“Ashley & Michael took all my requeata to heart. Truffles had a big doggie smile in several pictures and was sure to reintroduce me to their gentile doggo. I am thankful to them and this platform”

“Huge thanks to Josie for taking such amazing care of Happy for over 40 days! 🐶💛 She sent regular photo updates, which gave me and my husband so much peace of mind. It was so sweet to see Happy sleeping on the bed and sofa, playing with toys, and looking completely at Josie's home. You can truly tell that she treats Happy for like family. I’m so grateful — highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and responsible dog sitter!”

“Our 1 y/o charcoal lab Maverick recently stayed with Sarah and her family for an overnight boarding and cannot say enough good things about this first experience using her. I was very apprehensive, as we'd never used Rover or boarded our dog before, but Sarah and her family made me feel very at ease and were so extremely understanding when we were hours late picking him up due to weather as we were traveling back from our out of state trip. She was wonderful with keeping me up to date on his behavior and how he was handling the stay and sent numerous photos and videos while we were away. 10/10 experience!”

“Robin took great care of both of my dogs, one of whom is an anxious senior. She provided updates with photos and was accessible, courteous and professional. I highly recommend Robin as a reliable and caring dogsitter!”

“Constance was so great with Remi! I got daily updates, pictures and videos. She was able to go on walks and have plenty of play time! Constance bathed her and even cut her nails for me! Highly recommend Constance for your boarding needs! 10/10!”

About: I have had and cared for pets my entire life. Highly experienced with dogs and cats from puppy/kittens to seniors. I am comfortable enough with all animals that with some instruction I can care for anything. Experience in administering medication, even with cats. Patient with all animal personalities. I am very detail oriented and thorough. Reliable and great with instructions. I love animals and since semi-retiring I thought it would be nice to spend time caring for them when owners are on vacation or just need a little extra help. I practice reward based motivation. Semi-retired with plenty of time to play with and care for your animals. Happy to care for in home or take for walks. I can do multiple drop-ins a day. I am very good with instructions and will abide by any house rules and needs required for your pet. Experience house and pet sitting prior to joining Rover.

About: Vet nurse 10+ years. CPR Certified. The best quality care for your furry family members. I am trained and qualified to ensure that your pet has everything they want and need. I actively work at several veterinary hospitals in the area. I make my own schedule so I can be flexible. My professional career is directly related to pet care so it’s a huge part of my life. I take pet care very seriously. I love animals and treat them with compassion and respect. If they have an accident or make a mess I clean it and make sure they always have clean, dry, and comfortable bedding. Food and water bowls are filled and cleaned regularly. I will be as involved or uninvolved as they need to be. I let them show me what degree of interaction they’re comfortable with and I meet there where they’re at. If they are a lone wolf but still like to hang out from a distance that’s fine. Over the course of my career, I’ve been trained for almost every scenario regarding cats and dogs in almost any imaginable situation. With my emergency and critical care background I am always passively monitoring their vitals, general condition, and i will respond quickly, calmly, and appropriately should an issue or emergency arise. There is no better option for your pets care.
“Lori and her family were a perfect find. They took great care of my Jenny and were very understanding of an unexpected extra day of care due to some travel delays on my end which saved me a lot of stress. Thank you so much!”

About: Hi, I’m Angelica, a retired veteran and passionate pet lover who’s been dog sitting since 2017. After losing my service dog Buddy, I turned my love for animals into a mission to care for yours like family. I’m experienced with dogs of all kinds—puppies, seniors, and those with medical needs—happily administering medications and tailoring care to each pet’s unique personality. I adore taking dogs on car rides, hiking trails, or exploring nearby lakes, and I offer pick-up and drop-off services for an additional fee. From my time volunteering in Phuket, Thailand (2016) to walking dogs at Koh Lanta’s Animal Welfare, I bring a world of care to every furry friend. Whether it’s potty training, baths (just ask for pricing!), or cuddles on the bed (if allowed), your pet will feel right at home. I’m also comfortable with cats, farm animals, and endless games of fetch! I prefer meet-and-greets before bookings to ensure a perfect fit. Let’s give your four-legged family member the love and adventure they deserve with Best Buddy Dog Sitting! As a retired veteran, I’m all in for pet care! I’m available weekdays and weekends, offering sitting in my home or yours—wherever your pet feels happiest. My schedule revolves around giving them the love and attention they deserve. My home features a fenced yard—perfect for romping or leashed adventures—plus quiet, low-traffic streets for walks. If the weather’s good and they’re up for it, well-behaved pets join me on outings, from car rides to playdates with other friendly dogs. In your home, I adapt to their routine, ensuring they feel secure and cared for.
Riley dog parents share their Rover experiences
This was my first time using rover. Davia was nice and welcoming. Her little puppy loved playing with my beagle and vice versa. Unfortunately, my potty trained dog was very nervous and had accidents in her home. I don’t think Davina will want to watch him again, but I highly recommend her.
