“Brian has a good system and is quite knowledgeable about dog behaviors which helps with intros with the dogs and when they come in pairs. Asks good questions to get to know them and help make them comfortable. I like the fact that my dogs could be right with Brian if they wanted. Flexible setup and accomodating”

“Bonni was wonderful and we would recommend her to everyone. Our fur baby, Nippet, was so well taken care of and had a great time! Thank you, Bonni!”


“My puppy had a great time at Debbie's! She sent me pictures every day which helped me deal with our separation. She's obviously a very caring sitter and I will definitely use her next time I need a sitter.”

“Shell should be your first choice! She asks tje right questions and takes the time to know you and your dog. Great with communication and provides a safe, clean and secure place that your dogs will love.”

“Joshua's in-home sitting for our two dogs was great! He has an obvious talent for working with and training dogs, even stubborn ones. Our dogs were well-kept, and enjoyed playing with his German Shepherd in his large backyard. All went well and our dogs are better behaved for their 5 days with Joshua. We highly recommend him!”

“My Dogs have stayed with Mark 3 times now. They enjoy the day or even the week we were gone. Mark was great at communicating and sending pictures. I have both a large dog and a teeny dog and he was equally comfortable with both. I appreciated his attention to detail and willingness to give meds. The dogs both enjoy staying with him.”

“First time using Mina and Hannah and they were great. We received many updates and pictures and our dog had a couple of walks in a short stay. Also quick to respond with the booking process.”

“Another successful stay with Cecilia and Dan! This time, when I was getting Buddy’s things together to go over there, I told him he was going to see them, and he got super-excited and ran to the door repeatedly! He even jumped in the car before it was time for us to head over there! Pretty safe to say that Buddy loves being with them, and that makes us happy!”

“Cindy is awesome! The added plus is Dasha! Both took care of our Gin so well! Gin had a blast! Cindy ensures everything is covered and communicates often with pictures and videos. We just wished we could take Dasha back home with us. Thank you Cindy for taking such good care of our Gin!”

“Patricia is lovely. My dogs were well taken care of, and enjoyed being able to play with Patricia's little dog, Sophie, and another (small dog) client of Patricia's. I received pictures each morning of my travels, and Patricia communicated with me. Her home and yard are well kept, and provide a comfortable and safe environment for the pets. Having Patricia as my dogs' sitter took so much stress and anxiety of my shoulders while traveling. I definitely plan to use Patricia's sitter services when i travel in the future!”

“Jamie and Patrick are super trustworthy and have been super flexible with their schedule to allow for pick ups and drop offs to align with my schedule! Thank you so much for taking such good care of rio!”

“I highly recommend Brian as a dog sitter. My dog loved him and his dogs and didn’t want to leave. I felt totally confident that my dog was in good hands and safe and well cared for. I’ll definitely use Bryan again!”

“Rosalia gave our dog excellent care and lots of attention. We received plenty of updates so we were always comfortable our dog was doing well. We found Rosalia to be very responsive and flexible and are happy to be booking with her again for a much longer trip.”

“Melissa and Carlos are amazing! We couldn’t have been happier with the care Watson received. We received several pictures daily throughout the week. They took him on walks and just treated him with so much love. When we picked him up they said if he wasn’t in such a loving home they would want to keep him. They went beyond out expectations. We look forward to his next stay.”

“Savannah took really good care of Maple. She was patient, understanding of her unique needs and helped fixed a nutrient problem we didn't realize was an issue. Maple came back "smiling" with the zoomies. We will definitely be using her again!”


“She was SUPER flexible with her schedule and she really took good care of my baby, i was really nervous at first but with all the pictures and reassurance she made it not stressful at all! definitely will bring rocco back to her if i need another dog sitter:)”

“Ben is great. He responds quickly to communication. This is our first time using Rover and this experience was very positive for us. We have a big dog and Ben was a good fit for her and he sent us lots if photos and she looked happy in the pictures. We would definitely book with Ben again.”

“Jen is great! I’m in the process of integrating a new kitty and still keeping the two cats in separate rooms, Jen was great about giving attention to both while keeping them separate. She is a fantastic communicator and I appreciate her thorough rover cards and photos. Will continue to book!!”

“Brigit took excellent care of my cat while I was away, sending me pictures and dealing with some unfortunate throwing up well. My cat was happy with the visit ?”


“Fiery is great with my cats. It is hard to find someone who is good with cats. I am so happy I found her. She keeps me informed with every visit so I don’t have to worry about my boys.”


“Highly recommend booking with Sara! She was so caring, attentive, and thoughtful. It was obvious how much she cared for our home and cat. And she completed everything in such a detailed way. We will definitely book her again!”


“Jennifer was fantastic with our two cats and made them feel very comfortable while we were gone for roughly 5 days. One of our cats has pretty bad anxiety but she made them feel companionship and peace. Jennifer was flexible and made the best of some occasional circumstances outside of her control too, definitely would strongly recommend!!”


About: I’ve had cats for many years and currently have two of my own, so I understand how different each cat’s personality can be. Through both my veterinary background and pet sitting experience, I’ve cared for cats ranging from playful kittens to seniors, including shy, fearful, and medically complex cats. I’m comfortable giving medications, monitoring litter box habits, recognizing changes in behavior or appetite, and following detailed routines. Whether a cat enjoys playing, cuddling, or simply wants a quiet presence, I adapt my care to what makes them feel safest and most comfortable.

“August was very communicative, timely, and great at matching our two cats' very different paces/lifestyles (one highly active and the other a cuddle bug). They also happily handled all spills and accidents and checked the mailbox when we were worried our mail wasn't being held. Will definitely book again in the future. Thanks, August!”

“Jessica was a fantastic sitter. She was gracious with me on the pre-sitting process such as meet and greet and then communicating on meeting for the keys. She shared her photos with us on the cats on each visits (close ups as I have cameras which see from far). She communicate with me on any issues with the cats (none so far) and her visits which were remedied quickly. I would like to rebook her again in the near future.”


“Marcus was amazing with our 3 dogs. We have a 90lbs German Shepard, 30lb medium dog and a small 15lb dog and he handled each so well. He is friendly, kind and very knowledgable. He treats our animals as if they were his own and they loved him!”


“Skyler was a great pet sitter and house guest! She watched my two cats for a week. She shared a lot of updates and pictures the whole time. My cats were very happy and unbothered when I came home. I’ll definitely use Skyler again for future trips!”

“Abigail was wonderful with my two young kitties! She walked them on schedule everyday for 30 minutes each and left my home exactly as I did! I can tell my kitties enjoyed her care and she is very conscientious. I am so pleased I found her on Rover.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 14 years and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I have experience with both energetic dogs and senior dogs, so I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s needs, whether that means long walks, playtime, or a slower pace with extra attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own by providing plenty of affection, supervision, fresh water, exercise, and updates while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to making sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and happy. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, administer oral medications if needed, reinforce basic training routines, and accommodate any special instructions so your pet receives the care they’re used to at home. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide pets with plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I can accommodate walks, drop-ins, and sitting while maintaining a reliable routine. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort by treating every pet like my own. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, keep pets supervised, provide a clean environment, and make sure they receive attention, exercise, and affection. I understand that every dog has different needs, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences to help them feel secure while you’re away.
“This is a difficult review to write because Savanah ended up taking care of our cat, Purrcy, through two of his last three weeks of life. We didn't know it at the time, but he had gone into stage 3 kidney disease since his last check up and was starting to lose his appetite while we were gone. Savanah did her best to make sure he ate, even if he didn't feel like it. She gave all our cats so much love and attention. And all of her report cards gave us lots of updates and pics so I could keep my anxiety at bay. So thanks Savanah, for taking such good care of my babies, but I'm particularly grateful for the care you gave Purrcy in his last days.”

“Rita sent pictures and videos everyday as she cat sat for us. Our cat is not as anxious as she was when we left her alone over a weekend. She is still healthy and did not cling to us too much when we came home. I recommend Rita and will be looking to see if she's available first for future bookings!”

“Hossanna took such great care of our cat while we were gone! She was very communicative and easy to talk to and I felt at ease knowing my pet was in good hands. I would absolutely book her again in the future and recommend to family and friends!”


“Tessa was awesome and so attentive. She sent lots of great pics of Gidget and took great care of her. We had a snag in our travel plans and came back a day later and she was very flexible and communicative and made it easy to add a day to her scheduled visits. I will definitely request her next time we go out of town!”

“Martina jumped in literally in the hours before I was leaving as my other sitter cancelled very last minute. Martina was attentive to all the needs of my very elderly cat, gave him his meds, cared for him as if her own. She left my house in really good condition and tidy/clean after an 11-day stay!”
“Janelle was the absolute best! Our nervous kitty just loved her. She spent quality time with our girl and sent updates and photos making us feel at ease during our absence. She also took great care of our home. We couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. Thank you so much!”

“FANTASTIC!!! If you're looking for a professional, friendly, educated alpha, you need to book through Esperita! She is very quick and responsive to messages. She picks my pup up for me, and sends me a picture msg of my dog, letting me know they made it to her place! She also sends updates with pictures! (LOVE IT!!!) I could tell my hyper GSD had a blast at her place because she's always so tired afterwards! Thanks again Rita for being sooo awesome and caring <3”
“Jason is great! My pups love going to his house for daycare. They are older and its always hard to find a place where they are comfortable like they are at home, but they are always excited whenever I drop them off!”

“Brian is a rare find! His understanding of dogs and the dog friendly environment he has set up in his home are exceptional. Our Frank enjoyed his first "playdate" today, and we look forward to many more. We are also thankful to be able to leave Frank with Brian when we travel in the future, knowing he will be comfortable, happy, and receiving excellent care. A+!”

“Cecilia and family were very kind and understanding of Buffalo’s insecurity being left behind. Her dogs were very kind with my dog and had no issues. She kept in contact with me and sent me pictures that reassured me that Buffalo was comfortable and safe.”


“Always amazing! Punnarai is caring and attentive. My pup is excited to be dropped off and (sadly for me) tentative to leave the fun environment she creates for him while he’s there. Definitely recommend.”

“In all my years of using dog sitters, no one has come close to Peter in terms of the care and love my dog received from him. Peter sent the best pictures throughout the day, and I was jealous of how much fun they were having. , He really did treat Bug like his own dog. I think my dog almost likes him better than me.”

“Lauren and Devan were so great helping my nervous little dog get comfortable and feel at home on long days in a strange place. I felt she was safe around other dogs and was so glad that she got more playful and relaxed after being there for a short time”

“My dog absolutely loved it at Cindy's house!! It's my first time using rover so I was a little nervous but Cindy went above and beyond! You can tell she really loves dogs and knows what she's doing. I definitely recommend!”

“Melissa was really easy to communicate with, checked in with me throughout the day with photos and info on how they were doing. Felt very safe with them in her care.”


“Brandi is so nice and caring with her dogs and was the same with my dog, Buttercup. She helped make the introductions between Buttercup and her dogs go smoothly by slowly letting them meet each other. She sends pictures and updates throughout the day to keep you updated on the fun times your dog is having. Buttercup had a great time playing with Charlie and Jasmine. I was very reassured when I dropped Buttercup off and was very happy when I picked her up and saw how happy she was. Would definitely recommend Brandi to anyone looking for a safe, fun dog sitting experience.”

“This was the first time I have left Horace with a sitter and I am so pleased how well it went. Celeste responds immediately to texts and sends photos of how the day is going. So appreciated. I would send Horace to Celeste’s for the day in a heartbeat!”

“Shell is great! Wonderful with dogs and my two little guys, who are very cautious around new people, really liked her and her house! Definitely bringing my dogs back”

“Kind, patient, helpful, friendly, professional… Those are just some of the words I would use to describe Holly and Robert. I’m very thankful for their help with my standard poodle.”

“First time using a pup sitter, so definitely first time using Rover. It went great, especially since it was a last minute needed booking. Michael was just great with Rio! Thank you, Michael”


“Toast had the best day at daycare with Kathy and the crew! She took the time to make my slow to warm up pup feel right at home. I really appreciated the pupdates thought out the day and the fact she got to go out on a hike (a favorite activity of hers). Would definitely recommend and Toast can’t wait for her next adventure day!”

“Michael was very helpful and accommodating. I believe he did his best with Rocco to keep him occupied. Rocco has separation anxiety, but Michael made the efforts to gain his trust in a limited timeframe. We were very appreciative with his services!”


About: I mostly have experience with medium to larger dogs. I love going on walks so I will take pets along for the journey. I grew up with bulldogs and I’ve personally owned German Shepards and Huskies. I am currently in between jobs and preparing for a certification test for signed language interpreting. I have plenty of free time for pets and love to get out and about like going for walks, hikes and enjoying the sun. I have a private small patio with many dogs parks in my apartment complex. Also close to my apartment is a golf course that is a clear and safe walk for fur babies. I can crate your dog if needed (: they are allowed on furniture to make them feel like home!

“We had a great experience with Marcus! Misty absolutely loved him from the start. He was very attentive and provided detailed information after the walk. His genuine affection for dogs really shines through. Highly recommend him—Misty can't wait for her next adventure!”

“Bill did a wonderful job walking Callie every day. She usually doesn’t just go off with somebody new that she’s never met. But she really liked Bill from the start. The whole week went very well. Bill is a very kind man with a warm heart toward animals. I will definitely use him again when I need somebody to watch Callie or to walk her.”

“Cassandra has been amazing! She clearly loves dogs and treats ours with so much care and affection. She’s reliable, communicative, and always goes the extra mile. We feel completely at ease knowing our dog is in such great hands. Highly recommend!”

“Leah is beyond amazing and all my fur babies loved her! She always kept in communication throughout the visits and sent me pictures and videos which made me feel so much better about leaving my babies in such good hands! Thank you Leah !!”

“I was looking for someone nearby to check in on and walk my pup, and I’m so glad Kayla was available. She was always on time, kept me updated, and took great care of Franky. Thanks again!”

“Faris is absolutely amazing with our two dogs, Benzo and Sasha! They love him so much and get so excited whenever they see him. Every time they come back from a walk, they’re happy, relaxed, and completely tired out — which is exactly what we want! Faris is reliable, caring, and clearly loves spending time with dogs. We always feel comfortable knowing Benzo and Sasha are in good hands. We highly recommend Faris to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and great with their pets!”

“Emily is an amazing pet care giver. She reliably walked and/ or played with my dog for two weeks. She was very patient with him in the beginning as they got to know one another and now they are best buds. She updated me daily on his care and habits. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her services.”

“So great and kind. I had a unique situation where he came to my hotel and sat with my pup while I was at an appointment at John’s Hopkins until my sister could come get my pup for me. Highly recommend.”

About: My name is Julia! I’m new to Rover but not new to dog sitting! I have a dog named Dixie. Dixie is a Miniature Australian Shepherd and loves to play! We love to do everything together including car rides, going to the park, stores, walks, games, and enrichment activities! I have raised dogs my whole life but now I have Dixie. I am a huge worrier about leaving my dog with someone so I understand how important it is to have a safe place for your dog while you work or have vacations and that’s what I’m here for! I think it’s important to give dogs their best life possible 🤍 All dogs must be up-to-date on their flea and heartworm medicine. For Daycare: I currently work full time. I am off on Tuesdays so I can take some bookings on Tuesdays. I am pretty open on the weekends. When I go out, I bring Dixie everywhere with me, so I can bring yours too! For Boarding: I can take dogs for boarding, however on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays your dog would have to be crated for about 3-4 hours in the afternoon since no one will be home. Saturday and Sunday boarding I would be home all day! I have a fenced yard with certain areas blocked off that Dixie or other dogs should not go into. My gate is locked. I walk Dixie once or twice a day and play outside with her. I hangout inside when it’s hot out and play inside the house! I always make sure there is water and of course plenty of treats available!
“Hossanna is an incredible dog walker! She's reliable, loves what she does, and always gives thoughtful notes and pictures during her drop ins. I would absolutely recommend booking Hossanna for all your dog care needs.”
About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs and cats since I was 8. Neighbors, friends, and coworkers have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe and entertain their pets. I currently work full time but am available 24/7 on the weekends. During the week, I can walk/feed/play morning and evening around my work schedule. I understand all pets are different and that their needs vary. I am flexible and willing to accommodate any special needs that your pet may have.

About: I had a lot of cats and dogs growing up, and I was the neighborhood dog sitter basically from the time I could ride a bike until I left for college. I know for many people today their pets are a furry part of the family, so I would treat them with the same love and care I give my cats and dobies, and make sure your animals are genuinely cared for while you are away. I know what it means to be a good and responsible sitter, and I can guarantee if you trust me with your pets you will not regret it! I'm offering drop-in sitting and dog walking, and I cannot wait to have the opportunity to meet your pets. I work full time, but am available outside of standard working hours to spend plenty of time with your pups! I have pets of my own so I know how important it is to spend time with them & make sure they are happy while you are away. When caring for pets, I always make sure to guarantee they have a comfortable and clean environment as well as plenty of play time (for their benefit & because I just love dogs!)

I can't believe it! When we left, he was biting (playfully, but still) and we come home, and he's just giving kisses and coming when we call him! I think we found the miracle dog sitter!”

“Akira had a great time with Doug! It was very comforting knowing we didn’t need to worry about her while we were away. He was very flexible with our schedule and sent us a picture every day.”
