Highly-rated overnight sitters - Brookside
“Rachel was amazing! She sent us pictures and updates during stay and let us know of any issues our pup was having. My sweet girl has food allergies and Rachel reached out to let us know plus did what she could to help. Will 100% be using her again in the future.”
“They were amazing!! Super attentive, caring and kept us updated with pictures the whole time. Our pets were happy and well take care of. We’ll definitely book with them again. Highly recommend!! 🐾 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”
“Barrie is awesome. She’s shared videos and pics regularly, which is priceless when away from my baby. She was so patient and loving with him when it rained (he’s so fearful of storms) She created new game's that Garrison and I now play. I could see the love she showered my baby with from the video’s and pics. Garrison will be back to see her!!!!”
“Tatiana was WONDERFUL! She walked Harley a ton which I know Harley enjoyed, especially after a long car ride the day before. I could tell immediately that Harley was comfortable with Tatiana and her family and that’s saying a lot because Harley can be very timid and shy around new people. Thank you for sending plenty of picture updates too, I’ll definitely be booking again when I’m in the area!!!”
“This was our first experience with Brittney and it was superb. She was very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times; plenty of pictures along the stay; and best of all Murphy came home a happy fella. I can highly recommend Brittney.”
“We have never had a bad booking on Rover BUT Chyra is the best, BAR NONE! She provides great instructions to set expectations. She went ABOVE AND BEYOND treating a hot spot that appeared, she gave me something to read explaining my dog's behavior AND she even went to the store for us to get some extra supplies we needed. If all of that doesn't say enough, i couldn't get Chadwick to leave with me... HOW EMBARRASSING! It goes without saying that we've found our forever sitter because the icing on the top is she's :10 minutes away from us!”
“Another wonderful stay with Jessica! She treats my puppy like her own. We are so grateful for her updates throughout our trip and the detailed report she provides when we return home. She’s the best and has a lovely home full of love and toys.”
“Doug is a very thoughtful and kind sitter. He took excellent care of my elderly puppy and kept me updated on how she was doing. I am very thankful that he was able to take care of her while we were away!”
“Katie and her family did a wonderful job of making our Stella feel at home. She kept us updated with pictures and texts the entire time. It made us feel good that they said they would miss her when she left. Would definitely recommend and use again!”
“Ashley was awesome with our two Boxer girls! Mags and Su had a blast playing in the big fenced back yard & with her pup and senior Boxer. I honestly think Su is going to have separation anxiety from Freya, she loved playing with her so much!! Ashley sent daily updates with photos/videos. We would highly recommend, especially if you have a Boxer, trusting Ashley with your fur babes!”
“I was so happy knowing that while I was doing extra traveling for work Nova would be so well taken care of. It’s evident that she loves it with Cody and has such an amazing time always. Never any problems when booking with Cody. Will definitely use again in the future.”
“Sarah was absolutely wonderful! She let me book my dog Mickey when it was very last minute and sent several updates while she was there. Would definitely use Sarah again and would highly recommend to anyone needing her services. Thank you again, Sarah! Mick sure did enjoy her vacay! :)”
“Wade & Morgan were fantastic hosts for our dog Boone over Memorial Day Weekend. Boone had a ball playing with their dog Atlas for 3 days. Wade and Morgan sent pictures and provided updates everyday. Would highly recommend!”
“Shelby was amazing!! She took amazing care of our golden retriever and we never stressed or worried about her the entire time she was there. She actually brought Rory to our wedding for pictures which meant so much to us. She truly went above and beyond!”
“I had to take a last minute trip out of state and used Rover for the first time. I chose Libby and she was absolutely wonderful. She was easy to book last minute and she took good care of my fur babies. I have a 9 year old Samoyed/Husky mix and a 6 month old Samoyed. She was very responsive and sent the best pictures and videos of my babies. I highly recommend her and I will definitely book with Libby again in the future.”
“If I could leave 10 out of 5 stars I would! Amanda was wonderful and we could not have asked for a better experience. Besides being kind, gentle, and thoughtful, she was very caring and gave our dog lots of attention. We had multiple pictures and videos, which were so nice. She took Oliver on walks every day, not down the street, but to a park every day. She also fed him home cooked chicken (with my approval) to try to get him to eat (picky eater!). I know Oliver had a great time and it was so nice not worrying about our little boy! We will definitely use her again! Thank you Amanda!”

About: I first fell in love with cats when I was a little girl. I have a pit bull and Labrador , and the rest is history. I believe my calm demeanor puts most cats at ease, even the ones I have been told are shy around new people. Even though I grew up with dogs, cats now have a special place in my heart and I adore caring for them. I now have my own cat thanks to the Cat Distribution System named shadow
About: I have taken care of dogs for the past 5 years, including a chihuahua of my own and my family’s dogs. I have experience raising puppies and caring for senior dogs as well.

I am currently a student and have plenty of down time when I am not at school. This includes Fridays and Weekends and I can be pretty flexible with time! I keep frequent communication with pet owners, I’m able to accommodate to a dog needs, and am pretty knowledgeable about dog behavior to know their needs.
“Britiany took GREAT care of our sweet kitty boys while we were gone for the weekend. She was very detail oriented and left report cards of each of her visits and sent us pictures of our fluffy boys. She took extra time to play with them and try to wear them out before the 4th of July fireworks got started, so hopefully our kitty who’s afraid of storms would be too tied to care! So very kind and thoughtful! We will definitely book Britiany again in the future!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats in my family when I was younger but recently I have adopted 2 of my very own kittens who are so friendly and gentle. I’m always aware of what could be dangerous to cats like flowers and other things around the house and avoid buying those products to keep my cats healthy. I love to maintain my cats litter boxes so they are always comfortable using a clean fresh litter stainless steel litter box. My cat once had a cut on his nose and I would always be sure to medicate his wound whenever it was time for his medication so he could recover quickly.
About: I would love to walk/ hike with your pet, care for it at your home, or drop in to let them out. I have always loved animals ever since I was little. My first job was a pet sitting service, I was frequently asked to watch neighbors dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, etc. My friends often rely on me to take care of their animals while out of town and I have experience with older dogs as well as puppies.

I make sure to not leave pets alone too long and to be there for feeding times and to keep them company at night.
About: Hi! I’m Raegan - professional belly-rubber, treat dispenser, and adventure buddy for your fur baby. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your BFF. Whether they love long walks, tug-of-war, or cozy nap sessions, I’ve got it covered. I’ve got experience with all kinds of pups - high energy, shy, sassy, or seniors - and I tailor each visit to make your dog feel safe, loved, and totally spoiled (in the best way). I also know how important consistency is when it comes to training, and I know how quickly they can get off track. I’m happy to discuss and follow any and all expectations while I’m with your pup so they don’t lose any progress while you’re away. I can promise your baby will have plenty of potty breaks and long walks, and I also have a large gated porch that they’ll be able to play their hearts out off-leash. I’ll always make sure to send updates, photos, and a little note about our time together so your time away from them can be as stress free as possible. I can’t wait to meet your pup! ❤︎ I recently lost my soul dog, Mello, so I have a lot of room in my house and heart to love on your pup(s)! I do work full-time, but my office is less than 10 minutes from home so I can provide multiple potty breaks even on work days. If we're hanging at my house, I have a large covered porch for the pup(s) to play on as much as they want. I also have the space to let them relax in their crate if you want to leave their crate with me. I also live in Southside which is the perfect area for long, enriching walks so we will get plenty of exercise!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Brookside
“I can’t say enough great things about Rachel! They took amazing care of our Miniature Dachshund, Ollie, while we were in town for the Supercross race. It was clear from the start that she truly loves and understands dogs. Ollie was happy, well-cared for, and I received regular updates, which gave me complete peace of mind. Finding someone you can trust with your pet is priceless, and I’m so grateful to have found Rachel. Wished we lived closer so I could continue to use her services. She has the sweetest little family too. We Highly recommend!!!”

“Dave and his family (including his canine kiddos!) were AMAZING! I cannot speak highly enough or give enough kudos and praise! Dave was an excellent communicator; he was warm, welcoming, and caring. My little guy was happy and excited to see Dave’s pups and Dave, and to me, says everything I need to know!”
About: I have grown up taking care of not only my dogs but other people’s dogs, all types with a diverse range of personalities.

About: I've been pet sitting and walking since my freshman year of highschool! I've taken care of so many animals like cats, dogs, rabbits, chickens, and even lizards.

I’m also a canine coach at Dogtopia and have a lot of of hands on experience with dog behavior! I am a college student who needs something flexible with my full course load and that has been a little difficult, so I figured this would be a great job that could give me enough time to also do all my assignments! I make sure the animals I look after are well cared for, and the home I'm in is too if the service calls for it. I'm a strong believer of leaving places better than I found them so I love to tidy up to help your day be a little easier!

My first job was a pet sitting service, I was frequently asked to watch neighbors dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, etc. My friends often rely on me to take care of their animals while out of town and I have experience with older dogs as well as puppies. My dog passed away earlier this year and I won't be ready for anther dog anytime soon, but I would love to share love with your animals. I work seasonally and am currently off for my winter season. I would love to spend time with your animals either at your home or on walks/hikes! I can not watch pets in my own home but in my client's home I make sure to follow their rules and ask the important questions up front. I make sure to not leave pets alone too long and to be there for feeding times and to keep them company at night.
About: Having grown up with animals most my life…I pride myself in the ability to comfort and love your furry friend… Even from a distance. My special skills, are soft skills… Meaning that I work best with slow warm-ups for any anxious pets. But also, I’m ready for any high energy animals as well. I go to school, and work during the weekdays… But have a giant break in the middle of the day, for any pet care. Weekends work best for me. Making sure to adapt to whatever the pet owner, and pet need. Whether that means space, or extra attention… I can be that in-between person you request. I also pride myself on attention to detail… So will notice any change in behavior, or care necessary.
About: I've grown up around all sorts of pets all my life. My dad always brought around ex police dogs to train and multiple foster animals. Right now I take care of 3 donkeys, 4 goats, 2 pigs, around 30 chickens, 2 roosters, 2 cats, and 5 dogs including two French bull dogs, two large Belgian malinois and a medium sized mutt whenever I go back home. I also help train our dogs back at home in agility training, and overall love spending time with my animals. I'm currently working as a student 4 out of the 7 times a week with no classes Saturday through Sunday and finishing classes by 12:30 to 2 pm any other day. So I have a very flexible schedule to come pet sit the animals. The only time I cant pet sit is on Fridays from 6-10 because of Powerlifitng practice. Any pet that I will care for I will treat as my own. When I go out of time and have to hire somebody to come pet sit I want them to care for my animals as if they were there own. Making sure the pet has enough water, catches its breath after playing or walking outside, and is all settled down before I leave.

I have a spacious apartment and a pet washing station so I can always give your pet a bath and a pet-friendly home where dogs can relax, play, and feel at ease.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs most of my life, ever since I was first introduced to them at nine years old. I’ve spent the most time with American and European bloodline Great Danes — a breed I absolutely adore, though I love all dogs deeply. In 2022, I worked for a professional dog care business, where I was responsible for four European Great Danes daily — all in the same home. I walked each dog three times a day, fed them individually twice a day, and made sure they had plenty of playtime and enrichment outside of their crates. I also assisted with the birth of a litter of puppies, helping weigh them, check their temperatures, and feed them a blended diet as they grew. It was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve ever had. If you’re considering booking with me, feel free to text me — I’d be happy to share photos of my experience. Looking forward to meeting your fur baby! 🐾 I’m currently on summer break from college which gives me complete flexibility to schedule any days needed I’m available Sun-Sat so feel free to reach out. In my home, your pet will be treated like family. I stick to a consistent feeding schedule, offer walks three times a day, and provide regular potty breaks. If allowed, I also work on basic training using treats. I make sure your pup gets plenty of playtime, cuddles, and affection throughout the day. I usually let dogs roam freely, but at bedtime they’ll sleep in my room so I can keep a close, loving eye on them through the night. 🐾

“Barrie is awesome. She’s shared videos and pics regularly, which is priceless when away from my baby. She was so patient and loving with him when it rained (he’s so fearful of storms) She created new game's that Garrison and I now play. I could see the love she showered my baby with from the video’s and pics. Garrison will be back to see her!!!!”
“Tatiana was WONDERFUL! She walked Harley a ton which I know Harley enjoyed, especially after a long car ride the day before. I could tell immediately that Harley was comfortable with Tatiana and her family and that’s saying a lot because Harley can be very timid and shy around new people. Thank you for sending plenty of picture updates too, I’ll definitely be booking again when I’m in the area!!!”
“This was our first experience with Brittney and it was superb. She was very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times; plenty of pictures along the stay; and best of all Murphy came home a happy fella. I can highly recommend Brittney.”
“We have never had a bad booking on Rover BUT Chyra is the best, BAR NONE! She provides great instructions to set expectations. She went ABOVE AND BEYOND treating a hot spot that appeared, she gave me something to read explaining my dog's behavior AND she even went to the store for us to get some extra supplies we needed. If all of that doesn't say enough, i couldn't get Chadwick to leave with me... HOW EMBARRASSING! It goes without saying that we've found our forever sitter because the icing on the top is she's :10 minutes away from us!”
“Another wonderful stay with Jessica! She treats my puppy like her own. We are so grateful for her updates throughout our trip and the detailed report she provides when we return home. She’s the best and has a lovely home full of love and toys.”
“Katie and her family did a wonderful job of making our Stella feel at home. She kept us updated with pictures and texts the entire time. It made us feel good that they said they would miss her when she left. Would definitely recommend and use again!”
“Ashley was awesome with our two Boxer girls! Mags and Su had a blast playing in the big fenced back yard & with her pup and senior Boxer. I honestly think Su is going to have separation anxiety from Freya, she loved playing with her so much!! Ashley sent daily updates with photos/videos. We would highly recommend, especially if you have a Boxer, trusting Ashley with your fur babes!”
“I was so happy knowing that while I was doing extra traveling for work Nova would be so well taken care of. It’s evident that she loves it with Cody and has such an amazing time always. Never any problems when booking with Cody. Will definitely use again in the future.”
“Sarah was absolutely wonderful! She let me book my dog Mickey when it was very last minute and sent several updates while she was there. Would definitely use Sarah again and would highly recommend to anyone needing her services. Thank you again, Sarah! Mick sure did enjoy her vacay! :)”
“Wade & Morgan were fantastic hosts for our dog Boone over Memorial Day Weekend. Boone had a ball playing with their dog Atlas for 3 days. Wade and Morgan sent pictures and provided updates everyday. Would highly recommend!”
“Shelby was amazing!! She took amazing care of our golden retriever and we never stressed or worried about her the entire time she was there. She actually brought Rory to our wedding for pictures which meant so much to us. She truly went above and beyond!”
“I had to take a last minute trip out of state and used Rover for the first time. I chose Libby and she was absolutely wonderful. She was easy to book last minute and she took good care of my fur babies. I have a 9 year old Samoyed/Husky mix and a 6 month old Samoyed. She was very responsive and sent the best pictures and videos of my babies. I highly recommend her and I will definitely book with Libby again in the future.”
“If I could leave 10 out of 5 stars I would! Amanda was wonderful and we could not have asked for a better experience. Besides being kind, gentle, and thoughtful, she was very caring and gave our dog lots of attention. We had multiple pictures and videos, which were so nice. She took Oliver on walks every day, not down the street, but to a park every day. She also fed him home cooked chicken (with my approval) to try to get him to eat (picky eater!). I know Oliver had a great time and it was so nice not worrying about our little boy! We will definitely use her again! Thank you Amanda!”
