“Once again he was amazing! Cobra was very happy and excited to see him again! He will definitely continue being my sitter! He treated him like a part of his on family! 🥰”

“Kerri R. Is the BEST! I’ve never left Toby with anyone. She was so understanding, sent pictures & updates daily. She has a gift, maybe she’s a dog whisperer! Toby was so happy. I will definitely seek her out again. Thank you❤️”

“Chris and Cass were awesome sitters! They are really kind, cool people who love dogs. My Sammy had a blast staying at their place and I know he loved it. I actually felt bad taking him back home because he was having so much fun :) My pup Sammy is a pretty nervous and anxious dude around strangers, but not Chris and Cass. He loved them both and I’m so happy to have met them.”

“Tara is a fantastic Dog Sitter. It’s the first time my dog is away from here for a long time and she was very happy being at Tara‘s house. I enjoyed getting the photos. She also adjusted to my change in the days that I scheduled to be with her, which is very helpful for me during this time of my surgery”

“Enaes did a fantastic job handling my very nervous pooch and was very flexible when I was stuck out of town due to the weather. She provided updates and I felt comfortable having Pheo in her care.”

“Laura was great with my dog Blue. Blue seemed to really enjoy just hanging out in the fenced in yard and lounging on the patio. Laura made sure she gave my dog plenty of attention and love and shared lots of pictures. We will definitely use Laura again!”


“Jonah took wonderful care of our old guy, Cooper, while we were away for over a week. He sent several photos of Cooper and updates during the stay which were appreciated. I highly recommend Jonah and his family!”

“Whitley is the absolute best! Gave our dog so much love, movement, and fun! Marshall loved playing with her dog too. She was super accommodating when our flight was delayed too.”

“Watney loves visiting Anna and her dog Ruby! He always has a buddy with him throughout the day and Anna keeps an eye on him too. Ruby is kind enough to share her lounging bed and blankets. Couldn’t ask for a better stay!”

“I was nervous because this was the first time I'd left Picasso with someone he didn't know. Ekow was extremely kind and sent updates of a happy dog daily, which made me feel much better. We've found a new sitter and I will definitely be reaching out anytime we need a sitter. Five stars!!”

“Kadi was amazing!!! This was Nina’s first boarding experience and we couldn’t have asked for a better one. Kadi was very kind and professional. She kept us informed with pictures and updates throughout Nina’s stay. She even made Nina the cutest bandanna !! My family will be booking with her in the future for sure!!!”

“Queeny always takes such great care of Kaju! We went away on a two-week trip and I don’t think Kaju wanted to leave Queeny’s - even running back to her for one last goodbye! She sends photos and status updates on any new friends he has made during his stay. I know I can trust her to take great care of Kaju and I will always recommend her!! Your pup will be in great hands 😊”

“Julie was very special with our two dogs. She sent us pictures all the time and we can tell the dogs had a great time with Emmett. They were very happy when we picked them up. We are very pleased and happy to have her taking care of our special boys.”


About: Hello! My pet experience consists of having my own doggy for the past 20 years. I rescued my older dog and then got a new puppy. My old Rose passed away but I had to give her eye medication and oral medication everyday so I am comfortable with that. I also grew up with family dogs and cared for those dogs. My availability to watch your dog is very flexible. I work from home a most days a week so it is a high chance that I could work from home while caring for your pup. I am a very caring person. I have a PhD in human development and family science and work in the social work field. I have a giant heart and would love to care for your doggie! As a stay-at-home worker, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide consistent attention, timely feedings, regular potty breaks, and plenty of play and cuddle time. My flexible schedule means I can easily accommodate pets’ needs, whether that’s sticking to a specific routine or being available for spontaneous walks and care. Being home also helps me monitor behavior closely and respond quickly to any changes, making pets feel secure, loved, and well looked after. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment tailored to each animal’s needs. In my home, pets have access to cozy rest areas, regular outdoor time, and plenty of affection and play throughout the day. I maintain a calm, clean space and follow any routines or special instructions provided. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and stick closely to the pet’s established schedule to minimize stress. I provide regular updates, ensure fresh food and water, maintain cleanliness, and give each pet the love and attention they’re used to.
“Michelle was great! She was very kind and attentive with our 9 week old pup. She was very responsive and kept us updated during our international travel. Highly recommend!”
“Dawn was wonderful with my puppy George. I was little nervous leaving him for the first time but she put my nerves at ease. I could tell when I came to pick hime up he was well cared for and happy. I will for sure be using her again in the future.”

“Daisy LOVED her time with Amie & her family. Amie was so kind and updated me throughout the stay. Daisy had the best Thanksgiving with Amie’s puppies. Thank you so much for taking such great care of her!!! Highly recommend Amie ❤️”

About: I’m a dedicated and attentive dog owner with hands-on experience caring for my own dog every day, including feeding, walking, playtime, basic grooming, and maintaining a consistent routine.

I’m comfortable with exercise needs, administering basic care, reinforcing positive behavior, and making sure dogs feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Caring for my dog has given me practical experience and a genuine passion for working with dogs of different temperaments and energy levels. I’m available full-time, which allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week, including weekdays, weekends, mornings, afternoons, evenings, and holidays.

I understand how important consistency and reliability are for pets and their owners, and my schedule allows me to give each dog the time, attention, and care they deserve. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a secure, loving environment in a safe home with a fully fenced yard, Your dog would be hanging out with me and Chewy in a large finished basement, he is free to explore and do anything he wants in the room and chose any place to sleep, I have a huge couch that Chewy sleeps on or he will have a dog bed with covers, his choice! Fenced yard and supervised outdoor play and exercise. I let the dogs use the bathroom in the backyard. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to create a calm, pet-friendly space where dogs feel comfortable and protected. My small dog is friendly and helps create a welcoming atmosphere, while I always prioritize careful introductions and close supervision to ensure every pet feels safe. I’m committed to maintaining a clean, secure environment where pet parents can feel confident their dog is being cared for like family!
Riverdale dog parents share their Rover experiences
Elisabeth did a great job making our little guy feel right at home. It’s clear she cares a lot about understanding every dog’s individual needs-she asked thoughtful questions during our meet & greet and jotted down notes. She went above & beyond and even had a Christmas present wrapped for our dog to open on Christmas Day while he was staying with her. It’s hard leaving your fur babies behind but having a sitter like Elisabeth make’s it a lot easier.

I used Rover the first time during the Thanksgiving Holiday. I’m so glad Krystal was available to watch my puppy after my initial plans fell through. Krystal sent daily pictures and videos of Ace while I was away. I would use Krystals services again and would definitely recommend.

Danielle is amazing! From the moment we met her, she welcomed my husband and I into her home to show us where Gizmo would be staying. Gizmo quickly felt at home and got along wonderfully with her dogs. Throughout his stay, Danielle sent us plenty of photo updates, which was so reassuring. We're just passing through town, but if we're ever back in the area, we’ll definitely have Danielle watch him again.
