Mary and her husband are absolutely wonderful caregivers! I received daily updates about my Ivy and they were very sweet, loving and caring with her. I highly recommend Mary to anyone who needs to be able to trust 100% that their fur babies will be well cared for!

We are absolutely pleased with how Sydney took care of our dog. She is so sweet and we can tell our dog was well taken care of. He was so clean and handsome when we got him back so I could tell she even bathed him! She sent pictures and updates on him and so we never had to worry. Thank you Sydney, we will definitely be calling you if we're back in that area for another Jiu Jitsu competition. Thank you for doing a great job with Lucky, we can't thank you enough!

Brandi was wonderful from drop off to pick up. Lots of updates on our pup while we were gone on a week vacation. He is still a puppy and lots of energy so we were glad he could be with someone in their home while we were away. Definitely would recommend.

Sumer went above and beyond! She was there for me in a time of crisis and I will never forget that. She helped me out and was very flexible when it was really needed. Also, my dogs love her! I can't believe how fast my shy guy came out of his shell for her! Yay Sumer! Thank you so much!

Thomas & Emily are the best pet sitters ever. The love & attention given to Abbey was exceptional. Abbey loved playing with Monster & she was treated like their own which made it so much easier to be away. We loved the updates, photos & video. Meds were also given morning & night. We highly recommend Thomas & Emily. We will definitely use them again. Thank you both so much.

Traci provided a wonderful experience for my pup! It was my first time leaving her since I adopted her and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the whole experience. Traci made my girl feel right at home and sent me updates and pictures that really eased any worries I may have had. I will definitely request Traci again in the future.

About: I’ve cared for dogs since the age of 5. I provide personalized, reliable dog care with constant communication, treating every dog like my own so owners can leave without worry. I currently work a full-time job from 7a-3p. I am available any time outside of those hours excluding boarding overnight. I am available on weekends. While I don’t have a fenced yard, dogs are never left unattended outdoors. All bathroom breaks and outdoor activities (walks, etc) are done on-leash with close supervision.

Jonna took AMAZING care of our Blaike. Her and her family were gentle, attentive, caring, loving, and kind to her. They helped ease her anxiety, made sure she was always comfortable and secure, and gave her so much love, rubs, and affection. They truly treated her like a member of the family. We will absolutely be utilizing her Boarding services for our next trip, and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter. Thank you so much Jonna!!😊❤️❤️❤️

Jacqueline and her family took excellent care of our pups. They were patient with our pups despite the challenges they presented. We received regular updates that included videos and text. I knew they were in good hands and this allowed us to enjoy our time away. I will choose them every time we are away for an extended time. You should pick her too!

About: Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’ve helped look after dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from high-energy pups to shy seniors who need a gentler touch. Friends, neighbors, and family regularly rely on me because I’m attentive, patient, and truly enjoy spending time with their pets. I make sure every dog feels comfortable, safe, and loved, whether we’re playing, going for walks, or just relaxing together. Your pet will get reliable care and plenty of affection while they’re with me. I have 1 year dog kennel experience that inspired me to become a vet assistant and dog groomer to hopefully start my own commercial business in the future! Thank you for considering me and contributing to my experience it is greatly appreciated and your animals will be treated like my own! Boarding Capacity for personalized attention in my home • 1 dog I’m in school studying to become a veterinary assistant, so pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. My class schedule is flexible, giving me lots of availability on weekends and most weekdays. Since animal care is already a big part of my life, I’m able to provide consistent attention, playtime, and reliability for your pets. I do online. I also work full time as a dog groomer! I have a safe, calm home with a fenced yard, two friendly dogs, and cats that are very dog-friendly and do not bother visiting pets. If your dog prefers space, I can easily keep my pets completely separated at all times. Your dog’s safety and comfort always come first whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine. I follow your feeding, potty, and exercise routine so they feel secure and settled. I maintain structured drop-off and pick-up windows for boarding to keep transitions smooth and stress-free. If you don’t really have a route with pups and are a go with the flow person like I am I can provide food,8-10 potty breaks, and two walks. Your dog’s stay includes: Safe & Comfortable Nighttime Setup • Cozy dog room with: • Dog beds • Fresh blankets & toys • Air purifier for clean, comfortable airflow • Bluetooth speakers for calming music • Potty pad spot • I sleep in the room with the dogs (10 PM–6 AM) • everything is sanitized after every stay using pet-safe detergent For safety during walks in my neighborhood, there are no sidewalks so we walk against traffic so we can see oncoming cars with dogs on the right side of me farthest away from the road in grass. In the winter, I follow a cold-weather walking policy for safety: if it’s too cold for me in an t shirt it’s too cold for them! Usually requests winter weather gear like boots and coat but one can be provided(washed after every use with pet safe detergent). (Black puffer and no slip socks.) Night time walking- don’t worry about the days getting darker I’ve got it covered with my reflective gear, flashlight, collar light clips, and more. Thank you for understanding and helping keep your pet safe!

We were bummed when our usual Rover sitters and dog-sitting friends weren’t available to watch our dog during a recent weekend trip—but now we’re delighted that it means we and our dog got to meet Roni! Roni was great about sending updates, professional, and clearly knowledgeable about animals. Our dog obviously had a great time with her, and came home happy and tired (in the best way) from playing! Would definitely recommend for all your pet-care needs, and we’re so glad to have another great sitter to reach out to.

This was our first time using Rover.com and we were thrilled to find Mary! She provided the best level of care that we could have expected. Maxine is used to going everywhere with us, but she was unable to accompany us on this weekend trip. We felt comfortable the minute we met Mary and her husband during our meet-and-greet. Maxine settled in quickly. We greatly appreciated the daily photos Mary sent of Maxine's activity. She looked so happy, we were afraid she wouldn't want to leave "Camp Mary" when we picked her up! Thank you so much Mary! We will definitely use you the next time we have a need!
