Lauren just pet/housesat for us and did an amazing job! She was professional, communicative and we will have zero hesitation working with her again in the future! This was our first time working with a Rover sitter and, while we were initially a bit anxious, we had no worries after our meet and greet. Lauren took great care of both the animals and house while we were away. All of our animals were well cared for and the house was immaculate on our return. She really helped to make our getaway worry free!

Corrinn did a great job! She provided updates often and seemed to really bond with my kitties. I have 4 senior cats that have special needs and I felt very at ease with them in her care. They are very routine orientated and Corrinn didn’t miss a beat with the feeding and medicine schedules. I would definitely rebook and recommend her.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and former dog mom who’s joining Rover to filll the dog (or cat) shaped hole in my heart. After losing my own pup, I realized I can’t go through that solo again - but I’m ready to pour my love, attention, and care into your pups. I have hands on experience with reactive dogs, dogs on special diets, and high-energy breeds who need structure, patience, and a good walk. I live in a dog friendly condo near Sharon Woods, which had a great walking path perfect for strolls. I currently work a 9-5 position that gives me the flexibility of working from both home and in office. It makes it easier to accommodate owners. Dogs are always allowed on the couch unless you tell me not to, I have a back patio but will take your pup on active walks.

About: Hii ! my name is Maasha ( Pronounced like the month of May and ah sha) or Maemae ! I’ve always loved animals, especially dogs. I have a 6-year-old Shih Tzu named Paris, and she’s the sweetest girl ever. I also spend time at dog shelters playing with and caring for dogs, which has helped me get comfortable with different personalities and energy levels. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I can assure you that I’m very patient and attentive. I always make sure your fur babies feel comfortable and safe with me. I’m used to feeding, walking, giving medication if needed, and spending quality time with dogs. Pet care fits really well into my routine because I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting, where I can stay with your pet and keep them company. I make sure I have enough time to give each pet the attention they need, and I’ll always keep you updated so you know your pet is in good hands. I take safety and trust very seriously when caring for pets. I always follow your instructions and keep your pet on their normal routine so they feel comfortable. I also have a large trail park near my place for walks if approved. I’ll make sure your pet is safe and happy

Brittany is the best! This is the 2nd time I've used her when I travel abroad for over 2 weeks. All three of my dogs (all on multiple meds, 2 in diapers, 2 elderly, 1 special diet, 4x day need to go out) get all the care, attention, play and love they need. She communicates well without being intrusive, sends me pictures, and alerts me if anything is going on of concern with the house. It's difficult to put a price on the peace of mind I have when she is holding down the fort so I can enjoy my respite away. I will continue to use Brittany. I encourage you to book her for your next vacation.

We couldn’t with Jamie our dogs and cat sitter. From the moment we met, it was clear how caring, responsible, and genuinely loving Jamie is with animals. Our 2 dogs were so happy and clearly adored, and our cat was relaxed and comfortable the entire time. We received great updates and photos which gave us total piece of mind while we were away. Our home was treated with respect, and our 2 dogs and cat were cared for like they were her own. We would highly recommend Jamie to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and dependable pet sitter and will 100% be booking again!!

About: Ever since I was a kid, I have had an unwavering passion for helping animals. For example, whenever I would go to a party, I would lay down with the family dog or play with the resident cat. Many of my friends call me an animal whisperer because I naturally connect with dogs and cats. I am extremely patient with all animals and will attend to their needs. We recently said goodbye to an 11-year old Great Dane/Pyr who required a lot of special needs. I am able to care for young puppies and kittens up to senior cats and dogs. I work a job from 8 - 4 pm but can check on pets in the morning and evening. I am also free during the weekends for longer walks or check-ins. I make sure to follow the exact directions provided by the client, such as feeding instructions, walking instructions, and acclimating myself to the pet. I make sure to give the pet space and let them decide when they feel safe. For example, we recently adopted kittens and gave them 6 weeks of time before introducing them to our other pets.

Once again, we were so fortunate that Jamie was available to stay with our dog, Pepper. I have left other reviews of how special, caring, dependable, and capable Jamie is, so anyone interested can scroll down to read those. This was a short getaway (3 nights), during which Jamie and Pep had lots of rain and thunderstorms, and our sweet dog is afraid of storms. Pep simply will not go out in situations like this, so Jamie had to get up with her during two of those nights and take her out. A few other times, Pep couldn’t hold it anymore and made a mess in the house,which is very unusual for her. All this to say, Jamie takes this type of thing in stride, and knows these situations are just going to happen sometimes with pets. Jamie is the greatest! We so appreciate her care of Pep!

Abby and Stephen were wonderful and took such great care of our two large dogs! We don’t often travel without our fur babies because we are a bit extra as pet parents and it can be hard to find people who can watch multiple dogs, but they kept us updated and they were so happy the whole time. Thank you for such wonderful peace of mind while we were away!

If you’re looking for a dog sitter who truly treats your pup like family, I can’t recommend Katherine enough! She watched my dog Callie for a full week and went above and beyond. She made sure Callie got plenty of walks, lots of attention, and so much love while we were away. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Callie wasn’t just being “watched,” but genuinely cared for and spending quality time with someone who clearly loves dogs. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, which says everything! If you’re looking for someone dependable, thoughtful, and amazing with dogs, she’s the one. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful experience with Gina and are SO grateful to have found her. Lukee is a large pitbull mix recovering from TPLO surgery and needs extra help getting around with his harness. Gina's medical experience gave us so much peace of mind. She handled him gently and confidently and even spent time massaging him to keep him comfortable. When we ran late getting home, she stayed without hesitation and truly went above and beyond. We came home to a comfortable dog and felt completely at ease knowing he was in her care. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for thoughtful, skilled pet care.
