“Yolanda took such incredible care of my dogs, Bailey and Jinx. From the updates, to the photos, and just making sure they were comfortable and happy, every detail was perfect. It is clear that Yolanda is the best and goes above and beyond to make each pet feel at home. I had complete peace of mind knowing my dogs were in great hands and will definitely use her services again—highly recommend!”
“Angel and Little Man always have a great time. Easy scheduling, great response times, and my pups are exhausted from playing when they get home. Thanks !”
“Julia and Colin were great! They communicated well and even met Toast before boarding! We received a lot of pictures where our dog was smiling and having a good time with them. We will definitely book again!”
“Angela was great, our Penny had a lovely time and came home tired and happy. Angela was great with communication and pictures and very flexible about pick up and drop off. I would definitely bring our Penny back.”
“Kim was amazing with Millie! Millie stayed with her for three nights, and Kim kept in touch and sent us pictures every day. It looked like Millie had a wonderful time and was very happy and comfortable with her. We had such a great experience and would definitely have Millie stay with Kim again!”
“Ashley and her family did an excellent job watching my two pups. Both seemed to be enjoying themselves while I was away. I got updates and pictures periodically so I was always in the know of what they were up to. Ashley was accommodating with time drop off and pick up. I appreciate the time and love you spent with my babies.”
“Scott was a wonderful sitter to our dog, Phoebe. Excellent communication, professional, and friendly. He sent us a few pics while we were away to let us know how she was doing, which I especially appreciated. Definitely recommend Scott, and his cute dog Lucy, to anyone looking for a sitter and a playmate.”
“Sherry was wonderful with Nukka! She provided updates regularly, gave Nukka lots of love and walks. When a slight health issue arose, Sherry immediately notified me so I was aware of what she was seeing. I was able to get Nukka into the vet the following day for treatment! Thanks for taking such good care of our girl!!”
“Angela was absolutely amazing! I received multiple pictures a day of my dog enjoying spending time with her pups and family. She was treated her as if she was a part of the family. In fact, when I went to pick her up she didn’t want to leave ha! I would most definitely book Angela again in a heart beat. -Allie”
“Gabriel was great, my poppy had a great time with him and his puppy Mel. Lots of playing and wrestling, and Gabriel was great about sending pictures/updates all weekend. 5 Stars!”
“MJ was great, my usually shy skittish dog immediately felt comfortable and started playing with the other dogs staying there. MJ clearly understands animals”
“Leaving our dog with Auria (overnight) was our first experience with Rover.com and it was great! She messaged us with photos and words of assurance that our dog was having a great time with her dogs and doing well. She also replied quickly to our messages before and during our dog’s stay with her. Thanks Auria!”
“Laura is a wonderful dog sitter! Our 18 month old pup stayed 3 weeks with her and her chocolate lab. This was her 2nd stay with them. She was well taken care of. My pup and her dog were inseparable! Laura provided daily updates and pictures of our pup enjoying her stay. She followed our requests for special care for her. We will definately use her for future sitting and highly recommend her T.o Weber”
“Sarah, Dan and their girls were amazing! Badger loves children and had a ball. They provided pictures during the stay which helped calm our nerves. We noticed he was exhausted when he got home which is a good sign. We would definitely use them again.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I could not be happier! Dawn and her husband were wonderful sitters. My dog, Jax, was obviously comfortable within minutes of walking in the house. Through out his stay Dawn would send pictures so I could see for myself how ‘chilled’ Jax was. I highly recommend Dawn and would definitely leave Jax in her care again.”
“Maria and Nayibe were wonderful. My dog did great there. They sent lots of updates, photos, and videos. My dog loved the fenced in backyard. Maria even let my dog sleep in her bed at night! It was perfect. I could relax an enjoy my time away knowing that my dog was receiving such good care.”

“Melissa was absolutely wonderful and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She took such great care of my cat for two days and made sure everything was handled with care and attention. It was clear that she genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make them feel comfortable and cared for. I really appreciated her reliability, kindness, and excellent communication throughout the stay. Coming home to a happy, well cared for cat was the best feeling. I would absolutely book with Melissa again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable pet sitter. Thank you, Melissa, for your outstanding care.”
“Tressa was friendly and pleasant to us (cats' Mom & Dad), and - best of all - was warmly greeted by our 2 cats beginning with her very first visit! She must have the VIBE. She was professional and prompt, and sent us reports about and pictures of our fur babies every day that we were away. We felt very comfortable leaving her in charge, and will gladly do so again.”
“They were so helpful and understanding of situations that came up. I'm also so thankful for them understanding how shy most of my cats are and allowed them to chill out of sight together.”
“Kim was such a pleasure to work with. We met prior to the booking and found out she lived within walking distance of us! It gave us peace of mind knowing she was so close and got along well with our kitties. She provided daily updates which was so fun to receive as we loved the pictures! We would recommend Kim to anyone and will book with her again!”
“Anya is the absolute best! She is communicative, responsible, and thoughtful. I was very comfortable having her in my home while I was away. She took excellent care of my cat and went above and beyond. Please book her - your pet will be in great hands!”

About: I have watched friends and neighbor's pets for years and decided to sign up with Rover. I love all animals. I have 1 dog and 1 cat, and they are family. I will walk, love and play with all pets staying with me and follow instructions given by their owners. I can watch puppies that are really like toddlers or older wiser members of your families. I am comfortable giving medications if needed. Most will sleep on my bed and yes, they are allowed on my furniture, but they are welcome to sleep or nap wherever they would like. I want you to go on vacation knowing they are happy and having a vacation of their own. I have a morning routine which includes a long walk, depending on temperature, playing in the yard with my dog and another walk usually late afternoon. Walks include walks around my neighborhood and also at parks. While your dog is in my care, I will not be going to any dog parks with them. I will have our dogs meet prior to accepting a job. They can play in my yard and once we are both comfortable with their meeting, we can schedule a time for drop off or pick up. While in my home they will be treated with love and respect. Walks and playtime throughout the day. They are allowed to sleep or hang out wherever they would like.
About: While I have more experience with dogs than cats I have owned my own cats and watched my friends cats before. I know just how much our fur babies mean to us and would be more than happy to make sure yours is safe while you're away!
About: I have taken care of cats of every age nearly my entire life. I currently have 3 long-haired cats with all very different personalities! I am knowledgeable in cat body language and how to respond to certain cues a cat is showing me. I am a big fan of using Fear Free tactics to gain the trust of any cat I interact with!
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 10. I have a golden retriever now and love all kinds of dogs. I grew up around dogs my whole life so I am very comfortable with them! I have 3 years of experience in dog walking as well as housesitting. I’m currently in college but my class schedule is light this semester and I am available the whole week. At home I have a golden retriever who I walk three times a day, morning, evening and night. At my house I have a fenced in backyard but I also like to take my dog for long walks as well. I am comfortable walking dogs long distances.
About: Hi! I’m Montse - mom of kitties Chamoy and Luka. I’ve had these cats for five years and was always a dog person until I had my own feline friends. My orange cat is exactly as you’d expect… rambunctious and incredibly cuddly. Luka the black cat however, is very stand-offish and loves her space. All that to say, I know that cats come with different personalities and I’d love to care for yours however is needed!
“Auria was a competent, caring, and thoughtful dog sitter. She sent us numerous pictures and detailed updates as to how Lily was doing. I would highly recommend her and have already booked another stay! We truly felt as though Lily was in excellent hands.”

“Kim is amazing! We always have her watch our dachshund Wendi whenever we go out of town or have an event to go to. She is so responsive and such a kind person! When she’s watching our dog, we know our dog is in great hands.Our dog always comes home happy and sleepy after hanging out with Kim and her dog! Thank you!!”
About: Hi there! We are lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience and two sweet pit bulls of my own. Our home is shared with my playful and loving 3-year-old boy and my silly, affectionate 1-year-old girl, who both love making new friends. We've spent many years in responsible dog breeding, which has given me a deep understanding of canine behavior, health, socialization, and individual needs. Whether your pup is shy, energetic, or somewhere in between, We are confident and comfortable caring for all personalities, ages, and breeds. With me, your pets will be treated like part of the family — plenty of love, attention, structure, and fun. I’m committed to creating a safe, positive environment where every dog feels at home. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! --- If you want, I can also tailor it to a specific service (boarding, drop-ins, walks, etc.) or adjust the tone to be more professional, playful, or concise. I offer flexible scheduling for pet boarding thanks to my role with a property management company, which allows me to be home often and adjust my availability as needed. This flexibility helps me give your pet plenty of attention, supervision, and consistent care throughout their stay. For everyone’s safety and comfort, we kindly require all pets to have their own crate during their stay. Crates provide a secure, familiar space for your dog to rest and relax, especially during downtime or when we briefly step out. Their safety and well-being are always our top priority. Also provide your pet with their favorite food/treats for their stay. We are also able to provide that for an additional fee.
“My dog Nala loves going to daycare with Dane. He is very flexible and does a great job taking care of Nala. She also really enjoys hanging out with his dogs and having a yard to hang out in for the day. Would recommend Dane 10/10.”
About: I’m a true animal lover. If it has paws, scales, fins, or whiskers, I’m already invested. I’ve cared for and fostered all kinds of pets over the years—dogs, cats, aquatic babies, reptiles, and the tiniest furry friends like bunnies and hamsters—so I’m comfortable across the board. To me, pets aren’t “just pets”…they’re family. My approach is calm, patient, and gentle. I pay close attention to each animal’s personality and respect their boundaries so they always feel safe, understood, and comfortable. At home, I’ve got my own little zoo—2 sweet cats, a bearded dragon, 2 geckos, 4 snakes, and an adorable mouse—so trust me, I’m no stranger to unique personalities and specialized care. I would love to care for your pet when you need a break, go on vacation or when you make other plans. You can be assured that your pet is in good hands. To offer the best care, my max capacity is currently 2 pets per day. 📍 Located in Milwaukee – Capitol Heights area 🌻 I work from home so I’ll always have time to play, feed and love on your pet babies. I’m always flexible with their needs (bathroom breaks, medication, shyness) to make sure they are always comfortable. If my schedule or availability changes, I always send out updates to my calendar right away. ❤️ To offer the best care, my max capacity is currently 2 pets per day. I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of space for pets to roam, play and toilet if needed. Pets are always welcome to bring their own items. My 2 lovely cats are usually shy and more of the watching type, so they won’t bother your pets but will surely admire them from their cat trees. All activities and toileting are supervised. There is no smoking of any kind in my home or pet areas. There are some pictures of our living space in the photo collection on my Rover profile.
“Small had an amazing few days with Madison, Joseph and Knox! Went on walks and adventures, and was so well cared for. Came home exhausted every evening from a full day of playing with his new friends. Thank you!”
“Perseus and Dereck were great hosts to Spider. They took him in last minute. They provided photos during his short stay. I will definitely have them watch our dogs again. They deserve 10 stars!!”
“Having our dog stay with MJ has been a great experience! We recently adopted a dog with fairly severe separation anxiety, and I'm not sure how we would have made it through the first months without having someone like MJ to watch her during the day while we work on alone time training. He's always very communicative and flexible, and our dog just loves him. You couldn't ask for a better dog sitter!”
About: I helped raise my own two family dogs and ensured that they were always walked, bathed, fed, and happy. It's also a habit of mine to go take the extra step like wiping my dogs and make sure they are clean after they've been outside. I've also taken care of my neighbor's dogs alongside our own family dogs, so I have experience handling multiple pets at once. I work full-time, Monday through Friday, while working from home 2-3 days a week. I also go to workout classes in the evening. Normally, if working from home, I take the dogs out for a walk in the morning. On other days, I take them for a walk in the evening. I normally take pets out 3 times a day, once in the morning, afternoon, and night. I make sure the dogs have a dedicated spot for food and bed. I have both a park and a dog park, 5-10 minutes away from my apartment, which I can take the pets to for a walk or some dog play time. There are also multiple yard-like grass areas where the dogs are meant to do their business. If pets stay with me for longer than two weeks, I bathe them every other week.
About: I have been the go-to pet sitter for my large family & friends for years and just decided to see if anyone else would need the service. I have no pets or kids but I am a pet lover in a nice home with a big fenced in yard. I like hanging out with the pets like little buddies, getting some days of cuddles and then sending them home 😅. It’s the perfect way to get some fur baby time until I’m ready for my next dog or cat in the future. This is not a business for me, it’s something I have enjoyed doing for my family and friends, and if you want your beloved pet to be in a calm but fun, comfortable environment while you’re away, I can extend my service to you. I recently started doing home stays/drop ins for the pet sitting too and enjoyed it. I currently have a really flexible schedule with a lot of availability. I live with my dad that occasionally says hi if the dog or cat is friendly but mostly the house is big enough that they never cross paths. I have a fenced in yard and a big house with a lot of space that I can also section off by closing doors. I typically take the animals out several times a day, feed them, and let them roam around the house or snuggle with me. I like when pet owners bring a bed for their pets so I can make them their own space but they’re welcome to chill with me in whatever I’m doing. I’m youthful, active, and responsible. I have a naturally friendly, calm demeanor that animals and people respond well to. I have no pets right now but used to have a pit/black lab mix that I loved dearly so I love pits and other breeds with historically bad reputations. I frequently sit my aunt’s beagle mix who’s just a little old pup that sparked my interest for pet sitting cuz it was so fun to have visits from him. He and my old dog are in a bunch of my pics. With all animals I just try to make them comfortable and let them feel at home.
About: Hey there! I’m a new Rover sitter who truly enjoys being around dogs. I’m dependable, easygoing, and always focused on keeping dogs safe and comfortable. I’m happy to stick to your dog’s usual routine and I’ll keep you posted with updates and pictures. Your pup will get lots of attention, care, and love while you’re away! Currently, I am working in office on Tuesdays and Thursdays until about 230/3pm and work at home on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Weekends are very open and only tend to leave for short periods of time to run errands I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for them to run around and enjoy the outdoors, as well as one Corgi at home. I do live in a two story house with the primary bedroom upstairs. Depending on the preference, dogs are usually allowed to roam free whether I am home or not but I do have gates to keep them from going upstairs if necessary.
About: I focus on understanding dogs. I pay attention to the little things—how your dog is feeling, what motivates them, and what helps them feel safe, confident, and happy on every walk. I’m the kind of person who notices the subtle changes others miss. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, anxious, or simply loves to sniff every tree, I adapt each walk to what they need that day. My goal isn’t just exercise—it’s giving your dog an experience they genuinely enjoy while giving you complete peace of mind. I’d love to meet you and your dog. Send me a message—I’d be happy to answer questions or schedule a free meet-and-greet. I am currently available to book most days of the week as dog care is my passion. Please feel free to reach out to set up a meet and greet. I am currently available to take care of pets in client’s home. I am flexible with needs, dates, and times. Let me know how I can help 🙂
“Mickey loved his afternoon with Jessica! She took him for walks and made him feel at home. He was relaxed and happy when I picked him up. Jessica is such a kind soul, we feel extemely fortunate to have found her!”
“Erin is the best! So is her furry kid Woodson! She took my doggie in at the last minute on a snowy morning and he was so happy when we picked him up! She sent lots of updates the whole day, too! We will be asking her to watch King again??? THANK YOU ERIN!! We hit the jackpot finding you!”
“Michelle took care of my very shy basset and he had a great time. He warmed up to her immediately and I was confident that they would do well together for the day. She sent several pictures of what they were doing over the course of the day. I am very pleased with Michelle and will definitely use her again.”

“Jessica is great! On time every day and very communicative with any changes. She was understanding of any modifications we needed to make with days or times and our Mona looked forward to seeing her!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and love them so much that I decided to work at a Dog and Cat daycare and boarding facility. I’ve been working there for 3 years and have worked with all breeds and ages varying from puppies to seniors and love comforting them and making them happy while also making sure their parents know they are in good hands! I’m currently working part-time and my availability is flexible. I’m willing to make adjustments as long as I am notified at least 2-3 weeks in advance. Depending on the typical routine of the pet, I will follow it as close as possible to make them feel as comfortable as I can. I will keep them busy by going on walks or by playing with them, or if they have lower energy I’ll just make sure to give them extra attention.

About: Hello and welcome! We take care of/have taken care of all different kinds of pets. We have our own two dogs, as well as six cats. We have experience with multiple different breeds and types of animals, as well as being able to handle many at a time. (We have had up to 9 dogs in my care at one time!) I know how hard it is to leave your pet behind, which is why I will update you with pictures as much as you would like. I have a finished basement if your loved one would prefer to be separated, and also have many open rooms for them to choose from for slumber. The cats have a gated off cat room, only accessible to humans and kitties. The crew and I can't wait to meet you! (Or if you prefer the whole crew won't meet you :)). Dani is currently home full time. At this time Dani is home for almost the entire day, with occasional errands. You can request our schedule for any amount of time to confirm your loved one will be cared for properly and on time. We deep clean all items used after a pet stays, so that they are ready for the next pet to stay. We have extra blankets, beds, crates, bowls, and more. We keep our fishtanks neat and clean, as well as my home. My dogs are extremely friendly even with cats. My backyard is fenced in with access through a back door. When it's nice out we play outside with the dogs where they have access to a kiddie pool to play in the water. I have started to add more outdoor play equipment/toys.
About: I have had experience caring for many different kinds of animals throughout my life, such as dogs, horses, guinea pigs, and fish. I am comfortable and confident with walking, feeding, bathing, etc. I am a full-time grad student, and I also work a part-time job. My schedule is a little different each weekday, sometimes with breaks in the middle of the day. I am available all day on the weekends. I do not currently care for any pets in my home. I am not currently accepting jobs that require a pet to stay in my home.
“Genesis is always reliable and takes excellent care of my pup! She truly loves and cares for everyone’s pet that she takes care of. She’s so communicative and kind to both me and my dog Heidi! :)”
About: I started off taking care of small animals, but then became trained as a kennel attendant and enrichment specialist in my growing career in animal care. I wanted to offer more to my local community with the current skills I have, along with learn and grow with every pet and parent! I’m aware of how dogs communicate with each other with body language and have been trained to break apart a fight, even before a fight could start.
About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life and have years of hands on experience caring for my grandparents’ Shih Tzus. I am attentive, patient, and always prioritize each pet’s comfort and safety. I carefully follow all instructions provided by pet parents and make sure their routines are maintained exactly as requested. I am reliable, punctual, and committed to showing up when expected. Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to create a calm, loving, and trustworthy environment for them. I maintain a structured and dependable schedule, ensuring consistent arrival times and adherence to each pet’s routine without exception. Safety is my highest priority, and I remain attentive at all times to prevent risks during walks, feeding, or home care. I build trust through clear communication, reliability, and strict follow-through on owner instructions. I also focus on creating a calm, stable, and comfortable environment where pets feel secure, relaxed, and well cared for throughout my time with them.
About: I am a part time college student. I am going to school to get my ECE Degree. I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10 by volunteering at humane societies and having my own dogs. I also worked at a doggy daycares throughout Florida and Wisconsin. I love all dogs like they are my children. I would love to own my own rescue center but as of now I want to gain more experience with taking care of different breeds and just express my love of animals to the world. I hope that you choose me to be a temporary parent for your dog and that he or she is in perfect hands and will feel at home. Thank you. Hopefully we speak soon. I work third shift for Target and dog sit during the day. I make sure they are taken out three-four times and feed twice a day. I care for them like they are children. Go on walks, feed, cuddle. Run like crazy and crash from exhaustion. I also love getting to know the dogs personality.
About: For 5 years, I’ve cared for a foster cat I adopted, looked after 3 senior cats—including giving medication—and am experienced with home visits to feed and play. I’m looking to spend my days off walking and playing with pets! With an open schedule, I love taking frequent walks around town and would be thrilled to have a furry companion join me for some fun and exercise. I’m available most days of the week and ready to help your pet get moving! While I don’t offer pet sitting in my own home, I’m dedicated to respecting your pet’s routine and following your guidelines to provide the best care possible in your home.
“I’m so glad I found Jan on Rover! She is a great dog walker. When she came and met our puppy prior to her first walk I could tell she is a big dog lover. Her job is flexible so she is able to be flexible with coming over as well. Great at communicating about the walk/playtime. Our puppy had a stomach bug and she kindly cleaned up his accidents when she came over. I also overbooked her and unfortunately had to cancel a few walks. She was very nice about it. I will definitely be using her again! I can’t recommend her enough.”

About: As someone who grew up on a small farm, I have been around a variety of animals since birth. I have experience caring for a variety of species and am comfortable handling any animal. I have volunteered with local animal shelters for over a decade, so I also have extensive experience caring for pets with behavioral issues and medical needs. I am a part-time sitter who is providing pet care services in addition to my full-time work. However, as a professor at a local university, I have a very flexible daily schedule and can easily provide pet care during typical business hours. Additionally, I do not work in the summer, which increases my availability from mid-May to September. I am very intentional about the number of clients I take at a time to ensure that I can provide comprehensive care to booked clients. I believe open communication is most important to be able to provide safe and reliable care for your pets. During our meet and greet, I will ask many questions to ensure that I have a full picture of what caring for your pet requires and how to meet your expectations. As someone who uses a Rover sitter to care for my pets when I am away, I personally understand the trust that is needed to leave your pets in someone else's care. I strive to build trust with clients by showing up when I say I do and following all instructions provided to me. And, it is not just about building trust with you but also your pet! If your pet has any behavioral issues or quirks, it's important for me to know this so that I can ensure safety for your pet and myself. This will help me adjust my interactions with them so I can build trust with your pet and respect their boundaries. The more information I have, the better!
About: I have been taking care of animals since I can remember. Whether it was taking care of my own dog, or pet sitting for family friends, I have always loved working and caring for animals. I adore going on long walks with my own dog, and being able to help out others when they need their pets to be taken care of! I am confident in taking care of animals of any size, and will not hesitate to do my best to assure the pets the care they need. Currently, I am an incoming college student looking to save up for college. Right now I am living at home and am on summer break, so my schedule is always open! I’m available to take care of pets at any time of the day. I believe its important to build trust with the pet, and give them a place where they can feel safe. I try to listen and observe the behaviors of the pets, but also make sure that I am following the directions given to me by the owners. When meeting a new pet, I always approach them in a way that won’t scare them off, and furthermore when getting to know them, I try to comfort them and make sure that they feel confident around me. Its very important to me that the pet will not be afraid to go on walks with me, eat around me, or approach me during the time that I come to take care of them.
About: Hello! I come from a family of dog lovers currently with 20 doggies in just my imitated family plus close aunts/uncles and cousins. We have quite the hectic family holidays. I've had lots of dog sitting experience between all those pups as well as being on Rover for 9 years now. My favorite pup is my border collie/aussie mix, Piper. She’s a rescue, almost 8 years old and all energy all the time. She’s keeps me active and taught me how to keep dogs physically and mentally exercised. I’m super easy going, just let me know how I can help you and your furry friends! I work mostly from home but still make time to get some extra dog time in my day. I can do morning, some lunch, and evening check-ins/walks on weekends and Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Dogs will always be kept on leash unless in a secure, fenced in area with me. Every animals needs are different, I am happy to hear every details about your pet to know how to best care for them.
“I have been using these 2 for a couple of weeks with both Wag and now Rover. They have been great to my girl. They are helping her get the energy out in a safe way and even working on her focus in public. Much appreciated ?”
About: I have owned and watch dogs but also cats. I have a love for animals and I get very excited meeting new ones. It’s the best experience to me. I’m available anytime. I would be able to do last minute set ups. I’m sometimes away from home around 2-4 pm but that’s not often Everyone in the house loves animals, especially dogs. The most love is given like their our own. We get very excited and take them out for long walks. My dog has been around puppies before and he loves to be around other dogs.

“Yolanda took such incredible care of my dogs, Bailey and Jinx. From the updates, to the photos, and just making sure they were comfortable and happy, every detail was perfect. It is clear that Yolanda is the best and goes above and beyond to make each pet feel at home. I had complete peace of mind knowing my dogs were in great hands and will definitely use her services again—highly recommend!”
“Angel and Little Man always have a great time. Easy scheduling, great response times, and my pups are exhausted from playing when they get home. Thanks !”
“Angela was great, our Penny had a lovely time and came home tired and happy. Angela was great with communication and pictures and very flexible about pick up and drop off. I would definitely bring our Penny back.”
“Kim was amazing with Millie! Millie stayed with her for three nights, and Kim kept in touch and sent us pictures every day. It looked like Millie had a wonderful time and was very happy and comfortable with her. We had such a great experience and would definitely have Millie stay with Kim again!”
“Scott was a wonderful sitter to our dog, Phoebe. Excellent communication, professional, and friendly. He sent us a few pics while we were away to let us know how she was doing, which I especially appreciated. Definitely recommend Scott, and his cute dog Lucy, to anyone looking for a sitter and a playmate.”
“Sherry was wonderful with Nukka! She provided updates regularly, gave Nukka lots of love and walks. When a slight health issue arose, Sherry immediately notified me so I was aware of what she was seeing. I was able to get Nukka into the vet the following day for treatment! Thanks for taking such good care of our girl!!”
“MJ was great, my usually shy skittish dog immediately felt comfortable and started playing with the other dogs staying there. MJ clearly understands animals”
“Leaving our dog with Auria (overnight) was our first experience with Rover.com and it was great! She messaged us with photos and words of assurance that our dog was having a great time with her dogs and doing well. She also replied quickly to our messages before and during our dog’s stay with her. Thanks Auria!”
“Laura is a wonderful dog sitter! Our 18 month old pup stayed 3 weeks with her and her chocolate lab. This was her 2nd stay with them. She was well taken care of. My pup and her dog were inseparable! Laura provided daily updates and pictures of our pup enjoying her stay. She followed our requests for special care for her. We will definately use her for future sitting and highly recommend her T.o Weber”
“Sarah, Dan and their girls were amazing! Badger loves children and had a ball. They provided pictures during the stay which helped calm our nerves. We noticed he was exhausted when he got home which is a good sign. We would definitely use them again.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I could not be happier! Dawn and her husband were wonderful sitters. My dog, Jax, was obviously comfortable within minutes of walking in the house. Through out his stay Dawn would send pictures so I could see for myself how ‘chilled’ Jax was. I highly recommend Dawn and would definitely leave Jax in her care again.”
“Elizabeth is so friendly I immediately knew Spike was in good hands. Even better, her two boys are full of joy and were ready to pet and snuggle with my pup. When I came to pick Spike up, he looked ready to stay with his new friends!”
“Angie was amazing! My dog had so much fun that I’m pretty sure he didn’t want to come home! She sent great updates and pictures and treated Cosmo like her own. I definitely will be using her again!!”
“Would definitely recommend Amanda as a sitter! Easy communication, easy to book, I appreciated the couple check ins during my dog’s stay! My dog came back looking well taken care of, happy, and tired from her exercise! Will definitely be using Amanda again!”
“Michelle is the only person we trust (and love) to watch our dog, Stella! She is very attentive and has a natural connection with animals. Stella gets excited if we even mention going to her house or any of her dogs’ names. Highly recommend.”
