“Katie is AMAZING. Took such good care of my fur child. All the kids and doggos spoiled my dog with cuddles and attention. She was easy to communicate with, sent lots of pictures, and allowed us to do a meet and greet first. Will absolutely use her in the future.”

“Savannah was great! She even sat down with my dog, who is terrified of grooming, and brushed through her ridiculously large amount of fur for 45 minutes! You can tell she has a love for animals.”


“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!”

“Jessica was great! We got pictures every day and a video too! We could tell she made our old girl comfortable and happy in a new environment. She also has a one level house with no stairs to the backyard which is great for dogs with arthritis. We will definitely use her again next time we go out of town!”

“Bama 🐶 had a great first time boarding stay with Kristen and her family. Kristen communicated during his stay and sent pics which eased my mind that he was doing well. He felt loved and right at home with them. I would definitely book with them again and i know he would love to come back!”

“Tatiana was awesome! I got lots of updates with pictures and videos and communication and I knew my Daisy was in good hands! Daisy had so much fun playing and she got lots of cuddles. We will definitely book again!”

“Tony took very great care of my doggie. He actually spoiled him rotten!! LOL. He can watch him anytime. I will continue to book with Tony for upcoming boarding and drop-in services.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sac was wonderful with my dog, April! She took great care of him and kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. April came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. It was clear that Sac treated him like her own dog. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you, Sac, for taking such great care of April!”

“Opal was incredible and I will definitely use her services when going out of town again! My sweet dog is 11 years old and has very bad arthritis but she took the best care of him and loved him like he was her own, and he had a great time! It’s so relieving when you find someone who will love and take care of your pet just as you do at home and will keep you updated with photos and videos each day. 5-stars!”

“David was great, he was very caring for my high energy Golden Retriever and kind the whole experience. He also took care of my older miniature Dachshund, and they were returned to us so happy and well exercised. He accommodated us even though my request was very last minute, and sent pictures and videos daily. If you are looking for someone who will treat your pups like their own family then look no further than David. I am not easily impressed whatsoever, but I cannot speak highly enough of him and will be returning in the future! Thank you so much!”

“Brittany is the best! Repeat customer here! My pup has the best time when she stays with Brittany. She sends pictures and updates the whole time. So thankful for how well she takes care of my fur baby!”

“Doug has become one of pur dog's favorite people!! She is always pleased to spend time in his home when we are away. Doug also is very conscientious about her feedings which are a bit complicated. So glad to have found him!?”

“Stephanie did a great job with our boy Bodhi. She was sweet, caring and we can tell Bodhi enjoyed his stay. Highly recommend her. She will be our go to in the future.”

“She sent all the pics so I could see my babies while away! My dog also pulled a never seen before stunt and she called me immediately and communicated what was going on. I felt very comfortable with her in charge of my dogs!”

“Laura was amazing! She agreed to keep my dog at the last minute when I was scrambling for care. I was nervous since this was my first time using someone for boarding, but Laura quickly eased my fears. Murphy had a blast and came home happy and exhausted. Will definitely use her in the future!”

“I am absolutely blown away at how wonderful Randy was for our little Princess Poppy. She was made to feel part of his family and home. She loved it so much she didn’t want to leave. He took her to dog parks and even went shopping for more special stuffy toys, he sent pics and videos daily. He communicated very well. We will definitely be reaching out for Pet sitting services again.”

About: My family has spent a a long time caring for and loving cats of all ages and personalities—from playful kittens full of energy to calm, cherished senior cats who prefer quiet companionship. Each cat is treated as family in our home, with respect for their unique temperament, routines, and boundaries. I understand that cats thrive on consistency, patience, and gentle attention. Whether it’s playtime, feeding routines, litter box care, or simply providing a comforting presence, I take the time to ensure each cat feels safe, secure, and understood. Our own cat is leash-trained, reflecting the care and patience we bring to every aspect of feline responsibility. I know how important your cat’s health, comfort, and emotional well-being are, especially when your schedule keeps you busy or you’re away from home. It would be my privilege to provide dependable, compassionate cat care.
“This was our first time using Emilia and she did an amazing job. I’ve learned to be clear with Rover sitters on the few things that are really important to us and she did both of them to the letter. Exactly on time to the reservation request, and pictures of all that was asked. Our cats are extra skittish with strangers but she found all of them and made sure they were as comfortable as possible”
“Tara was great to work with. She clearly cares about animals and their wellbeing- you can be sure you’re leaving yours in good hands! Tara also made sure I felt as comfortable as possible, checked in with tons of photos and happenings daily.”

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, farms animals. Loving and caring for animals is my passion. They can be just a sprout all the way to a retired old baby and I will be happy to care for them. If in home stays are required I will have to bring my son with me he is 2 months old currently. My husband may come as well. We will completely respect your home. I’m currently working full time but plan on switch careers and would love to give this a try and see where it takes me in life. In my home, my dog, Buddy, is spoiled rotten. Lots of loves, plenty of cuddles. He is allowed on furniture. He doesn’t have a fenced in yard but he know his boundaries. In your home, I am more than willing to go by your rules.

“We are very grateful to Kordell for taking long (2 weeks) care of our Kotik (cat). At the end, Kotik felt himself with Kordell as in his own house. Great job! Thank you.”


“Davonna did a great job with Sly. He's a very shy cat. She was very good with that and was able to keep him as comfortable about us being gone as she could. Love that she was punctual, communicated well with us, and was reliable. Thanks Davonna... we will definitely be back in touch when we need a sitter again.”

“I cannot say enough good about Savannah! She is an absolutely amazing caretaker. She treated my little girl like she was her own. If I could give her 10 out of 5 stars I would.”

About: Ive taken care of animals since I was a child, I volunteer at pet shelters and have training as a vet tech from a vet clinic. I am a mama bear when it comes to all animals, they are treated with respect and love. I am a receptionist and mother of 2 boys, and my husband works from home as an accountant. Your dog or cat will be in great hands, I will walk them and take potty breaks. When I am away at work or the store they will be separated from other animals and given toys and water until I get home. I keep an eye on them with a baby monitor. My husband works from home and will also be helping me take care of the fur babies. When we are home they will be out and monitored and loved on. They sleep in crates at night on occasion or in our bed. They get healthy treats and tons of toys. They have a fenced yard to play and run in.
About: 30 years of experience having dogs & cats as part of the family. Now passing my love of caring for animals down to my daughters & they want to help care for as many as possible. We are available for boarding, drop-in visits, dog walking, doggie daycare, & more. I am currently a homeschool mom and have a very flexible schedule. We will be as accommodating as possible for your pets individual needs & treat them as part of our family. We have a huge fenced in back yard. Two girls that love animals more than anything in life. Your dog will have fun and be well cared for while you are out of town! We will send you pictures and updates during your time away. And I can easily crate your dog if needed, (but will only if you do this at home).
“Opal was so wonderful! You can really tell she loves animals. I felt very comfortable that my babies were safe and in good hands. They had a blast running around outside and playing with the other dog. She sent me regular updates with photos and videos throughout the day. I look forward to booking with Opal again!”

“My babies came home fully intact! No parts missing lol! Jessica was a great host for my children. She sent updates throughout the day along with photographs. From the moment I dropped them off I was confident I had chosen the right person for the task. She is a pleasant human with a big heart. Yep, my babies came home just as I dropped them off, happy and all parts intact! Thank you Jessica!”

“Jennifer was the absolute best with my fur baby Bentley!! He had so much fun playing with her fur babies he slept so good the next day! I was so impressed with her services I asked if she could keep my human babies! lol Will definitely use her again!”

“We were planning to leave our pups in a large kennel outside because we were only taking a day trip. Last minute, I feel that it is going to be too cold for me to be comfortable leaving them outside. David agreed to take them last minute, easing my concerns. We felt our pups were well cared for during their time with David. He kept us updated on them settling in. He sent us a video of our pups outside, behaving as they would if they were home. All of David's interactions with us during their stay allowed us to enjoy time with our family without concern. We are also sitters so, the fact that I would highly recommend David should speak volumes.”

“Very impressed!! She has a well organized business and was wonderful to work with . Our dog went for daycare to see how it would go with hopes of sending him for overnight boarding in the future. We will definitely plan to use Kylie when we have out of town plans!!”

“Laura is great! I will definitely book again. She was able to keep my fur baby on short notice with no hesitation. Her home was clean and welcoming with fenced in back yard perfect for pets. My pup is usually very shy, but immediately warmed up to Laura and her husband. Laura kept me up to date on how he was doing throughout the stay and sent pictures as well. She's a great sitter!”


“I absolutely cannot compromise on is knowing my sweet puppy Mango is not just safe, but truly loved, happy, and well-cared for while I’m away. That’s where Adelle comes in, and she has been nothing short of a miracle. Adelle has given me something priceless: true peace of mind. Knowing Mango is in her loving hands allows me to focus completely on my craft without that worry in the back of my mind. For a chef who lives and breathes their passion, that trust is everything. Adelle, I honestly couldn’t repay you in this lifetime for the comfort and joy you bring to both Mango and me. You’re not just a dog sitter you’re a friend, again thank you so much ❤️🤍💙⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🥭 - Chef Jay & Mango ✨✨”

About: I adore dogs and would love to take care of your family members. I work from home so I’m able to be a consistent companion during the day, have a fenced yard for play, am active and love to take walks (if your pup likes). My old gal was with us for 17 years so I have elderly dog experience. I’m so excited to love on your dogs. I work from home, so during the week I am here most of the time apart from going to the gym or running errands. On weekends if your pet can’t be left alone for a couple of hours just check in with me at booking! I have a fenced yard, no pets currently, and a son (17) who is super sweet but usually at school or soccer training. I’m able to provide frequent breaks and walks.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets since I was a kid. I grew up with 10 dogs and 4 cats. I still dog sit for my parents all the time and they have 11 dogs. I also have 2 dogs of my own. I have tons of experience and there isn’t anyone who loves animals more! I work remotely, so I’m usually available and flexible most weekdays for drop-ins, walks, playtime, and check-ins. Since I’m home often, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I follow any direction my clients give! I’m experienced giving medicine to dogs and I am very attentive to any and all pets. I am very detail oriented and very reliable.
About: With over 16 years of experience in animal care, I bring a strong background in both small and large animals, including horses, livestock, and dogs. I’ve worked in veterinary clinics and dog boarding facilities, which gave me hands-on experience with animals of all temperaments and needs. While I value the structure of those settings, I believe in-home care is the most comfortable and stress-free option for most pets. I currently care for two dogs and two horses of my own, and I approach every client’s animal with the same level of respect, patience, and attentiveness I give my own. House Sitting Availability: I’m available for overnight care only, providing feeding, walks, and supervision during the night hours. Drop-In Visits Availability: I can provide up to two drop-in visits per day, including feeding, potty breaks, and basic care. In home boarding : I live in an apartment with a fenced deck, have two friendly dogs, and kids aged 3 and 8. I provide plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. I never board more than one family at a time, so your pup gets all the care and attention they need while you’re away. I prioritize safety and trust above all else when caring for pets in your home. Creating a calm, secure environment is essential to help your pets feel comfortable and relaxed while you’re away. I treat your home and pets with the same respect and care I would expect for my own!

About: I have over nine years of experience caring for dogs, including one year as a boarder. Growing up, I fostered dogs and cared for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I genuinely love spending time with dogs, but since I can’t have one where I live, getting to walk and care for them every day brings me so much joy! Whether your pup needs extra playtime, careful attention, or a dependable walker, I’m here to help. As an online student at UAB, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate walks and pet care throughout any day of the week. I’m usually up by 6 AM, so I’m available for early morning walks if needed. However, I prefer not to do nighttime walks for safety reasons. Whether your pup needs a midday walk or an afternoon play session, I’m happy to be there! I provide pet care in clients’ homes, following all given instructions to ensure consistency and comfort for your dog. Whether it’s walking, exercise, feeding schedules, or crate time, I follow routines closely to keep pets happy and stress-free. I prioritize safety, trust, and personalized care to make sure your pet feels comfortable while you’re away.

About: Hi, I’m Laniee — a passionate, dependable pet care provider with years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and turning that passion into a lifelong career is something I’m actively working toward every day. I’m currently taking classes to continue advancing my knowledge in animal behavior, pet care, and training so I can provide the highest quality care possible for every pet I meet. I’m also in the beginning stages of building my own pet service business, The Elite Pet Loungeeee, which will eventually offer a wide range of mobile pet services including grooming, pet photography sessions, pet taxi services, training sessions, and more. What sets me apart is the amount of genuine love, patience, attention, and care I give to every animal as if they were my own. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, comfort level, and needs, and I take the time to build trust with them at their pace. Even anxious or shy pets tend to warm up to me quickly. I live an active lifestyle, so I love spending time walking, playing, exploring, and keeping high-energy pets engaged and happy. I also enjoy slower-paced companionship for senior pets or animals who simply prefer cuddles and comfort. Whether your pet needs playtime, structure, patience, transportation assistance, or extra attention, I’m here to help make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life because caring for animals is genuinely what I love doing. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give pets the time, attention, consistency, and companionship they deserve throughout the day. I’m currently continuing my education in the pet care field while also working toward building my future business, The Elite Pet Loungeeee. Gaining hands-on experience with different breeds, personalities, behaviors, and routines is extremely important to me because I want to continue growing long-term in this career. I truly enjoy getting to know each pet individually — their quirks, habits, energy levels, favorite activities, and comfort routines. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, overnight care, playtime, medication routines, or simply keeping them company, I make sure every pet receives attentive and reliable care. Creating a safe, loving, low-stress environment for pets is always my top priority. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, protection, and affection I give my own pets. I’m a proud dog mom to my sweet girl, Coco Chanel, who has taught me so much about companionship, routine, emotional connection, and attentive care. Because of my experience with animals of different personalities and temperaments, I pay close attention to body language, comfort levels, triggers, and routines to help pets feel secure and relaxed. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining consistency, cleanliness, supervision, exercise, enrichment, hydration, feeding schedules, and emotional comfort. I also have reliable transportation available for park visits, walks, vet appointments, grooming appointments, or unexpected situations if needed. I believe pets thrive when they feel understood, comfortable, and genuinely cared for — not just watched. My goal is always to provide a calm, trustworthy, and positive experience for both pets and their owners. Feel free to message me with any questions. I’d love to meet you and your furry family members!

About: I had a dog for almost 19 years of the first 20 years of my life. She was a sister to me so I understand that pets are family. When I take care of pets, I act as though they were my own. I give them all the love and attention they might want! I am willing to play fetch on end, take them on walks, take them to a park or on a hike, feed or walk whenever needed, and any other special requirements that the pet might need. I am very flexible and understand that certain pets require certain kinds of care. I work in office most of the week so I am usually only available on the weekends. I am usually available or can be flexible with enough notice. I cannot host in my own home but treat others’ homes as a guest. I try to stay out of the way as much as I can, depending on what you prefer me to do with your pet. If outside is preferable, we will stay outside as long as the heat permits! I am respectful that play time can be disruptive within the home and do my very best to be respectful when in someone else’s home.
About: Hey there! I’m Emily — I offer reliable, loving care for both dogs and cats, and I come straight to you. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, playtime, feedings, litter box scooping, or even baths, I’ve got it covered. I don’t do boarding or keep pets at my place, but I’m happy to help however I can in your home. I’ve got years of hands-on experience and also run a rescue, so I’m used to handling all kinds of animals, personalities, and needs. I treat every pet like family and always aim to make things easy, safe, and stress-free — for you and your animals. Let me know what you need! Pet care is nonstop for me — it’s what I do every single day. My routine revolves around walks, drop-ins, baths, enrichment time, and everything in between. I’m used to being on the move and keeping up with each pet’s schedule. This isn’t just a side gig — it’s a big part of my life, and I’m fully committed to giving every pet the time and attention they deserve. I provide care in my clients’ homes where pets are most comfortable and relaxed. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible — whether that means feeding, walks, playtime, or giving medication. I’m big on building trust with each animal and making sure they feel safe while their person is away. I always leave things clean, double-check food and water, and send updates so you know your pet is in good hands.

“Katie is AMAZING. Took such good care of my fur child. All the kids and doggos spoiled my dog with cuddles and attention. She was easy to communicate with, sent lots of pictures, and allowed us to do a meet and greet first. Will absolutely use her in the future.”

“Savannah was great! She even sat down with my dog, who is terrified of grooming, and brushed through her ridiculously large amount of fur for 45 minutes! You can tell she has a love for animals.”


“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!”

“Jessica was great! We got pictures every day and a video too! We could tell she made our old girl comfortable and happy in a new environment. She also has a one level house with no stairs to the backyard which is great for dogs with arthritis. We will definitely use her again next time we go out of town!”

“Tatiana was awesome! I got lots of updates with pictures and videos and communication and I knew my Daisy was in good hands! Daisy had so much fun playing and she got lots of cuddles. We will definitely book again!”

“Tony took very great care of my doggie. He actually spoiled him rotten!! LOL. He can watch him anytime. I will continue to book with Tony for upcoming boarding and drop-in services.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sac was wonderful with my dog, April! She took great care of him and kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. April came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. It was clear that Sac treated him like her own dog. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you, Sac, for taking such great care of April!”

“Opal was incredible and I will definitely use her services when going out of town again! My sweet dog is 11 years old and has very bad arthritis but she took the best care of him and loved him like he was her own, and he had a great time! It’s so relieving when you find someone who will love and take care of your pet just as you do at home and will keep you updated with photos and videos each day. 5-stars!”

“David was great, he was very caring for my high energy Golden Retriever and kind the whole experience. He also took care of my older miniature Dachshund, and they were returned to us so happy and well exercised. He accommodated us even though my request was very last minute, and sent pictures and videos daily. If you are looking for someone who will treat your pups like their own family then look no further than David. I am not easily impressed whatsoever, but I cannot speak highly enough of him and will be returning in the future! Thank you so much!”

“Brittany is the best! Repeat customer here! My pup has the best time when she stays with Brittany. She sends pictures and updates the whole time. So thankful for how well she takes care of my fur baby!”

“Stephanie did a great job with our boy Bodhi. She was sweet, caring and we can tell Bodhi enjoyed his stay. Highly recommend her. She will be our go to in the future.”

“She sent all the pics so I could see my babies while away! My dog also pulled a never seen before stunt and she called me immediately and communicated what was going on. I felt very comfortable with her in charge of my dogs!”

“Laura was amazing! She agreed to keep my dog at the last minute when I was scrambling for care. I was nervous since this was my first time using someone for boarding, but Laura quickly eased my fears. Murphy had a blast and came home happy and exhausted. Will definitely use her in the future!”

“Jonathan and family were so kind and took great care of our dog Sookie. They were very accommodating and did a great job of communicating while we were out of town. I would 100% use Jonathan again to keep our doggie. Thank you!”

“I can’t say enough great things about Danielle’s dog boarding service! She took such wonderful care of Chyna, and it was clear from the start that she truly loves and understands dogs. Danielle kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Chyna came back happy, well-rested, and clearly loved on the entire time. Danielle treated her like family, and I’m beyond grateful for the safe, clean, and nurturing environment she provided. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals—Danielle is it! I’ll definitely be booking with her again. 🐾💕”

“Kaitlyn is one of the best sitters on Rover! She is so kind and accommodating. She let me know what was going on with my dog, and I had no concerns about Chloe’s safety. She even sent us home with a little gift. I highly recommend using Kaitlyn for all pet sitting needs 🖤”

“Charlie and family were great! Took our dog Terrance for a last minute weekend booking. Kept us updated with regular pics and texts. Would definitely use again. Thanks so much!!”

“Our pup, Willa, had a wonderful stay with Jordyn and her pups. Willa had a great time playing with the dogs and running around the backyard. We really enjoyed the updates and pictures that Jordyn sent. Communication with her was excellent from the first meet and greet to pick up time. Willa clearly loved Jordyn.”
