“Tiffany and her family took such wonderful care of Benny while we were on vacation! It was clear that he received plenty of attention, affection, and love during his stay. Knowing he was safe, happy, and being treated like part of the family allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our trip without worrying. We would absolutely trust Tiffany with Benny again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and caring pet sitter!”

“Jeanne was friendly, and accommodating toward our dogs needs. She has a nice fenced in, enclosed area, on the farm for the dogs, which I liked. Thanks Jeanne!”

“Katie was great with drop off and pickup. She administered Clover’s meds and was quick to get back to me when I communicated with her. She was also very flexible with my late pickup when plans changed, and I really appreciate that.”

Aimee L.

“Katie was fantastic! Super helpful and communicative setting everything up for our first time with her. Kept the dogs loved and entertained (including a pool party!) while we were vacationing. And they came home looking better than when we left. Will definitely want to have them spend time with Katie again in the future.”

“We could not ask for a better dog sitter for our good boy! Elisabeth is truly a little dog whisperer—so caring, patient, and incredibly attentive to every detail. From the moment I met her, it was clear how much she genuinely loves dogs and understands their individual personalities and needs. She keeps us updated with lots of adorable photos and makes sure our dog felt completely at home, relaxed, and loved. The fun adventures she took them on made it feel like a real doggy vacation, not just a stay. Our dog comes home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. It gives us total peace of mind to know our pup is in such loving and capable hands. We will 100% continue to book with Elisabeth again and recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional sitter! 🐾💛”

About: New to Rover but not new to caring for animals! I grew up on a farm with lots of animals - dogs, cats, goats, horses, rabbits, chickens, pigs... I've also informally pet sat for friends and neighbors with dogs and/or cats in the past. I've been a cat mom in the past, but I don't have a pet of my own right now. For dog walking, my work from home job allows me some flexibility to stop by and take your pup for a stroll! I can do earlier mornings, a lunch time walk on some days, and evening walks after 5pm. For doggy daycare, I work from home full time at a desk job - if my day is "busy" it just means I had a few more zoom calls than usual. I would absolutely be able to take time to provide potty breaks and maybe a walk around the neighborhood when the weather is good. I live on a main street in town, but there's also a nice quiet neighborhood right behind me with minimal traffic, perfect for a quick walk. I do travel three or four times a year for my job, generally for 3-5 days each time, but I'd be able to give you at least a couple of months advanced notice for those trips - they are never last minute! For doggy daycare, I don't smoke and I have plenty of space for your pup to hang out during the day so they don't feel cooped up - including a wrap around enclosed porch that I can keep secure, and a tall privacy-fenced back yard/garden area. While the yard is fenced, I do get birds and other critters roaming through, and I have a flower garden that could have some toxic plants for over-curious dogs. Because of that, I would not to leave them alone outside, but take those breaks with them. My house does have a fairly steep flight of stairs, so a dog without joint pain or struggles going up and down multiple times a day would be most comfortable. I do have lots of houseplants and some could be toxic - so again, if your dog tends to be curious and take a bite out of plants, I may not be the best fit for you.

“Nicolette was amazing. My dog was always out getting exercise and on fun adventures she was communicative and I got some great pics. Highly recommend.”

“I’m so happy we found Sergey at the last minute. My two dogs stayed with Sergey’s for six nights. They came home tired, happy, and clean. Sergey was extremely flexible with our timing when our travel was delayed. I would not hesitate to recommend Sergey as a pet sitter.”

“Janice was a very good communicator and provided me with many updates - including pictures - as she watched my pup. I was very comfortable with her caring for my pup. I would employ her again for sure!”

“Christina was simply amazing! I needed boarding on an emergency basis and she was able to fit me into her schedule with prompt and thorough communication. My dog Lupo usually takes a bit to warm up to strangers and can be reactive when afraid; someone who is overly gushy and touchy-feely immediately upon meeting would be Lupo's idea of a nightmare. Christina listened to my suggestions and respected Lupo's space as I let her out of the car. But Lupo decided immediately that Christina was not just a friend, but a BEST friend. Lupo literally ran up and hugged Christina within minutes of meeting her. This is not typical Lupo behavior so I knew Lupo was in good hands. Christina kept me posted with pictures and updates, and I could tell Lupo was comfortable and relaxed and most importantly HAPPY. I would not hesitate to book again with Christina. She is a gem!”

About: My parents have 2 Australian Blue Heelers who are 8 and 9 months old, and I’ve dog sat for friends and family for over 10 years. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages, including ones with health conditions. I’m currently working a hybrid schedule, so i work from home Mondays and some Fridays. During the week I can happily come during my lunch break to walk/drop in on your pups! I have flexibility in when I take it, but do have to limit the walks/drop ins to 30 mins so I can get back in time. Depending on when you’re looking for walks/boarding, I’m almost always available! There currently aren’t other dogs at my house, so my attention is completely on your pets! We live in a friendly neighborhood for walks, which is perfect for my outdoorsy self and your pups.

“Emily, Kieran, and their lovely dog Leon are absolutely amazing. They took fantastic care of my pup Sally and made her feel like she was part of the family. They’re communicative, thoughtful, and absolutely rockstar sitters. Thank you!”

Jesse H.

“Laney was very accommodating of my two Huskies. I've been looking a long time to find not only a sitter, but one that would take good care of my pups and not be worried about their behavior. Although my boys are somewhat trained and are good with other dogs and kids, not everyone is willing to watch two Huskies! She also showed good care and is knowledgeable of training. I will definitely coming back!”

Christopher A.

“Anne was wonderful! I felt so comfortable and at ease leaving my dog, Maya, with her. Anne provided Maya with the best care in a happy, loving environment, and I’m very grateful.”

“Kimberly was absolutely fantastic!! She sent lots of pictures and had great communication. I could tell she took excellent care of my doggo and he was so happy at pick up. He has his quirks, but she clearly knew how to handle them and was completely unbothered by them. Will definitely be using her again when back in the area!”

“My dog stayed overnight with Chelsea while I was out of town and we had the best experience with her. She was incredibly attentive and I felt good knowing she was in safe hands. I would highly recommend Chelsea and will be using her again! ❤️”

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. I grew up with a cat who was much more than a pet—because I didn’t have any brothers or sisters, she was my best friend and constant companion. Later, after meeting my husband, who had a dog, I discovered how much joy dogs bring and how different, fun, and rewarding it is to spend time with them. Now that my own children are older and more independent, I finally have some time to do something I’ve wanted for a while: care for other people’s dogs. Spending time with animals truly makes me happy, and I would love to give your dog the same love, attention, and care that I would give my own. I’ve looked after dogs in my home and understand that every pet is unique. Some dogs love long walks and playtime, while others just want a quiet companion nearby. I’ll happily follow your dog’s routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. What really sets me apart is how much I genuinely care. I pay close attention to the little details, carefully follow your instructions, and treat every pet like family. I’ll also send regular photos and updates, so you’ll always know your furry friend is happy and well cared for. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pet. I’m available for afternoon walks during the week, as well as boarding. Your dog will have regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. I always do my best to follow your pet’s usual schedule, so they feel comfortable and at home while you’re away. My home is a safe, pet-friendly environment where dogs are treated like part of the family. They will have plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and a cozy place to rest. . My children are older. They’re gentle and respectful, and they’ll happily play with your dog if that’s something your dog enjoys. I’ll also send regular photo updates, so you’ll always know your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I’m mainly experienced in caring for cats and dogs, but also farm animals and smaller pets like gerbils. I’m hoping to make this a full time job as I love being with animals. My schedule is wide open to meet all your pets needs. My spacious home is in a quiet suburban neighborhood with an open field just down the road. I have 2 friendly cats, however visiting pets could be separated as needed.

“Karen is such an amazing sitter! She was willing to work with us during our hectic schedule and was incredibly easy and quick with communication. When we weren't able to get back to pick up our pup because our flight got delayed, she was incredibly flexible and was the one to reach out to us to let us know not to worry. I highly recommend her!”

“We can't say enough good things about our experience. Emma was a delight. She made Tuckie a part of their family. This was our first experience with leaving Tuckie and Emma put us right at ease along witb tuckie who went with her withkut issues. She was extremely accommodating and professional. Tuckie looks forward to his next adventure. We would definitely recommend Emma's services.”
