“Good communication. Willingness to do a meet and greet and house sit on short notice was a life saver. Rachel and family seem to really love pets and get to know their personalities. Our animals were all happy when we came home.”

“Daniel was amazing! He agreed to watch Jc last minute which was a huge blessing! I would 100% recommend Daniel as he made sure Jc felt safe and loved!”

“Second time using Allison and I absolutely trust that my dogs are happy and safe in her care. She truly goes above and beyond, which gives me real peace of mind while I’m away on vacation. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Monica was great. Very professional, communicated well, and took great care of the house and our dog. Will definitely be on my list for future sitter or dog walker needs.”


About: I have taken care of dogs of all sizes small to extra large as well as cats and even some exotic pets. I have been the go to sitter for my friends and family every time they go on vacation. I love caring for animals and can’t wait to help you with yours. I am experienced with animals- puppies to elderly dogs, kittens to elderly cats. I homeschool my kids so I have a very flexible schedule and can work with what you need. I mostly have open afternoons and Friday through the weekend. While I’m taking care of your pet I will do all I can to assure they are taken care of physically as well as emotionally offering love, play and exercise, whatever it is they need that day. Every pet is different and I will work with you to ensure they are getting what they need from me, walks, pets or play.
“Yasmin was very studious with my puppies. She was not afraid to communicate with me. She did a great job letting me know the dogs were being taken care of. highly recommend her.”

“Christina did a fantastic job watching the house and dogs! The dogs were well taken care of, all the instructions were followed, and she was very conscientious with respect to watching the house. Highly recommend!”

“Jenna is awesome and very professional! Great communication, above and beyond in general and my pets loved her. They were relaxed when we got home from our 4 day long trip. 10/10 recommend!!”


About: I worked throughout high school at a humane society, focusing on puppy and adult dog care, also writing grants for the foundation. Since then, I’ve had three dogs—one Canaanite Shepherd and two huskies. I also have a lovely turtle at home named Zoom! Animal care is part of my daily life, and I strive to give my animals (and yours!) the best life possible! I currently work from home most days, so I can be fairly flexible with my schedule (given enough notice). I am happy to work with your and your dog’s needs! While I don’t offer care in my own home, I am happy to visit your home to let your animals out and get them some exercise!
“Meghan was amazing with our boy. Followed instructions very well and made our baby so happy! Worked with us on a missed connecting flight, I appreciate her so much! Will be booking again next time we travel!”

“Katherine did a great job watching all of our animals. She was able to handle multiple days and nights with multiple pets and could handle complex instructions and gave them the best care. Would definately use again”

“We really love Jessica and she takes good care of our fur babies! We have a 7 year old foxhound a 7 month old new lab/beagle mix puppy at our house and she took on both last week, and they just loved having her here! She always sends us updates and photos and I feel very at ease when we are out of town and she is here. Highly recommend.”

“Sophia took excellent care of Tiffany while I was out of town for a few days. I keep rebooking her because when I come home, Tiffany is happy and stress free. Sophia follows the instructions I leave for Tiffany’s medicine and routine perfectly and I know I can trust her with Tiffany and my home.”

“Lori took very good care of our 2 very different dogs. One has anxiety issues and one is so little and hates being alone. We had to be away for 8 days, and since this was our 1st time using this service we were a bit nervous...but it all turned out fantastic and I feel so much better about leaving my girls. I will be using Lori again and highly recommend her to care for your 4 legged fur babies.”

“Brittney did a great job with the pets while we were away. She sent multiple pictures and updates and made us feel comfortable that our pets were in good hands. We would definitely book Brittney again in the future.”


About: Ive dog sit for friends and family at their home. Taking care of them in their own personal environment. Clients home care would to be following their rules/routines for their pet. Rather that be a walk or playing with their toys, feeding schedule..etc. ive sat older dogs, younger dogs and even taken a blind pup out for a day from the shelter! I work a full time job but i am able to leave once or twice during my shift to take care of the animals in your home! I will stop by and let them outside and play with them for a bit during my shift. I would stop by before my shift and immediately after, i always make sure they have enough time to play and go to the bathroom before i leave. I have dogs at home that arent dog friendly so i do have experience with reactive dogs! I cant keep other pets in my own home while you are not home but i am more than happy to hangout at your home and care for them!
“Raelyn took excellent care of our Lab while we were out of town. She provided lots of updates with pictures and very communicative with us. We have already rebooked her!”

Sophia was wonderful! She understood our older dog and took wonderful care of her and the house. She even placed her used towel in our laundry area which was such a thoughtful move. Couldn’t be happier with care Sophia took or our little dog and house. Will welcome her back again!
Absolutely amazing house and dog sitter. She went above and beyond in every way and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Tiger was so loved, cared for, and spoiled the entire time — we could tell immediately when we got home. She kept us updated, treated our home with care, and truly cared for Tiger like he was her own. We are beyond grateful and would recommend her to anyone without hesitation! 🐾✨

This is the second time we have used Rover.com and the second time we have used Rachel R. Rachel is an awesome house sitter and our dogs Hershey & Cinnamon absolutely love her. Rachel sends us numerous pictures & funny videos while we are away. Frequently, she goes above and beyond the dog sitting service to take care of our house and our dogs. For example, the 1st time Rachel watched our dogs, she DeScaled my coffee pot and other things that Cathy & I wouldn't have even thought of. On her second time, there was a tornado warning and severe thunderstorm warning. While we hadn't left any instructions for bad weather, she contacted us immediately to let us know and to see how we wanted her to handle the dogs for severe weather. Then, Rachel kept us informed about the progression of the storms. Also, Rachel is very flexible and accommodating to our needs and last minute requests. With Rachel, we never have to worry about our dogs and can just relax and enjoy our time away. I have recommended Rachel to our neighbors and friends.
Erin did a great job caring for my four pack. Her pictures and videos showed me relaxed dogs comfortably snuggled onto her lap just like they like it. It’s nice to be able to leave them in their home environment and know they’re being cared for and loved on by someone who truly loves and enjoys pets.

Lydia is outstanding. Our senior dog can often get anxious when we are away, but he was visibly calm and relaxed with Lydia. She gave us frequent updates and kept us well informed. And while he was very happy to have us home it wasn't the manic greeting we have experienced before, it was clear he was well cared for and experienced a calm and relaxing environment while we were away.
