“This was our 2nd time having Sheila stay with our hyper and energetic pit mix. She was responsive, clean, and every helped with other household things (skimmed pool, watered garden). Our pup takes medication which was given as prescribed. Sheila sent photos and updates and I felt very at ease knowing our house and pup were in good hands. We will definitely be using Sheila again and recommend her to anyone.”
“Samantha took wonderful care of our 2 cats and 2 dogs! She made sure we were kept up to date on everything happening and went above and beyond in her level of care. We will definitely be hiring her again in the future!!”
“Julie did a great job caring for our dogs! She sent lots of picture updates and was a quick communicator. Julie was able to be at our home with the dogs the majority of each day to keep them company. She gave them new toys and spent a lot of time with them playing outside!”
“Valerie is such a GREAT dog sitter, our dogs love her and she is amazing with them! She was very communicative and made me feel at ease leaving them in her care. I have to look no further!!!!”
“She did outstanding! Words can’t even describe how amazing the house was and how well my dog was taken care of the entire time! Always kept me up to date on how he was doing. Sends plenty of pictures! Above and beyond. Thank you so much for the 30th time!! For sure use you again. Highly recommend. :)”
“This was our first time using Jenna, and she was awesome. It's not an easy task taking care of four dogs and three cats, but she handled it so very well. Jenna sent us daily pictures, and all of our fur babies always looked very relaxed and well cared for. We will definitely use her services again in the future.”
About: I have been in the animal care business for the last 10 years. I personally have a very loved dog that I have cared for, for the last 11 years. On top of caring for my family’s pets over the last 16 years. I work full-time with several days working from home. I know how important an animals schedule is and would do everything to maintain that so the pet’s routine is not affected. My dog and kitten get everything the want and everything I think they need 🤣. Leaving your animal in the trust of me would guarantee that the things you want done for your family are completed. These can include walks, playing with certain toys, or the use of certain leashes or collars.
About: What Sets Me Apart in Pet Sitting Services: ✅ Cat-Centric Experience – Many sitters focus on dogs, but I specialize in feline care. I understand cat behavior, body language, and how to build trust—even with shy or anxious cats. ✅ Personalized Attention – I don’t just “check in”—I engage. Each visit is tailored to your pet’s specific needs, routines, and personality. ✅ Reliable & Communicative – You’ll never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I send consistent updates, photos, and even videos, so you stay connected while you’re away. ✅ Medication & Special Care Expertise – Comfortable administering oral medication, eye drops, or specialized care for senior or special-needs pets. ✅ Calm & Trustworthy Presence – Animals (especially cats!) respond best to calm energy and a gentle approach. I pride myself on being a steady, stress-free presence in your pet’s routine. ✅ Respect for Your Home – I treat your home with the same care and respect I give your pets—leaving it tidy, secure, and exactly as you left it. I currently work full time, 2 off days typically during the week. I can come early in the mornings before work to feed/let dogs out. Then in the afternoon I can come back walk dogs/play with pets and feed them. I do not offer care for pets in my house. I only offer pet sitting at a clients house. Let me know if you have any questions.
“She took great care of Nova and we were extremely thankful for her availability. Autumn is great at communicating needs or questions. She even sent the cutest nova selfie on Valentine’s Day.”
“Grants first introduction with my pups was wonderful. He very responsive, and easy to communicate with. I feel very comfortable knowing that we have someone we trust, and our boys enjoy. Couldn’t be more pleased. ?”
“Samantha was by far the best sitter we have ever had for our three German shepherds. We don't know Samantha at all and were in a pinch to find someone for a weekend trip so we looked into Sam. She was so quick to respond, knowledgeable, friendly, and even offered to come over and meet the pups to ensure they were comfortable with her before the trip. I could sit here all night and explain how good she was but if you are on this app looking for a sitter, its because you love your animals and if you're anything like me, you trust them. My oldest shepherd has the best instinct I've ever seen in a dog and he is always right about good and bad people. He usually takes time to warm up but the moment Sam walked through the door, he immediately ran up to her, wagged his tail, and wanted to play. That was enough for me to know, she is the best through and through. Book Sam if you want to enjoy your trips knowing your babies are taken care of from someone with a genuine love for animals. Thank you Sam ❤️”

Olivia A.
“I highly recommend Olivia as a responsible and loving pet caregiver. Having grown up with a variety of pets—cats, dogs, ferrets, gerbils, and more—Olivia has always had a natural affinity for animals of all shapes and sizes. She's taken care of my pets on numerous occasions, always showing them love and attention. I’ve been impressed by how she documents her time with them on social media, whether they’re playing fetch, cuddling, or learning new commands like sit and heel. Olivia’s dedication and care are evident in everything she does, making her a fantastic choice for anyone in need of pet sitting, walking, or home tending services. Just a heads up, she’s not a fan of spiders—so perhaps someone else for that job!”
Alli M.
“Alli did a great job taking care of my pup. On time, professional, and willing to accept the job last minute. Will definitely ask to pet sit again.”
Whitney A.
“Whitney has provided exceptional care for our fur (and human) babies throughout the last several years. She has such a positive attitude and goes above and beyond to spoil them each and every visit. I cannot recommend her enough if you are looking for someone who will love your pets like her own.”
Melissa H.
“I highly recommend Melissa for pet sitting and dog walking services on Rover! She took exceptional care of my Basset Hound, Snickers, while I was away from home. Melissa ensured Snickers had exercie with regular walks and fed on schedule. She also administered Snickers' medication with care and attention. Beyond the basics, Melissa provided Snickers with love, affection, and companionship, which made all the difference. It's clear that she truly cares about the animals she looks after. I was able to travel with peace of mind knowing Snickers was in such good hands. Thank you, Melissa, for going above and beyond!”
