“Madison is wonderful. It was easy to communicate with her. She was quick to respond to any questions I had. I felt totally comfortable leaving Speck with her. She sent photos and videos regularly. He had had a really fun time. I would highly recommend and plan to hire her again.”
“Rachel was wonderful taking care Papi. She was very communicative and treated papi very well. He became attached to her children which was typical of Papi. I definitely recommend her as a sitter and will be looking to have her take him again.”
“Laura was great. She kept us informed with text messages and photos. It was the first time we were separated from our dog. Laura alleviated all our fears. We’ll definitely use her again!”
“Josie took this booking REALLY last minute (like 6 am day of) after we got delayed flying home. She stopped in before she went to work and made sure everyone had food and was okay. Her flexibility to fit this into her schedule was wonderful and helped us out so much. We love her taking care of our cats and the cats love her even more!”
“We were so nervous to leave our brand new puppy with anyone as we traveled out of town but Christina was just what we needed! Our puppy ttol to her right away and we knew he was safe for the week with her. She took great care of him and gave us multiple updates, with pictures, throughout each day! We will definitely use her services in the future!”
“This was my first time using Rover and a dog sitter and it could not have gone better. Jane was excellent and sent me daily updates and photos. I had always used the bougie dog boarding places previously and my puppers would always come home stressed. This time, with Jane, it was completely different. They were stress free and relaxed. I would absolutely request dog sitting from Jane again. Thanks so much!!”

My dogs loved her, and I do too From now on, Tessa will be my primary Sitter.”
About: I have had dogs and various pets in my household since I was born and adore any animal. I am experienced in caring for puppies, senior dogs, and both large and small breeds.

About: Though I have never had a cat of my own, I have taken care of several friends’ cats when they have been out of town since I was in middle school. I understand that some cats need special care and am always ready to provide that, especially since I am hoping to go to vet school and am always interested in learning how to keep our animals healthy.

About: I’ve been recommended to many by word of mouth, so I decided to bring my business to Rover as well! There’s nothing I love more than being able to provide comfort for your pets whenever you’re away. Me and your pets will go on walks, play dates, and anything else they enjoy! Be prepared for lots of photos of us enjoying our days together! I am working part time while in graduate school. Ideally, I am available for overnight stays, whether it be for the weekend or two weeks! I also have sitter backups for any extra care needed in which I’m not able to tend to. I’m currently in graduate school at Morehead State in Ky and will be commuting twice weekly until May. I haven’t dog sat in my own home before because I have 2 dogs and a pig of my own. Caring for your home and pets is what is most important to me! I will always be easy to reach, whether it be by phone, text, or FaceTime! I will also water your plants, pick up your mail, take out the trash, etc.
“Andrea was very diligent in giving me a daily report of how Waffles was doing and sending photos of her being adorable. Waffles seemed to really like and trust her. Andrea even gave my newly planted raspberry plants some care out of the kindness of her heart. I can highly recommend her to anyone considering her as a pet-sitter.”
About: I’ve taken care of almost every animal imaginable, growing up we had three dogs, a cat, two birds, chickens, fish, a mini pig, you name it! I come from a very animal loving household. I’m also a zoo science major so I’m sure to take good care of your baby! I have a dog and two fish of my own, my Shorkies name is Clementine and my two fish are Thorfin and Goob. I’m currently an online student, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be home and available with your pets throughout the day. I’m available most days and can be flexible with walks, drop-ins, and pet-sitting needs. The only time I’m unavailable is Wednesdays from 2:00–3:30 PM due to a class. Back at my house we have a fenced area for our dogs to run around in but I’ve also crate trained dogs as well. At college my Clementine is crate trained and I take her for walks daily & often.
About: I used to be a kennel technician who walked dogs, practiced training, while offering playtime for them and cleaning up their space. I’ve always loved caring for animals and wildlife and want to branch out on my own. I have a very flexible schedule right now, all that’s needed is to message me and see how our availabilities line up! I integrate your pets life into mine. I have a variety of treats and food on hand, but will follow whatever diet your dog needs. I also have the time for high energy dogs or dogs that need training through e-collars or etc. I also own lots of toys and a large crate, or litter box if need be. If you have any more specific questions please ask!
About: Cats have always held a special place in my heart, and I understand that every cat has its own unique personality and routine. Whether they're playful, independent, shy, or affectionate, I believe in letting cats set the pace while providing patient, compassionate care. My background in animal care—including professional dog grooming, horse care, and previous veterinary experience—has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, health, and handling. I know how important it is to pay attention to the little details, from eating and litter box habits to changes in behavior that could indicate something isn't quite right. I'll make sure your cat receives plenty of attention, playtime, enrichment, fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and lots of love while you're away. If your cat prefers quiet companionship over constant interaction, I'm just as happy to sit nearby and let them come to me on their own terms. My goal is to keep your cat's routine as normal and stress-free as possible, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they're safe, comfortable, and cared for like family.
About: I am a dog whisperer. They love me, I love them. I can make your cat or dog come out of their shell! I genuinely love taking care of other’s animals like they’re one of my own. I am a Division 1 College athlete. That being said, I have my schedule for the month and I am very willing to work tedious hours for your pet. I will treat your home with the upmost respect. I will consider where the best places to walk your dog would be. I will locate and clean the cat’s litter box consistently. Your animal will always have water! And food of course!
“Skye is absolutely the best in-home pet sitter we have ever used to care for our two Ragdolls. Her communication throughout our absence is excellent, with frequent updates and photos. The cats are both happy and healthy when we return home and the house is just as clean as when we left. We highly recommend Skye's wonderful service.”
“Allysha did a fantastic job taking care of our kitties while we were away. Her photos were absolutely phenomenal, her detailed descriptions were incredible, and I have never seen our kitties so content and happy when we returned home. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter, thank you Allysha!!!”

“Christina was wonderful with Asher. He is so nervous around new people and he was snuggling with her in no time. She’ took wonderful care of him and updated with pictures. Could not be more thankful.”
About: As a lifelong dog owner, caring for pups is second nature to me. I know exactly how important peace of mind is when leaving your pet, which is why I prioritize clear communication, frequent updates, and plenty of personalized attention. From daily walks and interactive playtime to cozy cuddle sessions, I tailor my care to match your dog's specific personality and energy level. I look forward to treating your beloved pet like a member of my own family. I currently stay at Home so I am available any time of the day. This allows me to easily accommodate custom feeding, walking, and medication schedules. I have a small yard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. My yard is not fenced, so I always take guests on guided walks and trips to the local park for secure, energetic exercise. My pet is a miniature poodle who loves to play and cuddle. For bedtime, guests can sleep comfortably right in my bedroom or use a dedicated spare room depending on their routine.
