“Michelle and her husband are wonderful. They helped me out in a pinch and more importantly, they are very responsible and caring dog handlers. They are great people and I felt very comfortable with them taking good care of my little guy.”
“Seth and Connie and their sweet daughters were incredible sitters for Pippin! They were very prompt to respond, easy-going and I could tell my dog instantly fell in love with them. Thank you so much for all of your care and attention!”
“Can we give 100 stars? We went to Hawaii and are pretty sure our dog might have had more fun with Lara than we did on our trip. (Which is hard. The trip was awesome.) ?? Our dog is a dog's dog. He loves playing with others pups, and had the chance to do so all week. Every single video she sent showed him just having the best time with the other dogs-- and he even got to go out with the horses on the road! Our dog has A LOT of food issues and it was worrying that he would get into something (he is unable to eat anything except for his specialized food)-- not a problem. She kept him safe and made sure he didn't have anything he wasn't supposed to. Lara and her family are a true dog sitting gem. I need to plan another vacay just so our guy can stay with them again. Thank you, Lara! Consider us fans for life.”
“Sara has been wonderful with my dog, Nova! She was able to take care of her on short notice and always sends updates with pictures. I appreciate her flexibility and reliability!”
“Lauren was absolutely spectacular with our doggies! She was super communicative and gave great updates throughout the weekend we were away. It gave me so much peace of mind that my dogs were doing so well while we were away. Would 100% recommend Lauren and will be using her again in the future!”
“Our Louie loved being with Christie, Daniel and their beautiful family. He got along with their pups and was ready for a long nap when he got home. That tells me he had an amazing time and we can't wait for our next visit!”
“Beth was amazing, I couldn’t recommend her more!! She was quick to respond and sent updates and pictures of Benji throughout his stay. Benji got his own vacation while I got mine, he was able to hang out with other dogs and live as if he were at home. I felt very comfortable and safe leaving my pup here. I will be using Beth again in the future!”
“Gail is awesome!! My 13 yr old pup needed a vet visit and meds under her care and she was right on top of it. She took great care of him! Gail is my new go-to dog sitter!”
“Left our Teddy for 10 days with Ron. Ron communicated and sent us some pics everyday. Teddy had a great time with Lily and Canoli. He received excellent care with Ron and we're sure Teddy will visit his new friends again.”
“Antonio took great care of our pup. He was very easy to communicate with and provided updates throughout the stay with pictures and videos. We would definitely use him again to watch our pup and recommend him.”
“This was our first experience using Rover for boarding and are VERY satisfied with how Kimberly cared for our dog. For the first time we didn't feel guilty boarding our dog as Kimberly's daily updates with photos showed a relaxed and happy dog who was definitely getting all the attention he craves!”
“Andreah did a great job taking care of my two pups. One of my dogs is an attention seeker and Andreah had no issues handling him with extra care while still being attentive to my other senior dog. I received regular text and photo updates. I will definitely hire her again to care for my fur babies.”
“They were the best. Truly listening to what the needs were for Sophie to have a comfortable stay, they delivered 100%. It is challenging to find the right fit for a dog that is accustomed to spending most of her time with her humans. We are so happy that they were available and flexible!”
“Yogi was well-cared for by JD and Michelle. She is our velcro dog so we were comforted knowing she could would be in the company of someone throughout her stay. They are dog people who treated her like one of the family.”
“Amazing dog family. I had to go out of town for a few days and didn't have any problem at all with fear or apprehension because I knew my animal is cared for. Extra playtime and walking because my dog is super energetic and needs the exercise. Thanks for the great job.”
“Elizabeth was amazing with Tom, he is rarely boarded, it was an unexpected situation for me and our family that required me to find a loving environment for a couple weeks and she stepped up in such a big way to provide a great loving environment which gave us so much peace knowing he was in good hands. Thank you”
“What a wonderful experience we had with Dave and Becky! Lots of pictures, stories, and adventures! We knew she would be very happy in their beautiful home and huge backyard! She will miss the squirrels and helping Dave with the new floors though! :) So very grateful we found Dave and Becky and will definitely use their services again!!”
“Sheila and David are terrific pet sitters ! They had Elroy over for a meet and greet and showed us the fenced, safe backyard where the dogs can play. Little Elroy stayed overnight and made fast friends with their pups. He came home happy and tired from playing.”
“I absolutely love Ashley!!!! She takes such good care of my James and I have zero worries when I go on vacation!!!!!! I can’t tell you enough how great she is! Especially if you have special needs dogs, she is the one to turn to!! We love you Ashley!”

“Griselda has been our go to sitter for years. She is great with the cats and she helps relieve their stress when their pet parents are away. If you get a chance to book Griselda, you cannot do any better for your pets.”
“We had a great experience with Lauren. She came by to let out my dogs Presley and Kovu and took such good care of them. She was reliable and communicative. The dogs seemed happy and comfortable with her. We really appreciated the updates and care she gave them and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Wonderful and always communicated and sent pictures. Have already rebooked with her. Cant say thanks enough for her willingness to drive to a decent remote area of Arizona to help with my dog and cat. It takes a lot of stress off regarding my busy schedule.”
“Ashley is simply wonderful! My cat really loves her and she’s a breath of fresh air when it comes to providing for your kitty while you are away. Thank you, Ashley for everything you do!”
“Joe was great! I think the dogs like him more than us now. He kept to the schedule and provided constant updates and photos. Would definitely recommend him to anyone and will use him again going forward when the doggos need watching.”
“Melayna did a great job caring for my cat and home while I was away. My kitty is very shy at first and Melayna was patient and sweet, and brought him out of his shell. The house was just as I had left it. Fantastic experience and I look forward to having Melayna stay again. Thank you!”
About: Hi! I’m Anna, and I’d love to care for your cat while you’re away. I’m a proud cat parent myself (that’s Clark in the picture❤️) and completely understand the unique personalities (and quirks!) that come with our feline friends. Whether your cat is social and playful or independent and reserved, I’m comfortable adapting to their vibe and needs. I’ve cared for cats for friends and family over the years and treat each one like they’re my own. From feeding, litter box cleanup, and playtime to quiet companionship or medication needs, I’ll make sure your kitty feels safe, relaxed, and well-loved while you’re gone.
About: a lot of the families i was hired for were mainly dogs but majority of them also had cats! while they were mainly focused on the dogs because they typically need more care, i was also focused on learning about the cats as well! i also live with a couple of rescue cats currently!
About: I currently have a 10 year old small rescue dog of my own. She was shy at first but after much love and caring I got her out of her shell. I have experience with rescue dogs and dogs requiring special medication/needs. I am taking care of my dog with Addison's disease, requiring daily medicine and special food diet. I can take dogs on long walks, to the dog park, stay over at your place to comfort them and get plenty of play/ love time. I am a grad student with a flexible schedule and can cater to you and your dogs needs to ensure they have a great time away. My whole life I have had small/ medium dogs as family pets and can manage to take care of them. I also have a small kitten that I recently adopted to house train. I have a love for animals. Looking forward to meeting the dogs/ cats and owners! Looking forward to being flexible with your schedule and pets needs. I am a morning person and would love to start my day and end my day with your pet. I have a fenced yard that is safe for the animals. I am able to crate animals safely if need be and let them out often to roam the house. Also, feel confident in halter/leash set-up to ensure great walks!
About: I’ve been dedicated to animal care for as long as I can remember — from volunteering at shelters as a kid to professionally walking dogs and advocating for animal welfare throughout my life. I bring more than just experience; I bring heart. I’m especially skilled with both puppy care and senior pets, understanding their unique needs, whether it’s gentle guidance for the young ones or extra patience and support for older companions. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and enriching environment tailored to each pet’s personality and routine. Every animal in my care is treated like family — with compassion, consistency, and a whole lot of love. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. As a student with classes only on Saturdays, I have a flexible schedule during the week and weekends, making me readily available for walks, drop-ins, or extended care. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so whether it's part of my morning routine or winding down in the evening, I’m always happy to make time for quality care, play, and companionship. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize maintaining their usual routine to help them feel safe and relaxed while you're away. I take the time to understand each pet’s specific needs — from feeding schedules and exercise routines to any medications or special instructions. I keep things clean, calm, and comfortable, and I always respect your space as if it were my own. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship, I make sure your pet gets the attention and care they’re used to — and lots of love, too. Regular updates and photos are always part of the package, so you can feel confident and connected while you're away.

“Reagan is happy, tired, and beaming after her day with her favorite people and pups. And I am her happy person knowing she had another day of fun and exceptional care. Reagan is always happy and confident after her time with Christie, Daniel, and their family, and we can’t wait until our next play day in a few weeks.”
“Very positive experience for us and the pups. Great environment for both physical and mental stimulation for the pups. Lara clearly a knowledgeable and caring dog and animal lover. Lara kept us in the loop with pictures and commentary throughout the day. You can’t go wrong with Lara and family watching over your pups.”
“What a great family! We did a drop off day care with them. Coco's tail was wagging away when we arrived, she knew she was in for some fun. They were so easy to communicate with, and you can tell that they all love pups. We were very happy with Coco's stay - we will definitely ask them again. Thank you Seth and Connie”
About: I have a bachelor’s degree in animal and equine science. I am a certified veterinary technician and skilled with medication administration. I have owned my own pet sitting business for 12 years Pets are my life. They always come as my number one priority and yours will as well! Every day revolves around the animals and pets first. Everything else is secondary. I have 2 acres that are completely fenced in and an additional back yard that is fully fenced and walled. Pets are free to sleep on beds, couches or wherever else they are comfortable.
“Our little Coco had a GREAT day with Brynna. We had a last minute need for daycare and she was so nice to do a quick meet and greet the day before. Brynna is amazing with communication and response time. You can immediately tell that she LOVES all pups. Ours is just 11 months old and very busy and active and Brynna dove in and enjoyed it all. Her home is perfect inside and out for the pups and she really took the time to make it special for our Coco. We will definitely use her again. Thank you Brynna”
“Layla spent her days with a 3 year old to play with and was spoiled rotten. She looked so happy in the pictures I was sent so I didn't have to worry about Layla while at work!”
“Lynda, Roberto and Maria M. we’re fantastic. They immediately put me at ease by showing me their backyard, allowing my dog Bailey to meet their two dogs and they also showed me the areas the dogs rest during the day. They are very genuine and kind people and I could tell they genuinely love dogs. They are open and communicative and sent me pictures, and video throughout the day. Bailey has the tendency to get nervous when we leave her somewhere new and they were wise to keep Bailey busy while I left so that she didn’t notice me go and they gently let her get used to their home at her pace. I will definitely take Bailey again.”

“Beth took exceptional care of my pup! She sent us a photo update and was able to accommodate our late pick up time. I will definitely be using Beth again!”
“Barbara was so kind and easy to work with. She sent pictures and updates of our pup throughout his stay which made me feel relaxed knowing he was safe and having a good time. He got play time and walks and was tuckered out when he got home. It was clear Barbara enjoys what she is doing, which really makes a difference. Will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Felt very safe leaving Zarina with her. She was very communicative and patient with me. As an out of towner my guesses of how long everything would take was a bit off. lol traffic! I will use her again!”
About: I currently work from home and am available for all of your dogs needs from companionship, stimulation and bathroom breaks. I pride myself on being available to the dogs and a present pet parent. I work from home and your pet will be included in my day to day activities as if it were my own. I am very attentive caring and sensitive to the needs of my pets which in turn will make me sensitive to the needs of your pet. The pets in my home are cared for as family, they get free reign of the house, they have full access to my back yard and they are not left alone in the back yard.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a kid. I finally adopted my own 13 years ago as puppies and rescued 2 in 2021. They are all senior dogs now with special needs- diet and medical. My one is diabetic and requires 2 injections a day. They all take medication and follow a schedule. I work from home which allows me to care for my four dogs. I have the ability to help others at this time and would love to make sure their pets are well cared for. I know how challenging it was to find care for our boys when I didn’t work from home. I care for someone’s pet as they ask me too and as I do my own. No feeding food they aren’t allowed (treats that aren’t authorized), hand feeding if necessary, plenty of potty breaks in the backyard to run (my dogs prance) and roll in the grass. I have beds and blankets for them to choose from and cuddle time on the sofa too.
“Kat has taken care of my large dog on multiple occasions, always treating him with love and patience. He is loving but excitable, and Kat always knows how to calm him and provide him a happy space.”
“I initially felt very guilty for leaving Blue with Liz . Felt like I was a bad mom until Blue woke me up every morning with excitement and running to the garage. He LOVES being there and I know Liz and her family loves him too. I cannot recommend Liz enough! But maybe I shouldn't coz she might be over booked! Lol!”
“Yaneli did a marvelous job keeping our Athena active & happy. Athena enjoyed playing with Yaneli’s dog & being out for an extensive hike. Yaneli really went above & beyond in making sure Athena was exercised & entertained!!!!”

About: I am currently a first-year veterinary student at the University of Arizona College of Veterinary Medicine, here in Oro Valley, AZ. As a student, I work with all kinds of animals, from companion animals to reptiles and farm animals! I graduated with my bachelor's degree in pre-veterinary science from Arizona State University in 2025 and hope to graduate with my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) in 2028. - I've been an animal lover since I was a child! I've worked in veterinary clinics as a veterinary assistant throughout undergrad so I have a lot of experience with all kinds of pets. I love pet-sitting through Rover as a de-stressor from school, as animals always make me happy :) - Meet and Greets are a must before our first booking to ensure I’m a good fit for you and your pet(s). - Lastly, pet safety is my priority at all times. I ensure that homes are left in the same original condition as upon arrival and lock up according to the owner’s instructions. I am currently a full time professional student doing Rover on the side to help pay off my student loans! - I still have school over the summer! My classes are from Monday-Friday. The times we have are variable for each day and are range from 8am-5pm. - Drop-ins/dog walking: We usually have a 1-hour break at 11am where I can stop by if you live close to my school, or I can come when classes are over for the day. - House-sitting: I am fully available to house-sit on weekends, but I have classes on weekdays. Though I am still able to house-sit on weekdays, keep in mind that I may be not be able to stay at your house for a good chunk of the day, depending on the day. If you need weekday house-sitting, please reach out to me with the days you need and for how much of those days you need me to be at your house! I can check my schedule and get back to you. Sometimes, we have whole mornings off or get done super early, so it just depends. Drop-ins/walking: I will always message you the time I completed my visit and send you photos of your furry friend! I can provide you with any details of the visit you need such as if they went potty, how much they ate, etc. - House-sitting: I know it's nerve-racking to leave your pet home and go off on a trip. I can send you updates with photos as often as you'd like so that you feel confident that they are in good hands. I'll always keep an eye out on my messages during my stay so I can answer you and respond with updates. I will reliably follow the directions you provide for me, making sure your pet feels safe & secure. - Please provide specific instructions for pet and home care, including safety protocols in your home. Otherwise, I am careful to not disturb anything inside your home and will ensure your home is locked up properly.

If there are requests for me to speak with my employer about leaving early for your pet, I am happy to discuss this! I always prioritize the safety of your animals by instinctually keeping the necessary doors closed/locked, checking colar/leash security before beginning walks, keeping your pet within my sight at all times, staying aware of surroundings and in control of your pet responsibly.

About: Lifelong owner of Aussies and Goldens with experience sitting Labs, Collies, and Shih Tzus. Currently dog-free and eager for a "dog fix" through reliable care! Working from home, I offer flexible morning, midday, or evening visits. Because I have a remote schedule, pet care fits seamlessly into my day. Since I don't currently have a dog of my own, these visits provide my much-needed 'dog fix' and serve as the perfect reason to step away from my desk and get active. Whether it's a brisk morning walk to start the day, a midday potty break, or evening companionship, I have the time and dedication to prioritize your pet's routine. My schedule allows me to be consistent and reliable, ensuring your pup gets the attention they deserve exactly when they need it.
About: With 30+ years of life with cats & dogs, I bring calm, loving, experienced care tailored to each dog or cat’s unique needs. I pay close attention to routines, energy levels, and personalities, whether that means long walks, slow strolls, playtime, or quiet companionship. My goal is for your cat or dog to feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for, not just watched, while you’re away. I own my own business and work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule. Because I’m in control of my day, dogs/cats get consistent attention, timely walks, meals on schedule, and plenty of companionship, never long stretches alone. This allows me to truly adapt to each dog’s/cat’s routine, energy level, and individual needs. I’m happy to care for your dog/cat in the comfort of your own home, where they feel safest and most relaxed. I follow your routines closely, i.e. walks, meals, medications, and playtime, so your dog’s/cats’s day stays familiar while you’re away. Being in their own space helps reduce stress and keeps things calm and comfortable.

About: Why Rover: Growing up with pets my whole life, I know much we love our animals. I have two dogs of my own, have fostered over 200 puppies through Home2Home STL, have trained two service dogs over the span of two years, and there is nothing I would rather do in my free time than spend it with pets! About Me: I am 21 years old and I recently moved to from St. Louis to Tucson. I am a full time student pursuing a degree in marketing. In March of 2026, with the help of Arizona State University, I was able to create my initiative titled "Speak For Those Who Can't" with the mission of helping local shelters and educating the public on unhomed dogs in Pima County. Professional Experience I am currently employed at a senior living facility. During my time in St. Louis I worked at McCready Law and was Team Lead at Everbowl. I have also been a professional nanny and have extensive childcare experience and certifications. I am trustworthy, hardworking, and responsible--but importantly, I will care for your pets as if they were my own. Feel free to check out my gallery to see images of my own dogs as well as some that I have cared for, and don't hesitate to reach out with any questions! As a college student completing my degree online, I have a fairly flexible schedule. I understand that every pet is different, and that they like to stick to their routine-especially if their owner is away. Whatever your pet needs (specific feeding times, their favorite walking route, toys, etc.) I will be able to provide! In my home, I own two dogs- one pug (Bella) and one lab (Penny.) For their safety I do not bring client's animals into my home, but since I own my own dogs, I know how important it is to trust whoever is taking care of them. When letting someone into your home and around your animals, I understand first-hand how important safety is on both ends. I have nannied and pet sat professionally since I was 16 and am now 21, and I can assure you that safety and respect for your pets and your home are my top priority.

About: I have grown up taking care of multiple dogs, including labs, shitzus, & now recently a golden doodle! I also have my own pup- Winston! He is a 2 year old Aussiedoodle. He is high energy and I did all of his training since he was a puppy. I am available most days morning to evening. I am not currently working as I just got back from backpacking South America. I have plenty of time to devote to your furry loved ones! I live in a great neighborhood on a golf course. Every morning and evening we are able to run the course and play fetch. My house has a fenced in backyard where the dogs are free to go during the day.
About: My life has revolved around animals since I can remember and caring and connecting with them is truly my passion. I’ve been a pet groomer for 6 years and have also spent a lot of time pet sitting as well as taking care of every animal you could imagine as my own. Currently I work for myself as a pet groomer so my days are very flexible. I can make my schedule work around yours as needed. My 3 dogs are treated just like children in my house and I make it a priority to make sure they get everything they need to live a full and happy life! I treat every pet in my care the same.

“Michelle and her husband are wonderful. They helped me out in a pinch and more importantly, they are very responsible and caring dog handlers. They are great people and I felt very comfortable with them taking good care of my little guy.”
“Seth and Connie and their sweet daughters were incredible sitters for Pippin! They were very prompt to respond, easy-going and I could tell my dog instantly fell in love with them. Thank you so much for all of your care and attention!”
“Can we give 100 stars? We went to Hawaii and are pretty sure our dog might have had more fun with Lara than we did on our trip. (Which is hard. The trip was awesome.) ?? Our dog is a dog's dog. He loves playing with others pups, and had the chance to do so all week. Every single video she sent showed him just having the best time with the other dogs-- and he even got to go out with the horses on the road! Our dog has A LOT of food issues and it was worrying that he would get into something (he is unable to eat anything except for his specialized food)-- not a problem. She kept him safe and made sure he didn't have anything he wasn't supposed to. Lara and her family are a true dog sitting gem. I need to plan another vacay just so our guy can stay with them again. Thank you, Lara! Consider us fans for life.”
“Sara has been wonderful with my dog, Nova! She was able to take care of her on short notice and always sends updates with pictures. I appreciate her flexibility and reliability!”
“Lauren was absolutely spectacular with our doggies! She was super communicative and gave great updates throughout the weekend we were away. It gave me so much peace of mind that my dogs were doing so well while we were away. Would 100% recommend Lauren and will be using her again in the future!”
“Our Louie loved being with Christie, Daniel and their beautiful family. He got along with their pups and was ready for a long nap when he got home. That tells me he had an amazing time and we can't wait for our next visit!”
“Gail is awesome!! My 13 yr old pup needed a vet visit and meds under her care and she was right on top of it. She took great care of him! Gail is my new go-to dog sitter!”
“Antonio took great care of our pup. He was very easy to communicate with and provided updates throughout the stay with pictures and videos. We would definitely use him again to watch our pup and recommend him.”
“Andreah did a great job taking care of my two pups. One of my dogs is an attention seeker and Andreah had no issues handling him with extra care while still being attentive to my other senior dog. I received regular text and photo updates. I will definitely hire her again to care for my fur babies.”
“They were the best. Truly listening to what the needs were for Sophie to have a comfortable stay, they delivered 100%. It is challenging to find the right fit for a dog that is accustomed to spending most of her time with her humans. We are so happy that they were available and flexible!”
“Yogi was well-cared for by JD and Michelle. She is our velcro dog so we were comforted knowing she could would be in the company of someone throughout her stay. They are dog people who treated her like one of the family.”
“Elizabeth was amazing with Tom, he is rarely boarded, it was an unexpected situation for me and our family that required me to find a loving environment for a couple weeks and she stepped up in such a big way to provide a great loving environment which gave us so much peace knowing he was in good hands. Thank you”
“What a wonderful experience we had with Dave and Becky! Lots of pictures, stories, and adventures! We knew she would be very happy in their beautiful home and huge backyard! She will miss the squirrels and helping Dave with the new floors though! :) So very grateful we found Dave and Becky and will definitely use their services again!!”

“Vicky took such great care of Beckett while we were traveling, and I especially appreciated the photos and updates throughout the trip. Would absolutely board with her again!”
“Sydny and Atiana were really excellent. The attention to detail, the communication, and the care for my dog were outstanding. This was our first time boarding with them and I will definetley be using them again. I feel comfortable with leaving my girl with them and feel she is in good hands when I need to be away. Thanks to them both for their excellent service!!!!”
“Amy was an exceptional sitter for Luna. She was eager and willing to make Luna’s stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. She sent me regular updates and photos. She followed the instructions detailing Luna’s daily routine, including two doses of seizure medication each day. Amy’s home was clean and inviting. I had no qualms about leaving Luna in their home or with Amy and Ian, her fiancé. They were very personable and super easy to work with. Communication was also easy and quick. I will definitely hire Amy again when we need a sitter for Luna.”
