“I can't recommend Stephanie highly enough! She recently watched our dog, Hazel, and she was truly wonderful from start to finish. From the moment we dropped Hazel off, Stephanie provided excellent and frequent updates, including photos and videos, which really put our minds at ease. It was clear that Hazel was having a great time and felt completely comfortable in her care. Stephanie was incredibly reliable, easy to communicate with, and genuinely treated Hazel like her own family. Hazel came home tired, happy, and clearly well-loved. If you're looking for a trustworthy, loving, and professional sitter on Rover, book Stephanie—we certainly will be booking her again!”

“Amanda was attentive and caring for our kitty family members. So glad she could help us out. We'll always hope to book with Amanda when we have to be away from home.”
“Heather was so great looking after our fur babies! We were gone for a week on a road trip, and the regular updates, including videos of our kitties playing helped me know they were all happy and healthy, and relieved any anxiety I had about being gone for so long. It was really great. Heather was also very on top of the litter boxes and trash, and very thoughtful and considerate. I would absolutely contact her again next time we are out of town.”
“Jen took a VERY last minute booking request from me and was super accommodating and quick to respond. My girl can be very hesitant of new people and she gave Jen some sass, but she was very patient and understanding with her. I appreciated her flexibility and kindness so much!!”

“Darby's updates were super informative while I was away, having information on how much food my cat ate and what they did during the visit. I was always glad to get photos of my cat enjoying herself in the update!”
“Cassandra was great with our little fur baby! She would give me updates on how much she has been eating and even stopped in a few extra times to check on her. And our old kitty is not an easy one to take care of. She requires several different medications and is finicky about how and when she chooses to take them. Thank you, Cassandra!”
“I knew Alyssa was going to be the perfect pet sitter for my two kitties when I first met her and she was super cuddly with my little gray boy. But when she sent not only photos but a video which featured my very nervous, very reclusive gray tuxedo girl my first impressions were confirmed! Alyssa was wonderful. I trusted her with my precious buddies and in my home and will definitely trust her in the future!”
“Keely was great. Good communication and took wonderful pics of my cats during her visits while making sure everything was in order. Couldn’t have gone any smoother.”

About: I’ve had cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and I’ve been helping care for them since I was 10 years old. From feeding and grooming to playtime and snuggles, caring for cats has always come naturally to me. I’m experienced with administering medications, including pills and topical treatments, and I understand the importance of gentle, stress-free handling. Whether your cat is playful or prefers quiet companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home.
“Sylvia was a fantastic cat sitter! She took care of our cat Rhubarb for 3 days, including giving her oral medication. I really appreciated Sylvia’s reports about how Rhu was doing and I could tell from the pictures that Rhu loved being with her! Sylvia gave Rhu lots of affection and play time. I highly recommend Sylvia as a drop in cat sitter and we hope to work with her next time we go out of town!”
“Kathryn did an amazing job caring for my grumpy old cat, Rumor. He doesn't usually like strangers, but she got him to play with toys and always spent time with him. I felt better knowing that she was checking in on him everyday!”
“Keezieng's assistance was a lifesaver this holiday season. His politeness and kindness when meeting us and our cat Olivia was reassuring and he did a great job of updating us during his visits while we were away. We’re so grateful for the excellent care provided!”

“Jieqi was very responsive and welcoming to us and our puppy. Luna was well cared for and we received a photo and update even for just a 4 hour stay. I highly recommend Jieqi and will be using her again.”
“We were lucky to have Cynthia as our dog sitter. Cynthia and her family were able to watch our dog Gary on short notice, which made us really happy. Right from the beginning, Cynthia communicated with us well and was very friendly and understanding. We felt comfortable leaving Gary with Cynthia. She sent regular updates with photos and wrote a lovely Rover card at the end, filled with pictures and lots of details. It was so thoughtful and sweet. We would definitely recommend her to others without hesitation. Cynthia is professional, kind, and genuinely loves dogs. Thank you for taking such great care of Gary and being an outstanding dog sitter!”
“Our 3 dogs love going to Kara’s. They run in the door and barely look back at us. We know they’re having a great time by the photos Kara sends us during their stay. She takes wonderful care of them.”
“Hi Elizabeth, I just wanted to say thank you for taking such great care of Fox! I really appreciated the updates while I was away. It’s clear you gave her lots of attention and care, and I could tell she was happy and comfortable with you. I’d absolutely trust you again and would happily recommend you to others. Thanks again!”
“I just can't say enough about how amazing Sarah and Zach are and how much it means to us to have our active social 1 1/2 year old lab in their care. They understand him, take care of him as one of their own and make it so easy to coordinate and communicate.”
“Ella was really sweet for helping me find a sitter last minute. Her communication before, during, and after was impeccable! It made me feel assured that Remy was in good hands while in her care. I highly recommend!”
About: I started pet sitting at age 12. I’m comfortable with all animals from exotic to barnyard (ex. Horses, pigs, bearded dragons, wolf-dogs, fox, skunks, parrots and ferrets). I have had my dog for seven years, and my senior cat for one year. I currently do Rover full-time! I am a busy bee- I’m also a student at Edgewood College and a new mom! I love taking regulars and new clients! My pets are crate trained and respect boundaries. I also have baby gates for separation. I do not require crate training but it is extremely helpful if your pet is, so please let me know!
“Emily took great care of our pup, Toby! He is 10 weeks old and she was capable of managing the extra needs of a young puppy. Emily was very communicative and responsive to messages. We would send our pup to be cared for by her again!”
“Thank you so much for taking such good care of Mace. We haven’t had a night out since we got him. So we were able to enjoy a soccer game without worry. Thank you Ben!!”
About: I work remotely and have a fenced in yard so I’m able to look after and hang out with your dog throughout the day. My dog, Milo, is a pup who is the chillest pup I’ve ever met but also loves to play with other dogs and say hi to strangers. I make an effort to make sure owners pets stick to their schedules and I enjoy the active time with them too. I work from home allowing me to watch over pets throughout the day and ensure they have enough outside time and whatever else they may need. I try to stick to owners house rules and routines. I’m an early bird allowing for morning time to get energy out and for pets to start their day with me.
“AJ (Julie) was so great!! My Rambo and her Duncan played all day each day of his 4 days in her care & AJ sent me the funniest, cutest photos of the two of them. She even takes them to the park! Rambo comes home absolutely exhausted each day which is pretty fantastic!”
About: I genuine care and give attention to every dog as if they were my own. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. I’m comfortable working with puppies who are still learning routines, including basic training and potty schedules, and I’m also gentle and mindful with senior dogs who may need slower walks, medication reminders, or extra comfort. My goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away. I currently work only 2 days out of the week, but my schedule is very flexible, and can switch days if need be! Will accommodate I care for pets by making sure they stay comfortable and follow the routine they’re used to. In a client’s home, I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention so pets feel safe while their owner is away. I also keep the home tidy and make sure pets stay on their normal schedule. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean environment with supervised play, regular potty breaks, exercise, and lots of affection. I always pay close attention to each pet’s needs, personality, and any special instructions from the owner to make sure they feel happy and cared for.
“Our 2 year old Norfolk Terrier Finn recently spent the day with Robert and had a fabulous time! Lots of walks for Finn and pictures sent to us during the day. I had great piece of mind knowing that Finn was well cared for by Robert, who is great with dogs (as well as people too)! I would have Finn stay with Robert again for sure!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages since I was a child! I grew up on a farm and have had Rottweilers, Pitbulls, cats, horses, and lots of animals of various sizes in between. I love all dogs and cats from chihuahuas to Great Danes and would love to care for your pet as well :) I currently work 3 days a week so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pet! I am available 4 days out of the week and will have those 4 days off to devote to your pet! I live right on the Katy Trail and walk there everyday. I have no pets of my own so there’s no need to worry about negative interactions. I am also willing to take your pets to any appointments they may have!
About: I grew up with all sorts of animals, from turtles to ferrets to horses and of course dogs! So when I get the opportunity to give any animal some attention, I jump on the occasion! I have a great deal of patience and a flexible work schedule which allows me to give more potty breaks and walks! I am a responsible individual- looking to help in any way I can, and if that includes giving a dog the essential needs, I am all for it! My dream is to be a foster furmom for animals needing homes. Currently I am a guardian of a beautiful Goldendoodle and a handsome long haired orange kitty- who get along very well. I would love to take care of your furfriend when you some help! I work full time from home and have a very flexible schedule where I can take all the walk/park/potty breaks! This works great especially living across the street from a dog park! Safety and trust are huge- I want to give you the peace of mind that your fur babies are safe and well taken care of!

About: I’m all of my friends and families first choice to watch their pets when they are out of town. I’ve looked after a variety of breeds of dogs and many cats as well.

I work full time but have a lot of flexibility to check on your pet throughout the day and have the opportunity to work remote as well I’ve never a met a pet that didn’t like me. I’m very good at reading dogs body langue and knowing what they need. Cats also like me and I’m good at reading their body language as well

About: Hi:) I am a dog lover and I have 7 years of experience of pet sitting. I am looking forward to take care of your dog and make sure your dog enjoys the time while you have to be away. Me and you dog will definitely have fun together:) I work part time remotely, so I am able to walk your dog as many times a day as needed. I will make sure your dog stays active enough and does not get bored while staying with me:) In my apartment complex I have a special fenced area where I can walk your dog. If you want, I can also use leash there
“So very happy with walks with Carley. She is solid, confident, relaxed and positive. I have a dog who can be challenging (reactive) and she is more than up to the task!”
About: What sets me apart is my dependable, loving care. I treat every dog like family, giving patient attention, walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of love. I work mornings in retail, finish later in the afternoon so I am free later in the day. I enjoy being active, but always plan my schedule around pets to ensure consistent, loving care. I adapt to each pets needs. I grew up with cats and dogs, and provide walks, cuddles, space if needed, plus updates, photos, and lots of love, care, and attention.
“Anna is always communicative, professional, punctual, respectful, and, most importantly, fantastic with my animals! Both my dog and cat have warmed up to her so much in the last few months and look forward to her visit every Friday.”
About: I am currently working from home, so I have ample availability. I have a large black lab with special needs, so I know what animal lovers do for their pets!! If your pet needs a little extra attention, I have what you need! I can walk up to three dogs at a time, and am willing to work with hard to handle animals if the fit is right. For overnight stays, your pet will have to get along with my sweet 6 year old lab, and she loves to make new friends. Know how hard it is to leave your pet in the hands of someone else, so I will make sure they are safe and happy when they are with me. Please let me know if you have questions!!!!
About: I've taken care of my friend's and neighbors dogs since 2018. I’m good with puppies as I raised 2 of mine since 12 weeks old. I am also familiar with puppy training since I go to them with mine. I do my best to accommodate to the dog and owner. I prefer small-medium size dogs (max 70lb) since my home is a size of an apartment haha and want a good amount of room for them to run around and play. Both of my dogs shed so I am open to other dogs who shed too I work at home to supervise my dogs and yours. We also go on 30 mins walks at least once a day (I can either walk all 3 of them or walk my dogs and your dog separately) Dogs will eat separately to prevent issues. Water bowl is usually shared and we haven’t had any issues with another dog sharing. We also take away toys to prevent issues. Most dogs here wrestle each other other. As for walks, I usually have my clients key if it’s a repeated booking. If it’s 1 booking, I would meet with you first and we can coordinate how we go about me entering your home.
About: I've taken care of pets since I was 13. Neighbors and family have relied on me to over night watch, feed, and walk their dogs. I'm currently in school but am available Monday -Thursday any time after 2pm, I am also available any time on the weekend from Friday through Sunday. I am very active and will play with and walk your pet. I am very punctional and will make sure your pet is cared for.
About: I will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your pet's stay so you can relax knowing they're well cared for. And I understand their unique needs and personalities. I work from home and part-time, so whatever works for both of us, I will be someone you can rely on. Looking forward to giving to and getting love from your pet! My love for animals will never go away! They will be most comfortable in their own environment and I will help them feel safe in that space.
“Oliver was great with our three dogs, and they warmed up to him right away! Thanks so much for the walks, Oliver :) We'd absolutely recommend Oliver and will reach out to him for any future pet care.”
About: I have been an animal lover all of my life; from dogs, to cats to rodents and turtles and more. I know that a well-trained pet requires attention and routine. I am proud to offer consistent potty breaks, playtime and walks to keep your best friend happy and healthy while you are away. I am more so available on the weekends (Friday-Sunday) but am willing to help with daily potty breaks, meal time and walks throughout the week. I have a pretty flexible schedule so if you do require overnights during that week, I am willing to accommodate. I look forward to helping you feel more secure in your decision to use a pet sitter over leaving them in a kennel. Your pet family will be welcomed as one of my own.
“Ernst is super friendly, responsive and knowledgeable. We have 70 lbs adolescent pup who has a lot of energy to give. Ernst is great at keeping our pup in line. I already notice an improvement in our pet’s loose leash walking!”
About: I have done petsitting (cats and dogs) for over 15 years. Usually for animals where I personally know the owners and have spent time with the animal to create a bond/relationship. I want to full disclose with new perspective pets parents: I have a full time, in-office job with the standard business hours, Monday through Friday. If that's not what you are looking for in a house sitter, I understand. If I had a pet of my own, I would ensure all their needs are met. As a petsitter, I would to ensure their animal's life doesn't change or I could make it better in some small way especially since their parent(s) is gone I stay at the animal's home to care for them so their life isn't different than what it usually is for them. Changing their environment can be quite shocking and stressful to them. I try not change their lifestyle too much while the parent is gone
