“Gen is great and super reliable 🥰! She watches our 2 younger ones (because the one is destructive and the other one has anxiety™️️) and they are always tired at the end of the day 😊. I would absolutely recommend Gen.”

About: I’ve always loved dogs and have been best friends with many of my friends’ and family’s pups over the years. I haven’t been able to have one of my own because I already have four sweet, healthy cats at home, but my heart has plenty of room for dogs, too. I follow dog videos every day on Instagram and TikTok and “virtually” care for so many pups through Reels—it’s my favorite part of the day. I’m excited to use Rover to finally spend time with dogs in real life, give them love, care, and fun walks, and make them feel safe and happy. I truly treat every pet like family, and I’d be honored to be your dog’s sitter or walker! I’m currently home full time, so I have a very flexible schedule for pet sitting and drop in visits. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening care every day, including weekends and holidays. I’ll always make time to give your pet lots of love, attention, and play! I live in a calm, pet friendly home with four sweet and well behaved cats. I make sure every pet feels safe, relaxed, and loved. I follow your care instructions closely and always provide a clean, quiet space. I’m attentive, gentle, and treat every pet as if they were my own.

“Kilo came back very happy and sleepy from the day with Kristin and family. I got updates without having to ask, which I really appreciated. I think she had a great time and I’d trust bringing my pup back. Thanks again!!”

“We couldn’t be more pleased with Marley’s experience with Joyce. Joyce was very good about sending photos that really reassured us that Marley was getting along nicely. Marley was so well-cared for and had such a good time! In fact, Marley laid down outside the car, as we tried to leave, as if to say, “Aw gee, do we have to go home already?””

About: As a farm kid, animals (of every variety) have been part of my life for as long as I can remember! Now I get to share that joy with my family, our playful pup, our cat, & even our hedgehog! I have experience caring for dogs of all ages - from energetic puppies to calm seniors & I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I understand how important it is to keep your pets safe & feeling the love. And I love sending photo updates so you never miss a moment of their fun! Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I currently work from home & have lots of flexibility. I love having extra paws around to keep me company during the day & taking breaks for walks or cuddle sessions fits naturally into my schedule. Between working from home & chauffeuring my daughter to her various extracurricular activities, I can give your pets plenty of attention & exercise throughout the week! In my home, pets are treated like part of the family! I provide a safe, loving environment with lots of attention & play. Dogs who are social & cat-friendly are welcome to play with my own friendly dog & we have 6 acres of open space for well-trained pups to explore off-leash (always under supervision). The dogs who aren’t quite ready for off-leash will simply get to explore while leashed. Indoors, pets have cozy spots to relax & are never left alone for long. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their usual routine of feeding, walks, playtime, & any other specific instructions they need. I make sure pets feel comfortable & cared for while you’re away. I love sending regular photo updates so you always know how they’re doing, too!

“Fitzgerald had a great day – lots of fun! He is laying down now happily panting away. I bet he’ll be asleep before we hit the highway! Thank you very much!”

“Jorden and their wonderful family provided a fun and well cared for day for my big guy. They were well organized, caring, and lots of fun. I feel like my pooch. Found a new second home. Will be back!”

“Kate is amazing! Not only does she send you updates but she also is consistent with the training you and your dog are working on. She treated my dog like it was her own and I feel like my dog is so safe with her. Definitely going to Kate again!”

About: I am a dog lover who work from home, so your pup will always have care and attention. My own sweet dog Nila loves having canine friends over to play or relax with! I pride myself on being highly communicative—expect lots of photo and video updates throughout the day :) Your pup will never be left alone for long stretches and can enjoy frequent potty breaks, walks, and play sessions throughout the day. We usually start the morning with a potty break and outdoor time. Midday includes more walks, visit to dog park, or play with Nila. We wrap up the evening with another outdoor break and wind-down time. Whether your dog is playful or prefers a quiet spot to relax, we’ll adjust the routine to meet their needs. We live in a quiet, dog-friendly residential area surrounded by parks, grassy trails, and trees. We live on the first floor, with quick and easy access to the outdoors, including a dog run.

About: I have had animals since I was very young so lots of experience. Have owned 3 rescue dogs who are just like members of my family. Recently, I have been helping friends with their animals when they vacation and am looking to extend my client group to the local area. I am very active so walking dogs is very enjoyable for me. I am free most mornings and nights and have longer breaks during my work day that would allow flexibility for drop ins and walks all week. I am able to come to your home and provide for your pet's needs including walks, feeding, potty breaks etc. I've even been known to clean a litter box or two. Can provide references upon request.

“My little puppy felt so safe at Pri's house. She was flexible with my varied work schedule. Pick up and drop off was quick and easy. Her daughter was also very polite and accommodating. Would 10/10 recommend.”

Vanessa P.

“Perfect. My pup went into Christina and Jeremy's house a little nervous and came out wagging. Christina and Jeremy were well set up, easy to work with and clearly like dogs. My guy will be back!”

David H.

“Brenda and Joey (and their kids) were great. Very responsive to messages about logistics and handled things well with my dog, who got lots of walks and pictures taken. Would definitely book with them again”

About: I have two dogs of my own who I have raised since they were puppies, and they’re now happy senior dogs. Being with them throughout every stage of life has taught me so much about care, patience, and how to truly understand a dog’s needs. I’ve also spent years pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors. I am attentive, dependable, and go above and beyond to make sure pets are comfortable and well looked after. I’m home from college for the summer and have a very open, flexible schedule. I’m already caring for my two dogs every day, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, I have the time and experience to give your dog the attention they need. I keep things calm and consistent, whether your dog is at my home or I am at yours. At home, I have two very friendly dogs and a safe space where everyone is supervised and comfortable. If I am in your home, I stick to your routine and make sure your dog feels relaxed and cared for. I treat every dog with the same attention I give my own.

About: I grew up on a farm and am an avid, life long lover of animals. I have more than a decade of direct dog sitting and walking experience. I have fostered cats, farm sat and done farming chores. I feel comfortable working all ages of dogs, follow directions related to your pet meticulously and always exceed expectations of my customers. References available upon request. I work no more than 32 hours per week, mostly from home. I have flexibility and am able to work around the schedule your best friend keeps/maintains. Because I have a large fenced in yard, all critters who stay with me can rome with safety. They can come in and out when they choose, as well will be let out every 1-3 hours. All critters lodging are fed seperatedly and are taken for daily walks. Couches and beds are pet zones and we want all guests to feel at home, comfortable and secure.
