“Caramel really enjoyed his stay with George the whole week! We received daily updates and pictures of Caramel and he seemed very happy and well taken care of. We usually worry leaving him because Caramel struggles with seizures, but we were impressed how well George handled it. He stayed up with Caramel at night during his epileptic episode and made sure he’s comfortable and promptly updated us. Now we know we can leave Caramel with George anytime!”

“Andrew was a great choice to care for Toby. We went on a two-week international adventure, where cell reception would be spotty. It was good to know that Toby would be with very responsible sitters, given that we could not be in touch all the time. Thank you for peace of mind.”

“Caroline took such great care of my dogs. I like the fact that they were able to socialize with other dogs that matched their energy levels (chill) and temperament. I also very much appreciated that she would send videos throughout the day, and respond to my requests. You can tell she really loves dogs and that dog really love her back!”

“Here’s a polished, upbeat review you can use: Daniel was fantastic with our little dog, Chewie! From the moment we met him, we felt confident that Chewie would be in great hands. We really appreciated that he only cares for one guest dog at a time, in addition to his own two small dogs. It created a calm, comfortable environment and gave Chewie plenty of individual attention. Daniel kept us updated throughout Chewie’s stay with frequent photos and excellent communication, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that Chewie was happy, well cared for, and treated like part of the family. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Daniel again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter!”

“They were very well cared for. Updates were provided twice a day, they offered more if we needed it. All questions I had up to and during the process were answered quickly. Our very anxious cats came home and immediately began being themselves and acting right as rain.”

“Katie kept us up to date on how Pumpkin was doing. Dog was relaxed and happy upon her return home and in all the pictures sent. Communication was great. We have another booking later this summer.”

About: Hi, I’m Sarah! I’m a lifelong animal lover and the proud dog mom of Bella Rose, my rescued miniature dachshund. Caring for Bella has taught me how important patience, consistency, and gentle attention are, especially with shy or nervous dogs. I treat every pet like I would want someone to treat Bella. I’m attentive to routines, feeding instructions, medications, comfort levels, and all the little details that help animals feel safe. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddling, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll adjust to what makes them happiest. I’m also an English student and writer, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet genuine, one-on-one attention. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m an online English student and writer, so my schedule is flexible and I spend most of my time at home. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I already plan my days around caring for my own dog, Bella, so making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved is a normal part of my everyday life. I follow each pet’s normal routine and all instructions provided by their owner, including feeding, walks, medications, and house rules. I keep pets supervised, double-check doors and leashes, and never leave them outside unattended. In my home, I introduce pets to Bella slowly and carefully, and I can give them separate spaces when needed. I keep my apartment calm, clean, and comfortable, with plenty of attention and rest time. I’ll also send regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Kayden is our regular dog sitter and is fantastic! Our Golden Retriever loves going to play with the other dogs and is always so excited to go. Kayden also provides regular updates and photos to let us know how our pup is doing. I definitely recommend.”

“Teresa was amazing! She took great care of my little guy! I felt very comfortable and you can tell she loves the animals she sits for and treats them like her own pups! She sent me a bunch of pics while I was away which reassured me he was well taken care for! Would 100% book again!”

“Dia was great with our pup, from the time we connected for a meet and greet we felt comfortable. Dia provided great communication and photos throughout our dog's stay. We certainly will entrust her with our fur baby again!”


“We had such a great first Rover experience with Shannon! She sent updates and pictures of our dog several times a day, and she was professional from start to finish. We’ll definitely call on her again when we need dog-sitting!”

“Mina is great - Huck always comes home tired and happy. She keeps us well informed with how Huck is doing and sends lots of pictures and videos. Would recommend her to family and friends!”

“My very fearful, skittish dog gets so happy about seeing Ariana! She has a great low key and affection demeanor with him. She keeps up his medications, schedule and he gets lots of cuddles. Yogi is a good with him too! We appreciate all the updates Ariana sends!”

“Lauren and Chris always go above and beyond for my dog. They are very kind and thoughtful and take the extra step to make her feel special when she stays with them. They are my #1 sitters, highly recommend.”

“Teresa and her family were great! Baguette hadn’t done well at regular doggy daycare so we tried Rover for the first time. They made Baguette feel right at home and helped her adjust. I greatly appreciated Teresa’s communicativeness and kindness. Thank you!”

“Katie and Kristen were great! They were extremely responsive and sent lots of pictures and updates. Our dog settled in quickly and was very comfortable with them.”

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
