“Sabrina was fantastic. She was thankfully available for a last minute house sitting with Franklin. He's a rescue so it can be tricky getting him used to folks. She had no problem getting him out for walks and hanging out with him. Truly appreciative!”

“Shannon is the absolute GREATEST! She’s professional, communicative and took amazing care of our animals. She’s not our first Rover but I'm hoping she’ll be our last! I am so relieved we found her and will always be our go to for when we need our pets looked after. 11/10. Thank you Shannon!”

“Leslie provided exceptional care for our dogs! She was thorough with communications, messages, and picture updates for the 5 days we were away, she was very affectionate to our dogs, spent lots of time keeping our dogs and cat company, and kept good watch over our home. I would highly recommend Leslie for your pets, and we already plan to use her for another trip next month!”

“When we got home after 5 days away, I swear our dog was disappointed to see us instead of Shanisa! I received daily photos and videos with updates of our dog and cat while we were away, and she was very communicative leading up to and throughout her stay. She will be the first person we reach out to in the future when we need a house/petsitter!”
“Chris is so thoughtful and generous. She brought a big bone for my dog, cleaned up my house and left food for me when she left. How sweet is that! She's very caring and attentive. I definitely recommend her for anyone's fur-babies!! 💕”

“Dylan was excellent. Our pup got an injury while we were away. He handled things gracefully, remained calm and got the pup to the vet for care. I would recommend and use his services again.”

“Jessica did a fantastic job staying with my dogs while we were out of town. She was very thoughtful and regularly sent updates and pictures. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Our fur babies loved her! Julia stayed at our house for a week to watch our two dogs and cat. We did a meet and greet in our home about a month prior to our trip and immediately knew that she would be perfect. We also felt that we could trust her and liked that she was thorough and asked many questions. We will definitely be asking her to pet sit for us again and would highly recommend her to anyone in our area.”

“Gavin dropped in on my pup who is post-surgery and needs to be kept quiet. She loved Gavin! He sent several photos and descriptive updates, which I always appreciate from sitters, and especially appreciated for this visit. We also have shy cats who came around to him. Will definitely book again!”

“Cyndal was amazing! Kept us updated throughout her stay with our pup. Our husky mix can be a bit much for some people but Cyndal wasn’t even phased with her high energy and anxiety. We can’t thank her enough 😊”

“This was my first time leaving my dogs with someone outside of my family for a trip. I and my pups (especially Papas) were nervous. However, Rachel was super understanding and patient! She consistently communicated throughout the entire process. Eventually my pups were feeling more comfortable which was super helpful as I had multiple flights canceled due to a snow storm. Thankfully, Rachel was gracious enough to extend her stay! I felt such an ease of mind knowing that my animals were safe and sound with her especially during a snow storm. Would definitely recommend and utilize again!”

“Brad did a fantastic job caring for our senior Greyhound in our home during an international trip. He was communicative, responsive, and asked questions when needed to ensure he was providing the best care for our girl. I’m very grateful that Brad’s professionalism allowed us to have a worry-free vacation! And a bonus- the house looks even better than when we left it.”
“Sarah was wonderful! My dogs clearly loved her and they got lots of snuggles and walks while we were gone. She was also really good about communicating her schedule and sent me daily updates and pictures of the pups. We are looking forward to having her back.”

“Matthew took good care of our very large, reactive dog while we were away. He sent us photos daily and was good at communicating if he had any questions. We will definitely be asking Matthew to watch our pup next time we go away.”

“Jackie was wonderful! She accommodated our request last minute—and sent great pictures of our puppy! If I were to travel to Wilmington again, I would feel very comfortable asking Jackie to help us again!”

“Taylor was amazing. I went away for the weekend and have literally never left my dog without anyone but family before. I was so nervous. But Taylor came over for a meet and great before and gave me complete confidence. I was able to enjoy my weekend without worrying about my dog or what was going on at home. She even got my pup out of the apartment when the fire alarm suddenly went off! So sad she is leaving the area after graduation or I would definitely book her again!”


About: I've had dogs my whole life that I have taken care of and am comfortable caring for dogs of different ages and personalities. I currently help care for a dog that me and my family sit for during the day while his owners at work. I provide supervision, walks and playtime. I also have helped foster puppies through a rescue program where they will stay overnight and I will watch them. With this, experience I am able to adapt well to all different kinds of dogs needs. I enjoy spending time with dogs and strive to create a positive experience for both dogs and their owners. I'm currently working part time for a summer camp from 9-3 on the weekdays. I would be available anytime after 3 to dog sit or walk. For overnights I would be able to do weekends. I could do weekdays I would just have to go to work at 9. I do have a break from 12-1 where I could go check on your dog, feed them, and give them a walk. I would follow each dogs routine and respect every owners home to help make their dog feel comfortable. I will also keep a daily and clear communication throughout my stay.

Winterthur pet parents share their Rover experiences
Dylan was amazing!! He was 100% ok with giving our cat her topical medicine twice a day along with managing our super energetic, sometimes stubborn dog. We forgot to leave a few things out and he communicated right away and managed getting everything needed. He sent update pics that made us feel good while we were away. We'll definitely be rebooking with Dylan again! Highly recommend :)

Stephanie was did a wonderful job taking Clara on her long walks and sent lots of pictures. The house was in perfect shape when we returned and we had peace of mind that our dog was well cared for on our first trip away from her. We will definitely book her again.
