“Elizabeth is great. She took care of our cat and fish while we were away for a family thing. She provided pictures and documentation and we greatly appreciate it. We will definitely try to use her services again!”
“What an absolute dream. Sydney took excellent care of my girls, and handled my asthmatic cat’s inhaler with ease. I will absolutely ask her to babysit again in the future.”
About: Hi! I’m a reliable, dog-loving sitter who treats every pup like family—while also keeping routines, safety, and comfort a top priority. I’ve been caring for dogs for several years and have experience with all ages and energy levels, from playful puppies to laid-back seniors. I understand that every dog is different, so I take time to learn your dog’s routine, preferences, and quirks to help them feel secure and relaxed while you’re away. I currently live with my two well-socialized dogs, who are calm, friendly, and used to having canine guests. Your dog will never be left alone or ignored—I’m attentive, patient, and happy to match their energy whether that means playtime, walks, or quiet companionship. I live in a house with a yard where dogs can safely play or relax. I’m also happy to follow any leash, feeding, or medication instructions exactly as requested. I offer flexible drop-off and pick-up times and provide regular updates so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your dog is in good hands. 🐾 I only care for dogs (no cats). 📩 Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care fits into my routine easily-I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can provide plenty of attention, playtime, and outdoor breaks. I can check in on your pup several times a day, or I’d be happy to care for them in my home. I also offer early morning and evening availability to accommodate pet parents with long work hours. I have two sweet Greyhounds to play with & keep your baby company. I love to cuddle on the couch or bed with the dogs. I’ll do whatever I can to make sure your pup is comfortable and safe.
“Maisie is so great, I really appreciate how communicative she is and her patience with Porcini. She takes the cutest daily pictures and is in touch for every drop in, even if there’s nothing unusual. Hoping to continue to book her for future trips!”
“Rachel did a great job watching our three fur babies which can sometimes be a handful. She kept us posted and updated every day and every visit. We loved receiving the photos of our fur babies.”
“Fantastic care for our dog! Brianna went above and beyond for us when we went out of town over the holiday! She was very accommodating and kept us informed of evetything. We would definitely recommend her for anyone!”
“Our sweet crazy girl loved Teresa. She even squeezed us in last minute when she already has another doggie to take care of. She was kind, punctual and spent quality time passing with our girl. Thank you!!!”
About: In my house hold we have owned many pets of all shapes and sizes. I have always been surrounded with pets and love each and everyone.

I have a job working in the morning for 4-5 hours then a 2-3 hour break then more work for 4 hours then I am off during the week and on the weekend I free so I have plenty of time to let dogs out on my break and be with them for a little before going back to work. I have been babysitting for many years but really wanted to start pet sitting as I love animals and love getting to know different breeds as they all have such interesting personality’s (I’ve always wanted to meet a cat that loves water)

I am a senior in college, and my classes are only Tuesday/Thursdays. The other 5 days a week I love to spend making new animal friends! When dropping in to hang out with your pet their water will always be refilled, food/treats/meds given on time, and will make sure that they get all the rubs and scratches. My first priority is their comfort!

If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about dogs and goes above and beyond, I wholeheartedly recommend Brianna. We had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. The communication was excellent, and every interaction was kind, professional, and thoughtful. We couldn’t be happier and will definitely be returning. Thank you for treating our dogs like family!
Jennifer does a wonderful job! Our dog had gotten a limp the night before and we had to leave early the next day but I felt very comfortable that Jen would keep us posted on things and she did. We really appreciate her care for Charlie. Will always recommend her. 😊

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
