About: I am an animal lover and I have always had pets. The past few years I have been saving lives and fostering with One By One Reacue! I am currently on a foster break since I have 4 dogs of my own but help run the rescue in other ways. I am lucky enough to work from home and be with my pets all day. They stay in the general area I am when I work. Since I have 4 dogs of my own, I would like to provide boarding at my house. I am in a town house and I have movable metal fencing for my dogs. I never leave them outside alone. When I do have to run to the store or have plans for the day (usually no more than 8 hours) I have a furbo that I check in on them throughout the day. I also gate off my stairs so no one can use them (or fall down, I had a blind dog and watch one) when I am not there.
“Oh wow, booking a stay for our dog with Armida has officially set the bar incredibly high for what great dog care can and should look like! From before the booking even started, she wanted to know the interests and preferences of our pup, and planned around it all, including her own sleeping arrangements to ensure our pup was comfortable!! She pampered our pup so well, it felt that the dog was welcomed as a part of their family for the week! I cannot recommend Armida highly enough! One of the sweetest, kindest people I've ever met, too. We will forever be using Armida for our dog care needs for as long as she is available!!”
“Breanna was so wonderful watching my pup, Kira, for the weekend! They went on walks, met other dog friends, and got doggy ice cream. She was thorough about asking if Kira had allergies and how she reacted to other dogs beforehand, which was much appreciated! I will absolutely go with Breanna again next time Kira needs to be watched over a weekend!”
“This was a great experience for our dog Lily, and therefore for us as well. This was our first time leaving our 3 year old golden, so we were a little apprehensive until we met Ashley and her 2 great dogs. We were gone for over a week and we never worried about our dog; we knew she was a good hands and getting lots of attention and great care. Ashley sent us pictures, videos, and updates. This was the first time Lily really had extended play with other dogs plus Ashley's kids; it was clear our dog was happy, safe, and probably didn't want to leave :-) Couldn't have asked for better care or a better experience. We highly recommend Ashley and hope to use her again soon!”
“Adrienne is so great with our one and half year old mini poodle. We board our puppy for three weeks with Adrienne. She sent me photos and videos and reassure me everything went well with my puppy. I was so anxious leaving my puppy for so long the very first time, but Adrienne is so professional and caring for my puppy. When my puppy came back, his temperament didn’t change. He came back to his regular routine right away. I take that as a very good sign. My puppy must have been taken very good care of. We will for sure be a regular with Adrienne from now on.”
“My experience boarding our pup Willy with Megan and her family was wonderful. Several weeks before our boarding and before I even confirmed the booking, Megan invited me to visit and make sure our pup would be comfortable or a good fit. Only once it seemed like it was going to be good for all of us did move forward. Willy stayed for a week. Megan was not only attentive to his usual routine but kept us updated with photos and notes about how he was feeling (he gets anxiety over storms). I really made us feel good about our decision to try Rover for the first time and Megan in particular. We'd definitely do it again. Thank you, Megan!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since high school and have 8+ years of experience. I grew up on a farm, so being around animals has always been a big part of my life. I’ve also helped care for my sister’s dogs, including disabled dogs that required extra attention and patience. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs, and understand how to adjust care based on their needs. I work virtually, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and give pets consistent attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I’m a huge animal lover and vegan, so I take caring for animals very seriously and treat every pet like my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine since I work virtually and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to be home throughout the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, regular walks, and stick closely to their normal routine. Whether it’s drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays, I can easily adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always take the time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, and any special needs to make sure they feel secure and stress-free. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and even disabled dogs that require extra care and patience. I keep a clean, calm environment and provide close supervision at all times. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you always feel confident your pet is in good hands.
“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.”
“The perfect farm stay! I cannot say enough wonderful things about Michelle and Luke and their beautiful farm. From the moment I arrived, I felt completely at ease — and more importantly, so did my dogs. Tucker and Greta immediately took to them, and it was obvious how much love, patience, and experience they have with animals. Throughout the stay, Michelle sent the sweetest updates and photos, and it meant the world to see my dogs relaxed, happy, and truly treated like part of the family. Their home is warm, peaceful, and safe, and the open farm environment was a dream come true for my pups. I’m so grateful to have found such an incredible place for my dogs to stay. Michelle and Luke are exactly the kind of people you hope to meet on Rover — trustworthy, caring, communicative, and genuinely passionate about animals. I will absolutely be booking with them again. If you’re looking for a safe, loving, home-style stay where your dogs will be cared for like their own, this is the place. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Mary and her family cared for zucchini like he was their own!! I absolutely recommend your pet staying with them. Zucchini already can’t wait for me to go on another trip so he can see his friends again.”
“Rachel and Mike provided an outstanding boarding experience for MY CAT, Fluffy. Awesome!!!! From the moment I left her in their care, I knew she was in the best hands. They consistently went above and beyond, making sure Fluffy received plenty of love, attention, and treats. What really set them apart was the thoughtful updates they provided—seeing pictures of Fluffy enjoying her stay brought us so much peace of mind. Rachel and Mike’s dedication to Fluffy’s comfort was truly remarkable. They even covered additional expenses to ensure she had everything she needed until we could settle up with them. 😉 Their genuine passion for pets is clear in every interaction, and it made a world of difference. If you’re searching for a reliable and caring pet boarding power couple, look no further than Rachel and Mike. They treated Fluffy like their own, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend them for anyone who wants the best for their furry family members!”
“We really appreciated Ellyn's care for Debbie. She sent us great photos and updates, and took her to the dog park multiple times. Debbie was sad to leave and was clearly very happy and comfortable there. Thank you, Ellyn!!”
“Sharon took great care of our Maggie! It was our first time with Sharon, a somewhat last minute booking, and we are so glad to have found her. Maggie was her normal self when she came home, happy and healthy, which is the tell all of a good sitter.”
“I had to leave my pup for the first time for a wedding so I was pretty nervous about it – Rae couldn’t have been better! She met us before the trip to make sure my dog was comfortable and even let my dog explore her house so that the environment was familiar when she returned for her stay. She was quick to respond to all of my texts and provided regular updates and photos. I would 100% recommend Rae and will be a returning client. Thanks Rae!!”
“Madyson was excellent with my dog Copper! His stay with her and Sparky involved lots of play time, cuddles, and great communication with us! Madyson is very attentive with any needs Copper has. I would highly recommend her!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I currently have 2 dogs of my own (a Boston terrier/Chihuahua & a Shih tzu/Chihuahua). I also have a cat. They are my babies & a huge part of the family. I have taken care of dogs of all sizes & I love them all. I would love to spoil your pooch while you're away & make them feel like a part of our family as well. I am a stay at home mom so I am home all day to cater to your dog's needs. I'm a stay at home mom of 2 preteen girls so we have plenty of time to give your pups all the love & attention they deserve. We have a big yard (over an acre) that we can walk & play with your pup. We try to follow your care routine as closely as possible.
About: Walking dogs and taking care of cats was a big part in my life. I’ve been walking dogs for about 8 years and I’ve taken care of cats for 10 years. I enjoy playing with my neighbors dogs when they are away and I will do the same for yours! I’m also currently apprenticing under a dog trainer and I’m more than willing to take on difficult situations! I’m currently in college for Zoology on dog behavior and I’m doing online courses so making time for your pets is not a difficult task! I am free every weekday anytime and anytime on the weekends! I take my dogs to a wonderful, secluded, and fenced in dog park. If your dog is not big on other animals I can change and adapt to whatever your pup is comfortable with! I also have 2 dog crates that are very comfortable and welcoming! I know how to give all types of medicines for animals.
“Willa had a wonderful time staying with Megan, her family, and their dog. She always takes a little while to settle in and Megan and her family were patient and kind, letting her approach at her own pace. By the end of her stay, she was romping around, playing, and totally comfortable. Megan communicated clearly and sent us photos to help us miss Willa a little less. We’re very glad to have found Megan’s family to sit for Willa!!”
“Kristina was amazing with Lincoln! He was very nervous and shy at first but she did amazing with him. She sent updates and pictures over the weekend so we could stay updated with how he was doing.”
“We are so thankful for Shelly’s help this weekend! She was communicative and flexible with pick up and drop off times. She gave our dog all the exercise and love he needs while we were away! Poe was in great hands with Shelly and we look forward to using her as our dog sitter in the future. ☺️”

Janet was wonderful with Luna! She was caring, attentive, and made sure Luna felt comfortable and loved. The pictures she updated me with says it all. Luna looks completely at home and so happy! 🐺❤️ I really appreciated the peace of mind knowing she was in great hands. Highly recommend Janet!
There really are not words to describe how well Song took care of our dog. She was very responsive, kept us up to date and the major thing was that she gave our dog love just as she would her own. Every picture and video we received showed that our Suggie was very happy. She was taken on walks, to the park and played with often. We would recommend Song to anyone. She was awesome!
This was our first time using Rover and Kyle was amazing. Having had our rescue dog for just 3 months, I wasn’t sure how the overnight boarding would go. He gave our Bugsy all the attention he needed to feel secure. He even sent pictures capturing Bugsy’s sleepover fun! I would definitely recommend him.
