“Terez watched Reese for us during a quick weekend getaway. She was very flexible with our schedule in accommodating a pick up and drop off for us since we lived so conveniently close. Reese felt right at home with her. We will definitely use Terez again!”
“Julie is without a doubt the very best. Her kindness, care and understanding of Mojo’s needs was 2nd to none. My dog is now a 6 year old Havadoodle with significant separation issues. He took to Julie immediately on our first meet up and was happy to spend the week with her during my travels. I am so grateful for her many updates throughout each day, with photos that proved Mojo was happy to be in her care. If there was a 10 star review permitted, I would happily give Julie this rating without hesitation. Except for of course the dates that Mojo needs her !”
“Kayla and Adam were wonderful hosts for our little Bonnie! This was Bonnie’s first time staying anywhere without us, but Kayla and Adam obviously love dogs and were simply great with her. Kayla sent reports with pictures several times a day, putting our minds at ease. And the fact that our dog, a very nervous and picky eater, was relaxed enough to eat on her first day told us very clearly that she was doing fine and felt at home with Kayla and her family. Thank you Kayla and Adam - we’ll be back!!”
“Jennifer and Louis were very friendly and accommodating for me and my pup first overnight stay I was very nervous in the beginning due to it being my dog first overnight stay. I a new to the app and was looking for a playful friendly dog that my dog can stay and play with occasionally. We have found one thank you Jennifer and Louis for your hospitality pictures and videos everything went great!”
“First time using Rover. Shane was magnificent and my dog is so upbeat. Definitely will use him again. He sent constant updates and pictures of how my dog was going throughout the stay.”
“Catherine and Nikhit were absolutely amazing in caring for our dog when we were away for three weeks. The communication was seamless and we received lots of updates and photos. The best part is that we could tell that they formed a genuine bond with our dog and we had complete confidence that he was extremely well cared for. We are so grateful to them and absolutely recommend to others looking for exceptional care for their pups.”
“Dena truly took care of Tommy as if he were her own. I received daily updates, pictures, and even a video. She is responsive to ask communication. Flexible with the schedule for pick up and drop off. My cat was in wonderful, capable hands the entire time. I'm looking forward to booking her again in the future.”

I was super pleased with all of the photos and detailed updates about my pup’s temperament.

“Sophia is amazing! My cat is terrified of other people and usually never comes our when I am away. Sophia was able to get her to come out and even let her give some pets. I appreciated we patience and the care she took with my little fur baby.”
“It was great having Megan care for my cat, Bella. She sent plenty of pictures and updates, which was reassuring during my travels. Thanks, Megan!”
About: I may be brand new to Rover but I’m not new to caring for animals! I absolutely love cats and have had them my whole life. I’ve cared for just about every type of cat imaginable; from shy to feisty, and from kittens to senior cats needing end-of-life care. I’ve pretty much done it all. I’m also comfortable administering some medications, including pills and liquids as well as eye drops. The reality is, I low-key just want to hang out with your cats. 😂 A 30-minute drop-in is the default, but if I have the extra time, I’m often more than happy to stick around a little longer just to hang out with them. I'm also a guinea pig parent and am comfortable with guinea pig care. I'm comfortable with guinea pig handling, daily feeding, cage cleanings and fleece bedding changes. Since guinea pigs aren't listed on rover, I count 1-3 guinea pigs as the cost of 1 cat. Because, we all know, you gotta have more than 1 guinea pig 😊
“Shane is a wonderful sitter. He was very communicative and I felt very confident that my kitty was in good hands with him. He made sure to let me know how she was doing while I've been gone, sent very cute pictures, and let me know how she was doing. Highly recommend, and I plan on asking for him to sit again in the future”
“Keri was amazing with my 2 cats! She was very communicative and gave the cats all the love and affection while I was away! I would absolutely use Keri again as a Rover and would highly recommend to anyone!”
“Byul (and her husband) were wonderful with my two cats! They provided detailed summaries and numerous pictures from each visit, and were super responsive and communicative throughout my time away. They followed food/water/litter preferences to a tee, and ensured my cats had ample play time twice a day. They were even kind enough to clean up several accidents after my cats decided that the holidays were a perfect time to start having tummy issues, and Byul and her husband made sure to monitor their behavior and checked the home for other accidents. Most importantly, my cats loved Byul and I was at ease knowing they were receiving great care. I’d highly recommend Byul and her husband if you need a pet sitter!”
“We love having Abbey come spend time with our former feral cat while we’re out of town. We so appreciate all the photos she sends and it’s clear he absolutely adores her company. Highly recommend Abbey; we never have to worry while we’re gone!”
“Rachel took great care of Salem, who is a pretty mellow guy. She was especially helpful when we had an issue with our door unexpectedly, and communicated all challenges. We are so grateful for her!”
“Yulia went above and beyond while taking care of my cat, Pico. I highly recommend her and would love for her to care for him again! Thank you so much, Yulia!!”
“I had a great experience meeting and booking with Alison and I really appreciated her excellent communication, responsiveness, and flexibility. My cat Zoe was happy and well-cared for, as seen in her fun photos. I’m already booked as a repeat client with Alison!”
“Robin was communicative and asked some great questions to make sure she could take the best care of our cats! They were well taken care of, would definitely book her again.”
“Issi is by far the best cat sitter I’ve had. My cat was immediately comfortable with her and was completely stress free when I returned. Issi really loves and understands cats. She is conscientious and personable. My house looked better than when I left.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs all my life and I’m looking forward to taking care of yours. I have a dog of my own who is a 28lb mini labradoodle. She's super sweet and social, and part of the reason I like to dog sit is because she likes having a buddy around to play with. I work from home every day so Sage and I will be with your dog all day! I live in an apartment building but I am near a walking trail and dog park. I work from home so I'll be home during day! In case I have to run out for errands I would like to know how you board your dog when you're away. I will be available if you have any questions/concerns. **Please ensure that your dog comes fully groomed/clean!** I take my dog on a long walk once in the morning (8 am) and once in the afternoon (5:30 pm) with a short potty break mid day and right before bed. I can adjust my schedule to ensure your dog feels comfortable! If I go to a dog park but I typically go early in the mornings or mid day when it is empty. If you don’t want your dog at a dog park at all that’s 100% fine with me!
“This was our 2nd time booking Sara and she was great once again! She checked in the day before our trip and took great care of our cats. My shy cat even warmed up to her right away (:”
“Laura was AMAZING. This was my first time leaving my cat Dublin with a sitter so I was quite nervous. Laura was great with Dublin, she was communicative and sent pictures. There was so point on my trip where I felt stressed or worried about Dublin as I knew Laura was handling things! 100/10 review. Thank you Laura!!!”

“Jennifer was amazing and helped me out last minute when another rover sitter cancelled! She was super responsive and Spike enjoyed spending the day with her and Louis :) I would definitely book again!”
About: I have three years old golden doodle. We have scheduled potty walk and play time at least three times per day. I might spoil your dog with good caring ❤️ Morning potty walk / lunch play & walk (30-40mins) / evening play &walk (30-40mins) + before bed time pee walk. Also scheduled meal time after walk. I keep dogs happy but also safe. I normally share photos of your dog regularly to make sure you know your dog’s doing well through Rover app.
“I always get nervous leaving my 1 year old pup with someone new, but Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful and exceeded all my expectations. I could tell immediately that she’s a dog person, and she sent me tons of updates throughout the day. I’m so grateful for her and will be booking again next time I need daycare!”
About: I used to be a manager at a dog shelter which I absolutely loved before moving to a new state. I’ve also grown up on a farm and handled all types of pets from goats, pigs, cows to dogs, cats, hamsters, and fish. I believe every animal deserves to be treated as family not just a pet. I am always home until 3pm when I leave for work, but when I am not home my partner is home. Someone will always be there to take care of your furry or scaly family and will never be left without someone even for a second. They will be welcomed with love, play, and kindness in my home. We will ensure nothing is around that will harm the animal whether it is cables, shoes, food, etc. we will always be around to ensure your pet is taken care of and in good health.

“Jessica took amazing care of Luna. She was communicative during her stay, sending me photos and letting me know how she was doing. This was very reassuring when using a new pet sitter. Luna also took a liking to her and we look forward to booking again with her.”
“Gwen was outstanding. She gave full attention our dog and sent several photos and updates throughout the day. We could tell our dog had a great time! Highly recommend!”
“Russ and Andra are excellent dog sitters! They are very reliable and treat our dog like one of their own. They always send cute pictures and videos of our pup running around, playing, and relaxing. Our pup Twyla has the best time when she visits Russ and Andra!”
“My pup had the best time with Laura’s family! Laura is so attentive, responsive and thoughtful, I knew Benny was in secure hands. Her boys are the sweetest and delightful match for Benny. Benny had such a good time the first day, he didn’t even look back at me once when i dropped him off for daycare at Laura’s place the next day. I could tell he much enjoyed Laura and her family, and was loved at their place!”
“This was the first time leaving my senior pup with Valbona. He's a little skidding after some nigh life changes, but she was so caring and took amazing care of Kent.”
“Sarah and Ben took such great care of Brady! I couldn’t have asked for a better setup for my golden. This in-home doggy daycare was the perfect mix of comfort and socialization—especially with another golden there to play with. I had peace of mind knowing that he was safe and being cared for during my long work shift. He came home tired and clearly very happy. The one-on-one attention, safe environment, and built-in playmate made all the difference.”
“Adriana has been an amazing sitter for Rosie! Rosie is always excited to see her, which gives me peace of mind whenever I leave her in Adriana’s care. She is responsible, reliable, and incredibly accommodating, and I always know Rosie will be well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”
“We were so happy with the care they provided. I loved the updates and photos and even though I made a mistake and booked the wrong dates Eduardo was able to accommodate the change in time/dates. We will trust them with our puppy in the future and highly recommend them”
About: Hello there! Taking care, and loving dogs has always come naturally to me as I’ve had dogs in the house ever since I was born. Having professionally walked and taken care of dogs for over 5 years, I have a background in taking care of puppies, up to older dogs. I now how have a fur baby of my own, Oatis, and we would love to host your pup for play and cuddle time! Oatis is a 8 year old mixed breed who loves other dogs and has frequented doggy day care. If your dog has anything that could make their time more enjoyable, please let me know any dislike or likes I should be aware of! I work fully remote so I will be with your dog all day! We have a fenced in backyard that pups can frequent, and Oatis will make sure to give warm welcome to any new dogs in the home. Having grown up with a diverse group of dogs in the house, I know how to properly take care of and respond to dogs of all ages and sizes. I am happy to learn more about each pet and make sure to offer their parent and themselves the best experience possible! Safety and the happiness of the pet is my number one priority!
About: My first two rescues were Rottweilers my third and only child is the child that my mom blessed me with. She is a needy, loving girl but high energy so I’ve dealt with everything from couch potato to high Strong lovely I work from home and my height energy baby is used to go out multiple times a day and she is great with any dog she needs. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I am very active walking them in the neighborhood and we will always make time to go out. We are sidekick and we go walking together, dog parks together, but also she has not ever met a dog that she doesn’t love. Even those in the neighborhood that don’t get along with others love her. I do not have kids, but my nieces who are 5 to 9 or around her often so she is great with them, but I also understand those that don’t want their dog around kids so I will not bring them around them if they are uncomfortable.
“Chynna did a great job with my 4 month old puppy for daycare! She was very responsive, sent great pictures, and my pup had the best time romping around for four hours with Chynna's two resident dogs. I would definitely book again!”

About: 30 years of experience raising, sitting, and living with dogs and cats in all phases of their lives. My husband and I had our own two dogs for 14 years and are excited to be “aunts and uncles” to others’ pets until we get our own again. I currently work remotely and am very active during the day. Hoping to add a furry friend to the mix so I don’t have to walk alone. Can also pay home visits to care for them as you need. I will respect your home as if it were my own, adhering to any specific security, sanitization, and pet-specific requirements. Your home will be left exactly as I found it.

“My partner and I both got sick at the same time and Laura was nice enough to take our puppy for walks on very short notice. She always showed up on time and Momo would wait impatiently for her at the door. Her joy at seeing Laura spoke volumes. Thank you!! Would definitely recommend.”
“Nathan has been walking my dog, Obi, consistently 3 days per week for two weeks and has done a great job! He was patient with my initially skeptical dog and Obi has come to trust him and enjoys their walks! I recommend Nathan's services if you are looking for a dog walker or other support with your dog.”
