“Ethan is amazing! Hands down best person that could’ve watched Joey! He did everything possible to make sure i was comfortable throughout the day and made sure Joey had the best time under his care. He ran with Joey when he wanted to sprint, allowed him time to play outside and sniff around, made sure he ate, etc. I couldn’t be happier.”
“Jessica was great. Thank you.”
“Michael was fantastic with our 3-month-old puppy! From the very first meet and greet, it was clear that Atlas adored him and felt comfortable right away. Michael genuinely cares about learning each dog’s personality and providing the best care possible. Leaving your pup behind can be stressful, but we had peace of mind knowing Atlas was in good hands. Even when our flight got delayed, Michael was flexible and super accommodating. Thank you!”
“Sharon is fantastic. She took such great care of Maisy while we were away for a couple of nights. She sent lots of pictures and we could tell our pup was in good hands. Maisy absolutely loved her! We’ll definitely be reaching out again if we need a puppy sitter in the future.”
“This was our first time leaving our dog with a sitter and it was such a positive experience! Natalie was AMAZING! It's clear how much she loves animals. She was able to keep our anxious dog calm and distracted while we were away. She kept us informed and sent pictures regularly. We will absolutely call on her again to care for our dog!”
“Amazing! Lauren took such good care of my fur babies while I was gone, and gave me peace of mind knowing someone trustworthy was home with them!”
“Antonia was outstanding! We knew ahead of time our fur babies were in great hands and we were not disappointed. Antonia was in contact with us, sending photos and updating us along the way. Vacation was much more relaxing knowing our dogs were happily in their home being loved on. Such a great find for our family!”
About: I happened to work as Sales & Social Media Coordinater for a dog training school a few years back, and that experience changed my whole outlook on how we care for our pets! The dog trainers I created content for taught me about positive reinforcement and reward-based methods in the process. Since moving to a different field I’ve used those skills to handle, walk, and petsit every animal from bearded dragons to cats on the side in a way that’s fun for everyone involved. Animals are my happy place & I’d love to share that joy with your family! I work 9AM to 6:15PM most days, so it’s very easy for me to take a lunch break (ESSEX COUNTY ONLY for afternoon Drop Ins due to my job location) and drop in for your pet as well as morning or evening walks. It’s also no problem for me to house-sit and commute to work from your location. I’m very flexible - please contact me to find a schedule that works for you! I do not offer boarding services in my own home at this time, but I will always make sure I leave my client’s home as I left it when I visit and care for their beloved one 🐾
About: Hey! My name is Cayla. I have a 4 year degree in Animal Science from the University of Rhode Island. I am currently pursuing another degree in canine training in hopes of exploring therapy training in the future! I have grown up with dogs and cats since I was little and have always loved and respected animals of all kinds. Ive cat sit multiple times for a client who is in a different state and I have dog sit for many neighbors a couple times too! I just moved to Grapevine not long ago and I am looking to adopt my own fur baby soon! I am currently working on my dog training degree. I am home at my apartment a lot or at the coffee shop working. This comes with lots of free time to spend extra hours caring for your pet! I love spending quality time with every pet and ensuring that they are safe and having fun! I will be happy to send picture updates of your baby as we hang out and let you know how their day went! I will ensure that I am reachable if you need me, and will respond to inquires within the hour.
“Meghan was so sweet to my separation anxiety pom while we were at a wedding, staying in a hotel. The night before she had cried for 4 hours while we were at the rehearsal dinner and the hotel sent us a note that told us if it started again they'd require removal of our pup. So we hopped on Rover and asked Meghan to step in with just hours before she'd need to come. She saved us! And with Meghan our pup felt so at ease, she was quiet and played with with her toys (thanks for sending video! It made my husband feel okay to relax at the wedding). Yay!”
“My husband and I recently had a 5 day trip planned and were struggling to find care for our 6 year old dog and our young puppy ! I was super anxious about leaving them for the first time but after meeting with Jessica and Guillermo I immediately felt at ease. Jessica was super communicative and sent lots of pictures throughout the day of our pups! I never had to guess what they were doing and both the pups had a blast! Jessica was also very respectful of our home, we came home to everything clean and put together just how it was before we left. Our puppy is a huge chewer and she ended up chewing a little bit of our carpet, Jessica immediately informed and showed me, and it was wonderful to have someone so transparent and honest about anything they happened while we were gone. We will absolutely be using them again for our next trip! (As long as they’ll have us) haha.”
“Ryan was prompt, courteous and took great care of our dog Duke while we visited family out of state for a weekend. Duke immediately loved him and we felt at ease leaving him in Ryan’s care. We highly recommend Ryan and are looking forward to booking him again in the future!”
About: I've had dogs and cats all my life, and I really miss having that kind of companionship. My last dog passed away last year, and while I'm not ready for a new pet just yet, I’d love to spend some time with some sweet animals while you’re away. I'm currently working full-time but will have more time for pet/home care during the summer months once school is out. I am also available during school and holiday vacations. I can let your dog out in my yard on a leash. Dogs that are boarded at my home are allowed on the furniture and are welcome to sleep in my bed. This was always a big thing for me when looking for care for my dog while on vacation because many people do not allow dogs on furniture or in beds.
“Emily did a wonderful job taking care of my dog! She was so communicative and sent me pictures throughout her stay. She was professional and well prepared with questions to ensure she had all the information she needed to take care of my dog. I HIGHLY recommend Emily for dog walking/dog sitting and I can’t wait to use her again in the future.”
“Jesse was great about house sitting with our two big dogs!!”
“Taylor was absolutely great!! This was the first time we were leaving our dog, Hazel, overnight and I was admittedly nervous...until we met with Taylor?. Hazel took to her almost immediately and that sealed the deal! After talking with her and getting to know her a little, we were able to go away and enjoy ourselves knowing Hazel and Maisy(our kitty) were in good, capable hands and we came home to 2 happy, well-cared for babies!!?? We will most definitely hire Taylor anytime we need a fur-babysitter in the future!!??”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and have spent a lot of time dog sitting for friends and family. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just providing loving companionship, I treat every dog like there my own. I’ve had experience with all types of dogs and would love to help out!! I'm currently a college student and will be home for the summer with a very flexible schedule. I have plenty of free time and can usually help out whenever needed. Since my summer plans are very flexible, I’m able to adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs. In my home, dogs are part of the family. We stick to a consistent routine. Walks three times a day, feeding in the morning and evening, and lots of quality time when we're home, which is most of the time. Play is a big part of our day, especially with toy-loving dogs! I provide a safe, loving, and attentive environment, and I extend that same care to every dog I look after.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I had a black lab growing up and now have a labradoodle. I helped to train the labradoodle as we got him as a puppy. I love taking him on walks and hikes, I even taught him to play football and hockey with me. Teaching dogs and seeing them being happy is one of my favorite things, because there is no other joy like a dog. I will make your dog feel welcomed and loved and we will work to form a bond like no other. I am a college student on summer break. I am generally free during the week and most weekends. I am pretty flexible, if a time you need is not available please reach out to see if we can work something out for your needs. I have a big fenced in yard with lots of good sniffs. I have a labradoodle that won’t mind being crated if your dog wants some 1 on 1 time. To add, we have lots of hiking trails around that my dog enjoys and I am sure yours would too.
About: I cared for my dog for 13 years. I adore all animals, love walking and playing with them, and treat every pet like they're family. I'm a grad student starting an internship soon, so my schedule may shift-but mornings currently work best and I'm happy to be flexible when possible. I'm currently offering drop-in visits and dog walking. I make sure [ets feel safe, get plenty of attention, and follow any routines or instructions you provide.
About: Hi! I am a single cat mother currently, and work from home most days. I love all animals and love snuggles, so what else could you need in life! Pet care can work into my weekly schedule as I work M-F, or daily! I have most evenings to myself, unless a one off work event pops up. I plan on fostering a loving environment, and bringing my A game to any pets I watch. I know how hard it is on some animals to be left for even a a day, and sometimes they just need extra love!

19. Julia B.
“Julia is my daughter and loves dogs more then anyone I know! We had a Puggle named Maddie for 13 years and they were attached at the hip. As all parents do, I had my reservations about getting a dog thinking I would have sole responsibility of taking care of her. To my surprise, Julia stepped up from day one taking care of her, feeding and bathing her and walking her daily. She would often bring her to a Natirar, which is a beautiful park near our home, for special walks and to socialize with other dogs. It was their special activity and they both really enjoyed it. Julia was amazing with Maddie and took her responsibly very seriously and loved her unconditionally. When Maddie passed away a year ago, she was devastated but realized that she had a real gift bonding with dogs and they, with her. Julia is kind, loving, responsible and hardworking, I think she would be an amazing addition to the Rover community!”
20. Kristen J.
“Kristen is a fantastic pet owner and always goes above and beyond! When she watched my dog she stayed in frequent communication and provided updates and pictures. She’s always buying new treats and toys for her own cat, and is clearly willing to prioritize the needs of the animal. Highly recommend!”
