“This was the first time Tammy sat for us. She did a great job spoiling our girl Glady's! Tammy sent so many pictures and videos, we felt very comfortable and well informed. upon returning home, everything looked amazing! Clean and tidy, which was truly appreciated. We take Glady's with us on most trips, but when we can't, we have a trustworthy sitter. Thank you Tammy.”


“Brandon was a great house and dog sitter for the weekend. He was respectful and reliable. Communication was open and he was always quick to reply. Our dog can be male reactive as well but Brandon took his time and had patience when getting to know him. Absolutely would recommend and will use for his service again.”


“Allison was a wonderful house-sitter in every way! She was patient and skilled with our three pups. She followed all of our care instructions, sent frequent photos and updates, and asked questions as needed. We could tell that our pups quickly were comfortable with Allison, so we were able to enjoy our weekend away. We returned to happy dogs, and our house was as tidy and clean as when we left. We will definitely use Allison again!”


“Julie did a great job caring for our dogs! She sent lots of picture updates and was a quick communicator. Julie was able to be at our home with the dogs the majority of each day to keep them company. She gave them new toys and spent a lot of time with them playing outside!”


“Having Kari stay with our cat, Clancy, for 8 days while we were away was fantastic — and such a relief. Kari sent us daily pictures and videos of Clancy so we had a good sense of his contentment and well-being. Kari is so caring about animals and takes her responsibilities to them very seriously. She followed our specific instructions perfectly and we arrived home to a healthy, happy cat! I highly recommend Kari for any pet-sitting need you may have!”


“She was so good with my senior dog. She stayed in touch and gave me updates daily. First time I left my pet at home for a week with a caregiver. I truly felt my senior pup was in great hands. Thank you Ashley.”



“For our first time using rover we couldn’t have had a better experience with Susan! She loved on our 1-year old boxer and handled her crazy puppy behavior like a champ! She sent lots of pictures that my kids loved seeing!”


“First time Rover user and first time leaving our puppy home alone with someone for more than an hour or so. Deborah came with confidence and made us feel very much at ease. Took care of our puppy well and had no issues. Would highly recommend.”


“By far the best sitter we have ever had! We were in a pinch when we got scammed from another sitter, and we asked Meghan to watch our pups last minute for 9 days. She quickly accepted and came over the same day we contacted her. She was great with our home and our dogs…she sent daily updates, checked our mail, and even cleaned the house up a bit. Such a great sitter, we will always see if she is available first from now on! Thank you Meghan!!”


“Great human being who took great care of my dog and my home. She followed all instructions on meds, feeding and treats for my very spoiled old man of 13.I definitely recommend her.”


“I used Ashleigh for my first time using Rover, and I had THE BEST first experience! Traveling while having pets is tough. I'm such a nervous fur mom. Ashleigh made us feel at ease from the beginning to end! We recieved lots of pictures & videos, my kids & I were SO grateful for those!! We were able to relax on a 7 night trip knowing she was watching our pets in our home. Ashleigh went above and beyond. 100/10 Highly recommend !!!!”


About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong passion for animals, combined with hands-on experience in training puppies and providing special care for senior pets. I focus on creating a fun and nurturing environment, ensuring every fur baby feels safe and loved. Plus, I’ve got a knack for understanding their unique personalities and needs, which helps build trust and a strong bond! With my nursing schedule of only three 12-hour shifts a week, I have plenty of time to prioritize your pets! On my off days, I dedicate time to play, exercise, and bond with them, ensuring they get all the attention they deserve. I love incorporating pet care into my daily routine, whether it's taking them for walks or just some quality cuddle time. Your furry friends will definitely feel loved and well taken care of! I care for pets in my home by providing a safe and loving environment. I have a fenced-in backyard where they can play and explore with my two friendly furry friends. If needed, I also have a large crate for their comfort and security. There's definitely enough love to go around for all the animals under my roof! I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and snuggles, so they feel right at home.

“I have been a Rover Sitter for six years, and am always rather particular about finding someone for my dog Jonah and cat Woodrow. Jonah has had special needs the last couple years and needs extra love and attention when we go out of town. My regular sitters were unavailable and Savannah got back to me right away and met us the next day. Although she is new to Rover and doesn’t have a lot of reviews yet, don’t pass her up! She took great care of our boys, sent photos every day, and left the home still tidy from when we left it. I will absolutely book her again and refer her to my clients if I am unavailable!”


About: As a lifelong animal lover, I have several years of experience caring for dogs and cats. Whether it’s taking dogs on daily walks, playing fetch, or providing cuddles for cats, I take great pride in creating a comfortable and loving environment for every pet in my care. I understand the unique needs of each animal, from feeding and exercise routines to making sure they feel safe and entertained while their owners are away. My goal is to provide not just care, but companionship, ensuring your pets feel relaxed, happy, and loved. With a genuine passion for animals, I always go the extra mile to ensure your pets are well looked after, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. I’m currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pets! I am consistently available in the mornings and evenings, and often have time in the weekends. When you choose to work with me, I will come up with a care plan that works with both your schedule and mine! I love walks in the park, treats, playing, and cuddles. My care would incorporate all of your pet’s favorite things to ensure a great experience. Every pet is different, and I value learning the routines that make them feel most comfortable while you are away.

About: Hello! I have been in the dog industry for 2.5 years in a variety of businesses, including a service dog facility. I have 3 dogs of my own, two poodles and a borzoi, one of which is my service dog that I trained myself. I am well versed in dog body language and have worked with a variety of personalities. I can help you get the basics of training down with your pup! Pet care is something that is around me 24/7 with my own boys, and I am more than welcome to provide that for your dog! I can be at your house for many hours on end to spend company with your baby. If you have any special requirements, I'm more than happy to do my absolute best to fulfill those needs.

“Joy did an excellent job house sitting for our dog Manny! Manny is still a puppy and can be a lot to handle, but Joy was able to keep him on his best behavior. She was also an incredibly courteous guest - when we returned after four days the house was exactly the same as we left it. I highly recommend Joy, and we will definitely be using her in the future.”


About: I adore animals, I missed my callling in the vet world. I have always worked with training puppies and taking care of them for two years at a Pet store and worked under a veterinarian there. I have helped with treating various illnesses in dogs from kennel cough to hypoglycemic shock. I would treat anyone's babies as my own. I have had a bad experience with a pet sitter and vow to never let a parent feel anything but ease when they are away from their pet that is family! I work a remote job with flexible hours. I am thankful to be able to help others not worry about their fur babies when gone! My house has a large fenced in yard. I have two friendly dogs! I crate my dogs at night and when I leave but I would follow instructions on how to take care of your pet in my home or yours!
