“Craig is great! He stayed in our home with our 13-year old Sophie. She liked him at the meet and greet, and again for the hand off. Craig was communicative throughout the week, sending updates and pictures. It was obvious to us that he understood Sophie's personality and respected her boundaries. We had peace of mind while away, knowing that she was well-cared for. We will definitely be calling on Craig again. Great experience!”


“Sara is absolutely amazing! She treated my babies as if they were her own. They loved her. She played with them and they even slept with her. One of them has a hurt paw and she took extremely good care of her. I wish I could have Sara all the time. She is very reliable. My babies are my world and I don’t like leaving them. It’s hard for me to trust people but I 100% trust Sara. 🐕🐶🥰”


About: I have had dogs of my own since I was a child. I have been involved in fostering for local rescues & shelters for 5 years I have co-ran my own 501c3 rescue for almost 3 years I do work full time, so I am gone Monday- Friday from roughly 7A.M until 6 P.M. (depending on how far you are from my job). I drive Uber on the weekends during the summer months, but those hours are flexible & can vary based on your pet's needs. I have a fenced yard, but I have 3 senior dogs of my own and because of running the rescue, I usually have a foster dog as well so taking a dog into my home would be more challenging, but if I were to drop in or stay at your home, your dog(s) would get all of the one on one attention &time that they require


“David was awesome. My dogs took to him right away, which is not a easy task. David came to our rescue with his last minute availability and put our minds at ease with his outgoing personality. I knew our dogs were in good hands. David went above and beyond with updates/pics of the pups while we were away, he was prompt and dependable. Our home and our pups were well taken care of! We highly recommend David.”


“Alyssa was a wonderful sitter! Total professional with great communication and a sweet, gentle way with our fragile little chihuahua. We felt totally at ease knowing she was in good hands. Would love to have her watch Ginger again.”


“I cannot say enough good things about Tawny! She went above and beyond while caring for my dogs and home. Taking care of multiple large-breed dogs is no small task, but she handled everything with professionalism, patience, and so much love. My dogs were happy, well-cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. Not only did she ensure their routines were followed perfectly—including feeding, exercise, and playtime—but she also took the time to give them the extra attention and affection they need. She kept me updated with messages, pictures, and videos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. On top of caring for my dogs, Tawny also looked after my home as if it were her own. Everything was spotless when I returned, and I could tell she had gone the extra mile to keep things in order. If you’re looking for a responsible, kind, and truly dedicated pet sitter, I wholeheartedly recommend Tawny. She is a gem, and I will absolutely be booking her again in the future!”


“Meli was excellent. Our fur babies were very well taken care of and the house was as we had left it. I was very much at ease knowing she was at the house with the dogs. I will definitely be booking her anytime we need a dog sitter.”


About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart. As a retired mom with decades of caregiving experience, I bring patience, calm energy, and a deep sense of responsibility to every pet I care for. What sets me apart is the time and attention I offer. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch, a stroll around the block, or following a detailed routine, I treat every pet like part of the family. I believe in clear communication, a clean and safe environment, and creating a low-stress experience for both you and your pet. While you’re relaxing at the beach, you can rest easy knowing your pet is in loving, experienced hands. Animals have always been a joyful part of my life, and caring for them fits naturally into my daily routine. Whether it’s morning walks, mealtime, or playtime in the afternoon, I structure my day to ensure pets get plenty of love, attention, and exercise. I’m retired, so I have the flexibility to give your pet the time and care they deserve—without juggling a busy work schedule. Every day includes cuddles, check-ins, and keeping things calm and consistent to help pets feel safe and happy. Safety and trust are my top priorities. In my home, pets are treated like family—with a cozy, clean environment where they have room to relax, play, and feel secure. I make sure all areas are pet-safe and free from hazards, and I follow any routines, dietary needs, or medications just as you would at home. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your space and follow your instructions carefully—from feeding times to walk schedules and any special care your pet needs. I always aim to keep your pet’s routine as normal and comforting as possible, so they feel loved and cared for even while you’re away.

About: Hi, my name is Drew. I have been working with animals for over 18 years now. I started at a veterinary hospital as a veterinary assistant & kennel tech. I transitioned to dog walking and pet sitting shortly after working as a vet assistant and kennel tech. I am able to care for dogs of all sizes. I also love all animals, so if you need someone to care for your dogs, cats, ferrets, snakes, I am here. I will follow your pet instructions exactly as laid out. If your pet has a preferred walking route or specified feeding times, I will adhere to those instructions. It is important to me to ensure that your pet gets the care they need & that their daily routine remains the same. I am patient, organized, communicative, & timely. I am also a cuddler and if your pet is also, I will give them all the cuddles, head scratches & belly rubs that they want! I have experience caring for dogs with anxiety. I do whatever I can to help them feel grounded. If your pet has anxiety, please let me know their triggers so I can make sure those are reduced & anything that calms them. For pet sitting, there is a $15 extra fee per additional pet. On my off days from my full-time job, I am available 5am-6pm, days vary. Otherwise, I am typically available Monday - Sunday for dog walks and pet visits after 1:30pm - 6pm. Visits range from 30 mins to an hour. I ensure to give your pet the best care by getting as much information from my client about their pet's needs to guarantee comfort and consistency.

About: My family and I are Christians. I was making plans to get my son a dog once he started working this summer. His big sister, who is now 20, worked at Ripleys Aquarium before she joined the Airforce a year ago. He wants a job there this summer just so he can learn more about animals. He is a natural around dogs and other animals. He is an honor role student who wants to be a vet one day. While I was out walking in my neighborhood, I ran into a sweet lady who told us about Rover.com. I thought how perfect is that. We get the love and warmth of a dog, and I will be able to teach my beloved son about responsibility and helping others. Your dog will get the love and care that you would expect and will be completely safe with us. The last dog I owned was a Staffordshire Terrier. We loved him. His resting place is in my home Bermuda.

“We were in need of a sitter on short notice and we are so glad to have met Beth Ann thru Rover! While away she sent pics and kept us informed of how he was doing. Just two days before we were to leave, Cruz had injured his paw! We called Beth Ann to let her know what else would be involved with her stay with Cruz. She reassured us she’d be just fine with giving him the meds, the cone he’d have to wear and extra care he may need with this injury! This was so comforting to hear just days before leaving him for the weekend! Beth Ann pulled thru yet again when our flight home was delayed unexpectedly a day! Very happy with Beth Ann’s care for our “Cruzie bear” and we’ll definitely be reaching out to her again!”


About: I have always been a dog person. Growing up, we have always had a dog and now I have a fur baby of my own! I love spending time and playing with all types of dogs. I currently work a part time job, so spending time with your pet will be an ideal way to spend my free time! I love going on walks or just playing with dogs of all kinds. My dog is my entire world, so I understand how important it is to trust someone who takes care of your pet. I am loving and kind and I will treat your animal as my own.

Nicole G.
“Nicole has cared for my dogs and cats many times throughout the years, and I couldn’t ask for a more dependable and compassionate pet sitter. She has always gone above and beyond, even willingly taking on the extra responsibility of helping with a foster dog or cat I had in my home. One of my cats is medically complex and requires daily medications and a strict routine. Nicole was open to learning everything he needed and handled his care flawlessly. She kept him on schedule, administered his meds without issue, and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. She also cleaned up after them in the yard, and my home was kept immaculate. Both me and my pets highly recommend her to anyone in need of a trustworthy, capable, and caring pet sitter.”
