“First time using Rover, and I couldn’t be happier! Kylee took care of ny cat and dog while I was away on vacation with 2 drop-in visits per day. I only booked a couple of weeks in advance, and she came just a few days after I sent the request for a meet and greet. Communication was great, she was very loving with my animals, and I would highly recommend her to anyone! Thank you, Kylee, for a great first experience with Rover.”

She cleaned up the pee on the floor, let out my two older dogs and stayed over a half an hour to get my stubborn 8 months old puppy back in her kennel. I will definitely be booking again, if she is still willing to accept us after today’s events.”

About: I have always grown up having dogs and love to be around them! I have experience in dog walking and daily pet care such as feeding, cleaning up messes and taking it outside to the bathroom. I am excited to meet your pup! I am a teacher who will be working short hours over the summer. I am available for weekday walks and weekday check ins for your dog. I plan to make sure that I clean any messes that the dog makes within the clients home and that I leave their house the same if not cleaner then how I found it.
“Onyx is amazing with our boys, and does a fantastic job handling all the meds for my senior cat. They love her too, and I never need to worry about leaving them with her while I'm out of town!”
About: Hi! I'm a dog-loving teacher who has rescued and adopted many dogs in my lifetime. I have 3 dogs at home: Gracie Lou, a 6 year-old pit-mix; Howie, my 14 year-old pug-chi mix, and Leroy, my grumpy 12 year-old cocker mix. I would love to be able to lend a hand to anyone else who knows the trouble of finding someone to watch the fur-kids when they travel.

“Had to take a quick trip out of town and Dionna took great care of my pup Rooney. Sent multiple pictures and gave me many updates on how he was doing! Will absolutely book again.”
About: I’ve had no less than two dogs around the house from childhood, and have experience with dogs of all sizes- jack russell to english mastiff! Growing up, we fostered dogs often, volunteering with Operation Delta Dog to aid service dog training for veterans. It’s always great to meet a new friend! As a part time worker with flexible hours, I have plenty of free time for walks and check-ins whenever necessary for you and your pup! I find that each dog and each owner is unique! I think it is important to respect the wishes of each owner- after all, you know your dog best!
About: What does one to one pet care mean? It means that I provide individualized care for your dog, and that I will only care for one dog at a time in my home. Whether in my home or your home, your fur babies will be my number one priority. Dogs have been part of my family for most of the past 25+ years. I’ve also taken care of pets for neighbors and friends. My experience includes care for senior dogs and dogs with special needs. I am comfortable caring for reactive dogs, and have cared for dogs who are reactive around people and other dogs. I believe that all dogs are special and there is a special place in my heart for all furry friends. I work remotely, and am available to take care of your dog in my home or yours. I have a lot of flexibility regarding my schedule, and so it will be very easy for me to care for your pet while you are away. Dogs who I care for in my home are part of my family. I treat each dog as an individual and will accommodate their special personalities and needs. I only take care of one dog at a time in my home, where there is a quiet home environment, with no children or other pets. Whether in my home, or yours, your dog will be my number one concern!
About: I spent all of my college years house and barn sitting. Chickens, cows, goats, dogs, cats, pigs, you name it, I’ve watched it! I’m familiar with medications and special/senior needs as well. I love all animals and treat them as if they are my own Currently working 5am to 2pm Mondays through Saturdays. Sunday afternoon 10:30am is generally open. However my work schedule is very flexible so i can be pretty accommodating Since i do not have a yard, I wake up early with plenty of time to take my dogs for a solid 20 minute walk before work. Then multiple short walks throughout the day or a trip to the dog park, finished with another 20-25 minute walk at night before be

Lauren H.
“It’s not easy to put your pets life in the hands of someone you don’t know. My wife and I adopted our cocker spaniel, Anikan, at the beginning of this year. At the time, my wife was working remotely and had the flexibility to take Anikan out for walks throughout the day. To our fortune, my wife was promoted; but with that promotion came an in-person work responsibility. With me already working in-person 5 days a week, the problem arose of who will take care of our Anikan while we are at work. A family friend of ours introduced us to Lauren. We were very nervous at first leaving Anikan with someone we hardly knew. However, Lauren made us feel comfortable and assured us that there was nothing to worry about. She showed her experience with pets and the responsibility it takes to take care of someone else’s loved one. Lauren has been walking Anikan for the last 2 months and has become another part of the family to us. She is loving, caring, and has the positive mindset to always do what’s right. I trust that Lauren will make anyone else feel safe to trust her with your loved ones as she has done for us.”

Addy L.Star Sitter
“I have known Adrienne for over 10 years. During that time she adopted 2 elderly hard-to-place dogs who had special needs. She provided them with a loving home where they lived out their final years in a safe, caring environment, enjoying treats, cuddles, and walks in quiet areas where they felt as safe and comfortable as they they could. Adrienne seems to have an intuitive understanding of what dogs need to feel safe, and compassionately meets those needs. I am more of a cat person but if I had a dog I would not hesitate to leave it in Adrienne’s care.”
