“Jack and Kate housesat for us while we were gone for a week. It was our first time having sitters home with our two dogs while we were gone, and it was a great experience. Jack communicated with us frequently, sending photos and letting us know how the dogs were adjusting. One of ours can get pretty anxious, and Jack and Kate went above and beyond to make sure he felt safe, comfortable and happy.”
“Kristen was the best dog sitter we’ve had! She went above and beyond to care for our sweet boy and watch over our house too. We were able to enjoy our time away and know that he was well cared for. We greatly appreciated it. Will definitely book again!”
“Kristen is the best!!! She took care of our dog and two cats for a week and sent great pictures and updates to give us peace of mind the whole time. She was responsive and quick to reply, asked follow up questions, followed our pets’ routines, and gave them so much love and attention they didn’t even seem like they had missed us! She truly went above and beyond and we are so grateful to have found her!! We absolutely recommend her for any of your pet sitting needs.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I was a veterinary technician for 20 years before I became a stay at home mom to my daughter, Jordan I love this opportunity on Rover, because it joins my two favorite things—animals and the outdoors. This is a great way for me to teach my daughter animal husbandry. I am a stay at home mom so my schedule is flexible. My daughter usually tags along with me. She is also an animal lover. I currently do not own any pets so I am free to take care of other animals. If I need to check on an animal, I usually spend about an hour with them. (Letting them out, feeding and watering, snuggling). If I am walking, I will walk for an hour. Or an agreed time frame.
About: Pet loving family with two adults who work from home and have a fenced in yard. We are about half a mile from a dog friendly beach. Happy to take dogs and give them a little oceanside retreat 😃 Dogs can go in and out as they please into our fenced in yard. Happy to take them on walks down to the beach if that is desired. We work from home so your animal will have plenty of company throughout the day. We do not have any other dogs or cats in our home.
“Ashley was excellent with our dog and two cats! We have a lot of personalities in our house and she handled it so well. She sent lots of photo updates and was conscientious about the care of my pets. I really appreciate the wonderful care she provided and will be reaching out to her again! Thanks so much!”
“James was amazing! He went above and beyond and his son taught us a new trick, that we have been working on with our pup! Would absolutely have James watch our pup in the future!”
“Ally did an amazing job caring for Rosie! She was very attentive and provided many photos and updates. I would highly recommend her and will definitely be reaching out in the future!”
“Justina was really wonderful. 5 out of 5 stars on everything... communication, conscientiousness, cleanliness, loving and caring for my dog, and willingness to do anything. Highly recommend!”
“Gracie was able to help out last minute with our dog who requires a lot of eye drops. She came multiple times a day and was patient and gave our dog (and cats!) the care they needed. She responds quickly and sends lots of updates which we really appreciate! We will be having her back!”
About: I love to make sure your babies are happy, safe and comfortable so that you can enjoy your time away without worry! FaceTime, texts and consistent communication is what makes me your best choice! Former special educator, patience is my virtue! Weekday social worker, so I’m off on weekends routinely, which coincides with families wanting some getaway time. Occasionally available weeknights for walks and drop ins. Weekends are more flexible, and I’m usually available AM/PM or both. Looking to begin boarding in the Fall 2025 Primarily, I can come to your house for care. Occasionally, happily ready to provide care in my home for dogs on weekends. Walking trails and small yard. Other dogs are plentiful here, I will always keep your dog leashed at all times. I’m not against an occasional pup cup trip but have also respected gluten free diets as well.
About: I was a zookeeper for 17 years and have had my own pets for 20+ years. I have experience with animal behavior, puppies, older dogs, cats, and everything in between I am seasonally employed and looking to fill some gaps during the off season. I have my own family obligations, so the flexibility of Rover works well for me. I have a large private yard with lots of woods on a dead end road. I'm happy being outside and used to working in all types of weather.
“Brittany did an amazing job watching my two Shih tzus. They are older and need extra care, and she provided with ease. She gave lots of great updates and the house was in perfect condition when we got back. You can tell she is a true animal lover and very responsible too. Thank you Brittany!”
“Teresa is an amazing caretaker. Our dog has a heavy background and it her takes a minute to warm up to new folks. Teresa is calm, patient, and loving. We had an unexpected event to attend and we appreciated that she squeezed us in without much notice. She took time out of her day to meet Honey before we left for the weekend and we immediately felt at ease and knew Honey was in responsible, good hands. We will definitely book Teresa in the future and recommend her to friends.”
“Christine was such a caring and responsive sitter! She met with me and Ajax in advance, got to know his quirks. Then, when she was sitting for him, she was able to tell when he was feeling on edge and she was so calming and patient with him! It was really wonderful. I appreciate her communication and clear sweet demeanor with him and her other pups! She took great great care of Ajax! I felt total trust.”
“Tati was amazing! Benji took to her kind playful personality immediately. She sent us pictures while they were hanging out. I knew he was in good hands! We will definitely contact her again!”
About: I have taken care of 4 dogs at once for three days. Two who are sisters, and very energetic puppies. I have that high energy, but know how to be neutral too. I'll send photo and video updates...except of the ones where I am singing and dancing to my own music, which are sings about your pet. What can I say? Feeling inspired! I work full-time during school hours M-F, until anywhere between 3:15 and occasionally 5. I am available M-F 4pm-9:45pm, and if you're nearby I can house and pet sit overnight! I am very affectionate and love taking photos and videos of the pets I take care of. I always send them to the owner as I know how much it meant to me, when my cat was alive. Communicate safety rules with owners prior to pet sitting, and making sure I know where everything is located, such as, food, leash, vet phone, medications

Carys did a fantastic job sitting our cat for 10 days! She has an intuitive way of communicating with animals that came across during our first meeting and reassured us that he was in safe hands. She also left our house spotless and clean which was a lovely touch after a long journey home. Couldn't recommend her enough!!!
