“Judy was amazing!! Very patient, detail oriented, and accommodating. I would book her again and recommend to other dog parents in a heartbeat! She even gave my pup Tux a bath and his coat was incredibly soft and fluffy!”
2. Rosa C.
“Rosa was absolutely fantastic! It’s always nerve racking when you leave your fur baby with a new sitter, but we had a wonderful experience with Rosa. She stayed in constant communication sending pics and videos, and even spoiled Rover with toys and special walks to the store. We will definitely use Rosa again and highly recommend her. She went above and beyond in every way, including pick up and drop off service.”

“I have had the pleasure of knowing Erika for over 15 years, and I can confidently say she is one of the most caring, reliable, and detail-oriented people I know—qualities that are essential for a pet caregiver. Her natural ability to connect with animals, combined with her strong sense of accountability, ensures that every pet in her care is safe, comfortable, and loved. Erika is someone I trust completely, as she consistently goes above and beyond to meet any need with thoughtfulness and care. Whether it’s following specific instructions, paying attention to the smallest details, or simply providing loving companionship, she does it all with dedication. Any pet parent would be fortunate to have her care for their furry family members.”

8. Alyssa T.
About: I’m new to Rover so for $20 off your first booking with me, use Promo Code: ALYSSG53359 Although I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to pet sitting! I had my first dog at 16 and have spent my life with multiple dogs! I have experience in dogs with tons of energy and also dogs who love to just chill and cuddle! I am lucky enough to have a flexible remote schedule during the week, and also live right by tons of walking trails! This gives me the ability to give a ton of attention to your fur baby, ensuring we go on walks, play with toys, cuddle, and of course nap! I have a super energetic and friendly Shihtzu named Treble and he just loves playing and running around, jumping on the couch, and going for walks. I will make sure I overly communicate and follow any instructions you need, as I know as a pet parent myself I worry anytime I’m not with him. So I make sure you’re comfortable and feel your baby is safe with me and feels like my home is theirs! I also make sure we can set up a meet and greet before your dogs first stay!
9. Richard G.
“Great! My dog was very happy there and Richard sent frequent pictures which were much appreciated. Will definitely look to have her stay there again!”
10. Lindsay M.
About: As someone who grew up with dogs and now has a 3-year-old Golden Retriever, I’ve always been passionate about caring for pets. I regularly help friends and family with dog-sitting and walking, and I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds and sizes. Working from home on Mondays and Fridays allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I watch, ensuring they get the care, attention, and companionship they deserve. We are constantly going on daily long walks and dog park visits with our friendly pup! I live in a spacious apartment with my husband and friendly dog. We go on multiple walks a day to make sure he gets plenty of his outdoor time!
11. Wendy Johanna B.
“Wendy took great care of my pups. She asked a lot of questions about their care and sent a lot of photos and updates during their stay. Will definitely reach out to her again the next time I need a dog sitter. Highly recommend.”
12. monika m.
“Monika provided exceptional doggy sitting services. She was quick to respond and kept me updated with plenty of pictures throughout the day. My doggy received lots of loving attention and seemed to follow her everywhere. She definitely has a special way with dogs. Highly recommend Monika for anyone looking for a caring and attentive pet sitter!”
13. Francisco M.
“Francisco helped me out in a last minute pinch to watch my dog. He was very responsive, attentive and overall great with my dog for the weekend! I would absolutely use him again.”
14. Yushin "Tina" P.
“Tina, seems to always have had dogs in her life, even a dog picture on her credit card. She is the only dog owner I've ever known to regularly floss her dogs and not just brush their teeth, prep great delicious healthy canine meals, play with them, and walk them regularly. She is passionate in her care of her furry friends and seems to know what her dog friends are telling her and great at addressing their needs and keeping their tails wagging. Tina will be a great addition to the Rover.com community. The world will be a better place because of her TLC. Jon”
15. Karine A.
“Karine was absolutely wonderful. We could tell our pup was expertly cared for during our time away. He had an amazing time with Karine, her husband and the other dogs. She was very consistent with updates, and made us feel at ease during the whole stay. We would recommend her to anyone 1000%”
16. Benan C.
“Goldie loved staying with Benan, Justin and Bella!! She was so comfortable with them. Benan updated me with pictures throughout her stay and Justin gave me a full report when I picked her up from a weekend stay. Cannot wait to bring Goldie back for a visit!”
17. Nandita K.
“Nandita was the best dog sitter we ever had. she sent us pictures and videos daily usually even more than once. She took the best care of our Bernese Mountain dog. She made sure to ask all of the questions and meet us before watching her for the week. We appreciate the detailed care she took to our girl. Knowing that she was safe, made it easy to relax on vacation.”
18. Karen T.
“Karen is an amazing caretaker for my two cats and dog! She is reliable, responsible, and great at communication. I’ve used her on several accounts to watch my pets when I’m running late for work or on vacation. She is splendid and my pets adore her! Highly recommend Karen and her services!”

20. Margaret B.
“Margaret was an amazing caretaker for our 6-month old puppy while we were away for four nights! From the very first interaction we had together—a detailed phone call reviewing all of our preferences and needs and approaches and philosophies—to frequent and detailed communication (with photos!) of how our dog's visit was going, we felt at every turn that we—and our pup—were in the absolute best of hands. Thank you, Margaret! We, and Fred, will be back =)”
