1. Paige F.

“Paige was great with my cat. I saw from the photos she sent that my cat really warmed up to Paige. My cat usually does not like to be around people she doesn't know. I highly recommend Paige and the Rover.com service.”


2. Karen C.

“Karen is wonderful! She is reliable, affordable, and most importantly WONDERFUL with our Faye girl. Faye is our 7 mo old Frenchton (Boston terrier/French bulldog mix). She loves Karens visits and we hope to be using her for a long time!”

“Jeremy was amazing! Really good with our large dog and great at communicating and putting us at ease. We'll hope to use him again next time help is needed!”

6. Bridgette L.

“Bridgette was absolutely amazing & accommodating for my crazy schedule/situation. She did a great job with my pet in terms of walking, feeding, and giving consistent updates - I will definitely book her again!!”


7. Hillary H.


“Hillary was incredibly helpful while we were away on vaca - she was very communicative, attentive, and went above and beyond to support us when unforeseen circumstances arose. She sent great pics and we can tell our pittie mixes loved and felt comfortable with her! It was great to have peace of mind while our dogs were in her care. Hillary handled our dogs so well, and she alleviated a lot of stress for us.”


8. Chirstina W.


“Christina was awesome! Our high strung dog took to her very well and was very happy when we got home. She was very attentive. She brushed her and walked her, spent time with her and kept her from being lonely. Thanks again!!”

10. Max C.
About: I grew up taking care of cats and most recently a puppy who is now a young adult who can follow a list of basic commands. I love spending time with dogs and walking with them. I would love the opportunity to meet and take care of your dog as if they were my own! I am currently available every day during business hours, some weekends and evenings in advance! I am available to walk anytime past 9am and sit/drop in anytime past 9 am also! Trust and safety are my number 1-2 factors when it comes to being around animals of any kind. For my own fur babies, at my last place, we had a fenced in yard so i would always take my dog outside and never lose sight of her, even tho she is 80+ lbs! When/if i am watching your pets, safety will be my 1 priority and to make sure your pet is comfortable and feeling safe at all times


11. Makenna F.
“Makenna is the most animal loving companion to our Sandy. She is caring, reliable, flexible and ensures that our pup is cared for when we are unable to. If you ever need your 4 legged family member cared for Makenna is by far the best!”


12. Melissa V.
“To say Melissa is a pet lover is an understatement. She has a huge amount of compassion for animals, which is what makes her the perfect pet sitter. As a child she would actually sleep in her bedroom closet with her dogs anytime there was loud thunder or fireworks, just to help keep them calm. She has volunteered at a cat rescue facility, and has taken in abandoned cats until she was able to find them permanent homes. Melissa would be a wonderful pet sitter for your cat, guinea pigs, dragons, etc...”


13. Zoe A.
About: I’ve practically had every animal under the bridge. From Fish, to lizards, rabbits and guinea pigs, and cats and dogs. I was a 4-H kid for a while, so I’m very comfortable with animals. During Covid, my mom and I fostered and recused over 60 cats, making sure they got loving families. We have 8 cats currently, and I own a guinea pig. I’m good with newborn kittens, so if they need feedings, or they need to be stimulated to go potty, I’m good with that! I can also administer medication to pets, whether that be a pill, liquid, or medical creams. I just graduated highschool, and I’m going off to college in August. I have many pets, so I understand the importance of balancing your needs and your pets. All of my pets are indoor cats, but I have taken some cats outside on a leash for supervised visits. When I’ve watched over pets for friends, I always make sure that they are in my line of sight and reach. If they have a fenced in backyard, I still stay outside to watch.


14. Kathie C.

“A literal saving grace!!! Had a last minute flight cancellation and needed to find someone ASAP, she responded within 5 minutes and headed right over. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!!!! ♥️”


15. Leah W.
“Leah watched my pup overnight for 3 nights while I was on vacation. I was very nervous since he is 140lbs cane corso and we just rescued him in January. Leah did such a great job with him! She was very caring and understanding of all my concerns. She made me feel at ease while I was away. My boy was a happy pup when I got home and I can’t thank her enough for loving him like her own! Highly recommend Leah!”


16. Hollis B.

“Hollis was very quick to respond and good natured. I feel safe knowing she’s punctual and experienced with my pups! My pups LOVE HER. Even on the first meeting they just loved spending time with her. She takes fun photos and really gets to know the dog!”


17. Haley A.
“Haley has always been super responsive and is so great with both my dogs. My two pups love when Haley comes to take care of them. I don't know what I would have done without her help with my pups. She has saved my butt time and time again. She is reliable, dependable, responsive and flexible. Would recommend her to anyone for their furry family members!”


18. Julie G.

“Very communicative and friendly. Yadi enjoyed his time with Julie.”


19. Elizabeth B.

“Elizabeth has communicated promptly to messages! When we come home and find our 4 westies happy and non-stressed we know they got a good loving drop in visit. Thank you Elizabeth! We will see you again! Xoxo”




20. Daijanique E.
“Daijanique has been great with my animals. I've trusted her with my fur pets since the first day I met her. She does an absolutely amazing job with walking my dogs. She even does frequent drop ins to check on my dogs for me while I'm at work. She's very trustworthy and I'll always keep her around to care for my furry pets. Thanks so much!!!”
