“Pandora had such a great time! My American Bulldog can be a handful sometimes, but Danielle made her feel right at home. I got daily updates and photos, which really put me at ease while I was away. It was clear she was well cared for and loved during her stay. I highly recommend and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Matt and Michelle took great care of Sydney and Lucy while we were gone for 9 days. They kept us updated while we were gone and sent us photos. We would use them again! Thanks guys!”
“I cannot say enough about the great care Dawn gave to my baby while I was on vacation. The daily communication to keep me posted of how he's doing... The pictures - which I appreciated deeply... The love and attention that she gave to Sharpie.. no words. I highly recommend Dawn to care for your fur babies... I know I will definitely use her services again. Thank you Dawn!”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention | give every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every dog has a different personality, routine, comfort level, and set of needs, and I take the time to get to know them rather than using a one size fits all approach. I'm experienced with dogs of different energy levels and personalities, including playful, high energy dogs as well as more laidback pups who prefer a quiet, relaxed environment. I'm comfortable maintaining feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication routines, and other instructions provided by their owners. I'm also patient with puppies who are still learning and happy to provide extra attention and structure to senior dogs who may need a slower pace or additional care. Most importantly, I treat pet sitting as more than simply stopping by to feed a dog. I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you're away, and I want you to have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. I'm dependable, communicative, and will happily send updates and photos so you don't feel like you're missing out while you’re away. I work from home, which allows pet care to fit naturally into my daily routine. I’m able to provide plenty of companionship, regular potty breaks and walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day rather than leaving pets alone for long periods of time. My schedule also gives me flexibility to accommodate each pet’s individual routine, whether they need frequent breaks, scheduled meals, medication, extra playtime, or simply someone nearby to make them feel comfortable. I enjoy having pets around while I work and am happy to make their care an important part of my day. Please no dropoffs before 8am and no pick ups after 8pm. Thank you 😊 Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I want every pet to feel comfortable, secure, and treated like part of the family. I have a fenced in yard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time, play, and potty breaks without being exposed to traffic or other outdoor hazards. I’m also happy to follow each pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions from their owner, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and individual preferences. I keep a close eye on pets throughout their stay and make sure they have a clean, comfortable, and welcoming environment. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or visiting a client’s home, I treat their space, belongings, and instructions with the same respect I would want for my own pets. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Note: If your pet is ill with a communicable sickness, please keep them home. I have two dogs in my home, and I greatly appreciate your understanding.
About: ** I took some time off of Rover and I am back with a limited schedule due to work hours** I am an avid dog lover and dog mom to 2 pups. Most of my life has revolved around dogs and I wouldn’t want it any other way! At a young age, I was trusted by all of the nieghbors to dog sit. After college, I was fortunate enough to foster a few rescues from a local humane society. Fostering dogs was a very rewarding experience as it gave me my 2 babies, Milo and Bear. Unfortunately, Bear and Milo have now passed and I miss them terribly everyday. I currently have a Doberman named Ambrose and an Australian Shepard named Max. They are a bonded pair and have so much energy! I have experience with very large dogs and puppies as young as 2 months old— but I am comfortable with all breeds! I am available for dog walking, house sitting, and drop-in visits. If you would like me to board your dog in my home, I welcome that as well! As long as they are dog friendly; my pups would love a new friend 😊 During the day on weekdays I work a full-time hybird job with flexibility. My in office days are Monday and Tuesday so usually unavailable those days. I am free for walks/drop ins during the week/weekend as well as house sitting. I am a very active person alone and with my own dogs. They get walks 1-2x per day and get lots of exercise in our backyard. I would love to hang out with your pup and play! I will come to you to make them feel more comfortable in their own environment.
“Deb was amazing! We went on an overseas trip and left Boots with her for a full week. She sent pictures and videos throughout our trip, which was really appreciated. When we came to drop him off she was ready to greet us and had prepared for his arrival. Boots got along great with her pets and was clearly very comfortable in her care. I would highly recommend her and we will definitely be choosing her again the next time we go out of town.”
About: Hi! We’re a couple who genuinely love dogs. We’ve also spent plenty of time looking after our family members’ pets, so we know how much they become part of the family. We both work in healthcare, so we’re used to being patient, responsible, and paying attention to the little things. We know every dog has their own personality and routine, and we’ll do our best to keep them comfortable and happy while you’re away. We’re excited to meet some new furry friends, whether that means going for walks, playing, giving lots of belly rubs, or just keeping them company. 🐶❤️ We both work full-time in a hospital, so our schedules vary, but we’re upfront about our availability and only accept bookings we can commit to. We’ll follow your pet’s routine, give them plenty of love and attention, and keep you updated with photos while you’re away. 🐾❤️ Your pet’s safety and comfort come first! We live in a clean, cozy first-floor apartment with a safe and welcoming environment for pets. We’ll keep a close eye on your fur baby, follow their routine, and give them plenty of love, cuddles, and playtime. ❤️
“Beth was great with my dog Brandy. Brandy was well taken care of and Beth had prompt communication and updates about my dog while I was out of town. Due to a snow storm my return was delayed by a day and Beth was able to accommodate the last minute change. I would definitely recommend Beth to anyone looking for a great dog sitter with a spacious fenced in yard.”
“Leaving my boy with Maggie and her family is what I truly hope anyone can receive from a sitter when leaving their pups. He was very well taken care of. Thank you!”
About: I understand how important pets are and how they are one of the family. Pet care quality is of paramount importance. I've had dogs and cats my whole life and now I'm offering that experience and level of care for your loved one. I am home full time now doing computer and electronic repair which leaves me with a very flexible schedule. I also sell essential oils for pets if that is of interest as well. I am dedicated to the wellbeing of pets so you can count on a quality experience. I am sensitive to people's specific requests when it comes to the care, feeding, and sometimes medication aspects needed as well. I try to keep my customers close by for the convenience and efficiency. I am an entrepreneur and stay at home dad, so I am available and flexible to suit your pets needs throughout the day. We treat pets as another member of the family. We treat pets as part of the family, including them in the daily activities. We do a lot of walking and playing as well to get your pets exercise.
“Darrilyn was fantastic! Super patient and friendly. My dog is very shy around other dogs and new environments and Darrilyn really took the time to make sure she acclimated and was happy. It was a great experience.”
About: Hi! I’m a proud dog mom to two Cavapoos—Max (6 months old) and Charlie (1 year old). They are truly the love of my life, and having them has completely changed my world. I care for every dog as if they were my own, with the same love, attention, and patience I would hope someone gives to Max and Charlie. Your dog will be treated like family here. We also have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and enjoy their time outside. I look forward to caring for your pup! I work 2 days a week and I’m at home the rest of the week , so I would be more than happy to have your baby here ! I care for pets at my own house , providing pee pads and a lot of love and play time ! I also have a back yard for them to go potty!
“Our dog Marty had a wonderful stay at Maria’s house. He was all smiles when we picked him up. I would recommend Maria to anyone who likes their dog to have fun interacting with other dogs.”
“Ingrida always does a wonderful job taking care of my dog, Sadie. She has stayed with Ingrida several times and now Sadie gets very excited when we pull up to her house. I know she is well taken care of because she is always a happy dog when I pick her up. I would recommend Ingrida because it’s obvious she is a dog lover and treats your pet as her own!”
“I left my 2 dogs with Shaneika for 5 days during a trip out of town and she was AMAZING. She provided a lot of pictures/videos and updates while taking care of them and when I had come to pick them up they wanted to stay and hang out! I’d strongly recommend booking with Shaneika if looking for a pet sitter and will definitely be using her again if I need a sitter in the future! If I could give 10 stars I would!”
“Lynda was so great to our 2 girls! It was their first time being boarded and away from us. She made us feel okay leaving them in her care. She has such a great set up for the dogs with her fenced in yard and they loved her big picture window with a ledge.She sent us plenty of pictures while we were away and is very quick to reply. She is wonderful!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oswego
Moose enjoyed his stay and company with Kathleen/ doggos! She is so warm and welcoming. Taking care of a 180 pound Saint Bernard is no small task, but she loved him like he was her own. I highly recommend to anyone in the area and will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!
Jen and Drew are the best!!!! I don’t think I can say enough great things about them. My 2 dogs stayed at their home for over 4 months during a huge transition in my life when I could not have the dogs with me. They welcomed them into their home, made them a part of the family, and cared for them so well. My furbabies were well loved and pampered. I will be eternally grateful to them, and to Rover for connecting us, so that I could rest easy that they were ok while I couldn’t be with them. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. They have a great yard and my dogs met so many new fur friends during their stay. I highly recommend them for boarding and/or doggie daycare. Thank you, Jennifer and Drew!!!!!
This is my second booking with Alexandra and I’ve got to say, she really is the best. Milo gets along with her and her family so well. She sends lots of pics and updates and gives my pup a vacation while I am on vacation. I would definitely book her again. She is an amazing sitter
Erin is outstanding! From the moment you meet her, and are greeted by the cute little chalkboard welcoming each of her furry friends for the day, it is clear she loves her job... And the ones she is caring for. She sends lots of pictures and videos so you know dog is having a great time with friends! Thanks aaron! Booster can't wait to come back!
Marko and his beautiful family took care of Cabo very well. He is very prompt in communicating, keeps updated regularly, also sent pictures whenever we asked. Cabo was so happy there. He was pretty clean. Overall wonderful experience. I would definitely recommend other dog owners to take his services for dog siting / boarding if required.
