“Maria was so great! She and her family made my pup feel right at home and provided me with daily updates while I was traveling. My pup had a great time! I would definitely book with her again!”

Riley F.

“Wonderful communication and overall experience for both us and our pets. We loved knowing that they cared for our pups as if they were their own.”

Lindsay D.

“This was our first experience with Rover and we could not have dreamed of a better experience! Sara was so sweet and knowledgeable, and sent lots of wonderful photos. The next time we will absolutely go to her first!!”

Jayme B.

“Joe is phenomenal. Our dog Freya is always excited to see him and you would think her butt would fall off with how excited she gets when we drive up to his house. Joe is great at communication and sends daily pictures of her playing with friends or playing fetch. I can’t recommend him enough.”

About: I've been caring for dogs for over 10 years, from walking and feeding to overnight stays. I often pet-sit for friends when they travel, and I've also rescued and nursed several stray dogs back to health. Every dog I care for is treated with the same love and attention as my own. I work from home full-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I'm able to walk, feed, and spend time with dogs throughout the day, not just during set hours. Weekends and evenings are open for boarding as well. I provide a calm, clean, and secure indoor environment for boarding dogs. Each dog gets a comfortable resting area, and I take them out for regular walks and bathroom breaks. Safety is always my top priority. I never leave dogs unsupervised in unfamiliar or hazardous situations.

“Johanna was absolutely excellent with my pup Mia. She kept me updated everyday by sending pictures and videos. Her dog Stella is very sweet and playful. She became to be a friend with my dog instantly. I enjoyed watching their play videos thanks to Johanne. We’ll definitely see Johanne again very soon.”

“Could not be any happier with the care for brutus. We got plenty of updates and you could tell how happy our pup was. We'll definitely be using their services in the future. A+”

“Brittni was super easy to work with and did a great job watching our dog and both cats. Thanks!!”

Mark K.

“Jack loved his visit! They were so good with him and provided updates and photos throughout the day. Their dogs Chowder and Regina are awesome, and my dog enjoyed spending time with them. Will definitely be using them for my next upcoming trips! 10/10”

“Kayla was amazing! She accommodated us last minute and agreed to watch our doggie even though he had little experience with cats. She consistently updated us and took great care of my fur baby. I highly recommend Kayla!”

Carla K.

“Elizabeth was wonderful!!! I left my dog for the first time ever and she made it so easy for me! Excellent communication and excellent care! My fur baby will definitely be back there!”

Gabriella C.

“Jillian was fantastic! This was our first time using Rover and the experience exceeded our expectations. She offers one client at a time service which was bonus since we have a senior paced dog and a crazy puppy. Jillian was extremely responsive and provided pictures daily. Her fenced in backyard was great and the dogs really enjoyed roaming around. We will definitely use Jillian again on our next vacation without the dogs!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities! I currently have two Basset Hounds, ages 3 and 4, two 9-year-old pigs who are kept completely separate from the dogs, and a cat. I grew up with German Shepherds and reptiles, and over the years I’ve also had Great Danes, hamsters, ferrets, crayfish, and plenty of other animal friends. I’m comfortable with everything from big dogs to small animals, and I understand that every pet has their own routine, quirks, and comfort level. I know how hard it can be for pets when their people are away, so my biggest priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and as at home as possible. Whether that means lots of attention and playtime, a good walk, couch cuddles, or simply giving a more independent pet their space, I’m happy to follow their lead. I’ll treat your pets like I’d want someone to treat my ow, with patience, affection, and plenty of attention. 🐾 I am currently home all day and night most week days and some weekends. Your pets will be loved on constantly the entire time they are here. My two Bassets love having company and are always up for playing or cuddling. There’s plenty of couch space for dogs who like to snuggle, and they even have access to the bed—with stairs! I’m happy to accommodate both the social butterfly who wants to be part of everything and the dog who would rather have some space to relax. I don’t have a fully fenced-in yard, but I have plenty of yard space in a quiet neighborhood. There is a small, short fenced area directly off the porch with a patch of grass for quick potty breaks. Dogs can also be taken outside on a leash or tethered, depending on what they’re accustomed to and what their owner prefers. I’m also very accustomed to accidents in the house—one of my Bassets, Polly, has them regularly—so a dog who isn’t perfectly house-trained, has occasional accidents, or needs more frequent potty breaks is absolutely not a problem. I have an XL crate if that is something they prefer. My other Basset, Hank has bad anxiety and takes daily medications so that is not a problem either. Most importantly, I know being away from their people and usual surroundings can be stressful for pets. I want your dog to feel like they’re staying at a second home rather than just being boarded somewhere. I’ll do my best to stick to their routine, learn their quirks, give them plenty of attention, and make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved until you’re back 🐾❤️

“A great service. Rover provided us with participating sitters in our area. Lisa put our minds at ease, as this was a first time for us to leave our boy with anyone. We were updated on our boy throughout the evening. Thank you.”

Chantelle Y.

“First time using rover. She was great. Sent me at least 6 pictures during my dogs stay. I will definitely always ask her to watch my dog from now on.”

Lex M.

“Michelle and Luke were wonderful! We were in a pinch getting someone to look after our 6 month Cavapoo, and we couldn't have made a better pick. We were updated every day, pick up and drop off were a breeze and our pup felt right at home. I wouldn't hesitate to book with them again. So thankful to have found this wonderful family!”

Nicole B.

“Emily and her family made me feel so comfortable leaving Apollo. I was nervous to leave him since we just moved to a new place but she took time to introduce our pets and bring him into her home as their dog. So grateful. I will book again.”

Joanna R.

“Megan has been our go-to for over a year now and we couldn't be happier with her. Our dogs are always comfortable, happy, and safe with her and her family. She is so kind, reliable, and a great communicator. Cannot recommend her highly enough!”

About: Hi! My name is Katie and I am a recent Pitt alum with a passion for pets! I’ve been taking care of dogs of my own for about 15 years now and love every minute! I’ve also pet sat for family and friends on and off for the past 4 years. To me, pets are apart of our families and deserve the best care possible. I’m here to help care for all of your furry friends like they’re my own: with passion, kindness, and a little fun too :) I have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, administering medication, and overall dog care! I currently work a full-time, Monday-Friday job. I am available during the week after 6pm for drop by visits and walks. I usually have open availability on the weekends, but please check my availability for updated times and dates! I have three dogs at home, two senior dogs and a younger pup. They all get along with other dogs well, but their will be some initial barking and sniffing when introduced to knew furry friends. I am about 10 minutes away from South Park, which also has a dog park.

“Melissa took great care of my old boy Mikey and he got along well with her doggies especially Marley. Melissa truly cares about animals. Thanks!”
