“Thank you for watching my princess while I was on my vacation. Because she is shy around strangers, it was such a relief to see her trust you and become more comfortable with you each day”

Jayeon K.

“Monica has been great with our golden retriever, Dierks. Her communication is amazing - she always provides updates on the check-in and sends so many pictures to help us know he’s in great hands. Would definitely recommend Monica and will be re-booking!”

About: Pets are the best things in the world! I’ve grown up with my own pets and nothing makes me happier. I have pet sat 30 pets in my time and I’d love to watch yours too! I’ve even fostered 3 dogs in my own home, all of which have been adopted. Adding a pet is just an extra step to everyday routine and I’d love to share all my love with them too! I work full time, but again pets are family! They are something you cater to everyday and make time for no matter what. Everyone has their own needs and so do pets, so I will be make sure they are well taken care off based off each individual need. I have a fenced yard, no other pets in the house (as of now). Depending on the dogs needs/ owners wants I can accommodate to what is needed!

About: I have grown up with dogs and taken care of dogs my whole life!! I absolutely love dogs more than anything and have dog sat a ton!! But what sets me apart is I am home almost all the time so I will be here to take care of your dog 24/7!! I can take them on walks as much or as little as you would like! :) I am currently a student on break this summer so I am home very often to play, walk and care for your pets!! I am planning to go study animal science after this summer to be a vet!! Your dog will get more than enough affection from me as I love all animals!! ;) I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for your dogs to enjoy! I also have a friendly goldendoodle who would be able to keep your dog company and play together!!

About: I’ve been caring for pets for family and friends for much of my life and am excited to bring those skills to Rover. I have owned my own dog for 6 years now and have learned a ton about having a dog that requires boundaries and maintenance for triggers of his reactivity. I’ve learned patience and am happy to do that for your furry friends as well! I work from home on Mondays and Fridays which gives me the flexibility to leave for drop-in visits throughout the day and after work! Tuesday-Thursdays can also be arranged if your home is near my office - contact me for details! While I’m unable to care for others’ pets in my own home since my pup prefers human friends, I will care for your pet in any way you need in your own home. I prefer homes where I can let your pet out into a fenced yard but am happy to take pets out on a leash if they are leash trained and/or you prepare me for their behavior.

“Amanda is absolutely the best! First off, my dogs love her and I felt so comfortable with her. Very trustworthy and responsive. She sent us pictures and a very detailed summary of her visit. We love Amanda and would recommend her anytime!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. My family has owned four chocolate labs and one black lab and my has family bred dogs for the last 18 years so I am comfortable caring for dogs of all ages. Currently, my wife and I own a two year-old golden retriever. I work a 8-5 job but walk my golden retriever in the morning for about 2 miles and in the evening for about 3-4 miles. We also find time to play in the house, go to the dog park, or play fetch throughout the week. I do not traditionally take on other individual’s dogs in my home and plan to offer dog walking/at home visits. That being said, I have taken care of family pets for a week or so. My general strategy is to get them comfortable with the environment and me and then introduce them to activities or play time.

“Molly was so great with our dog! She was a great communicator and even let me book last minute! She took a ton of pictures of Redford and gave me a very detailed report. Highly recommend!”

“Dawn is outstanding! We were nervous to let someone into our home to check on our two kitties each day during our two-week vacation. Dawn made the entire process easy and comforting from beginning to end. After the meet and great, we knew our kitties were in good hands. She provided detailed and personalized updates each day and sent photos. While our cats are typically apprehensive of strangers, Dawn took the time to develop a connection with both of them, adjusting food requirements, brushing and playing with them. She even watered the house plants for us. We never worried for a minute while away. We feel very fortunate to have found Dawn and will certainly recommend her to our family and friends, Thank you, Dawn!!”

About: I have well over 24 years caring for dogs. I believe a house isn't a home without a dog. We (me and my family) lost our dog, Teddy, about 11/2 years ago. It has been very hard living without him. I still look for him at the door whenever I come home. We are still heartbroken from his passing. Someday we hope to find the courage to love again. Until then we want to love on all the doggies that come to stay and play with us. When your dog is here he/she is part of our family. Please be willing to come by with your pup for a meet & greet before any reservations are made. Our main concern is that you are completely comfortable leaving your fur-baby with us. Here is a coupon for $20 off. Your Promo Code: TIFFAK87923 Your promo code is only for new Rover members you recruit through your profile link. Rules and restrictions apply—read our Terms of Service to learn more. I work for H&R Block during tax season, January thru April. I am home all day the rest of the year to care for your doggie. I care for your dog as if he/she were my own. We will go on walks to Greenbelt Park, Grays Lake, and all throughout our neighborhood. We can play fetch in our yard. Also, belly rubs are a must :)

“Megan was able to make a home visit in the middle of the day on short notice. Though she was there a short duration, she still sent pictures. We could tell our dog was happy to see her again.”

“Traci was absolutely amazing! Very attentive to my fur babies, went the extra mile and always made sure they were comfortable and loved. Would highly recommend and will be using her services in the future. Best experience I've had by far!”

About: I’ve grown up on a farm loving animals. I currently have two dogs myself and just love the opportunity to make a pet’s day part of my day. I do work a full time job currently but have plenty of time in the evening to drop in on your pet. Eventually, I’m hoping to make this more of a full time schedule. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I’m happy to let them out, take them for walks, spend time for snuggles or play and even feed them a meal if necessary.

About: Hi there! I'm Gaby and I've had dogs my whole life and am a big animal lover! I've trained my two dogs and cared for them until their old age. Your furry family member deserves patience, joy, and lots of snuggles. Whether I'm going for a cozy walk, playing fetch, or giving out belly rubs, I'm happiest when animals feel safe, loved and completely themselves around me. I know leaving your pet with someone new can feel stressful, so I'm big on communication and trust. You can expect regular photo updates, plenty of love, and a calm, caring presence for your pet. I've worked with pets of all personalities: shy, snuggly, energetic, quirky, or a mix of everything. I'll make sure they feel comfortable, entertained, and well cared for the entire time you're away. If you're looking for a sitter who brings warmth, reliability, and a whole lot of heart, I'd love to meet your furry family member! I'm currently working from home most days during the wintertime, and have a lot of flexibility to care for your pet while you're out! I can provide daily check-ins, room-and-board at my home, or house sitting at yours. I currently live in an apartment unit with my pup, Sol, so your pet will have a friendly companion to play with! I usually go on a couple daily walks around the neighborhood and sometimes visit the dog park for them to release their energy and play with other friendly furry neighbors. If your pet has any special needs, please let me know as I can accommodate for any situation!
