He took great care of our dogs, and was very good about sending pictures and updates during his stay. We will definitely plan to book him again in the future!!!

Deborah was responsive and communicative. My two dogs embraced her from the initial meet and greet. One of my dogs is a rambunctious 18 month old and Deborah was very calm and patient with him. She sent me daily photos and updates which I appreciated. I will definitely hire Deborah's services again in the future and recommend her.

About: With 20 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, I bring a calm, confident, and loving presence to every pup I meet. I’ve fostered dogs for over two decades—helping dozens of dogs transition into happy homes—and have also managed a busy doggy daycare, where I oversaw playgroups, feeding schedules, behavior assessments, and lots of tail wags! As a proud dog mom of two fur babies myself, I treat every dog in my care like family. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, snuggles while you’re away, or a safe space to stay, you can count on me to provide reliable, professional, and loving care—with plenty of updates and adorable pics along the way! 🐕💕 Hi, I’m Ashley! I’ve been caring for dogs for 20+ years through fostering, doggy daycare management, and raising my own pups. As a realtor, I work from home often, so your pet will have plenty of attention, snuggles, and supervision throughout the day! I treat every pet like family and always follow the owner’s instructions closely. I maintain a calm, secure environment and never leave pets unsupervised during visits or boarding. Clean, safe, and stress-free is my goal!

About: Growing up I always had animals around me. My childhood dog, Twinkie was a cute little yappy Pomeranian. She was a picky eater, but would always save a treat in her bowl and only ate it with me after I came home from school. In high school I volunteered at the local Wildlife Rescue where I cared for various small injured animals. I was responsible for feeding and weighing them, cleaning their cages, raising meal worms, and even got to observe surgeries. After college I lived a veterinarian so I am used to caring for random foster animals without notice. I work from home with a flexible schedule to care for animals. I can type on my computer in the same room your pet naps. I can take your pet on walks at any time needed, though I recommend mornings and evenings due to the current heat outside. I cook and clean for all of my own meals and can do the same for your pet. I can schedule cuddles or play time as needed throughout the day as well. :) I have a downstairs lounge, an upstairs living room, and a few bonus rooms in which your pet can relax. There are no other animals or plants in these areas. Crating is fine, but I prefer animals to have more space and freedom to move about. If I am coming to your home I am happy to follow any rules or special instructions you may have. During down times I will be using my laptop quietly in the same room as your pet.

About: I am a lifelong pet owner and animal enthusiast, and I am experienced in caring for pets with a variety of temperaments and specific needs. I have a cat and a Bernedoodle of my own, and I've been pet-sitting for friends for 5+ years. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I'm an early riser or night owl as needed, and I can adjust my schedule to the needs of your animals. I can care for cats and dogs in the clients' homes. I can provide drop-in visits, overnight stays, and daytime pet-sitting. I'm happy to feed and water, play, brush, administer medicines, and clean up litter boxes/messes.

About: I have had my dog Hagen since I was 10 years old. I trained him by myself from pott trainings to crate training and even simple trick. He is very gentle and wonderful with kids and I’m so glad i’ve gotten to grow up with him. I am currently interning part time before I go to college so that leaves plenty of time to play with pups of all ages. I love getting my daily fix with dogs and can’t imagine life without them. In my clients home I will be respectful of their property and make sure I don’t let their dog out of my sight even if their yard is fenced in. Also, on walks I will keep them away from other dogs because I am unsure how they will react unless the owner has specified otherwise that they are friendly with other dogs and I feel safe doing so.

About: I'm new to Rover but a veteran at caring for pets and homes! As a retired civilian police support staffer, you can't have a safer, more trustworthy person in your home. Not only do you get a huge pet lover taking care of your babies, you also have the luxury of a trained veteran looking after your house and valuables, at no extra cost! I've been fingerprinted, polygraphed, background checked, and fully vetted for more than 22 years. You'll receive detailed daily updates - with photos - by text or email, and your babies will receive all the pets, scritches, love, walks and play time they want! I've had cats since I was 10, and most have been special needs in one way or another. One needed four pills daily in different combinations (half pill, whole pill, 1x, 2x, etc.). Another was diabetic and needed insulin shots twice a day. Currently, I live with Ellie, a rescue cat who is 18 and needs a liquid steroid nightly and regular B12 injections, and Gracie, a rescue cat who is 15 and has no needs other than a lap to sit in and hands to pet her. My spouse has a deaf dog, Helen, who loooves me, and the feeling is mutual! She doesn't get along well with most other dogs, and my cats don't appreciate visitors, so I can't board or otherwise watch pets in my own home, but I'm always available to visit your home! I am currently semi-retired and working for myself from home now. I want to enjoy being my own boss and keep my days and most evenings open for any opportunity that arises. As as 22+ year civilian police support staffer, you can rest assured that your pet AND your home are safe with me. I will treat both with the utmost care and respect and take time for an in-depth discussion to learn your needs and wishes beforehand. Not only is your pet in safe, capable hands, you get the added value of experienced eyes keeping watch over your home and valuables!

As a veterinarian, I’ve met countless pet lovers and caregivers—but few have the natural connection with animals that Jason does. He’s not just reliable; he genuinely enjoys being around the pets he cares for, and they clearly feel the same way. Whenever he pet-sits for me, I can see on our home cameras that the moment he walks in, he’ll flop onto the couch—and within seconds, both my dog and cat are curled up in his lap. It’s their favorite cuddle spot, and it’s become part of their routine when he’s around. That kind of comfort and trust from animals speaks volumes. I always know my pets are in loving, capable hands when I’m away. He’s attentive, gentle, and calm under pressure—whether he’s giving meds, managing quirks in behavior, or just making sure everyone feels safe and settled. I truly wish he hadn’t relocated to Texas, because finding someone with that kind of intuitive, compassionate care isn’t easy. If you're looking for someone who treats your pets like family—and who your pets will instinctively trust—he's your person.

Maddie is a great dog watcher, and there’s no one I trust more with my dog. Every time i’ve left my dog in her care, i’ve came back to a happy, well-cared for pet. Maddie really pays attention to detail, making sure my dog gets the right amount of exercise, follows their feeding schedule, and even sends me updates and cute pics while i’m away.
