“Kaylan was a delight and Tibby responded to her very well. She was prompt and took good care with meds, food, walking and keeping my senior fragile pup safe and clean. Thanks Kaylan!”
“Cheryl is fantastic. I felt at ease about my dogs with her the entire visit. She was communicative, sent lots of photos, and my dogs clearly enjoy being around her! I am thankful that I found her.”
“Sarah was communicative and kind. She met with us before our trip to see our home and meet our dog, and clearly gave her lots of love while we were gone. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Lauren is absolutely amazing!! My dog and us love her dearly! She’s sweet, communicative, flexible, and most of all amazing with our princess!! We will always use Lauren every chance we get and so should you!!”
“I will definitely book Andressa again. We chose a sitter at the very last moment before we left out of town and she was very accommodating. She made us feel at ease with updates and pictures of our doggies at play and rest. Thank you very much Andressa for taking care of our babies and being such a great person overall.”
“Excellent work ethics and attitude. Very attentive to the pets and details. I would gladly hire Sofia again to dog / house sit. Sofia goes over and aboard what’s required snd communicated well with us.. she was able to handle our 3 dogs and cat very well and they love her— i can tell. I highly recommend her.”
“Abigail was a caring and considerate dog and house sitter. She made sure my Siberian Husky puppy was with someone caring and played active games while I was away. The house was in great shape and well cared for. Abigail sent at least two daily photos of Kenai so I could be re-assured she was doing well and maintain our connection of puppy and owner. She was very proactive about text updates / replies and communication so that I stayed well informed and comfortable during a busy business trip. I'd recommend Abigail!”
“Ann was absolutely incredible! Our English Bulldogs can be a bit high-maintenance, but she took exceptional care of them. She stayed in constant communication while we were away, sending daily updates, photos, and videos. Seeing how much fun they were having made it so much easier for us to relax on our trip. She even went above and beyond by helping prepare our home for the winter storm that hit while we were gone. Ann was truly a blessing, and our boys already can't wait to see her again 😊”
“Hannah was amazing house sitting for us! She followed all of our instructions. I have a very old Chihuahua and she kept a close eye and did all her specific arrangements. She also took our bigger Pitbull out to play and walk outside so he could get some energy out. She left everything pristine at our home. There was a mishap with our apartment complex's parking and she handled it so graciously and understanding; I was very grateful for her patience and initiative in getting it sorted out while we were so far away.”
“Claudia was great with our 2 larger dogs while we were away for the weekend- they loved her immediately. She was very communicative and sent text and pictures every time she stopped by to let out/feed the dogs. Thankful we were able to have her!”

“Yvette did a great job. We have an aggressive dog so our situation isn’t the easiest for most sitters but she kept everyone safe and our home clean. We would highly recommend her.”

Watauga pet parents share their Rover experiences
Susan was a wonderful sitter! She was very communicative and most importantly very sweet to my dog and respectful of our home. It was such a relief to know our home and pets were well cared for while we were away. Thank you so much, Susan - we appreciate you.
Alicia was awesome! She showed up to our meet and greet incredibly prepared, and I knew immediately I could trust her. She sent a ton of photos the whole time I was gone and the house was in great shape when I got home. Definitely would recommend and will book with her again for sure.
We had an amazing experience with our sitter, Mariia! She took incredible care of our five dogs—Leo, Luna, Mika, Azul, and Arya. Handling five dogs is no easy task, but she was so patient, attentive, and truly caring with each one. We received amazing, daily, and detailed updates, which made us feel completely at ease knowing our babies were safe and loved. We came home to happy, relaxed fur babies, which says everything. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend sweet Mariia to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter.
Sherice is FANTASTIC! I was able to go on vacation and not worry about my pets which is a first for me. She was reliable, flexible, and incredibly responsive. She took our dog on adventures every day, and thoroughly entertained our kitten! She even took the dog to see Santa during the holiday season. I cannot recommend her highly enough!
Lauren watched Molly for a week and she was wonderful! Molly was so relaxed when we got home and it was a blessing not to have to break her routine. Lauren walked and played with Molly every day. She is kind and thoughtful. We loved having her in our home and will definitely use her again! I recommend Lauren 100 percent.
Emma is amazing! I have two high-energy Border Collies, and she handled them like a pro. From the start, Emma was communicative, kind, and clearly experienced with energetic dogs. Throughout the stay, I received frequent updates and tons of adorable pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. I never once felt worried — I knew my dogs were in excellent hands. We came home to happy, well-exercised, and clearly loved dogs. I highly recommend Emma to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and caring sitter!
Kelsey was a great fit to stay with our senior dog Pennie. She was attentive to all of her needs and took great care of her. We were provided with daily updates and pictures of a very happy dog. Our trip was stress free as we knew Pennie was in great hands. Kelsey was very respectful of our home and it was very tidy when we got back. We would definitely have Kelsey back to watch our sweet Pennie.
Rumi and Sona had such a wonderful time with Deeyana! From the very beginning, communication was easy and reassuring. We received regular updates and photos, which made us feel at ease knowing our pups were happy and cared for. Both dogs immediately warmed up, and it was clear they were given lots of love, attention, and playtime. We especially appreciated the patience and care shown to make sure Rumi and Sona felt comfortable in their own routine. We’re so grateful to have found such a trustworthy sitter and will definitely be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone reliable who truly cares about your pets.
