About: Hey there! I’ve been pet-sitting friends’ dogs and cats for years. I’m the person at the party that hangs out with your dog near the snacks 😄 Open to overnight stays and also walks/check ins, or local hikes if your pet wants a little adventure. I’m a healthcare admin professional, currently working a hybrid work-from-home schedule. I’m available mid-day through the evenings, and occasionally weekends for overnight stays as well! I am able to travel a bit to petsit your fur friend where they’ll be most comfortable. Can follow any rules you have for your pets, just let me know!
About: I have two years of daily, hands-on experience caring for my own dog, Kylie. She is energetic but can be shy in unfamiliar situations, so I have learned to read a dog’s body language, give them time to adjust, and build trust without forcing interaction. In addition to caring for Kylie, I regularly help care for my friends’ dogs when they are away. This has given me experience following different feeding, walking, playtime, and bathroom routines and caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I am patient, attentive, and careful about following each owner’s instructions. I will treat your dog with the same care I give my own and provide regular photo and message updates while you are away. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I am able to plan my day around pet care and provide consistent attention rather than rushing between visits. I am generally available on weekdays for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening care depending on the booking. I will confirm my availability before accepting each request and make sure I have enough time to follow your pet’s usual feeding, walking, playtime, and bathroom routine. I provide care in my client’s home, where pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment. Before the booking, I prefer to have a meet and greet to learn about each pet’s personality, routine, care instructions, and any special needs. I carefully follow the owner’s directions for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication. I pay close attention when entering or leaving the home and always check that doors, windows, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure. I will never let a pet off leash or introduce them to unfamiliar animals without the owner’s permission. I respect my client’s home, keep the pet’s space clean, and maintain their usual routine as closely as possible. I also provide regular photos and updates and will contact the owner promptly if I notice any unusual behavior or health concerns.
“I feel completely at ease leaving my fur baby with her, knowing Mochi will be cared for with love and attention. —Mochi adores her, and it’s clear Shirley treats her like one of her own.”
“Rudy had a wonderful day with Thiago. He came back well card for, exercised, and happy. Thiago was great about sending photos and videos. Highly recommend Thiago as a dog sitter!”
“Yijiu was so great to work with. She was able to take my last minute request to host Sunny for daycare. She was very communicative and sent pictures throughout the day to keep me updated. Would absolutely trust her to watch Sunny again.”
“I always know our dog is in good hands with Stephanie! I appreciate the very clear communication throughout including photos which are always reassuring to see given our dog has a history of anxiety. Love seeing her happy and snuggled up!”
“Anna was amazing! Her communication was very quick and clear. She sent me tons of pictures throughout the day and made me feel very comfortable. Leaving my two-year-old dog with her for the day. She was super flexible and pick up and drop off time and Rilee just put all of my pet sitting anxiety at ease. I will definitely be using her again!”
About: I am a very responsible person. I am a dog lover. I have dog for almost 20 years. Your dog will be safe and happy here with me. I work at home. I have time to spoil your dog. Your dog will be safe and happy staying with me while you are away. I walk my dog daily. I can take your dog for walk in nice safe neighborhood. Your dog will have a good time with me. As dog lovers passionate about pet care, I have gained hands-on experience raising our dogs and caring for various breeds. I have become adept at understanding the unique needs of many dogs, from training puppies to providing senior care. Exceptional communication skills will provide peace of mind to owners. I always prioritize being responsive and available to owners, keeping them informed and at ease about their pets' well-being.
“Lisa was fabulous! My first time using her and she was great! Lisa took Dexter out for multiple walks and sent so many pictures to keep me informed. Most of all Dexter was so happy. I will be using Lisa in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of domestic animals since I was very young. Animals have always been part of my life, and I truly enjoy caring for them, pets are part of our daily routine. My daily routine already includes caring for dogs. I run a small mobile dog grooming business, so I am used to being around pets every day. I’m also used to taking care of animals since I was young, so feeding, walking, playing, and giving attention to pets fits very naturally into my routine. I live in an apartment, but my complex has a dog park and very dog-friendly spaces. Pets will always receive attention, supervision, and a calm environment. I make sure they are safe, comfortable, and follow the routine provided by the owner, including feeding, walks, playtime, and rest.
“Kim was really patient with Moxie and I and very communicative as well! She went above and beyond my expectations during the care and pick-up/drop-off as well. I cannot say enough praise for her excellent service! :)”
About: I am an IT professional who is VERY passionate about animals 🫶🏻 I even decided to take them off my plate entirely 😅 Working with animals is my form of therapy and a way to exercise. I work from home and pretty much make my own schedule so I am very flexible 🤗 I grew up with dogs, cats and hamsters in the home, and I currently have a dog 🐕, 2 cats 🐈, and a hamster 🐹 I worked for a dog walking company in the past, so I have experience taking care of dogs of different sizes, from Tea Cup Poodles to Newfoundland Retrievers. I also did A Lot of volunteering at no-kill shelters when I was in school. During my Rover ‘career’ I got a chance to learn how to care for other animals: bunnies, parrots and mice😁 I have experience administering medications, including injections (subcutaneous and inter muscular only) PS I take a TON of photos for Rover cards and add notes to them😉 (see examples in my photo gallery) Have reliable transportation (SUV) to take your dog or cat places such as grooming salons, hospitals, parks, etc. Available during weekends and holidays (I’m a hermit😅) If your dog doesn’t mind company, I would bring my German Shepherd. I will, of course, ask you first 🙃 Sharing is caring so I usually bring a wide variety of treats😋 I normally don’t walk more than 3 dogs at a time so that your pets get more attention and love🥰 I shall treat your furry friends same way I treat my own pets and my fur balls are spoiled with love!!! Ultimately, I will strictly follow your instructions. The more details you provide the better care your furry companions gets🙂
“Winnie and Boba are THE BEST!!! 🏆 Winnie accommodated a last-minute request over Thanksgiving weekend so my husband and I could take a day trip. She even offered a meet-and-greet video call beforehand, which really put my mind at ease since it was our second time using Rover for dog sitting. 🙏 Throughout our communications, Winnie was friendly, responsive, and incredibly helpful. My doggo had a blast playing with Boba, and she sent us plenty of photos and videos showing how much fun they were having together. 🦮🐕🦺 When we picked him up, my dog was clearly sad to leave - always a good sign! 🥹🥲😭🫶 We're already looking forward to our next booking. Highly recommend Winnie and Boba, especially if you have a smaller breed that likes to run and play. ✨”
“Marcel was well taken care of with Ivana! If you want a tired puppy this is definitely the place. Ivana was consistent with keeping me posted on how Marcel was doing throughout the day. Very accommodating with time frame as well! Definitely leaving a tip for that helped me out so much! Has spent repeated days with her and everytime was exhausted! Her dog was friendly with our puppy as well, helped with socializing him!”
“Diana was so welcoming and accommodating to Teddy. They have a lovely house with a big back yard that he loved. She was also flexible with seeing whether Teddy would get along with other dogs she was boarding. The pictures she sent me that day made me feel like Teddy was in such good hands. He loved it there.”
“Rosie was wonderful with Stella and listened to all our instructions about food, commands, and little quirks. Our fur baby was so excited to see us after and is now happily resting at home. I think she had a great time with her stay!”
About: Having raised my own puppy and dogsat for friends with anxious pups, I'm well versed in how to provide for a pup's full time needs. I can also provide puppy training in house manners (for example: waiting patiently to be fed, waiting at doors, simple commands). My care and attention to my own puppy, Chef, is full time and I am super excited to share that with your pup. We can go on excursions or hang around the house or play fetch at the dogpark. Whatever your pup is up for. I have a fenced yard and a friendly pup for your pup(s) to play with! And if your pup doesn't want company for whatever reason, I have gates and crates to make sure they are safe and happy in their own space. Feel free to request photos/videos and check in anytime for updates.

Forever patient, kind and gracious to our beloved Piper and our entire family! Lauri allows our lives to have a greater flexibility, calm, and peace than we could ever imagine without her. We pinch ourselves often at the good fortune of having her as a part of our village/pack.
Violet had a fabulous day and came home happy and perfectly tired out from a day of new experiences and friends. We appreciated photo updates of her walking and playing. Excellent communications and initial meet and greet helped us feel confident and comfortable with the entire experience.
Marcel was well taken care of with Ivana! If you want a tired puppy this is definitely the place. Ivana was consistent with keeping me posted on how Marcel was doing throughout the day. Very accommodating with time frame as well! Definitely leaving a tip for that helped me out so much! Has spent repeated days with her and everytime was exhausted!

Casey took such great care of Sopita, we couldn't have asked for a better experience. She was attentive, kept us updated throughout the stay with photos and messages and gave us so much peace of mind. Casey was also very flexible and accommodating with both drop off and pick up times. It was clear she genuinely cared about Sopita and made sure she was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. We would absolutely book with Casey again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a communicative and caring sitter!
We are so happy to have found Camille. She accommodated Luna's stay within a short notice. Luna came back home happy and relaxed. We couldn't ask for more, as Luna can be very shy at times. Communication is great and Camille always send us updates and photos which we enjoy and gives as an extra peace of mind while we are away. Thank you for taking such good care of Luna and we will continue to use Camille's services for sure!

Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
