“Joey was wonderful. He met with us the day before for a Greet & Meet. He arrived promptly on both days and was very experienced & well-prepared to take care of our Senior. Joey was very detailed about Rufus's care plan and asked lots of good questions. He sent plenty of beautiful photos and updates during the day. Joey was able to use positive reinforcement (treats and positive praise) to wean him off his belly band. This was incredibly helpful as we have been able to continue without it.”


“Courtney is amazing. I have been apprehensive about using Rover as a service as my dogs can be a lot of work. She is a natural and great with my animals. I would rate her 10 stars if I could! I will definitely be using her in the future.”


“Mickey took excellent care of my older pup. She kept me well informed and sent lots of pictures. I came home to a happy and healthy pet. I would highly recommend Mickey and will definitely use her again in the future.”


“Ava was wonderful with my dogs! She took the time to meet Goose, my fearful dog, prior to house sitting and was so kind and respectful to Goose’s needs. She had all three dogs sleeping in bed and absolutely loving their time with Ava.”


“Madelyn was terrific! She asked all the right questions in our video chat meet n greet. Communications was clear and timely. She clearly loves dogs and knows how to care for them. This was the first time w electric our 6-month old pup with a sitter and we couldn’t be happier. She checked in by text over the course of the evening and sent pictures of how things were going. Rufus loved her! She also does pet photography and took some gorgeous photos of our boy.”


About: I absolutely love dogs. My wife's family has always had dogs. They currently have a German Shepard and a chocolate lab. I absolutely adore them. I have a large fenced in yard, I am also very flexible to come and sit anytime you need. I love taking dogs for a walk and I love playing with them at the park especially fetch! I am very reliable and safe and come from a dog family. I will love and care for your dog like I it is my own. My children are now in middle school and high school and they love dogs as well. I can provide loving and affection for your dog and care for it like it was my own. I hope to hear from you soon Taking care of a pet just becomes part of my everyday flow. You feed them, take them out or clean up after them, and make time to play or cuddle a bit. Most days involve quick things like feeding and walks, while once a week you might do a deeper clean or grooming. It’s not too hard once you get into a rhythm—it just becomes routine. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for, whether they’re in my home or a client’s. That includes feeding them on schedule, giving them fresh water, and making time for walks, play, or snuggles—whatever they need to feel happy and relaxed. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible to keep things familiar. If I’m in a client’s home, I also make sure everything stays clean and tidy, and I always send updates so they know their pet is doing great. I also have a fenced in yard.

“Karina did a great job with Bella and was openly kind, courteous, trusting, attentive, responsible, respectful, communicative and just all around the perfect pet sitter! She was so accomodating and helpful from the initial time I reached out to her. I was so relieved and happy when she said she could help! Bella, enjoyed time with Karina too. I could tell bc when I arrived home Bella was well adjusted and it looked like I had never left. Definitely will book Karina again and recommend her to all. You won't be disappointed!”



About: I have been trained in the pet department for country maxx! I work independent contract gigs full time and I have a very flexible schedule! I am a full-time aid to a young woman who loves animals. I work from 9am-4pm on weekdays, and am completely free on weekends! For day checks and walks, I can bring along the woman I care for as long as I have your permission. I can not offer night services at my apartment, but I will gladly house sit or check on your pups at night! I'm a super flexible person who is always looking for new opportunities!

“So happy with Elizabeth. My dogs were very well taken care of and we’ll definitely set up another appointment. She sent pictures and we felt very comfortable leaving for an overnight. Definitely recommend.”


“Kolby is an awesome sitter and he takes care of more than dogs! I have a farmstead that includes a horse, a goat, an emu and over 60 chickens and other foul that include babies right now. Kobe did overnights and everybody was well taken care of and happy. One of my dogs is very standoffish with strangers and a little bit intimidating and Kobe handled that like a champ. I'm super pleased with Colby and I will definitely be looking to book with him in the future. His rates are very reasonable. If you have animals besides just the normal cats and dogs, Kobe will be able to help you with that. Farmsteaders and homesteaders, this guy is great!”


About: I have had and taken care of dogs since a very young age. I have always taken pride to help care for dogs. Even with special abilities or medical problems. My dog Luna was Diagnosed with Epilepsy. So I am experienced and know what to do it high risk situations I work a full time job Monday through Friday from 8:30-5. I am free anytime after 5pm during the week. I am unable to do weekends or stay over nights. So if your looking for a 4-5 hour sitter. I'm your person! I will not be able to take your dog to my house. I can crate, walk, watch, or anything you would like me to do.

“Nikki was wonderful with our beagle, Wesley. She sent pictures regularly and followed our requests without any issues! Our house, including all our flowers, were well cared for! Communication excellent. Nikki was also very accommodating when we had travel issues returning home. We would use her services again, for sure!”


About: I have been fortunate enough to have had animals most of my life. These have ranged from dogs, rabbits, chickens, horses, cows, and fish. I have volunteered time at a wildlife rehab and also worked a few years at a dog daycare facility that would average about 50 dogs a day. I have a bachelors degree in Animal behavior, ecology and conservation. I have always had a special place in my heart for animals. I currently have 2 rabbits, 2 dogs and 11 chickens. I am a substitute teacher so my schedule is rather flexible. It allows me to arrange my week how I need it. My afternoons are usually pretty open. I will ensure that each pet is safe, secure and well taken care of in the comfort of their own home while providing updates to their families.

About: I have had my own pets since I was 18yrs old. Large ones, small one all different personalities. For some reason animals love me as much as I love them. I enjoy forming that bond with them. I will treat your animals as if they are my own. I will respect you home as I expect mine too be treated. I used Rover in my home before I decided I wanted to take care of others animals. I expected no one to touch anything of mine unless it pertained to the animals. I currently work a fairly flexible job so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I have two of my own dogs so house sitting needs to be flexible I have a fairly large sized yard that your pups can run in. My two fur babies are very friendly and will gladly keep your pups company

“Madison took such amazing care of Oliver during a long shift. She let him snuggle her and gave lots of love. I really appreciated the updates, photos, and communication. Definitely recommend! I’m sure Ollie is looking forward to next visit.”


About: I’ve owned 4 pets of my own and trained them all as puppies. I had 2 cats growing up so cats and dogs are my favorite though I watch exotic animals as well. I’m very one on one with pets as well and have a lot of extra time to offer. I am a full time animal nanny. I am lucky enough to call this job my career working with animals of all types! A dogs typical day here whether it’s an overnight stay or daycare is ALWAYS fun! Pictures and updates will be given at least 3 times a day of your fur baby! Lots of supervised outside playtime in my large fenced in yard with other dogs, bouncy balls and sticks! Potty time is every 3 hours unless a very young puppy (every hr or so). The dogs get 2 walks a day. 1 before breakfast and one before dinner. Playtime in the house is always supervised too. Puppy safe and older dog safe with nothing laying on the ground other than dog toys when it’s playtime which is always haha. Fresh water is ALWAYS available and replenished and cleaned out daily. After every group of dogs everything is completely sanitized and cleaned very well. My priority is keeping every dog safe as possible. I also do grooming, deshedding, and even blow-outs! I can also give dogs their yearly shots if needed. It’s all second nature to me. I can complete all this during their booked stay with me. Let’s have some fun! Dogs are family and should be treated as so. They will get lots of love and attention and even one on one time with me. The dogs get 2 walks a day no matter the weather. This makes it easier to care for your fur baby when they release their energy through a walk. I can not wait to meet your baby and have him or her stay with me! Big or small we love them all. I have a large yard with a fenced 6 ft privacy fence along with two friendly fur babies to keep your baby company. If you would like to have your dog separate for any reason that is possible too. My house is very dog friendly and accommodating for any dogs needs.

Theresa M.
“Theresa is someone whom you could leave you dog with and feel zero anxiety knowing that your furbaby is in excellent hands! She is extremely loving, caring, nurturing, responsible, and attentive with dogs, putting them before herself. Her experience as a dog-mom and a dog-lover has taught her how to take care of a litany of dog breeds and behaviors, making her someone who is always considering the multitude of possibilities when watching a dog. Her concern with making sure the dog is safe, taken care of, and happy is first and foremost whenever a dog is nearby (even if she is not responsible for it), and as a result, she will make sure that you feel at ease entrusting her with your furbaby!”
