“We used Tracy (and Rover) for the first time while we traveled out of the country. He house sat our 2 dogs and did great! We got pictures daily and he was very responsive to my questions! We would definitely use him again!”

“Sami is great with my Great Dane pup of 10 months who can be mischievous and my adult Great Dane who is very shy. She has great patience and Is very kind and I think the dogs sense that and respond well to her direction.”

“Bree was great with the dogs and house sit! She even stopped by before the sit to get acquainted, which was really nice. We will definitely book her again in the future!”

“Tonie is always amazing but she went above and beyond this time, immediately assuring us she would do extra drop-in visits when our flight home was delayed (on Christmas Eve no less!). Tonie is the best!”


“We booked Eliot to watch out house/dogs while we were on spring break. We are so glad we found him! He was very communicative and sent updates while still being able to manage our three Aussies independently. He was so kind and calm and we could tell that our dogs felt at ease with him by how they acted when we returned from our extended trip.”

“Samantha was fantastic, very communicative & punctual! Our Belly girl was so happy when we got home & it gave us such peace of mind while we were gone knowing she was so well taken care of.”

“Samantha was amazing! She was communicative and friendly. I could tell that Finn loved her. She took great care of my home as well and I would recommend her to anyone. (Although I’d love to keep her a secret so she’s always available for Finny!:))”

“Boston Did fantastic with my 2 dogs, she was reliable and easy to communicate with...She sent pics and let me know how my 2 dogs were doing, she was very quick to respond...her prices are very reasonable and I would highly recommend her...Thanks Boston..”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a little kid. Not just my own, but family’s, friend’s, and neighbors. I believe animals deserve the best love and care, and you deserve to have peace of mind that your babies are safe! <3 I’m currently working part-time, so my schedule is very flexible! A week’s notice works the best for me when it comes to securing my availability. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, secure environment where pets can feel relaxed and loved, just like they would at home. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique needs and always follow any specific care instructions closely. You can trust that your pet will be in safe, capable hands every step of the way. I’m also a very active person, so walks and playtime are a big part as well!

About: I stand out from other sitters because I bring a rare combination of veterinary training, hands‑on clinical experience, and a lifetime of caring for animals of all sizes. I’m currently a veterinary nursing student at Marian University Plymouth, graduating in August 2026, which means I approach every pet with a strong understanding of animal health, behavior, and safety. Alongside my education, I’ve worked as a veterinary assistant in both large and small animal medicine, including at Crossroads Food Animals Veterinary Service, LLC and during my externship at the Emergency Veterinary Care Center in Summer 2025. These roles have given me extensive experience with senior pets, animals with medical needs, medication administration, safe animals handling and recognizing early signs of illness or stress — skills that most sitters don’t have. Beyond my clinical background, animals have been a central part of my life from the very beginning. I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, and I’m comfortable with everything from energetic puppies to shy or anxious pets. I also have a fountain in farm work which created a strong sense of responsibility and dedication. Your pets aren’t just watched — they’re cared for by someone who truly understands them. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I’m currently completing my externships for my veterinary nursing program, which gives me a structured but flexible schedule. I work Monday through Thursday, with an hour break at 1 PM, so depending on your location I can stop by for mid‑day potty breaks during the week. I’m also able to provide a consistent, work‑style schedule, meaning I can visit in the mornings before work and be available again in the evenings for feeding, walks, or check‑ins. My weekends are even more open, allowing plenty of time for longer visits or extended care. Because of my profession and lifestyle, pet sitting fits seamlessly into my routine, and I make sure each pet gets reliable, attentive care throughout the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and consistent environment that keeps pets comfortable. I like too follow the pet’s normal routines as closely as possible — from feeding and medication schedules to preferred walking routes and bedtime habits — because familiar patterns help reduce stress. I treat every home with the same respect I’d want for my own. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, enrichment, and reassurance so they feel relaxed even when their family is away. My goal is to provide care that feels seamless, trustworthy, and grounded in both compassion and professional experience.
About: I’ve been an owner of dogs my entire life and a lover of animals for just as long. I have experience with multiple dog breeds, cats, small animals, as well as farm species, such as llamas, horses, sheep, and cows. I adore all animals and just finished my third year pursuing a degree in animal science. I love meeting pets of all types and ages and getting to know their different personalities! Whether I’m taking them for a walk, dropping in for dinner and playtime, or hanging with them for a few days, I will provide careful attention to your pets’ specific needs. Your pets will always come first and I am dedicated to ensuring their comfort and your peace of mind. I will be in Fort Wayne throughout July and August for a part-time internship, but I have a flexible schedule. Please reach out to chat about your specific needs and we can work out dates/times that work for both of us! I am available to stay with your pets during the day and/or overnight, as well as just dropping in a few times a day to walk and feed. I can manage both longer walks and shorter potty breaks/time in the yard. I will be sure to get an understanding of your pets’ routines to keep them as comfortable as possible.
About: I had two dogs growing up, both Rottweilers. I’m most comfortable with medium to large dogs, but open to all sizes. I currently work as a bather at PetSmart, where I see all kinds of dogs. I’m open to bathing dogs at your home as well! I’m going to school to be a Vet Tech, and am trained in animal safety. I just moved cities and am working part time, so I have plenty of time for check-ins. I am available weekdays 10 am-10 pm, and some weekends, upon request. I currently live with a 7-year-old pit bull, who I help my friends take care of. We have a fenced in yard for potty breaks. He doesn’t do much playing though, he’s a lazy boy. I regularly feed him his meals, trim his nails, and work on training because of a new baby in the house. With cats, I’m a very attentive parent. I always have multiple litter boxes and scratching posts/toys available to my cats. They have water fountains, and automatic feeders for portion control. They also get lots of snuggles in bed every night and treats when they are on good behavior.
Westchester pet parents share their Rover experiences
We booked Eliot to watch out house/dogs while we were on spring break. We are so glad we found him! He was very communicative and sent updates while still being able to manage our three Aussies independently. He was so kind and calm and we could tell that our dogs felt at ease with him by how they acted when we returned from our extended trip.

Sami and Muhammed are AMAZING! The two times that we have used them have been the least worried we’ve ever been while leaving our dogs behind. Not only can we tell that they are extremely well taken care of when we get home, but they seem to have experienced their own little vacation. Not so sure my oldest dog isn’t hoping Muhammed is returning today! Not only did they treat my dogs extremely well, took great care of our house, but they also managed to get better pictures of my dogs together than I have ever been able to! We will certainly be using their services again. They were our first Rover experience, and if you have any hesitation yourself about using Rover, I highly recommend you reach out to them.
Sierra was fantastic during her recent stay at our house!! She had great attention to detail and she followed ALL of my instructions. My fur babies were well taken care of and loved while I was out of town. I highly recommend Sierra for your pet sitting needs. I am already looking to book again with her for March!!
