“Wonderful experience with a seasoned sitter. Mollie was introduced to me by Rover and lives nearby. It was great to work with her and she had a great demeanor with my dog. They had fun and I looked forward to daily updates and photos. I felt my dog was in great hands and she seemed at ease with Mollie and staying in her home.”

“Jesse has been absolutely incredible with Rocco. He went above and beyond in caring for him, and it was clear from the start how much he genuinely cares about the animals he watches. Rocco was comfortable, well cared for, and in great hands the entire time, which gave me real peace of mind. Jesse was also super communicative and flexible, and really helped me out during a hectic stretch when I needed reliable support. I truly appreciate everything he did. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like their own.”

About: I've always loved animals and treat every pet like they're my own. I'm patient, dependable, and committed to making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or sticking to a specific routine, I pay close attention to each pet's individual needs and personality. I'm happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind and always strive to create a positive, stress free experience for both pets and their families. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care throughout the week. Because of my hours, I'm able to accommodate walks, drop in visits, and overnight stays in many cases. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide them with the attention, consistency, and care they deserve while you're away. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I make their safety and comfort my top priorities. I follow each owner's instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special care needs. I take the time to help pets feel comfortable in their environment, give them plenty of attention and affection, and keep a close eye on their well being. I also make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure during walks and outdoor time, and I'm happy to provide regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are doing well.
“Juan and his family took excellent care of our dogs while we went away for the weekend. The pictures and videos showed them eating well, having fun, being cuddled, and we were happy to hear our Max was given his meds right on schedule. We highly recommend Juan!”
“Anna was great! My dog is really shy and it was great to see all the updates Anna would send so I could see her comfortable and having a good time. Will definitely book again!”
“Karynne was absolutely amazing! We booked her last minute for our cat, Ramen, and she went above and beyond to make sure we felt confident he’d be well cared for. From the moment we met her, she was so genuine and accommodating. She sent us great photos and updates, and it was clear Ramen was happy and comfortable—honestly, he didn’t even want to leave when we picked him up! Her communication was excellent, and it’s such a relief knowing that when we need to travel again, we have someone Ramen truly loves. We are so grateful for her and highly recommend her to anyone needing a caring and attentive sitter.”

“We were very impressed with Esther from day one. Our Chihuahua/Terrier mix named London had such a wonderful time. London was able to interact with the other dogs and gain the interaction she does not receive on a daily basis. It truly felt like a doggy daycare in a warm, home setting. We have booked future dates and look forward to working with Esther more in the near future.”
“We cannot thank Twisha and Jerry enough! They were able to accommodate us last-minute, which was a lifesaver. They really catered to our two 4-month-old puppies and made sure their stay was incredibly comfortable. Handling two young pups is no easy task, but they handled it with so much care and attention. We will absolutely be booking again!”
“Ginger was well taken care of by Kristen and her family. How do I know?? It was the first time she came from a dogsitter that she was not stressed and anxious and took days to calm down.. Ginger was happy and calm from the moment we picked her up.They treated her like one of their own and even sent us lovely pictures of her enjoying her stay with them. So very grateful we found Kristen and happy too she is so close by!!! Will definitely be using her again in the future and recommend to friends.”

“Meeting with Bailey and Minnie Pearl went off without a hitch. She was so excited to meet Bailey and to share her favorite toys. As for me, it was instant trust, and I couldn’t be happier with Bailey. They played together and even took a brief walk while still learning the leash. Bailey was sweet and caring and has a positive energy and enthusiasm. I highly recommend her for your pet!”
“Kristin was great with Meeko! She stayed to play with him while we were gone and took great care of him! We came home to a very happy boy! Thank you Kristin!”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience! Jessica took such wonderful care of our cat during drop-in visits and truly went above and beyond what we expected. Her communication was exceptional she sent updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. You could tell she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. We will absolutely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter.”
“Melisa came by my house everyday for 12 days to check on my kitty. I appreciated the daily report card and photos. I never felt anxious and knew my cat was in good hands! I will definitely use her again! Don't hesitate to give her a try.”
“Courtney was professional and communicative, which made me feel safe leaving my cat Kimchi under her care for the longest period we’ve been gone since getting her. Getting pictures and little descriptions gave me peace of mind abroad. Thank you Courtney!!”
“Cocoa’s first drop in with Sara went well. They played together with Cocoa’s favorite toys. Cocoa told us all about it when we got home. We look forward to having Sara take care of Cocoa again.”
“Best Rover we have ever had! Both of our cats, including our skittish one who is pretty scared of people, absolutely loved her! During the time, she was very communicative and took incredible pictures! We would and will definitely rebook! We came back to a clean and good smelling house! Thank you!”
“I couldn't ask for a better experience with Tim. He was attentive, responsive, and carried out my (borderline unreasonable) instructions to the letter. My two cats took to him right away. (They trust nearly nobody; I was amazed by their immediate comfort with a new person.) Tim provided me with daily updates and I had no worries about their care while I was away. In short, Tim and Rover made me able to enjoy my vacation. Tim is my go-to for future sitting, full stop.”
“Madalyn always keeps our minds at ease while we are away from our kitties! We appreciate her consistency and her updates and photos. We will choose her again and again.”
About: I’ve really gotten to know the ins and outs of being an animal mom. I also got to spend my day caring for other people’s fur babies in my job as a vet tech. All these wonderful things combined give me a wealth of crucial experience that keeps your mind at ease knowing your kiddos are well cared for in your absence. Now that I’m permanently WFH, all I need is a reliable wifi connection to work from anywhere— including while I hang out with your fur baby! I wake up, let the fur kids out, feed breakfast, and before I started WFH, we’d all pile in the car to go to the park before work. Then, we’d spend the day together at the clinic. After that, we’d head home for dinner and a nice long walk before bed. My life has always revolved around my four legged kids! I like to establish guidelines with each owner regarding their pets schedule. Dogs and cats love routines, and part of pet sitting is to fit into what the animal is used to so that they don’t feel stress or uneasiness while their owner is away. I always work with the owner to find out what best works to keep the pet comfortable and feeling secure in their absence.
About: I’m comfortable caring for cats and understand their need for a calm, low-stress environment. I respect their space, follow feeding routines carefully, and ensure litter areas are kept clean and maintained. In the last two years, I cared for two senior cats through complex medical needs, including end-of-life support. I’m comfortable providing gentle, attentive care for older pets and following detailed instructions.
“Megan has babysat my critters a couple of times now, and she always does a great job. This time she went above and beyond when we found out I didn’t have enough food at the house. Being out of state, I had no way of getting her food, and she not only got them food but went out of her way to make sure they got exactly what they needed. She is fantastic! I’ll be using her for all of my trips, and I’d recommend Megan for anyone leaving town for the weekend or a long trip. She’s the best!”
“Kayla did an amazing job keeping our cat company while we were gone! She kept her engaged with her puzzle treats and hung out with her throughout the day. Also provided lots of updates and pictures. Would definitely recommend!”
“If I could give Matt 20 stars I would. He is a kind, open, generous person who stayed with my cat to the end when she took a sudden turn for the worse while we were out of town. He kept me informed and kept her comfortable. His grace will never be forgotten”

“Megan took the best care of my little girl. She even continued her care after my baby broke her leg. Megan gave her the pain medication as needed and on schedule, and most importantly, I was put at ease with her texts and videos giving me updates confirming she was giving plenty of TLC. I will definitely ask Megan to watch my furbaby in the future!!!!”

“She provided great tips and care for such a last minute request! My pup came back happy as ever and loved hanging out with her pup as well! Highly recommend Iliana for your pets!”
“Lola had a wonderful day with Karen. She treated Lola just like family, giving her so much love, affection, and attention. Karen was able to send updates and pictures of Lola throughout the day. I know Karen will be my first go-to person to care for my little angel. I recommend Karen wholeheartedly! She’s wonderful!”
“Cannot say enough good things about Cathy!! Excellent communication and pictures, plus very accommodating to my whacky work hours. My dog can be reactive with bigger dogs, but Cathy was a pro and Bentley is clearly an angel with smaller dogs. You can tell she prioritizes safety and comfort with all the dogs she cares for, and adjusts introductions as needed. Total success! I can’t wait to book with her again :)”
“Max was absolutely amazing! He sent me tons of pictures all of which showed my dog having a blast with his own dogs. It’s clear my dog felt right at home with Max and his crew. Highly recommend!!”

“Anna took great care with my little guy who was very anxious about staying over the first time. She had him sit in her lap while she worked at her desk. He sat in her lap while she ran a few errands. It was clear that he regards her as a good friend when he went running up to her for the next day's drop off. Anna is a real dog lover.”
“This was my first time using Rover and Sarah couldn’t have been a better choice for my dog and I. Beemer is 13 years old and I have only left him with very close friends but Sarah made he, and I, feel like family from the start! She was very responsive and sent me updates and photos throughout the day, without me even having to request!!! The care she has for animals is top tier and I will definitely be reaching out to her again soon! Thank you, Sarah and fam!”

“Lynda was great with the dogs! She is so friendly and loves getting them up and moving! I asked for them to be just taken outside, and to my surprise she also took them on a walk through our neighborhood. She goes above and beyond and I am so appreciative of everything she does!”
About: I’ve taken care of my dogs and some neighbors dogs all my life. Starting from puppy training to becoming responsible on the daily habits of walking your dog, making sure to give them food and water everyday, play with them and more. How some people are really good with kids? That’s me but with pets! I am currently in college so around my schedule, I have all the free time in the world to spend precious time with your child while you’re away! We have a fenced yard at my house which has prepared me for picking up poops around the yard if need be. My dog when hot we will bring him in and lay in the crate so I can be flexible for the needs of your pet.
“I am so lucky to have found someone so amazing to walk my puppy Moose! Demetria went above and beyond for Moose! She was amazing at communicating and allowed a meet and greet before our official booking to make sure Moose and I were both comfortable and at ease. She sent lots of pictures which made me feel really happy about how Moose was being treated! She also left a really thorough summary of their walk. As someone that feels so bad leaving my dog, Demetria sure made me feel at ease! I cannot say more good things! She went above and beyond!! You can tell she truly loves dogs and will treat your own furry friend like her own!”
“Best dog sitter out there. Expected her to walk Jake and leave. Melisa stayed with Jake until we returned. Would hesitate to leave Jake with her for 6 month. Amazing people with a beautiful soul. God has blessed you Melisa. Hope to see you soon”
“Sara was a lifesaver for our two dogs and cat while we had a long weekend trip. She walked them and played with them twice a day and sent several great pictures. Will definitely rebook with Sara again!”
“Tim is timely and when he arrives he quickly leashes and starts walks. The dogs are excited to see him and they are eager to head out the door. They do the loop in the neighborhood and each dog gets one on one for the walk”
About: As a mom of three, caring for others comes naturally to me. My son loves animals and enjoys joining me on walks, but I am always the one responsible for your pet’s care. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities, and I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, administering routine medications, and providing plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. My goal is to treat every dog like part of the family. We love doing special things for the dogs in our care, whether that’s an extra walk, a fun outing, lots of playtime, or simply extra cuddles and attention. Whether your pup loves adventure or prefers a quiet day at home, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My schedule is very flexible during the summer. My children attend camp during the weekdays, which allows me to be home frequently and provide plenty of attention, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. During the week, I can offer a consistent routine with regular feeding schedules, exercise, and lots of interaction. I understand that dogs thrive on structure, so I do my best to maintain the routines they're accustomed to at home. Weekends vary a bit more for our family, as we occasionally travel or have plans, so I keep my Rover calendar updated and only accept bookings when I know I can give pets the time and attention they deserve. Because I have a flexible schedule and spend much of my time at home, I'm able to provide attentive care, frequent check-ins, and plenty of love and companionship while you're away. Safety, reliability, and communication are my top priorities. During walks and drop-in visits, I follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, medications, and any specific instructions you provide. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and comfort level. Some pets love lots of play and activity, while others prefer a calmer approach. I take the time to build trust with each animal and ensure they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away. During walks, I prioritize safe leash handling, awareness of surroundings, and making sure your pet gets appropriate exercise based on their age, energy level, and needs. During drop-ins, I'll make sure your pet has fresh water, attention, playtime, and companionship—not just a quick visit. I also respect your home as if it were my own. I'll follow any household instructions, keep things tidy, and make sure doors, gates, and locks are secure before leaving. You'll receive updates and photos after each visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

Rocco was comfortable, well cared for, and in great hands the entire time, which gave me real peace of mind. Jesse was also super communicative and flexible, and really helped me out during a hectic stretch when I needed reliable support. I truly appreciate everything he did. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like their own.”
“Breanna and her husband did a wonderful job sitting for our Dax for the second time! They both were so communicative and sent lots of pictures! Dax got plenty of playtime while with Breanna!”
“Megan watched our mini schnauzer for a week and I know Lulu had a great time and was well cared for - Megan sent frequent updates and pictures. It made our trip more enjoyable knowing Lulu was also having fun.”
About: I've always loved animals and treat every pet like they're my own. I'm patient, dependable, and committed to making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or sticking to a specific routine, I pay close attention to each pet's individual needs and personality. I'm happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind and always strive to create a positive, stress free experience for both pets and their families. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care throughout the week. Because of my hours, I'm able to accommodate walks, drop in visits, and overnight stays in many cases. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide them with the attention, consistency, and care they deserve while you're away. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I make their safety and comfort my top priorities. I follow each owner's instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special care needs. I take the time to help pets feel comfortable in their environment, give them plenty of attention and affection, and keep a close eye on their well being. I also make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure during walks and outdoor time, and I'm happy to provide regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are doing well.
“Juan and his family took excellent care of our dogs while we went away for the weekend. The pictures and videos showed them eating well, having fun, being cuddled, and we were happy to hear our Max was given his meds right on schedule. We highly recommend Juan!”
“Anna was great! My dog is really shy and it was great to see all the updates Anna would send so I could see her comfortable and having a good time. Will definitely book again!”
“We cannot thank Twisha and Jerry enough! They were able to accommodate us last-minute, which was a lifesaver. They really catered to our two 4-month-old puppies and made sure their stay was incredibly comfortable. Handling two young pups is no easy task, but they handled it with so much care and attention. We will absolutely be booking again!”
“We boarded our dog with Dave for about two weeks. Dave was responsive and kept us up to date with videos and updates the whole time we were gone. We plan to book with him again next time we have to go out of town”
“We loved dawn taking care of our pup! She was very nice, communicative, sent updates and photos/videos regularly. Lexie had a great time in her care! I would definitely use dawn again in the future, thank you for taking such good care of my girl!!!”
“AMAZING!! Stayed in communication daily! Took great care of Milo! Gave tips, sent pictures daily, and spoiled him rotten! Highly recommend! Will continue to to use!”
“Emmarose was fantastic with Ranger! She provided regular updates, photos, and videos, and it was clear he was getting plenty of attention and care. She was attentive to his needs and even worked with him on training. I felt completely comfortable leaving Ranger with her and would gladly book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Cathy was wonderful from the meet up and throughout the stay. We were out of country and hated leaving our babies but she comforted us with lots of updates and pictures! Our dog and hers loved each other which was great! My old bulldog loved the couch and chair with lots of pillows and blankets. We did not have to worry about them while we were so far away which was great!”
“Janelle did a wonderful job caring for my Tommy. When my daughter dropped him off, she was pleasantly surprised by how many thoughtful questions Janelle asked to learn more about him. It was clear she wanted to make sure Tommy felt comfortable and didn’t miss home. I really appreciated the updates and photos—though I would have loved even more pictures, I always felt reassured knowing Tommy was in such good hands.”
“Grey and his partner were wonderful. My dog was well cared for and loved, and I already booked her next visit with them. My dog doesn't need special accommodations, but they were prepared for extra time, yard time (she loved that), sleep on furniture, etc. They also communicated well for meet/greet, drop off, pick up, and the times they were in the house - with pictures. My pup is heading back for my next out of town trip, because she liked staying there.”
“Oakley was safe and had lots of friends to play with. We received photos and great communication. Tambre is kind and clearly loves dogs. Thank you for making it easy on us!”
“Alana is so kind and did a great job caring for our pup over the Christmas week. He came home happy, smelling great, with the cutest bandana and a little Christmas gift. Totally spoiled him! He came home tired from playing with her pups, too. Definitely recommend Alana!”
“Allison and her husband have a great and welcoming space that appeared great for our girl. They were also both very friendly and warm upon meeting us. I very much appreciated all the communication efforts being responded-to timely and the photos during her stay. We will definitely use Allison again!”
