“Dannie was flexible, kind, and easy to work with. He provided care under unique + high maintenance circumstances where he accommodated 1) the need for flexible timing and location while I traveled to town for work and 2) to care of my dog who requires constant vigilance to manage a subtle injury where inattention could result in immediate paralysis.”

“Rachael was amazing, she did everything we asked and went above and beyond for the pups. Everything ran smoothly and we can’t recommend her enough! Anyone looking for some help with your pups absolutely reach out to Rachael!”

“Simone was very attentive and understanding of my dogs timid behavior and her routine for walks and potty breaks. She provided me with pictures and updates when I asked and was a great person to help take care of Reese during my trip out of town.”

“Alexis was great with the dogs and the house! She sent plenty of pictures, played with the dogs and kept me updated every step of the way. Will definitely use her again!”

About: I am a clinical social worker for children and young adults! My love for animals came from being raised in an animal loving home. I worked in a private vet right after college and have not only prior knowledge from my own family animals but hands on experience in the fields. About 5 years ago I adopted my cat Athena. Im the type of care giver who will make sure not only are your fur babies are loved and safe but that their owners have the sense of security that their babies are in good hands with frequent updates. I have been working with Rover since I was 18 years old! This was my job as a student that I very much loved! Now that it’s been 10 years in the business this job is a passion of mine that fulfills a purpose and only bring me more joy and happiness. I have a job that is flexible with my hours and allows me to work for my clients for hours that are needed. I book clients that I know I will be able to provide exact care they are expecting and asking for. Animals are like children, you always have to be vigilant. Every animal is different, needing specific care that is geared to them. I make sure my clients get attention, love and care.
“Madelyn was communicative, giving daily updates about River while I was gone. She took her on lots of walks and it seems my dog really got comfortable with her and cuddled a lot. I also came home to a clean house and she was respectful of my space while she was there! I am excited to use Madelyn again in the future.”

“Christopher was an amazing sitter for my dog. Very attentive, kept me updated, and kept the place super clean. My dog was still adjusting to his new routine and he kept it up, and kept me updated throughout the stay. Would definitely book him again! Thank you again so much! :)”

“I’ve used Rover more than 20 times over the years, and Rose was by far the best sitter we’ve ever had! She went above and beyond to ensure we knew our pups were in great hands, keeping us updated and handling every detail with care. She not only met all of our requests but exceeded our expectations in every way. Highly recommend!”


“Carissa was super communicative and took good care of my two dogs at my place for a long weekend. I can safely say my dogs were happy and she handled them wonderfully.”

“We had a great experience working with Madalina. Our pup Maya needs a lot of 1-on-1 attention and Madalina was able to deliver. We got tons of updates and photos, and we are grateful someone was able to care for our pup the way she needs. We’ll definitely be asking Madalina to watch Maya again.”

“Victoria was honestly the best! She was so intentional with keeping me updated while we were gone and she took such good care of our two pups for us. It definitely was comforting to know that they were well taken care of and loved while we were away. I would definitely want to use Victoria again in the future!”
“Claire was great with our two pups. She was very communicative and responsive and took great care of our dogs, including our senior who needed extra attention. We would definitely recommend her!”

“Dawn was wonderful! She helped our family out after another sitter canceled last minute. She adjusted her schedule To meet us within a few short hours from our first contact. She then adjusted her schedule, which I am sure made it tricky, to help us in our time of need. And most importantly our pups loved her! ❤️”

“Elyssa is absolutely a fantastic sitter. She watched our golden retriever for the weekend while we were out of town. It was our first time leaving him post moving which always makes me nervous. Elyssa, though, was fantastic. At first contact, she set up a meet and greet to come meet us and Triton to make sure we were a good fit (which I appreciated a ton). It always makes me feel better meeting the person who will be taking care of my fur baby. She is great at communication and responds quickly with any updates. Triton got so much love and pets while we were gone and we were able to not worry of him while being gone. I’m really grateful for how well he was taken care of and the peace of mind we had leaving him in Elyssa’s hands!”

“Brooke did a wonderful job taking care of my dog and home during a May 2026 trip to the beach. Her communications were outstanding and upon return, I could tell that my puppy had been well cared for. I would give Brooke the highest possible rating , 5 STARS for sure. Mitch G.”

“I love when Paula stays with my Boston Terrier (Frank.) I come home to a calm sweet dog who is played out and has been loved. Paula takes super wonderful pictures of Frank happy to be with her. Paula is the best!”

“Melissa is amazing! She stayed with my pup who required extra attention due to his separation anxiety and he’s grieving the loss of his sister of all 11 years of his life. She provided lots of updates during her stay and lots of pictures. Walker looked happy and extremely well cared for in every single one. I was very anxious about leaving him since he required extra attention and is on some new meds but Melissa was wonderful and I never wondered for a second how things were going while I was away. I know we have a new friend who we will rebook with any time. Thank you, Melissa!!”

“Kathryn was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond while taking care of our dogs. Not only did she walk them and play fetch with them every day (which they loved), but she also took the time to clean the entire house and even picked up all the poop in our backyard. I couldn't have asked for a more caring and responsible sitter. Our dogs were so happy, and coming home to such a spotless house was a bonus. Highly recommend Kathryn —we’ll definitely be booking her again!”

Dani is such a great house/pet sitter. This is the second time I was able to book with her, and she takes great care of my animals and my home. My dog occasionally gets ear infections, and she was communicative and supportive when that started to happen in the middle of her stay. She was flexible and waded in to help him feel better. I'm so thankful for her care and attention. I definitely recommend her!

Heather stayed with my dog during an out of town trip and she took such great care of him! She took him on long walks twice daily (longer than any other sitter I’ve used as was evident on his tracking collar step count). I came back to a very happy boy and an immaculate house. I would highly recommend Heather!!

Molly is a wonderful person and dog sitter. She took great care of my dogs and even though they were happy to see me they were calm and happy too so I know they liked her and were well cared for. She was a great communicator and took fantastic care of the house as well. She will be my first choice next time we need a sitter!!!! Highly recommend her!! 5*
