“Love, love, love Britt and her son. They took excellent care of our Princess. When we picked her up, she was a little confused. I think she thought Britt and her son were her new family 😂. This says a lot….she received so much love and care. Thank you so much for making Princess a part of your family. 💕💕”

“Reagan and her family did an excellent job taking care of our 2 dogs while we went on a post Christmas family vacation. Their attention to detail and care they took was second to none.

“Weiyue and her partner were absolutely amazing cat sitters! Tom was clearly well-loved and cared for while we were away on our trip. It was so reassuring knowing he was in such capable hands. They sent us the photos and updates about Tom every visit. We would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a reliable and loving cat sitter.”

“Excellent cat sitter, couldn't have asked for a better sitter. They were so patient when emergencies arise and very kind to my cat. I'm honestly a little worried my cat forgot who I am because my sitter was so nice to him. They sent timely communications along with photos and fulfilled every request I had.”


“Bobbi is very friendly and understanding of the quirks of my two cats. She’s also happy to learn and asks great questions. I’m glad to have found her and know my cats are in great hands!”

“Erin was wonderful! She was very open and communicative coming up to the visit, taking the time to ask thoughtful questions and asking additional details about Howard. She arrived on time, provided thorough check-ins on the app, and sent me pictures as well letting me know he was happy and healthy.”


About: I absolutely love cats. Before my neighbor moved away, I would drop by her house after school to check on her cat while she was at work. As I got older, my mom would recommend me to her clients from her cleaning service when asked if she knew any pet-sitters who could watch their cats for a couple of hours, weekends, or on holidays.
“This was my first time using Rover and leaving our two kiddos at home. Both our dog and cat are high stress in the car so I wanted to find a way to allow them to stay home when we are away. I think Mckalynn is the best person to use this app. She sent us a detailed card each time she saw our kiddos. She also included pictures of each fur baby. We will be using Rover and Mckalynn again the next time we are out of town! This was just a simple and easy experience. She gave us so much piece in mind and kept things tidy for us. If you are really nervous about using a sitter and Rover don't be… Mckalynn will love your kiddos like her own. She is absolutely heaven sent!!!!”


“Nicole is great! She’s so thoughtful and I can tell she really cares about the fur babies she takes care of. She is always so kind and professional. I know my cat is in good hands when I’m away. My Dani just enjoys her play time and cuddles with Nicole. Thank you!!”


“Jenna was Amazing! She took such great care of my two fur babies and kept me up to date with everything the whole time I was gone. She sent multiple pictures everyday and it made me feel so much better about being away. I highly recommend Jenna!”


“Sabra provides excellent service and is extremely thoughtful and conscientious. She took excellent care of my pet and I highly recommend her. I have used her numerous times and will continue to do so in the future.”

“Tracy was great! I have a very old cat that can’t travel with us any longer that needs meds and thyroid shots. Tracy was on time and very attentive to our cat. It was a great feeling to know our cat was being taken care of when we were out of town. We will definitely be booking Tracy again! Thanks for being so wonderful with our baby!”
About: Pets have been a cherished part of my life for as long as I can remember. From a young age, I've always considered them true family members. The love they give to you, and being such loyal companions who deserve the same care, respect, and devotion we give to our own children. Throughout the years, I've taken full responsibility for their well-being, from feeding them on schedule, ensuring they get plenty of exercise and outdoor time, providing comfort when needed, and always prioritizing their happiness and health. I would and have gone to great lengths to ensure their safety and joy, treating them with the unconditional love they so freely give in return. I recently left my full-time job to pursue my families dream of owning and operating our own business, which we have now actually started together. With this significant life transition, I am seeking a flexible side opportunity that can generate additional income while aligning with helping those in need, all while getting to work with animals, especially dogs! When I discovered this app, it felt like the ideal combination, connecting with pet owners who require assistance with dog walking, playtime, check-ins, or basic care. It perfectly merges meaningful work, while providing companionship and support to animals. This opportunity fits perfectly with my values and allows me to make a positive difference in the lives of both pets and their owners. I am excited about the potential and eager to get started! Treating them with the care and respect they deserve, all while giving them the attention they want! I love being with them as much as they love being with us!
“Esmerelda is great at what she does, my dog warmed up to her very quickly and they had fun together. She's a really sweet lady and easy to talk to. This is my first time using the app but feel so comfortable leaving my puppy in good hands with Esmerelda.”

“We couldn’t be happier with Claudia’s service. She went above and beyond by staying longer than the 30 minutes required by Rover and took the time to play and entertain our cat which was a very nice surprise.You can definitely tell she loves and cares about animals. We had no worries at all knowing she was taking care of our cat while we were away on vacation and knew our cat was in great hands. We would highly recommend her!”

“Reagan did an amazing job taking care of our cat. Mama has a very hard time warming up to people but with Reagan, she was letting her pet her after only two days. Thank you Reagan for keeping our baby comfortable and happy!”

About: Hi! I’m Kyla, I am 21 years old and have always loved animals. I have rescued three dogs, and hosted adoption events to help our furry friends.

I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

“I found Britteny when I was looking for someone to puppy sit my dog for several hours while my kids and I were at George Ranch Historical Park. Not being from around the Richmond area, I was so happy to read all the reviews she had. Her great reviews was our experience as well. Our dog is extremely anxious but he warmed up to Britteny so quickly! She sent me photos letting me know he was having a great time. If we are ever back in Richmond, we will be using her again!”

I’m a retired teacher and empty nester and I’m home most of the time so your fur babies will get lots of love and attention! I’m retired so I’m home and available almost all of the time. I’d rather be at home with furry friends. They’ll get lots of love and attention with me. I have a large fenced yard and a one story house with wood floors. I’m an empty nester so it’s just me and my service dog at home. There’s no kids around just me and my sweet dog.
“It’s been a week since Layla was with Rowena. Just now I mentioned her name and Layla tore out of the room to look for her. When she couldn’t find her she started howling! I think it’s time for another visit! Thanks so much for loving Layla! She so clearly loves you back!”

About: I have an exceptional talent in making each and every canine and feline feel happy and loved. They thrive under my care, and love individual attention and understanding. Pet care is second nature to me, and fits extremely well with my current lifestyle of working part time and living in a retirement community. Pets cared for in my home are well loved and get lots of attention. I walk dogs regularly, and am exceptional at playing with and caring for them. I am in the backyard with them whenever they go outside.
“Lewis was excellent in watching Max and sending us updates. We have been extremely happy with how professional and caring Lewis is to our pup. Highly recommend Lewis for your daycare needs.”

“Great first daycare with Amanda. It’s always a nervous feeling when leaving my girl with a new sitter but Amanda put me at ease by sending pics and updates throughout the day. Pep will definitely be returning!!!!!”

About: Hi there, my name is Anne. I recently relocated here from the East Coast to be with my fiancé. As a stay-at-home furry mom who works part-time and from home, I have ample time to play with and shower your fur child with love, just like I do with mine. My fiancé also works from home, and my retired mom lives with us, so your baby will never be alone. There will always be someone in the same room with your baby, most likely sitting next to them. =) My animal experience: I’ve had dogs since elementary school and have never been without a canine companion since. Throughout high school and college, I expanded my pet care experience by babysitting various animals for church members, including dogs, rabbits, mini pigs, and birds. I also volunteered at the local animal’s shelter for 18 months when I was in my late twenties. I have had experience with puppies, senior dogs, and handicapped dogs in the past as well, so I am confident in my ability to care for them. Also, my fiancé is experienced in dog training and therapy work, and we currently share our home with two rescued Chihuahuas. We are both well versed in dog CPR, medication administration, and wound care. Our top priority is to provide a safe and positive experience for your furry baby while you are away. We ensure a secure, clean, and organized environment where your pet will feel relaxed, happy, and protected. * For new Rover customers - please use promo code ANNEQ60631 for a sweet $20 discount! =) Meet and Greet/Pick-up and Drop-off: To ensure everyone’s safety, especially the fur babies, only one pet parent will be allowed inside the house at a time. All fur children must be leashed upon arrival and throughout the Meet and Greet. Drop-off time: Anytime after 9 am. Exceptions may be made in certain situations. Please inform me in advance. I have a spacious fenced yard where your fur baby can romp and play alongside my two friendly Chihuahuas if they like. There's also plenty of room inside the house for your baby to roam freely, just like mine. Your baby is welcome on the couch and in my bedroom. My retired mom, in her seventies but looks and acts like she’s in her 50s, will pitch in and shower your baby with love, attention, and care as well. She sleeps upstairs and can sleep with your baby if they prefer to be away from other dogs. *There are security cameras outside and inside the house, recording 24 hours a day to ensure everyone’s safety.*
“Jia is pawsome caregiver! My new puppy found a good friend - Jia's poodle and he became well behaved, I guess puppy learned good manners from Jia's poodle. I also was getting regular updates with pictures. I can highly recommend Jia's services for day care and boarding.”
“Alejandro & Keyla were very responsive to my inquiries regarding their services. They wasted no time answering my questions and never left me hanging. They set up a meet-and-greet for us that went very well. They have a beautiful home with a backyard that was a perfect match for our pup, who loves to be outside most of the time. Cleo is our very first pet, and this was our first time having her cared for outside of our home. I had reservations about sending her to a kennel because of negative reports I’ve heard from friends who went that route with their pets. Yesterday was Cleo's first daycare experience with Alejandro & Keyla, and she had a great time! They took her for a walk, fed her on time, and helped her adjust to the other dogs in their home despite her high energy level. They sent us photos and videos of how Cleo was doing, and it was exciting to see that she was enjoying her time there. I feel very comfortable sending Cleo back to Alejandro & Keyla in the future because they took care of her as if we were family.”

About: Hi my name is Alan and my wife’s name is Valerie! I have become extremely enthusiastic about this app as it has given me the opportunity to meet and get to know new families, individuals and a few different dogs. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your pup and can’t wait to create a lasting relationship with everyone involved. My childhood growing up with my dogs i feel has given me a good amount of knowledge when it comes to walking, looking after, raising and potty training. My availability is a little spotty seeing as how I have a full time job but I love any and all dogs and I’m really hoping I can create new relationships with you and yours. I’m great with dogs and dogs are great with me. My wife is home everyday. And I will be home after 6pm. We are both home on weekends. Once she goes back to work after her maternity leave starting February 21, she will be home by 4pm. Valerie and I took a break from Rover for a while due to space issues but we just moved into our new house this past August 2022 and we are excited to provide a spacious home as well as a spacious fenced in backyard. We are also in a brand new community so it’s extra quiet here in our area.

About: I’ve had animals my whole entire life, I grew up with a lot of siblings which meant even more animals. My love for animals goes beyond, I will say I’m terrified of insects but I like to be kind to ALL and will do everything to protect them and get them somewhere safe. my animals are my absolute world, all my animals are rescues, I’ve always had a hard time saying no to an animals asking to be loved/cared for. I have done several successful TNR’s for cats in neighborhoods I’ve lived in, along with taking dogs/cats to vets and animal shelters and trying to help them be reunited with family/finding a forever home, always trying to help save as many as I can. I currently have one pup, 5 cats that live inside and 2 outside cats. I am a helicopter parent of my babies and I would love to be considered to be a helicopter for yours as well, I myself use Rover and I would love to meet you and your babies to assure our compatibility, as I do with mine, and rest assured if you do not feel completely comfortable I will not be offended, the ultimate goal is that our babies are well taken care of and we have peace of mind! I am not currently working besides Rover, so my schedule will be open for you, and I would love to provide your babies with all the care they will need while you’re away :) I unfortunately cannot offer in home care at this time. I have had animals of different temperaments or some that need extra care for medical reasons, I am not able to give shots but I am familiar with giving medications.
“Ashley has been walking my dog for several weeks now and she is fantastic! Very friendly and dependable, and great with communication! Will definitely continue to work with her in the future.”

About: FREE extra pets for sitting! Hi, I’m Andrew. I’m a US Army Veteran of the Iraq War, 2014 Texas A&M graduate, currently enrolled in an online graduate program through Texas Tech for Clinical Rehab Counseling. My goal is to work with other Veterans when I graduate. I walk multiple Rover doggos every morning and evening, and even weekends. I pride myself on being punctual, having good communication with my clients, and making bonds with the dogs I walk. Book me to add your loves to my schedule. I am a long-time dog owner, currently two huskies who I consider part of my family. I walk them every day, and they let me know when it’s time. Spoiled with love, toys, more love, treats, even more love, good food, a little more love and scratches of course. Since joining Rover, I’ve gained a wealth of experience handling dogs of different ages and needs, and clients with different expectations and levels of instruction. I’ve sat for disabled dogs, older dogs, young and hyper dogs. I’ve sat for and walked dogs in apartments, gated communities, even a senior living facility. And I’m ready to go above and beyond. I helped a client who had surgery by taking their dog to the vet. If I can do it, I will help. I have a big heart for pets. They love us unconditionally after all. They deserve it. Please note: I do not sit for or walk aggressive dogs or breeds known for dangerous behavior. I, as a provider, am open to legal liability if there’s ever any incidents. It’s simply not worth the risk, and though I am insured, I cannot afford the liability those types of incidents would require. I hope you understand, this is a business decision, not a judgment. Also please note I am not a dog trainer. My dogs are spoiled! If you are looking for someone to walk your dog like all those trainer videos, that’s not me. I want dogs to have fun on their walks, not feel like they just get what they can get out of them. I let them sniff around, look at ducks or squirrels, mark, all while maintaining safe boundaries for your pet and other pedestrians and pets. And none of this means I will not reinforce training expectations you have already instilled in your pet, simply let me know what those are. Feel free to reach out if you’d like to get to know me better. We can have a video chat. As to my schedule, I am currently in an online graduate program, so I have a flexible availability. Please reach out to me about my current walking schedule for regular clients as to what times I have available and what may be best for you. For some reason, this app allows people to book requests during times I am already booked, so that is one thing we’d have to discuss. What can you expect from me? Lots of love, cuddles, scratches, treats, playtime. Your pets will have my full attention. I know I charge a little more than others, but that’s because you’re paying for the best. Someone who is reliable, trustworthy with your home and pets, and who meets and exceeds your expectations and instructions. I once hired a sitter who didn’t realize I had a camera in my den. She spent 95% of the time I paid for to give my dogs some attention on her phone. She even swatted away my dogs when they approached! Then snapped some pics, fed them and left. I NEVER want my clients to feel that way. I will treat your pets the way I would hope people would treat my own.

“Nicole is amazing! Treats my dogs with love and takes her time. My puppy is so high energy and she’s so understanding and tries to work with him. This is why i keep coming back to her, I can have peace of mind when she’s taking care of my babies.”

“Esmeralda has been exceptional with her patience and willingness to be adaptable in working with our 2 dogs. Both have big trust issues and are very nervous to allow new people around them. She has devoted a lot of her extra time to make sure they get and feel comfortable with her. That being said, she has relieved a lot of stress and concern on my end for I want my dogs to feel as little anxiety and fear as possible as well as benefit from having the ability to go outside and go for a walk and get some fresh air. I hope Esmeralda can be a part of our household as long as possible and enjoys the dogs as much as I enjoy having her help.”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets since I was a little girl. I’m used to all breeds of dogs and own one from another country. I also own reptiles and a cat and truly appreciate taking care of them as family members. I’m currently working part-time from home/phone, so I have plenty of time to take care of pets. Most of my work is done by phone or computer, so working away from home will not be an issue. I have three dogs in my home that are very friendly with other dogs. I can visit your home, walk and play with your pet, and put them in their crates or room if you need.

“Patricia is a great Sitter. She treats my pet with love and kindness. She keeps me updated with pictures and videos. I know my pet is in good hands after I drop her off.”

“Andrea took such good care of my sweet boy Riley!! She gave him a bath and gave him treats! She gave me piece of mind knowing he was being well taken care of. I would definitely recommend her to take care of your pups!! She gets a 5/5 from me!!!”
“Neel and his family are very nice and supportive. Can’t express how grateful I feel to have them care for Cheese. They shared pictures/videos to us every day. Sydney is now the best friend of Cheese for sure. They sent Cheese to the vet when he does not feel very well. Communication is very easy. Will definitely be back in the future! Thanks Neel!”

“They do an amazing job looking after our two dogs when we are away. Communication is the best it could be, and the dogs really enjoy their time there. Thank you Alejandro and Keyla.”


“Gabriela is a wonderful dog sitter!! She is excellent at communicating and very flexible. I love that she sends updates with photos each day. I always feel like our dog is loved and cared for while we are gone.”

“Mona was such a great host for Luna. It was such a relief to find someone during the holidays and she was very accommodating and sent me almost daily update pictures which was amazing. When I picked her up she was clean and fed and Mona made it soo easy to pick her up after such a long tiring trip home. Luna and I are so grateful and thank you again.”

“We are very grateful for the care Molly received. She lived in a home surrounded by love and attention. We were always kept informed of her activities, and she was happy spending time with other furry friends. If necessary, Molly has a safe place to stay.”


“The absolute BEST!!!! It was my first time with a boarding experience and there are no words to describe the level of comfort I had with America keeping my little fur baby!! I can’t say enough about how awesome she is!!!”

“Kelly was great. She responded really quickly to my booking inquiry. Bailee seemed to have enjoyed himself. No reported issues and she kept us up-to-date with pictures. We look forward to using her again in the future.”

“Lily was so good with Nala and did an amazing job taking care of her. She was wonderful to work with and was very flexible when we had to adjust our pickup time and date. I would highly recommend her for anyone needing a sitter in the future!”

“Shang made boarding very easy. He communicated very well and was always quick to reply and sent me pictures. My dog had a great time at his house and playing with Shang’s dogs. Would definitely board Charles with him again.”

“This was our first time using Rover and we are so thankful to have picked Daniel and Kristy. They took lots of pictures and gave daily updates. Always promptly responded to any questions we had. Will definitely be using them again!”

“Amazing hosts and kept me updated the entire time. I was so happy with their service and am definitely going to keep coming back: I couldn’t ask for a better boarding experience: Above and beyond for my fur babies! Thank you so much.”

“Joanna and Brian were amazing. They took care of our dog Leo like their own. They both were very sweet and Leo made new friends with their dogs Davey and Lucy . Leo had a wonderful time . Definitely recommend them and use their service again. We were so happy that Joanna and Brian took great care of Leo while we were visiting Houston.”

“Bo was the best. Super communicative about everything going on with our dog. How he got on with other dogs that stayed with Bo while our dog was there. How our dog behaved in general and what he did (or didn’t) eat. He even was communicative when a hurricane passed over his house while our dog was there! Stellar in all accounts. Would use him again when we need a sitter.”

“We tried Janna for the first time reading all the reviews and surely everything went just perfect. She and her husband looked after my pet cat Mitten so nicely and made him feel home. I had regular pictures and updates from Janna and you could clearly see Mitten having a comfortable time there with her. In past Mitten always lost some weight, not this time, maybe gained a good pound or so in a healthy way. We'll definitely use Janna's services and would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet boarding.”
