Josh was a great fit for penny, Josh showed up a few days ahead of our scheduled appointment to make sure penny and him would get along while we were away. Josh showed up promptly and on time as we set out a schedule. I would recommend josh and use him in the future for our dogs needs if we go away again

Elyse went above and beyond. She had challenges with Callie and had to give her medication and shots twice a day and clean up after her as she had issues with her litter box as well. Unfortunately Callie became ill while I was away and Elyse promptly called my vet and took Callie into the office. She kept me updated every day on her visits with my two cats with pictures. I would recommend Elyse to anyone.

About: I have two 8 year old dogs that I’ve rescued from shelters. My wife and I have raised them since they were 7 months old. Both of my dogs are full of energy and love going for walks. I work 3pm-11pm so I am always available in the morning for walks especially if you have a high energy dog that needs to be walked and you are unable to due to work. I work 3pm-11pm so that makes me available everyday in the morning. I can do morning walks or lunchtime walks right before I leave for work. I have two medium size dogs with high energy drive that I take for walks daily. So I have experience to keep your dog safe on walks. I always walk at the dogs pace and let them sniff around and enjoy the environment they are in.

Janelle provided care for my doodle and is exceptional. Lola enjoyed her visits and I felt completely at ease knowing my pet was well taken care of from a professional pet sitter. Janelle is very accommodating and easy to work with. Highly recommended and I will definitely continue to request her assistance in the future.

About: Hi! I’m so happy you’re here! 🐾 • I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and caring for dogs is something that genuinely brings me joy. Whether your pup is playful and high-energy or more relaxed and cuddly, I take the time to understand their personality and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. 🫂 • I offer in-home boarding, which means your dog will be staying in a calm, clean, and loving environment — not a kennel. I keep my bookings limited so I can give each dog the attention they deserve, including walks, playtime, and plenty of affection throughout the day. 🫶🏾🤍 • I have experience with a variety of breeds, including high-energy dogs, and I’m happy to adjust to your dog’s routine to keep things as consistent as possible. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priority. 😊 • You can expect regular updates, photos, and open communication so you always feel connected and at ease while you’re away. 🙏🏾 • If your dog has any special needs, routines, or preferences, just let me know — I’m more than happy to accommodate! • I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! 🐶💛 I am a business owner - so my schedule is on my terms! I have a very flexible schedule, so definitely reach out with any dates you have in mind, and I’m sure we can work it out! I do my best to follow the animals lead, while also keeping in mind of producing what is best for their overall safety! :) We love to have fun over here!

Rachel was a great fit to look after my 5 cats while I was away for a week. She took the time to give attention to each one while making sure they were all taken care of. Her communication was great and she followed all of my requests on caring for my pets but also my home. It was so wonderful to know my babies were in great hands while I was on vacation. I will definitely be using her again, I trust her in my home and around my cats!

About: I'm Ashley and i'm 22 years old and have been around animals all my life! I grew up with a Golden Retriever and multiple cats! I got my first cat on my own around a year ago and she unexpectedly had 4 kittens. I made sure all of them were taken care of through any complication we had. I ended up keeping one of these wonderful kittens for myself! I have always been surrounded by dogs and cats and absolutely love them. I am looking into getting a dog for myself next year but want to make sure they would have enough space. I feel this is very important. I work full time during the week. I work from home Monday and Friday meaning I would be able to care for your pet throughout the day. On the days I am working in the office I will arrive home around 4:30 and are able to care for your pet anytime after! I'm currently working full time. I work two days from home, Monday and Friday and work Tuesday-Thursday in the office. I am able to stop by during my at home days, and always able to come after work around 4:30 any day of the week! I have two cats at home and will not be able to bring your animals into my home. I am more than willing to enter your home and make sure your animals are taken care of.

About: I have been an animal (especially dog) lover my whole life. I have cared for all sized and all aged dogs. Besides my experience with my own lab who passed in February, I worked for a private pet care company for over 3 years. This included staying overnight in client’s homes, making daily visits, walking dogs, and caring for all types of animals, including cats and bunnies. Besides this professional work, friends and family have always relied on me to take care of their animals since I was little. I also regularly volunteer at a local rescue to walk and care for the dogs in kennel. Please reach out and we can set up a meet & greet!! I work part-time through the week, so I will have plenty of time to drop in for daily visits- whether that be walks or fetch in the backyard. Overnight stays won’t be an issue for me as well as long as it fits into my calendar. I am well experienced in walking all types of dogs (my dog was very strong on walks so no worries if your dog pulls!). I will always listen to directions given by owners and respect their home and belongings. I have always been well-trusted with my previous clients and there have never been any issues.

About: Experienced and patient dog trainer. 10+ years of dog care and 4 years of training. Excellent at reading dog behavior and comfortable with pets of various temperaments. Currently working part-time with a very flexible schedule. I walk to the park daily, can take doggy friends with or without my 4yo Goldendoodle, who is amazing with other dogs. I can care for pets in my home or in theirs. In either case time can be spent playing, training, or just relaxing. I have laptop work that can be done if they sleep. I also have puzzles and treats and exercises for more energetic pets.

This is my first experience using Rover and I couldn’t be happier. Katherine has been wonderful with my anxious 10 year old labradoodle. His mid day check in session has made life so much easier. I don’t have to rush home from work worried that he has been alone all day. Communication has been great. I love the report cards. Thank you!
