“Sarah was fantastic! My husband and I have never used rover before so we were a little apprehensive but after meeting Sarah, all of our anxieties melted away. She is friendly and kind and great with all of our animals! She kept great communication of visits and sent of the most amazing pictures of my puppy in the autumn leaves. I highly highly recommend Sarah for any puppy care!”
“Jeanette has been great with communication and adore the pictures she sends! She is consistent which is very important and I needed her last minute, she was very accommodating.”
“She did amazing with our high energy German Shepard, she took time during my dog’s potty break to play with her and tire her out before leaving! We will definitely be contacting Kaitlyn again for our dog!”
“Mariah went above and beyond during the mid day drop in visits with our 12 weeks old puppy, always showing up with genuine care and thorough updates. We will certainly be using Mariah again in the future!”
“Sara and Miles were able to get my dog and puppy playing outside in The rain even though my dogs hate The rain! Very responsive and engaging with my dogs. They took pictures to send me so that I knew the dogs were happy. Will definately book them again 😁”
About: I had the pleasure of caring for and loving my two shelter (or, found outside in the cold) dogs for about 14 years. From puppyhood to senior years. I understand all stages and will meet their needs as required. I am a mom of four very active boys. I work mornings, Monday through Thursday, so I am free in the early afternoon. I am able to make my own schedule around sports, school, doctor's appointments, etc. My evenings are more busy than my afternoons. I will gladly make time during my day for some four-legged, furry friends. I will gladly come to your home to feed, let out, and/or walk your dog when you cannot. We can schedule an initial meeting to familiarize the dog and myself, and go from there.

“Amanda is kind and caring. I trust her to care for my precious pets. We’ve used her services twice and are quite pleased. I highly recommend her. Thank you Amanda/Rover.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: Hi, I’m Clara! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve worked with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from tiny parrots to towering horses—and I’m confident handling everything in between. I have experience with: • Puppies and young dogs (training, socialization, and lots of patience!) • Caring for a dog with frequent seizures and special health needs • Working at a large dog rescue in Mexico, rehabilitating street dogs with behavioral and medical issues of all sizes • Administering oral medications and following detailed care instructions • Senior pet care with extra attention and gentleness (my dog is epileptic so I know how to administer all seizure meds and the full protocol) • Basic training and reinforcing good behavior • Horse care from years of working in barns (feeding, grooming, handling) • Volunteering for a year at a parrot rescue, learning about specialized bird care I’m active and outdoorsy, so I love taking energetic dogs for runs, hikes, or long walks—but I’m just as happy giving older or calmer pets plenty of snuggles. Safety, compassion, and keeping your pets happy are my top priorities, and I’ll always send plenty of photo updates while you’re away. I’m currently completely open and very flexible with scheduling. I’m not working another job right now, so I can adjust to your pet’s exact needs—whether that’s early mornings, late nights, or last-minute bookings. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. In my home, pets must be friendly with other dogs, as I have my own, and everyone’s well-being is a top priority. We have a fully fenced yard for safe play and fresh air, and I love going on regular walks to keep pets happy and healthy. I’m very routine-oriented, so I’ll follow your pet’s feeding, exercise, and care schedule exactly as you request—whether in my home or yours. I make sure each animal feels secure, loved, and stress-free, with plenty of supervision, enrichment, and affection.
“We met with Rachael the evening before her first time sitting with our dogs. She was very nice and seemed excited to doggie sit. I was happy to know that they were not stuck inside all day and that they had a chance to relieve themselves outside.”
“Our dogs love Holly, and we do too! She’s a great communicator, and super reliable. We have two high energy herding dogs, and she keeps up with them just fine! So glad we found her 😊”
About: I have 4 dogs and 4 cats, ranging in age from 1 to 15! I also have two horses (both mares, 4 and 23). I’ve owned dogs and cats all my life. I work from home from 8-5, and am available for pet care before work, at lunchtime, and after work. My work is very flexible and supportive. I have a yard with a pool for the dogs (and humans) with a thicker liner and special filtration system for dog fur. I have an electronic fence and extra collars. Special needs dogs are ok - I have a very old dog (15) and am used to geriatric dog care. I also care for cats and have 4 cats of my own

“Jess was amazing with our 2 pups. We were anxious about them being away from home. But felt great after couple hours receiving pictures that they were doing great. She sent pictures to show how much fun they were having and how relaxed they were. Jess even taught our youngest pup to not be afraid of the stairs. They/we had a great experience with our pups staying for a week with Jess. Thank you very much!!!”
