“Leslie was wonderful! I booked last minute and she was very accommodating and quick to respond. She even took some beautiful pictures of my girl 🫶🏾 I will absolutely be booking with her again in the future! Thank you, Leslie!”
“I am very happy to have had Kim's help. An issue came up during the stay and I had to extend the time, and Kim helped me out. Toby was well cared for and she took him for a walk to burn off some energy. If I need help again, I wouldn't hesitate for a second to contact her.”
“I’m usually a nervous wreck anytime I leave Benny but Emi went above and beyond taking care of him while I was gone! She sent me multiple pictures throughout the day & I could tell he was enjoying himself with all of the toys she had for her own dog. 100% will be booking her again in the future!”
“Kristen did a phenomenal job with Benaiah! Ben was like part of the family. When I picked him up he wasn't anxious or in a hurry to leave - which really says everything. Highly recommended!”
“Emily did a wonderful job boarding my dog for a long weekend. She was responsive, gave updates, and followed care instructions. My dog has a moderately high energy level and she was able to take him on two long walks a day to meet that. I'd happily book with Emily again in the future.”
“We have used Jocelyn for years and she is the best! She truly runs a little dog haven and we love sending our baby there to socialize with his other little friends. Your dog might just have more fun with Jocelyn than you do on your trip!”
“Amy and Chelsea provide exceptional care for my dog, Georgia. They are incredibly kind and attentive, always ensuring she is well cared for and comfortable. Their dedication is evident in the daily updates they provide, keeping me informed about her well-being and activities. Their consistent communication gives me peace of mind, as I never have to wonder how she is doing—I always feel connected and reassured. I am truly grateful for their professionalism and compassion, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my beloved Georgia.”
“Kayla has been wonderful. I mistakenly shorted my booking by one day and Kayla accommodated me even tho she didn't have to. I really appreciate Kayla being so genuine and intentional! Peyton has earned allergies and she made sure he got his ear drops daily. He came home with no more itchy red ears! PeytonPooch had a wonderful time.”
“Shu was amazing with our cat, she took such good care and he really enjoyed the time spent with her. She went way above and beyond, keeping us informed and even checking if he had fleas and applying the treatment. Thank you so much and for sure will come back next time we need a cat sitter!”
“As a drop off: Great service, I’m new to this and the host showed a lot of hospitality. I was nervous at first because my pet is a crybaby but she came back just as happy if not the same. I received quick/reasonable response times a lot with photos even without asking.”
“Lucie stayed with Randy for eleven days while I was away on a last-minute trip. My plans kept changing, and Randy was incredibly flexible and accommodating each time. I even needed to switch from drop-off to pickup just two hours beforehand and extend Lucie’s stay by an extra day, and Randy handled everything quickly and kindly. Lucie came home very happy, and it’s clear she had a fun and relaxing time with the other pups.”
“Elena has confirmed a wonderful sitter. I left my Frida again to her for >1 week, and I couldn’t be more happy for how she took care of her. She pays attention to details and she is always able to understand dogs behavior and put them in their own comfort zone. Every day she sent me uodates and picture of Frida. Frida was happy to see her again, and this shows how good she has been at Elena’s house. I would definitely recommend Elena, as I will reach out to her again when I will need.”
“Great sitter. Left my dogs with her for two days, and she took amazing care of them. They were loved and cared for, and she kept me updated with pictures during their stay.”
“We are so fortunate to have found Claire! She took such sweet care of our girl while we were gone and proactively provided updates and photos. Our dog is typically so nervous away from home that she doesn’t eat well, and she seems to have felt right at home with Claire. We will certainly be reaching out to her first for any future trips!”
“I could not be happier with Elezha’s care of our Khloe. She kept me informed of her daily activities and sent pictures each day. Khloe was extremely well taken care of and was right at home when I picked her up. Elezha definitely cares and it shows! I will definitely be contacting her again if we ever need services again. It’s a great feeling to know Khloe was left with someone who cared for her like family. Five stars for sure!!”
“I cannot recommend her enough! She took such great care of my puppy and treated him like her own. She was incredibly kind and communicative, sending me pictures and updates throughout the stay so I always knew he was happy and safe. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I will absolutely be rebooking with her!”
“Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Cody! He was so relaxed and happy when I got home. I highly recommend Andrew to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter."”
“Michael and his family took great care of Cookie. Always sent a pic update everyday. Everything went smooth and my pup was happy to be at his place. Would definitely use his services in future!”
“Francois did a phenomenal job taking care of my puppy. He provided plenty of updates and pictures throughout the duration of stay. The family showed my puppy so much love, and I look forward to booking with them again.”

“Olivia was a fantastic sitter for our cat when we were gone on an extended trip. She kept us up to date on when she would arrive each day, provided us updates on our cat and lots of cute photos to help soften any nerves about leaving our pet for so long! Olivia went above and beyond to also alert us when she noticed an unusual beeping noise started going off, and helped pin point the noise to a smoke alarm battery so we could send a friend to resolve the issue. We would highly recommend her!”
“I was extremely pleased with Natalie's care of my cat, Leeloo. She went to great lengths to send photos of Leeloo who would find the toughest spots to hide in. I appreciate how prompt Natalie was with responding to my request, given that it was fairly last minute and on a holiday weekend. I would definitely recommend Natalie to everyone.”
“Mikayla is amazing! She has been so good about keeping me informed every time she visits my babies and has really put my mind at ease every time she goes to see them. I’m so grateful for her sending me all the pictures of my kitties during her visits and her communication with me throughout her visits.”
“Bianca was amazing!! She was always on time, sent great pics, and even came to meet our pup the day before. She did such a great job and we look forward to using her again for future trips!”
“Bailee took such great care of my cat! She made sure she had everything she needed while we were gone. She had great communication and my cat seemed to like her (she doesn’t usually like strangers). Will definitely be booking again next time!”
“Sama was fantastic at caring for our cat while we were on a trip. In addition to being super reliable with regular caretaking tasks, she was able to make our cat comfortable by adjusting to his needs and behaviors. Our cat is usually wary and slow to adjusting to new people, but during the trip was able to engage in active play and express normal personality traits due to the level of comfort. We recommend Sama!”
“As a drop off: Great service, I’m new to this and the host showed a lot of hospitality. I was nervous at first because my pet is a crybaby but she came back just as happy if not the same. I received quick/reasonable response times a lot with photos even without asking.”
“Catherine was wonderful! She is sweet, always prompt in responding to messages, and took great care of our kitty Garbanzo. She was also accomodating with our weird key situation and we would definitely book her again!”
“Grace did a great job taking care of our cat while we were gone. She was very communicative and offered to help with little things like watering our potted plants, taking in the mail, and taking out the trash. We wouldn't hesitate to book her again!”
“Very happy with Heather! She always communicated quickly & my babies were safe & happy when I got back. Thank you Heather, hopefully I'll get to use you in the future ☺️”
“Emily was great! She made time to come by and see our cat prior to our trip which was nice since this was our first time using a cat sitter. It definitely put our minds at ease. Her drop-in reports with pictures were fun to get and she communicated when she was going to do a drop-in a little late due to bad weather. We would definitely use her again!”
“Joe was reliable and communicative. He is incredibly kind and took great care of my two cats. My kitties were a bit hesitant at first (they’re pretty shy and tend to be a bit skittish around men), but he didn’t push, treated them with patience, and they were happy to greet him by the end of his drop-in week. I enthusiastically recommend him as a pet sitter! It’s so nice to be away and to know my pets are safe.”
“Couldn’t say enough good things! My cat Ducky, is older with some health problems and an attitude at times. Dani did so good with her. The updates were so comprehensive, and I felt very safe with Ducky in her care. I would use her again in a heartbeat.”
“I’m a returning client! I let Nupur know about a previous situation where my cat got a bit spooked and Nupur was very patient with her during her visit. She sat with her in the beginning until she was more comfortable.”
“Kayla checked on our cats while we were out of town and made sure to send lots of pictures and updates. She was very responsive if I had any questions and made me feel so comfortable leaving our cats in her care!”

“Tommie and Jeffry took great care of our pup and worked really well with us on drop off and pick up timing. The updates and pics made the stay stress free for us. Thank you so much!!”
“I’m a first time dog owner and I was beyond impressed with Chelsie with our 6 month old puppy. She would send pictures and kept us updated. She was even willing to come pick up our puppy instead of us having to meet her at her place once. We will continue to use Chelsie in the future.”
“Burak took the best care of Kai! He was so accommodating to our schedule and made this trip super easy! Can’t wait to be back in Houston and see him again! Thank you Burak!”

“Steven is the best doggie daycare on the Rover. He is caring, responsive, attentive and understanding. He took special care of my Yorkie and sent me pictures Parson during the day. I can’t wait to use him again and I’ve already referred him to my friends.”
About: I tailor each walk to your dog’s needs and energy level. Whether your pup enjoys a relaxed stroll or an active run, I’m happy to match their pace and help them get the exercise they need. You can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and a consistent part of your pet’s routine, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for every time we’re together. As a full-time student with a very flexible summer schedule, I have plenty of availability to provide reliable and consistent pet care. I’m an active person who enjoys daily walks and runs, so dog walking naturally fits into my routine. I love spending time outdoors, and I’m committed to making sure every dog gets the exercise, attention, and care they deserve. I always follow your instructions and make your pet’s safety my top priority. I’ll make sure your dog gets the right amount of exercise based on their age, energy level, and needs while keeping them comfortable and happy throughout the walk. I pay close attention to leash safety, avoid situations that could be stressful or unsafe, and will always treat your pet as if they were my own. You can also expect regular updates and photos, so you’ll know your dog is having a great time while you’re away.
“Christina was wonderful with Layla! She sent updates and photos and was so patient even though Layla is still getting potty trained. Definitely will be rebooking in the future!”
About: I’ve been around dogs for years and have experience caring for pets for friends, neighbors, and family. I’m comfortable with different sizes, breeds, and personalities, including energetic dogs and those who need a little extra patience. 🐶 I take pride in being reliable, attentive, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I went to school to be a veterinarian so it is something I truly love.💕 I also have a car, so I’m flexible and able to travel, and I’m great with following specific care instructions and routines. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I keep a very flexible schedule so I can be available when pet parents need me most. I’m open for morning, midday, and evening visits, as well as weekends. Since I plan my days around bookings (and this is my only job), I’m able to give pets consistent attention and not rush through visits or walks. I also try to be accommodating with last-minute requests whenever possible. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for every pet, whether I’m in my home or a client’s home. I always follow the pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walk times, and any specific instructions. I’m very attentive during walks and visits, making sure pets are secure, hydrated, and never put in unsafe situations. I also keep spaces clean, double check doors and gates, and make sure pets feel relaxed and cared for while their owner is away. (exactly what I would want for my own pet!) I believe communication is important, so I provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pet is in the best hands!
“Jessica was great! She clearly loves animals and my pup bonded with her. It is always hard to leave a pup with someone new, but Jessica was very thoughtful in introducing my Bonni to her pets, and she held Bonni to give her comfort at drop off and kept me updated with pictures. I will not hesitate to drop Bonni off with her again.”
“Kimberly was amazing with my doggy! She was caring, reliable, and kept me updated which gave me so much peace of mind! :) Zoey was happy and well cared for 🤍”
“Erica was amazing. This was my first time using Rover and she took great care of my dog Hank. She is nice and responsive. Hank is a little shy but was happy to go see her the second and 3rd day. I definitely recommend her.”
“Ayanna was incredibly pleasant to interact with and very accommodating for Brody's last-minute booking. She kept me updated throughout his stay and even took plenty of pictures. Brody will certainly be returning, as I highly recommend her.”
“Keith and Rachel were super welcoming to our dog, they walked her even during the day, gave her lots of attention and care, and sent frequent photos. We felt completely at easy and would happily book with them again.”

“Kendall was so great! Perfect with Shorty, great on checking in, flexible when either of our schedules needed some changes. I would recommend her for any and all dog walk needs, especially in South Philly! Yay Kendall!”
About: I have fostered dogs and cared for both dogs and cats my entire life, and I genuinely enjoy helping people who need support with their furry sidekick while they are away. I am a pet parent myself to an anxious rescue puppy, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your animal. I have experience with reactive dogs, anxious dogs, and all kinds of rescue backgrounds. I have also had cats, so I am familiar with every temperament and never take anything personally. I previously cared for a senior dog who needed daily medication, so I am comfortable and experienced giving medications to both cats and dogs. I have fostered puppies and adult dogs as well, so I can easily handle any medication or special requests. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. I’m currently a doctoral student and do most work from home so my schedule is very open and flexible. I am available everyday of the week and open schedule for timing. I do not have a backyard, however I live next to Midtown park that has a dog park that very few dogs attend and so your furry friend will have many opportunities to run around! I do have one anxious dog that will be kept away from your pet if needed. However, your pet will have access to the 2 bedroom apartment and their own room to sleep in.
“We needed someone at the very last minute to care for our Goldendoodle over a weekend, and Sarah not only stepped in but was an absolute lifesaver! She was reliable, punctual for every walk, and went above and beyond by spending extra time playing with and caring for our dog. Sarah was incredibly responsible, communicative, and clearly genuinely cared about our pup's well-being. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. I would absolutely book her again and can only hope she's available the next time we need help!”

“Patricia has been walking my dog for almost a year now and I can’t say enough good things, I’ve even had neighbors give me compliments on how much activity my dog is getting while I’m away! She’s also extremely reliable and has been available in a pinch when I’ve had extenuating circumstances and needed last minute help. Would highly recommend!”
“She is so good with my pup - she really pays attention to how my dog is waking, Or moving, and monitors how well she is doing when it is very hot outside! She will message me with any concerns and really wants to know that pup is ok. Pups absolutely love her visits!”
