“Jayd did a fantastic job taking care of my Nova! This was the first time I’ve been away from Nova since I adopted her a year ago, and she’d already had 3 other owners before me, so needless to say I was nervous about leaving her. But Jayd was so caring of Nova and did a fantastic job communicating with me, sending lots of pictures and updates, and it really put my mind at ease. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their pets! A million thumbs up!”


“Candace did an amazing job with our cats and sent me detailed updates and photos. she was also flexible with our schedule and changes made to the booking. Our cats are great after and the apartment was left clean and tidy. We will 100% be having Candace watch our pets again!”

“Haylie was so sweet and and kind caring for our dog. She kept us connected while we were away by sending pics and updates. She was great at communicating and a pleasure to work with.”

“Couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver for our fur babies. Great communication and thoughtfulness and was very respectful of our home. Kerry was very patient with our very cautious English mastiff. Will definitely be asking Kerry to come again.”

“We have never left our pets for this long before so we were a bit nervous beforehand. Everything went great! We returned home to happy, well cared for pets. Thank you!!!!!”

“This was my first time using Rover, so I was a bit nervous. After our meet and greet (we could have sat and talked for hours!) I had absolutely no worries going into it. Turns out Marci was the best! She was very communicative. My house was left spotless - she went the extra mile to strip the bed and put sheets in the laundry room, empty kitty litter and trash, and left everything neat and tidy. I feel my two cats were well cared for. I will definitely have Marci house/cat sit for us again. Thanks!”

“We would recommend Ashley to anyone needing a dog sitter! She did a fantastic job watching our senior dog and staying at our home. Ashley is very communicative. We didn't have to worry about our furry friend for a second. Thanks, Ashley!”
“Gabby and Tyger were so good to my fur babies while I was gone. Everything was in order when I arrived home and my girls were super excited. Gabby texted me updates throughout the weekend to keep me in the loop since it was her first time sitting for me. Which honestly, put me at ease. Thank you ladies❤️”

“Bailey was the sweetest thing and we were very grateful she could accommodate us through the weekend. She was very responsive every time we reached out via text and we appreciate her meeting us in advance to introduce the pups to her.”

“Elva was a great house/pet sitter for us! This is the first time we have ever needed one for our 12 year old dog and we couldn't be happier with the service she provided. I appreciated that she was willing to come before we left to meet us and learn our dog's current routines. I came back home to the house still being clean and a happy dog. I will definitely reach out to Elva again for any upcoming trips!”


“Caroline was great!! She took excellent care of my dogs! This was my first time with the house sitting service and I’m so glad it was with Caroline! She was great to communicate and send pics and my pups had a great time with her!!”

“My doggie is a happy doggie! She welcomed him and loved him from the first moment she saw him! Even when saying goodbye at the door. She took pictures and sent them to me which was so sweet! My doggie was in good expert loving hands. No worries!”

“Clarissa is amazing!! She always take such great care of my crazy animals! She is so good with my older dog and the extra care and attention he needs. She is also great with my puppy making sure he gets all the exercise he needs! Clarissa is always my go to when I need my fur babies looked after.”

About: I truly treat every dog like they’re my own, with patience, attention, and lots of love. I genuinely love any animal under the sun. And I’ll match every dog’s energy. From couch potato to zoomies expert! I’m currently working part time at a restaurant near me in Ogden UT. So I’m not constantly working, leaving plenty time to give your dogs affection and proper care. I’m also willing to move my schedule around and take days off it’s needed! I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel both physically safe and emotionally. My home does have a fenced yard with plenty of space to run around. I pride in leaving both your pets happy and your home clean and well maintained before your return!
“Corona took really great care of my pets! While she stayed at my home with my pets she took meticulous care of EVERYTHING! Her communication was phenomenal and left my feeling really reassured while we were away.”

“We couldn’t be happier with Zoe’s incredible care for our baby doggie, Caramel, while we were away on a family trip to Hawaii! From the moment we left, we knew Caramel was in the best hands. Zoe treated her like royalty, giving her so much love and snuggles that it almost made us jealous! We especially appreciated the regular updates, complete with photos of Caramel’s adorable antics and health check-ins. It brought us so much peace of mind knowing our sweet girl was happy and thriving while we were away. Zoe went above and beyond in every way, and we can’t recommend her highly enough. If you’re looking for someone who will love your pet as much as you do, Zoe is the one!”

West Haven pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had an amazing experience with Emmanuela as our house and dog sitter! She took such great care of all of our fur babies and treated them like they were her own. We received daily updates and photos, which we looked forward to and really helped our kids cope without their favorite pups and cats. She also cleaned our home to make sure it looked better than how we left it! Above and beyond! She was reliable, communicative, professional, and clearly loves animals. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet and house sitter. We will absolutely be booking with her again!
