“Ashley went above and beyond to accommodate the needs of my dog who is timid with most people. She was kind, patient and communicative while I was traveling out of town.”

“Tania was so amazing with our doggie, she walked him twice a day (which he loved), he got to just lay down on the grass in our backyard most of the weekend. Tania would make sure he gets plenty of food and water and made sure he took his nightly meds. I will definitely book with Tania again and I highly recommend her. She also made sure to give our doggie lots of cuddles and affection. Also, this is our first time to use Rover.com for house sitting and dog sitting and it was great experience.”

About: Hi there! I’m Ronda, and along with my partner Brian, we make the perfect duo for all your pet sitting needs! We don’t have pets of our own, but we’re always surrounded by family dogs and pets, so we have plenty of animal love to go around! We have experience with pets of all ages and energy levels, so whether your furry friend is a playful puppy or a calm senior, we’ve got it covered. We live in an apartment with access to a large park and work from home, so your pet will enjoy frequent walks and lots of attention. Please note HouseSit and Boarding in a hotel/motel will not be accepted due to safety reasons. Thank you for understanding that safety for both parties is a priority! Thank you for considering us to be your pet’s sitter/walker! I currently work full time but I work from home so I’m available to keep on eye on your animal all day/night and provide lots of love My partner and I currently live in an apartment. It’s small but mighty. I do live near a park so I’m able to take your fur baby out frequently.
“Brittany is awesome. She takes such great care of our dogs. They are comfy, relaxed and well cared for. We feel so lucky to have found someone who cares about our dogs as much as we do. Brittany sits for our dogs in our home. She also treats our home with care. She is a great person and highly recommend her for your fur babies.”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have been sitting since I was a kid. I love animals but I especially love dogs - your fur baby and I will be best friends while you are away. I love going on walks and playing fetch, and generally just doing what I can to make sure your dog is well cared for. I have experience giving dogs medications, baths, etc. I have experience with 8 week old puppies as well as elderly dogs. I’m a graduate student with night class two nights a week, but otherwise I work from home. Making sure your pets get needed attention won’t be an issue for me! I only care for pets in the owners home, that way your fur baby stays where they are familiar and comfortable. I am very clean and tidy and will ensure that I clean up after myself while staying with your pet.
“Mary was great house sitting and watching my two high energy dogs (Aussies)! She did daily walks as well as playing in the back yard + was able to accommodate their special needs (prescription food for one and chewable meds for the other). I would absolutely recommend her as a dog walker or sitter as she loved my dogs a whole lot.”

About: I have been a passionate dog lover for as long as I can remember, and dogs have been a part of my life since childhood. Growing up with two dogs and caring for them sparked my lifelong dedication to their well-being. At just 10 years old, I turned my love for dogs into action by starting a dog-walking business, which quickly grew into a steady after-school job for six years. Through these experiences, I’ve learned that every dog is unique and perfect in its own way, and I strive to provide them with the highest level of attention, compassion, and professionalism. I’ve also found that dogs naturally gravitate toward me, making it easy to build trust and create positive experiences for them. Beyond my experience and deep love for animals, I am reliable, easy to reach, and offer a flexible schedule to accommodate your needs. Whether your pup needs a daily walk, extra playtime, or just a caring companion, I am here to ensure they receive the care and attention they deserve. Let’s make every walk the best part of your dog’s day! 🐾 Im currently a full-time student and athlete in college! I have a wonky schedule and was looking for specific time that is flexible with my schedule. I am a very active person and will normally jog with pets unless age or disabilities prevent this. I am always happy to accommodate; I have just found that higher intensity exercise makes for a happier furry friend!
“Look no further for a responsible, caring and phenomenal pet sitter. Anastasia took care of our home, German shepherd, cat, and fish while we were gone halfway around the world to Africa for over a week. She sent us pictures every day, ensuring our peace of mind so we could enjoy our travel. I cannot recommend her highly enough - she is the best you will ever find out there!!”
“Lauren took great care of my pets and my house was also well taken care of. Both my pets were tired and well loved when I got home which is always a relief! Lauren also does a good job of communicating and follows any care instructions very well. Will use her again!!”

“Ella was incredible. My boys could not have been better cared for, not even by me. She was so attentive to them, and she took great care of the house too. Will rebook anytime she is available.”

“Em took fantastic care of my dogs! Very attentive to detail and so communicative. Took awesome care of my dogs and my home for me, would 100% recommend and rebook in the future! Thank you Em”

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and have experience caring for my own pets as well as helping family and friends with theirs. I understand that every pet is unique and deserves patience, attention, and love. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾🩷 I currently do work but I am off for a while so I will be able to provide your pet with my full attention during the day. Your pets are allowed in my home. I will be able to take them on walks. I do not have a large yard to provide them with.
“JaNasia is incredibly kind, patient, and responsible. She was able to handle our small zoo without issue and was always responsive and easy to reach. Will definitely be reaching out to book with her again!”

“Kayla housesit for us with our dogs, and did an amazing job. We will definitely be using her again. Our dogs were clearly well taken care of, our home was just like we left it, and our dogs got plenty of outside time. Kayla definitely went above and beyond in their care.”


“Sharon was awesome throughout the whole process! She communicated great, gave me updates multiple times a day and took great care of my dog. I will definitely keep her in mind for future times that I travel.”

Chris was so great with our Bowie! This was his first time with him and he was able to meet him prior to our trip! Chris was extremely responsive and gave Bowie a wonderful experience! Was our first time working with him but it won’t be our last! Thank you Chris!

Mary was great house sitting and watching my two high energy dogs (Aussies)! She did daily walks as well as playing in the back yard + was able to accommodate their special needs (prescription food for one and chewable meds for the other). I would absolutely recommend her as a dog walker or sitter as she loved my dogs a whole lot.

Maya is fantastic - excellent communication, very reliable and most importantly, takes great care of my dogs. She really went above and beyond to work with one of my dogs who is nervous around new people. I highly recommend Maya and will definitely work with her again!

Jessica was great with our GoldenDoodle Sammy. We were going out of town for a week over Christmas. Our usual sitter had to cancel last minute and I was panicked! I contacted Rover and Jessica was available. He usually is wary of new people but he instantly loved her. She came and took him out and played with him in the back yard for an hour 4X a day! It was really cold outside so we were impressed by her dedication. She took lots of pics and they were amazing! She could go into professional photography. All in all we had a great experience and would love to use her again in the future.

Kayla was amazing! We have two spoiled pups — a goofy 1½-year-old golden and a quirky 8-year-old border collie mix — plus a senior cat. They can be a bit high-maintenance, and Kayla handled them all like a pro! Our dogs are used to having someone home most of the day, and Kayla was able to provide that. She made sure they got plenty of attention, love, and playtime. She sent daily photo updates so we could enjoy our vacation and not worry if they were being taken care of. We came home to happy, healthy pets and a spotless house. Highly recommend — our crew can’t wait to have her back! 🐾💛
Megan was absolutely wonderful. She took such good care of my dog, Lola. Lola gets separation anxiety. However, with Megan she was great. Megan sent daily pictures and updates on how Lola was doing. Which relieved a lot of my own anxiety. I felt so comfortable with Megan taking care of Lola. I highly recommend Megan to care of your pup(s).
