“Jocelyn is fabulous! We've boarded our dog with her multiple times and continue to go back. Jocelyn is ready to work with and very accommodating when travel plans change. Highly recommend Jocelyn!”
“Miranda and Joey were amazing. Our girl was so well taken care of and loved. They sent us pictures to update us and let us know how she was doing. We will definitely use them again!!”
“Lark had the perfect house for dog sitting. Big back yard for the dogs to run around in. She was very flexible with my pick up and drop off times as well. Will definitely use again.”
“Meagan and her family were so great to our Blu! She was very responsive, great at giving updates, and took him on walks. Blu struggles with allergies and she was so nice keeping us updated and was great about giving him Benadryl. Would definitely recommend her!”
“I had to leave my 5 months old dog for a week and very hesitant until I met Laura. We were able to have peaceful vacation knowing that Cookie is on good hands. I am so glad that I found a lovely family on Rover and would be able to plan for any vacation without worrying about Cookie.”
“Rebecca provided such great care for our girl! She was very informative on how our dog was doing, provided many pictures and videos, and answered any questions we had! It’s very evident that she and her family want each dog to feel so loved and cared for and for us to continue to feel connected with our pups! Definitely planning on using her again!”
“Pamela was absolutely wonderful. She kept us updated throughout the stay by sending pictures and videos, which gave us great peace of mind and let us see how much fun our dog was having. It was clear from every update that our dog was happy, comfortable, and receiving plenty of attention and care.”
“Elsy was amazing! I booked her last minute and she was more than happy to accommodate my Junebug. She kept me updated on how my puppy was doing and sent lots of pics and cute videos! This was perfect because I always get separation anxiety from my Junebug. I definitely recommend Elsy to anyone with a fur baby! They will be well taken care of and have lots of fun play time! I will most absolutely be booking Elsy for future stays. Thank you, Elsy!”
“Lindsay has taken care of Simba while i was on a work trip again. She did a great job of updating me on simba’s health and making sure he had a comfortable stay. I would definitely recommend giving Lindsay an opportunity to take care of your pup while you are away.”
“I highly recommend Elizabeth! She took excellent care of my dog, Noodles, while I was away. He was so happy and clearly well-loved during her time with him. Elizabeth kept him engaged with his favorite game of fetch and made sure he got plenty of walks. It’s such a relief to know he was in such good hands!”
“Absolutely the best guy! Pony loved him, we are so thankful we were able to leave for a week and know he was well loved and taken care of by Chase!! Updates with pictures were given everyday. Thank you so much!!!!!!”

“Everything went great! Xena was tired and ready to go home but a little reluctant to leave. I got consistent updates throughout her stay. She was treated as though she belonged to them. I will be booking again.”
“This was such a wonderful experience. I was worried about leaving two dogs for a week but Tre was amazing. My older dog gave me the cold shoulder when I got him in the car to go home - guess he was mad it took him away from all his friends. We will definately us her again.”

“Jocelyn was so wonderful with our kitties! She was incredibly communicative with pictures and updates, which gave us piece of mind while we were away. We came home to happy and content kitties which is exactly what we wanted. Thanks, Jocelyn!”

About: I’ve had cats for about 3 years now and every year I have gotten around 3 new cats. I now am responsible for 9 feline cuties. If you knew me in person you’d know that I’m obsessed with cats and my whole world revolves around them. I have devoted my life to making all my babies comfortable and for them to thrive in our environment.
About: I’ve always loved cats and wanted one ever since I was young, and when I made it to college I was finally able to fulfill that dream and adopt my first cat, Walter, who was just barely a year old when I took him in. Raising Walter has been a truly wonderful experience- I’ve loved getting to learn what kind of food works for him, what toys he prefers, when and where he likes to sleep, everything about him. That’s the thing about cats; they can be a little skittish or scratch you, but oftentimes they just need patience, love, and the right attitude. Aside from raising Walter, I’ve also helped watch friends’ cats over the past two years, including a senior cat who needed a little extra love. It’s important to me that any kitty I get to meet gets the best care possible!

About: I’ve been caring for cats for over 5 years and have experience with cats of all ages and personalities. I have many references from happy clients and treat every cat like one of my own. I have my own cat, Bentley, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I’ve always had a huge soft spot for cats, especially strays. If I come across a stray that needs help, I’ll always stop to leave out food or water if I can. Caring for animals has always been something I’m truly passionate about. I’m comfortable administering medications, cleaning litter boxes, following special feeding routines, and caring for kittens, adult cats, and senior cats. Whether your cat is playful and social or prefers to keep to themselves, I’ll be patient, respectful of their personality, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your cat is in good hands.

About: Hello! I’m Sarah! I’m an animal lover and have experience with pets of all breeds, shapes, and sizes! I think the most important part of caring for any pet is getting to know them! I would love to meet for your furry friend! Pet care is such a huge part of my life. Between my zoo of animals and the ones I get to meet through rover it is a full time job. I have never had a job I loved more! I have 3 cats and 1 dog who I love very much! All of them are spoiled rotten.

I do not take the animals in my care in the car unless there is an emergency and we do not open the front door during our stays, we go out the garage to prevent any possible chance of an escape

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and experienced pet sitter with a very flexible schedule and an active lifestyle. I love being outdoors and spending time walking, playing, and exploring with dogs. I live on acreage with plenty of open space and private trails where your dog can get lots of exercise and fresh air.

I have dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Five stars is not enough for me to rate Sarah's dog services. This is one amazing woman! It was important for me to find someone who cared as much for my dog as I did when I started looking. Without hesitation, I can say that Sarah is the kind of person I was hoping to meet. She is such a sweetheart! The care she gives to Brandy is so comforting. Sarah kept me informed about Brandy's progress by sending frequent updates! My dog was treated like she was her own! She let her play with her children, brought my dog out for walks, and played with her in the backyard. She showed no hesitation when I extended Brandy's stay, which kept me at ease. I cannot thank her and her family enough for treating my puppy like a member of the family. Brandy is so excited to go back!!”

About: As a runner from the super humid state of Arkansas, I can accommodate any level of exercise your dog may need to achieve. Also, I have always been the most responsible person in my group (many of my friends joke and call me mom). In addition, I pay close attention to details, and can follow any level of instruction (including strict feeding rules) you could give me. I was raised around animals my whole life, working with them on my farm, as well as enjoying their company indoors. I believe that's why I'm so good with animals. Animals love me and I enjoy spending time with them as well; so it's really a win-win situation! Can't wait to meet your little *or big* best friend! I will prioritize your pet! Whatever you need, I will accommodate! I know that pets are like our babies! Your furry buddy will always be happy with me around, and I will always make time for them. I will do absolutely anything you need! Even if yard work, house cleaning, litter boxes, and puppy pad duty is included! I can handle anything!

About: I own dogs, cats, and horses of my own. I've helped over 200 fosters or rescues in our home, many of which had medical issues. I've dealt with most problems that could come up with sitting! I also use Rover for my own pets, so I try to do everything that I would want a sitter to do for me! I have a pretty flexible schedule with work, so I am able to fill all of that free time with pet sitting opportunities! Let me know how I can help! I love all animals and try to take care of them as if they were my own. I also love taking photos and sending them off so you can see your animals while you are away!
About: I’ve dog watched for multiple people before and have lived in homes with roomates with pets as well! For dog sitting and taking on walks! My weeks are pretty flexible so i am available when things are needed! Open to what times are needed and work best for who needs! We have a fenced in back yard with the back door having a doggie door for easy access for the dog to go outside! Larger living area for the dog to roam around in

“Rebecca provided such great care for our girl! She was very informative on how our dog was doing, provided many pictures and videos, and answered any questions we had! It’s very evident that she and her family want each dog to feel so loved and cared for and for us to continue to feel connected with our pups! Definitely planning on using her again!”
“Elsy was amazing! I booked her last minute and she was more than happy to accommodate my Junebug. She kept me updated on how my puppy was doing and sent lots of pics and cute videos! This was perfect because I always get separation anxiety from my Junebug. I definitely recommend Elsy to anyone with a fur baby! They will be well taken care of and have lots of fun play time! I will most absolutely be booking Elsy for future stays. Thank you, Elsy!”
“Lindsay has taken care of Simba while i was on a work trip again. She did a great job of updating me on simba’s health and making sure he had a comfortable stay. I would definitely recommend giving Lindsay an opportunity to take care of your pup while you are away.”
“I highly recommend Elizabeth! She took excellent care of my dog, Noodles, while I was away. He was so happy and clearly well-loved during her time with him. Elizabeth kept him engaged with his favorite game of fetch and made sure he got plenty of walks. It’s such a relief to know he was in such good hands!”

“Everything went great! Xena was tired and ready to go home but a little reluctant to leave. I got consistent updates throughout her stay. She was treated as though she belonged to them. I will be booking again.”
“This was such a wonderful experience. I was worried about leaving two dogs for a week but Tre was amazing. My older dog gave me the cold shoulder when I got him in the car to go home - guess he was mad it took him away from all his friends. We will definately us her again.”
“Iyari was absolutely great!! It was my first time leaving my dog Jake alone with a sitter overnight so I was a little nervous. Iyari made me feel comfortable and that she would take great care of him. She sent pictures and updates everyday! I would definitely use Iyari to watch my fur baby again!”
About: I have taken care of and owned dogs my entire life, I grew up with 15 dogs on 3 acres. I have never not owned a dog with my senior pit coming up on 17 years with me. Currently home full time most days of the week, kids will be in school full time. I can work around your schedule & needs for pick-up, drop-off or drop ins. I live on 5 acres away from all main streets and a private drive for plenty of running space. I have converted my shed into a climate controlled dog house that has a fenced in area for the runners but if you prefer them to be inside I have plenty of space.
“Chanel took wonderful care of Mila! She kept me updated throughout the entire stay with lots of photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Mila was well cared for, comfortable, and happy. I really appreciated her communication and the love and attention she gave my dog. I would absolutely book with Chanel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you so much!”
