“Meghanne did such an amazing job with Z.D. on her drop-in visit! I was very anxious as this was a first experience for me and my dog is definitely on the more energetic side, but after a very optimistic meet and greet, the drop-in itself went very well. Z clearly had a wonderful mid-day break and was very well taken care of. I will definitely be booking again!”
“Alison and Robert deserve 10 stars, but alas, this website only offers up to 5. Their care for kitty and communication with us was stellar. When they stopped over to drop off our key, kitty made a bee-line for Alison! (our cat actually RAN over to her!) Once you have had these wonderful people take care of your pets, you will never want anyone else!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs my entire life. I have experience with puppies, energetic dogs, and elderly dogs. I love to spend my free time outside with my own dog, helping him get more exercise! I am eager to expand my dog experience and to bond with more animals. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have open availability to watch your dogs! I am able to be flexible to find times to walk or take your pup for a potty break! If you require a longer stay, I just need to know at least 2 weeks in advance to ensure my schedule will align. I currently have a Catahoula Leopord Dog, he requires a lot of attention and outdoor time. He has a hard time sharing his space, so I would have to board at the clients home. While visiting at the clients home, I will ensure the pup receives plenty of exercise, cuddles, and as many potty breaks it needs! I have my own transportation so it’s not a problem to commute.
“Kendra did a great job caring for our dog and communicating with us. This allowed us to enjoy our time away without worrying about our dog. We will definitely book with her again!”
About: I've never been without a pet--my family has had Labs and Goldens since before I was born, so I was raised taking care of and training dogs of all ages and personalities. I understand how important it is to find a trustworthy person to look after your pet, so please don't hesitate to ask me anything that will help you and your fur babies feel more comfortable :) I work part-time 3 days a week, so I have plenty of spare time to visit and walk your pets! My schedule is flexible, so if you ever need to make an adjustment, just let me know! I've taken care of pets with a wide range of personalities, so I understand that different pets need different types of care. You know what's best for your pet, so let me know how you do things and I will do my best to keep things consistent, familiar, and comfortable for your dogs!
About: I’m not just a pet sitter — I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience that goes beyond the basics. I’ve volunteered at a local dog rescue, fostered dogs in need of extra love and care, and have looked after beloved pets for friends and family for years. What truly sets me apart is the level of compassion and experience I bring. Whether it’s a high-energy pup, a laidback senior dog, or even a small pet like a hamster or guinea pig, I take the time to understand and care for each animal as if they were my own. You can trust that your pet — no matter how big, small, or quirky — will be safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Caring for animals is already part of my daily routine. I have a guinea pig named Chewy, and making sure he’s happy, clean, and well-fed is just part of my day. I also help care for our family dog, Pierre, whether it’s taking him for a walk after work or helping my parents with him during the day. Because of this, I’m already in the rhythm of daily pet care—from feeding schedules and exercise to playtime and attention. I don’t just make time for animals—I naturally build my day around them. When caring for pets in your home, I always treat the space with the same respect I would want in my own. I follow your rules closely, pay attention to routines, and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m a rule-reader, not a rule-bender—whether it’s specific feeding instructions, leash preferences, crate routines, or off-limit areas, I make sure to stick to your expectations. Your home is your pet’s safe space, and I’m there to keep it that way.n

About: I enjoy caring for animals and have experience with cats of all ages, kitten to senior. I've had cats my whole life and have experience with bottle feeding, medication administration and diabetic care. I also have experience with dog sitting and walking. I've been volunteering with a local rescue since 2019 and I'm passionate about helping animals find the perfect home and live happy lives.

“Hannah was excellent! From the first meet and greet through the two drop-ins. I appreciated her prompt communication and follow-up. We will be looking to book her in the future!”
“Meg is fabulous. She took excellent care of our three fur babies while we were on vacation and came to the rescue when our flight was delayed. She was very understanding and added the extra day to our booking for us. That was very helpful since we were in an area with spotty wifi. I highly recommend her.”
About: Im used to being around different dogs my whole life I’ve had my own dog for three years. I’ve also taken care of dogs for my friends and family. Right now I am not working since and I’m only 18 so I’m available whenever you need me unless it’s when I’m busy and doing something. I care for my pets by having a lot of toys so if they want to play with there toys they can also I walk them so they get the exercise they need.
About: I’ve cared for two puppies together. They have become best friends despite their different personalities. I’ve also taken care of a senior male dog who has slowed down greatly. I work part time and I also attend school for marriage and family therapy but my classes are all at night and online. I just want to incorporate more dogs into my daily routine since my current living quarters won’t allow dogs in the home. I miss being around furry friends. I will follow the instructions given by the client. Make sure you properly greet the animal so I don’t spook them, and make sure to give treats if permitted by the client.
“Andrew was absolutely fantastic! He took care of my Loki for 15 days and I couldn't have asked for better service. He was incredibly reliable and flexible, which made my trip so much less stressful. Amazing service – 5 stars!”
“Jess once again took care of my 3 cats with drop-in visits during my 9 day cruise vacation. Every day I received updates via the Rover app along with pictures. She did a great job and I recommend her services!”
“This is my first Rover experience and I couldn't be happier. I didn't have a chance to meet David before he came to the house to let out Newton Friday night and again Saturday morning. David asked a lot of questions and made me feel comfortable beforehand, while he was here, he took and sent photos of my happy boy and I'm really impressed with how it all went. I will definitely contact David again in the future for any drop in visits I may need. Thanks David!!!”

Valerie S.
“When my dog, Stu, was still with us, Valerie demonstrated time and time again that I could trust her with my best friend when work/school kept me away from home. This was especially true as he got older (he had issues with incontinence, poor vision, and hearing loss) and required a lot of patience and TLC. I’d trust Valerie and highly recommend Valerie to take care of your furry friend and know that they are in the best care possible.”
