“Emily and her family were amazing. She was very attentive to my older dog and was great with giving me updates and pictures. He even got to meet goats!!! Thank you so much Emily I will definitely use you again. I highly recommend”
“Alex was the first host I used on Rover. I was a bit worried about using this app, but Alex made my first experience amazing! She is so friendly and truly has a heart for animals. I have already booked with her a few times since and my doggo loves to stay with her. She is very flexible and has even dropped my dog back off to me. I can’t recommend her enough! Thank you Alex for taking such good care of Amani!”
“Zeke had so much with Dajon and his family , anytime I need a sitter or dog daycare , I would choose him every time, he kept me updated with pics and videos the whole time he had Zeke.”
“We felt very comfortable our pup was getting the best care while staying with Ellen. She had great communication throughout the process and we so appreciated the pic/video updates she shared with us!”
“Karen truly is the best. We have a very energetic pup and finding someone to watch him has not been the easiest. Karen is so kind and caring with our dog just loves her!”
“Mary was wonderful! She sent at least one update a day, usually more, and my high energy doodle had such a great time with her and her husband and their own dogs. He got lots and lots of exercise with regular walks and zoomies in their giant backyard. We’d love to use Mary again!”
“Best Dog Sitters ever!! I would highly recommend. Very Clean Home. Friendly and made Bronco feel comfortable. They sent pictures of my puppy reassuring he was safe and in good hands! I can truly say I’ll be booking with them all the time! They made my Vacation a Breeze.”
“I can’t say enough great things about Victoria and the care she provided for my dog, Louise. Louise stayed with her for 9 days, and it’s clear she had an absolute blast the entire time. Normally, Louise is full of non-stop energy, but when she got home, she was completely tuckered out—in the best way possible! That alone told me she had a fun, active, and fulfilling stay. Victoria went above and beyond to make sure Louise felt at home. She provided updates throughout the stay, was super communicative, and treated Louise like one of her own. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such capable and caring hands. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely loves dogs and gives them the time, attention, and love they deserve, Victoria is the one. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book with her again. Thank you, Victoria, for taking such amazing care of Louise!”
“Maolin was the best and took such good care of Avery! She sent daily updates of their adventures on walks and to the dog park. With her we knew our pup was safe and happy over a long trip out of town!”
“Highly recommend Tamisha for boarding services! She sent multiple updates with pictures and I could tell my puppy Wilson was happy and worn out when I got him. Will definitely be booking with her again”
“Emily responded quickly, sent pics of my boys playing in the yard. She said they didn't eat much the first day but that's to be expected because they get anxious being left behind. But having boarded my dog tigger before he's usually anxious for days after being picked up and didn't have that this time, so that tells me a lot. ”
“Dawn was incredible. From the warm welcome upon my last minute business trip in which Atticus couldn’t join. Dawn provided fresh chicken and daily walks and her updates were detailed and lovely. Such a wonderful experience. Will be back. Thank you!”
“Joy filled in when our regular sitter was on vacation and I can’t recommend her enough. We got daily updates (at minimum) and lots of pictures during our dogs’ week-long stay. Communication was great and the dogs were so loved on! She was very accommodating and has a perfect space for pup sitting. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again and hope we have another chance!”
“Travis was amazing. So accommodating and communicative. He sent lots of pictures and daily updates. My little guy had a blast hanging out with Travis & Ginger I'll definitely be booking with him again.”
“Deanna took great care of our pup and was sure to send lots of updates with cute photos and videos. Our dog had fun playing with hers and running around in her spacious yard!”

“Ellie did a fantastic job looking after our cat for a week. He’s shy with new people but warmed up to her quickly. Ellie’s communication was great. She left us regular updates with pictures. Would highly recommend and use her services again.”

“Madison was wonderful and accommodating with our cats' needs and quirks. We appreciated her communication and the pictures she left with each visit, and we're sure our cats appreciated the attention she offered with play and pets. We felt both our cats and our home were in good hands with Madison.”
“I can't reccomend Taylor enough! She took such good care of my cats and lizard while we were on vacation for a week. We have a very shy and standoffish cat and it was clear to me that Taylor made them all feel so safe and comfortable based on how willing the cats were to let her snap pics of them every day - shes a great photographer too! Great communication, punctual, flexible (thank you again for feeding and keeping an eye on our bearded dragon!), and just all around a wonderful sitter who we will absolutely be booking with again. I would trust her in my home and with my pets any day. Thank you Taylor!”
“Madie was awesome! Accommodated a last minute request and provided great communication the entire time I was away. Would definitely use her services again.”
“Heather did a fantastic job taking care of my kitty! She even sent videos and pictures for the two days I was gone which gave me peace of mind. Highly recommend booking her!”

She sent us videos and photos while we were away and our dog looked so happy in all of them. I would highly recommend her, and we will definitely book with her again.”
“Victoria took care of our kitty and our home for two weeks. She was very easy to talk with when we met and followed instructions. She sent photos and updates and kept me posted. Everything was as we left it and most importantly my kitty was happy and relaxed. He doesn’t appear to have missed me at all. I highly recommend her and will be hiring her again!”
“Savannah was awesome for a last minute booking and made me feel so confident with leaving my fur babies. She did a great job with managing medications and cats that eat separate foods. Plus she sent tons of photos!!”
“My kitties had great visits with Merri! I contacted her with very short notice but everything worked out smoothly and wonderfully. I will definitely contact her again in the future and recommend her to anyone with four-footers - both cats (I have four) and dogs!”
“JoVonna is so great! I’ve rebooked her several times — I travel frequently and sometimes last minute. Really appreciate of her availability and she’s very patient with my shy little bebe and I know she’ll be well taken care of with her.”
About: Cats have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve spent years living with, caring for, and learning from cats with a wide variety of personalities and needs. Today, I share my home with multiple cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone who will care for your feline family members as if they were their own. In addition to my personal experience, I spent two years working in an animal shelter, one year working at a boarding facility, and privately pet-sitting, where I cared for cats of all ages, temperaments, and backgrounds. My experience includes working with friendly and social cats, as well as shy, fearful, feral, and semi-feral cats who require extra patience and understanding. I understand that not every cat wants immediate attention, and I’m happy to let them set the pace while building trust. Whether your cat enjoys play sessions, treats, brushing, medication administration, or simply having a calm and reliable person maintain their routine, I strive to provide care tailored to their individual needs. I pay close attention to behavior and body language and am committed to making your cat feel safe, comfortable, and respected while you’re away. I know how much peace of mind matters when you’re trusting someone with your pets, so I provide regular updates and photos throughout my visits. My goal is for both you and your cat to feel comfortable, confident, and stress-free while you’re apart.
“Asiah provides peace of mind every time I need to travel, whether a few days for work or for 7+ days on vacation. She’s so reliable and conscientious, I never have to worry.”
About: I frequently pet sit / house for friends and family, and enjoy it - so I figured why not try out Rover to make some extra cash while giving pets and their owners the comfort of knowing their furry loved ones are safe/happy in their own home.
“Highly recommend Autumn! She truly cares deeply about animals. I had peace of mind knowing my cat was in such great hands— she even brought him a Christmas treat and toy which he loved!”
“Kam did the job as requested keeping my kitties sane and fed in their family's absence. It was a great help because our regular sitter was unexpectedly unavailable and I had only a matter of hours to secure a new sitter. They were responsive and made themselves available to us on very short notice. I greatly appreciated that-- then I could go on our family vacation with our worries.”

“Our puppy loved Patricia! She is very reliable and trustworthy. She took the time to teach our puppy how to sit, worked on walking on a leash, took out our trash, and even brought her own broom to sweep up any mulch the puppy may have brought in. We finally feel like we found a great petsitter for Honey and will be booking with her again!”
“Elizabeth was great with Benji, she took pictures, and he came home tired and loved. He really enjoyed his time with Elizabeth and Mary Jane, we can’t wait to come back!”
“Kieran and Nicole are so awesome! They've been doing doggy daycare for my pup Ube; they take great care of him and take lots of cute pics. 🥺 I'm so glad he gets to spend time in the yard and have company all day. He's gotten very comfortable with them and comes home happy. PLUS they are always so flexible with me when sometimes I make last minute bookings! So helpful.”
“Breslin had a great time and was very tired afterwards. She also updated me throughout the day and made time to fit him into her schedule somewhat last minute. Will leave Breslin with her again if needed ?”
“Simon was amazing with Hazel! He kept us updated with pictures and messages throughout the day. Hazel came home worn out from all the fun she had at Simon’s. We’re incredibly grateful for his patience, especially since Hazel is still learning her manners after we adopted her from the shelter a few months ago. Simon even went the extra mile by helping teach her commands. He’s been wonderful, and we’ll definitely be reaching out to him for care again in the future.”
“Sean has been awesome with my puppy! I can already see the positive changes in my baby Oso in the last two days. My puppy is tired and worn out from playing all day, he's going potty outside for Sean and l (which is a blessing) and he's doing so much better with his anxiety about car rides after Sean had suggested playing relaxation music in the car. Sean is a God send! I'll defiantly book with him again!”
“Travis was so kind and accommodating to our girl. He was able to fit us in for daycare at his house last minute. He was very patient with our dog as she has some separation anxiety and is obviously experienced with different dogs personalities. We hope that our dog get to hang out with Travis and Ginger again soon!”
“Sox and I LOVE Dawn and Spike. Dawn takes the best care of our boy and we never have to worry, which is such a blessing. Spike is so much fun and Sox always comes home zonked. There really is no one better!”
“Michele is a very kind, animal loving, and extremely knowledgeable on pet care. With two days of day care in her home, my rescue puppy now is much more confident than she was before meeting Michele. She got plenty of exercise and attention!”
“Jodi accepted my last minute request and did an amazing job caring for our pup! Benny is pooped after playing all day and her backyard is great for dogs that like to sniff and have space to run. Thanks again!”
“Michelle was fantastic! Reached out on short notice & she happily watched my pup. She was very responsive the whole day, sending pictures and videos with updates. Tucker had a great time, I will certainly be a returning client! Highly suggest to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Dexter enjoyed his time with Sydney and her beagle. He showed no hesitancy when I dropped him off each morning, so I know he was treated well. I enjoyed Sydney's messages and pictures to me of Dexter.”
“I was so pleased with the services provided by Amber while watching my little one. She interacted with her wonderfully and gave her lots and lots of attention. Amber kept me updated with pictures and messages and I feel truly comfortable with leaving my dog with her, and I look forward to the next opportunity.”

I work as an elementary school teacher during the majority of the year, but I love to help care for your pets when I can!

About: As an independent contractor, I make my own schedule. This allows me to operate on a very flexible calendar. In addition to being the go-to care taker for the pets in my circle, I also have a lifestyle that allows for me to go the extra mile and hangout longer, play more, and go for longer walks! I currently make my own schedule. So pet care fits in tremendously. I work as a freelance film and commercial laborer. Being in charge of my calendar allows me to schedule accordingly to take care of your pet! Having two cats of my own, while I can't house animals at my own residence, I am very familiar with the needs of pets. Playtime, treats, head scratches, and the like. I love every animal deeply and with a great respect. I treat every space with the utmost dignity and try to keep as small of a footprint as possible when entering someone's home. I have been house sitting, dog/cat watching for many years now. I look forward to ensuring you have an enjoyable, trustworthy experience when working with me.

About: As a dedicated high school teacher with grown children, I lead a fulfilling life. Alongside my two dog companions, who thoroughly enjoy the company of other canines, my affection for both animals and people knows no bounds. Recognizing the significance of reliability, trustworthiness, and patience, I believe it is crucial to engage with animals in a joyful manner. Effective communication with the family concerning their beloved furry friend is of utmost importance to me, and I consider regular check-ins to be an added advantage. I will wholeheartedly care for your furry companion, treating them as if they were my very own, offering abundant cuddles, kisses, and plenty of playtime. Pets may find it challenging to be separated from their families, but rest assured, I will prioritize your pet's comfort while under my care.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family fostered and cared for cats, which sparked my lifelong passion for animal care and behavior. Professionally, I’ve worked in a dog daycare, pet store, and boarding environment, and have spent the past two years working at an animal shelter. Through these roles, I’ve gained hands on experience caring for cats, dogs, reptiles, and small mammals. I am comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and have experience working with canines who have behavioral challenges such as stranger danger, reactivity, and resource guarding. I am trained in reading canine body language and adjusting my approach to help pets feel safe and comfortable. Cats are also a particular passion of mine. In addition to caring for social cats, I have experience socializing feral and semi-feral cats and working with shy or nervous kitties who need extra patience and understanding. I am also comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and caring for multi-pet households. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I currently work at an animal shelter Wednesday through Saturday. Because of this, I am primarily available Sundays through Tuesdays for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting services. I may have drop in availability the other days after 7 pm. I do my best to keep my availability up to date and will always communicate clearly about scheduling so you know exactly what to expect. My goal is to keep your pets as comfortable as possible by maintaining their normal routine while you’re away. I understand that every pet has different needs, personalities, and comfort levels, so I tailor my care to each individual animal. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, enrichment activities, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and respectful presence nearby, I am happy to meet them where they are. I prioritize safety, patience, and positive interactions, especially with nervous or shy pets. Communication is extremely important to me. During visits, I provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.
