“Jean was fantastic! Our dog had the best time and we’re so thankful he had such a wonderful place to stay with ample room to play. She constantly communicated how he was doing with pictures included. He had a great time!”
“Melodie made my Maltese poodle feel at home with snuggle time, cozy pillows, drives around town and special care for his meds and special food requirements. He also made friends with her cute little Yorkies. I had peace of mind leaving him because she sent me plenty of pics. I will be taking him again.”
“Hannah did a fantastic job with our senior dog and our kitten! We will definitely be booking with her again the next time we need a pet sitter. Thank you, Hannah, for taking such great care of Bear and Nyx for us!”
“I could not have asked for a better family to watch my dog! Samantha and Brian were so kind and accommodating with my older dog! My dog had some issues initially acclimating to the new environment and they went above and beyond to make him feel at home. To the extent that Brian slept in the living room with him, where my dog felt most comfortable. Their children and their pup were wonderful with him as well! The family even accommodated me picking my dog up a night early since our holiday plans changed. This family really was a blessing when we needed to leave our dog for the holidays! Thank you again!!”
“Jessica took such great care of PB while we were away! I can tell she kept him busy and active by how sleepy he’s been since coming home. He’s one happy guy, and it’s clear he had a great time with her!”
“Mara has always gone the extra mile to take care of our pups. When our dog became ill while in her care, she took great care of him until we could return home. She has a wonderful heart and experience with dogs!”
“Veronica is very sweet. She was very nice to my dog. Her 2 dogs are very friendly and seems like my dog had a great time at Veronica’s house. I will ask her again. I do strongly recommend her to all dog owners.”
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. Over the years, I’ve had as many as three dogs at a time and have raised several of them from puppies through their senior years. Within the last couple of years, I said goodbye to my dogs as they reached old age, and after taking a little break, I’m ready to have dogs in my life again. Rover feels like the perfect way to do that while helping other people feel confident that their pets are in good hands. I have plenty of experience with large dogs and am very comfortable with their personalities, energy, and needs. My most recent dog was a Great Dane who lived to be 13 years old, so I also have firsthand experience caring for senior dogs and the extra patience and attention they sometimes need. Over the years, I’ve also owned and cared for pit bulls, boxers, terriers, and other breeds with a wide range of personalities and energy levels. I’ve raised dogs from puppies, cared for them throughout their adult lives, and helped them comfortably through their senior years. Most importantly, I genuinely enjoy being around dogs. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, quirks, and comfort level, and I’m happy to adapt to what makes your dog feel safe, relaxed, and at home. I currently work from home and so does my other half. There would be very few times your pet would be left unattended while staying in our home. We have a large home with a huge fenced backyard so your dog can play freely without worry. Currently we do not have any pets of our own. For larger dogs we still have elevated food and water dishes.
About: Animals have been a part of my life for over 35 years, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I've shared my life with beloved pets, cared for neighborhood animal friends, and welcomed animals into my home. After losing our family dog a couple of years ago, I've found so much joy in sharing that love with other animals. Every animal has its own personality, quirks, and needs, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each one. I'm also a registered nurse with 20 years of experience, which has made me patient, observant, compassionate, and attentive to the little details. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for a beloved family member. Whether your pet loves cuddles, playtime, quiet companionship, or a little extra reassurance, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I care for animals the way I would want someone to care for my own. I work from home most days, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. Your pet won't be spending long stretches feeling lonely! My husband of 26 years is also a huge animal lover, so there's no shortage of love, cuddles, and attention in our home. Caring for animals is something we both genuinely enjoy, and we love making them part of our daily lives. Our home is a loving, relaxed environment with a fenced yard for safe outdoor time and plenty of space for pets to feel comfortable. My husband and I are both lifelong animal lovers, and your furry family member will receive double the cuddles and attention! I'm also happy to care for pets in their own homes, where they feel most comfortable. For these visits, my husband would accompany me, with your permission, so your pets can enjoy some extra love and companionship. We respect your home, your pet's routines, and any special instructions you provide. With my 20 years of nursing experience, I bring an extra level of patience, attentiveness, and responsibility to caring for animals. Your pet's safety, happiness, and well-being will always be my priority.
“Charisse was fabulous in caring for our Lexi. She kept us apprised of how things were going, and we had a happy relaxed pup upon our return. Can’t wait for our next vacation and Lexi’s next sleepover!”
“Shannon and Matt are so helpful watching my old dog. They really care about their guests, go out of their way, and send frequent updates. Highly recommend!”
“Julie and Barry cared for my dog Iris while she was convalescing from an intestinal illness. They administered meds and prescription food with great care. As usual she was the only dog in the home and got all the attention. She gets to nap and sleep right next to them, which makes her feel comfortable and happy. She clearly has affection for them both. You can’t do better than Julie and Barry for care for your pup while you’re away. They care for Iris as if she were their own.”
“Bridgette and Beau and Winnie could not have made Lola's stay any more comfortable. Lola had never stayed with unknown people let alone with another dog or cat so this was a bit experimental for all of us. But after a meet and greet it looked like a match. We were gone for two days and received daily updates and photos. Lola is accustomed to free ranging on furniture and beds and she was made to feel right at home with Bridgette and Beau and Winnie was a great sharer. I will definitely book with these Rover superstars again. Upcoming vacation planned in September. Thank you so much.”
“Last minute issue came up and Peter & Missy were gracious to take my little girl for a few days over a holiday. So happy she could go someplace familiar with minimal disruption. Plus, I always know she’s in good hands with them (and Gunner)!”
“Jennifer & Eric and the boys were great company for Oliver. He came home tired and that's a good sign. We appreciated the option for sitter-pick up and thank you for taking good care of our boy.”
“We can’t thank Katie enough for always taking such great care of Gus! We are so lucky to have found her & Randy! Gus loves staying with them and we always feel at ease knowing he’s in such great hands.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Johnson City
Absolutely WONDERFUL! Maggie watched my dog for three nights when I needed someone last minute. She and her other pups welcomed us and made us feel comfortable. While I was gone, I got sweet photos and updates. She has a great backyard and is safe for running and playing. My dog will definitely be back! We love Maggie and her guys! So happy we found her.
Jaimo is fantastic! She clearly has a lot of animal experience and her love of animals is very apparent. Her home is lovely with a good-sized yard. She communicates frequently and clearly; she sent adorable pictures every day I was gone. I would recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter!
I can’t recommend them enough! They took amazing care of Jetson and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Communication was excellent throughout, with regular updates and photos, which meant so much to me. They were also incredibly flexible when my plans changed and went out of their way to accommodate Jetson, which I truly appreciated. He came home happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. I would absolutely trust them with Jetson again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate pet sitters.
Egle was a great communicator in regards to my dog's well being. Being that this was the first time for my elder dog to be with a pet sitter, Egle dealt with the "home sick" situation/whining and kept me informed. Her communications with me during the at home stay with my dog was awesome. I'd definitely feel comfortable having Egle look after my pet again. Thank you so much Egle.
Casey did a wonderful job taking care of Percy. It was his first time staying with a sitter and Casey was great at helping him adjust and was patient as Percy settled in. We received multiple daily updates and pictures and were always assured Percy was receiving the best care.
Amy and Eric took such kind and wonderful care of our very anxious senior dog. They were so attentive to his needs and gave him a lot of affection and playtime. They were very communicative, reliable, and welcoming and provided thoughtful updates and photos on how he was doing which helped put us at ease. Everything went smoothly and our dog was comfortable and well loved! We highly recommend them and will be using them again.
Mara was so great to coordinate with and it’s so clear that she is great with dogs! Our boy is a big goofball who gets a little overwhelmed sometimes, but after just one meet and greet, we knew it would be a great fit for him to stay with Mara while we went out of town. He clearly loved his time there and we enjoy the tired and happy boy!!
Sierra stepped up at the eleventh hour and did a wonderful job! She was open to negotiating a reasonable price, even though it was short notice with my other sitter cancelling on me. I came back from my two week trip to a Special bear that was happy and healthy. She even got her a stuffed animal! Thanks again Sierra :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Johnson City home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Johnson City.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Johnson City sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OR ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
