”
“Christina was awesome! It was my first time using a sitter from the rove app and she couldn’t have made the experience any better. I felt completely comfortable leaving my pup there all day! She truly was amazing, she sent photos, videos, and updates throughout the day which made me believe my pup was in great hands and indeed she was. When I got to Christina’s house to pick up my dog she did not want to leave haha, will definitely be back!”

About: I have over two years of professional experience working with dogs and have been a dog owner for more than 15 years. I believe in allowing dogs to approach at their own pace and building trust through patience and understanding. I have experience caring for puppies as well as dogs with behavioral challenges. I am the owner of Outreach Dog Walking LLC. I’m a college student with flexible availability. The only times I’m unavailable are Tuesdays before 1 PM and Thursdays. I live at home, so overnights at my home aren’t an option, but I’m happy to stay overnight at your home if needed. I am capable of handling multi-dog families. Due to my background, I'm used to seeing sibling sets of 2-3, despite never personally owning more than 2 dogs at 1 time
“So damn fortunate to have found Bianca. As pet owners, everyone is familiar with the apprehension that accompanies when you have to trust a stranger with your pets or like I say “Your Heart and Soul”. My boys are uber spoiled and Bianca’s level of patience with them….I couldn’t ask for anything more. She is communicative, punctual, extremely professional. She took the time to truly listen and understand Buddy and Brody’s personalities - their likes and dislikes - their joys and anxieties. As a pet owner, one can’t ask for anything more. The only aspect that behooves me is why does she not charge more for her services? Lol. All kidding aside, she is a Godsend for pet owners. B, once again thank you for you.”
“Jennifer is friendly and reliable. Our dogs love her and she has formed a great bond with them! They are always happy to see her. We are so grateful and happy to find such a wonderful and caring person to take care of our babies.”
“Dina was absolutely incredible! Her knowledge and experience working with labs (and large dogs), was very comforting for my fiancee and myself, as our chocolate lab is just shy of 100LBs. Dina was always on time, and we know that her time spent with Luca was never rushed. She spent more than 30 minutes with Luca on each of her visits; walking him around the neighborhood multiple times in a single visit - something no other walker has previously done for him. Additionally, Dina took the time to send us photos of our baby throughout her visits - which we all loved to see. Luca told us that he loved Dina and that he'd prefer for her to watch him during our future travels... I think she told him about her pool! Jonathan”

About: I have had dogs my whole life, some being high energy who play all day and some low energy who love to just cuddle and relax. Ive had 4 different breeds, from Pitbulls, Labradors, Huskies, and a German Shepherd. I know what it takes to make a dog feel at home and loved even if their owner isn't home. I love dogs more than most of the human in the world and trust me when I say your dog will miss me when I leave. I currently am searching for a job post college and waiting to enter a Police Academy in the coming winter. So I am available almost everyday and almost all day. I do have a dog at home that I take care of so if She needs to be walked I will do her separately. I have a energetic Husky at home so I know all about the high energy dogs, when I lived with my parents I had 2 couch potatoes so I know the best of both worlds. I love walking and running myself so having a furry friend with me just makes it even better.
About: Hi, I’m Lauren! I was a proud dog mom to two amazing girl dogs until recently, and I truly miss the joy of caring for a dog. While my family isn’t ready to have another of our own just yet, I’d love to help others by spending time with their furry family members.

I’m patient, reliable, and comfortable with everything from playful puppies to older companions who just want a calm walk and a cuddle. Whether you need drop-ins, walks, or overnight care, I’ll make sure your pup feels loved, safe, and right at home while you’re away. I work a hybrid schedule. Typcailly I work from home on Wednesdays and always Fridays. On the work from home days, I don't start until 10AM so I am free in the mornings and will take my lunch for the afternoon walks. In our home, we have an enclosed deck. Gate if needed to avoid the stairs. Nothing on the ground to chew. Pet free home. In other homes, I am always wondering where the pup is. I ensure to keep a close eye if they tend to be a trouble maker.

About: I have grown up with dogs, so I can walk, feed, bathe and play with as needed. I have always aspired to be a vet ever since I can remember. Now, I am an Animal Science major with a pre-vet track in college, ready to gain more time and experience with animals in order to get to my future goals! I am a full-time Veterinary Assistant working 4 days a week until 6pm, so let me know ahead of time what days and times you would need as my schedule can vary. I am experienced with walking dogs who can be a lot to handle on the leash. Therefore, either a fenced in yard or a dog walk will work just fine with me.

“We were so happy that Shelleen and Bill took such good care of our 2 senior labs Bono and Jeter. They made them feel right at home and could tell they bonded with our boys. It’s such a relief knowing that it was a stress free environment for them and they seemed calm and happy when we picked them up to come back home. We would not hesitate to recommend or use their services again . Thank you!”

She provided daily pics and updates which meant a lot to us. I would definitely recommend. Thanks so much for taking such good care of our sweet boy!”
“The best dog sitter that anybody could ever have. He’s very loving to my animals. He does all extra things that I don’t ask him to do like baths. I do believe he plays with them and has a good time with them and makes them feel at home. I know if she’s watching them that they’re safe.”
About: I have had 2 dogs in my household growing up for my entire life. Always Labrador retrievers that I frequently walk when I am home. I also have 3 cats at home. Safe to say I am a huge animal lover :). I also am a fitness guru, so I love long walks! I am available evenings after 5 PM for walks, or even mid day if it is in close proximity to where I live as I work from home 4 days a week. I am also available on weekends! My pets have an electric fence that I helped train them on! When I take care of others dogs, I make sure they are leashed, that I have a poop bag, and a bag of small treats for reward if they sit at corners!
About: I let sit for my sister and my god parents all the time! I spent time with their cats and dogs have taken care of them all! They love when they favorite human me watch them and we have a lot of fun together! I work 6am-2:30pm and home on the weekends and every evenings ! I would plan my schedule accordingly to make sure that they are well cared for and that they are not by themselves for any length of time! I would provide a great experience for all of who is involved! I look after them as they were my own and with care and love! They will be fed walked played with care and respect! I look after them individually and as a group and will provide support to them when needed!
“Richard and Barbara were very warm and welcoming to me and to my dog Maia. They gave her so much attention and affection. I felt like she Maia was in very good hands with them! We will definitely be using Richard and Barbara in the future!”
About: Hi ☺️ my name is Dennisse and I have lots of experience taking care of pets, including my 11 year old cat Flame and my 10 year old Labrador mix Muff! I love all animals and promise to give them tons of love during my visits and walks! One of my favorite parts of the day is walking my dog Muff because we both get some much needed exercise and we walk a different route everyday because you know walking the same route and smelling the same things everyday can be boring so I gotta mix it up to keep him entertained. I want to spread the love and care to other pets so here I am creating a Rover profile because my boyfriend said I can’t have any more pets 😅. Thank you for reading and I hope you have a fantastic day! I work from home three times a week and my fiancé is home the other two so there is always someone here to watch the fur babies. I usually take my dog for a long walk once a day and we play in the yard as well. I like to maintain the pet’s routine as much as possible because that reduces anxiety and allows the pet to trust me and feel happy. I like to play with cats and dogs and take dogs out for walks or do a scavenger hunt in the backyard to tire them out so they can sleep peacefully at night.
“Neli is great! We cannot recommend her enough! She took good care of our dog Toby and sent us regular updates, videos and photos. She communicated any concerns punctually which gave us peace of mind. Her house is super clean and she has a nice backyard with a small fence which was great for our little dog. Toby came home so happy and relaxed. We will definitely book her again.”
About: I've had pets in my home all my life and have always helped care for them. Including: dogs, rabbits, rats, lizards, and fish. Dogs have always been my favorite animal and I love caring for them by walking them in interesting places or feeding them, even sleeping with them! I finally got a dog of my own at 15 and for the past several years have walked her weekly. Now I have 2 and have learned to manage them both while walking simultaneously. I try to go on light hiking trails or to parks, switching up the location every time. I am currently free most weekends. On Fridays, I'm free after 2 PM typically, but occasionally my girlfriend will be free, in which case she can take dogs on Friday morning for boarding. Just ask and I'll let you know when I'm available on a particular Friday. In my home, my dogs are well-fed with a healthy diet of kibble twice a day, eggs in the morning, and chicken strips at night. They each get baths once every few weeks. We also always prefer they are never alone for more than a few hours at a time. If we leave even for one night, we make sure we have someone visit them every few hours for feeding and letting out. Otherwise, we make sure they feel as loved as possible with lots of petting and sitting together!
