“Julie was awesome again. Finn had a great time. She always provides lots of pictures and was able to help my puppy through a bought of diarrhea while I was out of town. When I went to open the car door to load Finn up and go home after his stay, he ran back to their front door, sat down, and looked at me wanting to get back to his friends :). I will definitely reserve time with them again when I need it.”
“Lisa and Jay took awesome care of my girl. Looks like the first day or two was a bit rough, but she quickly realized life was continuing as it always had. I really appreciated all the fun pictures during my travels and I was so relieved not having to worry about her. I’m sorry orca ate all of Lily’s food, she may have gained a pound or two as you said?😉 thank you again for taking such amazing care of my little Sheba.”
“Jessica sent pictures of maple often and told me he was doing just fine over there. Was flexible with picking up time changed and plan on using her again for next time.”
“Sarah took very good care of our elder dog, Curly. She communicated well and sent pictures. Curly looked very comfortable and relaxed in her care. Thank you Sarah for all you did for Curly!”
“This was the first time we had used rover so didn’t really know what to expect but Kaitlin and John were great from the start. We arranged a meet and greet and we could see our dog Frank was happy as soon as he got there so we booked once we got home. They were very accommodating when we asked to move the drop off time due to flight change, and provided pictures and updates each day. Frank enjoyed his time with their family and we would highly recommend.”
“Our dog seemed to enjoy her stay. Great yard for play, and neighborhood for walks. Kaitlin gave great updates during the stay and was flexible with us for drop off and pick up.”
“Jadae was absolutely amazing with my baby Dozr! She watched him for a day and a half and treated him like part of her family. Her two little girls were so sweet with him, and it was clear he felt comfortable, loved, and well cared for the entire time. Jadae kept me updated, made sure all of his needs were met, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I could tell Dozr was happy, safe, and getting plenty of attention and affection. I highly recommend Jadae to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and loving dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Huw& Jolynne are world class. My little pomperanian Suki LOVES them. They take great care and she comes back healthy, happy, and well cared for. When I do repeat stays, my little girl runs to them. I'm really pleased and highly satisfied with Huw & Jolynnes care!!!! Recommend them wholeheartedly.”
“Lindsey took excellent care of Nellie. Our pup is an only child but got along with the two resident dogs and Lindsey was extra thoughtful of her comfort and gave lots of treats as needed. Lots of photos and great communication. Highly recommend!”
“Prospect was in great company and thoroughly enjoyed his time with Aiko and her family :) Great communicators, flexible with my changing pickup & dropoff times, and my boy was returned to me safe & happy. Would recommend to anyone!”
“Amanda took amazing care of my senior dog with high anxiety! She was so experienced and patient, and loving with him. He ate better for her than he does for me! I’m so glad to have found the perfect sitter for my special needs boy!”
“This was my first experience using Rover and someone besides family to watch our German shepherd. I was worried about him getting along in a new place. Turned out, he had a great time. I was sent pictures of him playing. Now that he is home, he looks a little bored! Thank you to Sharon and Michael. I am planning on using your services again.”
“Nev had great communication and took great care of our sweet Willow! She was very flexible with our delayed flights & always reached out if she had any questions. We really appreciated her! :)”
About: Hi! I’m Susie. I’ve always been an animal lover and know how much our pets mean to us. For years I’ve cared for my friends’ dogs whenever they traveled, and after realizing how much I enjoy it, I decided to join Rover. At home, I have a dachshund named Nugget and a cat named Cosmo, so caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday life. I live in a single-family home with my son, and we have a fully fenced backyard with a medium-sized doggy door, giving dogs plenty of room to safely play and explore. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, relaxed, and at home while they’re with us. I’ll follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible and send regular photo updates so you can see how they’re doing while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I work from home 4 days a week so I am available often. Thursday I go into the office 9-5, so animal would need to handle some alone time (crated/house trained) I follow instructions left by owner and if I need any further instructions I would contact owner. I am pretty laid back and animal would have full access to home and backyard.
“Sely was super communicative and gave great care to Luna. Was constantly sending updates and photos. Would definitely have Luna stay with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter. Thanks again”
“Zec took great care of our two dogs! He’s very communicative, initiated a meet and greet before the stay to make sure our dogs got along, and sent consistent updates. His dog is a gentle giant and was so patient with our one dog (who has crazy cattle dog energy and doesn’t get along with every dog). They came home tired, happy, and healthy. He even shared some of his homemade salmon dog treats with my pups. Would recommend if you need a reliable sitter.”
“This was our first time leaving our 2 dogs with other people, let alone strangers. We went to do a meet and greet beforehand and didn’t know quite what to expect. Ryan and Chelsea were great with both of them from the start. Ryan answered all of our questions and was very open. While we were away he kept us updated with how they were doing and sent us photos and videos often. That made it so much easier to enjoy our trip and not have to worry how they were doing. When we went to pick them up, our dogs were excited to see us, but made sure to get last pets from Ryan. We know they are in good hands with Ryan and Chelsea. We will definitely be coming back to them for our trips and we highly recommend! Thank you so much!”
“Ralph and his wife went above and beyond to ensure my dogs were comfortable and well taken care of. They made their home open to them and were communicative through the entire process. I would highly recommend their services and will use their services again. Very warm people who you can tell enjoy taking care of furry friends.”
“Our two boys clearly got some good exercise with Ashley, because George has not stopped booping his leash ever since! Boys were well cared for and we would happily use Ashley again.”

About: I’ve been around cats my entire life thanks to my grandma, who always had them. Spending time with and helping care for her cats gave me experience with different personalities, and I’ll make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I have military base access and can provide pet care for families located on JBER.
“Rachel was amazing and professional and I felt totally comfortable leaving my pet in her hands! Would definitely recommend and plan to rebook! Loved all the pics and updates I got and it helped me relax knowing she was taking care of him”
“Brandon was fantastic! This was the first time I had ever left my cat without a family member or friend watching her, but Brandon made me feel very comfortable! His updates and pictures were great, and I knew my fur baby was in perfect hands. Would definitely recommend Brandon!”
About: I have been taking care of pets for family, friends, coworkers, and neighbors for as long as I can remember. I am reliable, consistent and build relationships with the pets to keep them comfortable while you are away. My full-time job has summers off, so I have more open availability. Barring the 4 or 5-hour gaps in my day with my part-time job, I can give your pet the care they need/require. I have two medium-sized dogs and a geriatric cat (he is 26!). Caring for them brings me joy and purpose. I promise to carry over that same kindness and compassion that I have with my pets to your pets. I also understand what is necessary to take care of older pets, so if they need a little extra help, I am up for it.
“Lauren took wonderful care of our cat, chickens, and plants while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and gave us real peace of mind knowing everything at home was being looked after so well. We came back to a happy cat, well cared for chickens, thriving plants, and a tidy home. We wouldn't hesitate to book Lauren again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”
“Sarah was an amazing house sitter. She was great with both of my cats and empathetic to their individual needs. The house was spotless and both cats loved her.”
“Alex is always amazing, she sends the best pet updates, pictures, and she’s so flexible and accommodating. She’s been watching my cat semi regularly for the past couple years and I will continue to book with her!!”
“Whitney took such good care of our cat while we were gone. She was very thorough with her care and provided us updates and photos daily. We will certainly be using her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for drop in care. :)”
“Shelly is fantastic. Super easy communication and took great care of my cats, including my senior cat who gets medications. I was off grid so could not communicate with Shelly while I was away but she handled everything and it went without a hitch. I hope to have Shelly watch them again.”
“Amanda has watched my cat on two separate occasions now. She’s a great sitter who obviously cares a lot and has a lot of experience with animals. My kitty always seems happy and well taken care of. She’s quickly becoming my go to sitter!”
“Sharon did a fantastic job taking care of my 2 kittens while I was out of town, she even went the extra mile to give me updates and send me pictures of them as well while I was gone. She was very kind and professional, recommend 10/10”
“Eric did an exceptional job! It was clear that he went above and beyond giving our cat some quality love and playtime, was communicative, and was generous with cute photos. During our meet and greet, he was punctual, knowledgeable, friendly, and curious about our cat's habits. We would highly recommend him.”
“Tynesha took really great care of our home and our babies, even to the point of having to scour the house to find the "hider." But she did it! They were well fed and cared for during our trip. Good and fast communication, she received and stored our package deliveries for us. House was clean and fresh on our arrival back! We are ever grateful for Tynesha's care for all of us! Not having to worry about your home and pets while on leave is a very nice feeling!”
“Sydney was awesome. Super great with communication, attention to detail and she stayed at our house while we were away. Cats were well taken care of and we’d use Sydney again in an instant. Thank you!!!”

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs with different ages, personalities, and needs. I have two dogs of my own, including a senior dog and another who has a lifelong injury requiring extra attention and specialized care. Caring for them has taught me to be patient, observant, and attentive to the little things—whether that means adjusting activities, following specific routines, giving extra time and reassurance, or simply knowing when a dog needs to slow down and rest. I understand that every pet is different, and I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. As a work-from-home professional, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. My flexible schedule allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, walks, playtime, and regular potty breaks throughout the day. I’m home most of the time, so your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches. I enjoy having pets around while I work and can easily incorporate their needs into my day while still maintaining a reliable routine. Whether your pet needs extra attention, a midday walk, medication reminders, or simply someone nearby, I’m able to provide consistent, loving care. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I take that responsibility seriously. I provide a calm, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel secure and at home. I’m attentive to their behavior, routines, and individual needs, and I’m careful to maintain a safe environment both inside and outside the home. My goal is simple: when you’re away, you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and receiving plenty of love and attention.
“Trey did a wonderful job caring for my pup. I felt lucky to have found someone to watch my dog who is happens to be an excellent trainer! She is patient, skilled and so kind! She walked me through her training series with my dog each step of the way.”
About: My husband and I lost our great Pyrenees last year :( We miss him. We would like to watch another dog because our shihtzu is getting older and does not like to hike anymore. She does enjoy her walks tho. We like all types of dogs as long as they are well behaved and get along with cats and other dogs. Our home is 2,800 sq ft and we have a 10,000 sq ft yard. We can only host 1 dog so your dog will be well taken care. We prefer only one at a time since we also have a cat but may make an exception if from the same family . I am currently working part time but work from home most of the time. My husband also works from home . We walk our dog 2 -3 times a day. We like to hike and during the summer and in winter we walk the trails that are right next to our home. I have a fenced yard , but can also crate your baby if you prefer. We have everything needed for a big or little dog.

About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember and have been caring for them since I was a little kid. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and they are truly family to me. One of my most meaningful experiences was caring for my late dog, Roo, who battled cancer for about a year before we lost her in September. During that time, I gained experience providing medication, extra comfort, patience, and specialized care. I have a 1 year old puppy named Tilly and a 14 year old dog named Leo who keep me active and remind me every day how important exercise, playtime, routine, and affection are. I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own! Whether your pup loves to play, go on walks, or curl up on the couch for cuddles, they’ll receive plenty of attention and care while staying with me. My goal is for every dog to feel safe, happy, loved, and right at home while you’re away. I work from 10am-4pm Monday to Thursday. Friday-Sunday I am off! Before and after work, I make sure dogs get plenty of attention, exercise, and potty breaks!! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure fenced backyard for supervised play and plenty of space for dogs to relax indoors. My own dogs are friendly, playful, and very accustomed to being around other dogs. I carefully introduce pets with slow introduction so your dog won’t get overwhelmed. I follow each owner’s instructions, and maintain routines as closely as possible. I provide lots of attention, updates, and LOTS of photos throughout their stay!
“Zechariah was absolutely amazing with my sweet boy. My dog is usually kind of timid but he warmed right up and had an amazing time. Zechariah was extremely flexible, communicative, and kind when I’d do check ins and spent a lot of time making sure my bazey boy felt happy and loved.”
“Ariane was awesome! She was extremely flexible, communicative, and professional. We felt very comfortable leaving our pup, Brody, in her care! She sent lots of pictures and videos to let us know that Brody was having a blast with her and her dog, Nanuk. We were so excited that our little guy made a new best friend, Nanuk, who is so well behaved with such a calm and gentle soul. Would definitely recommend her to everyone!”
“Rogue loved his stays at Crystals house for doggy day care. She was very responsive, had great communication, provided us with updates and photos throughout the day. He loved playing with the other dogs. The second day we dropped him off he was running up to Crystal like he had a new best friend. Highly recommend and will be using her as a sitter in the future.”

About: I’m Zoey, I’m 30 and from Texas, I’ve been in Alaska almost 9 years. Animal lover and plant enthusiast!! I’ve loved taking care of animals since I was a little girl, I’ve always felt connected to all walks of life, and found them extremely intriguing and inspiring. My friends and family have counted on me to walk and sit for their pets for years now, including cats, dogs, ferrets, fish, birds and plants and a couple reptiles here and there :) hope to meet ur pup soon! I’m an owner of almost 50 indoor house plants. Which calls for routine and not quite like an animal, but I love them that much, I love taking care of things is what I’m trying to say :-) I wanna spend more time with animals than humans, life’s ruff.

About: Current medical student with so much motivation to get outside with my dog in between studying. I'm also a professional photographer, so expect lot's of photos of your pup! When I was a kid, I always wanted a dog….but we owned everything except a dog due to our lack of a yard. To solve this, I would knock on my neighbors doors to walk and play with their dogs everyday. Now I can finally live out my hotel for dogs dreams. My rescue dog, Cowboy, would also love a furry friend. He was the dog the shelter used to socialize their dogs and I’m sure he misses it. I hope I can help you out and use the experience I’ve gained from training him and the dogs in my childhood to love and care for your friend! I work from home and have plenty of time to care for your pet. I take my dog on 2 walks a day and spend a lot of time playing, training, and cuddling. I would love to share this time with your pet too. I have a fully enclosed private back yard. Right outside my front door is a short walk to a park and many other walking trails.
“Jen was great with Joey! It rained most of the day so she made a point to take him to stores (Lowe’s etc) where he could get plenty of exercise. Joey came home happy and tired after spending the day with Jen!!!”

Prices are estimates per walk. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: Roughly two years ago, I received a call from a colleague asking to house sit for a weekend after a previous bad experience with boarding two dogs. Both with health issues and one of them not sociable with other dogs. My colleague came back to a clean home, garden watered, mail organized and the dogs very well loved and walked everyday. Ever since, I have housesat for anywhere from 48hrs to nearly 30 days at a time with zero issues. Bed time rituals, feeding songs, walking a slightly reactive dog, cuddling very closely at night were the priorities at the top of the to-do list. Now that two years have passed since that first call I have decided to try my hand at truly making dog walking/house sitting/drop-in playdates a side gig! I work 12hrs a day, rotating weeks 3 days or 4 days a week. Typically Wednesday/Thursday-Saturday off every week. I am up early most mornings in my time off, can make myself available for late nights Wednesday-Friday as well. In your home, I will follow all requests diligently, check all doors and windows before leaving or before bed. I am MANDT de-escalation trained, CPR/BLS certified and will soon be training to further my EMS-adjacent skillsets. In emergencies, I understand the importance of prioritizing the fur babies and keeping them out of harm’s way.
“Olga did a great job walking my dog, Jenny on short notice. I would use her again without hesitation. She was always right on time, sent lots of photos and also checked to make sure Jenny's water bowl was full.”

About: I offer in-home boarding with a fully fenced yard and a flexible schedule for consistent walks and attention. I foster dogs, so I’m comfortable with different personalities and helping them settle in. I’m active and outside often, but I also keep things calm and structured depending on what your dog needs. Clear communication, regular updates, and a safe, steady environment. I offer dog walking Monday through Friday with a flexible daytime schedule that allows for consistent, unrushed walks. I provide in-home boarding seven days a week, including weekends. Your dog will have access to a fully fenced yard, regular exercise, and a structured but relaxed home environment. If you have specific timing needs during the week, feel free to reach out — I’m happy to coordinate when possible. I have a fully fenced yard for secure outdoor time and always supervise dogs while they’re outside. Indoors, I keep a clean, organized environment and remove any items that could be chewed or ingested. Because I foster, I’m used to gradual introductions, monitoring behavior, and helping dogs settle in safely. I maintain consistent routines, separate dogs when needed, and never leave unfamiliar dogs unattended together. I also follow owner instructions closely regarding feeding, medications, and crate use. Clear communication and proactive supervision are important to me.
About: What will set me apart: My attention to detail and adherence to your instruction to the letter. I will additionally tidy, clean, and make coming home a pleasure! I’m technical savvy and love to send photos of happy angels while you travel! I simply want to treat you and yours the way I want my sitters to treat me and mine. I work full time for the FAA as a technical support specialist and have for the last 12 years. I telework 100% and make my own schedule. Pet sitting is a natural extention of my work day with tons of flexibility mixed in. LLet me know what you require and I'll make it happen. In my own environment, I have a good sized fenced in yard with a dog door. Hannah basically goes where she wants when she wants, except when I leave the house. She like to talk to the neighbors and needs a little help when she get super chatty. My sweet cat, Ponyo, naturally stays inside. She will venture out from time to time if the door is open but always comes back pretty quick. Lot's of fresh water around and meals are planned and controlled to avoid obesity.
“This was my first time leaving my dog with someone, and Brandon proved to be extremely trustworthy. Trust is a major factor for me, and he made the entire experience much more comfortable. I felt confident knowing my dog was in good hands. He will definitely be my go-to sitter moving forward.”
About: Ive had dogs in my life for just about all of it. I figured why not walk dogs and make some side cash while I walk around. Taking care of pets and walking dogs is more of just a part time thing I'm doing to pass the time and get to hang out with animals. Before I moved to Anchorage my family had 4 dogs that I took care of on a daily basis. I always make sure the dog is secured to a lease before I bring them out. Currently on a part time seasonal schedule with more time going to be available in the winter. Figured this would be a great way to stay active and outside while going into the winter months I've have plenty of experience with dogs and their care growing up in northwest Alaska. My siblings and I all had dogs growing up from newborn pups to our fathers dog that lived until he was 21.
“Alex speaks dog!! She knows how to communicate with your animal and you. We have been apprehensive about finding a new walker as our pup has a high prey drive, is dog reactive, but Alex is so smart in the ways she handles our dog. Her rover card updates are excellent.”
About: Hi there! I have been training and working with dogs of all ages for over 10 year now. Never too old to learn a new trick:) I am extremely versatile and happy to adapt to your pups speed. I love adventuring along side mans best friend. I love long hikes too:) As well as being a dog trainer I am also a horse trainer!

I am doing most of it online therefore I have a very flexible schedule! Always looking for more time and adventures with dogs. Patients is key! I understand not every dog is ready to jump into a new environment! And I am ready to work with them. Whether it is fear of being created, scared of new trails or people. We will work through it together(maybe with a little help from treats!) I am very aware of diets and allergies. And will keep your friend as safe as I would keep my own!

About: More than just a walk—I give every dog the care, attention, and love they deserve. I treat every pet like my own, taking the time to understand their personality, routine, and needs. I’m dependable, attentive, and focused on making every walk or sitting experience safe, fun, and stress-free—for both pets and their people. Your dog isn’t just another booking—they’re family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I make time throughout my day for walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins while staying attentive to each pet’s individual routine. I’m organized and dependable, so your pet gets the care and attention they need without feeling rushed. Caring for pets isn’t just something I fit into my day—it’s something I look forward to. Since I don’t currently have pets of my own or a house, I provide care in my client’s home. I make sure to follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I respect each client’s home and make sure it stays clean, secure, and comfortable while they’re away. Most importantly, I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same care I would want for my own.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was old enough to take care of myself. As a child, we had cats in our family. As I grew older, I became the resident animal sitter for the neighborhood. I would walk, feed, and play with them for extra money. As an adult, I regularly watch my friends dogs and cats while they are out of town, staying in their homes, as to not disturb the routines of the beloved furry friends. I love their company. I’m currently work for myself, and can accommodate to the needs of the animals I watch. I own a business doing bodywork, and am flexible day to day. I’m available to watch your home and your pets. I currently do not have any pets of my own, so I am flexible to accommodate.
About: I have lived with cats my entire life, and own two currently. I regularly check on friends cats and dogs when they are out of town (for the past 10 years), so I am confident in my abilities to give your pets the attention they need while you're away. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with patience, attention, and respect. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, medication reminders, enrichment, or just some extra companionship while you're away, I’ll make sure they feel safe and cared for. I work remotely as a postdoc for UAF and my schedule can be flexible to work with yours/your pets needs! I enjoy spending time outdoors, and I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, and active outings tailored to your pet’s needs. I’m reliable, communicative, and will always send updates so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. I have two cats and will generally not be accepting any stay-over visits at my own house. They are really friendly and love humans but other pets would be stressful for everyone!
About: I’ve taken care of neighbors and friends dogs for years! i love going over and meeting new dogs and playing and. taking care of them! I am in college currently but have plenty of free time to watch and play with animals! Most my classes are online so the longest I would have to be away would be 2 hours! I have a fully fenced yard and allow dogs in my home! I can’t wait to have your dogs over and take care of them!
About: I have loved most animals for as long as I can remember. I am very compassionate towards animals and feel love and concern when I see a lost or unloved animal. I have pet and house sat for two families who came back to me multiple times. I am always willing to adjust my usual routine to make the owners and their furry family members comfortable. I sat for a friend once who requested that I keep their large, fluffy husky mix in my car whenever I left the house. My priority will always be keeping your furbabies happy, healthy, safe, and comfortable. Last, but certainly not least, I have two dogs of my own who I treat as if they were my own children. I am always thinking of how I would want other humans to treat them when I decide how to work with someone else's pets. During the summer, my pet care will be my highest priority. During the school year (mid August through late December and mid January through late May) I work as a teaching assistant and must prioritize that but I would endeavor to schedule all non-work related activities around the needs of the pet and their family. As I have two dogs of my own neither of which get along well with other dogs, I would not be able to care for another pet in my own home, but I am always willing to stay in another home if pets require constant supervision. I would always follow any instructions regarding pet care given me by the owners. If clear instructions are not given to me, I will ask questions and I will simply do my best to make the pet comfortable and not to change their routine more than absolutely necessary.

“Julie was awesome again. Finn had a great time. She always provides lots of pictures and was able to help my puppy through a bought of diarrhea while I was out of town. When I went to open the car door to load Finn up and go home after his stay, he ran back to their front door, sat down, and looked at me wanting to get back to his friends :). I will definitely reserve time with them again when I need it.”
“Lisa and Jay took awesome care of my girl. Looks like the first day or two was a bit rough, but she quickly realized life was continuing as it always had. I really appreciated all the fun pictures during my travels and I was so relieved not having to worry about her. I’m sorry orca ate all of Lily’s food, she may have gained a pound or two as you said?😉 thank you again for taking such amazing care of my little Sheba.”
“This was the first time we had used rover so didn’t really know what to expect but Kaitlin and John were great from the start. We arranged a meet and greet and we could see our dog Frank was happy as soon as he got there so we booked once we got home. They were very accommodating when we asked to move the drop off time due to flight change, and provided pictures and updates each day. Frank enjoyed his time with their family and we would highly recommend.”
“Our dog seemed to enjoy her stay. Great yard for play, and neighborhood for walks. Kaitlin gave great updates during the stay and was flexible with us for drop off and pick up.”
“Jadae was absolutely amazing with my baby Dozr! She watched him for a day and a half and treated him like part of her family. Her two little girls were so sweet with him, and it was clear he felt comfortable, loved, and well cared for the entire time. Jadae kept me updated, made sure all of his needs were met, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I could tell Dozr was happy, safe, and getting plenty of attention and affection. I highly recommend Jadae to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and loving dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Prospect was in great company and thoroughly enjoyed his time with Aiko and her family :) Great communicators, flexible with my changing pickup & dropoff times, and my boy was returned to me safe & happy. Would recommend to anyone!”
“This was my first experience using Rover and someone besides family to watch our German shepherd. I was worried about him getting along in a new place. Turned out, he had a great time. I was sent pictures of him playing. Now that he is home, he looks a little bored! Thank you to Sharon and Michael. I am planning on using your services again.”
“Nev had great communication and took great care of our sweet Willow! She was very flexible with our delayed flights & always reached out if she had any questions. We really appreciated her! :)”
About: Hi! I’m Susie. I’ve always been an animal lover and know how much our pets mean to us. For years I’ve cared for my friends’ dogs whenever they traveled, and after realizing how much I enjoy it, I decided to join Rover. At home, I have a dachshund named Nugget and a cat named Cosmo, so caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday life. I live in a single-family home with my son, and we have a fully fenced backyard with a medium-sized doggy door, giving dogs plenty of room to safely play and explore. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, relaxed, and at home while they’re with us. I’ll follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible and send regular photo updates so you can see how they’re doing while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I work from home 4 days a week so I am available often. Thursday I go into the office 9-5, so animal would need to handle some alone time (crated/house trained) I follow instructions left by owner and if I need any further instructions I would contact owner. I am pretty laid back and animal would have full access to home and backyard.
“Zec took great care of our two dogs! He’s very communicative, initiated a meet and greet before the stay to make sure our dogs got along, and sent consistent updates. His dog is a gentle giant and was so patient with our one dog (who has crazy cattle dog energy and doesn’t get along with every dog). They came home tired, happy, and healthy. He even shared some of his homemade salmon dog treats with my pups. Would recommend if you need a reliable sitter.”
“This was our first time leaving our 2 dogs with other people, let alone strangers. We went to do a meet and greet beforehand and didn’t know quite what to expect. Ryan and Chelsea were great with both of them from the start. Ryan answered all of our questions and was very open. While we were away he kept us updated with how they were doing and sent us photos and videos often. That made it so much easier to enjoy our trip and not have to worry how they were doing. When we went to pick them up, our dogs were excited to see us, but made sure to get last pets from Ryan. We know they are in good hands with Ryan and Chelsea. We will definitely be coming back to them for our trips and we highly recommend! Thank you so much!”
“Our two boys clearly got some good exercise with Ashley, because George has not stopped booping his leash ever since! Boys were well cared for and we would happily use Ashley again.”
“Crystal was amazing with our puppy! She was very attentive and gave wonderful advice for somethings that she noticed with our girl. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter!”
“Ashlee took amazing care of my dog, Charlie. This was the first time I’d ever used a boarding service, so I was very nervous. Ashlee even sent me pictures of Charlie during her stay. I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Ashlee’s care of my puppy. 11/10 highly recommended!”
“She was great and I accommodated my last minute emergency with my pup and she was able to care for her. I'm glad she was happy and I really appreciate it. Thank you!”
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs with different ages, personalities, and needs. I have two dogs of my own, including a senior dog and another who has a lifelong injury requiring extra attention and specialized care. Caring for them has taught me to be patient, observant, and attentive to the little things—whether that means adjusting activities, following specific routines, giving extra time and reassurance, or simply knowing when a dog needs to slow down and rest. I understand that every pet is different, and I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. As a work-from-home professional, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. My flexible schedule allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, walks, playtime, and regular potty breaks throughout the day. I’m home most of the time, so your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches. I enjoy having pets around while I work and can easily incorporate their needs into my day while still maintaining a reliable routine. Whether your pet needs extra attention, a midday walk, medication reminders, or simply someone nearby, I’m able to provide consistent, loving care. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I take that responsibility seriously. I provide a calm, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel secure and at home. I’m attentive to their behavior, routines, and individual needs, and I’m careful to maintain a safe environment both inside and outside the home. My goal is simple: when you’re away, you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and receiving plenty of love and attention.

Im flexible for now You can calls or text to fit a schedule also i can do overnight if you need . Please let me know :) As a pet caregiver, I offer both in-home pet care services for my clients' pets as well as care for my own pets at home. When caring for pets in my own home, I ensure that they have plenty of food and fresh water, clean litter boxes (if applicable), and comfortable bedding. I also provide daily playtime and exercise, as well as regular grooming to keep them looking and feeling their best. When providing care in my clients' homes, I follow their specific instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any other special needs their pets may have.
