“Very caring and attentive family with kids that were kind to our dog. House is safe for any dog. Sergio and Bethany were also very accommodating to the specific feeding instructions we provided.”
“Sarah took excellent care of my dog Flynn, this was my first time leaving Flynn with anyone and I felt so much better knowing Sarah was taking excellent care of him! She sent me picture updates and Flynn came home so happy! She was also quick to respond to my initial inquiry and flexible with moving the dates around since I originally booked the wrong dates. I would definitely recommend choosing Sarah as a dog sitter.”

“I have engaged John and Donna's service a couple of times and they are just terrific sitters. They took care of our Bruno as if he was their own. Our dog has become comfortable staying in their house and I wouldn't hesitate to bring him back again, when the need arises, as I know he will always be loved there.”
“I’m glad that Alex makes the meet and greet part of her process, because I was able to meet her on Thursday and drop my dog off on Friday feeling very comfortable that my dog was in good hands. Alex is home is very neat and clean. If you didn’t see the dogs, you wouldn’t know she was hosting multiple dogs by the cleanliness of her home. Alex puts the needs of the dogs first and makes sure to introduce them one by one and make sure any dogs that she’s hosting fits within the pack. I never had to worry about how my dog was doing because Alex sent me pictures throughout the day each day that my pup was with her. I’m glad to know I have a trusted pet sitter for when I need to board in the future.”
“Highly recommend Kelly! She was very communicative and sent plenty of photos during Tony’s stay. When our flight was delayed super late coming back, she was very flexible and willing to help us. We ultimately had a friend grab the little guy, but we appreciated how understanding she was. Thank you again!!”
“Paola’s family was so welcoming. My pet was so comfortable with their pets and I dint have to worry about for 2 days. She sent me pics time to time. Good thing is my 3 month pet stopped biting after he returned home. I think he learnt some good habits from her pets 😊. She let us to do meet and greet before a day to see how her environment is. We were glad we found her. Will surely consider her again.”
“Honestly couldn’t have asked for better dog sitters! They were great with communication and sending loads of updates on my pups as I was out of state getting married. They played a bunch with Bendu who is a very active and pet Sandy who only wants love. I can’t say enough positive things! They are amazing ❤️”
“Clara took great care of our son Rage. She was very sensitive to his needs and sent us regular text updates and photos. We appreciate her dedication and won't hesitate to seek her services again. Two doggie thumbs way up!”

“Alan was the perfect communicator while I was gone, providing detailed updates and plenty of photos throughout his stay. He took great care of my cats and my apartment; it felt clean and tidy when I returned, and the cats seemed happy and well cared for. I felt very comfortable having Alan with my cats while I was away on a work trip. I would absolutely have Alan return for future stays.”
“Kimberly is a pet owner's dream. She really cares. She sat and cuddled each day with my senior cat, made sure he had fresh wet food to eat during her visits, and even watered our basil plants! I will gladly pay any premium to have her come back over and over again because I trust her.”

“I loved the cat pictures and videos. Alyssa gave great updates and even made sure to take care of the house if our cats got into anything. We love using her for our Rover visits.”
“By far the best sitter we have ever had the pleasure to work with. Not only was she confident with our anxious kitten, she has the experience and care that fur parents can appreciate. Our cat has gone from being anxious to allowing Alyssa to feed her treats right out of her hand, just after two times working together! Super cool!! 10/10”
“We had our first Rover experience last week. Tom come over to visit our two cats daily for three days. He was meticulous in cleaning the litter boxes, filling food bowls and providing lots of clean water. We have two fountains which he made sure didn’t run dry. Every day we received pictures and a short note from Tom. We were really pleased that we had no worries about the cats’ health and well-being. We will definitely be using Rover again and requesting Tom specifically.”
“I have booked Vicki twice now to watch my cat. She has done an amazing job and I can tell she takes it seriously. She asks questions about my cat and has brought toys for him to keep in the past. I appreciate her fast responses, extensive photo updates, and genuine love for my animal! Will be booking her again in the future!”
“Brian was so great with our 3 cats! Very punctual and always kept us in the loop with what was happening at our home. I would definitely recommend hiring him to watch over your pets -- I know we will absolutely be hiring him again in the future!”
About: Growing up we had cats and a dog. In high school and college I regularly starting taking care of my neighbor's pets. As an adult, I've taken care of pets for family and friends. I have experience with different sized dogs, puppies and seniors. I love all types of animals! So if your adopted child isn't a furbaby, but has scales or feathers, I will love them as well! I'm currently a substitute teacher after being a full-time teacher for many years. I can't wait to meet you and take loving care of your pets. I'm available to come to your house to take care of your fur babies. When I pet sit I usually spend lots of extra time in the evening, giving them lots of love and attention.
“Adrienne was very attentive, caring, knowledgeable, prompt, and just a lovely carer to my cat, Wonton.

She played with him, showered him with attention, brushed him, gave him plenty of cuddles, and send tons of lovely pics. Will be using her again 100%.”

About: Hi! I’m Patience ! With over 10 years of experience caring for pets—ranging from energetic puppies to senior cats—I treat every pet like part of my family. As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets need tailored care to feel comfortable while you're away. A typical day in my care includes a morning walk, plenty of play sessions with chew toys, and quiet cuddles in the evening. For seniors, I focus on gentle, short walks and ensuring they have soft bedding and a calm environment. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will have company throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, allowing for frequent potty breaks every 2–3 hours and mid-day play sessions. I usually take a longer walk in the late afternoon to help them burn off energy before dinner. Your pet's safety is my top priority. I require a meet-and-greet to ensure we are a perfect match. I only communicate through Rover for your security and mine. I am highly observant of behavior, ensuring pets are never put in stressful situations and that their environment is secure.
“Cola loved coming to Kelly’s home everyday! She knew where she was being dropped off and was excited every time. We will be using Kelly again for daycare!”
“Jim&Ivy took exceptional care of our Goldendoodle Bingo. Jim gave regular updates with photos how Bingo was doing . And was very flexible dropping off and picking up Bingo. Jim and Ivy took Bingo for walks and played with him. I highly recommended Jim and Ivy for your pets Boarding and Daycare needs.”
About: I've been caring for dogs and cats for more than 20 years, and spending time with animals has always been one of my favorite things. Over the years, I've cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from playful Chihuahuas and energetic puppies to gentle Huskies, senior pets, and independent cats. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give each pet. I take the time to get to know their unique personality, routines, and preferences so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and reassuring presence nearby, I'm happy to meet them where they are. I'm experienced with senior pets who need extra patience and care, including administering medications and following special routines. I'm also comfortable with puppies who are still learning and need consistency, supervision, and lots of positive reinforcement. As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to feel connected when you're away from your furry family member. That's why I provide regular updates, photos, and quick communication so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and make sure your pet feels happy, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own.

My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and make sure your pet feels happy, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own. In My Home: When your pet stays with me, they become part of the family. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where pets can relax and feel at home. My fully fenced backyard offers plenty of space for supervised outdoor play, fresh air, and potty breaks, with both grass and shaded areas to keep pets comfortable. We're also conveniently located near parks and walking trails, making it easy to provide regular exercise and enrichment. Because I work from home full-time, pets are rarely left alone and receive plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. I maintain each pet's normal feeding, walking, and sleeping schedule as closely as possible to help reduce stress and make their stay feel familiar. Safety is always my top priority, and I take the time to learn each pet's needs, preferences, and any special instructions before their stay. In Your Home: When caring for your pet in their own home, my goal is to keep their routine consistent and their environment stress-free. I follow all feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and household guidelines to ensure your pet receives the same level of care they're accustomed to. I understand that trust is essential when welcoming someone into your home, so I treat every home with the utmost respect and care. I'll keep you updated with photos, messages, and regular check-ins so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Whether it's a walk, drop-in visit, daycare, or overnight house sitting, I strive to provide dependable care and lots of love while you're away.
About: I have had a dog since I was a child and have cared for all types of dogs, from a mini dachshund to a great dane mix. I have experience with shelters dogs, dogs with anxiety, and service dogs. I currently work from home and do not have a set schedule. I do have family dinners sunday nights and am typically gone around 4 hours but otherwise, I am typically only gone an hour or so every few days. I live in an apartment but love taking the dogs out on long walks every few hours. I have a retired service dog who will keep your dog company.
“Micaela showed up early like I asked her to do. Very reliable and very sweet. She sent me pictures of my dog. I am very satisfied with her and would recommend her to my family and friends.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 50 years. They’ve been my loyal, playful companions, and I provide patient, loving care to every pup I meet. With an open daily schedule, I’m able to focus fully on pet care, giving dogs steady attention, exercise, and a calm, reliable presence you can trust. I am happy to care for your pets in your home. I am also available to bring them to my home if they get along with my three dogs. Pets in my care enjoy daily walks, quality meals, and a loving home environment. They’re treated like family, with comfort, safety, and companionship every day.
“Dallas was perfect. He loved on my dog as soon as he saw her and sent me photos before I even got to my destination. He sent a lot of photos and a video and I could tell she felt right at home. Thanks Dallas. Mitzi will be excited to see you again. 😊”
About: I grew up always having and taking care of our dogs in our home. Now as a mother of three, I've also had the privilege of caring for our Boston Terrier Coco of 8 years (who crossed the rainbow bridge last year) and Charlie, our Goldendoodle of almost two years. Our pets are truly a part of our family and any dog that comes to our home gets treated as an extended family member. My ten-year-old son inherited my love for animals. He loves taking care of dogs and has dreamed of having a dog care/boarding business so will be helping take care of our 4-legged friends. We have experience administering meds. Having trained puppies, we're also experienced with crate/potty training and teaching basic commands. Pet care is already a part of our daily life- our doodle comes to our bed and wakes us up for his first potty break every morning and that starts our morning routine. My husband and I work from home, so we are extremely flexible with our schedules. Very adaptable to any bathroom/play/walking schedules your pets may have. We have a large fenced yard with lots of fluffy grass for dogs to run around and play in. We love to go on family walks along the lake in the evenings.
“Stephanie was a new experience with several dogs in the home. Cuddy was a little shy but warmed up to them and Stephenie's family. Cuddy was happy to see her each morning - learning a new routine. We will definitely return when in Arizona and in need of a Rover.”

About: I’ve had many pets o er the years of all kinds but dogs are my favorite. Love fur babies! I also love to walk so best of both worlds!

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life! I have professional experience with dogs, cats, horses, fish, rodents, and birds. I fostered for the Big Fluffy Dog Rescue based out of Tennessee when I lived in Chicago including long term foster care and transport! I have taken care of puppies, seniors, and all the in between. I believe that animals have this unique energy and pure understanding of the world that can make a persons life so much better. I can do basic training, learned animal safety skills, and oral medicine administration. I am happy to match your pets unique energy whether that’s laying down and relaxing for a chill afternoon or running around outdoors for some fun high energy playtime! I’ll always take to time to get to know your fur baby and tailor their care to them :) I currently work mornings, typically 4am-10am. I live with my partner so when I’m out at work in the morning your pet will still have a companion and someone to take them outside or just hang out around! When I get home from work it’s playtime, I love to interact with animals and find their energy fun and exciting and so sweet! We will absolutely tailor your experience to your pet, and we know they all come with their own special and unique personalities and quirks.

I have a fenced in yard for potty breaks and typically take walks throughout the day around a pond by my house! Walks can last as long as you or your pet prefer, but typically I aim for 30-45 minutes. I typically walk during the cooler parts of the day, and will bring water if it’s over 100°out. If the service takes place out of your home I will walk within the neighborhood if possible and stick to shady areas to keep your pet cool and happy! I want you to feel assured that your pet is safe and happy with me and love to snap pics along my route! I apologize if you hear me talking in my squeaky pet voice to your baby in any videos I send, haha!

“I can’t begin to explain how nice it is to have found a dog sitter I trust. Kelly was professional and adhered to all of my specific requirements I have for my pups- she was communicative (big need for me) and safe. I sometimes have a stray dogs in the neighborhood and need her to stay alert and go in the opposite direction or even pick up my dog if safety becomes an issue. She alerted me of the stray and prioritized my dog’s safety. Amazing!”

About: I have loved dogs since I was a kid, and couldn’t imagine my life without them! I now have a 3 month old mini wiener dog that I love like a human. I typically check on my own little guy on my lunch break, but I’m free to check in or walk on weekends and evenings! Weekend morning walks are my favorite, especially in this Arizona heat! I do not board in my own home at the moment, but will follow any instructions given to be sure your pet is taken care of!
About: I've been taking care of animals (dogs, cats, and reptiles) since I was 6. I have experience with teaching basic commands (sit, shake, etc), and basic grooming. I'm currently working from home and I only work 4 days a week so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur baby. There's a futon in my office that the dogs are welcome to nap on while I'm working and I take frequent breaks for play time. I live in a ground floor townhouse with a private patio that has a dog door. I'm located in a quiet neighborhood that's perfect for walks but if your dog has extra energy to burn I'm always happy to go to the dog park. I believe that our pets are our family and I'd treat your fur baby like a member of the family. I currently have one medium energy medium size dog that's always happy to make new friends. I also have some reptiles in enclosures around my living room.
About: I have had a dog since I was a child and have cared for all types of dogs, from a mini dachshund to a great dane mix. I have experience with shelters dogs, dogs with anxiety, and service dogs. I currently work from home and do not have a set schedule. I do have family dinners sunday nights and am typically gone around 4 hours but otherwise, I am typically only gone an hour or so every few days. I live in an apartment but love taking the dogs out on long walks every few hours. I have a retired service dog who will keep your dog company.
“Kristen is wonderful! She went out of her way to come meet my dog before ever taking on/accepting being a dog walker. She is now my go-to dog walker and I can’t imagine leaving him in anyone else’s hands! She’s very communicative and professional.”
About: I have had 5 cats over my whole life, since age 7 - Experience (chronological) of 7 months in an animal shelter volunteering (halted due to an emergency move, then the facility changed to S&N / vaccination services exclusively), 3 months full time in a pet resort, and 2 months professionally & full time in another animal shelter. I have more experience/specific knowledge when it comes to cats and their behaviors, but I am also comfortable and have had experience with dogs (doggy daycare, individual playtimes, walks, as well as feedings!) Cleaning & sanitation was also a major factor in safety when working with animals. I find individual/localized care is more fitting for my life, as I am discovering furthering limits with conditions of mine. Care for any of our little friends is my forte, and I would love to bring the knowledge & experience I have to your loved ones when someone is needed! I look forward to all the lives I may come across ❤️ 🫶 • 😸 🐶 🐹 🦜 🦎 • 🫶 As for my own cats; I will always make sure mine has their needs met first, and ensure they will be in good hands with my spouse if I happen to stay a night/several hours somewhere. They have 24/7 access to filtered water, 3-4 separate feeding times with a real meat & kibble mix (warmed meal,) and at least 15 minutes of full undivided attention playtime a day (doesn’t count the hours of loving on them!) Cat litter boxes are sifted daily, often twice when I can. Litter replacement every 2 weeks, Full washes every month! Whatever is asked for & beyond (unless asked otherwise!). Supervision is vital to how I care for animals, and will always be a top priority especially when it comes to outdoors. Routines and schedules are important to me as well and never skipped.

“Very caring and attentive family with kids that were kind to our dog. House is safe for any dog. Sergio and Bethany were also very accommodating to the specific feeding instructions we provided.”
“Brooke and her family are amazing! They take amazing care of my Izzy and I swear she gets so excited when we are close to their house because she knows it will be a great time. If you book with Brooke and her family you will find a sitter that you will want to use anytime you need one!”
“Kaitlin is always so great with our old dogs! She gladly took on last minute care need changes with our older shih tzu. We always feel so comforted knowing our dogs are in her care!”
“Honestly couldn’t have asked for better dog sitters! They were great with communication and sending loads of updates on my pups as I was out of state getting married. They played a bunch with Bendu who is a very active and pet Sandy who only wants love. I can’t say enough positive things! They are amazing ❤️”
“Kaitlyn is an amazing sitter! My dog is always excited to see her and her family, and always comes home happy, healthy, and well cared for. Kaitlyn is responsive, punctual, and a pleasure to work with. I always feel at ease knowing Nyla is in great hands!”
“Jerron is absolutely FANTASTIC!! Very attentive, caring, loving, and goes above and beyond!!! He got to know our fur baby and loved on him the way he needed. Kept us updated with plenty of pictures and videos. Doesn't keep a lot of dogs at once. Definitely will book again. A+++++++”
“This was my second time having them watch my dog, and they were just as great as the first. Their communication is amazing — even with other dogs booked, she kept me in the loop the whole time and made sure I felt totally comfortable. My dog came home happy and relaxed again. I really trust them and will definitely keep booking with them.”
“Outstanding experience boarding our dog with Christina. She was extremely conscientious and genuinely caring, and it really showed in her frequent updates and photos. Will use her in the future for sure.”
“It was my dog’s first time away from home. He was well taken care of, and had plenty of fun there. Veronica regularly kept me updated regarding his day and his diet, she was extremely patience with my dog and taught him a few new things. Will book again.”
“Never have I had my dog love someone like Marina. She knows how to work with dogs and turn them into sweethearts. I have tried so many different sitters and nobody compares to Marina. She put me at ease all week by sending me videos and giving me updates about my Cassie. Her yard is just incredible with lots of trees, shade, and grass for the dogs to play. She's the best and deserves 6 stars not 5. Thank you again.”
“Wesley, Alison, and Hazel took such wonderful care of Coal while we were away for the weekend! It was clear from the updates and photos that he was happy, comfortable, and treated like part of the family. They even introduced him to the pool, which was such a fun experience for him! Hazel was a great companion, and Coal seemed to have a blast spending time with her. We truly appreciated the love, attention, and care they gave him and would absolutely trust them with Coal again. Highly recommend!”
“My husband and I had to find a baby sitter for a day because we had a day-long event and wanted our pups taken care of since we would be out for so long. I found Huaqing and her profile checked all of our boxes. We have a 3 year old Pomeranian and a 4 month old Rottweiler, and she took the greatest care of them! She sent us so many pictures throughout the day of their walk breaks and them playing, and it gave me such relief to know our babies were having a great time! When we picked them up they slept right away because I know they had a blast and saw/ sniffed so many new things. Huaqing even packed us a bag of treats and a kind note talking about her day with the doggies. I would recommend her to anyone because I could tell she really does care about pets and their well- being. Thank you again a million time Huaqing!!”
“Maritza was wonderful and gave me daily updates and photos of Otis. Her two young daughters were also pictured with Otis and they were loving towards him. Otis appeared content and happy. I would definitely recommend Maritza as a loving and caring pet sitter. I will consider her as my first choice in the future.”
“Our pups enjoyed their time with Nichole and came home happy and tired! It was a pleasure to meet and work with Nichole- a true professional and kind human being- we can’t wait to book with her again, in the future!”
About: Hi! I’m Patience ! With over 10 years of experience caring for pets—ranging from energetic puppies to senior cats—I treat every pet like part of my family. As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets need tailored care to feel comfortable while you're away. A typical day in my care includes a morning walk, plenty of play sessions with chew toys, and quiet cuddles in the evening. For seniors, I focus on gentle, short walks and ensuring they have soft bedding and a calm environment. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will have company throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, allowing for frequent potty breaks every 2–3 hours and mid-day play sessions. I usually take a longer walk in the late afternoon to help them burn off energy before dinner. Your pet's safety is my top priority. I require a meet-and-greet to ensure we are a perfect match. I only communicate through Rover for your security and mine. I am highly observant of behavior, ensuring pets are never put in stressful situations and that their environment is secure.
