“100% pleased with the care Samantha provided to my anxious doggo this past weekend. Sam was very professional and sent me a lot of photos which I loved! I will definitely book with Sam again. 100% recommend her as a dog/house sitter. Thank you!”

“Katie was our first Rover sitter and we are very happy to have found someone we can trust with our dogs and cats! Thanks Katie! We really appreciate your patience, kindness, and genuine care for all of our fur-babies!”

About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. I think my first gig I was maybe 13??? (I'll be 40 this year.) I just remember walking into my neighbors house after I fumbled with the key and the cats being happy to see me. I have experience with senior cats and kittens alike, and also dog care from puppy to senior. I can administer oral medication in pill pouches but I don't like the forceful method. I can also help with topical medications as needed. I do have formal training in any of these areas just many years of helping take care of my own and others. I am working part time so I have plenty of time to help with all your pets needs and wants. Play time here we come! I do not have a fenced in yard but there is a park 3 miles from my house that is gorgeous for dog walks. I have an entire bedroom that has been converted into a work area for other animals or a guest bed can be set up if I have a human over. But cats can have tgeir own space and litter box in this room or if a dog is getting overwhelmed we can go sit in there and have quiet one on one time.
“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 ❤️”

“April is truly a dog whisperer! She watched my two Yorkies at my home, and I couldn't be more impressed. One of my dogs, Dawson, has severe separation anxiety and usually takes a long time to trust strangers. To my total shock, it was love at first sight for him—he didn't even care when I left! April took wonderful care of my fur babies and even went above and beyond by leaving my house spotless. Finding someone Dawson trusts is rare, and I’ll definitely be booking April again.”

“Jessica was great! She was able to be here last minute when my original sitter had to cancel the morning of my trip. The animals were well taken care of and the house was clean!”

About: I've had dogs my whole life. Small dogs, big dogs, I love them all. I'm a very reliable and trustworthy person. I ran an in home child daycare for 5 years where I was trusted with people's children, you can rest assured that I will care for your furry children as my own. I'm a stay at home Mom with a flexible schedule. I am happy to do mid day walks and check ins on your furry friend. I have 2 dog friendly medium/large pups in my home and a big fenced in backyard. I have gates and crates as well if anyone needs a break from one another. If I'm coming to your home I will follow your directions and expectations to a t.
About: My mom used to take in foster animals, as well as rescue many, when I was growing up. So I've always been around different animals with different personalities. I'm particularly great with cats and dogs. I have over ten years of experience taking care of animals and always have at least three of my own as an adult. I don't have much going on currently, so it shouldn't be too hard to plan around my current schedule! I can also be flexible and change days around as needed. I do a lot of research before taking on big responsibilities. I can follow a schedule or just work off of basic rules. In the case of me going to an owners house, my personal motto is to leave a house in better condition than when I arrived.
“Alex is a fantastic pet sitter. The instructions for my senior cat can be a bit complicated - Alex took care of her and our golden retriever so well. Highly recommend. She left our house the way we left it, was very communicative, and trustworthy person.”

“Michayla took care of my two cats for a week while I was on vacation, and she did a wonderful job! She is very caring and attentive, and she made sure to send me pictures and updates throughout the week which really put my mind at ease. I will definitely book her again in the future.”

“Sheila was great! I’ve never used Rover before and never left our pets with someone other than family. Sheila came for a meet and greet before we finalized the booking (I was afraid our wild pups might scare her off) and all my anxiety was instantly relieved. She is very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. She had great questions and explained her usual process, making it very obvious that she has plenty of experience. I didn’t have any worries about leaving our pets and home in her care. Sheila sent updates and pics during the week and everything was in perfect condition when we got home. I can’t imagine anything that would have made the experience any better! Thank you Sheila!”


About: I’ve cared for dogs with a range of personalities, from energetic to calm and relaxed. I’m comfortable handling daily routines like feeding, walks, and playtime, and I pay close attention to each dog’s needs and behavior. I believe dogs do best with patience, consistency, and lots of love, and I treat every fur baby like my own. I work a rotating schedule, which allows me to offer flexible pet care throughout the week. I’m generally available for evenings, weekends, and select weekdays when I’m off, making me a great fit for drop-ins, walks, and weekend care. I’m always happy to communicate and coordinate to make sure your fur baby gets the attention and care they need. I’m very attentive to cleanliness and detail when caring for pets. From tidy feeding areas to a comfortable, well-kept space, I make sure each fur baby’s environment is clean and stress-free. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would expect for my own.
“We will always book Matt as our pet sitter in the future—he is truly a gem! We have a senior dog who is typically very wary of strangers, and Matt went above and beyond to ensure she felt comfortable. He took the time to do a meet-and-greet with all of our pets before the booked stay, which immediately put us at ease. By the time his stay started, it was like he was already part of the family. Throughout his time with our pets, Matt showed incredible care and attention to detail. He followed every instruction to a T, ensuring our senior dog got her medications on time and tailoring his approach to her specific needs. His calm and patient demeanor worked wonders, and it was clear she trusted him completely—a rare and heartwarming sight for us! Matt didn’t just care for the pets; he also left the house spotless. Coming home to a clean home and happy, relaxed pets was such a relief. His thoughtful updates, including photos and notes, were icing on the cake and let us truly enjoy our time away without worrying. If you’re looking for someone who is not only professional and trustworthy but also truly compassionate and attentive, Matt is the one to book. We can’t thank him enough and look forward to having him care for our pets again!””

About: I have been a multi dog owner for as long as I can remember. I was not able to have kids so they are treated as if they were. I love kisses and lovin's from all Dogs and would treat them like they are my own. Any pets I take care of, I can promise I will follow your directions but be under the care where you would have no worries and would send lots of pictures I am currently not working so would be able to spend all the time needed to take care of your special loved ones as specified. My dogs are spoiled. They sleep with me and my husband and they curl up with us on the couch. We do have a privacy fence and a doggy door. I prefer babysitting in owners home but can accommodate otherwise
About: I have been around animals my whole life. I currently have 2 dogs and 3 cats but have also had reptiles as well. Animals are something I throughly enjoy being around and caring for. You can be assured that your animals will recieve the care and affection they need and deserve if you decide to book me for your pet sitting needs! I work full time 3rd shift so am available mostly during the day. Most weeks I work 4 days Monday through Thursday. With enough notice I can be available anytime. I provide a fun and safe environment for all of the animals I care for. I’m not in this app to just come to your house and provide basic needs (unless of course that’s all they need) . You can insure that your animals will get lots of affection and care. This app is a hobby for me and I do it because I love animals and enjoy helping others.
“Blair took wonderful care of our dogs and home. She went above and beyond, with last minute changes and a medically complex dog. Would recommend to anyone that is normally reticent to leave their pups behind.”

“Jennifer was great with my 5 fur babies!! They all warmed up to her super fast. She sent pics and updates every day. I came home to happy animals. I would love to book her again in the future.”

“Emmaline was super responsive and clear during her stay. Our dogs took to her quickly and she left our house cleaner than when she arrived. Will definitely be booking Emmaline before our next trip!”
