“Michelle was amazing! I felt very confident leaving my dog in her hands, and he came back to me happy as ever when she was done watching him. She also gave me very consistent updates on how he was doing! Would definitely use again!”
“Christi was amazing to work with. It’s clear she loves dogs and wants to make sure your pup has a good experience. She took wonderful care of my dog and went above and beyond when we thought Willow might have a UTI. My dog came home happy and tired. :) I will absolutely use her again!”
“Adriana is the absolute best. My pups love her so much they aren’t even excited to see me when I get back! Lol. She does a wonderful job of keeping me updated and loving on my babies. I even had a slight delay in my flight and she was so accommodating. I had nothing to worry about and could enjoy my vacation knowing my pups were in good hands.”
“Angie took great care of our pup! We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her and her family. Her home is very clean and safe. She is very responisve and sent updates during our dog’s stay. I would definitely recommend Angie and know our dog will be very excited to return to her home. Thanks so much, Angie!”
“We couldn’t be happier with Eric‘s dog sitting service! He cared for our puppy, Izzy for 16 days and truly went above and beyond. From daily walks to giving her medicine and making sure she felt safe and comfortable at home, he treated her as if she were his own. Eric‘s home is spotless, welcoming, and perfectly suited for dogs. Izzy was pampered the whole time, and we loved receiving the constant stream of photos and videos that kept us connected while we were away. This with a surprise was the custom-made poop bag pouch with a cutout of Izzy - such a thoughtful gift! We felt completely at ease knowing Izzy was in his care and will absolutely turn to Eric again whenever we need help. Highly recommended!”
“Kameron took such good care of our dog! She is responsive, prompt, and kept us updated with photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. We knew our pup was in great hands, and we’d definitely love to book with her again.”
“Highly recommend! Marichelle does a great job sending updates with pictures and videos. Luke loved being able to have a similar sized buddy to play with and received lots of great attention.”
“Treated my dog Scout like family! So happy with how well taken care of he was, as it was his first time away from us since we got him as a puppy. Will definitely book again when we go out of town!”
“Here’s a review you might find useful: Ashley and Tony were absolutely amazing! Otis had a fantastic time with them. Ashley kept us updated with tons of pictures and even made Otis some delicious puppy pancakes that he clearly loved. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We will definitely be using them again in the future!”
“Veronica was amazing. She took great care of our dog Birdie while we were out of town. She made us feel super comfortable and provided excellent care of our pup. She kept us updated everyday we were gone and even monitored our dogs eating habits as she gets a little anxious when we are away. She went above and beyond to make sure us and our dog were comfortable and we really appreciate her. We will definitely be using her again next time we go out of town.”
“It’s our first time to use Rover and Kristi accepted a last minute request. We had a great experience with Kristi. She sends us pictures/ videos / updates everyday while we were away . We know Daizo found a home while we were gone.. She is also very flexible with drop off and pick up. Highly recommended.”
“Kiersten was the absolute best! I have never left my dogs with anyone other than family, but she was kind and took the time to meet me before and let the dogs meet too. She sent me photos and videos and was so kind with all my questions and checking in. She only books 1 client at a time so I didn’t have to worry about more dogs or cats staying with her that we didn’t get to do a meet and greet with. She was very patient and understanding of our dogs “quarks”. My dogs became very comfortable at her home and comfortable with her dog. Bella was also an amazing hostess, and so kind to share her toys. We will definitely only use Kiersten if we have to leave our dogs again. 100000/10.”
“Brandon is amazing! Can’t recommend more. Great communication and kept me updated with so many photos. My dog was so peaceful and relaxed on the way home, you could tell he was well cared for and felt right at home.”
“We always love having Mikey stay with Laree and Keith! They show so much care for him and always send pictures during his stay. He always comes home very happy!”
“Danielle was amazing! You can tell she loves dogs and cares for them as if they are her own. We got daily pics and updates on Violette’s stay which we loved. Violette also got along great with Danielle’s pups. Will def be using her again!”
“Mikel was amazing, probably the best dog sitter we’ve ever had! My dog Luca is very complex, he has both physical disabilities and some emotional/behavioral struggles due to a car accident. I went on vacation for the first time since the accident, leaving him with Mikel, and was very nervous and didn’t know what to expect, but Mikel made the whole process so much easier. He kept me constantly updated with pictures and videos and took the time to understand why my dog had certain behaviors and how to try to fix and adapt to them. He would let me know of his concerns, but constantly reassured me that he could handle it, and he did. I am so grateful for his patience and understanding and would recommend him to any and everyone!”
“Emily provided truly exceptional boarding care for our pet. From the start, she was professional, attentive, and genuinely caring. She kept us updated with regular messages and wonderful photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our pet was comfortable, well cared for, and treated like part of her family. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust Emily again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for outstanding, reliable pet care!”
“Carlitos came home tired from a fun night at Amber’s! He really enjoys going there and gets visibly excited to go into the home which makes boarding him that much easier.”
“Nicole and Rose are amazing! They have helped soothe my dogs separation anxiety while I’m at work and he is so much happier! My stress has also been alleviated and I know that my baby is safe and being loved on! They send updates and pics throughout the day as well! Highly recommend if you want someone to love your dog and know your pet is being taken care of!”

“Madison is always wonderful with the kids! She did a quick drop-in to feed our three cats and made sure to spend a little time with them too. Super responsive, reliable, and sweet—we’re so grateful for her help!”
“We were in an emergency and reached out to Rover and found Sheridan and Adam P.. So happy we did. They took immediate available care of our critical short term needs then continued super care of our 3 large dogs and cats! Snuggle time, walks, food time all went unbelievably well. And we loved all the pictures. Thanks so much!”
“Courtney has provided excellent care for Sonic over the past few months. She is attentive, caring, punctual, friendly, and reliable. The first time she ever cared for Sonic, she had to do wound care for his leg injury. She followed all the directions to a "T" and provided detailed updates. This was just one example of Courtney's excellent and professional care. Sonic is an anxious dog but he seems to adore her every time she's here! We enjoy working with Courtney and can't recommend her enough!”
“Adam was an absolute lifesaver. He stepped in last minute with zero hesitation and handled everything flawlessly. Communication was clear and reassuring, he was punctual, and he treated my pets with genuine care and respect”
“Emily will definitely be invited back! She took great care of my cats, my home, the big humidifier, etc. and even bought new litter when I ran out and she couldn’t get a hold of me. I feel like I can rest easy when I’m gone knowing she’s got this.”
“Shea was AMAZING! She met with me and my cat Willy before the scheduled Rover Kitty Sitting. She was very thorough and we immediately connected. This was our first meeting and I felt completely comfortable giving her a key to my house. She did not disappoint. After she left I found my cat missing her and sleeping in the bedroom she stayed in. That told me a lot about how she cared for Willy. Highly recommend Shea!”
“Fiona is the absolute best pet sitter, my cats immediately loved her and were comfortable with her after meeting her once. I had her watch my cats I think three times, and I am so glad I did! My cats are like my kids and it was so great not having to be scared about their wellbeing while out of town. Fiona is professional and kind and provides wonderful care consistently. Best pet sitter ever!”
“Rachelle was great! Very kind and a lover of cats. She followed all of the instructions, did above and beyond, and updated me with messages and pictures. I definitely recommend!”
“Veronika was quick to respond to my initial request. This was for a short, but important trip. Veronika reassured me that my baby, Stache was in good hands, & I got the Rover cards with each visit. If she is available, I will definitely request Veronika again!”
“Kelly has been a really kind and observant catsitter for my two cats. She has written detailed reports at every visit and included daily photos of the cats. She has taken extra steps to feed the shyer cat who has not been eating much. I am very relieved my cats are under her care.”
“Avery did a wonderful job taking care of our dog. She is trustworthy and dependable. Most importantly, our dog enjoys her company. We plan on using her services again. This was our 2nd booking with her.”
“Betty was amazing! She was great with both of our cats and extremely thoughtful. She communicated very well with us and took lots of great photos! We would love to have her check in on our cats in the future!”
“Kay is awesome and I would love to have them back anytime to watch my cats. Kay has stayed over to care for my 3 cats a number of times now, often on short notice and I appreciate Kay’s flexibility. They are very communicative, sending photo and video updates throughout the day. My house always feels clean when I come home and my cats are happy and seem to be in good spirits. I didn’t have service on my last trip but I felt comfortable leaving the cats in Kay’s care. And they sent updates anyway, even though I couldn’t get them, which I really appreciated. It’s a huge weight off my shoulders to know the cats are in safe hands.”
“So kind and caring and went above and beyond taking care of my cats!! She treated them like her own pets. 1000% recommend Crystal, I will definitely be contacting her again in the future when I need a pet sitter!”
“Maren helped with a last minute request since our flight was delayed. She's someone you can count on. We also really appreciate her honest notes and pics. We know that our kitty is in excellent hands.”
“Estefany was great with my cat! My cat is shy and would hide when she first came in but she hungout and waited until he felt brave enough to come out for attention and pets. I felt reassured and confident my cat was in great hands the whole time I was away!”
“Alyssa was an excellent sitter for our cat Cassie. She was able to help out on everything we asked of her while we were out of town whether it was feeding Cassie or grabbing that unexpected piece of mail. Alyssa was very sweet and kind with Cassie and it was such a peace of mind knowing she was coming by to check on her. I had never used Rover before this vacation but I will certainly rebook with Alyssa hopefully for any future vacations we have. She is trustworthy, attentive to detail and most importantly loving with our cat. Thank you!”
“Amanda was convenient and showed up last second to help out. She sent me photos of my cat and exceeded what I needed when I was on my trip. Highly recommend and will book with Amanda again.”

“Nicole & Rose V. was absolutely wonderful with my dog! They were attentive, reliable, and made sure my pup was well cared for the entire time. My dog came home happy and relaxed. I could tell he received lots of love and attention. I would definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring sitter!”
“Kat was wonderful- she helped my daughter out last minute with her 4 month old puppy. She sent us several updates throughout the day with photos and videos. It was so helpful and comforting to know that Tank was in good hands!”
“Laree and Keith are lovely people who are clearly very experienced with dogs and love them very much. I feel like my girls are well taken care of there.”
“Rosie loves days that she gets to go to Jessica’s! She always has a great time and leaves tired. And Jessica is great at communicating and working with our schedule. Would recommend!”
“Definitely would recommend!!! My Daisy is very attached to me and has never been in someone else's care. The 2nd day when she got out of car she ran up to the door and couldn’t wait to dart in not even looking back at me. I got several updates & photos throughout the day. Will be booking with Christian & Hana again!”

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember! From snow days and trampoline adventures with my dog Bear to life with my two loyal Rhodesian Ridgebacks, animals have always been my happy place. These days, our sweet rescue Stella keeps life calm and cozy, and I still find that animals naturally seem to trust and connect with me. I’ve even taken obedience training classes because I genuinely love learning more about dog behavior and communication. I’m comfortable with energetic pups, gentle seniors, big dogs, little dogs, and yes — cats too (even if we can’t have them at home because of allergies). My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into our family’s daily routine. I’m a teacher, so I’m home during summers and school breaks, including two weeks each in fall, winter, and spring. My work schedule when teaching allows me to stop by home during lunch to check in on pets and I’m home by 3:30 PM leaving the evening open for playtime and companionship. Our two boys (13 and 15) also love animals and are learning responsibility by helping care for pets alongside me — giving extra love, playtime, walks, and attention. As a family, we’re able to comfortably provide care in our home or stop by for feedings, walks, check-ins, and play visits throughout the day. During the school year, I’m available before 7:00 AM and after 3:30 PM. I care for pets like they’re part of the family! I love greeting them with excitement, giving them attention, playtime, cuddles, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I enjoy taking dogs on walks or runs, playing fetch, and honestly love when they get the zoomies and show their personalities. Safety is always a priority. In our home, pets are supervised and can be safely crated or given their own quiet room if needed for rest, comfort, or separation. We have a fully fenced yard for outdoor play and a dog door so pets can move in and out comfortably throughout the day. We do have a pool that is not fenced, so I make sure dogs are monitored outside and will always follow the owner’s instructions regarding outdoor access and supervision. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is to make them feel safe, happy, exercised, and loved.
“I loved Krysten! She was so patient with my puppy even though he is a big boy! She took him on walks and let him around her kids. I will always come back to Krysten everytime she is available”
“Really awesome experience with them! My 9 month old dog has done both daycare and overnight boarding. My pup always has so much fun and comes back exhausted. They are super kind and genuinely care about the well being of your dog. Great communicators and just overall so grateful I found folks I can trust with my baby.”
“What can I say except at Cynthia is incredible! Oliver gets so excited as soon as he sees that we are turning onto her street. I’m always at peace when he’s with her because I know that she’s giving him all of the love, snuggles and playtime that he wants and needs. I could ask for a better person to care for my little guy!”
About: I'm from Costa Rica, but I've been in AZ for 10 years now. I've had dogs pretty much my whole life. Now I live in Tempe near the mall, and there's a park right by my apartment. My job's flexible, so I can give whatever care is needed. I love all breeds. I work from home for Bank of America, so I get off around 3 or 4, depending on daylight savings. I've got a play area in the living room with pee pads and toys for the pets, and I'll make sure to walk them when it's cooler in the morning and evening.

“We were so fortunate to have Courtney watch our Maggie this past Thursday and Friday. She was so good with our little girl since this was the first time she stayed with anyone other than my daughter. She was scared at first and Courtney sent the cutest picture of her in her lap as her co-worker. We are very pleased in how well she loved our little girl as much as we do. I would highly recommend her to everyone. Thanks again Courtney. Five plus stars for sure. 😊😋”
“Rojo and Angela were phenomenal hosts for our high energy 9 month old Golden Retriever's first daycare experience! Communication was excellent and the attention to detail was superb. We will definitely repeat!”
“Alex was very helpful watching Elsa for 2 days I had a crazy busy work schedule. He was flexible and willing to watch Elsa until late evening. Elsa is also always so excited to see Alex whenever she gets to his place.”
About: I am here for all the little doggies. I have a teacup yorkie myself. Small dogs need a safe place to be loved. Where their little egos can be fed and they can get all the cuddles needed while away from their family. I have a good size backyard, but they aren't allowed out there without supervision for their safety. My neighborhood has beautiful walking paths for daily walks. We have enough room where your dog could have a safe place of their own if he needed at nighttime. I do daily walks with my dog that your dog could join if they like. I work from home full-time so potty breaks and cuddles could be frequent if needed. Also because I work from home, if your dog prefers 3 smaller meals a day I can accommodate that type of scheduled. I would accommodate any diet schedule/accommodations needed. Some medications I could administer if needed. Your dog would get at least one walk per day. Nice backyard for them to play in. Back yard is fully fenced and does not have a pool.
“Greg is welcoming and professional. His services approach is well constructed and thoughtful. Gideon seemed to have a nice balance to his day. Thanks, Greg!”

About: Growing up, my parents always had a family dog in our home. When I turned 18 and went to college, I adopted a puppy that was abandoned in the woods and found on a hike. He became my best friend. He lived to be 14 and passed from old age/ heart murmur, February of 2022. I miss him every day and a friend I taught with, suggested I pet sit! I figured it would be worth a try, as I had pet sit for a few friends and family in the past. In 2022, I gained 30 positive reviews (on Rover) from my fabulous fur friends and their families. In 2023, I gained 17 positive reviews. In 2024, I gained 15 positive reviews. In 2025 I gained 27 positive reviews. I currently have zero negative reviews...I'd LOVE to keep it that way ;) I have several repeat clients and I encourage you to READ my reviews! -I do require a *complimentary* free Meet and Greet visit, prior to our first booking together. This ensures that we are all the best fit for one another! You reach out to me. I'll initiate the scheduling of the meet and greet visit. I usually prefer to schedule these on a Saturday or Sunday- late afternoon. You'd send me your address, as Rover does not display the pet parent's home address until both the pet sitter and pet parent have clicked the "confirm booking" button (located at the top of the message screen in the Rover app.) If you do not have the Rover app, you can use your device to go to Google. Type Rover in the Google search bar to access the website, directly. From there, log in Rover and you can navigate your way to your messages/ rover inbox. This is where you and I will do all of our communicating. Rover duplicates both the pet parent and pet sitter's messages to one another in not only the rover inbox, but also your email associated with Rover...AND your (regular) personal text messages. Drop your phone in the toilet? Just find a device with internet and log in rover. We can still communicate! Whew! Rover does protect the privacy of both the pet sitter and the pet parent, by using an alternate phone number, assigned to each party using the Rover app (this is similar to how Lyft or Uber would use a "fake" phone number for privacy reasons.) When I arrive to your home for the meet and greet, we usually sit in your doorway for the initial hello pets...lots of waggin tails ❤️ Next, we usually sit on your couch for about 30-90 minutes to talk about myself, your pet, your requests, etc. I'm usually petting your fur love as we talk, making sure we're best furrriends! To wrap up our meeting, the pet owner usually walks myself around the home, making sure to show me: The location of pet food, food dishe(s), water dishe(s), medication(s), written directions for your booking (which I will take a photo of to read later,) the bedroom I will be sleeping in, etc. I will make sure your home feels safe and clean, as I always need to keep myself and my other client's safety and health in consideration. Don't worry- your home ***does not*** need to be spotless. However, I unfortunately ***can not*** handle bed bugs, mold, head lice, fleas, ticks, scorpians, spiders, etc. PLEASE, do not waste my gas money, nor my time, by requesting a meet and greet visit, if you have experienced any of these unfortunate situations (within the last 3 years, regardless of your current residence.) I appreciate your honesty more than you'll ever know. At the meet and greet, you may ask to view my fingerprint clearance card. I usually try to remember to have it with me. I do have a reliable vehicle. I have AAA, if I were to experience vehicle issues during your booking. I also understand how to use Uber, Lyft, the city bus and even the light rail. I would always find a way to get home to your fur child. I am highly trustworthy. I am also an incredible judge of character. As long as the pet parent and I feel good about one another at the meet and greet visit, I am confident we will have a successful booking. I do send your home address to my mother, before driving to your home. This way, if you end up being a not- so- great- hooman... well, you know how that goes. ✌️ I do bring pepper spray with me to my visits, so please do not be alarmed by this precaution I take. I love cats and dogs! I love chickens and bunnies, too! Got a Nemo fish? I. got. you. I love getting to know your temperamental cat's colorful personality... Or leaving them to rule the home, while never making direct eye contact- whatever works.. I know the fur friends need our time and most importantly, our love. I will carefully follow directions you leave for me in your home. I am a very clean and organized person and would treat your family member and your home, as my own- with the most respect and care possible. ❤️ Additional services offered, ask at your meet and greet. Extra services will be paid in cash by the pet owner. Money will be left for pet sitter on kitchen counter. Extra services may include: - FREE Daily walks (usually 10-60 minutes in length, depending on weather conditions.) - FREE dog poop pick up [during walks] & throw away poop in nearest dog poop trash bin. - FREE scooping of cat litter box. - Backyard/ Frontyard dog poop pick up & throw away $25/20 minutes of my time, [depends on weather conditions & my energy levels.] - FREE Mail & or package collection *I'm not rushing home to bring your boxes inside, but yay for you!! ✌️ - FREE watering of indoor/ outdoor plants, as long as this takes me less than 10 minutes per day! -FREE trash day bin transporting, from wherever you keep your trash bins, to the front curb of your home. - $25 "House key pick up appointment" (on any day other than meet and greet appointment) *must be paid at time of key pick up appointment. Please note- If you give me the house key the day of the meet and greet, no key pick up appointment needed!!! ✌️ ...If you can use a garage code or front door code, please provide that information to me the day prior/the day of your departure for your booking. You ***do not*** need to give me a key in addition to a door/garage code, unless you want to! I do not let people "hide" the house key, UNLESS you have a working camera, which monitors the location where the key is being hid. If your camera stops working and someone finds your key- that's on you. Another alternative is a house key lock box or even a garage opener works. Please consider giving a trusted person a spare key, in the event something happens to the original key. Tell me what to do if I somehow get locked out. It's never happened, yet! Schedule: Substitute Teacher (I have a flexible schedule. I can select 4 hour/half day teaching days, too!) I work full time in education (all kinds of experience with multi tasking and distributing my attention, evenly, among the babes!) - I have to *be at* work at 7 am until 3 pm, Monday through Friday - I do not work my education job on the weekends, meaning I have some extra time for the fur friends! *I am not home 24/7, but the occasional "I'm not leaving the house for 24 straight hours day" definitely happens. Just depends on energy levels and prior commitments.* - I also have most holidays off work from my education job, as I get vacation when my students do. This means that around busy holiday times when people often travel- I am typically off work from my main job and can be available to watch your fur babies! - **On that note- to clarify, I do not stay in the home 24/7 to watch your animal (even with "overnight" visits.) During an "overnight" booking- I do sleep in your home (I love pet cuddles, if allowed!) On work nights, I sleep (usually) from around 10 pm ish until about 5 am. A normal work day's schedule may look like the following: 5 am: wake up and take fur friend potty 5:15 am: feed and water 5:30 am: take fur friend potty for post meal bathroom use 5:45 am: I lock up and head to my teaching job 12pm ish: I send you a "morning summary" message & a video of your dog eating breakfast. 4 pm: I get home and take your fur friend potty 4:15: I feed and water 4:30 take fur friend potty 4:45 ish: I leave your home and go to the gym. Maybe I grab dinner to take to your home to eat...or maybe I go walk around Target for a bit to unwind! Perhaps I'm too tired to do any of that, find a pizza and stay in & snuggle your fur love all night. It really just depends on the day. ***please understand this is my -second- job. I take it seriously, but you are not paying me to stay in your home 24/7. There ~are~ some pet sitters that are able to do that, I am not. Please understand this ~before scheduling your complimentary meet and greet appointment ❤️ 9 pm ish: I usually get ready for bed with your fur love! 10 pm- midnight ish: I send you an "evening summary" message and a video of your fur love eating dinner! My weekends, look about the same as above referenced. (I do stay up late on Friday and Saturday nights.) During the weekend, I am often home much more than I would be during the work week. (It depends on the day. Some Saturdays I go hiking & out to dinner. Others, I Netflix binge and chill with your pup for 36 straight hours. ... I use common sense. If I was gone a lot during the day prior, I try to even it out and stay in more, the following day. Safety, trust & environment: I care for pets in the pet owners home, not my own home. I maintain good relationships with my clients and really do my best to make everyone happy!! I listen to your suggestions. I take notes. I ask clarifying questions when needed and I believe that clear and effective communication is required on both my end (and the pet owner's end,) in order to maintain a healthy pet and working relationship! I lock doors. I double check that the stove is turned off. I send pictures and videos of your animal, so you can let me know if you notice something I don't. I try my best to prevent any accidents from even being possible. I'm not a perfect pet sitter, but my reviews reflect that I take this job very seriously, because I do ❤️
“Susi has been such a joy to work with this year. We are so thankful to have her when we are away. She’s dependable, communicates well and loves our dog her own. Thank you Susi!”
About: I have a big passion for dog, cats, and all sorts of furry friends. I've had multiple different kinds of pets mostly because I have a HUGE HEART for them. I have been taking care of street dogs lost or not wanted cats fishes that would be throw by the end of carnivas Guinea pigs friends haven't wanted and much more. My biggest care is to have my customers happy and comfortable, I don't want any furry friends to get to nervous! If so I'll do my best in calming them down to keep going with our mission. I am finishing online high school to enter veterinary school. Always love pets and looking forward to learn more about them. My scheduled is flexible, just looking to make more beautiful memories. I make sure pets feel safe by being patient and attentive. I keep walks calm and familiar always making sure they're secure and comfortable. I will focus on giving them gentle reassuring care, just like I do with my own dog and guinea pig. I always want them to feel at ease and cared for. I have a couple furry friends, and my pets are like human babies to me just no whining. I will provide Pictures of your furry friends to keep a comfortable connection!
“So grateful Ariana was able to walk Dexter! Ariana was super kind, professional and patient with Dexter’s leash pulling 🥹 he is in training now so hopefully he will get better and better at walks and we’ll be able to rebook Ariana soon!! Thank you SO Much! You’re amazing!”
“Madison is amazing! She takes such good care of my Dog, Toby! He’s always to happy to see her and I know she not only cares for him, but also cares about him. She communicates clearly with me how her time with him went and what they do during their time together. I’m so lucky to have connected with Madison through Rover!”
“Maria has been amazing with Olive! She’s been very patient getting Olive to warm up and now my dog has a new bestie. I can’t wait to see the report cards and all the cute photos Maria includes after each walk- it’s truly the cutest! She is reliable, responsible, and kind.”
About: Hi I’m Taylor I’m 21 years old and a huge animal lover with three dogs of my own I absolutely love caring for animals and have experience with dogs cats horses bunnies snakes lizards and other exotic pets I’m comfortable with all sizes personalities and energy levels and always make sure pets feel safe loved and happy I’m reliable patient and love spending time playing walking cuddling and caring for animals like they’re my own I also send lots of updates and pictures so you can feel relaxed and know your pets are having a great time while you’re away I have a very flexible schedule since i mainly work from home. I have a part time job but rarely work there due to personal reasons. I spoil my dogs and treat them as if they were my own kids. I take time in learning what they enjoy, and their routine to not upset them.
About: As a kid I would walk to my neighbors house and ask to play with their dogs. Not their kids, just their dogs. From there I started pet sitting for friends and family and have been doing it ever since. As an adult I have always had dogs. They truly are the best. One thing that I struggle with is whether or not they are well taken care of when I go out of town. Finding people to care for your pets as you would can be stressful. I want you to have total peace of mind when your pets are in my care because I have been in your shoes. I will love are care for your pets as if they were my own. I am a Full-time asthetician working about 30 hours per week. I love to care for pets in my free time. I especially love giving people some peace of mind knowing their fur babies are cared for when they're away for an extended amount of time. I will follow your instructions to a “T” whether that’s crating your pet, keeping on schedule with walks and potty breaks, or administering medications. I will keep your pup(s) entertained and properly snuggled.
About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember! I am new to the Rover community but I am not new to loving on the pups as I have committed myself to learning the best ways to adapt and give the best care for them. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs, I will dedicate my time to loving them (which is SO easy for me to do). I would be honored to take them to a dog park where they can also interact with the other puppers while you’re away! While I have had dogs of all sizes my entire life, I do not have any dogs of my own at the moment. This means I am full of energy and love to give to you and yours! I currently work from home part time so I have lots of time and love to give! This is intentional as I would like to spend more of time around the doggos. I am mostly available M-F but can be available on the weekends as needed, spending time with your pup is something I look forward to! My apartment has a dog park for both small and big dogs, as well as a full park just down the street. I do not own a crate of my own at the moment but I am able to set up their home crate in my space if needed.
“Dani is a truly FANTASTIC dog walker. My little homie liked her right away when they first met. I have found Dani to be very professional and completely reliable. I highly recommend her for care of your pup!”
“Alan was very receptive to all of our concerns with walking Archer. I think he did a great job with making us feel comfortable as pet parents and also giving Archer a great workout!”
“Ivyonna is very personable and interacts with the dogs really well. She seems very passionate about animals, and I would be very happy to recommend her for others that would need a dog walker.”
About: I have 40+ years of loving, nurturing and training pets, including dogs, cats, horses, birds, ferrets, reptiles. I’ve had several training workshops for horses which has amplified the quality of interaction and communication with all my pets. Animals have always been drawn to me as I to them and has always been a major component that enriches my life. You can trust that I will love your pet unconditionally and give them the attention and focus you would give them. I currently work from home which allows me the flexibility to modify my schedule based on your fur baby’s needs for walking and care routines. Each client and fur baby has their own schedule and unique needs and so I tailor my service based on each situation so as to keep their life as consistent and normal as possible while you are away.
About: I am a registered Child Care provider and have decided to expand to pet care. I am patient, have two dogs that are loved and an integral part of my daycare. I aspire to give dogs in my care the kind of love and attention I give to my own. Nothing but the best! I am currently available 7am-7pm. I am flexible and can schedule walk as need for your pet. You decide and I'll make it work for you! I am with my dogs all day long due to my work. They have an automatic food and water dispenser available for them at all times. I am flexible and will do what is best for your pet and what they know and love. The best care and comfort is what I strive for everyday!
About: Hi! I’m an animal lover who enjoys spending time with dogs of all ages and sizes. I’m patient, dependable, and dedicated to making sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s going for walks, playing fetch, sticking to their routine, or providing plenty of cuddles, I’ll make sure your dog gets the care and attention they need. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll keep you updated so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾 Pet care is already a part of my daily routine because I enjoy being around animals and staying active. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide regular walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention, ensuring pets receive consistent and reliable care. 🐾 I live in an apartment complex so I am regularly walking my beagle every 6 hours. When in other people’s homes I fit my schedule around my clients to ensure the pets routine and daily needs are taken care of first!
About: I can tell you confidently, that I don't just love dogs as others say; they are not just "furbabies." I dont intend to replace you with my love and care. I respect them, and your time. Please do not book me if you have a perfect, calm dog, as I think we would both be bored.. HI everyone, my name is Madison! I have a range of animals that I take care of including: a guinea pig, dog, and 3 cats! This supports my experience in animal care, and what to expect. Coming onto this app, I'd really love to work with, care, train, and connect with your dog! I have trained the Chihuahua Mix in my photos. She needed help with walking on the leash, lunging, and being less attached to her owners. (She had separation anxiety). Throughout our bond, I have been patient with her, always allowing her to take her time with things, to both understand, and adjust. I can do basic leash training, and corrections for wrong behavior. I have experience with an Aussie cattle dog that had issues with pulling, and manners. Overtime, I've been working with him using all methods to my disposal: calm confidence energy, treats, and different methods to ensure focus (without krabby patties!) I tackle leashed behavioral issues, manners on walks, patience, and respect. I have confidence when teaching tricks; like sitting, paw, spin, and more. I am still learning more ways to help dogs that need more advanced work. I am very passionate about leash training. I can help the dog gain focus on the human, to become a follower, and practice good self esteem. I can make a confident dog. Aggression, bad behavior, pulling, or uncomfortable leash issues arent a red flag for me. I'd love to take any animal. As long as they don't attack me! I have loads of free time, and would love to share it with your pets! I commute using an E Bike, with long range. Active hours are 12:00 PM to midnight. Sometimes earlier, Sometimes later. I reply to all morning requests right when I log on at 2:00pm! Mad.dychan is a tag I created with the camera feature for Samsung Galaxy S series. Some photos I have cropped it off others still have it. NOTE ON BOOKINGS: Because true behavioral progress and leash confidence take time and consistency, I FOCUS MY SCHEDULE ON RECURRING, WEEKLY (or daily) WALKING CLIENTS. I love building long-term friendships with dogs so we can actively tackle habits like pulling or anxiety. I have a job, a different one, I deliver food, and I am getting into writing unfiltered societal truths, and AI. I want to transition directly into animal care at the same time. I believe taking care of animals should always be in your daily routine because when I get tired I always make sure I take my dog out for a walk. With the cats I take care of, I make sure to feed them wet food, and dry food at the same time everyday, listen to their cues, and instinctively know what they want/need based on what they do/express. It feels like a natural instinct not a obligation to me. I'm always going to put my pets first. I find myself worrying, and thinking about them before making any sort of big decisions, and I will advocate for them in difficult situations. How I plan to take care of these animals safely in their own home as mine is unavailable.. is by respecting their boundaries.. First of all, not getting too close if they are upset with it, but also making sure they read the energy I give them. I'll always enter with a positive energy so they know I'm positive, and a calm energied person. If leashing in their home is required thats okay too. Honestly just patience, care, and most importantly repetition.

“Michelle was amazing! I felt very confident leaving my dog in her hands, and he came back to me happy as ever when she was done watching him. She also gave me very consistent updates on how he was doing! Would definitely use again!”
“Christi was amazing to work with. It’s clear she loves dogs and wants to make sure your pup has a good experience. She took wonderful care of my dog and went above and beyond when we thought Willow might have a UTI. My dog came home happy and tired. :) I will absolutely use her again!”
“Julie and James were amazing! This was the first time I have ever left my dogs with anyone., She made me feel at ease. Julie sent pictures and communicated with me every step of the way. When we came home my dogs are even better behaved then when I dropped them off. I would definitely take my dogs there again and would recommend her and her family.”
“We couldn’t be happier with Eric‘s dog sitting service! He cared for our puppy, Izzy for 16 days and truly went above and beyond. From daily walks to giving her medicine and making sure she felt safe and comfortable at home, he treated her as if she were his own. Eric‘s home is spotless, welcoming, and perfectly suited for dogs. Izzy was pampered the whole time, and we loved receiving the constant stream of photos and videos that kept us connected while we were away. This with a surprise was the custom-made poop bag pouch with a cutout of Izzy - such a thoughtful gift! We felt completely at ease knowing Izzy was in his care and will absolutely turn to Eric again whenever we need help. Highly recommended!”
“Here’s a review you might find useful: Ashley and Tony were absolutely amazing! Otis had a fantastic time with them. Ashley kept us updated with tons of pictures and even made Otis some delicious puppy pancakes that he clearly loved. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We will definitely be using them again in the future!”
“Always the best! Great pics and communication is always consistent. I appreciate this family for the time they spend wuth Delphi. She's always excited to visit and cones home healthy. Thanks Ashley and her girls.”
“Veronica was amazing. She took great care of our dog Birdie while we were out of town. She made us feel super comfortable and provided excellent care of our pup. She kept us updated everyday we were gone and even monitored our dogs eating habits as she gets a little anxious when we are away. She went above and beyond to make sure us and our dog were comfortable and we really appreciate her. We will definitely be using her again next time we go out of town.”
“Kiersten was the absolute best! I have never left my dogs with anyone other than family, but she was kind and took the time to meet me before and let the dogs meet too. She sent me photos and videos and was so kind with all my questions and checking in. She only books 1 client at a time so I didn’t have to worry about more dogs or cats staying with her that we didn’t get to do a meet and greet with. She was very patient and understanding of our dogs “quarks”. My dogs became very comfortable at her home and comfortable with her dog. Bella was also an amazing hostess, and so kind to share her toys. We will definitely only use Kiersten if we have to leave our dogs again. 100000/10.”
“We always love having Mikey stay with Laree and Keith! They show so much care for him and always send pictures during his stay. He always comes home very happy!”
“Mikel was amazing, probably the best dog sitter we’ve ever had! My dog Luca is very complex, he has both physical disabilities and some emotional/behavioral struggles due to a car accident. I went on vacation for the first time since the accident, leaving him with Mikel, and was very nervous and didn’t know what to expect, but Mikel made the whole process so much easier. He kept me constantly updated with pictures and videos and took the time to understand why my dog had certain behaviors and how to try to fix and adapt to them. He would let me know of his concerns, but constantly reassured me that he could handle it, and he did. I am so grateful for his patience and understanding and would recommend him to any and everyone!”
“Stacy was so great with Rya. She gave me updates each day to ease my mind and ensure that Rya was in great hands. Rya came back super happy after her stay, and I will definitely be using Stacy again in the future! :)”
“William and team are the best! Our pup Zeus always has the best time. The team is easy to reach and provides updates throughout the stay. We know we can count on them!”
“Most AMAZING dog caregivers my pup has ever stayed with! No words can really express how grateful & happy I am with my pup staying with these two wonderful people! My dog is 12 1/2 years old and was attacked last year by a much bigger dog. I did inform them of this and they so kindly sent me pictures, videos and updates of how he was doing multiple times a day! It really put me at ease while I was traveling out of state. They have three adorable and very friendly dogs of their own who were so sweet to my smaller and much older dog. The couple was so friendly, caring and down to earth! They truly do LOVE dogs! They definitely treated mine like one of their own! You know your dog had the time of his life when after you pick him up, he walks straight to his bed to fall asleep seconds after walking through our front door! Thank you so very much from Cooper and myself… he can’t wait to come stay with your family again soon!”
“George had another great stay with Melanie. I really appreciate that she’s very responsible with not only George but the other dogs she cares for too. Thanks Melanie and see you again soon.”
“Darbi and Nathanael took excellent care of our three pups. They offered a meet and greet ahead of our first booking, which was wonderful. We felt reassured and worry free leaving our pups in their care traveling. They paid careful attention to each pup’s needs and shared updates of how it was going. When we picked up our pups, they seemed to have had a wonderful time and were very content. Thank you for your care! We appreciate it and will rebook.”
“Celeste was awesome sauce. Very attentive with Mathius and if he's happy so I'm I. Great with communication and also accommodating with times for drop and pick. Thanks J. Scott”
