“Emmerson did a great job with my big Belgian Malinois puppy who can be a lot to handle! He was very tidy and consistently sent updates and was always available to talk to.”


“Rebecca did a 10/10 job! She kept us in the loop and took excellent care of our kitties. Loved the photo updates and notes. She took extra care to make sure our shy cat Toasty also got accomodations to ensure she got her food when she was hesitant to eat where she normally does. Would happily hire again for our future trips!”


“Emily was amazing! She did a great job taking care of our cat and our 4 little foster kittens - she had a lot to do at our house! But she handled it all with ease and everyone loved her. We would definitely use Emily again!”


About: I’ve had pets my entire life! Throughout previous years, I’ve had 2 cats and 2 dogs. Now, I have 2 cats of my own who are my best friends. I am regularly around family and friend’s dogs for walks or play dates. I often watch my neighbors cat and dog when they are at work or out of town. I’m experienced with puppies and kittens, as well as senior dogs and cats. I work from home a few days each week where I am flexible in my daytime hours. I am also available most weeknights and weekends. In my home, I have a fenced in backyard, scheduled automatic feeders, and prioritize health and activity for my pets. In your home, I can feed your pets, take them on leisurely walks, and let them outside to play and go to the bathroom. For cats, I can clean their litter box and give them company or treats inside.

“Anne always does such an amazing job checking in on our cat. Very professional, great communication and a wonderful spirit. Highly recommend.”


“Mark really went above and beyond with our shy little corgi. He made sure she got attention and playtime. She was in such a good mood when we got back you wouldn't have known we were gone almost a week!”


“Our pup Tango enjoyed his visits from Melody, complete with tug and belly rubs! Melody was attentive to his needs, taking care to complete all requested activities (lunch, potty, hang out) while she was there.”


“Anna helped me out super last-minute and was willing and able to navigate several random hiccups throughout my vacation. 100000/10 from both me and my fur babies!! 💛”


“Briana has been amazing to my sweet Penelope! They had an instant connection, and Briana has given me peace of mind that P is taken care of during drop in services.”


“Ciboney is so thoughtful and kind. We asked to schedule a drop in visit before our kitty’s extended stay and she was very accommodating- and so fun to meet! We ended up chatting over some tea. I absolutely trust her with my little one and recommend her :)”


About: Hey there! I've loved taking care of animals since I was a teenager, and I always enjoy having extra fur friends around. Since I work from home, I can give your pups plenty of attention and take them out for bathroom breaks throughout the day. Most days, I take the dogs for a walk at least once or twice, depending on the weather. On weekends, my girl, Lenny, and I love hitting up the nearby dog park to let off some steam and play with other neighborhood pups. I’m excited to provide a safe and cozy home for your furry family members while you’re away. Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to chat! As a full-time remote worker, I’m home throughout the day and have lots of time to check in, play, and give plenty of attention to your pups. Weekends are a mix of fun and relaxation—I love spending time at home with the dogs, and I also enjoy trips to the dog park or running errands for a few hours before returning to relax with them again. I live in a cozy single-family home with my sweet girl, Lenny, an 8-year-old dachshund mix. Our backyard is fully fenced with a sturdy, recently built wooden fence, giving pups a safe space to run, play, and take bathroom breaks. While Lenny enjoys roaming freely when I’m away, I’m happy to adjust to whatever setup makes you and your pup most comfortable. I also have built-in dog gates on hand, perfect for managing those moments when things get a little extra playful! Additionally, I’m experienced with administering medications and providing any special care your pup may need during their stay.

“Great sitter, I will definitely be using Christy for my dog care needs. She is conscientious and caring, and I know Brown Dog was thrilled to see Christy every visit. Christy left wonderful report cards and I truly did not worry about Brown Dog at all while I was out of town!”


“Bec was great! I had her doing drop in visits with my dog for about a month! Was bummed when she moved but now hopefully someone else can get her help!”


“Connie's love for Oreo is so comforting. We love having Connie visit him.”


“Sandy has such sweet gentle energy. My pup loved her right away. She is always right on time and is a great communicator. Extra bonus for me that she has been available on short notice. Would definitely recommend and will be using her often I’m sure.”


“Carolina is beyond professional, compassionate, and thorough - SO thorough! She completely surpassed my expectations as a first time Rover user, and made a very anxious cat/dog lady feel 100% comfortable leaving my home and loved pets in her care. I’m grateful to have met her!”


“Rachel was great! She spent a good time with my kitties, and they seemed to really warm up to her which is usually not their norm. She was communicative and sent pictures which I so appreciate!”


“I’m so glad that I found Amy on Rover. She is very reliable and responsive and the perfect person to help out with my puppy when I have to be gone during the day. Very friendly and great with pets ❤️ We will continue to hire her to take care of Bowie 🐶”


“Jordan took great care of my cat when I was out of town for a week! I appreciate how he had sent many photos each time he dropped by my apartment to visit my cat, and he had excellent communication. I will definitely be reaching out to him again when I'm in need of a cat sitter again :)”


About: Hi there! I'm Mariah, and I would love to give your pup a fun, comfy place to spend their days while you're away. I currently offer doggy day care, drop in visits, and boarding. I look forward to offering house sitting and dog walking (when the weather is warmer). I understand every dog is different, and I'd love to talk to you about yours so I can give them a day tailored to their needs. I prefer a brief Meet & Greet, so we can determine what kind of accommodations your pup might need to stay with me and my family. If they aren't comfortable with my pup, we have the ability to separate the house in two, and I only take on 1 client in house per day so your pup will have all the affection and attention they could want! I work from home full time M-F with my husband and our 2yo Bernese Mountain Dog. My work is flexible, with minimal required meetings/focus time so I'm able to let the pups out any time they signal they need to go, or on a schedule if needs be. I have a fully fenced yard with two trees, a small hill for those private poopers, and loads of room for zoomies. With a security camera covering the whole backyard, I can comfortably keep watch over my pup and guests no matter what the weather and send screenshots or videos of their antics when they think they're not being watched. Inside, I can set up a spacious dog pen, wall off portions of the house with dog gates, or offer a crate should any pups require space for a nap, or time out. Additionally, I will clear all treats and toys with you, because I want to spoil your pup in a safe, healthy, owner approved manner!
