“5 Stars – Wonderful Experience with Amanda! I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Amanda and her family for doggy daycare. From the start, she was warm, welcoming, and incredibly accommodating—even when my schedule shifted slightly. Her flexibility made everything so much easier. Amanda lives in a very safe, quiet neighborhood, which gave me peace of mind every day I dropped Rolo off. Speaking of Rolo—he loved going to her house! He happily ran to her each morning, tail wagging and full of excitement, which speaks volumes about the care and love he received. It’s clear Amanda treats every dog like part of her family. I’m so grateful to have found her, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, loving care for their pup!”



“I had a wonderful experience with Karen. She watched my 9 week old puppy and provided me with updates. Karen was also flexible. I had to change my drop-off and pick-up time during one of the days that she watched my puppy; and Karen made it work for me. I's super thankful.”


“Jessica went above and beyond to make sure my dog was comfortable, happy, and well cared for while I was away. She provided updates, including photos, which gave me peace of mind, and I loved seeing how quickly my pets warmed up to her and her dogs. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive pet sitter.”


“Angie has been so accommodating for my puppy, Liv. When my typical sitter cancelled, I was able to drop the dog off within 30-minutes of me initially reaching out. This happened twice and I was so grateful for her promptness and flexibility. She sends lots of pictures of my puppy and he has a wonderful time playing outside. Angie is one of the best providers I have met on Rover!”


“Ok, this may be a repeat since my original review for Taylor has disappeared. Bottomline, Taylor’s care of Barkley was awesome! Taylor sent pictures of Barkley playing with his 2 dogs. We also know that Barkley was well cared for and enjoyed his stay with Taylor and his pack because Barkley readily and excitedly went with Taylor with wagging tail without looking back at us when we dropped him off for day 2…no hesitation or separation anxiety at all!!! We definitely recommend Taylor and would connect with him again.”


“This was my first time booking with Vassu. Vassu was wonderful with my dog, Maddie. Maddie enjoyed her large fenced in yard, including discovering her dog door. Maddie was also spoiled with walks, dog toys, and the company of Vassu's dog Ninja. Vassu shared pictures with me through out Maddie's stay. Vassu was professional and made my first time experience with the Rover App a comfortable and enjoyable experience. I will definitely use Vassu in the future. Maddie and I thank Vassu, Ninja, and her family for all the love you gave her while she stayed.”

About: I love all dogs and have a special spot in my heart for puppies. I can do some training for you while they are in my care. I am currently retired so I am very flexible. I have a 30 lb, 3-1/2 year old shepard mix that is very well behaved and loves to play with other dogs. I will treat your pet as if they were my own. We have over 30 acres surrounding our house with many walking trails. I love to walk!

“We appreciated Megan's care for Jack, our vibrant, deaf 14 year old shih tzu, especially as I made last minute arrangements after traveling for a family funeral service and burial. She was helpful, reassuring and accommodating with all that Jack needed. We're grateful and recommend asking her to dog-sit.”


“Thank you Forough and Amir! We were nervous at first how Russell would do and how he would get along with other dogs, so we were so relieved to hear that he fit right in! We would definitely feel comfortable leaving him with Forough and Amir again and look forward to scheduling another visit!”


About: We currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats. I've worked at the westfield animal shelter and have helped with new puppy feedings. I have had dogs most of my life and would love to watch yours. Me and my girlfriend work opposite days so someone is usually home. We work early in the day so most of the time the dogs are just sleeping. We have an extra crate if needed. We have a fenced in yard with 3 dogs of our own. There is a bathroom part of the yard that's fenced in and an area for play.

“Hannah was great, she kept me updated and sent me photos/ videos to show me how much fun my puppy had. It was nice to see Reese with his new dog friends Wolf and Connie 😊 She has a very large backyard with so much room to run and play. I will definitely be bringing Reese back again.”


About: Hello! My name is Kimberly, you can call me Kim. I started this journey of watching owners furry/non-furry babies when I was 12 years old, making flyers for my neighbors to watch their dogs/cats/reptiles. That developed into me fostering dogs/cats for a couple different rescues. One of the adopters needed a pet sitter and trusted me as the foster mom, I accepted. Since then I have learned and grown so much. Along with pet sitting, I have worked at a zoo, kennels, horse barns, shelters, a cat rescue, and a grooming salon. I’ve got a bit of knowledge for many species of animals, ages, breeds, sizes. I won’t say I’ve seen it all but I have seen a lot! My whole life has been animals, you can ask anyone who’s met me, I am the go to family member, friend for watching pets! Now 16 years later I am still at it and love it more than anything! Learning new things everyday. As mentioned above, I take care of all types of animals: dogs, cats, lizards, snakes, small animals, fish, livestock, you name it! I can guarantee I have experience with whatever pet you need help with. If it’s a rare pet I don’t happen to know; I am a fast learner, committed and up to the task! While the safety and well being of your pets is my main concern. I like to pride myself in keeping the house clean, or cleaner than you left it. I keep to myself and my animals(yes I will consider your babies like my own). Making sure the animals are happy and cared for is my main priority. A typical day for me is getting up letting out the dogs, feeding everybody, clean what needs cleaning, then get myself ready. There is always a midday potty break/playtime. Late afternoon/evening time another potty break, dinner and lastly one more potty break before bedtime! My goal is to keep your pets schedule as close to what you do for them. So please don’t hesitate to give me as many details as you want!! Updates/pictures daily, also as requested. Can send videos as well. I try my best to accommodate to you and your pets needs! You shouldn’t have to worry about your family at home while you are away! Let me introduce you to my little zoo! I have two dogs Spencer and Ivy. Both spayed females. Spencer is a 13 year old shepherd mix. Ivy is an 8 year old border collie/aussie mix. One cat named Jazmyn, she’s a 14 year old calico. Two ferrets named Timon and Pumbaa! Both males and about a year old. If you know anything about ferrets one is a sable, the other is a chocolate mitt. Last but certainly not least! MoMo is my Red-Tailed Boa Constrictor, about 4 1/2ft long and he’s around 3 years old. Ferrets and snake are both confined to their areas with no chance of escaping. My experience includes the following: administering medications, senior pets, special needs pets, reactive animals, exotics Pet sitting is my full time job! I have care for my animals while I am away taking care of your pets. For overnights which is my main gig; sleeping overnight so your animals aren’t alone. Doing the morning routine, nightly routine and in between daytime care. It is not a 24/7 care service but I do spend the majority of my time with your animals. Only leaving for other clients animals/errands 1-6 hrs max., in a day. Of course this can change depending on your pets level of needs! For house sitting in your home I like to keep your pets routine as close to normal as possible. Meaning feeding schedules, special treats, walks, backyard playtime, medications, etc.

About: I’ve had animals (cats and dogs) for as far back as I can remember. I currently have an Shorkie who is elderly (14 yrs old) and a young Aussiedoodle (3 years old). I’ve dealt with extreme health issues, administrating medications, active dogs etc. I love all dogs as if my own and would love to ensure you feel safe leaving your baby with me while away! I was recently laid off from my corporate position and am now home throughout the day with my new-ish born and a toddler who will be starting preschool this fall. We have two dogs in our home currently, and just like children, after you add a second one you can tackle it all. So the more the merrier! I have a large fenced in yard and two dogs that can keep your dog occupied. I can also work with you on safety measures you need me to take to ensure you and your dog feel safe!

About: Pet sitting has always been super rewarding for me, i grew up on a farm so it is in my nature to connect with them:) I am currently on summer break so my schedule is pretty flexible! just shoot me a message and we can figure out which dates work:) When i am pet-sitting i prefer to be provided with a list of your animals routine, what time do they go out? feeding times? their favorite toys and places to walk etc! I am a student so my preference is sitting at the clients homes, or sitting them at my home. i love thorough communication with my clients and prefer to know what i am welcome to in the home, where to go etc. (I will always respect client boundaries!)

“Erin is great. I have used her in the past and she keeps me updated on Redd with pics and texts. This time she was able to help me out on short notice. Definitely recommend her and will continue to use you to watch Redd”

Jeanne B.
“I have known Jeanne for about 40 years. In all that time I have always found her to be a wonderful compassionate person, with tons of patience and kindness in all things whether it be dealing with humans or animals. I once watched her pet while she was on vacation for a week and Micah was great I wished I could keep her. She is a wonderful dog mom. I have been to the dog park with her on numerous occasions and her dog is always well behaved and great with the other dogs. I also know that she went to dog training with her newest dog and has had her kenneled with the owner when she could not be with her herself. I would definitely entrust her with my dog as I know that she would treat it kindly like one of her family.”

Abigail C.
“Abigail is a very kind and conscientious person. She loves animals, and would take great care of them. Her own dog went thru a long health issue in which she took a lot of time and money to bring her dog back to health even when the veterinarian was not sure he would live. She has watched my dogs and I knew they were in good hands. I knew that I would come home and find everything fine.”
