“Amazing 2 weeks house, dog and cat sitting by Rachel. Incredibly communicative, sends LOTS of photos, and really understands how important her job is to care our babies and home. Exceptional care of everything and handled any and all unexpected circumstances with grace and grit. Would 100% recommend and use again!”

“Jonathan, and his doggie came to take care of Niko. Collarina is good with aggressive dogs. Niko understood she was gentle. It was a good experience for Niko. Jonathan is a caring and good with dogs.”

“Sejla went above and beyond to take great care of our pup for over a week! We received many pictures and wonderful, thoughtful updates. Our pup is slow to warm up to people, but Sejla worked with her and it's clear she has a new bestie. It's great peace of mind for us knowing our dog and house are well taken care of so we can enjoy our vacation. Thanks again Sejla!”

“Donna was amazing! We will definitely be having her as our go-to sitter as long as she’s free. Our timid cat came out and felt safe with her which was so exciting and our senior pup looked so happy! Would recommend Donna to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter”

“Ava was awesome! She took excellent care of my cat and dog for two weeks, and went above and beyond when my dog needed to go to the vet. She had great communication and sent a lot of cute photos. Being so far away on my trip was made easier knowing my pets were ok and enjoying hanging out with her. Highly recommend!”

About: Have been caring primarily for cats and some elder dogs since 2020. Friends, neighbors, and family know I am the go to person for all their pet sitting needs. Currently living at home with my parents and am available 7 days a week and for a wide variety of hours. Devoting my time caring for your pets. Very good at following your instructions for feeding, brushing, as well as litter box refresh and other "accident" clean up. I particularly enjoy the "Playful Activities" part of caring for your fur baby.
“Elizabeth was absolutely fantastic! She was prompt, attentive, and detail-oriented, quickly picking up on our cats’ unique personalities and making them feel comfortable right away. She followed all instructions exactly, provided thoughtful and witty updates that gave us real peace of mind, and communicated clearly throughout our trip. Not only did she care for our cats as if they were her own, but she also left our house spotless. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”

“We trust Scarlett with our dog Lola so much! She takes such great care of her, and sends detailed updates during her stay. Our home is always spotless when we return as well. We appreciate how great of a Rover Scarlett is!!”

“Sometimes he does it in the backyard. Before the walk. I’m really glad to hear he’s doing well. And having fun. I’ll be heading home and arriving around… I can’t remember, maybe around eight or 8:30 PM. But no worries whenever you have to takeoff. He’ll be fine. Thanks again! Talk to you soon.”

“I have asked Michelle to cat-sit my kitty twice now and she has been great! My cat has separation anxiety and not only is Michelle great at calming her down, she plays with her a lot. She does a great job of making sure the litter is scooped, water is filled, and food bowls full. She has also been very respectful of my home; she is very clean. I will be asking her to cat-sit my Nugget in the future.”

“As a first time rover user i was pretty hesitant to use the app, but Tiana has ensured that i use it more going forward. She is prompt, shares lots of pet pics while im away, and i think my cat ended up missing her when i got back”

“Chris was extremely helpful during a time of need for our dogs Sage and Huey! He was dedicated, professional, and took the best care of our two dogs. He even made an extra trip when asked and we are extremely grateful for his help. We would love to work with him again in the future! 10/10 highly recommended!”


About: You deserve complete peace of mind while away, and it should be a vacation for your pets, too. I work from home, have no pets of my own, and only take one client at a time, so your pet is guaranteed a calm environment and my 100% undivided attention. I am the go-to pet sitter for friends and family because I am highly reliable and observant. Having cared for dogs and cats since middle school, I’m deeply passionate about animal wellness. I excel at reading a pet's body language and noticing the small things, allowing me to quickly adapt to their needs and keep them completely comfortable in my home. Since I work from home, looking after a dog fits right into our day. I have plenty of time to hang out and play with your pup, and I am used to doing morning and evening walks, with fetch breaks throughout the workday. I always stick closely to whatever instructions you leave to make sure your dog stays on their usual routine and feels right at home. I mostly care for pets in our own home, where I have a secure, fenced yard and plenty of space inside for them to relax and get comfortable. Because I work from home, they get constant supervision and plenty of potty breaks. Every pet is different, so I am super flexible and always stick strictly to whatever routine, feeding schedule, or rules you have in place to make sure they feel right at home.
“We were so lucky to have been able to find Christy! We were in a bind and didn’t know if we were going to be able to take our trip. Christy happened to have Thanksgiving weekend free and came to our rescue to sit for four days at our house with our pup. Christy sent photos daily, communicated with us, and we came home to a super happy puppy and the space was left in great shape. Thank you Christy! We will call again!”

“Joy was absolutely wonderful with our dog! This was our first time having a dog sitter come to our home, and Joy made the experience so comfortable and stress-free. I could tell right away that Skye was treated with so much care and love. Joy kept us updated, took great care of her during walks, and was very attentive and thoughtful. We felt completely at ease knowing Skye was in such good hands. We will definitely be rebooking her in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter! 🥰🐾”

“I always reach out to Yumi first to see if she is available to care for Kento. She has looked after him multiple times and consistently gives me complete peace of mind. Yumi is prompt in her communication, punctual, clean, caring, and always transparent. She often goes the extra mile in ways I don’t even think to ask, which speaks to her conscientiousness and attention to detail. I trust her so fully that I sometimes realize I haven’t checked in as much as I normally would—because I know Kento is in excellent hands. The videos and photos she sends reassure me that Kento is not only being cared for, but truly understood. She pays close attention to his spirit and mood and communicates with him in a way that is both thoughtful and intuitive. Without hesitation, Yumi is my go-to sitter whenever she is available, and I highly recommend her to any family seeking someone reliable, caring, and genuinely invested in animals well-being.”

“Michelle is wonderful!!! She took care of both our pups while we were gone on a family vacation. She provided optimal care, snuggling with our babies and sent pics when out on walks!! She helped soothe my anxiety with prompt texts, I would absolutely recommend her again!!”

Kathy was an absolutely wonderful house and dog sitter! She gave Stetson so much love and attention, and it was clear from the daily updates and photos that he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. Knowing he was in such good hands gave us complete peace of mind. On top of taking exceptional care of Stetson, Kathy treated our home with incredible respect. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would wholeheartedly recommend Kathy to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and thoughtful house and pet sitter.

Rachel was simply fantastic! She is super prepared, professional and communicative and we felt very comfortable leaving our two pups in her capable hands. She also treated our house responsibly and left it perfectly clean. We already have her rebooked to sit our pups for two more upcoming trips and there will be many more to come hopefully! Thank you Rachel!
Mámoo was wonderful with our pups while we were away. It’s so nice coming back to a clean home with everything taken care of while gone. Mámoo kept me updated with pics and videos and status updates. Our pups were pampered and given lots of love. I’ll definitely hire Mámoo again in the future. Thank you so much for everything!

Ava was so amazing with our three pets. She stayed in our home to watch our dog and two cats. I had never left our dog with anyone except family, so I was nervous going in. Ava was so wonderful with all three animals, and sent frequent updates so I didn’t have to worry if they were okay. She handled our stubborn dog and picky senior cats with so much patience and flexibility. Our time away went so smoothly because of how wonderful she was. We couldn’t recommend her more and will be booking her again the next time we go out of town!

Emily is super friendly and did a wonderful job housesitting and taking care of our Dutch Shepherd Yaya who likes to go on long walks. She sent us several pictures of Yaya each day. The next time we travel, we will definitely look to see if Emily is available for a return engagement!

Jamie was an outstanding dog sitter! She stayed at our home for four days and took exceptional care of our dog, Linda. From the moment we left, we had complete peace of mind knowing Linda was in such caring and capable hands. Jamie was reliable, punctual, and kept us updated regularly with thoughtful messages and photos, which made us feel connected and reassured throughout our trip. When we returned, Linda was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Our home was also spotless—everything was clean, organized, and exactly as we had left it. We truly appreciated Jamie’s professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Jamie, for taking such wonderful care of Linda and our home!

Seva was amazing. This was the first time that we used Rover and had someone other than family take care of Chip. Chip is 17 years old and has anxiety when the family is not home. Seva took such good care of Chip and would send pictures and updates throughout her time with him. As we were off celebrating my daughter's wedding, it was great to know that Chip was well taken care of by Seva, who is very experienced with dogs especially older ones. It was one less thing for me to worry about. Thank you Seva!!

Hannah was a wonderful sitter! We booked her last minute and it worked out really well. She came to our home to take care of our cat and her kittens. She communicated very well every day, sent several photos, and followed the instructions we left her. Our cats loved her! What I appreciated was that she did a meet and greet beforehand. The cats were cared for well and we’d love to have her sit again in the future.

We’re very picky and particular dog parents and we’re very thrilled to find Ryan! He and his wife Maria make a good team and we’re relieved that they can cover each other especially since our dog needs meds in the middle of the day. Ryan was super communicative, and followed all of our Barney’s routines to precision! We highly recommend Ryan and Maria!

Kristina was fantastic with both our dog and cat! I would consider myself a cautious customer with a reasonably high level of expectation. Kristina exceeded my expectation for sure. I was able to relax on vacation because I knew both animals were well cared for and happy. Kristina spent quality time with both and was appropriately communicative. Our dog usually doesn’t eat much because he gets stressed but he ate well and enjoyed his time with his new friend. Our cat rarely appears with any guest, but for Kristina he came out of his room and was up for some pets and a chat. I would highly recommend Kristina for your dog/ cat sitting needs.
