“Bailey is awesome! She came on very short notice to take care of Pancho. I really appreciate her great care for my babe. She does a great job.”
“Brittany is great ! This was my first time using rover but she was kind enough to come out and meet my pups before actually starting. I have two big kinda crazy dogs and she knows how to handle them. My big guy who is normally a little shy loved her right away and went in his kennel and brought her his toy ? will definitely continue using her !”
“We are so grateful for the care and attention you show our girls. It’s a huge relief to know they are in such good hands when we travel. Thank you so much!!!”
“Merrick is fantastic and I will absolutely have him watch my dogs in the future. My dogs are usually anxious when I travel, but did great in Merrick's care. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone.”
“Shannon did an excellent job checking in our puppers! Looking forward to having Shannon care for them on a regular basis while we are at work :)”
About: I’ve had family dogs almost my entire life that i’ve helped care for! i got my own puppy about 5 years ago & ever since then my home has been a revolving door for foster pups, strays, & just any dog that’s needed a home along the way! I work part time, around 20 - 25 hours a week. I usually only work 3 days per week so i’m free the rest of the week & every weekend! I have experience with dogs of all sizes & breeds! I’ve crate trained all the dogs that have been in my care so I’m very familiar & comfortable with putting dogs in crates, taking them out, & just using a crate in general. I currently have 2 large dogs (irish wolfhound & pitbull) so i have plenty of practice taking care of & walking strong dogs & dogs that pull or lunge.
“Damaris gave carr, love and affection to my dog and cat. she stepped up in a pinch when my sitter had a family emergency. Will definitely get het to housesit again!”
“Lidia is amazing!! Rosie girl gets the best care from her every time she comes over and she’s always going the extra mile for her which we both love and appreciate so much 🥰”
“I thought I give Rover a try with a drop in service with Tara. She's responsive with messages and we were able to meet and greet within the same day of request. My dog seemed to be ok with Tara when they met, and Tara is definitely passionately about dogs from meeting her twice and seeing her spending time with my dog. Glad Tara was able to help me with taking my dog out for a break in the middle of the day and give him refreshments. Will request for her help again in the future.”
About: I provide dedicated, inclusive care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and life stages. With proficiency in administering both oral and injectable medications, I am uniquely equipped to care for senior dogs and those with specific medical requirements. Whether it’s the high energy of a puppy or the gentle pace of a senior, I offer reliable, compassionate attention tailored to your dog's individual needs. As a dedicated educator, I bring a high level of organization, patience, and reliability to my pet care services. I am currently offering full-time summer availability with maximum schedule flexibility to accommodate your needs. During the academic year, I maintain a consistent schedule and am available for late afternoon, evening, and weekend care. I offer a "home-away-from-home" experience where your dog is treated like family. My household includes two resident cats, making this a perfect environment for cat-friendly dogs. I prioritize frequent outdoor time, with potty breaks every 3–4 hours and daily walks tailored to your dog's energy level. Your pet will have full access to comfortable furniture and will receive plenty of one-on-one affection. For those allowed a special treat, local "pup cup" outings are a favorite summer tradition! I am committed to making sure your dog’s stay is active, safe, and filled with companionship
“Our dog has a serious autoimmune disease that requires daily medications so we really needed someone responsible and reliable to take care of him. He also has a lot of anxiety around new people, but Jenny accommodated to our needs and took the time to help us all feel comfortable. She took wonderful care of our dog while we were out of town. We will be requesting for her to care for our dog in the future! I would recommend her to anyone!!”
“This is the first time Grace helped us with a drop in visit in the middle of the day and she was awesome! She arrived right on schedule and spent some quality time with our pup. We look forward to having her stay for some overnights in the future.”
“Jasmine was great! She sent multiple pictures with each visit and made me feel like my pup was well taken care of! Great communication and was able to give my Dutch some oral medication. Would for sure recommend!”
About: I was raised caring for all types of animals, but I have a particular love for dogs and cats! Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with their pets for over 10 years of my life. My experience includes feeding, administering medications, walking, playtime, and overnight care. As an adult, I've cared for my own dogs for the past 5+ years and understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone dependable who will love and care them as much as you do! My schedule is very flexible this summer, allowing me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I'm available for boarding, drop-ins, and walks during both weekdays and weekends. I am happy to adapt to each pet's usual routine and needs! My husband and I have a large fence yard and a home with plenty of space for pets to feel comfortable. We also have a friendly male collie/retriever mix who enjoys playing, but he can be easily separated if your dog prefers their own space. I'm comfortable using crates or separate rooms as needed, and I'm happy to arrange a meet-and-greet with my dog to help ensure everyone feels safe and relaxed. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to keep their normal environment and routines consistent to reduce stress. I'm respectful of your home and able to follow detailed instructions. I'm also happy to send updates and photos so you can feel connected while away. Whether in my home or yours, my goal is to provide a clean and loving environment that feels as close to home as possible for every pet in my care.
“Maggie’s was quick to respond and easy to work with. While I was away she checked in with me and also shared updates about how my cats were doing. I will definitely be using her services again.”

Leigh is so warm and wonderful and clearly has a love for animals! I have had her take care of my kitties twice (so far) while I’ve travelled for work—they love her!! She sends such thoughtful messages and pictures of my cats. It certainly eases my anxiety knowing they are in such caring, capable hands.
