Mark was our first experience with a pet sitter and we approved the experience. He and his family watched our dog Luke during 16 days, giving us updates about his behavior upon request and sent us pictures. It really felt like our dog was embraced by Mark and his family. We will use his services again and we will highly recommend Mark to our friends.

We had a wonderful experience with Kristen who watched out dog for 10 days. He got lots of love and went for walks and hikes. We appreciated all of the photos and updates! We know he will look forward to returning to his home away from home!

We were very nervous to leave our Zeus with someone we haven’t met before but Cassandra made us feel so at ease in her beautiful home. Zeus did so great and it was great that Cassandra sent updates and picture and video of our boy. Highly recommend!

Maria is AMAZING! This was our first time using rover and she made us and our dog feel super comfortable. She truly cares about the dogs she is taking care of and made the process of leaving our dog easy. She has the dogs on a routine and has a huge yard for them to play. Maria would also send pictures of our dog daily which was something I looked forward to. Overall very happy with my experience with Maria and will definitely use her services again!

Danielle and her husband were absolutely amazing while watching our little guy (Jaxson) for a quick getaway this week. We were given constant updates/pictures, and he clearly made himself right at home and was as comfortable as can be. Communication was prompt from the beginning and we were truly at ease while we were away that he was receiving more than adequate care. Jax became quick friends with their pets, and was moping around when we got home because he clearly misses them! Could not recommend enough!

About: I've owned dogs all my life and have dog sat in some capacity for family and friends for the last 10 years. I love dogs and treat each like my own. I'm reliable, flexible, and ready to work on short notice during summer. I'm willing to stay and house sit if my schedule permits. I love going for walks and hikes with pups and am not afraid to roll around on the floor for some playtime. I understand how important your pets are and will treat them as you would! I am willing to administer medicine if necessary and am flexible to other needs of your pet. Look forward to meeting you furry baby(ies)! I am a full time teacher. During the week I can let animals out early mornings and then am usually out of work by 3. My weekends are usually free. I will abide by house rules for your pet at home. If you use gates or electric collars please let me know. Happy to bring them on walks if needed.

We had a wonderful experience with Krystal while we were on vacation. She was incredibly attentive and caring, providing updates and photos that kept us at ease. Our dog was happy and healthy upon our return, and it was clear she had received plenty of love and attention. Highly recommend for any pet owner seeking peace of mind while traveling!

Lori is great with our cats. She doesn’t just stop by to feed them; she brushes them and plays with them too. She goes out of her way to make sure their routine is maintained as much as possible while we’re away and we greatly appreciate it.

About: I've always had a deep love for animals, I've cared for dogs of all breeds and ages, giving them attention and afection, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable and happy! I work from home part-time, so this easily allows me to look after and keep an eye on your pets, as well as attend to all their needs. In my home🐾 i have a very friendly Frenchie and he would love to having a friend to play, i provide a warm and safe environment where your dog can feel happy! I stick to their usual routine, feeding times, walks, playtime and rest. Pets have acces to cozzy sleeping spots, and supervised outdoor time. I always can send you photos and updates so you can feel connected while you're away.

I had such a great experience with Erin and her husband Jason. From the start, she was very communicative and caring. She offered to meet and greet in person and followed through on the agreed date and time. I truly appreciated being able to tour the home environment in which my dog would be staying in beforehand. Especially since this was my first time leaving my dog with a stranger for almost a week. The home environment was clean with a huge backyard area that my dog loved. During the stay, Erin sent me multiple picture updates daily. I felt at ease knowing my dog was okay and in good hands while I was away. They were attentive, welcoming, and treated my dog like their own. When I picked my dog up, I could tell she had been well cared for and was comfortable. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter!

Otter always looks forward to going to Stephanie's home! He romps and plays with the other dogs, and she takes fabulous care of him while I'm away. He gets to go on nature walks, relax in her bed, and play and be a dog! She sends frequent updates, and I'm always comforted by how happy Otter looks! I highly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking through Rover to take care of their pup!!!!

Bruce was fantastic with our doodle. Our 11 year old was anxious leaving her dog with someone we didn’t know, but said after our initial meet and greet she said that she trusted Bruce. We received multiple updates and pictures a day which made us happy she was having as good of a vacation as we were. Would definitely recommend to others!

Elizabeth took such amazing care of Cooper while I was on vacation. She was incredibly communicative and sent me updates with pictures and videos twice a day! I’m especially happy that he got to spend time hanging and socializing with Ohana and Chase. She is a superb person and she treated Cooper as though he was one of hers. He received the most love, attention, care and new experiences (he loves those chickens lol). I can’t recommend Elizabeth more! I will find an excuse to be back ;)!

Mark has been an excellent dog sitter for my dog, Milo. He is very flexible and responsive, which makes scheduling easy and stress-free. Most importantly, he treats Milo with a lot of care and attention, and I always feel confident that Milo is in good hands when he’s with him. I really appreciate the peace of mind he provides and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.
