“Mollie had a great time with Ashley and her family! From the many photos I was sent it looked like she was very well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Ashely and her family for your pet!”
“Amy was the most amazing sitter ever ♥️ this was our first time using Rover and she went above and beyond for our babies ! We felt at peace knowing they were well taken care of and loved at her home :) she gave us daily pictures and updates. She has also been so flexible with our schedule, especially since our flights were changed .”
“Angelo has become my first choice for a sitter for my boys. I don't worry about them at all when they stay with him. He is fantastic at staying in touch and I feel like he takes his responsibility seriously while enjoying the time he spends with his charges. Thank you, Angelo!!!”
“Wendy was amazing in the care of our 2 elderly boxers. They were loved and cared for, as if it were by us. She was great in giving updates on the dogs, and giving medication at specific times. Was able to enjoy my trip, knowing they were in great hands.”
“Sammy was a happy boy during his visit. When we picked him up he looked great. We appreciated the pictures Michelle sent. It was wonderful knowing Sammy was in a safe and caring home.”
“Dottie is very hesitant around new people so I was anxious. Angela was very patient with Dottie and before I knew it Dottie felt comfortable. Angela kept in touch with pictures and videos of Dottie. I will be using Angela again.”
“Ashley was so awesome! Our lab Tully had a total blast and was so spoiled with cuddles and playtime. She texted us everyday with pictures and updates on how she was doing. She had so much fun with Ashley and her family. Will definitely be using Ashley again!”
“This was my first time using Rover. I reached out and no one was available due to Spring Break. Mr. Ronald instantly responded and stated he was available. He constantly kept in contact with us by sending pictures, videos, and updates. He even gave tips on how to potty train our fur baby. I felt so at ease knowing our fur baby was well taken care of. I am definitely going to use him again. Thank you again Mr. Ronald. I would recommend him and we will be using him.”
“I recently had the pleasure of leaving my kitten in Ashley’s care for the weekend, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! She was incredibly accommodating from the start—allowing me to drop my kitten off the night before my trip due to an early morning flight. Ashley kept me updated throughout the weekend with regular pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My kitten was initially a bit of a challenge, hissing when we dropped her off, but Ashley was patient and kind, and by Saturday, they were cuddling and playing like old friends. She also noticed that my kitten had dirty ears and had been scratching at them. Not only did she let me know right away, but she also offered to clean them and apply a topical treatment. I truly appreciated her attentiveness and care. Ashley went above and beyond, and it’s clear she genuinely loves and understands animals. I’ll absolutely be booking with her again. She’s earned a repeat customer!”
“Mariah was the best and we would definitely recommend her. She took great care of our very big escape artist of a husky/shepard and updated us daily. Drop off and pick up was so easy and she even already had a kennel at her house for him to sleep in. When our flight was delayed she even offered to bring him home for us and even sent him home with a goodie bag which was so sweet. We really appreciated it and will definitely use Mariah for future trips. Thank you again Mariah!”
“Amanda has been our go to dog sitter for our goldendoodle Thor since he was a baby. He always has the best time and looks so happy every time we take him there. We never have to worry about him when we travel, because we know he’s in good hands!”
“Our sweet puppy had a blast with Lori. Her care and concern for my dog as if its hers makes her top of the line. Im grateful we have a safe place for our sweetie pup.”
“This is the second time our pet dog has stayed with Leon and family. He loves this family and is so calm and rested when we pick him up from Leon’s place. This is a home away from home for him, and it is such a comfort for us to know that he’s in good hands.”
“Angelita was AMAZING with my furbaby! She took time to allow him to get comfortable with her. Her yard can compete with the best dog parks in the city. My furbaby who rather be at the park then home was in absolute heaven!”
“Ariel took excellent care of my Bailey, so glad to have made the connection. I appreciated Ariel for sending pictures and updates without asking, definitely made me feel comfortable knowing he was in great hands and will book again!!”
“Brownie’s stay with Caitlyn was fabulous! It was our first time to leave her with anyone, and she can be an anxious dog. But when we visited before the stay, we could see that the home’s vibe is very relaxed, and they said she was snuggly with them, and good with the other dogs. We really appreciate such good care!”
“Elezha did an awesome job with my dog! I have never seen him connect with someone so fast. She kept me updated the whole time & gave him plenty of walks. Will definitely book again for future needs!”

“Paige is a very nice person and so is her husband. From what I have experienced, she truly does love taking care of animals. My little lady took to her right away. I initially had hired Paige to house/pet sit for me but unfortunately had to cancel and she was very understanding and accommodating, which I really appreciated. I was also impressed with how prepared she was to ask all the right questions to prepare for the job. I have used her since and was nice to feel comfortable leaving my girl in her care. Highly recommend!”
“Stacey came over within thirty minutes of our request when our flight was cancelled and we were in a bind. I cannot stress enough how incredible and helpful she is. I always know Oscar is in good hands!”
“Thanks for watching my cats on short notice. Dana was able to stop by for a meet and greet just a couple days after I reached out to her. Her visits were on time and she took good care of my pets.”
About: Cats are very special to me. I grew up with two, both of which senior cats now (16 & 11), who have taught me the ins and outs of respecting boundaries, showing affection, and mutual respect. My first priority as a caretaker is to ensure your cat is comfortable and feels safe while you are away. I have cared for many cats, from early kittens to senior citizens. I am comfortable giving oral medicines. I even may be able to teach them a trick or two! Every kitty is given the same love and care I would give my own. I am a part-time tutor with significant availability, giving you flexibility when needed. I am able to drop in or stay overnight as requested in advance. I am able to adjust to the needs of you and your cat(s). All items in home will be treated respectfully and kept maintained as they were upon arrival.
“Wendy has been sitting for us our cats for quite sometime now. The cats like her and she does a good job of giving one of our cats his daily medication. She also takes the time to play with them and send photos and a detailed report from each check in to show how everything is.”
About: Experienced with dogs who have medical issues, who are high energy, and senior dogs. Also have done long term care for owners who leave on vacation or work trips.

About: I grew up with cats my whole life. In recent years I’ve rehabilitated two cats & brought them from the brink of death to perfect health. I also have a good amount of experience with different cat-itudes as I used to volunteer with my sister at shelters.
About: I have been a cat owner and caregiver for over 25 years and have cared for six cats with a wide range of personalities, temperaments, and care needs. This experience has taught me how to recognize and adapt to each cat’s unique preferences, whether they are playful and social, shy and independent, or require extra patience and attention. Cats have always been an important part of my family’s life, and we truly can’t imagine our home without them. I understand how much pets mean to their owners, and I am committed to providing the same love, care, and attention to your cats that I give my own.
About: I nearly constantly had cats while growing up - our house never felt complete without a cat in it 😺 Until recently, I hadn't had a cat in many years for a variety of reasons and settled for feeding the outdoor cats wherever I lived and rescuing and re-homing any strays. However, I stumbled upon a sweet, stray, tortie kitten last Fall and won her trust. I was able to bring her home and she has wiggled and purred her way into the whole family's hearts 💖 I love cats with my entire heart and will do anything I possibly can to keep them happy, healthy and safe. A neighbor, whom I had never met before, flagged me down Spring of 2024 and asked if I could help her catch a Momma cat and two kittens in her bushes. I took on the job and spent the majority of the day out in the rain catching these babies. Caught the kittens that day and the Momma later on that night and reunited them all at Animal Control the next day. I confirmed beforehand that they had the space for the kitties and for them to please call if they weren't adopted after they were made available. This has been a bit long winded and all over the place, but the point is, I LOVE CATS and I would love to care for your cat or cats while you are away. They will be greatly loved 💖
“Meghan was great! She came in clutch last minute when my normal sitter was out of town and responded within minutes of my request. She followed all of my instructions perfectly, sent great updates with plenty of pictures and notes, and took wonderful care of my babies. I’ll definitely use her services again in the future if my normal sitter is unavailable ❤️”

About: I have had pets my whole life ranging from cats to birds to fish. I also love dogs and so does my 9 year old daughter and my husband. I have cared for family members, neighbors and friends animals (cats and dogs) for many years. My cat is 19 years old and I have also had to say goodbye to my baby, Daphnie who I had from the time she was a baby until she passed away, and my other baby Willow, who we rescued when we lived in Hawaii and was a part of our family for about 10 years. I am therefore familiar with senior care for animals. I’ve administered oral, topical and iv meds (yes I did that home with one of my cats near the end of her life). I love to walk and run and have always enjoyed taking dogs for a walk when I’ve cared for the pets of others. I have even cared for a few rowdy young dogs that were still in puppy training school. I have been pet sitting on River for about 3 years. I’ve done many drop in visits, boarding and dog walks for my clients. I am currently a home maker so I have a flexible schedule to care for your babies. Most weeks I am able to do mornings, mid day and evenings I have a fenced in yard. I have one cat, who has been around dogs, lived with a dog and is used to the occasional dog being boarded in our home. He is fine with dogs as long as the dogs are calm towards him. I would not be able to host in my home any very young dogs that may want to “play” with my cat as he is older and also has no interest in being friends with a dog. He is very non-aggressive and tends to mostly avoid them whenever I board.

“Neysha is very great. I love interacting with her. She took water for the dog with her so she could feed my dog water. That’s super thoughtful. She gave my dog water break when she walked him so he didn’t get thirsty to death after walking. Super sweet. Will come back to book her again.”
About: I grew up helping take care of the family pets; we had cats, dogs, fish, & rabbits! I’ve always loved taking care of pets and will never say no to an opportunity to meet new ones :) I have experience taking care of: cats, dogs, fish, turtles, rabbits, ferrets, guinea pigs, & hamsters. I have experience medicating, feeding, and basic grooming. I routinely check for potential hazards and remove them from the environment. I’m currently unemployed due to the turbulent job market, so I have all the time in the world to care for your pets. When I’m not home taking care of my own animals, I’m out looking for work or a new place to volunteer. I’m always making sure there’s no choking hazards on my pets toys & making sure their water & food are always topped off. They always get extra love & brushing at the end of the day. (And maybe a couple extra treats if they’ve been good)
About: ***I did just have a baby so I may not be taking certain bookings for reasons such as distance, time, and whether the animal is friendly with children. Thank you!!*** Hi there! I'm Paige, and my passion for animals has been with me for as long as I can remember. I've always been the one to befriend any creature, big or small – yes, even bugs! Over the years, I've been entrusted with the care of friends' beloved pets, and I've relished getting to know each one's unique personality. My experience is extensive, having worked in two reputable kennels and a lively doggie daycare. On top of that, I have regularly volunteered at a local farm, so I'm no stranger to getting my hands dirty in the name of furry friends. When you choose me, you're not just getting a pet sitter – you're getting someone who will go the extra mile to understand and meet your pet's needs. Your furry family member will feel right at home with me. Let's create a pawsitive experience for your pet together! I am currently staying at home raising my baby boy and trying to achieve my other main goal in life, caring for animals full time. I hope to one day open a facility of my own, most of my time is fully open for rover opportunities. I currently have three wonderful pets in my life: Sonny, my dashing 5-year-old cat, Night my handsome 1 yr old cat, and Lucky my energetic 1yr old pup (🌈 Abby, my lovely 13-year-old dog🌈). Caring for them is a central part of my daily routine. I'm always on the lookout for the well-being of my fur babies, just as I would be for yours. I find joy in interactive playtime with my kitty and enjoy taking my dog on exciting adventures, including trips to the dog park, long walks, and even hikes! My approach to pet care varies depending on the setting. When it comes to walking dogs, whether it's in my home or at a client's place, I prefer taking leisurely strolls around the block. My top priority is ensuring the comfort and happiness of my furry companions, both at home and with clients. I'm committed to going the extra mile to provide exceptional care for your beloved pets, just as I do for my own.

She was SO sweet and communicated SO much! I could tell my babies were loved on so much while I was gone! I would recommend her to anyone and she is the only person I will trust my animals with when i’m gone!?”

About: I have had animals my entire life from cats and dogs to horses and goats. I work in healthcare and can follow diet and medication instructions easily. I am currently available everyday. I can sit late afternoons or evenings as well. I also do overnights and weekends. If you need drop-ins or walks I can arrange that too. I have a 4 acre yard including a large fenced in area and also a smaller kennel area if needed for outside animals. Inside animals are welcome as I have an extra room with bedding, toys, leashes, and crates. If your animal does not use a crate for sleep that is fine also. They can sleep on their bed or pillow in the common area.
About: I’ve been caring for animals, both personally and professionally for more than 30 years. I’ve worked closely with trainers, vets and clients to learn and properly care for a variety of animals and their humans. I am partial to large breeds, but will cuddle and play with all paw sizes. I’m completely comfortable with giving meds, going to vet appointments, special needs, etc. I’m a reliable pet/ house sitter, as I treat both as they’re my own. After many years of opening restaurants, traveling as a consultant and managing an exclusive resort clubhouse, my primary job is now organizing homes/ offices and often people’s lives. From pets to meal preparation, holiday shopping and home decor, I can help make your life easier! Recommendations available upon request. My full time job is currently on hold, so I have open availability at the moment. Let me help make your life easier and your pets happy I prefer to care for pets in their own home, as it’s far less stressful for them. I treat all pets and homes as if they are my own
“Kimberly was so sweet and communicative about everything from finding my apartment to my dog’s preferences. I could tell my dog had a great walk with her when I got home. Would highly recommend!! :)”
About: I’ve always cared well for my pets - most of which were dogs, cats, fish, ferrets, rats, mice, and when I was young this included whatever wild animals I snuck into the house - snakes, frogs, lizards, worms, ants, spiders, baby birds and bunnies and so on. I still remember my pet's names: Maggie, Romeo, Alice, TJ, Corky, Tommy, Bruce, Annie, Guy, Quito, Slinky, Tilly, Tikka, Raja, and Jet... and some of the wild ones, including "George Cooney" the baby raccoon. I'm also familiar with many different types of products and methods associated with the care of both domestic and wild animals. I spent six weeks volunteering at Valley of the Sun Dog Rescue in AZ. The work included things like cleaning kennels, holding and comforting rescue dogs during medical procedures, walking them, training them, bathing, feeding, and breaking down kennels. During this time I worked to rehabilitate a 95 lb blue pitty named Vinnie. The goal was for him to be a bit more gentle and easy to walk. He spent the first 2 years of his life pulling skateboarders. To him, a leash meant “pull hard.” His training involved daily sessions of at least 45 minutes for about six weeks. By the end he would reliably respond to “heel, sit, paw, down, come, and stay.” He could also lay down and stay put calmly for up to an hour, even off leash if need be. This is what I do for work, so I will try my best to be available whenever you need me to be. Wherever schedule conflicts arise, I try hard to be easy to work with. My pups don't use a crate but in the past I've had pups that preferred it. I let them choose as they grew up. For your pups, I will do as you ask, just as I have for every pet I've ever cared for that did not belong to me... Give me a list, and I will carefully follow your instructions while being a good caretaker, instructor, exerciser, and friend for them. My routines allow me to be flexible with my schedule, which makes it possible to provide for your pet’s needs at the time that’s most convenient for you and for them. I understand that different people and pets have different needs and will care for them the way in which I am instructed. I love the animals in my care and want to make sure they and you are comfortable with the way I’m doing things.
About: I've had dogs all my life and have taken care of quite a few different kinds. I've taken care of dogs of every size and even taken care of a few cats. I love to walk dogs and spend time playing with them! I'm currently working on a certification, so my schedule can be pretty flexible. I can pretty much work any day of the week and weekends! I have two lively dogs of my own so I know a thing or two about taking care of dogs. I've spent my time with cats too so I know how to handle a litter box. I can follow your instructions for how you want me to specifically take of your dog or cat. I can send updates of your furry friend so you can check up on them!
About: I’ve taken care of just about every size dog since I can remember. I’ve dog sitted 3 dogs for a friend before and loved and took care of them as my own. I’m very reliable and trustworthy I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to give , to play and give attention to your beautiful pets. Very excited to meet all of y’all’s fur babies On walks I’ll keep them on a leash and if we decide to go and play at a park I’ll ALWAYS pay very close attention, your fur baby will not leave my sight.
About: I have had pets and been around animals my whole life. Many friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to help care for their pets. I love my dogs and cats. I am currently working part time. Walking and drop in visits fit my schedule perfectly. My experience is with small to big dogs plus cats. I’m knowledgeable in helping and caring for people’s pets while they are not home. I fully understand the large responsibility and trust of caring for people’s pets and homes, I do not take it lightly. Golden rule… treat others as I would my own!

“Ashley was so awesome! Our lab Tully had a total blast and was so spoiled with cuddles and playtime. She texted us everyday with pictures and updates on how she was doing. She had so much fun with Ashley and her family. Will definitely be using Ashley again!”
“This was my first time using Rover. I reached out and no one was available due to Spring Break. Mr. Ronald instantly responded and stated he was available. He constantly kept in contact with us by sending pictures, videos, and updates. He even gave tips on how to potty train our fur baby. I felt so at ease knowing our fur baby was well taken care of. I am definitely going to use him again. Thank you again Mr. Ronald. I would recommend him and we will be using him.”
“I recently had the pleasure of leaving my kitten in Ashley’s care for the weekend, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! She was incredibly accommodating from the start—allowing me to drop my kitten off the night before my trip due to an early morning flight. Ashley kept me updated throughout the weekend with regular pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My kitten was initially a bit of a challenge, hissing when we dropped her off, but Ashley was patient and kind, and by Saturday, they were cuddling and playing like old friends. She also noticed that my kitten had dirty ears and had been scratching at them. Not only did she let me know right away, but she also offered to clean them and apply a topical treatment. I truly appreciated her attentiveness and care. Ashley went above and beyond, and it’s clear she genuinely loves and understands animals. I’ll absolutely be booking with her again. She’s earned a repeat customer!”
“Mariah was the best and we would definitely recommend her. She took great care of our very big escape artist of a husky/shepard and updated us daily. Drop off and pick up was so easy and she even already had a kennel at her house for him to sleep in. When our flight was delayed she even offered to bring him home for us and even sent him home with a goodie bag which was so sweet. We really appreciated it and will definitely use Mariah for future trips. Thank you again Mariah!”
“Amanda has been our go to dog sitter for our goldendoodle Thor since he was a baby. He always has the best time and looks so happy every time we take him there. We never have to worry about him when we travel, because we know he’s in good hands!”
“This is the second time our pet dog has stayed with Leon and family. He loves this family and is so calm and rested when we pick him up from Leon’s place. This is a home away from home for him, and it is such a comfort for us to know that he’s in good hands.”
“Ariel took excellent care of my Bailey, so glad to have made the connection. I appreciated Ariel for sending pictures and updates without asking, definitely made me feel comfortable knowing he was in great hands and will book again!!”
“Very responsive. I traveled to Houston and needed a last minute sitter and she responded immediately. She kept me updated on my fur baby the entire time. Nice big yard, which my little one enjoyed . I will for sure be booking with her again. Oh, and she gave my baby a bath and trimmed her nails. Top tier 😊”
“I would give Heather 10 stars if it were possible! We’ve boarded our dog on several occasions and it’s always been a tough experience because she doesn’t eat very well and has seemed depressed while we’re gone. Our experience with Heather was the complete opposite; our dog was content and happy the entire time, something we didn’t think was possible while boarding 😅. Heather was very communicative and sent photos and videos of our dog every day while we were away. Her facility is also very clean and well kept, and feels warm and inviting as opposed to the large dog crates we’re accustomed to with other boarders. Heather obviously loves dogs and we were so grateful that she took such good care of our dog while we were gone for 10 days. I can’t recommend her and her services highly enough, this was hand down the BEST boarding experience we and our dog have ever had.”
“I keep forgetting to leave a review, but Susan and her family have really set a new bar for me on what to expect for a Rover stay. She takes care of my doggo like her own, writes down and records all her preferences and needs, and is very flexible. Won't leave my dog with anyone else if I can help it!”
“Penny was Well Cared for, Happy and Content while staying with Brandon and his family. Stayed in communication at all times. She also had a buddy to play with that was her size. A perfect fit! Thank you for taking such good care of our baby..... T”
“I was super nervous about finding a new sitter after our old sitter of 5 years moved away, but Ariel made the whole experience so easy. She was so sweet with my pups, communicated really well, and sent lots of pictures and updates throughout their stay. Every photo had them smiling and looking so happy. She completely eased my nerves for our first stay, and I already booked their next trip with her. Honestly, I don’t think they even wanted to leave her house when I picked them up 😂 Highly recommend!”
“At the last minute Ali sustained an injury. I was afraid that Irma may not be equipped to or may not want to deal with it on such short notice but I was wrong. Irma assured me that it wasn’t a problem and she was true to her word, everything was perfect! She took care of my Ali like she would her own puppy. She sent me pictures all weekend as well as a report on how he was feeling a couple times a day. I truly appreciate the care she provided and will definitely use her again! Irma is the best! Additionally, her puppy and mine are now #Besties❤️”
“We love ❤️ Keliann. My golden retriever loves staying over with her. Max has so much with the rest of the crowd. Will continue to bring him here for years to come.”
“Karen is amazing. She is a dog whisperer. My dogs are recent fosters and skittish she kindly took them last minute and assured me and sent pics letting me know they were all having a great time running around in the yard. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her.”
