“Dana responded quickly, communicated clearly throughout the process, and was absolutely fantastic with our pups! She gave them the extra love and spoiling they needed while we ventured to Niagara Falls for the day- and she even gave us some great tips! Would highly recommend and certainly would use again!”
“Erica and her pack are amazing! Nitro had so much fun with her and the dogs. Erica was so thoughtful to send videos and photos of some of the antics that Nitro was up to with the other pups. Definitely a wonderful experience and we can’t wait for the next visit. Erica is such a kind, cool, and impressive person, and she understands dogs so well. Nitro was immediately at ease with her and had a fantastic stay! We are very grateful for all the care and kindness! Thank you Erica!”

About: I’ve had pets growing up my entire life! The level of personal care I give every animal sets me apart. I don’t just feed and walk your pets — I take time to understand their routines, personalities, and quirks so they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply quiet companionship, I tailor my care to match what each pet needs most. I treat every furry friend like my own, keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in loving, reliable hands. I currently work part time as a teachers assistant and home pretty much everyday. I’m off on the weekends. So I have plenty of time and energy to play with your pet! When your pet stays with me, they’re treated like part of the family. My home is safe, welcoming, and full of love, and each pet gets the individual attention they deserve. We make sure every animal feels comfortable, happy, and cared for. • Family Time & Play: Your pet enjoys playtime, cuddles, and fun activities with all of us. • Feeding & Health: I follow your pet’s routine, including meals and medications, to keep them healthy and comfortable. • Exercise & Adventure: Dogs enjoy walks, yard play, and indoor games, while cats and smaller pets get enriching activities tailored just for them. • Comfort & Safety: Your pet will have cozy spaces to rest and feel secure with our family. I have a huge backyard for play and plenty of room inside our home. . Pet Care At Clients Home: When I take care of pets in your home, my goal is to provide love, attention, and consistency while respecting your pet’s routine. I treat your home and pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. • Updates for You: We love sending photos and messages so you can see your pet thriving while you’re away. My goal is to make sure every pet in my home feels loved, safe, and happy—just like they would with their own family.
“Ashley is so kind and educated. She made me feel so comfortable leaving my pups with her. She is patient and understanding of dog behaviors and boundaries and was willing to accommodate with love. We traveled to her from Indiana and will use her again on our next trip and strongly recommend that you do the same!”


“Dhizzy is the best!! This was Milo's first visit with her and he came back exhausted from all of his fun!! He absolutely loves her and I will definitely have her watch him again. I LOVED the pictures she would send, he looked like he had a blast!! Thank you for Milo's awesome day!!”

“Jamie was amazing with our dog! She kept us updated with photos and messages, which we really appreciated. Our pup is usually very attached and gets anxious when we're not around, but with Jamie she was totally calm and happy! Would definitely make another booking!”

“Jenn and Brian were outstanding. I gave them a long list of details about my puppy and they were able to accommodate everything. I was given a bunch of pictures throughout the day of him having a great time. Burned all his energy and had a bunch of fun. Didn’t want to leave as we were pulling away! Would highly recommend.”

About: Give your furry friends the jolly, experienced care they deserve! Retired and ready to pamper your pets with love and attention! I am retired and have time. I'm currently retired. I have time to care for pets, walking, checking in, as well as overnights! I have availability most days and times throughout the week. I have a fenced yard and no pets so my home and backyard have space and comfort for your pet. I am also open to caring for your pet at your home if your pet is more comfortable that way.
“Rosalyn was exactly what you want in a doggy sitter and went above and beyond to make Marli’s very few experiences away from home exceptional! Marli and their doggy Lilly had a great day together. I would highly recommend Rosalyn to anyone who wants a sitter that makes your doggy feel special and loved. 🐾💚💜”

“We appreciated Kelly and her family suggesting a meet & greet and a trial day to see if our dog would be a good fit before committing to a long stay. They clearly communicated to us potential concerns with our dog staying for a long time and that shows they care about the safety of our dog and other dogs under their care :)”

“Kristen was really nice to accept a late 11:30pm pick-up that I requested when I made the booking. Jett was very calm and ready to retire for the night when I picked him up. I’m sure he enjoyed using up all his energy with Ruby and Izzy.”

“Carol is truly a dog lover! It is great that she took our last minute booking as we came in to town to sightsee. Our girl was very well taken care of giving us some free time!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes for over 13 years. I grew up with pets, volunteered walking dogs at the Humane Society, and neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets. With my own dog of 13 years, I’ve experienced the full journey from puppyhood to senior care, giving me the skills to handle all life stages with patience and compassion. I’m a stay-at-home mom/small business owner with a very flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time to devote to caring for your pets. Daily walks, playtime, and cuddles can easily fit into my routine. I’m available weekdays and weekends, and I’ll make sure your dog gets the attention and care they deserve while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I have a fenced good sized yard where pups can play and a dog to keep them company. I can also crate your dog if preferred. Since I have a young child, I will take on dogs who are good with kids, making for a loving, social, and family-style environment. Also good with other dogs and respect my older dogs boundaries of being cared for in my home. Within the past year we lost my first baby my black lab, my chocolate lab would love the company here and there of another dog that matches her lazy chill vibe to have around for overnights.
“Our Max had a wonderful time in Monique’s care. We took advantage of the pick up & drop off service, (worth every cent or the additional charge), as we were traveling in a RV parked at the KOA. She sent many photo up dates throughout the long day 9am - 10pm. He enjoyed socializing and walking with the other dogs and a lot of lap time. Max was very excited to see us and told all about his days adventures in his silly way of conversing with us. 🐾❣️🐾”


“We were traveling on Road Trip with our dog and two boys. We wanted to see Niagara Falls but knew that our hotel wouldn’t let us keep our dog in the room unattended. We had Reilly stay with Mary for the day while we took in the sights. Reilly had a great time with Mary and her dogs. THANK YOU!!”

“We were very pleased with Andreas' care. Very friendly, reliable, calm, and our dog seemed quite comfortable with him, despite often having separation anxiety. Also appreciated the pro-level photography.”

“Mary was amazing. We have a dog with dementia. She was so good with him. We didn't worry for a minute as we went off to explore beautiful Niagra Falls. She was really flexible with time and was gracious enough to pick up and deliver our dogs. I highly recommend her.”

Pekin dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jodie was fantastic! I booked daycare two days before I came into town and she was very flexible and accommodating with my schedule. She had a great, large, secure yard and my dog (a Great Pyrenees) spent the day lounging both in and outside. My pup gots lots of pets and attention, and (with permission) got a few special treats and bones. I will definitely use Jodie to care for my pup next time I am in town.

Marty was awesome and shared photos within the first hour. She is a very calm and laid back sitter with a beautiful home and yard. We really appreciate that she quickly responded with acceptance of the reservation request…. With very little notice! Highly recommend!
