“Shirley is the best! She is responsible, kind, and very communicative. We appreciated all the photos she shared and took comfort knowing that our puppy was in great hands with Shirley. You can tell that she is a true animal lover. Highly recommended!!”
“My pug Charlie had another wonderful time with Abbie and Peachy. Charlie feels really safe with Abbie even though she is a little anxious and Peachy is a great friend that helps Charlie to stay active and socialized especially in this cold weather. Outstanding hosts!”
“My first time booking with Wendy and everything was amazing! If we are ever in need of petsitting again, Wendy would be my first call. She was extremely communicative throughout, and sent us lots of photos and videos. My dog is a bit sensitive and like our baby, so we do not trust her in anyone’s hands. That said, I found her to be trustworthy and I knew my fur baby was in good hands!”
“Julia was terrific! She and Bailey hit it off right away. Got a bunch of pics with Bailey out for a walk, playing with toys and a restful night sleep. Will use Julia again!”
“Had to go to a funeral overseas and Grace swooped in to take care of Ranger with short notice. She did an excellent job with him all i had to provide was food. Hes very shy and timid around strangers, but he warmed up the Grace in no time.”
“My pups run to Ilona and her home when they come to stay! This is rare for my dogs as they are anxious and are homebodies. She has a wonderful environment for dogs and and Goes above and beyond for them!”
“Thank you so much for babysitting Juju and taking such wonderful care of her! You’re truly the best dog sitter ever. She absolutely loves spending time with you and Marlee—it’s clear she feels right at home with you both. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your kindness and the love you show her. Thanks again for everything! 🐾💕”
“Royce's 2nd time staying with Juliana and her family and we couldn't have been happier. They were able to get through our old man's tough exterior and his level of comfort while staying with them in their home showed in the pictures she sent. Juliana and her family not only has our trust, but most importantly Royce's!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and Emily made it such a great experience. She took great care of Lolah from April 1–11 and sent photo updates that made me feel at ease while I was away. Lolah was clearly in good hands. I would definitely book with her again—highly recommend!”
“This was Timmy’s second stay with Denis and his wife, and once again, everything was absolutely perfect. Timmy stayed with them for 12 nights, and from the moment we dropped him off, it was clear he remembered them and felt comfortable right away. He was calm, relaxed, and not nervous at all, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Denis and his wife truly treat Timmy like family. They showed him so much love, care, and attention throughout his stay, and it honestly felt like he was at his second home. We knew he was in great hands the entire time. We’re so grateful to have found sitters we completely trust, and we will absolutely continue booking with them in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for kind, reliable, and attentive pet sitters.”
“We had a unique situation that lead us to Eric and he was incredibly accommodating. I forgot my dog's bed and he was able to provide one. He took great care of our shepherd and sent us several photos to show us our dog was doing just fine. Eric is a super nice guy to boot! Would highly recommend!”
“Michele was great, she took good care of Zuko and sent a ton of pictures. She was accommodating and flexible to his needs as well. Thank you to Michele for being a great sitter”
“Nari&Ryan are perfect! Latte had a great stay with them with many loves! They shared lots of photos and videos. Will definitely come back and recommend to anyone!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 20 years and truly treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, large and small breeds, administering oral medications, feeding routines, walks, playtime, and providing lots of love and attention. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring and dependable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend care. Whether your pet needs walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, or overnight companionship, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I always communicate promptly and provide regular photo and video updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my highest priorities. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs before every booking. I follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and exercise routines exactly as requested. Whether caring for your pet in my home or yours, I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where they feel secure. I always supervise pets carefully, keep doors and gates secure, avoid unsafe situations, and send regular updates with photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away.
“I can’t say enough good things about V! It’s always hard leaving Bluey behind, but they made it so much easier by sending regular updates and photos. My dog was clearly happy, well-cared for, and relaxed when I got home. Highly recommend!”
“If you want your pup to feel like they're at a home away from home - book with Tina. She and her family (two young children who will entertain your dog endlessly) will provide a loving environment with lots of play and attention. I boarded my 7 year old pit mix for several days and he felt right at home immediately. Tina was great sharing photos and videos of Lincoln playing in the fenced in back and taking lots of walks (I think he thought twice about coming back home :)). So happy I found her.”
“Britany watched my dog Reginald while I was away on vacation. Reggie can be wary of strangers sometimes but he instantly felt comfortable with Britany, and as soon as I saw her yard full of dog toys, I knew that my pup was in good hands. Britany kept me updated throughout his visit, and he was pooped when I picked him up so he definitely had a great time. I would certainly book with Britany again.”
“Cooper has stayed with Nicole twice so far and the second time I bought him to her house, he ran inside. She seems to be very attentive and is incredibly responsive. We’ll definitely be staying here again! Thank you for the awesome experience for my dogs first boarding.”

“Michelle is Great! My 2 cats are shy which does not stop Michelle from playing the hide and seek game with them. They are getting comfortable. Next sitting they may surprise her. Would definitely have her back.”
“Kristen is very responsive during the booking process, took good care of my cat, spent time playing and petting, wrote a recap and took multiple photos so I can be reassured while traveling. Will book with Kristen again!”
“Lawrence was an amazing cat sitter! He was super responsive and friendly throughout the entire process, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away. He sent plenty of photos and updates, which I really appreciated. It was so nice to see my cat happy and well cared for. It’s clear he genuinely enjoys spending time with animals, and my cat definitely enjoyed his company. I’ll absolutely be using Lawrence’s services again. Highly recommend!”
“Shibo was absolutely amazing! I have two male cats, and one of them I had just adopted 10 days before leaving for my trip. He was very skittish when I first got him, but he warmed up to Shibo right away. My other cat took a liking to him immediately as well—who wouldn’t! Shibo was so wonderful, giving my cats the attention they needed while I was away. In the past, I relied on neighbors and people just stopping by to feed and check on them, but my experience with Shibo has completely changed my perspective. It is worth every penny to have someone as great as him looking after your fur babies! When I returned, I could see the difference in my fluffy companions in the best way as this is very early in their introduction phase. I had peace of mind knowing they were well cared for. Shibo provided fantastic updates and beautiful photos, making it clear that my cats had a wonderful time with their new friend. I have full trust in Shibo as I also came home to find everything exactly as I expected. I highly recommend Shibo for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter! Especially cats.”
“Antoinette is fantastic!! Mister Peach (my cat) and I highly recommend her. She is reliable, responsible, trustworthy, and caring... I've hired her several times to take care of Peach while I'm away and will continue to do so. 5 stars!”
About: Ever since I was 9 years old I’ve have a cat. I’m well versed in cat maintenance, medication administration, cleaning litter boxes, and feeding!

“Nasimul and Dominique are great with my cats! They send lots of pics and I can tell that the cats are excited when they visit. Highly recommend.”
“Judy has helped me countless times with Tiger. She is thoughtful and caring, and took great care of Tiger. This time I’m gone longer so I asked Judy if she could take Tiger out for a walk. She has no problem with it and took pictures when they were out. Tiger is happy and I’m thankful for Judy’s great work!”
“Brigette took amazing care of Boo. She went above and beyond to let me know how he was doing, the status of his food / wellbeing each visit and sent lots of adorable photos. She was quick to respond to my messages & questions, leaving no room for worry while I was away. I felt very at ease knowing Boo was in great hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again when I decide to take another trip. 10/10 experience, thank you Brigette!!!”
“Jason was so good with my two kittens.. He kept me updated everyday with photos and how the kittens interacted with him each day. My girl kitten was timid and didn't come out until the end but Jason sent me videos to show me she finally came out and interacted with him. Jason is professional and a super great communicator. Definitely keeping Jason as my Rover guy for all my future needs. Highly recommend.”
“Stacie took care of my two cats while I was away for an extended period. She was extremely communicative and kind and the cats were well taken care of! I could not have been happier with the experience and would book her again in a heartbeat. Thank you very much, Stacie!”
“I highly recommend Hannah’s services. She took excellent care of both of my cats, making sure they were fed and well looked after during my absence. Communication was outstanding throughout the entire process. She was reliable, professional, responsive, and provided peace of mind knowing my pets were in good hands. It is clear that she genuinely cares about animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. I would not hesitate to hire her again and would confidently recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable pet sitter.”

“We needed a super last minute dog watcher and found Emily.

We will definitely be rebooking!”

I’ve been helping take care of my sisters 10 dogs back home who range in age from puppy to senior senior. Dogs in my care includes: CHF, wheelchair bound, medication management, breathing treatments, expressing, bathing and walking. I recently moved from Cleveland to New York!

About: Every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and genuinely cared for—even when you’re away. That’s exactly the kind of care I provide. As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets are family. I share my home with my sweet 6-year-old Cavapoo and my gentle 10-year-old Scottish Fold cat, so I know firsthand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members. Before joining Rover, I worked at Dogtopia, where I cared for groups of up to 20 dogs at a time. That experience taught me how to understand different personalities, recognize body language, manage dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and ensure every pup feels safe, comfortable, and happy. When I was younger, I babysat and walked dogs for relatives and neighbors. I also know that leaving your pet can be stressful for you, too. That’s why I make communication a priority. You’ll receive regular photo updates, videos, and text messages so you can see your pet enjoying their day and have peace of mind knowing they’re in loving hands. When I care for your pet, my goal is simple: I want them to feel as comfortable, happy, and loved as they do when they’re with you. I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged family member and become someone you can count on whenever you need an extra helping hand. I am currently on summer break from college. From September 2026, I will be available to work at any time on Monday, Wednesday, Friday afternoon/evenings and Saturday and Sunday. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply quiet companionship, I’ll tailor every visit to their unique personality and routine. I believe every pet deserves individual attention, patience, and lots of affection. That is how I am with my dog Flash and my beautiful cat, Princess Leia. Honestly, no request is too much, my dog and cat both are very particular in their ways.
“Ari was great! It was my first time using Rover and he made me feel very comfortable throughout the entire process. He is very reliable and will respond to your messages right away. Tigger had great walks and I will definitely schedule more with Ari. Loved the Rover cards and the pictures!”

About: Hello fur mamas and papas! My name is Lindsay, IV been with animals literally my entire life. I've had dogs, cat, rabbits. For the past 12 years, IV had three dogs (one we need to say goodbye to after 11 years) a Rottweiler, golden retriever and a little Pekingese. As well as several cats through the years.

Because when I have to leave my animals with someone I want to know they're in the best hands (just like my children!) I love animals, going for walks, playing, bathing. Keeping company. I don't sit on my phone and call it "companionship" animals have emotions and love, and deserve to have the best of that when they're in someone else's care. I know without a doubt your fur babies are in the best hands, and you will feel so comfortable and secure as well. Thank you so much I'm currently working for myself, so this position is perfect! I love that I have the freedom to make my own hours, and do what I love. I do work as well, however I know my schedule weeks sometimes months in advance. So there would never be a conflict if a client (from Rover) scheduled with me. I live in a beautiful big house with a large backyard, completely fenced in. And dog friendly of course! In the backyard we have safe dog approved toys, dog scooper, kiddie pop up pool for the warm months. I also allow my pets I'm watching to be on the couches and beds. I also provide dog beds, water and food dishes. I'm always watching them as well. This is what I do full time and it's my passion!

“I’m so lucky to have found Ruth-Ann and Brandon. I had to take a last minute trip and was worried about finding suitable accommodations for Bleu. These two were amazing and accommodating. I got lots of pics and videos Bleu during my time away. She looked happy and comfortable and that’s all I could’ve hoped for.”
About: What sets me apart is the combination of hands-on experience, professional pet care skills, and a home environment designed around each dog’s individual needs. I have about 5 years of experience caring for dogs, including dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I pay close attention to body language, comfort level, and interactions so I can recognize when a dog is relaxed, overwhelmed, or needs more personal space. Pet care is my full-time focus, and I’m both pet CPR certified and a certified groomer. This allows me to provide attentive daily care while also helping with brushing, bathing, coat care, and general cleanliness when requested. My home has a private backyard of approximately 900 square feet for supervised outdoor play and potty breaks, along with additional rooms that allow me to separate dogs based on size, temperament, energy level, or individual comfort needs. I understand that every dog has a different routine, so I do my best to accommodate feeding schedules, sleeping preferences, sensitivities, and other special instructions from parents. I also send frequent photo and video updates throughout each stay. My goal is not only to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, but also to give parents real peace of mind while they are away. Caring for dogs is a major part of my daily life and my full-time focus. Because I have a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, outdoor play, feeding, rest time, and plenty of individual attention throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and adjusting their routine so they can feel safe, comfortable, and at home during their stay. I’m pet CPR certified and also a certified groomer, so I’m comfortable providing basic coat care, brushing, bathing, and grooming services when requested. For longer boarding stays, I’m happy to include a complimentary basic bath when appropriate. For shorter stays, bathing or grooming services can be added for an additional fee. My priority is always to provide attentive, reliable, and personalized care for every dog staying with me. I live in a clean and well-kept home with a private backyard of approximately 900 square feet, giving dogs plenty of space for supervised outdoor play, potty breaks, and fresh air throughout the day. I also have additional rooms available, which allows me to separate dogs by size, energy level, or comfort needs when necessary. This helps each dog have a safe and quiet place to rest, settle in, and decompress without feeling overwhelmed. I have a 3-year-old Border Collie who is very sweet, gentle, and full of positive energy. He has done very well with other dogs and enjoys spending time and playing with them. I carefully supervise all interactions and introduce dogs gradually, while paying close attention to their body language, personality, and comfort level. I never force dogs to interact if they need more time or personal space. Throughout the day, I provide regular potty breaks, supervised backyard time, playtime, and plenty of opportunities to relax comfortably indoors. I also try to follow each dog’s normal feeding, sleeping, and daily routine as closely as possible. Sleeping arrangements can be flexible based on the owner’s preference and the dog’s needs. For dogs who are more sensitive or feel more secure near people, I can arrange for them to sleep in the same room with me. After outdoor time, I clean the dogs’ paws to help keep them comfortable and maintain a clean living environment. I also pay attention to brushing and overall cleanliness throughout their stay. My goal is to provide a safe, structured, and welcoming home where every dog receives individualized care and owners can feel confident while they are away.
