“Madeline did such a wonderful job taking care of our pups in our home for the weekend! She was super responsible and responsive and it was clear our babies had a wonderful time with her. We will definitely reach out to Madeline again for future dogsitting!”
“Review for Paola: Paola took care of our two dogs, Modo and Millie, and our cat, Snap, for 10 days—and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the start, she was communicative, professional, and warm. She took the time to get to know each of our pets’ unique personalities and routines, and it was clear they felt completely at ease with her. Throughout our time away, Paola sent regular updates, including photos and notes that gave us complete peace of mind. Modo and Millie got plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles, and Snap—even though he’s usually a bit reserved—seemed totally relaxed in her care. We came home to happy, healthy pets and a tidy home. Paola went above and beyond, and we’re so grateful for the love and attention she gave our fur family. We would absolutely work with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a truly thoughtful and dependable sitter.”
“Katherine was amazing with my girls!! She was able to do a meet and greet before our booking and ever since was very responsive and kept me update all the time. At the time of her stay she was very respectful of our home, and took amazing care of my dogs. Definitely will book again!!”
“Sierra did such an amazing job! She kept in contact with me for my entire vacation. She sent lots of photos which is always great because I definitely missed my boys. She also took my dogs to the park on multiple occasions, which was a surprise, but a welcomed one. I would recommend her time and time again to anyone who is looking for someone to take care of their dogs while they’re out of town.”
“Faith was wonderful with our cat, Bitty! She is 17 with severe kidney disease and requires a lot of extra care and medication. Faith is gentle and kind and gave Bitty all of her meds for us while we were away. She was super communicative and sent us adorable pictures! I recommend Faith to anyone whose critters need a little bit of extra TLC and will continue to trust her with our little fur babies ?”
“Sarah did a fantastic job with taking care of our girl. Our 10 year old laborer rarely eats when we travel, but with Sarah she did eat. Our girl was so relaxed and happy when we arrived home. You could hardly tell that Sarah had been in the house it was so clean.”
“Jennifer is fantastic! Our pup had an emergency and she handled everything as if Bindi was her own and kept us updated throughout the process. She will be our first call to watch Bindi in the future. 10/10 recommend!”
“Lyndsey was great! She took wonderful care of my senior dogs. It was such a relief to know they were being well taken care of. I will definitely ask Lyndsey again to house sit and watch my dogs.”
“My pups can be standoffish with strangers but Cedric walked in and won them over immediately. Cedric helped me out on short notice and on a holiday, and left my place clean and neat. I would definitely have him watch my dogs again.”
“Yolanda stayed at our home and watched our dog Polly. Polly loves her and we are always thankful that we have Yolanda to keep her healthy and loved while we are away. Yolanda is the best!”
“As always - Elizabeth is reliable, communicative and so wonderful to work with while we are away! We always know our buddy and our home is in safe hands!”
“Kemmesha fat exceeded our expectations, she went above and better to not only take care of our mini poodle while we were in the hospital having our baby, but she also was kind enough to provide us with updates for peace of mind while away from our furr baby. With Kemmesha sitting my pup at my home, i felt comfortable and relaxed enough to focus on my baby and my recovery while in the hospital. Cant stress enough, how grateful I am to have found her on here. She’s kind, respectful of our home and wishes, did everything we asked, genuinely cared for our anxious sad puppy, and best of all stayed day and night to ensure our peace of mind while going through the most stressful yet joyous day of our lives! Im eternally grateful 🥹”
“Michael watched our dog at our home for a week. He was very responsible and kept us informed when our dog started having behavioral issues. Michael was so patient while our dog was getting used to having a new sitter and us being gone. He tried different ways to get him to eat his food and take his medications. We were so thankful to have someone we trusted while we were away.”
“We were so glad to have Carmen back at our house for the weekend. We were able to completely unplug from watching our pup for a few days because Carmen is so good at updating us when needed and following directions to a T. We consider ourselves lucky anytime Carmen is able to help out with a service!”
“Lauren is an attentive and diligent sitter who goes above and beyond. We entrusted her with our corgi with Epilepsy, and she made sure to follow directions very closely and provided daily to semi-daily updates, with photos and funny stories. Even though we missed our boy, she helped us feel a part of his everyday. Lauren was very willing to learn how to take care of our baby but also made sure to treat our home very well. She went above and beyond what we asked of her. Half way through our trip we realized we had booked out rover reservation 1 day early and she made adjustments to stay as long as possible until another friend could come take care of our baby. She prepped out our pups medication and food and was willing to show our friends how to care for our furry family member. We will most definitely use Lauren in the future. Your pup and home will be well taken care of with Lauren.”
About: I love dogs, cats, animals in general! I teach children all day so my patience is amazing! If your dog wants to smell every blade of grass then I’ll wait as long as they need. I have two very different dogs at home a one year old and a 10 year old so I have high levels of experience with all ages. I also have been a pet sitter for neighbors for years they love their walks! Saturdays and Sundays I’m available all day anytime ! I’m currently a teacher so Monday through Fridays are a bit tougher. Anytime after 6pm I’m there ! I understand at first most dogs won’t trust me(stranger danger) so we will start getting to know each other slowly. I do bond very quickly with everyone so by the third time we should be best friends !
“Lisa was amazing! Our Zoey is grumpy with new people but warmed right up to her! 10/10 would recommend to anybody. She was professional and communicated clearly with us. She even made sure to send pictures for my boys of the dogs' presents from Santa!”
About: Animals are such a passion of mine and I care for them as if they were my own. I truly put my all into taking care of them and making sure they have a blast. I work part time in the food industry right now so I decided to let this be a side hustle to help me with school. With the service I provide, even though the time spent with the pets isn’t long I make sure to follow your set instructions along with giving as much love to your pet as I can.
“Ashley did a first-time 5 night housesit for my almost 10 year old lab mix, and she did a great job. She followed my directions and gave me daily updates and photos. She was very responsive through the app. I felt confident my dog was well-cared for and would use her again.”

West Laurel pet parents share their Rover experiences
I’ve used Lisa to watch my dogs multiple times and she’s always done a great job. She sends pictures updates and is very responsive with messages.
Sean was one of the best dog sitters we have used from Rover. She met our expectations and then some. She communicated with us every day. She messaged at least once a day (which I absolutely loved), sent us pictures and kept us posted on their condition based on the heat wave. We have used multiple sitters on Rover and everyone of them has sent us pictures. If Sean had sent half as many pictures she would have easily exceeded all combined previous sitters. We really enjoy the pictures! I highly recommend Sean.
Randi was amazing! She house sat for our family for a week which meant she watched our 3 dogs and 1 cat. In the past, we have had others pop in three times a day or had our dog go to someone else's home. However, when we returned from vacations our pets have seemed anxious and on edge. Thankfully, this time our pets just seemed genuinely happy to see us, but not nervous or fearful. I believe this is specifically because of Randi staying with them all week and treating them with love and care. She's worth every dime!!!
Haylie was INCREDIBLE!! When I tell you she treated our dogs like they were her own family, I think our dogs would've preferred if we were gone longer!! We booked her for one overnight visit and she left the place in immaculate condition, you wouldn't be able to tell anyone was there! We have two corgis, one who loves people and the other who is more standoffish, but within hours of us leaving our shy corgi was already in her and her boyfriend's lap pressing his head against their cheek like he does with us!! They took them consistently on walks like we asked and I'm sure got a lot of playtime, because while we were only gone overnight, we came home and they passed out not long after! YOU NEED TO BOOK HAYLIE! She was a delight and we're absolutely going to hire her again in the future.
Awesome. Vicky was very caring and did a great job with my anxious pup! Also she was responsive and kept me updated throughout the weekend. Will definitely hire again!
We are so happy to have found Elizabeth she is great with our dog Lacy and it allows us to do some traveling now that we're retired without having to worry thank you so much ❤️
We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience on Rover! Emily was absolutely amazing. From the start, her professionalism made us feel at ease, and we knew our dog was in good hands. Not only did she give our pup plenty of outdoor time (more than we’re usually able to!) and lots of love, but she also treated our home with great respect—leaving it spotless and even tidier than when we left. We feel so lucky to have found Emily; she’s officially our go-to sitter now. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and attentive sitter!
