“Lindsey and her family took excellent care of our dog, Willow for a 1 week stay. We received daily photos and comments of how her trip was going, which made us feel in the loop while we missed our girl. Would recommend to others who need a safe, loving home for their dog.”

“I’ve used rover a lot over the years and this was the best experience I’ve had here with Mary. From the first meeting I felt comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands. Anyone who knows dogs knows a tired dog is a good dog and as soon as Mary told me that her first order of business each day was to take her on a long walk I knew my dog would have a good stay. She sent pics and kept her engaged. Next time I need to board my dog I’ll be boarding with Mary 100%”

“Our dog loves going to Emily & Patrick's! He started wagging his tail the moment we got there this last time. It makes vacation so relaxing to know he is so happy and well cared for at their place.”

“Krista was easy to work with and gave the dogs attention and outdoor time. She was flexible when our flight was delayed. She communicated well and sent daily updates which was appreciated!”

“Our schedule was erratic and included my mistake in scheduling. Sima and her family were gracious hosts and worked with our schedule. I received updates on how our doggo was doing everyday. It has been a pleasure working with them, I would definitely consider them next time we are in town.”

“Our Bernedoodle, Rosie, had an absolutely wonderful stay with Maria! She has the ideal home and yard that kept our puppy very happy and content. We received updates and many photos every day that really made us feel that Rosie was getting excellent care and gave us great peace of mind. When we brought Rosie home, she was as happy and calm as when we dropped her off. We will 100% use Maria from now on!!!”

“Amy was so flexible to help us out when we had an unexpected death in the family. She took fantastic care of our pups while we were out of town. Whole-heartedly recommend Amy!!”
“Megan and her family are delightful. I felt safe leaving nugget with them because since moment one she was charming, transparent and sweet. My best recommendation for the platform is to honestly confess that I will rebook if I ever need a sitter again. Nugget was so visibly happy”

“Our Harley, a very busy golden doodle, who is very anxious, had a wonderful staycation filled with walks , cuddles and pupcups! If only we had people like you closer to our home! We are from Canada and are 23 hours from home and needed a place for our doodle while at our sons wedding, she had a fabulous time!”

“Excellent pet watcher!! I highly recommend. They were very responsive, and flexible. My cat T-square had a blast at there place. He was loved, groomed, and cared for, as if he was with me! ❤️”

“Chang sent us lots of pictures of our dog looking Happ and having a good time at her house. She was really kind and easy to work with. We will be using her again.”

“Gina took good care of our 1yr old puppy - took her on lots of walks, fun outings to breweries, and play times for our energetic girl. Gina was very easy to work with for us as well. She was flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, and went out of her way to coordinate a pick up time when we left some of Lilah's stuff behind.”

“Eronda is AMAZING! We brought our first ever puppy to her and she was extremely helpful and kind. She really attended to Millie’s needs such as teaching her things since she is just a baby and applying her medicine. Eronda also gives the best updates with photos. We trust her very much and will continue to book.”

“Amazing with my little void! Everyday pics and video and my little baby looked so happy to be there! Went above and beyond and made little toys for her!”

“Rae did a great job with our dog Rosie. She was very conscientious - took extra care to text me with any concerns, took Rosie for walks, and sent nice pictures. The large, fenced-in yard was great for our 90 lb. English lab - lots of room to enjoy. Thanks Rae - we will definitely use your dog-sitting services again!”

About: I am an animal lover and I have always had pets. The past few years I have been saving lives and fostering with One By One Reacue! I am currently on a foster break since I have 4 dogs of my own but help run the rescue in other ways. I am lucky enough to work from home and be with my pets all day. They stay in the general area I am when I work. Since I have 4 dogs of my own, I would like to provide boarding at my house. I am in a town house and I have movable metal fencing for my dogs. I never leave them outside alone. When I do have to run to the store or have plans for the day (usually no more than 8 hours) I have a furbo that I check in on them throughout the day. I also gate off my stairs so no one can use them (or fall down, I had a blind dog and watch one) when I am not there.
“Damara was wonderful! She was very caring and thoughtful with Theo. From the pictures and communication I could tell that Theo enjoyed his time with Demara and her daughter. Would definitely rebook in the future!”

“Nicole was an amazing sitter! She had my cat for a full week and updated me tons of pictures and videos every day. She was so responsive to all my texts and was so kind/understanding throughout this entire process. It was my first time boarding my cat with someone and it has been an extremely positive experience! She also helped my cat meet her cats for the first time and was very communicative at each step. I felt confident that Muji was in good hands and feeling happy! Thank you Nicole!!”

“Cam took such excellent care of my kitties! Great, thorough, timely, and hilarious updates. My cats were so chill when I got home, I seriously think they were like, wait a minute, where’s Cam, what are you doing here?? Gilly has a new best friend, and even Petunia, my cat with a shall we say ‘difficult’ personality, was warming up. I’d hire Cam again in a heartbeat!”

“Ursula made sure to take care of my cats like they were her own animals! I came home from my trip and my animals were well loved and not anxious. I would use Ursula again without a doubt.”


“Tiffany did an amazing job reliably checking, playing with, and taking care of my cat Pippy while I was away on vacation. I would highly recommend her!”


“Courtney took such great care and played with our kitty Semita, highly recommend! Booked last minute trip and she was great at communicating and taking pictures!”


“Heather is an A+ sitter! Our home and cats were in great hands while we were on an 8 day international trip. Heather checked in every day to let me know how the boys were doing, and left everything exactly the way we left it. She also helped with making sure the trash got put out and other household things. Our cats were happy and healthy, and our home was safe and clean while we were gone. I’m so grateful for Heather and would 100% ask her to stay again!”


“Becca was always communicative and kind as she helped with me, just moving to town knowing no one, and leaving my one year old bengal. They played and had lots of fun and already plan on booking her again (and sent her to some friends). On time, lots of pictures and very well loved report from the cat!”


“Kelsey was amazing. She helped us on super short notice and was able to get my kitten who is afraid of all strangers to come out and play!! It really made me so happy and I hope to work with her again sometime!”

“Rochelle took excellent care of our 2 cats when we were out of town. She was easy to communicate with and kept us updated with messages and photos during her drop-in visits with our cats.”


“Deneane was absolutely amazing!! She loved on our dogs so well and made them feel like they had a new friend to hangout with. She sent us the cutest pics of our dogs and took care of them as if they were her own. We will most certainly be using her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone!”

“Danielle was great! Took care of our cat, Bryce - fed twice a day and administered his insulin shot. Very communicative and friendly. She even brought in a package I had delivered while I was out. Will definitely rebook!”

“Penny looks forward to Marias visits, it would be an impossible travel without Marias support. Maria is kind, patient, flexible and super communicative. It was a relief to have Maria watch Penny during our long trip.”


“Rachel was a great help when I had to spontaneously leave town for a family thing. She was quick to respond and understanding of the fact that we couldn't meet in person! She took good care of my kitties while I was away. I definitely recommend you work with her if you ever need pet-caring help!”

About: I’ve been working with a variety of dogs of all different breeds for roughly 6 years via dog walking, dog sitting, etc! I love dogs of all kinds! I’m a doctoral student of occupational therapy, so most of my time is spent working via fieldwork and doing homework. I am free on Tuesdays & Thursdays for drop ins/walks, and on weekends for housesitting. I’m happy to help with any household needs specified during housesitting! Please leave me comprehensive instructions for caring for your pet(s), including meal details/times, walking schedule, etc.
“Roman always provides detailed updates and lots of photos that help put me at ease when I’m away from my pet. He also asks thoughtful questions if he has any concerns - which is even more appreciated because my cat has several daily medications. Highly recommend!”


“Michelle was amazing. Chickens were happy. The cats were calm and looked healthy, rather than stressed out—which is how they usually act when I get home. Litter cleaned, no messes, and when I ran out of cat food, she let me know and we arranged a delivery. I think my misfits miss her. Highly recommend—best sitter yet.”

“Bonnie was amazing with my two dogs. It was so nice knowing that they were in such great hands and the updates and pictures really helped put me at ease. From the looks of it both of my dogs loved her. Even my older female warmed up to her and she rarely warms up to anyone aside from myself! This is my first time using Bonnie and I will definitely continue using her in the future!”

“Liz was so great with daisy! She watched her all day for me and even took some pictures! She’s so nice and very accommodating. I’ve already booked to board my dog with her in a few weeks. Definitely recommend!!”

“Adrienne is awesome and straight up THE BEST! She is super dedicated, very professional, and easy/very reliable regarding communication. I can’t recommend her highly enough, and I have zero hesitation leaving my Lily with her.”

“Millie stayed with Greg a few time days now. Some were full days some were half days! He was great about sending pics and taking care of Millie. They did 2 walks every time. He was very accommodating with my hours of need. I would highly recommend him.”


“Amy does a fantastic job! She is so professional, and my puppy absolutely LOVES to go. He gets so exciting when he gets in the car now, thinking he's going to get to go to Amy's house. I highly recommend her, especially for weekly doggy daycare during the day.”

“Christy has watched Peach throughout her entire life; sometimes it was a weekly basis, a few times she watched her at a last minute Emergency notice, and had even boarded her over a long weekend. Peach isn't a big fan of humans but loves going to Christy's, getting to visit with her friends. Peach loves her dog Louie and playing with the other pups that she takes care of. I enjoy the photo updates, I am happy that Peach feels safe and I feel comforted while she is in Christy's care, and that Christy allows the dogs on the furniture-Peach even got to sleep in bed when she stayed. I hope I never have to go through the process of figuring out another sitter because Christy is the one for us; Highly Recommend for any of you and your pets needs! Thank You Christy for Everything over the last 3 years!!!”

About: I have our wheaten terrier George for 1.5 years and I have experience sitting dogs for our neighborhood. I have a nice front yard and doggy door for all day free roaming. My neighborhood is very low traffic perfect for dog walking. I work from home full-time for my own company. My schedule is quite flexible but typically I do 8 am morning walk and an afternoon walk around 5 pm for my dog. Happy to do additional walk if requested. I will take care of your dog just like we treat our dog George. He is super friendly and kind to all human and dog. I will make sure they can get along and I will send picture throughout the day.
“I was nervous leaving my puppy with a care giver that I didn’t know, but the day was so positive! I received updates and photos throughout the day and Honey came home happy and tired from her exciting day. I would highly recommend!”

“Tia was great! She accepted my request on short notice and made me feel at ease about leaving my boy Pete with her. We drove into town and needed a sitter for a few hours. She was the perfect choice for Pete the Pug. He was safe and secure in her fenced in yard. She also made him feel right at home letting him on her couch as part of the family. He made a new friend, Tang her adorable dog. She sent pictures and even a video to help ease my mind about dropping him off with a stranger away from home. I highly recommend her. And if we go back to Pittsburgh I will definitely book with her again.”

“Kayla was amazing. She was able to accommodate us in such short notice after our dog sitter cancelled. She took great care of Kobe, sending updates and pictures. Kobe really enjoyed his time with Kayla.”

“Angela was communicative and wonderful! She even sent a picture to check in and let us know our dog was doing alright and calming down (he's a rescue so the separation anxiety is real).”

About: I have been dog sitting for friends for 15years. I have experience with all types of dogs from French Bulldogs to German Shepherds to King Charles Cavaliers. I treat each dog like they were my own and give them the best care possible while their owners are away. I also have experience dealing with smaller dogs that are aggressive with other dogs I work full time from home so I am able to give the dog any attention it needs and will be able to take them outside frequently. I will treat your pet like it is my own whlie they are with me. I have no issues with the dog sitting on furniture or sleeping on the bed. I will request that you provide a crate for when I have to leave the home
“Valerie was terrific! She treated our little Hattie like her own and provided routine updates with pictures. We've already scheduled our next Doggy Day Care!”


“Melanie was amazing! She immediately helped Mikey feel comfortable at home, and took him out on walks. Mikey was able to relax and spend plenty of time with Melanie, and she even found a rash on him and let us know about it. Absolutely would recommend!”


“Laura provided the best doggy day care for our dog, Layla! They took such great care of our quirky girl and each day she was more excited than the last when I dropped her off. I know Layla can’t wait to go back again.”

“Such a lovely woman. Sami and Bleu must have had a wonderful time. They had lots of playmates….wore them out. They have been sleeping since we left. I will definitely get in touch again. Thank you so much Regina.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I recently graduated from college and moved to the city, and I’m excited to continue spending time with animals through dog walking and pet sitting. Over the years, I’ve pet sat and walked dogs for neighbors, friends, and family members, giving me experience with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. My family has Dane Mastiffs, so I’m very comfortable handling large breeds, but I also adore small dogs like my aunt’s two mini dachshunds. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I understand how important routines, exercise, patience, and affection are for dogs, and I’ll always treat your pet like part of the family. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pup is in good hands! I work full-time, but my schedule is similar to shift work. I have open mornings and the occasional free weekend! Pet care is something I enjoy, gets me outside, and is a little bit of exercise all at once. I’m organized, dependable, and committed to making sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening feedings, I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide updates (and lots of pictures!) so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. My goal is for the pets to feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible. That means sticking to their routine, staying in familiar environments, and being aware of the surrounding stressors. I am great at following clear instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, litter box care, and any special routines their pets are used to. I also keep homes clean and tidy, provide regular updates and photos, and make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I can provide services at the client's home; I don't have boarding facilities.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10, volunteered walking regular, power and bashful dogs for 2 years at the humane animal rescue of Pittsburgh, currently have 2 cats. I'm currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding, drop-in visits, and walking the dogs on weekdays and weekends. I will follow your instructions to take the best care of your loved pups, and cats! I can work with you and your loved pups to make the experience as joyful as possible.
“So happy to have connected with Greg. He’s obviously very experienced and adjusted his plans to meet Kona’s needs. We are grateful to have the extra help when we need it.”

“Heather does an amazing job with my 2 pups!! She makes sure they have on their coats or harnesses depending on the cold temps. My pups enjoy the long walks with her and being able to sniff at their own pace!! The pups get so excited to see her! Definitely would recommend Heather to take care of your pets!!”

“Jessi is amazing! She is so reliable and responsible and clearly LOVES dogs. I get a complete report and lots of pictures after she walks Yogi. I highly recommend her!”

“Maria was fabulous. She was consistent and kind and Kev fell in love with her. She was always quick to respond to messages and gave daily feedback on his walks. We will definitely reach out to her again!”


About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I was a teenager in high school. My friends, family, and neighbors would rely on and trust me to check-in, walk, feed, and care for their pets while they were out of town and would return home knowing their pets were well cared for while they were away! I am a recent Physician Assistant graduate looking for part-time work while studying for my boards! Rover allows me to create the perfect work schedule for myself, while also allowing sufficient time during my day to focus on my studies. I love caring for pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can stay in a familiar and stress-free environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual routine and needs, and I’m happy to provide everything from feeding and walks to playtime and keeping their space clean and comfortable. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pet is safe and well cared for while you’re away, and I treat every pet as if they were my own.

My availability during the school year is limited to nights, weekend, and holiday breaks. I am currently working as a preschool teacher. This gives me the whole summer off which allows me to be very flexible to care for your pets when you can't. I am committed to keeping your pet on the schedule you and your family want for them. All while keeping them safe and loving them.

She has a lovely fenced in backyard for her dog and ours to run around in, which was a big plus for us. It feels good to have a future pup sitter we trust!”

When I picked him up, he was clearly comfortable with Annette. Thank you.”
