“Sayarlin was an amazing sitter for my dog Storm and my cat Jelly Bean. Not only did she take wonderful care for them by creating a cozy space that feels like home, but she provided reassurance through daily updates while I was away. She is an effective communicator and responds swiftly. The pets loved staying with her, too. I will definitely be keeping her in mind for future boarding!”


“Iliana took really good care of my Chloe. I received daily pics and updates. She was very responsive when I reached out to checkin. I greatly appreciate her services.”


“This was the first time being away from our dog and Nicole did a great job at making him and my family feel at ease! She regularly kept me updated with messages and pictures and took very good care of him. Will definitely use her again!”

“Naomi is absolutely AMAZING!!!! If you have any worries about leaving your fur baby with someone new, you can rest easy with her. I trusted my 16-year-old pup in her care, and she kept me updated every single day with photos, videos, and sweet messages. I never once had to worry. In fact, when we left, he cried in the car because he already missed her! I’m beyond grateful to have found Naomi and would recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, trustworthy pet caregiver—she’s truly worth it!”


“Alyona is very kind, understanding and had me at ease knowing that my boys was in her care. I received plenty of pictures and communicated with her while I was away and knew that tigger, prince and lucky would have a great time with Alyona. My boys do miss her and I will recommend and will book again. Thanks so much!”


“Jialarie treated our kitties like they were her own and sent us pictures of them each day along with frequent updates. Would definitely recommend her services”


“5 STARS!!!! Victor is a loving and talented pet person. He saved me in a last minute travel situation! I have a big & powerful dog who is doing her best to be good & calm, but does not always nail it! He was AMAZING with her!! I could tell that she felt totally comfortable and loved the whole 2 weeks I was gone. He walked her a lot and was very understanding about her special attributes & need to destroy toys. She slept in bed with him & was allowed on the couch, which was really comforting for her. I booked him the day before I left town and he was professional, pleasant & flexible with timing. He obviously has a great connection with animals & is an overall lovely person to communicate with on the daily (he sent pics & videos everyday). This is the first time I have picked her up after being away that she is genuinely happy & chill. Def book him!! I have recommended him to my whole family & all of my loved ones who own dogs. He lives on a quiet street with really wide sidewalks, good if your dog has dog reactivity. Perfect experience from start to finish.”

“Natali took wonderful care of Griffin while I was away. She was very patient with all of his quirks and special needs. She was very communicative and regularly let me know how he was doing. I really felt like she made Griffin very comfortable in her home and cared for him as if he were her own. I’m also very grateful to her for being so accommodating when I realized at the last minute that I had booked for the wrong dates! I would absolutely trust her to watch Griffin again in the future.”

“Binta could NOT have been better. Igot wonderful pictures of my dog, looking comfortable and content. My "pup" is 9 years old and has not ever been away from me for more than 1 day. A bond was instantly formed. I felt very comfortable leaving Perdita with Binta. It was perfect.”

“Mariana was so communicative and took such great care of my dog. Agnes clearly enjoyed her time with Mariana. Thank you so much. I will definitely contact you, again.”

“Euitae was great with my puppy! Communicated with me well throughout the time, sent photos and videos. I felt comfortable leaving her with a new boarder and would work with Euitae again!”

“Our dog Jupiter stayed for 10 days with Alanis and Marco. They went well above to take care of Jupiter, taking him to the park several times, sending us videos and photos 3x a day to keep us well updated on everything. It was perfect!!”

“Kessy was amazing with Foley! I had a last minute cancellation 10 days before leaving for Europe and Kessy was happy to help me out. Foley made herself right at home and got tons of snuggles from Kessy in return. She was responsive, polite and kept me well informed. I would definitely recommend and book Kessy again!”

“Anali was AWESOME!! I never once found myself wondering what my Appa was doing because she made sure to keep me updated! From morning/afternoon walks, to play time, Appa meeting friends, and even about Appa being super picky with his food — she kept me in the loop. She sent me multiple pictures and videos throughout the day, and even offered training tips. Appa had soooo many other friends with him this weekend, and all of them got along great! I will 100% be keeping Anali as my pet sitter and recommend her to others ☺️☺️☺️”

“Samantha is such a blessing to my dog and I. I needed care and support watching my toy poodle and she came through!! My dog really likes her! I can tell when I come to pick him up - he has enjoyed his stay! I look forward to booking her again !!”

“Bridget was wonderful. Zuko, my 14-pound Shihpooh, had a happy and relaxed time in her home. I could tell he was comfy and well cared for. Highly recommend.”

“Ir was a last minute request and I was fearful to trust anyone with Coco. But Jatna kept me updated with my 6 months old filled with energy frenchie with texts and photos easing my anxiety. Now I have a place to trust leaving Coco when needed. Thank you, Jatna!”

“Laudianny was the perfect sitter for my most precious possession Ted! She provided daily updates and it seemed like he got comfortable quickly. Within a day he was making biscuits with her so i know he was well cared for!”

“This is the second time I left Sherlock with Lilyana. She was incredibly supportive and caring towards him. She consistently shared updates about him and was proactive in communicating with me.”

“This was my first time using Rover. My husband and I were extremely pleased with the platform as it allowed us to narrow down our options and led us to Nicole. We had a limited amount of time to select and hire a sitter before we left for our trip. Nicole took time out of her vacation to meet with us virtually over Zoom and made us feel really comfortable leaving our baby in her care. She checked in daily and shared updates and photos. Our kitty seemed very happy when we returned home. We will absolutely be requesting her as a sitter again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving caretaker for their furbaby.”

About: Hi my name is Brandon. I was raised in New York and have owned a few dogs over the years. I have about 12 years of experience walking and sitting for different breeds of dogs including stubborn bulldogs, hyper huskies, large golden retrievers, etc. I'm available all days, mostly afternoons and nights. I'll walk in any weather conditions, whether it's snowing, raining or scorching hot. I will be sure to care for your dog and they are my own because I know how much they mean to you. I can run and play with your dog or I can take it easy. I will make sure to log and report any physical and behavioral changes I observe while on a walk or while pet sitting.
About: Hi! I’m [Your Name], a passionate dog lover and dedicated pet care professional. With years of hands-on experience walking and caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, I treat every pup like they’re my own. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a long adventure walk, or just some extra love and attention, I’m here to make sure your furry friend is happy, healthy, and safe. Reliability, communication, and genuine care are at the heart of everything I do. Let me give your dog the love and exercise they deserve — tails will wag, I promise! On an average I run 4-6 miles daily. As a digital artist who works from home I tend to find myself with a lot of energy left and lots of times I would rather spend with animals and being active at that. As a husky owner and a dog that needs lots of attention and walks, my dog is my best friend. He runs with me a lot, and I care for my dog as well as my other pets very attentive, extremely nurturing (it’s a habit), and with so much play time.

About: I have experience caring for my own cat and have spent a lot of time researching proper cat care, nutrition, behavior, enrichment, grooming, and keeping a clean environment. I’m very attentive to a cat’s individual needs and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. While I don’t have professional pet-sitting experience yet, I’m responsible, patient, and eager to provide the same level of care and attention I give my own cat.
“Albena took great care of my cat while I was away for a week. She kept me updated with pictures and showed immense care for my kitty :) very knowledgeable and professional with cat care.”


“Jialarie was absolutely great, she was very kind and always kept me updated on my fur babies, even sent pictures. She was overall wonderful and made sure they was kept good.”


About: I’m a loving, patient, and attentive pet sitter with experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra care. I’ve cared for a 3 month-old Husky for two weeks, handling everything from feeding and bathing to training, playtime, and daily care. I’ve also traveled out of state to care for three dogs and a cat, including an 18 year-old senior dog with a detailed medication and supplement schedule. What sets me apart is that I truly pay attention to the little things. I understand how important it is to follow each pet’s normal routine, so I carefully follow feeding instructions, diets, walking schedules, medications, and any other special requests. Most importantly, I make sure pets get plenty of love, cuddles, attention, and companionship while their owners are away. I’ll care for your pets with the same patience, responsibility, and love I would want someone to give my own. I currently work part-time about 3–4 days a week, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. On my days off, I have open availability throughout the entire day, allowing me to easily accommodate walks, feedings, playtime, check-ins, and longer stays. Even on the days I work, my flexible schedule allows me to plan ahead and make sure each pet receives the time, attention, and care they need. I’m happy to work with each owner’s preferred routine because I know consistency is important for keeping pets comfortable and happy while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I carefully follow all instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, supplements, playtime, and any special care needs. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I also keep their environment clean, refresh their food and water as needed, and pay close attention to any changes in their behavior or needs. For pets who require extra care, such as puppies or senior pets, I’m comfortable following more detailed routines and providing additional patience and attention. Most importantly, I respect my clients’ homes and aim to keep their pet’s routine as normal as possible so they can feel relaxed and cared for until their family returns.
“I would give Hadley 10 stars! This is the first time we had someone who wasn't a close friend care for our kitties. I was nervous, especially because Twinkle's diet and medication are a little complicated, and she doesn't like everyone, she's picky. But I could see when we met Hadley that they had a calm and loving temperament, and took the best care possible of our babies. Hadley's communication skills both with us and the kitts were great, and allowed us to enjoy our time away without worries. Also, great pictures and comments every day!”


“Lili took care of our cat, Mishmish, while we were on vacation. She followed instructions to the T, and our elderly cat, who is usually pretty lethargic and not overly friendly, warmed up to her. We came back to clean litter box, swept floors, and our cat having fresh water and food. We will absolutely work with Lili again when we travel for extended period of time, and highly recommend her to any pet owner.”


“Fallon was a fantastic cat sitter for our cat, Yuki. She was professional and flexible, accepting our last-minute request and handling a slight mix-up we caused with ease. She sent us daily photo updates, which made us feel completely at ease during our two-week vacation. We came home to a happy cat and highly recommend her!”


“Marion did a wonderful job taking care of our old cat, Asia! Marion spent quality time with our girl each visit, giving Asia the love she needed. Marion is great with communication and sent us text updates, videos and photos throughout her visits. She also did the necessary cleaning and feeding thoughtfully and thoroughly. Marion really loves animals and works with a high level of professionalism.”

“Bryan was phenomenal! I am very protective of my baby boy but my partner and I were in need of a last minute sitter and Bryan was our pick because of the other reviews. He was friendly and sent pics during Brodee’s stay! Bryan even spoke to Brodee in Spanish which is Brodee’s first language so that was an added bonus. Brodee already loves Bryan. We 100% recommend and will request him again next time we are in town. Muchas Gracias, Bryan!”

About: We’re Justin and Esther—animal lovers with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Justin has had pets his whole life, starting with a sweet cat named China, who had a litter of kittens he raised until their passing. Today, we care for Lunae Lux, our energetic Siberian Husky, and Fayth, Justin’s affectionate cat. For Esther, being surrounded by animals was always a dream—and marrying Justin made it a reality. It’s allowed her to bond deeply with both Lunae and Fayth, fulfilling her lifelong wish to share her days with furry companions. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or training, we’re passionate about giving every pet the care and love they deserve. Animals are the first and most important priority of the day, afternoon and night. They are like children in that aspect, or fur children as people say. My cat and dog get along very well. I have trained my Siberian Husky to be more understanding and caring to smaller animals such as cats.
“Lucy is taking Dobby for 1-h walks twice a week. He was a little shy to go at the beginning but then came back very happy. They go to the park and he seemed to have lots of fun! Thank you, Lucy!”

“Sayarlin was an amazing sitter for my dog Storm and my cat Jelly Bean. Not only did she take wonderful care for them by creating a cozy space that feels like home, but she provided reassurance through daily updates while I was away. She is an effective communicator and responds swiftly. The pets loved staying with her, too. I will definitely be keeping her in mind for future boarding!”


“This was the first time being away from our dog and Nicole did a great job at making him and my family feel at ease! She regularly kept me updated with messages and pictures and took very good care of him. Will definitely use her again!”

“Naomi is absolutely AMAZING!!!! If you have any worries about leaving your fur baby with someone new, you can rest easy with her. I trusted my 16-year-old pup in her care, and she kept me updated every single day with photos, videos, and sweet messages. I never once had to worry. In fact, when we left, he cried in the car because he already missed her! I’m beyond grateful to have found Naomi and would recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, trustworthy pet caregiver—she’s truly worth it!”


“Alyona is very kind, understanding and had me at ease knowing that my boys was in her care. I received plenty of pictures and communicated with her while I was away and knew that tigger, prince and lucky would have a great time with Alyona. My boys do miss her and I will recommend and will book again. Thanks so much!”


“Jialarie treated our kitties like they were her own and sent us pictures of them each day along with frequent updates. Would definitely recommend her services”

“Natali took wonderful care of Griffin while I was away. She was very patient with all of his quirks and special needs. She was very communicative and regularly let me know how he was doing. I really felt like she made Griffin very comfortable in her home and cared for him as if he were her own. I’m also very grateful to her for being so accommodating when I realized at the last minute that I had booked for the wrong dates! I would absolutely trust her to watch Griffin again in the future.”

“Binta could NOT have been better. Igot wonderful pictures of my dog, looking comfortable and content. My "pup" is 9 years old and has not ever been away from me for more than 1 day. A bond was instantly formed. I felt very comfortable leaving Perdita with Binta. It was perfect.”

“Anali was AWESOME!! I never once found myself wondering what my Appa was doing because she made sure to keep me updated! From morning/afternoon walks, to play time, Appa meeting friends, and even about Appa being super picky with his food — she kept me in the loop. She sent me multiple pictures and videos throughout the day, and even offered training tips. Appa had soooo many other friends with him this weekend, and all of them got along great! I will 100% be keeping Anali as my pet sitter and recommend her to others ☺️☺️☺️”


“My first impression of Vivian and her husband was very positive and their hospitality even more so. I highly recommend Vivian to board/pet sit your precious best friends. She is very attentive and texted me everyday about my cat and sent me photos of her.”

“Essence is the best! I know my dogs are in great hands with her. She is always flexible with us, she sends us updates without us having to ask, my dogs are always happy when they leave her place. She is the best and I am so grateful for her. Xoxo thank you Essence.”

“Noelle was amazing with Babka! He has such a wonderful time and was so happy. We felt comfortable with Noelle and confident that Babka was in great hands. It was so great that Babka had a backyard to run around in and get so much love from Noelle. This was our first time using a sitter since Babka is only 8 months old and we would trust him with Noelle 100%!”

“We picked up our large malamute Junie and she was the calmest we had seen her, clearly very happy. Communication with Anton was very easy and he sent several pictures throughout the stay. Will book again!”

“Ryan and Jefra are the best sitters any pets could ever have! Thank you for taking such great care of our doggos. Will definitely book your services again!”

“Imari provided exceptional care for my Labrador Retriever. She adhered to his walking and feeding schedules, and my dog seemed to really enjoy his time with her. I would highly recommend her and intend on using her again in the future.”

“Priscilla was wonderful with our dog Lucy, she takes this job seriously and is very professional from the moment we started talking about the dog sitting. Lucy was a happy pup during her stay!”
“Eric was so accommodating with my last minute need for a dog sitter for Cubby! Very attentive and communicative and so loving to my baby boy! Would definitely recommend!”

“I’m a first time Rover user and Omar went above and beyond to make everything super easy. I had to head out of town kind of last minute and needed boarding for my Pitbull Border Collie mix, Sage. We met up beforehand so he could meet her and I could meet him, and I really can’t say enough good things. Omar made me feel at ease right away and was great with Sage. She was instantly comfortable around him. When I dropped her off she didn’t even look back at me, which honestly says it all. He sent daily updates with pictures and videos, and was always on time for drop off and pickup. Definitely a 10/10 experience. I’ll absolutely be booking with Omar again. 🐐”

“I had a great experience with Brandon. He took excellent care of my dog during his stay, providing regular updates and lots of playtime. My dog came home happy and well-cared-for. I am very satisfied and will definitely use his services again. Highly recommend!”

“I highly recommend Victoria! She provided fantastic overnight care for our Luna while we were away for an entire week. Victoria communication was excellent from the very first inquiry.”
