About: We've cared for dogs of all sizes our entire lives, from energetic Labs to tiny Poms. I’ve also raised cats and chickens, so I'm comfortable with a variety of animals and their unique needs. I treat every pet like family, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for in my home. I Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home. I'm able to provide constant supervision, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. Pets aren’t left alone for long periods, and their needs are easily integrated into my schedule—making their care a consistent priority. Safety and trust are my top priorities. In my home, pets are always supervised and have access to a fully fenced yard for secure outdoor play. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment and follow any specific routines or instructions you provide. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every animal with the same care and attention I give my own. I monitor behavior closely, provide plenty of enrichment, and ensure pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free.
“Finn has a wonderful time when he visits Angela’s. He loves playing with her dogs and all the love and walks that he gets. Angela is always very prompt in returning messages and has been a great host. We will definitely call again for boarding♥️”

“This was my first time leaving Lucy with a sitter like this, so I was definitely a little anxious. Melissa made the whole experience really easy and kept me updated while I was gone. Lucy came home happy and well taken care of, and I felt like she was in good hands the whole time. I’d definitely trust Melissa with Lucy again!”

“Alex was amazing and able to help out last minute booking over the holidays. Sent plenty of photos and updates and showed great care for my dog. Would recommend and will use again.”

About: I grew up on a farm and have been looking after my dog while using my animal loving gifts for neighbors and family and you!

I have a fenced yard and a dog at home, I also live near downtown Johnson Dr and near parks for fun walks and play.

About: I am a responsible professional who is looking to make some extra money outside of my full-time job in tech. I love dogs and many other types of animals and have 2 dogs, Severus and Hagrid, whom I live with at home. My availability is relatively flexible, and I can work from home during the week. During the week I am available to stay overnight at your house and may be able to stop by in the middle of a weekday, depending on your location. During your absence I am also willing to take in your mail or water your plants. While I am available on weekends, I will need advanced notice to ensure that I am able to accommodate your request. My skills include experience training a puppy and caring for animals other than dogs. I have been pet/house sitting for families since I was eight, taking care of various types of animals such as dogs, reptiles, cats, and fish. I work full time M-F but have the flexibility to work remotely if I choose to do so. I am available evenings and weekends, as well as during the workday to let out dogs for bathroom breaks. I offer in-home boarding in my home for dogs, house sitting in the owner’s home (available to stay overnight in the home) for both dogs and cats, and drop-in visits.
“We weren’t looking forward to leaving our 10-month old puppy for a weekend, but Madolyn completely put us at ease and was so wonderful with our pup in her home. She sent lots of photos, even a video of our pup and hers playing and having a ball. She kept us updated on his days and also let us know that he was doing great overnight. We could tell from the photos he was happy, and we knew he was being well-cared for and getting lots of attention. Madolyn has a huge fenced yard for the doggies to run, sniff and play in—they have all the space they need for roaming. When we picked him up he was calm and happy to see us, but he didn’t seem in a rush to leave! We were so happy with Madolyn's care and will definitely want her to care for our Carlton again and again.”

“Colin and Tiffanee were so great! They took excellent care of my needy dog when a last minute trip came up. Clearly welcoming him into their home and sending me lots of pictures.”


“This is our 11-year old pup's first time boarding with someone that wasn't family or a close friend and it went great! Austin was very responsive and easy to work with and flexible with plans. Lily had a good time.”

“I boarded both my Boys with Matthew during the Thanksgiving break. He was extremely flexible with the pickup and drop off times and communicated very well. He took excellent care of both my boys and provided me with regular updates and photos. I would definitely board my boys with Matthew again and would highly recommend him to anyone need to board their dogs.”

“Sarah was absolutely phenomenal! She was so accommodating/flexible and reassuring. She send plenty of updates and I know my two pups had an absolute blast with hef. She has the perfect set up! It made me feel way less guilty leaving my babies behind knowing that Sarah has a fantastic yard for them to play in. Almost felt like dropping the pups off at a Summer camp. I am a very anxious dog mom and I felt at ease knowing that my babies were in great hands. If I could leave more than 5 stars, I would!”

“Beth was wonderful with my babies! This was my first experience with Rover and it was a great one. I received photos throughout the time we were gone of what my animals were doing and I felt good that they weren't left alone in a cage the entire time we were gone. My one dog has a lot of medical issues and Beth was able to meet all her needs as well. I definitely appreciated all of the love and care they received while I was gone. I will definitely utilize Beth again in the future.”

Nicole is wonderful! Her caring, energetic attitude paired with her immaculate home, huge yard and sweet family made for a great space to care for our pups! Nicole is very accommodating, flexible and provided us daily pics of our dogs while she was caring for them. Would definitely book her again!

Stacy was fantastic. Our dog is typically anxious at new houses / in new environments, but River was so quickly comfortable with Stacy!! She treated River as her own and gave her lots of love and attention. Her dog Allie was so calm and sweet, so it was so nice to know there would be good company for River who is not normally dog-social. Her home was so lovely, clean, and a calming environment to leave our pup. We will definitely use her again!! 10 out of 10 stars

Lizmarie made me feel comfortable and assured that my dogs were in good hands! She was always very responsive, helpful, and friendly. She was happy to set up a meet and greet with us so my dogs could become familiar with her prior to boarding, sent us lots of photos and videos, and made sure my dogs felt right at home. I was so happy to see how much fun my dogs had going on walks, playing with her sweet dog, and getting lots of pets and snuggles. Lizmarie is very capable and caring, and even helped work with our dog about not pulling on his leash! When our flight home was delayed, she was extremely accommodating and even offered to drop our dogs off at our home. It was great knowing our dogs had a safe and fun vacation with her while we had a vacation of our own. I would be happy to board my dogs with Lizmarie again!

We had such an amazing experience with Richard. Leaving our dog behind is always stressful, but he sent the best daily updates and photos that put us completely at ease! Samson was so happy and well looked after the whole time. We will absolutely be booking with Richard again."

Jessie and Jeeps (her dog) were fantastic! She was accommodating with our dogs routine and walked him many times each day. She was extremely communicative and sent many pictures which made me as a dog mama feel so much more comfortable using rover for the first time. Highly recommend Jessie to watch your pups!
