“Lorraine does an amazing job. She is so sweet and kind. I have taken my boy to other sitters where he seemed to be anxious right off the bat. With Lorraine he immediately was calmed by her presence. She is one of the best rover sitters in my opinion and I highly recommend. Thank you again Lorraine. :)”
“This was our first time using Marian as a Rover sitter. She allowed me into her home to view the areas my dogs would be kept. It was a beautiful space and I didn't hesitate to leave them in her good hands. Within an HOUR or two of drop-off - we had an unexpected situation when one of our dogs became very stressed and sick due to the new environment. Marian kept me informed right away, was incredibly patient and compassionate and worked with me to come up with the best solution for my dogs. She even transported them to our home and transitioned our booking to drop in visits - which I so appreciated. She was kind, flexible, understanding - even after my dog had multiple accidents in her home - which had never happened before. She reassured us that she was a professional and used to these situations. We were able to proceed with our booked getaway ONLY because of Marians professionalism and kindness and flexibility. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and professional sitter.”
“This is the second time we have boarded with Ms. Anna - I cannot say enough praise - she is amazing with our high energy Husky! She sent updates and photos and genuinely loves animals. She is our go-to caregiver :)”
“Debbie and her husband, Phil are truly the best dog sitters! I don’t ever worry when my dog, Jasper is there. She is so gracious to send a lot of pictures and videos. Her huge fenced in yard is amazing. Jasper loves to run with the other dogs. When I picked up Jasper this last time, he actually started to pull on his leash back towards Debbie’s to go back inside! Lol I give them 5 stars always, they deserve it!”
“Kira was great to work with! I reached out to her last minute and she was extremely accommodating and easy going. I boarded my 2 Pomeranians at her house for a week while I traveled. My dogs seemed perfectly happy when I picked them up! Would absolutely recommend Kira as well as use again!”
“Thank you so much Mayra for taking amazing care of my baby boy on this long stay. Mayra is amazing and i can tell by the pictures and videos i was receiving daily that Milo was in loving care. Thank you so much to Mayra and her family!”
“Megan had my 3 pups for a week. It was their first time being away from us, but they came home happy. She sent daily photos and all went well. We would book again if we needed a sitter.”
“I’m so happy we found a new dogsitter through Rover. Deb is a perfect fit for our 4 year old Cavapoo. Deb has a very warm, friendly demeanor, and has vast experience with dogs, both as an owner and a service dog trainer. Her golden doodle was a nice companion for our dog over his stay. I highly recommend using Deb as a trusted dogsitter.”
“Blu came home either worn out from playing with the other dogs or depressed he had to leave the other dogs, but either way, Blu was in good hands and enjoyed himself so much that he didn't miss us! Tristan and his wife were very friendly and had a great home for Blu to feel comfortable while away from his own home.”
“Our pup Leia had a wonderful time spending the weekend with Deirdre. She didn’t want to leave….Literally walked to the house with Deirdre instead of coming with me when it was time to leave 😂 We will definitely be booking again when we need accommodations for our fur baby.”
“Celestia and Ryan were absolutely great. They accommodated my last-minute trip and boarded my dog Rocky for two nights and three days. They sent me pictures and videos, which ease my worries. Rocky had the best time. I will definitely be using them again. Thank you so much Celestia and Ryan.”
“Rosa & her kids show my dog nothing but love every trip. Shes accomadating even when its last minute and always sends me pics & videos of my dog. I only use her on Rover now. Thank Rosa!!”
“I had a great experience with Jo-Ellen! My dog was very well taken care of. She was very happy to be in a home with another dog her size. I got pictures and updates throughout the entire weekend. And Jo-Ellen is just such a kind person. Will absolutely use in the future!”
“So my dog stayed for the first time this past weekend. He was well taken care of and I got daily photos and updates on him. I already booked another boarding with her for both of my dogs. I love the pick up and drop off service. It’s so convenient when you’re traveling to not have to worry about dropping your pets off or picking them up after a vacation. This is a great addition to her services.”
“Rani had a good stay at Shana’s. Shana was welcoming and caring and even created a cozy space for Rani amongst her own pups. Shana was attentive to Rani’s needs and kept me updated with pictures. I would use Shana again. Thank you.”
“Amber is everything you could hope for in a pet sitter! It was clear that Amber and family treated Milo like he was one of their own during the five days he stayed with them. She understood that he needed a day to settle in, and was patient and attentive to his needs. We received daily photos and could see how happy Milo was. We are so grateful to have found Amber and look forward to booking her again soon (and Milo will be so happy too)!”
“Luna had a great time staying at Cera’s. Cera went above and beyond in making sure Luna felt at home, taking her on runs, lots of snuggles, and sharing an abundance of updates. Would definitely book again.”
“First time using Rover and with Andrew and Chelsea I hit the jackpot!! Beautiful home and land for my Lab/mix to run and play. From our meet and greet to picking up Macy at the end of her stay everything was perfect! Thank you Andrew & Chelsea. I would definitely board with them again.”

About: I never had a cat growing up. When my children were in kindergarten a newborn kitten that was rejected by its mother entered our lives. My daughter bottle fed Leo and was his main caregiver. To her dismay, Leo chose me. We spent 20 years together. I miss that guy, anyway, I have gotten to know my friends and families cats and I am the designated cat sitter when they are in need.

About: I have had cats all my life. I grew up with them and have four of my own now. They range in age from 7-11 years and are my world. My second oldest cat, Delilah was very ill a few years ago and with the help of our vet, we were able to nurse her back to health. The long road to recovery included giving her subcutaneous fluids and feeding her through her feeding tube for over a month. So happy to say she is here with me today loved and healthy as ever.
About: My parents owned pets all my life so I was raised around dogs and cats, I had my first cat at age 13 and had a few other pets in my time. The one who really has my heart is my dog named Gizzy who I got when he was only 2 months old, he's now 16 years old. My dad always owned bigger dogs, like German shepherds, while I was growing up and I've owned smaller dogs such as Gizzy who is a Shih Tzu and Paris who is my pug baby so I can provide adequate care to your pupper regardless of their size or age! I'm also experienced with cats and I generally just love all animals, I feel like animals are just like children only with fur I'm currently a stay at home mom of a 15 year old and a 19 year old, apart from my duties as a mom I also take care of my own 2 dogs. I will have lots of spare time to spend with your pets and pet-sitting won't be an issue since my fiance can take care of our puppers while I'm away looking after your pet(s)! I can make sure your dog gets the potty breaks they need, fill their water bowls, walk them if needed, play with them, give them oral medication if necessary, and make sure they're safe while I'm doing a drop in or pet sitting! I can care for your cat(s) and I'm happy to feed your pets if you need me to during a drop in (and of course pet sitting)
About: I've grown up around cats of all kinds: house cats, feral, barn cats, you name it. I've even raised two litters of bottle babies. My cats are named Manson and Salem. Manson has been with me for over 10 years and is the other half of my soul (sorry to my husband). Salem is a certified daddy's girl and is still a little feral. Weather your feline wants unlimited chin scratches or zero eye contact with a 10 foot social distance, im happy to be there for them!
About: Having had numerous feline companions, I have developed a deep understanding of their needs and body language, which makes me exceptionally equipped to take care of cats. My journey with cats began at a young age, and over the years, I have become deeply attuned to their distinct personalities and behaviors. I derive great pleasure from deciphering the unique language of cats and providing them with the care and affection they deserve. Cats are known for their independence, but they also require a sensitive and attentive caretaker who recognizes when they need affection, space, or medical care. My experience has taught me to identify subtle changes in a cat’s behavior, which can often indicate health issues or stress. This skill is essential in ensuring that a cat remains healthy and happy throughout its life. Furthermore, I have spent considerable time educating myself about feline nutrition and health. This includes learning about the best dietary practices, understanding the importance of regular vet visits, and staying informed about common feline ailments. This knowledge allows me to provide the best possible care for any cat under my supervision. Moreover, I am adept at handling various cat temperaments, from the most sociable to the more reserved or skittish cats. My patience and ability to adapt my approach based on a cat's personality have allowed me to form strong bonds with cats, making them feel safe and loved. In conclusion, my extensive experience, coupled with a genuine love and respect for cats, makes me ideally suited to take care of feline companions. I am committed to providing a nurturing, stimulating, and healthy environment for any cat that becomes a part of my life.

“Our two dogs seemed to be at ease with Megan during a four hour "day care" at her residence. They came home happy, tired and healthy. I think that's a good sign. I met her two dogs and found them to be gentle and well-behaved. Although our dogs were with her for only a four hour stay that day, she still somehow managed to get nice, little walk in for them! At this point, I feel comfortable with Megan and her ability to care for our doggies and would use her service again. She's very professional, cordial and accommodating. She provided quick responses every time I had questions. Thanks!”

I will certainly reach out to her again and I recommend her to anyone looking for a trusting and professional pet sitter. Thank you for everything, Rosa!!!”

About: I’m a proud dog mom to a Mini Goldendoodle who turns 2 on June 28. She’s the sweetest, friendliest little girl and truly a part of my family. Spending every day with her has taught me so much about the love, patience, and attention that dogs need to feel happy and secure. I’ve always had a soft spot for animals, and I genuinely enjoy being around them. Whether it’s going for walks, playing fetch, sticking to their routine, giving extra cuddles, or just keeping them company, I love making pets feel comfortable and cared for while their families are away. What sets me apart is that I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I know my dog is my baby, and I treat every pet with that same level of love, kindness, and care. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and right at home with me. I’ll also send plenty of updates and photos because I know how reassuring it is to see your furry family member happy and having fun Pet care fits easily into my routine because I already spend my days caring for my own dog. Adding another dog to the mix doesn't feel like work to me, it's something I genuinely enjoy. I'm used to daily walks, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and all the little things that come with being a dog parent. Your pet's safety and comfort will always be my priority. I understand that every pet is different, and I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. In my home, pets will have a clean, safe environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision. I make sure doors and gates are secure and never leave pets unattended in situations that could put them at risk.

While I couldn't meet her beforehand, we put in a plan for her to get my keys so she can meet Bandit and take him for walks. She was very professional and from what I can tell, Bandit enjoyed his time with her and the walks. Highly recommend Marian and will definitely be using her for future needs!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats and small dogs since as long as I can remember. Whether it was family or friends. I'm really good at taking care of cats and small dogs because I have a lot of patience and love for animals. I make sure they are fed on time, groomed regularly, and given plenty of attention and playtime. I also pay close attention to their health and well-being, noticing any changes in their behavior or appearance. My gentle and caring nature helps them feel safe and comfortable, making me a great caregiver for my new furry friends. I am at home full time so I have all the time to give your pets the attention and love they need anytime throughout the day! I have a fenced in yard. A 3 story house that has tons of room for your fur babies to run around. I have tons cats toys, scratching posts and boards, and towers for the kitties!
About: I grew up with cats, dogs, reptiles, and rodents. I lived on a farm for years with cows, chickens, turkeys, and quail! Big or small, scaley or fluffy, I love all animals and will give them the respect and care they need. 150lb newfy who wants head pats and to drool on me? Absolutely! 6lb 20 year old cat who wants to yell at me and avoid eye contact? Say less. I've dealt with epileptic dogs, bladder stones in cats, and even beakless chickens. I'm up for any challenge! As someone lucky enough to work from home, I can position my job around your pet schedule. Weather I bring my laptop and snuggle up with your pup for the afternoon, take lunch and take a walk with your pooch, or stop in in the evening after my shift to give your cat head kisses. I'm flexible and willing to work with you. Whatever your pets need, I'm your gal. I had 6 dogs growing up and like to think I know how to read them. Your pets safety and your trust in me are my top priority. As an overbearing cat mom, I know just how important your pets are to your family.

“Lorraine does an amazing job. She is so sweet and kind. I have taken my boy to other sitters where he seemed to be anxious right off the bat. With Lorraine he immediately was calmed by her presence. She is one of the best rover sitters in my opinion and I highly recommend. Thank you again Lorraine. :)”
“This was our first time using Marian as a Rover sitter. She allowed me into her home to view the areas my dogs would be kept. It was a beautiful space and I didn't hesitate to leave them in her good hands. Within an HOUR or two of drop-off - we had an unexpected situation when one of our dogs became very stressed and sick due to the new environment. Marian kept me informed right away, was incredibly patient and compassionate and worked with me to come up with the best solution for my dogs. She even transported them to our home and transitioned our booking to drop in visits - which I so appreciated. She was kind, flexible, understanding - even after my dog had multiple accidents in her home - which had never happened before. She reassured us that she was a professional and used to these situations. We were able to proceed with our booked getaway ONLY because of Marians professionalism and kindness and flexibility. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and professional sitter.”
“This is the second time we have boarded with Ms. Anna - I cannot say enough praise - she is amazing with our high energy Husky! She sent updates and photos and genuinely loves animals. She is our go-to caregiver :)”
“Kira was great to work with! I reached out to her last minute and she was extremely accommodating and easy going. I boarded my 2 Pomeranians at her house for a week while I traveled. My dogs seemed perfectly happy when I picked them up! Would absolutely recommend Kira as well as use again!”
“Megan had my 3 pups for a week. It was their first time being away from us, but they came home happy. She sent daily photos and all went well. We would book again if we needed a sitter.”
“Blu came home either worn out from playing with the other dogs or depressed he had to leave the other dogs, but either way, Blu was in good hands and enjoyed himself so much that he didn't miss us! Tristan and his wife were very friendly and had a great home for Blu to feel comfortable while away from his own home.”
“Our pup Leia had a wonderful time spending the weekend with Deirdre. She didn’t want to leave….Literally walked to the house with Deirdre instead of coming with me when it was time to leave 😂 We will definitely be booking again when we need accommodations for our fur baby.”
“Celestia and Ryan were absolutely great. They accommodated my last-minute trip and boarded my dog Rocky for two nights and three days. They sent me pictures and videos, which ease my worries. Rocky had the best time. I will definitely be using them again. Thank you so much Celestia and Ryan.”
“I had a great experience with Jo-Ellen! My dog was very well taken care of. She was very happy to be in a home with another dog her size. I got pictures and updates throughout the entire weekend. And Jo-Ellen is just such a kind person. Will absolutely use in the future!”
“So my dog stayed for the first time this past weekend. He was well taken care of and I got daily photos and updates on him. I already booked another boarding with her for both of my dogs. I love the pick up and drop off service. It’s so convenient when you’re traveling to not have to worry about dropping your pets off or picking them up after a vacation. This is a great addition to her services.”
“Amber is everything you could hope for in a pet sitter! It was clear that Amber and family treated Milo like he was one of their own during the five days he stayed with them. She understood that he needed a day to settle in, and was patient and attentive to his needs. We received daily photos and could see how happy Milo was. We are so grateful to have found Amber and look forward to booking her again soon (and Milo will be so happy too)!”
“First time using Rover and with Andrew and Chelsea I hit the jackpot!! Beautiful home and land for my Lab/mix to run and play. From our meet and greet to picking up Macy at the end of her stay everything was perfect! Thank you Andrew & Chelsea. I would definitely board with them again.”
“We were desperate last minute for someone to watch our dog on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We reached out to Lydianis and her husband Alex on Rover. They were very quick to respond and continued with good communication throughout the entire time they had my dog. They took the time, at a very busy time of year, to meet us on the Sunday before at a local park and introduced their beautiful Lab Chase to us. Seeing how well they handled Chase and how understanding they were of Clementine’s intimidation, really eased our minds of my small dog being around a bigger dog and it showed how compassionate these two fun dog loving people are towards their guest dogs and owners. Prior to Clem's stay, they asked all the right questions about how to care for her and what they could do to help with any anxiety, when to feed her how much, etc., We felt very comfortable with them and liked both of them very much! We will definitely be calling again to have them watch our little fur baby!”
“Cassandra did a great job. Our dog had a really good time with her and her family. She had excellent communication and sent pictures and videos daily. I recommend Cassandra highly.”
“Very happy with the care Seneca received from Karter. She must have had a great time playing with their Shepherd puppy. Seneca is much stronger now after her stay with them. We plan on using Karter M. again in the future. Thanks again Darice”
About: Not a well experienced sitter but my nieces’ dogs don’t want to go back home after being with me. Your pets are going to be in a safe environment. I’m going to be out of work for a couple of weeks so I’ll have time to walk your pet, and keep them busy, then available on weekends. I have enough space to care for your furry babies. And a big park next to me to take walks and play around safety. I always appreciate a good companionship while watching tv, rubbing bellies are free.
