“Gina was very thorough and organized with her notes for our daily routines for our two dogs and one elder cat. Spoiled them dearly with love while we were away on our trip, kept in touch with consistent communication for how her visits were. We would definitely recommend her if new to the area like we were!”


“Wendy took care of my very particular not too friendly tortie car for a week of twice a day visits. Chloe loved her and played with Wendy, purred and allowed her to touch her. I am over the moon happy with Wendy's care of Chloe including administrating 3 meds a day. Our next vacation will definitely have Chloe cared for by Wendy.”


“Lindsay was consistent and her notes were thorough with a personal touch which gave me comfort knowing my cats were getting lots of TLC while I was gone.”


About: I’ve had a furry friend my entire life, and have looked after animals that need immediate or intense care, or are in need of a home for 12 years. I work from home and am able to take breaks as needed to care for pets. I have most things delivered and rarely leave home for more than an hour at a time. I have a fenced in 1/2 acre backyard where pets can run around and play! I live in a low traffic area making it ideal for taking walks.

“As always, I never have to worry about my pup when Veronica stops in. Very professional and punctual, and I know my pup is in great, caring hands!”


“Awesome first time booking with Brooke! On short notice and during the holidays; she stepped up without hesitation and didn’t disappoint. Self-sufficient and communicative on every visit. An excellent experience for all involved! Definitely hope to work with her again in the future.”


“Breanna was awesome taking care of my two kitties. She sent updates with amazing pictures, that had me less anxious about leaving my kitties at home while I was on vacation!”


“Christine was very kind and responsive and sent pictures during her drop-in. She cleaned up a little mess one of our babies made and even left some homemade dog treats. Great first experience with Rover, thank you!”


“Libby was a God send. We are so thankful for finding her on Rover. We have been worried for a long time about finding the right sitter for our Archie dog and Libby is the perfect person. I can’t wait to use her again! We were lucky enough to have another sitter turn us down and then we found Libby. Our Meet and Greet was as smooth as possible. When my husband made a mistake on the date and Libby showed up when she was not needed, she graciously came back the next day at the correct time. We couldn’t have asked for anything more for our dog, who happens to require a little extra attention. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Libby!”


“Kelly was available this time for dropping in on our cat. She was wonderful!! She does a great job and writes a great update after each visit!”


“Rodney was great. He came to greet my pups ahead of the service date. He sent me pics throughout his visits and my pups were content and seemed happy when we got home. We will request Todney again.”


About: My whole life my parents have had dogs so I’ve grown up around dogs since I was an infant, this also means that they’ve had quite a few different puppies over the years and I have helped train them. I am the go to person for all of my friends and family. If they need someone to watch their pets while they’re gone I absolutely love seeing their animals and taking care of them and I treat everyone’s animals as if they’re my own and do the things that I would want others to do for my pets. During the school year, I work as a teaching assistant at an elementary school. This means that my summers are very open and free to watch others pets and give them plenty of love and attention. I care for pets in others homes as if they were my own pet, I will make sure to play with them and feed them and get them outside, but also just cuddle them if they like that and give them the space if they also would prefer that.


“Corinne has been a wonderful blessing! Our fur babies are literally an integral part of our family and not being able to take them somewhere is stressful. With Corinne, there is a level of comfort knowing they are being literally loved on and cared for in our absence.”

About: I’m knowledgeable in breed-specific needs and maintain consistency to keep them mentally and physically happy! I have previously taken dog behavior courses and am familiar with dog body language. I have worked with dogs of all sizes and ages! No dog is “too much!” I am comfortable with administering medications and providing grooming for long haired/high maintenance breeds. I have worked with puppies all the way up to senior dogs so I am comfortable handling all ages. I have a full-time job but am more than happy to fit time in to take care of your lovely fur baby. My typical shift is 8:00-4:30pm M-F. I have open availability on weekends to provide housesitting! If you are looking for constant care (pet cannot be left alone for 4 hours or more), I am happy to provide that however, I do charge a constant care rate if during the work week as I will need to take those days off and I will need to recoup lost salary. For constant care pets, I do require at least a month’s notice ahead of time so I can get that time off to accommodate. I will never take a sit if my work schedule cannot accommodate it—your pet’s care and safety is extremely important to me. I will work with you to decide if I am the right fit for your pet’s needs and routine. Nothing is worse than upsetting your pet’s routine and comfortability! I now offer drop-visits as well! This is great for people who might need someone to check in your fur baby a couple times a day but does not need around-the-clock needs. I am happy to drop in before work (8am) and can drop by after work! If you’re someone who works longer shifts, this is perfect for you! I am comfortable crating your pet if requested but they are also more than welcome to share a bed with me if they are used to sleeping with you! If you have an unfenced yard, I will keep them on leash at all times. If you have a fenced yard, I will stay out and monitor them until they are ready to come inside. Doors will be locked at all times whether I am in the home with your pet or if I’m at work. If you have any home-alarm systems, I will use them as well.

About: I have been caring for animals since I was ten years old. Walking, feeding, paying, and bathing dogs of all breeds. You can count on me to make sure your dogs and cats are well taken care of. I am currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to care for your fur family! We will play, get in plenty of walks, and enjoy our time together. I am fully confident in my ability to keep your pets safe, happy, and engaged. I am very respectful of boundaries and will do my absolute best to make sure your pet has a great and comfortable time.

About: I have owned dogs for over ten years and in our home, they are family. Our family and friends have counted on me to pet sit at their home or feed and let their dogs out during the day. I am also available to walking your dog outside when you can’t. I available anytime on the weekends. I am available during the week as well depending your needs, please contact to set a schedule. I will do my best to fit your needs. I am available to pet sit at your home. I’m available for dog walking. I have had two black labs in the past. Currently I am dogless and wanting to help out others to stay busy.

“Hunter was above and beyond great!! Very reliable and communicative. She even helped with our chickens and checked on our barn kitty. Always a good feeling to know your furry family is being well taken care of while you’re away. Thanks Hunter!”



About: Hi my name is Jill, I have over 15 years experience with all types of dogs big and small. I recently lost three of my dogs to old age and am looking into a way to get back to what I love. I have a large fenced in back yard for the pups to explore as well as clean spacious home for them to relax. I love to send updates and pictures throughout the stay so you can see how your loved one is doing. I am available during the stay 24/7 and your pet is usually attended to 24/7 unless discussed. The best peace of mind is knowing your pup is safe and happy while you are gone and I can do that for you! Ask about 20$ off for your first Rover Stay! *note: my calendar may not always be up to date as I also take non- Rover clients, so the sooner you can let me know about dates the better!

About: I’ve owned multiple dogs my whole life, from our current German Shepherd and Siberian Husky to the two pugs we adopted when I was in high school to the lovey dog we found as a kid that we named Scooby-Doo because he looked just like him. I’ve helped care for all of them from walks around the block to feeding time to going outside just for potty and play time. I’ve also helped out a few friends with their dogs since high school while they were away. I’m currently a stay at home mom with a decently open schedule after my kids go to school in the morning and once my husband gets home from work during the week and am available during all hours of the weekend. If you are comfortable with your pets coming to my house I have two very friendly dogs who love play dates if your fur babies play well with others and a big back yard and a fenced in side yard for plenty of running around room or games of fetch. If I’m watching your dog(s) at your home I will follow whatever schedule you have for them on top of making time for play, walks and love so that they don’t feel neglected in any way while you are away. I also am more than comfortable with giving them baths if need be.

About: I have always had a pet growing up and all of my adult life. Currently I have 2 dogs and they are our family. I enjoy the play time the walks and teaching basic skills. I work full time but definitely have early mornings, evenings and weekends available to care for your pet. If your looking for playtime, a walk or just a quick check in, I am available. Both of my dogs are crate trained and love being free in our room at night. I will do whatever you prefer for your pets environment.

“Ellen has taken care of my 3 dogs and cat on several occasions and she’s just AMAZING! My husky, Husky/St.Bernard Mix and Chihuahua just love her energy. There is something about her that animals just love. All of the keys get excited when we go on vacation because they know Ellen is coming for a sleepover 😆 I highly recommend Ellen to anyone who wants someone who will take excellent care of their pets. I will keep using Ellen again and again.”


Christine R.
“Christine is an excellent pet caregiver who is very responsible, dependable, and kind. Our Covid puppies had limited socialization during lockdown and have a lot of anxiety meeting new people even at 4 years old and they warmed up to her quicker than anyone else! Her patient and positive attitude I believe is what helped them feel comfortable with her. Our cat, who also is more selective and people she likes, adores her. I highly recommend Christine as a loving caregiver, especially if you’re looking for someone with a big heart, great communication skills, and hard-working. One of the best people to have ever assisted us with our furbabies. 10/10!”


Lisa R.
“Lisa is the best!! I have a five-year-old Lab. I also have a two-year-old puggle who is full of energy! They both love Lisa and enjoy her visits. I gives me great piece of mind to know that my dogs are cared for while I am stuck at work during the day. Lisa is always professional and on time. If you love your pets, give Lisa a call. Both your pets and you will be glad you did!”

Sara A.
“Sara is always gentle and patient with our poodle who is 7 years and walks gingerly because of hip displaysia. Sara has always baby talked him and taken time to talk with him while looking in his eyes so he knows she is connecting with him. Walter loves Sara!”
