So glad we had Lorie take care of our Alli! Our dog is our child so when we’re away, we love seeing pictures and receiving updates on their visit. Lorie was super thoughtful in providing plenty of pictures and updates. We would definitely ask Lorie to watch Alli again!

Jenna’s the best! My dogs love her and are always happy to see her. She’s dependable and trustworthy. I recommend her to friends and will definitely have her watch our dogs the next time we’re out.

Tiffany & Tiara are great sitters! We could tell our pets were well cared for and had a great time! This was our first time using Rover and they helped us understand the process and put us at ease. Highly recommend having these two for your pet needs.

Sara is awesome! She came by for a meet & greet with us and our 2 dogs prior to official booking. We then booked her for a drop-in visit with Otis & Lily. They enjoyed their playtime, treats and snuggles, and she sent us the best photos. I can tell they are happy with Sara! She is very kind and trustworthy. We have already booked her again for house/dog sitting while we are away for a weekend.

We have been repeat clients of Fawn from house sitting for a week at a time to drop in visits for our high energy dogs (Rottweiler and American Bully). She loves our animals like her own, always shows up on time, and is in constant communication with us not only words but with pictures too when we are away. She gives us a great sense of security when our babies are in her care, especially since they adore her. We highly recommend her for your pet’s needs.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes for over 10 years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs, and those needing a little extra patience and care. Whether it’s playtime, training support, or simply keeping your pet comfortable, I make sure every animal feels safe, happy, and part of the family. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to spend quality time with your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends and for walks, drop-ins, or playtime during weekdays after work hours. Your pet’s routine and comfort are my top priority, so I make sure to adjust my schedule to meet their needs. I have a secure fenced yard and two friendly dogs who love making new friends. Safety is always my first priority, so I supervise playtime closely and can crate your pup if needed. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing a safe, loving, and structured environment so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.

Sarah is a wonderful sitter! Booked her for two drop-ins with walks and my dogs absolutely loved her. One of my dogs is a little older and requires medication and she was very gentle getting her to take it. She’s very communicative throughout. Absolutely recommend Sarah!

About: I have worked for about 6 months in a doggy daycare facility, where I was able to enjoy keeping our customers fur babies happy and safe. Before that I was also volunteering at a private doggy daycare facility in Ireland, where I spent a few months taking care of all kind of dog breeds. In addition my husband and I welcomed two puppies beginning of last year. Meanwhile they are both about 1 year, so if your pet should stay with us, they will have lots of play time with them :) I'm currently taking this semester off, so I have lots of free time to spent with your loving fur babies. I'm available most of the time, so just sent me a message. I will follow all rules and instructions you give me regarding your pet, anything outside of your guidelines, I will treat your pet like I would want someone to treat mine, with love and care.

I can't say thank you enough to Makaila for being so warm and welcoming especially for my first time using Rover. I was very anxious about a stranger being in our home visiting our 13y/o female Keeshond but I also couldn't imagine her being around a bunch of strange people and other dogs like what you'd get at a kennel/boarding house. Makaila was so patient with all my questions, concerns and requests. And my dog liked Makaila instantly at our meet and greet (as did my cats and 5y/o son!) I highly recommend her services to anyone. I know we look forward to having her care for our pets in the future.

About: I have taken care of a variety of animals my entire life growing up on a farm. I have been a Licensed Veterinary Technician for 24 years. I work part-time remotely and part-time in a vet clinic. I am looking to supplement my income while still working my current part-time jobs. I work Monday through Wednesday remotely. Then I'm working Thursday and Friday in a Veterinary Hospital. I'm mostly available Friday night through early Thursday morning. I have 4 dogs, 2 outdoor cats, 2 horses, and 15 chickens. I can easily separate dogs as needed with a secure large backyard. Our entire property is 5 acres completely fenced and cross fenced. My husband can easily take care of our animals if I'm away from the house.

Sidney was absolutely great! It was my first time using Rover and also the first time leaving my cat alone for so long. She made everything as smooth as possible and stress free, I was able to go on my trip knowing my cat will be taken care of. She provided regular updates and was very responsive to any questions I had. Upon my return, my cat was healthy and happy as ever. Definitely booking Sidney again if and when I need to leave on another trip!

Lisa definitely lived up to the other glowing reviews. She visited our house daily to feed, water and take care of the litter box for our two cats. She is reliable and even made friends with our often-shy Siamese kitty. We appreciated the daily pictures and reports cards while we were away on our week-long trip. We would highly recommend Lisa for your away pet-sitting needs! Hopefully she will still be providing here excellent services the next time we take a trip to visit family.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for about six years and have experience with dogs, cats, and other pets. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with pet sitting, feeding, walks, playtime, and daily care. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs, from energetic young animals to older pets that need a little extra attention. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and always do my best to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. My schedule is very flexible and I am generally available at most times. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and last minute bookings whenever needed. Disclaimer: Please note that I do not set my own rates for any additional charges, as those are automatically calculated by Rover based on my base rate. My base rate for house sitting is $40 per night. Additional charges may apply depending on your specific needs; however, these are typically lower than Rover’s standard adjustments. Feel free to reach out anytime, and I’ll be happy to provide you with an accurate, personalized quote for your booking.

About: grew up riding horses and caring for animals of all kinds. Throughout my life I’ve owned and cared for horses, dogs, cats, goats, sheep, chickens, ducks, and other farm animals. Growing up on a farm taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand animals’ different needs and personalities. I also grew up in a family that bred and raised championship-line German Shepherds, giving me experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I currently own a German Shepherd and understand the importance of exercise, structure, consistency, and plenty of love and attention. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, playtime, feeding, medication, or just companionship while you’re away, I will care for them as if they were my own. I am a stay at home mom at the moment, with one baby and one dog. I am in school for personal training and I go to the gym in the morning, walking and caring for dogs will get me out of the house and around animals I love. I currently have a German shepherd who gets let out as often as he wants, I also take him for 30-60 minute walks a day, I will care for your pets as if they are my own. And respect how you want them cared for.

Sara was incredible! She went above and beyond any expectations for a drop-in petsitter. She noticed my cat was walking with some difficulty and researched massages that could help her. She spent time massaging Maddie's back and leg muscles and now she's walking with much more ease! She made recommendations for play toys that has given my 12-year old cat some much needed excitement. She sent photos and videos every day of her playing with Maddie, and now I think Maddie missing that time with Sara today! Sara was on time every day and very respectful of our home. We are deeply grateful to have found her and will definitely seek her out again!
