“Renata has been one of the best sitters ever! I was very nervous to leave my pup because he was just neutered (still had stitches) but Renata did such a great job of allowing him to safely play with other dogs. She was also very communicative and sent me lots of updates and photos throughout the day. I am looking forward to future bookings as I know my pup will be safe and have lots of fun!”


“Anastasia was very loving to my lil pup! She was super flexible with scheduling, especially because it’s hard for me to find a sitter who can do long hours. So I am very grateful for all her help. Communication was a breeze and she always sent pictures and updates. Thanks so much for a great stay, Momo will be back!!”


“I can’t speak highly enough about Chan and the care he had for our pup, Otis. Chan was extremely communicative prior to our first meeting and made us & Otis feel very comfortable. During Otis’ stay, Chan was great about sending us photos and updates and you could tell Otis was having a blast. It was great to see him getting along with Chan’s dog as well & he was wiped by the time I picked him up, which is exactly what we wanted! 10/10 would recommend Chan watching your pup.”



“My husband and I are so thankful to you because since we have found you, our life has become easier as we know that there is a loving, caring, responsible person to take care of our baby Luna. You are such a Blessing!!!”


“Haley took great care of Scout, my high-energy Aussie. She walked him, played with him, and sent home a happy, tired dog! Haley was easy to communicate with and I would be happy to use her again.”


“Jennifer was the best! She took amazing care of my doggie and was so easy to communicate with. My dog came home tired out from walks and so happy! Definitely recommend !”



About: I remember when Rover was new and had only a few sitters on the app. I'm actually one of those sitters. I love animals so much that I wanted to share my love for them to other people and their pets. Rover worked out perfectly for me and I'm still here after so many years. I've been surrounded by animals my entire life—from dogs and cats of all ages to birds, bunnies, geese, chickens, and even pigs. Caring for a wide variety of pets has given me not only deep experience but also a genuine passion for animal well-being. I’m also experienced in administering medical care, including insulin injections and IV drips, for pets with special health needs. Pet parents trust me to follow detailed care instructions with precision, and I pride myself on maintaining a reliable and consistent schedule. When flexibility is needed, I communicate clearly and proactively to ensure every pet’s routine stays on track. Your pets’ health, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority. I work full-time remotely, which allows me the flexibility to be present and attentive to your pet’s needs throughout the day. Whether it’s regular walks, timely meals, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m able to provide consistent care and affection. My schedule enables me to quickly respond to any changes or special instructions, ensuring your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well-cared for while you’re away. In my home, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment that’s clean, secure, and free of hazards. I carefully introduce new pets to the space and, if needed, to my own animals in a controlled and respectful way. I monitor all interactions closely to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and care as I would my own. I follow all provided instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, exercise routines, or household rules. I keep the environment consistent to help reduce stress for the pet and provide regular updates so pet parents feel confident and informed. Trust is built through transparency and reliability. I communicate clearly, stay attentive to each pet’s unique needs, and am always prepared for emergencies with contacts and care plans on hand.

About: I've been a professional dog walker/pet sitter for the past 15 years, and new to Rover! I take care of dogs and cats, and have a lot of satisfied customers, including the pets (they just can’t put it into words). Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness is always my top priority, so rest assured they’ll be well cared for. I'm a freelance writer in my spare time, with pet sitting being my main job. I take care of dogs in my home or your home for walks and/or drop-in visits, and cats in your home for drop-in visits. For day care or boarding, I live on the ground floor of a 4-unit house with a small fenced-in, shaded yard for the doggies to go potty and play in, and there’s plenty of room for zoomies! Yard time is always supervised by me (they’re never out there alone), and I also take them for walks in my tree-lined neighborhood. There are dog beds & comfortable couches they are welcome to plop on.

“Michelle has such a welcoming personality. Her family made me feel at ease with leaving YoYo. I didn’t have any concerns. She sent pictures & videos throughout the day. YoYo had a great time. Also, she was very accommodating with my late pick up time. I’ll definitely use her services again. Super thanks 😊”

About: Hi I’m a full time pet sitter. I have been petsitting for the past 8years. I have a lot of time to take the doggies out for walks multiple times a day. I also interact with them, by playing or doing basic commands with them. They are always allowed hop on the couch and join me to cuddle while watching a movie. It’s a cage free environment, unless you are training your baby or prefer for your pup to be in a cage certain times. They will feel right at home, in a comfort place where they are allowed to roam around freely and cuddle up on the couch or the human bed at night. We also reward them with extra belly rubs and delicious treats! I am a full time pet sitter. During the day I do have multiple walks I go out to. My partner Maggie is also home full time to care for the pups while I’m away. Dogs in my home have to be friendly with humans and other dogs. I am only taking small- medium size dogs. Unless I’ve cared for a more relax friendly bigger dog that I know won’t need much space.
