“I was so impressed with Amalia's attention to detail and compassion for my baby, Fitty (my cat-son). Amalia made me feel so comfortable so I could really enjoy myself away. Thanks so much Amalia, you did a great job and I will be hiring you again!”

“Oh my goodness I can't say enough about her! We have a very shy dog and she warmed right up to Skylar. We could not be happier to have found such a wonderful dog watcher. She keep us up to date and sent photos. Thank you!”

“Jill was very communicative and flexible. We had flight delays on our return and she was able to be flexible if we needed her to stay longer. House looked great upon our return but most importantly, Marley seemed happy and normal! Which tells me that she got lots of love and attention and her routine was kept.”

“We were going out of town just after Christmas through the New Year and our usual dog sitter canceled the day before we were leaving. I remembered seeing the Rover app and went online to see what it was about. After entering the initial information we saw Darrian as a service provider and I reached out to her through the app. Darrian responded within minutes and was able to come meet us the same day. Darrian was a very delightful young lady and she stayed in our home and watched our dog for the entirety of our trip. She communicated with us daily about our dog by sending texts, pictures and videos. We have had several dog sitters over the years and Darrian has been the best by totally relieving all the emotional stress associated with leaving your pet at home for multiple days. We will definitely be reaching out to Darrian again in the Spring.”

About: I have experience caring for dogs through friends, family, and personal experience. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, administering basic care, and giving plenty of love and attention. I’m always eager to learn your dog’s unique needs and preferences. I work from home on Thursdays and Fridays and have most weekends free, allowing me to provide attentive, loving care and plenty of quality time for your fur babies When babysitting pets in my home, I have a fully fenced backyard where they can safely go outside when needed, and I live in a great neighborhood for walks. I always follow the pet’s routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care.
“Rhonda was great as a sort of last minute booking as our usual dog sitter was unable to watch them. She sent pictures of the babies! She even clipped our cats “murder mittens” as we completely forgot to do that before we left. The animals seemed to love her and she took care of our home! 10/10 recommended!”

About: Many many years experience taking care of pets and house sitting. I’ve looked after all kinds of pets: dogs, cats, birds, fish, and even some farm animals. I’m great at following instructions for the pets and household. Whether it’s giving medication or watering houseplants, I got you covered! I want to give the pet owner as much peace of mind as possible that their fur baby will be safe and happy. I have Friday, Saturday, and Sunday off work, dedicated to pet sitting (I’m a caregiver during the week). I can do quick stop in care as well Mon-Thurs. I try my best to care for pets as perfectly as possible. I’m great at following instructions for the animals and home. I will always spoil them too! I love giving lots of pets and hanging out on the couch with them. I will treat them like my own.
“Jonathan watched my kitties over Easter weekend while I was out of town. He sent pics and kept me up to date on how they were doing. They seemed happy and taken care of when I got home 🩵”

“Şebnem did a great job in watching our dog while out of town for Thanksgiving. She was very attentive, sent multiple updates with pictures and videos. Would definitely use her again and recommend her.”

“Hannah was wonderful with my two cats. She listened to my boundaries with teaching Caddo and reinforced them. No training was lost while I was away. She gave plenty of updates with pictures and videos. She even provided a detailed summary of the visit since I couldn’t be there before she left. She’s wonderful and I look forward to her staying with them again.”

“I can't say enough good things about Sarah as a person and a dog sitter! She took incredible care of Dolly, and I felt completely at ease leaving her in Sarah’s hands. From the moment we met, I could tell that Sarah was not only trustworthy but also genuinely loved dogs. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which made me feel connected to Dolly while I was away. Dolly was happy and well cared for, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’m so grateful for Sarah’s wonderful services and will absolutely be using her again in the future!”

“Deborah was fantastic! She stayed in touch daily. She brushed Piper sometimes twice a day! She walked her every day multiple times. Played ball with her and definitely took her for a really fun car ride! Deborah also took fantastic care of our house! We will most definitely use her again.”

“Awesome experience..Happy dog! Kyle stayed at our house for extended weekend with our Hazel and her disposition was so much better than when she is boarded while we are gone. Kyle went above and beyond on also taking care of the house and communicating with us! I definitely would use him again!”

“Desirae was so great with our 8 month old puppy and watching him at our home . She went above and beyond with watching him and I think she even left our house better than we left it !! We are so grateful to have found her.”

“Marta and Marshall are the perfect team. We have three dogs, two older (15 and 16) and they were loved and well cared for while we were gone! Marta stayed at our house and it looked great when we returned! Feel blessed to have found them.”

“Roua was an amazing dog/house sitter!! She is a very nice lady, friendly, great with dogs, great communicator, and just an all around great person. We will happily ask her to watch our dogs again whenever she can. We would highly recommend her! Thanks so much Roua!!”

Wood Glen pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had an amazing experience with our Stephany. She took wonderful care of our pets and our home, communicated clearly the entire time, and truly went above and beyond. When our travel plans changed unexpectedly, she stayed two extra nights without hesitation, which gave us so much peace of mind through the ice storm we had at the time. It’s rare to find someone so reliable, flexible, and genuinely caring. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.

Amalia (Molly) was fantastic with housesitting and watching our cat, who recently lost her other animal companions and so we don’t often leave alone anymore. Molly sent daily videos and pictures and was very helpful with the house as a winter storm came through, she offered to drip faucets, open cabinets, etc. We definitely recommend her and will be booking again in the future!

Robbie was fantastic! Robbie was professional, punctual and very attentive to our three pups. Robbie went above and beyond with the pups by taking them on daily walks and playing with them every time he came over. I can’t recommend Robbie enough to care for you pups, he was trustworthy and communicated effectively while we were away on vacation. Thank you Robbie!
Marisa did an amazing job taking care of my two dogs. She communicated daily with pictures and updates. She wrote down all of their needs during the meet visit which makes everything very easy. I definitely would have her watch my dogs again in the future. She gave me peace of mind while I was away for a few days.

Penny is the absolute best you could hope for. She loved our babies like we do and that's the most we could ask for. She's wise, smart, fun and very good at caretaking. Definitely recommended and will have her over again soon. Thx Penny, Blitz Tucker Willow and Daisy say " thank you! " ♥️♥️♥️♥️

Rhonda was a great dog sitter and house guest. She took good care of our Great Dane mix. She left our house very clean and even went above and beyond with raking up some leaves into a pile in our backyard. She sent us daily updates and was very kind and responsive.

We love Wendy! She did such an amazing job caring for our pups and communicating with us regularly. We loved all the photos she sent and our dogs had the best time. They were actually sad when she left! Wendy was very thoughtful, kind, and caring during her stay. We will absolutely be using her for future dog sittings! Thank you, Wendy!

I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter than Angela! She took care of my cat, Mickey, over Thanksgiving week, and I was blown away by how thoughtful and attentive she was. Angela sent me daily photos, videos, and detailed updates about how Mickey was eating, playing, and napping - everything a worried cat mom wants to know while away! Thanks to her, my “mom heart” was completely at peace the whole time. It was clear that she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. Mickey looked so happy and relaxed in every video - which says a lot, because he’s usually shy with new people. I would absolutely recommend Angela to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and communicative sitter. And without a doubt, the next time we go on vacation, we’ll be reaching out to Angela again!

Can’t recommend Lindsay enough! She is one of the best rovers I’ve ever had. She took the best care of my two dogs and I never doubted that they were safe and happy. One of my dogs randomly decided to forget his walk training and Lindsay handled it so well and was able to get him out of it! My other dog takes Prozac and she made sure she got it every morning. She was SO easy to communicate with and I got so many pictures and updates. They keep looking around for her now that I’m back so I know they loved her!! She also took perfect care of my home. I would 100% have Lindsay watch them again!

Anh has house sat our dog George three times now, and we always check with her first before booking anyone else - she is amazing! She is incredibly thoughtful, thorough and takes care of our buddy like he is her own. We always feel confident knowing she is taking the best possible care of him. She even thinks to leave on soothing music or cartoons for him before she leaves! She is fantastic, and we are so grateful for her!

We couldn’t be happier with the care Isabella provided for our dog Tanzi and cat Tibby. She was dependable, attentive, and clearly has a natural way with animals. Both pets were relaxed and well-cared-for when we returned, and it gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Everything went smoothly with no complaints at all. Highly recommend Isabella to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!
