“Veronica watched our cat & dog for 5 days while we were away, and when we come home our animals were SO happy compared to when we board them or hire someone else! She is lovely to work with too. Thank you so much Veronica!”

“Heather was super responsive and set me at ease with my first time utilizing Rover. She was very accommodating and I will absolutely utilize her again for drop ins when I am away in the future. Thank you again Heather. You were the highlight of Fig’s weekend as well!”

“Great communication, went above and beyond, and the animals really seemed to be happy! So easy to work with. I would be happy to have Jess watch my cats again, such a great job!”

“Jason was amazing. I would recommend him as a sitter for your dog, cats and as a chicken checker...lol. Jason took great care of our dog on his drop ins and did a few extras too, like took an Amazon package in. Jason was reliable and had great communication. We will definitely use his services again.”

“Hannah is wonderful! My kitties love her. She is a great communicator and goes above and beyond to keep me in the loop about how things are going. On these most recent visits, my kitties had some accidents due to tummy issues and she kept me informed while also cleaning up the messes with no complaints. We will definitely rebook with her next time we go out of town!”


“Kelly has checked in on my cat, Moe, on a few occasions and he LOVES when she comes to visit! Kelly sends beautiful pictures and very detailed updates of all visits, making you feel at ease when you’re away from your fur babies.😊I highly recommend her for any of your pet-sitting needs!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life. Growing up on a large family farm as a second-generation farmer’s son, I learned from my dad how to read animal behavior, provide attentive hands-on care, and keep every creature safe and healthy. Those early lessons gave me a deep understanding of animals that I still rely on today. Later, my years working as an emergency medical professional on an ambulance sharpened my ability to stay calm under pressure, think quickly, and handle unexpected situations effectively. I bring that same level of preparedness and composure to every dog in my care. I’m home full-time, which means your dog gets constant, attentive supervision and never feels alone. My home is basically a 24/7 dog park: a big, secure fenced backyard for safe free play, nutritious meals, fresh water, cozy beds, and plenty of love and attention throughout the day. My well-balanced pack is led by our nurturing mother hen Hatsy, gentle Koda, and playful foster pup Hudson is social, friendly, and excellent with new dogs. They help guests settle in quickly and feel right at home. I genuinely enjoy welcoming new furry friends and watching them thrive, play, and bond in our little pack. Whether it’s a few days or an extended stay, you can feel confident knowing your dog is with someone who truly loves animals, understands their needs, and is always prepared to keep them safe, happy, and comfortable. I’d love to chat, answer any questions, or set up a meet & greet so you can see for yourself! I’m home full-time every single day, all day, which allows me to provide constant, attentive care for every dog in my home. Your pup will never be left alone and will enjoy around-the-clock supervision, affection, playtime, and comfort. My daily routine revolves around the dogs. We start the day with breakfast and outdoor time in my large, secure fenced backyard, followed by plenty of play sessions, socialization with my friendly pack (Hatsy, Koda, and foster pup Hudson), naps in cozy beds, and lots of one-on-one attention. Evenings wind down with dinner, more yard time or gentle play, and quiet cuddle time. I genuinely love what I do and treat every boarding dog like part of the family. Whether it’s a short stay or an extended visit, your dog will be happily integrated into our 24/7 “dog park at home” lifestyle while receiving personalized care the entire time. I take safety and trust very seriously; your dog’s well-being is my top priority. My home is a calm, clean, and loving environment designed specifically for dogs. I’m home full-time every day, providing constant supervision so no dog is ever left alone. You’ll find a large, fully secure fenced backyard where dogs can run, play, and explore safely. Inside, there are plenty of cozy beds, fresh water, and a structured daily routine with nutritious meals, regular potty breaks, and lots of affection. My well-balanced pack, Hatsy (our nurturing mother hen and pack leader), gentle Koda, and playful foster pup Hudson is friendly, social, and excellent with new dogs. I carefully introduce every guest and supervise all interactions to ensure everyone feels comfortable and safe. With my background growing up on a family farm and years as an emergency medical professional, I’m especially skilled at reading animal behavior, staying calm in any situation, and handling anything that comes up quickly and effectively. I treat every dog like my own and build genuine trust with both pets and their families.
About: My name is Christina and I would love to be your pets home away from home! Our family loves animals and will make sure your pet is well cared for and pampered while you’re away. Our family includes myself and my husband, and our two kids who are 9 and 15. We do not have any pets in our home right now, so your pet will be the center of attention! Please feel free to contact me with any questions! I look forward to meeting your furry loved ones. I’m currently working remote, with one day in the office so I am able to do frequent bathroom breaks and afternoon walks. My husband is able to assist with care on my days in office. I aim to keep to your pets normal schedule as much as possible. I have a fully fenced yard. My kids are 9 & 15 and they adore animals.
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and genuinely enjoy being a calm, caring presence in their day—whether that’s for a visit, a walk, or time spent in my home. I work from home, which means I have a flexible schedule and can give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship. I have a friendly 20 lb doodle named Teddy, who’s great at reading other dogs. He’s happy to play or just relax, depending on what your dog prefers. I also have Violet, my sweet 12-year-old doodle, who has fully embraced her “retired lady” era and mostly spends her days napping in cozy spots around the house. At home, there’s a large, fully fenced yard with shady spots and plenty of space for fetch, sniffing, or lounging. I provide treats (with your approval), playtime, and lots of love. You’ll get photo updates so you can see how your pup is doing and what adventures they’ve been on. I’m always easy to reach if you want to check in. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and visits throughout the day, give pets consistent attention, and adjust timing based on their needs and your preferences. I make sure every pet has fresh water, a clean and comfortable space, and plenty of attention. After walks, I’ll dry off paws if it’s wet outside and check that they’re clean and settled. I follow your routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, playtime, and any specific instructions—so your pet feels relaxed, happy, and at home whether they’re with me or in your space.

About: I grew up with many different animals at home and I loved to take care of them and play with them. I also had dogs and was able to breed and enjoy 12 puppies. I also take care of my neighbors two dogs when they go on vacation or extended weekends. Now I have a Doberman for the last 6 years and she is a smart and loving companion and I trained her to be a service dog. I know how to respond if your furry friend should get sick and have great contacts to a veterinarian hospital. I left corporate world in December last year and are now enjoying retirement. I will have plenty of time to accommodate and play with your furry friend. I have a single family home with fenced in yard to accommodate your dog and to play with Piper, my 6 year old Doberman girl.
About: Hi, I’m Andrea! 🐾 I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 20 years, from tiny kittens to senior pups who need a little extra TLC. I grew up with pets as part of the family, so I know they deserve love, patience, and attention just like we do. I work from home, which means I have a flexible schedule to spend plenty of time with your furry family member. Whether it’s walks, playtime, snuggles, or making sure medication is given on time, I’m all about keeping pets happy, healthy, and comfortable. Friends and family have trusted me for years to care for their pets while they’re away — and I treat every animal like my own. You can count on me for reliable communication, daily updates, and lots of cute photos while you’re gone.
About: I have grown up loving and caring for dogs of my own as well as others. I have always been the person people always call when they have some kind of animal emergency. I absolutely love animals and know a lot about taking care of them and many different types. They will get lots of attention and quality care from me. I will spoil your baby as much as you will let me! I can administer any medication necessary. My dog takes pain meds twice a day so we are already on a medication routine. I have a flexible schedule so I can meet most needs. I keep in contact with you asap if there are any changes that are needed. Now that my dog is getting older we will be lowering the energy levels and sizes, only taking small dogs. I live in a charming small house in the corner of Ferndale and a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. I have a fully fenced in backyard that is about 97% privacy fence. There’s one little corner where my dog can talk to the dog in back through a chain-link fence. Lots of shade and grass
About: My grandmother drilled the importance of treating all life with respect and dignity, and through that I have learned to love all forms of pet-life. I want to ensure that you are at ease when important life events arise, and you need to leave the most vulnerable members of your family. I've been taking care of animals, primarily cats and dogs, since I was 10 and I hope to have the privilege of caring for your pet too :) I work part-time as a barista and spend the rest of my time caring for my own pets, pursuing hobbies of mine, and studying for school. This leaves me with ample time to get to know new animals, their personalities, and to provide them with all the love they desire. A big part of pet-care is communication between 3 parties; the owner, the sitter, and the pet themselves. I'll adhere to any schedules and rules established by YOU, I'll respect the boundaries of your pet, and I'll bring my 100% to be your animals best advocate and friend. Your pet will be supervised all of the time, I'll provide daily update videos in cases of travel, and I may sneak them a treat or two as a bribe.
“Jordyn was amazing. She was communicative, flexible and took the extra steps to ensure my dog Oby was taken care of. She took time out of her day beforehand to come and meet him, learn his routine and provided an unparalleled peace of mind knowing that my dog was going to be looked after while I was gone. I cannot recommend her enough and she will be my first contact for any future trips.”

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for animals with all kinds of personalities and needs! I’ve spent over 500 hours volunteering at an animal shelter, where I walked large, strong, and reactive dogs and learned how to work with dogs with a wide range of behavioral challenges. I also have personal experience managing strong, reactive pitbulls in my own family, so I understand the importance of patience, reading body language, and adapting to each dog’s individual needs. I’ve lived with multiple shelter dogs with behavioral quirks and fostered a shelter dog with behavioral challenges for eight months, giving me experience with the consistency and understanding that some dogs need to feel safe and comfortable. I am also experienced with giving medications. I’m comfortable with dogs who need a little extra patience, space, or understanding, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I also have experience caring for both friendly and more temperamental cats, along with previous pet-sitting experience. Whether your pet is energetic, nervous, reactive, independent, or just a little quirky, I’ll do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else, and I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I give my own! I am a grad student, so my schedule varies from week to week. However, I do my best to be flexible and communicate clearly about my availability. I am happy to coordinate with you ahead of time to find a schedule that works for both of us! When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize keeping them comfortable by maintaining their usual routines and following their owner's instructions closely. I am happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are in good hands while you’re away!
About: I grew up with German Shepherds in my home all my life. I have taken care of dogs/cats since I was a teenager for friends, teachers, and family. Dogs have ranged from Shih Tzu's to Bernese Mountain Dogs. I am very active, so walks and playing with the animals is not a problem. I work from home three days a week, so dog sitting or dog walking fits into my schedule. On the two days I go into the office, I am able to be home by 5:30pm. I am very flexible and willing to work with my clients to ensure their pets are taken care of within the timeframe they need. I will be very attentive to your pets needs when house sitting and walking them. I would provide them with food, fresh water and companionship in addition to taking them for walks and getting them excursive. I love to cuddle and play ball, keeping the pets engaged and distracted from the fact their owner is gone for a short period.
About: Hi! I'm Jenna. I'm reliable, attentive, and I genuinely treat every dog like my own. I've spent a lot of time around dogs with different personalities, from high-energy ones that need a lot of movement to more sensitive or anxious dogs that need a calmer approach. I pay attention to body language and try to make sure they feel comfortable and safe, especially in new situations. I'm pretty active and love being outside, so your dog will get plenty of exercise and attention. I'm also consistent and detail-oriented, so l'll follow your routine and instructions closely. I'll always send updates with photos so you know how things are going. Whether your dog needs a good walk, some playtime, or just someone calm and reliable, l've got it covered. I work part-time so I am flexible with my availability. I control my own schedule and usually can accommodate last minute pet needs. I can also do regular, repeat schedules. I focus on keeping dogs calm, safe, and comfortable by paying close attention to their behavior and energy. I follow your routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, and any specific instructions you have. I’m confident handling strong or high-energy dogs and make sure walks are controlled and structured. I’m also respectful of your home and will always keep things clean and secure. You’ll get updates and photos so you always know how your dog is doing.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Berkley
She’s just outstanding! I have dogs with various medical needs and she makes sure that medications are given in time, helps with ambulation, makes sure both dogs have done their business and gives lots of attention and affection while I’m away. And is also seeing to the needs of my three cats, too! She’s got a lot to take care of every time she comes over to my house and I know everything will be taken care of. I highly recommend her! 😀

Camile did a great job with my three boys (dogs) while I was away on a work trip. She was very communicative and I could tell by her pictures that she was actually interacting and playing with them. I told her she could leave my reactive, shy boy locked up but she removed the gate and gave him a chance to come out on his own. On the second day he did!

Jessica was fantastic with our pup Nigel. He’s a nervous boy and usually takes a while to warm up to new people, but immediately liked her at the meet and greet! Jessica is always quick to respond, a great communicator, and sent detailed notes with cute pictures for each visit. Nigel also has a few special needs/requirements and she was more than accommodating, including giving him multiple medications and keeping an eye out for accidents. We felt super comfortable leaving Nigel in her care. She truly does care for each animal like they’re her own! We would definitely recommend her and will for sure book with her for future trips :)

Kelly has been absolutely wonderful with my pups! She is incredibly thorough, attentive, and genuinely cares about them. I have a lot of specific routines and details that are important to me, and she takes the time to follow every one of them. She is reliable and gives me complete peace of mind knowing my girls are in good hands. I highly recommend Kelly to anyone looking for someone who will go above and beyond for their pets!
Jodi did an exceptional job petsitting for us while we were away for 5 days. She took on a somewhat challenging schedule with three very different pets with different needs. She was timely, reliable, caring, engaging and communicated well throughout the process.
