About: I have enjoyed taking care of dogs and other pets from a young age. I like getting to know the unique qualities of each animal and enjoy providing an enriching environment full of activities for the active dog, or a quiet, calm space for the pets who take more time to settle in. Caring for, and socializing, puppies over a summer was one of the most memorable pet care times, as a family member was preparing to find homes for a litter. I'm currently off work for the summer and have lots of flexibility to care for your pets for overnight stays, walks, or drop in visits to your home. I have a fenced backyard and a park across the road with lots of walking trails around to accomodate all the needs or your furry friend. We do also have 1 friendly cat in the home.
“My experience with Shelby watching my pup Lexi was absolutely great. I was nervous about having someone watch her and I immediately felt comfortable at drop off with her set up, her pets, her communication and her openess to a full energy pup. The pictures and message updates really helped and she even worked on a new skill with her. I was very happy with her services and will recommend her and use her again for sure:)”
“Lisa was great She gave our Mackie a warm family atmosphere in her home and her dog and ours got along so feel it was like they were related. I have a feeling she spoiled him during his stay. She sent us pictures that prove this. Thanks Lisa and I would highly recommend her”
About: With over 15 years of hands-on experience working with animals, I bring a calm, confident, and knowledgeable approach to every pet in our care. I am an experienced Rover pet care providers and share the same dedication to providing safe, reliable, and personalized care for every animal I meet. My background includes professional dog handling, dog training, and dog walking for a company, giving me experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I have extensive experience caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, and other small furry animals, allowing me to confidently meet a wide variety of pet care needs. I am comfortable with feeding routines, enrichment activities, habitat maintenance, and administering medications when required. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I am trained in dog CPR, and I prioritize safety, structure, and positive reinforcement in every interaction. Whether your pet needs a reliable walker, patient caregiver, or someone who understands behaviour and individualized care, I tailor our services to fit their unique needs. Animals aren’t just a job for me—they’re my passion. I genuinely love building trust, providing enrichment, and ensuring every pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. We offer flexible, around-the-clock availability to meet your pet care needs. Whether you need early morning walks, midday drop-ins, evening visits, overnight care, or last-minute bookings, were happy to accommodate a schedule that works best for you and your pet. I understand that every household runs differently, and pets don’t always stick to a 9–5 routine. That’s why I make myself available all hours of the day, including weekends and holidays, to provide consistent, reliable care when you need it most. Your pet’s routine, comfort, and well-being remain my priority, no matter the time. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets in both my home and my client’s home. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any medical or behavioral needs to ensure consistency and reduce stress. I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-safe environment, closely supervise interactions, and follow feeding, exercise, and medication instructions exactly as provided. In a client’s home, I respect your space while keeping your pet’s routine as normal as possible — including walks, playtime, enrichment, and quiet rest. In my home, pets are treated like family, with a secure environment, structured care, and plenty of attention. I also monitor for any changes in behavior or health and communicate updates so you always feel confident and informed while you’re away.
“My dog never likes kennels or being boarded, ever. But she seemed to really like Jessica's! Jessica accepted our last minute request, and we are glad she did, as we have now found our go-to boarding place. Her dog seemed calm and gentle, which is exactly what our dog needed. I would definitely recommend Jessica.”
“Dana and Robert were the perfect sitters and Rosie made a new friend with their Lab, Diesel. They were flexible and accommodating and great with Rosie. They sent lots of updates and pictures. Such a great experience for us!”
“Esten and family were sooooo good with Cooper! They made sure he was super comfortable at all times - even through the fireworks and thunderstorms. He was very well taken care of! Highly recommend them.”
“Marie was absolutely wonderful with Daisy over the weekend! She’s clearly very knowledgeable about dogs and kept me in the loop with evening updates, which I really appreciate. Daisy got lots of attention and exercise and was well cared for. I also really valued the training tips Marie shared and the time she took to explain things. Soo helpful. I felt completely at ease. Daisy was in such good hands. Highly recommend Marie to anyone looking for thoughtful, reliable pet care!”
“Alessia took amazing care of our girl, Violet! She got along so well with her dog, and we loved receiving photos and updates throughout the stay. It gave us so much peace of mind. We truly appreciated everything and would highly recommend her!”
About: I've taken care of dogs for more than 20 year's . I know how to take care of a senior dog and a puppies too. I am not working. My husband is not working too. We can take care of pets all times. I or my husband , somebody every time home I like to walk and to play with dogs. We have big living room to play with dogs. I take pictures of the dogs every day and send to the pets owners
“Awesome! Couldn't say enough good things about her as she is Amazing!!! Even got our dog to eat which is a challenge when she's away from home. Martha keeps us updated with lots of pictures and videos! She is such a kind and caring person and took wonderful care of our fur baby, I would highly recommend!”
“Graham was amazing… our pug Frank was well taken care of! Graham took the time to send pics and updates to us regularly to let us know how Frank was doing. We would absolutely take Frank back again!”
“We had an exceptional experience with Janine! It was our first family vacation leaving Ollie with someone other than family, and she took care of him like he was her own. The daily updates was a perfect amount of communication. She tolerated Ollie’s quirks (very food motivated) and allowed him to keep the cat. I would highly recommend Janine and we’ll be using her again in future!”
About: As a lifelong dog lover, I helped raise my childhood dog from puppyhood through their senior years, giving me firsthand experience with dogs of all ages and energy levels. Since I work remotely, I've also had the pleasure of caring for dogs for family and friends, and I always enjoy having a four-legged coworker during the day. My flexible work-from-home schedule allows me to give your dog plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. I'll treat your pup like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I work remotely in a flexible role, which allows me to easily adapt to your dog's regular routine and needs. Whether your pup is used to scheduled walks, specific mealtimes, frequent potty breaks, or extra playtime, I'm able to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. Because I'm home during working hours, your dog will have plenty of companionship, supervision, and opportunities for exercise, enrichment, and affection. My goal is to make their stay feel as comfortable and familiar as possible while you're away. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. I live on a quiet one-acre property in the countryside, which makes walks and outdoor time easy and enjoyable. I'm also within walking distance of a great local park that dogs love exploring. My home is a spacious bungalow, so there's plenty of room for your pup to relax, play, and make themselves comfortable. Since everything is accessible on the main floor, it's also a great setup for senior dogs or those who aren't fans of stairs. If your dog is crate-trained, I have lots of space to accommodate their crate as well. I know every dog has their own routine and personality, so I'll do my best to stick to what they're used to—whether that's specific mealtimes, regular walks, play sessions, or just lots of attention and cuddles. My goal is to make sure your dog feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away.
“Dan and Cassandra took amazing care of our 2.5 year shih tzu Reese for a week. Reese was welcomed warmly to their house and he clearly had fun with their dog Kit. I felt at ease knowing that our fur baby was in a safe and comfortable home while we were away. A big thank you!”
About: I’m an active dog lover who spends my days walking my own energetic Blue Heeler, hiking local trails, and heading to the beach. I offer reliable dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting with plenty of attention and care. I am home weeknight evenings and available all days on weekends. In summer I have full availability to meet your pets needs at any time! I can also offer training and enrichment if requested. My own dog can be slow to warm up to new dogs, but we have a large home and are happy to keep her fully separated for safety and comfort whenever needed - although she would love to play once comfortable. Your pet will get personalized care in a calm, loving environment! I am currently working full time as a teacher but I am home most days by 4:30pm. I have full availability to be home and care for your pets during the summer. I have a large home with plenty of space for your dog to run and play. I have my own dog who takes a bit of warming up but then will keep your fur baby company! I have an unfenced yard with a leash for potty breaks but can also go for lots of walks. I am happy to crate your pup if they are crate trained. I can offer training and enrichment as requested!

Highly recommend Anhi! She’s very caring, sent me regular updates and took good care of our senior dog Bella. She is on a special diet and has many quirks for senior lady that some may not wish to handle. Anhi fit her schedule around our last minute booking, shifted things around to accommodate us and took great care of Bella. We’re so thankful and would use her services again! Highly recommend!
Sheilagh and Teresa are the absolute best!! They have had Myah in their care for over 3 weeks while I was out of town for my Dads funeral. But other things cane up..I would message them and they always had room for Mysh to stay. They treat her like family. I am sent pictures and messages daily. They take her for daily walks. Back yard fun with the pool to keep them cool and the front yard where Myah loves to people watch. She gets to socialize with other dogs and humans. Myah sleeps on the bed with her blankets. She is so loved and i dont have to worry about her. They go above and beyond. They pick up food as she was running low. Also they got a urine sample, which I was unable to and took it to my vets. I was so grateful and appreciative for them doing that for me. As soon as we pull up Myah cant wait to jump out of the car. That is how I know she loves it there.
Loghan had our 2 dogs for 2 full days and an overnight. They came home relaxed, happy, and tired - they had fun! Loghan provided them with very comfortable accommodation, plenty of space to play and relax, and he gave them walks and lots of attention. We can definitely recommend Loghan for quality dog care.
Patricia provided excellent care for my two cats for 5 days. She sent many daily updates, including photos and videos of the cats. I could tell right away that she was very attentive to their needs, and helped them feel at home in their home away from home. She played with them often, and encouraged them to feel comfortable in her space. She's incredibly knowledgeable about cats, and it's clear that she really enjoys spending time with them. It was my first time leaving my cats with someone else overnight, and I would absolutely do it again.
Fanta had a fantastic day with Loganne. I received picture updates and messages throughout the day which was awesome and reassuring. Fanta looked happy and was so comfortable she curled up and went to sleep. Would definitley recommend Loganne and will reach out again in the future. Drop off and pick up were quick and simple. Thank You Loganne!
Ellie instantly bonded to Rojina ( Seyyedehhosna) which put us at ease. Her daily updates including pictures showed us how happy she was and the excellent care she was receiving. Rojina's love for all animals is very evident and we would definitely recommend her to other pet owners.
Christine is a very warm, very friendly caring person and it was obvious from the moment she met our two dogs they would be in wonderful hands with her! One of our dogs is very shy, yet she took to Christine very quickly. Their home is perfect in terms of the layout and with a fenced back yard. Christine sent us photos over the 3 day period and is very responsive in her replies. One of our dogs is challenged to navigate stairs however Christine had a gate to prevent her from going up the stairs and potentially hurting herself. We would definitely book Christine again to care for our two dogs!!
Brooke was terrific with our Springer Spaniel. Murphy received lots of attention, many walks and Brooke had the flexibility to spend time with him in the morning, at mid-day and evening. Murphy was very happy and content when we picked him up. I would definitely use Brooke again when needed.
I’m so grateful to have found Vanessa to look after my dog, Kenzo, for three days. She was incredibly communicative and kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me total peace of mind. Kenzo bonded with her right away you can truly tell she’s loving, patient, and understands dogs. She even went above and beyond by offering pickup and dropoff, which was so helpful. I would absolutely recommend Vanessa to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter. Kenzo will definitely be visiting her again!
I would happily ask Rhonda to dog sit for me again (and I plan to!). She spent a week with my dog while I was on vacation and not only took great care of him, but my home as well - she went above and beyond. She was extremely communicative and even sent me photos while I was away and it looked like they had a great time. My dog has some trust issues and Rhonda really managed him well. He seemed to really like her and let down his guard. Thank you so much again Rhonda, you were fantastic! We look forward to seeing you again. :)

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
