“Jennifer is amazing!! It’s my first time using Rover for my puppy and she put all my nerves at ease. She sent daily pictures and updates which I really appreciated. Noodle can’t wait to go back! Thank you again Jennifer!”
“Donna was great with our boy. She was so accommodating to him even though he was a little nervous in a new place. Donna responded immediately to any of my messages and took great care of our puppy. Thank you again Donna!”
“Luna has mild separating anxiety, so it took her a few days to get used to spending time with her new friends. Now she can't contain her excitement every time we pull up to Matt's house! Matt always kept us updated with pictures throughout her stay and gave us feedback on how she did. I highly recommend him as your next dog sitter!”

“I found out the day before that I needed a sitter for my 8 month old, yet to be neutered, tank of a puppy, Apollo. Having previously left him with only family members, and only a handful of times, we were a little nervous. When we first got there, Apollo immediately seemed to feel comfortable, not even looking back at me. I received photos a few hours in, and when it was time to pick him up, Apollo was trying to climb into a lap (he’s 75 lbs), and was being praised as a love, cuddle bug! Overall positive, seamless experience and I would book again.”
“Kerri was so sweet and accommodating. My pup Nola had a great time, she was exhausted from all the fun she had with Kerri’s dogs (who were also really friendly!) will definitely use Kerri’s services again in the future.”
“Simply amazing!!! Kimberline was flexible with times, and shows how much she cares by asking questions during the day. It’s hard to leave your fur baby with someone else, but it’s such a great feeling when you find someone you know cares! Will never use anyone else! Thank you Kimberline!!!”
“We first met Alyssa during a meet and greet with our dog, Molly. Coming from a rescue center with a difficult past, Molly can be a bit challenging. We’ve been showering her with love, and Alyssa immediately connected with her energy. Throughout the day, she kept us updated with messages and photos, which we truly appreciated. Alyssa, thank you! We’re looking forward to Molly staying with you next weekend.”

About: New to Rover but not new to pet-sitting. I have had pets or been around animals my entire life (including puppies, dogs, kittens, cats, fish, rabbits, and birds) and they have always been considered a part of the family. I love every pet as if they’re my own- prepare for the custody battle 😅. lol jk. In all seriousness, your pets comfort is important to me and I am confident they will feel right at home. I have experience with puppies and all the beautiful challenges that come with that stage, as well as senior care. I have also had experience with adopting my own dog with reactive tendencies which has made me hyper aware of the importance of dogs social cues both with animals and people, and reading their body language/boundaries. Safety for all parties involved is always my top priority. I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. Walks availability: Anytime Sun-Tues, (Wed-Sat hours fluctuate, will need to discuss exact needs.) Doggy daycare availability: Anytime Sun-Sat (if pick-up/drop-off needed will need to discuss availability in more depth.) Boarding availability: Anytime Sun-Sat (if pick-up/drop-off needed will need to discuss availability in more depth.) I currently have boarding slots set up to 4 at a time but feel free to contact me regarding specific availability needs. For example, does your pet require an environment without other animals? Do you have 2 dogs but 3 cats? Based on your pets specific needs, we can discuss alternate solutions. I do require meet & greets for any new clients to ensure it’s a good fit and safety requirements are met for all. We can discuss what works best for your pet. As long as animal is house broken and properly trained, I am flexible with crate/uncrated visits/boarding. My apartment complex is dog friendly but unfenced so would require on leash walks. Property also includes fenced in dog area, or I am open to dog park runs if that is your preference. If scheduling crated boarding, will need to provide own crate.
About: Recently retired and looking to keep busy! I have taken care of animals most of my life. I raised kids & we always had pets. I enjoy most spending my time outside and would love to enjoy it with a pup! I am recently retired and have lots of free time to spend with and caring for your pets! I am available week days and weekends flexibly. I will treat your pets as my own while they are in my care. I’m also happy to assist with house watching responsibilities taking in mail and watering plants.
“Buddy was happy and comfortable while staying with Harley. I did not receive any pictures and I only got an update when I reached out and asked about him. Also, he was there for 8.5 hours and must not have been taking out for a potty break because the second we hit the grass Buddy peed for a full minute straight and then immediately went #2. Just a heads up for those who expect pictures/updates and want their dogs to be outside at some point during an 8 hour+ daycare visit. It was an overall positive experience but I am used to sitters who are more actively engaged with my dog as well as me.”
“My Ginger enjoyed her doggie day care with Sarah! Sarah kept me updated throughout the day with photos and videos of Ginger and her new friends. She was a sleepy girl when she got home too! Sarah was caring for Gingers timidness on a walk too. Highly recommend and will use Sarah as a dog sitter in the future!”
“Pam and her family shower my dogs with care and love.Pam communicates well, sends regular updates with photos, and is always reliable. I am always so grateful for their help!”
About: I have nurtured, trained and rehabbed cats, dogs and farm animals for decades and find it incredibly rewarding. I provide a safe and loving environment. I am available for daycare or boarding 24/7, 365 days a year. My services are available year-round and my rates do not increase seasonally or for holidays. I have a 3/4 acre fully fenced yard with secured gates for our 2 dogs. My cats live in the 3 room 'kitty condo' indoors.
“Finding Cheri has been a Godsend. This is the first time we've ever needed daycare and we were hesitant to leave Otto with anyone. On top of that we had a few other experiences with people who were unreliable. Cheri, above all else, is a dog lover in every sense of the word. I see it from the way she greets Otto in the morning, to the way that she texts me during the day to tell me whats he's doing or asking if he can do certain things, to seeing how tired he is at the end of the day from a day of full activity. Cheri walks him, takes him on runs and she and her boys play with him in the backyard all day long. I couldn't be happier with everything she does and recommend her highly to anyone looking to find a safe and healthy place to leave their dog with complete peace of mind.”

Holly V.
“Holly is one of the most genuine, loving, kind people I have ever met. She has dog sat for my Pomeranian many times when we went away and to be honest, she’s one of the only people outside of family I would trust with my 3 children as well. She is patient and truly the best possible person one could trust to watch their fur baby and their home. I cannot recommend her enough. I promise, she is one of a kind!!”
