âI canât thank Ivonka enough for taking the time to watch my cats over the holidays! They all warmed up to her super quickly and I know they were in good hands this week with someone who has an amazing passion of caring for animals. I received lots of photos of them having a fun time playing and eating their meals while I was out of town. I highly recommend her services!â

âJessica was truly amazing! I will definitely trust her again with my fur baby. Thank you so much for being so kind and caring. Dakota seems so happy and well taken care of. đâ

âJanet was so incredibly kind and hands on with my old lady peppers. She was thoughtful and communicated throughout. My 92 yo grandmother was also home and she even went above and beyond in socializing with her during Pinky's visits!â

âMadeline took such good care of my boys. My younger cat is very shy and he even made himself known, which is super rare. Will definitely use her again! Thank you!!â


About: Iâve been around dogs my whole life. Even though Iâve never owned one personally, Iâve always been the first to step into âowner modeâ whenever a puppy or dog needed love, attention, or comfort. Animals have a special place in my heart, and I genuinely enjoy giving them affection, patience, and care. I treat every pet like theyâre my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while youâre away :) Iâm currently working part-time and also in school, so my weekly schedule can vary. However, Iâm typically available on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, and I often have open availability during weekdays as well. Iâm flexible and can usually adjust my schedule to fit your petâs needs. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions closely and keep your petâs routine as normal as possible. Iâm gentle, patient, and very attentive to each animalâs comfort level. I make sure food, water, and potty breaks are handled safely, and I always keep doors and gates secure. I also send updates and photos during every visit so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while youâre away :))
âCheyenne was amazing. She kept us informed all weekend about our boy Finley. She sent pictures and updates with every visit. She was on time and completely responsible for Finn's needs. Finley can't wait to see her again. I would highly recommend her.â

âAmanda has been great very reliable and excellent communication she lets out my dog birdie 5 days a week and itâs such a relief knowing my dog is getting some exercise and attention while Iâm at work. Iâve noticed birdie isnât as hyper when I get home from work I will continue my service with Amanda as long as she is available thanks again Amandaâ


âThis was my first time using Rover, but it was so great to know my dogs were being well taken care of while I was gone! Marie was responsive, conscientious, and helpful. I came home to two happy pups! I will definitely reach out to Marie next time I need someone to take care of my dogs.â
â1st time Iâve ever let someone watch my 15yr old pup and I couldnât be happier! Karlie is so sweet and was very good with Maxi!! I will definitely use her again!â
âBrooklyn was a real hero for me, when I needed a last minute pet sitter. I knew her from outside Rover and she knew my dogs. They warmed up to her right away and I could tell from the pictures they were happy she was there. They were fed, walked, played with and received lots of cuddles.â

âNatalie was great. She truly loves dogs and we are so grateful she was there to take care of Buddy when we were on vacation. Thank you Natalie! Buddy is doing well because of you.â

About: Experience with dogs, cats, and more. Does your pet need medication? Iâm comfortable with giving meds orally, subq and IM. I can also trim nails. Iâll love your fur babies as if they were my own đ Iâve been taking care of friendsâ and neighborsâ pets my whole life. Iâm a stay at home mom of two older teenage boys, so I have plenty of time to spoil all your pets! My schedule is very flexible so I can work around your needs. I have a fenced yard and lots of room to play. I can board your small caged animals in my home. I always send my boarderâs parents pictures and videos of their babies. Communication is key!

About: I have worked at the animal shelter for the past 4 years when home from college and I have 4 dogs of my own at home :) I love all animals especially dogs I have a 9-5 during the week with flexible hours giving me time to care for animals before and after work. I also work remote on Wednesdays and Fridays so I am free anytime those days and weekends to care for animals. I have a fenced in yard and dogs of my own that your dogs can play with. I can also crate your dog or do any other requests that the animal would normally do in their own home.
âNatalie is really great at what she does. She fills me in on what my dog does while walking him and do on⌠sheâs seriously awesome! Flexible and kind. My Bohdi (black lab puppy) lovesssss her!â

About: Hello! I am a very active individual who loves to engage and play with pets. I consider myself an avid runner, and have never shied away from taking pets with me. I am very used to walking and caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes. For daycare, I work from home full time and have a large fenced in yard that all dogs love! I currently have two pets, a 1 year old pup named Vasher and a orange tabby cat named Locke. Vasher is a golden retriever / German shepherd mix who is the best boy. He already weighs over 70 lb! He loves to play, run around, and talk to us with his buttons. He is extremely friendly and loves to make new friends, both human and dog alike. Locke will make friends with any person he meets. I also helped raised my parents dog Leine, who is a 90lb tree walker cooonhound. She is the sweetest pup at 10 years old. I have watched and cared for dogs of all sizes and energy levels, but you can probably tell I have a special place for large playful dogs. If you're looking for somewhere to drop off your dog for the day where they will have a huge yard and a playmate, I'm your guy. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions! I currently work remotely! My schedule is entirely flexible, so I will be able to take care of your pet at any time of the day. If you have a set schedule for walking/feeding/playing, I'll be able to stick to it without any issues. I will care for your pet by paying attention to their needs, whether it be playing, cuddling, or feeding. I will keep them as active as possible, and would be happy to run them around the yard or neighborhood. I am very willing to follow whatever instructions you have for your pet.

Brooklyn was a real hero for me, when I needed a last minute pet sitter. I knew her from outside Rover and she knew my dogs. They warmed up to her right away and I could tell from the pictures they were happy she was there. They were fed, walked, played with and received lots of cuddles.

Grace is awesome! She saved us for a last minute visit for our older dog who needed a midday bathroom break. She came out the night before after working all day to meet us and our pets and go over our pets needs. During the first visit we got a video, photos and report card from the visit. She was very personable and we could tell in the video our pets were excited to see her when she arrived. Just know if you hire Grace, your pets are in good hands.
