5/5. Kimberley is fantastic. We’ve used her numerous times to take care of our two days and I’ve never had to worry that they are being taken care of and loved. She is an animal lover and it clearly shows. Thank you Kimberley!

Sarah was great with our cat Boops. She even met with us before the date just to be sure she understood how to get in and to meet our cat. We will be sure to use her again in the future!

About: Your dog(s) will be treated as part of the family. They will be inside, but able to go play in the back yard, any time they want. We have a gentle husky. He is kind to both large and small dogs. They will have fun together. You can go enjoy your day, and know your dog will too! I’ve had large dogs my whole life, and feel comfortable with all breeds. My dog is my baby, so I understand how much yours means to you. After working 32 years as a paramedic, I’m now retired. With the exception of a short errand, I will be home at all times. My schedule is very flexible to help you enjoy your time. In our home, all dogs will be inside. They can go outside into a fenced back yard, any time they want to. There is also a heated dog run in the back yard. You can go enjoy your day, knowing your dog is happy and safe.

About: Hi! 🐶 My name is Chloe, and I come from a family of dog and cat lovers. I have a lifelong love for animals and a dream of one day owning or working for a wildlife rehabilitation center. I want to give you peace of mind by ensuring that your fur baby's needs are met with care and compassion every time that you are away. If you own birds, reptiles, insects, or small mammals I'd be more than happy to care for them as well! -Volunteer experience - Big Bear Alpine Zoo, Big Bear, CA HALO Animal Rescue, Glendale, AZ I'm currently in between jobs and have full availability until further notice. 😊 My partner and I share a car for now, so that is the only thing I may need to work around. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I monitor pets closely, keep doors and gates secured, and only use leashes outdoors. I follow all owner instructions regarding diet, medication, and routines. I maintain a clean environment with access to fresh water and a quiet resting area. I will never bring pets into crowded or unsafe environments. I respect my clients’ homes and privacy when providing in-home care. Communication is important to me, so I provide updates and photos throughout the stay or visit.

About: Since I was born there was always a dog in the house. I have grown up with dogs wether they were mine or my other relatives. I have grown such love for not only dogs but other animals as well. I have had bunnies to hamsters to fishes all throughout my life! I just recently moved to the area and while I search for employment, I would love to walk your dogs🥰 I love animals so I thought this would be perfect for me! I do not currently plan to house others animals at my home because I do have two fur babies of my own. I do have a full backyard that is all fenced it though.

About: Hello! My name is Taylor, and I am an animal lover with 15 years of experience caring for my own cats and dogs. I have been walking dogs professionally for about 3 years. I'm offering all services available through Rover (walking, stop-ins, overnight sitting, etc.) to help you and your fur babies! Thank you for taking the time to read about me, and I hope to be seeing you and your pup as soon as possible. :) My work is flexible and remote, so I am available at any time. I can provide all Rover services weekends and weekdays, day and night. I have a fenced patio for fresh air, and an unfenced yard in front of my apartment for relief and play. My senior dog, Bronson, loves to make friends and welcomes company.

Rachel did wonderful job and took great care of our two boys, one being a large Labrador and one being a poodle. The two absolutely loved her and you can see them so happy in the photos she sent. We are so grateful to have found someone so responsible and caring for our pets. Our poodle takes meds and it was no problem for her to administer them. She cared for them as if they were her own. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!

About: Dogs of all sizes and personalities are welcome here—I truly love them all. What makes my care unique is the environment I provide: a fully fenced ½ acre yard with multiple play areas for fetch, running, and exploring. We’re just a short walk from both the village and the lake, which means your dog can enjoy safe, scenic adventures every day. Inside, pups are treated like family with full furniture privileges—whether they want to curl up on the couch, stretch out on the rug, or join me on the wrap-around deck for fresh air and sun. I believe in letting dogs live their best life, both indoors and outdoors. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and special needs pets, so I can adapt care to match your dog’s stage of life—whether that means extra patience with potty training, gentle support for mobility, or a little extra playtime to burn off puppy energy. My approach is always loving, consistent, and safety-first. Your dog won’t just be supervised—they’ll be engaged, cared for, and made to feel at home. Pet care isn’t something I “fit in” around other tasks—it’s my top priority. From the moment your dog arrives, they will be treated like family. I structure my day around feeding times, play sessions, walks, and rest, making sure every dog has the attention and care they deserve. Whether that means extra belly rubs, sticking to a familiar routine, or paying close attention to their unique needs and behaviors. I’m always tuned in to the little things: how much water they’re drinking, how energetic they seem, or if they just need some quiet cuddle time. Because I live in a dog-friendly environment with a large fenced yard and plenty of outdoor space, it’s natural for me to build in multiple exercise and play breaks throughout the day. I’m also flexible, so I can match your dog’s routine as closely as possible to what they’re used to at home. In short, pet care isn’t just part of my schedule—it is my schedule. Your pup’s happiness and comfort are always at the center of my day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my first priority. I provide a secure, fully fenced ½ acre yard where dogs can run, play, and explore without worry. The space is divided into multiple play areas, so I can tailor the environment depending on a dog’s size, age, or energy level. Whether it’s a high-energy game of fetch or a quiet sniffing stroll, every pup has a safe place to enjoy themselves. Inside my home, dogs are treated like family with supervised free roam and furniture privileges—no being tucked away or left alone for long stretches. The wraparound deck allows for safe outdoor lounging and plenty of fresh air, while still keeping pups secure. I build trust by maintaining a calm, attentive presence. I carefully monitor interactions, body language, and energy levels to ensure every dog feels comfortable. For puppies, seniors, or dogs with special needs, I adjust activities and rest times to meet their unique requirements. With me, your dog will be in an environment designed to help them thrive, relax, and feel at home.

Nicole was great! Our cat had a great rapport with her and seemed to eat better than usual when we were gone. Getting the daily reports and pictures was reassuring, too. Next time we're gone, we'll book Nicole again.

About: After many years of asking my dream came true of owning a dog. My first dog, Summer, was an Australian Shepard x Heeler, and boy was she sassy. At the age of 12, I thought I was a dog trainer, and Summer was my first subject. Over the years, Summer and I locally competed and trained in dog agility. Summer inspired me to love dogs, to care deeply, and fall in love with their intelligence and joy for everything. I would be happy to care for your canine companion with this same intention! I am currently on summer break from teaching elementary-aged students, thus I have plenty of time to care for animals. Please let me know how I can fit in with your schedule. I am naturally cautious, especially when it comes to caring for others. I have spent many years baby-sitting, and approach animal care with a similar mentality. That mentality being to be safe, patient, and kind.

About: I have been a dog owner for 15 years. I also took in my father's dog when he passed away. I have experience caring for my own dogs, and petsitting (caring for) those of others, both in my home, and in their own homes. Petsitting has included housesitting, and tending to pets' medical needs at times, such as giving and applying medications. I am very flexible with availability, and have the summer off. I will love and cuddle with your pet(if that is what they enjoy). I can run with your dog, if you desire, or treat an elderly or delicate dog, gently, and with extreme care. Your pet will be very well cared for whether it be for a short time, or several days.

Such an amazing pet sitter. So attentive to the needs of my four cats and so loving. Her communication was awesome and she left the house so clean. I would recommend her 💯!!!!! She was consistent and came at the same time each day, which helped her build a rapport with my cats and help create a routine for them.
