“Autumn is possibly the best dog sitter we've ever had! We were nervous about finding a sitter for our new puppy, but Autumn answered all of our questions and made sure we were 100% comfortable. Autumn and her family treated our puppy like she was part of their family. Our dog has some separation anxiety, but at Autumns house she wasn't anxious at all! We got frequent photo and video updates. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a fun, loving, and safe environment for their pet.”

“The first time I met Melissa, I knew our fox terrier, Hershey ♥️ would be in good hands. Melissa is kind, caring, responsible and sends daily pictures with updates. She has a beautiful fenced in yard. I highly recommend Melissa♥️”

“Leayn is incredible! She took in my little pack of weirdos when another sitter backed out on me. We’ve got two girls, a lab and an Aussie. Our Aussie is high anxiety so I worried leaving her - I don’t worry anymore! She LOVES Leayn and her family! The girls sleep and whine for days after they get home wanting to go back and play. She treats them the way I’d treat them and sends tons of pictures which keeps me calm while I’m away. They have so much fun there! Highly, highly recommend!”

“Well all I can say is this...... Ashley is no longer our dog sitter..She is FAMILY. She took in my Three dogs ( two are pit bulls) and kept them for a week while we went on vacation. Her home was well equipped for my big dogs and her family loved our dogs as if they were their own. And my wife got to FaceTime our babies while we were gone. Great Experience!!!!!! Will always use Ashley when we go out of town for our dogs.”

“Gerald was excellent with my 6 month old yellow lab. He regularly sent me pictures of my dog playing with his puppy. Gerald was very responsive for our pre-meeting as well as drop off and pick up. I felt very comfortable leaving my puppy with him.”

“Thank you Destiny for always taking such good care of Beaumont. Destiny, Gili and Beaumont always have a 5 star time together. I feel so reassured knowing I can trust to leave Beau Beau with them while I’m gone on work trips/travelling. Highly recommend Destiny!!”

About: I have over 25 years experience taking care of all breeds of dogs, cats, lizards, fish and just about anything else you can think of. Whether you have a senior or special needs fur baby, one with a lot of extra energy or if you'd just like your fur-kid to have some extra attention while you're at work or away, I'm open to whatever their needs are and taking care of them. I am self employed so I make my own schedule. Therefore I'm available to work around daily walks, play times, feedings or whatever is needed. I am open to doing whatever you recommend when staying in your home. I find it's easier on them when very little changes while you're gone, so I like to keep their routine as close to normal as possible.
“Kaelyn was amazing! She gave Benne a safe place to stay while we went away for the holidays. She and her family loved him like he was theirs, even their dog Leo loved Benne. She sent regular pictures and videos so we wouldn't miss him too much. We will definitely use her again!”

Stephanie was excellent with communication as well. We highly recommend Stephanie and feel confident we will use her again in the future.”

“Patty was all the things we’d look for in a sitter for our boys! She was warm and personable, provided detailed care, and was on time for every visit.

I felt so at ease reading her visit cards, and seeing the care our cats were receiving in the photos she sent while we were away. I can’t recommend her enough- thanks Patty!”

“I traveled down from Maryland last minute for an unfortunate loss in my family. Everything happened so quickly that I didn't gave time to make arrangements for Bear, my 6 month old Cavapoo who had literally just gotten neutered a few days prior. After my 9 hour drive I prayed and hopped on Rover. God led me to Ashley and I have no regrets. Her home was beautiful and fulled with pictures of her sweet young family. She was so kind and Bear settled in immediately. I will definitely use her services again!!!!”

About: I can't remember a time in my life when there wasn't a dog in the house -- I've been an avid animal lover my entire life. I've worked at a boarding facility for about two years, where I became very comfortable caring for and loving up on our client's fur babies. I also became very comfortable administering medications, following specific feeding instructions, cleaning wastes, reading body language and behaviors, as well as knowing how to deter confrontation between pets if there are multiple in a home. I’ve worked at a Doggy Play Center where it has helped me gain a lot of behavioral knowledge when it comes to reading and understanding dog's body language as well as conditioned me to always be on the move and actively engaging with the pups. I've also spent time working for a Pet Care company, so I have experience in and am extremely comfortable doing dog walks for dogs of all sizes and overnight stays with pets of all kinds -- dogs, cats, birds, fish, etc. I believe the knowledge I've gained from hands-on experiences in past jobs, as well as the passion I've always had for animals, will leave your mind at ease that your fur babies will be very loved and well taken care of! Thank you for your time, I hope to hear from you soon! I'm currently a stay at home mom, so I’m basically available full time! I have plenty of time and love to give to your fur baby / babies, and I would love the extra company throughout the day as well. I’ve just moved into a house with a backyard that has plenty of room to run around and play in! I'm a fairly active person, so I'd be more than happy to take your pup on long walks every morning. I’d even be happy to run them if they’re extra high energy! Pets have full range throughout the home. I have a 2 year old Golden Retriever as well. She is unbelievably playful, but also knows how to relax around other dogs. We haven't come across one person or animal that we didn't want to be friends with. She is the definition of “knows no stranger”.

Autumn and her family treated our puppy like she was part of their family. Our dog has some separation anxiety, but at Autumns house she wasn't anxious at all!

“Leayn is incredible! She took in my little pack of weirdos when another sitter backed out on me. We’ve got two girls, a lab and an Aussie. Our Aussie is high anxiety so I worried leaving her - I don’t worry anymore! She LOVES Leayn and her family! The girls sleep and whine for days after they get home wanting to go back and play. She treats them the way I’d treat them and sends tons of pictures which keeps me calm while I’m away. They have so much fun there! Highly, highly recommend!”

“Well all I can say is this...... Ashley is no longer our dog sitter..She is FAMILY. She took in my Three dogs ( two are pit bulls) and kept them for a week while we went on vacation. Her home was well equipped for my big dogs and her family loved our dogs as if they were their own. And my wife got to FaceTime our babies while we were gone. Great Experience!!!!!! Will always use Ashley when we go out of town for our dogs.”

About: I’ve taken in two dogs from the shelter and trained both of them myself. I focus on giving each dog personalized care based on their personality and needs. I’m good with puppies and older dogs, since I have both. If a dog likes a slower pace, I’ll pay extra attention to that and slow down for them. I am currently home every day throughout the week, so I am able to fit your pets into whatever schedule you may need. I can come by and let dogs out multiple times a day or just stop by for a walk. I’m also able to watch your pup for days at a time if needed. I have a fenced-in yard and two dogs that get along very well with dogs of any size. They are both male, under 55 pounds, and neutered. I’m also able to crate your dog if needed, and I have a decently large crate available.
“I left my 2 year old lab Belle with Julie and Chris so we could go on our family vacation for one week. At the meet and greet Julie asked all the necessary questions on how to take care of Belle. Belle and Parma were instant friends at the meet and greet! I feel lucky to have found such nice people to take care of Belle in our neighborhood. I received daily updates on Belle pictures and videos. I highly recommend Julie and Chris they are true dog people!!!”

“I am a first time Rover user and could not be more pleased with the outcome! Alexandra made us feel extremely comfortable about leaving our lovely Sugar in her care. She treated her like she was part of her family from the first moment we met. She sent updates with photos and ensured Sugar was enjoying her time! It really put us at ease and we didn't have one worry while we were away. We definitely will use her again the next time we are away! Thank you!”

“Gabriella was terrific- she was very flexible with my plans and timing and kept in good touch while I was away. She sent lots of pictures. Our dog came home happy and pleasantly tired from running in her backyard!”
