“Evie took good care of our pups in our home while we were on vacation for over a week. She was quick to adjust her schedule to accommodate our dogs needs and communicated regularly.”

“Mark was amazing from the day he came over to meet us and our dogs until we returned from vacation. He made sure our dogs were comfortable due to their age. He also Made sure the stayed very close to their daily routine. Mark sent pictures and videos to insure us that they were receiving the best care, and they were! We highly recommend Mark and will definitely use him again. Kevin T.”

“Where do I start?!?! Bobbie was ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!! Not only did I get daily updates. I came home at two a beautifully cleaned house and sweet gifts left for my children. My kids loved Bobbie just as much as my dogs did!! I have a very scared/reactive dog and Bobbie handled him with ease.

HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND BOBBIE FOR ANY OF YOUR PET NEEDS!!”

About: Hi! I’m Lily, and caring for animals is genuinely one of my favorite things in life. I’ve had pets my whole life and have also worked at a doggy daycare, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I own dogs myself—they’re very docile and love having friends—so I understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including anxious pups and dogs with special needs. One of my dogs is deaf and responds to sign, so I’m especially patient, attentive, and tuned in to nonverbal communication. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, structured walks, or just a calm and comforting presence, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, and updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely excited to meet your pets. I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve! My schedule is flexible and allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day. I currently work full-time, but I’m in the process of transitioning roles, which gives me increasing availability. My partner is home by 2:30 PM every day, and we’re both home in the evenings, so your pet will have plenty of supervision, attention, and company. We make sure pets are never left alone for long periods and always prioritize their comfort and routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific schedule and needs—just let me know what works best for them! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. We have a fully fenced-in backyard with turf, providing a clean and secure space for safe outdoor play and bathroom breaks. Inside, our home is pet-proofed to prevent access to anything unsafe, and we always supervise interactions to ensure a calm and controlled environment. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, secure, and well-managed environment at all times.
“Claire was AMAZING. She sent me constant updates and pictures, paid close attention to my dog’s health, and she did so many activities with my dog. He is very high energy and she was able to tire him out multiple days in a row and that’s pretty awesome. I can tell my dog really loves her. This was my longest trip away and my dog was more than well taken care of, thank you!!!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had a great experience with Katie! She was incredibly helpful and flexible, especially since we had to leave in a bit of a rush. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dog was being cared for while we were away. She followed our instructions, made sure our dog was comfortable, and kept everything running smoothly. Our Willow Mae seemed happy and well taken care of when we got back, which is the most important thing to us. We really appreciate her reliability and kindness, and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to watch their pet. We would definitely rebook with her. Thank you again for taking such good care of Willow!”

“Sadie was amazing dog sitter for my super anxious dog, Murphy. I was concerned about leaving her for the night. Sadie did an incredible job taking care of Murphy, sending me frequent updates and pictures. She made my evening/night go smoothly at ease. I would definitely recommend Sadie for dog sitting. She is incredible, reliable and very caring. I will hire her again whenever I need one in the future. Big kudos to Sadie!!!”

“Megan wonderfully with our older dog Fiona, she was very good with communicating with me when we were on our trip! We received pictures and videos so we could still see our old girl while we were away. When there was an issue she was quick to let us know and reassured us that Fiona was OK (my poor pup has a nervous belly).”

“This was my first time using a house sitter and Hannah was fantastic! She kept in contact with me and sent pictures of my fur babies. If I need a drop-in or house sitting again, I will be scheduling with her. 😊 Thank you, Hannah!”

West Gate pet parents share their Rover experiences
Victoria is an incredible animal care provider! I had friends in from out of town to celebrate my birthday and they have a new puppy with separation anxiety. In order for us to go out, we needed to find a sitter for several hours so my friends could enjoy the night and not stress. Victoria instantly was a hit with my two dogs and their puppy. She’s calm, kind, genuine, and has a ton of experience which made for a stress free evening. The dogs were regulated and felt right at home with her. Highly recommend her and her services. Thank you Victoria!

Ashlyn did an amazing job taking care of our 4 labs. She checked in and kept me updates on how things were going! Our house was exactly as we left it when we returned and the my pups were happy! I would recommend Ashlyn to care for your furry family members! I will definitely ask Ashlyn to come back!!!

Sheila was AMAZING, I can’t recommend her enough! I was nervous to leave Cricket for a trip and Sheila went above and beyond to make sure Cricket was taken care of and loved on! We will absolutely be rebooking and I can’t brag enough about how wonderful our experience was!
