“Took great care of StarFox! I know my dog enjoyed his stay and I appreciate all the time spent with him playing and walking. My dog had a prior injury and he got the best care and attention possible, even a visit to the vet, medical instructions, everything was taken care of. My dog was taken care of like he was family! My dog is a clever fox, so he can be a handful sometimes. Fantastic job and would definitely book again when I’m out of town. Great photos too and updates!”

“David housed and took care of Elly while I was away for 15 days. He consistently updated me with photos and message about how Elly was doing, walked her regularly, and took her to the park numerous times. If Elly needs a sitter in the future, I hope David is available!”

“So thankful to Sydney for her kindness and care looking after Dante over a long weekend. She was prompt, responsive, and professional. She sent us daily updates and photos that we looked forward to seeing as a family. Highly recommend.”

“Very happy with our experience with Katerina. She was kind, flexible, communicative and shared lots of photos of our girl Evie. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”

“Could not recommend Sanaz enough, she is communicative, charismatic and reasonably flexible about drop off and pick up. We have a big, high energy dog and he came home a tired boy!”


“Cayla and Matthew are amazing. This was Theo’s first time staying with a sitter and he had a blast. They sent so many updates via photos and videos and it made us feel so at ease while we were away. It’s not easy at all to care for a 4 month old puppy, but they went above and beyond. We will definitely have Theo stay with them again!!”

“Thank you for watching my little buddy during my trip. Updated me with pictures, gave Jesse his medicine, took him for walks and played with him. Couldn't ask for more!”

“I booked Patrice again for Minnie’s boarding, and it was once again a wonderful experience. Minnie absolutely adores Patrice and her family, who treat her like one of their own. Their small dog gang is the perfect environment for Minnie as an older Pomeranian. I always have a peace of mind leaving Minnie with Patrice and will happily continue booking with her!”


“Kyle was so great with Darcy. He met up with us prior to her stay with him to get know her a bit and find out more about her and her routine. She took to him right away which made me happy to see that I’d be leaving her with a sitter that she really liked. He provided regular updates throughout her stay and was flexible on drop-off and pick-up. I really appreciate him taking such good care of her while I was away. Would highly recommend!”

“Kira was so great with Pickles! Lucky to have found her through Rover and am so thankful she was able to watch Pickles while we were away. We also had to extend our trip by one day because our flight was cancelled due to the storm and Kira was completely willing to extend a day which was so helpful. Thank you, Kira!”

“Christine and Addison took wonderful care of Charlotte! I was a bit nervous about leaving her as she’s never boarded before and has some unique grooming needs, but I shouldn’t have worried. Christine and Addison sent so many pictures and videos and Charlotte looked as active and affectionate as always. I will definitely book with them again!”

“Joyce is very attentive & followed all of my instructions to a T! Also my shy Kitty came out to see her a couple times which is always a great sign. It is so nice to come back from a trip and see that everything has been taken care of as you would’ve done yourself. 5/5 ⭐️”

“I'm so grateful to Dani for looking after my cat Winnie so well! I really appreciated that she came to meet my cat Winnie and me in person before I left, which meant that Winnie could get to know her a bit beforehand as well. She sent so many lovely photos, and took the time to play and cuddle with my very attention-seeking kitty :) I would definitely recommend her as a cat sitter!”


“Jacky did a great job taking care of our cat! I really appreciate that she always sends pictures of the clean litter and full water while she's there. I can tell our cat really likes her!”

“Aksel did a wonderful job taking care of our cats! We booked him last minute and in a pinch, and he was patient with the many moving pieces leading up to the booking. Once at his place, the cats seemed really comfortable and happy—even the shyer of the two came out of his shell—and I felt confident that he had things under control. I’d definitely be happy to have him take care of our pets again.”


“Valeriia took care of my cat over the holidays. She was great with communication and my cat loved her! I would happily hire her again and would recommend her to others as well.”

“Giovanni took such great care of my cats! He provided detailed explanations of what was happening with my cats and took the time to get to know them and have them feel comfortable. Giovanni was punctual and communicative. I truly felt that my pets were in good hands. Would definitely hire him again!”


“Yirui was great with the cats and the apartment. She was super communicative and attentive to details. I can tell the cats loved their time with her. I hope she can look after the cats again in the future!”

“Jessie was amazing! She was communicative and very attentive throughout the whole process. She made me feel completely at ease while I was traveling. I would absolutely book with her again!”

“Nicole took great care of our cat when we were out of town for a few days! She was consistent in her visits, and our cat acted like we had never left when we got back.”


“Julija is the best!! I'm new to Rover and was a little nervous, especially since my cat has never been alone for a long stretch of time before, let alone with a new human as a sitter! However at first meet I immediately connected with her and knew she would be a trustworthy and attentive friend for my kitty (: He absolutely loved her and even started greeting her at the door after a few days (!!), and she took the extra care with him to make sure he was comfy, happy, and played with so he wouldn't be lonely (a big worry of mine going in). She sent sooo many pictures and was really communicative during my whole time away, giving me total peace of mind. Just a few days in and I knew I would be booking her again! Highly recommend Julija - she will take great care of your fur babies, accommodate to their needs, and keep you updated every step of the way!”

“Marie was perfect for drop in visits for our 2 cats! She is extremely caring and attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure our boys felt loved. Communication with us was prompt and thorough, which was much appreciated!”

“Matthew went above and beyond watching over my two cats! I was so impressed with how respectful he was not only of my pets but my apartment as well. Seriously. When I came back he had re-made my bed, washed some utensils I had forgot in the sink, even took out the cat litter and trash, all without me asking. For anyone looking for a great drop-in sitter, Matthew is your guy. I was a little worried about whether my cats would eat enough with me gone, so Matthew was super observant of their eating habits and was able to adjust their feeding amounts on the fly. All the while being very responsive and providing me daily updates and photos. Will definitely go to him the next time I need to leave the city :)”


“Chris was incredibly communicative and did a great job taking care of our cat. He went above and beyond two times - once when he cleaned up a hairball that our cat threw up and another when he had to change his schedule to accommodate watching our cat during a day when there were issues getting into our building. I highly recommend Chris to anyone looking for a petsitter that you can trust!”


“Christine and Addison have been amazing both times they have watched our kitties. One of the cats needs a couple of medicines and is really particular about his food and I never worry that he’s not going to get what he needs when they’re watching them!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have spent my life caring for them, including helping care for my family’s beloved senior dog, who is now 14 years old. Looking after an older dog has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and paying close attention to their individual needs and comfort. As a high school science teacher, I’m responsible, dependable, and organized. I understand how important routines are, so I’ll make sure your dog sticks to their normal schedule for meals, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and lots of love and attention. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m currently on summer break from teaching, so I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day. During the school year, I’m available before and after school, on weekends, holidays, and school breaks. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and keep you updated while you’re away. I live in a very dog-friendly apartment building with plenty of nearby walking areas. I’m happy to care for your pet in my home or yours, whatever you’re most comfortable with. I’ll follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions carefully, and I’ll provide regular photo updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“This was Colby’s first day care with Jodie, and she was absolutely wonderful! From the start, she was very communicative and kind, making sure we felt comfortable and informed throughout the day. Colby seemed happy and relaxed when we picked him up, which says it all. We really appreciated how attentive and caring she was. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Paula took excellent care of my puppy Molly, she stayed with her for a day while I was away. They had great time together and I see that Molly really loves her! We will be definitely coming again.”

“Adrienne was so accommodating and friendly with my Milobear. I really thank her for helping in a tight timeframe and for giving Milo great comfort (He didn’t want to leave our house that day). Loved the advice and consistant updates throughout the evening!”

“Jade & Matthew were so great with my dog, Morris! They were very communicative and Morris quickly felt comfortable during his stay. I would book them again!”

“Yirui took such great care of my pup Naomi. Yirui asked detailed questions to ensure that she provided continuity and routine for Naomi, while also giving her a comfortable space to have fun and feel at home. She sent updates and pics throughout the day that made me feel at ease. The best part is that Naomi has made a new friend with Yirui’s pup Julie!”

“Rebecca was wonderful! She agreed to watch Pico on very short notice, which I really appreciated. She made him feel comfortable right away, made sure he ate his food, and he was relaxed enough to settle in and take a nap. It gave me real peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Rebecca again.”

“Deirdre was absolutely wonderful! She was super communicative and warm, and our dog loved her right away. It was clear she was great with her and really cared about making her comfortable.

“Jonathan was awesome! He took great photos of my pup’s stay & I could tell she was very comfortable with him. Will definitely reach out again soon!”

“Danny was my 3rd sitter on Rover after the first two people that I found left me feeling incredibly nervous and uneasy about my puppy’s safety. With Danny, so many of my old concerns melted away in our very first meeting. He was so patient with me as a new pet owner and was so loving to my very high energy puppy. Every day that Danny has sat my dog, I have gotten texts, picture, and video updates. Danny even went out of his way on multiple occasions to walk Miso back to my place without charge. And he has helped orient my puppy to other dogs and given me every reassurance that, no matter what, my dog would be safe with him. There is no one else on Rover that I trust more than Danny and I feel so grateful that I found him!”

“Hyeyoung was super kind and lovely, and my dog Indie had a comfortable stay for eight hours during the day. She was responsive, accommodating, and did everything she could to make sure Indie was comfortable. Would highly recommend to anyone with a small dog ☺️”

“Kira is so wonderful with Clifford; caring, kind, and fun. Clifford really gets along with Footsie, and they play very well. Her setup with the dog park in the building is beyond ideal. We’re so thrilled to have found such a great fit for us! Clifford pulls on his leash so hard to get to Kira’s place any time we’re in the vicinity.”

“Maadiah is the absolute best!! I have a dog who is reactive to strangers and dogs on walks, and Maadiah was amazing with him. She made him feel so comfortable and with permission stayed with him after, which was life changing in making him feel comfortable. She also was great about sending pictures and updates and caught that his poop was weird (and even took a picture which was useful at the vet). Overall, I cannot recommend Maadiah higher and would 100% book with her again.”

“Christopher is great! Another great walk for Scout and an amazing write up with lots of pictures for mom and dad. Christopher even brought in our mail. Thank you!”

“Ann was fantastic with my dog Marbles. This was my first time using the Rover app. Ann went out of her way to make me comfortable. She even met me and my dog in person the day before I needed to use her walking services! She’s extremely responsible and answered my messages in a timely manner. She also gave us a thorough report of how Marbles did on her walk. I’d highly recommend using her!”

It was obvious that Ayush genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs and treated our puppy like part of the family. We especially appreciated our puppy having new friends to play with (Ayush’s dogs). We would absolutely book with Ayush again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy person to board with.”
