“We were thrilled with the love and attention that our pup, Abby received from Michelle and her boys. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. Will definitely use her services again!”
“Kelly is an amazing sitter! My dog Dumpling immediately felt right at home with her and her family. She is considerate and attentive and I felt secure during our vacation knowing that Dumpling was cared for and loved. My dog is a cuddlebug and she had the opportunity to cuddle to her heart’s content. ❤️ I will definitely book with Kelly again!”
“Sam had such a great time at Melodie's house! She sent me pictures and videos of him having a blast while I was gone. He was so happy and wore out when I picked him up! Drop off and pick up was super easy and communication was excellent. Would definitely book Melodie again next time!”
“Claudia is a true dog whisperer! Our elderly, picky, skittish, timid chiweenie ate without issue and even began playing with the other dogs there. Claudia sent us regular updates and photos. And Paris, who is afraid of everyone, warmed up to her right away. We have already scheduled our next visits!!”
“From the moment we dropped off Scorch, Chuck was friendly and welcoming. Communication throughout was excellent, with regular updates that gave us peace of mind while we were away. We felt confident leaving Scorch in such a clean and secure environment. Scorch came home happy and well taken care of, which really says it all. We'll definitely be using Chuck's services again!”
“Sherrie was knowledgeable, kind and patient with Buddy. She kept us updated with text and pictures during Buddy's stay and made Buddy comfortable in her home. Buddy has new doggy and human friends which he will be happy to visit again.”
“We picked up our guy today after being gone for 8 days. First time leaving him anywhere so we were nervous. Chris and Julia were amazing. They were so nice and made us feel comfortable. They sent us daily updates and we could see he was enjoying himself and getting along with their dog. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was in good hands. They’ll definitely be our go to sitters in the future.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an amazing experience with Deanna as our dog boarder! She kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, making us feel at ease while we were away. Communication was top-notch, and her friendly demeanor made everything even better. Our dog, Boise, had a great time playing with her dog and her kids, which we know made his stay extra special. Highly recommend Deanna for anyone looking for a caring and attentive dog boarder!”
“I can’t rave enough about Andria, Jonathan and family! They accepted my request on short notice and allowed me the opportunity to bring Denim and Zara over for a meet and greet. I received daily updates and photos “every” morning on my girls and they were treated like family. Andria kept me well informed on my oldest and ensured she had her meds as required. If you’re looking for an excellent sitter and an amazing family to care for your fur babies, I highly recommend Andria and Jonathan. I will definitely re-book over and over!!!”
“After having very bad luck with 4 previous dog sitters, we decided to finally give Rover a try and I'm so glad we did. Lilly came through at the very last minute and even agreed to give Frankie a ride home at the end of his boarding. She sent us pics and videos of her dog Rory and Frankie playing and having a great time. Her communication and follow through was on point. It's so refreshing to know your pup is in great hands while you're traveling, giving you one less thing to worry about. We no longer have to stress before our next vacation about our dog being cared for. Highly recommend Lilly!”
“Mandy and her family are just the sweetest. They were extremely accommodating and very patient with Rosie. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Rosie was in good hands. I would not hesitate to book with Mandy again.”
“Christina was on time, to and from. Actually, she arrived earlier than scheduled, which helped out even more. She ensured communications, and updates, were maintained. The photos sent by her all shown my Snowy Bella was in safe hands. I forgot a food item, but Christina had no problem going out of her way to get it for her. Having a nice sizeable yard is a huge plus, which we all know. So that was perfect for my Snowy Bella because she is super energetic. Snowy returned home with an incredible smile. Christina's expertise and handling with dogs is for sure recommended by me. As I've informed her, she will be requested in the near future for my Snowy!”
“Kimberly was amazing! She welcomed us into her home at drop off and was so patient with this anxious pet mama. Marty had a great time and we got lots of pictures and updates. Would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Sonia was the best! I really appreciated the photos and videos, I could see that Tina was happy and wagging her tail 🤣 I loved that Tina got to hang out with Chuy, he’s adorable. Everything was great, I will 100% keep booking with Sonia.”
“Nick, Veronica, and the boys are the best… we had to leave our girl for a whole month… not easy to do. They were wonderful step in pet parents for Maggie. Thanks again!!!!”
“I loved receiving the updates about my Lily dog. His home is very well maintained and I can tell Lily was very well cared and attended to. So much better than putting her up at Petsmart. Lily and I will be looking forward to continue our pet sitting relationship with Sean!”
“Kylea and her family are absolutely amazing!! I was nervous to leave my cat as this was the first time leaving him with someone and I can’t say enough great things about her!! She sent pictures and updates all the time which calmed my nerves! I will refer her to anyone who asks! Thank you Kylea!!”

“We are so grateful for the wonderful care Rylee gave our dogs while we were away. She was incredibly kind, reliable, always on time, and communicated with us every step of the way. The pictures and updates she sent meant so much to us and gave us complete peace of mind knowing our pups were happy and well cared for. It's clear she genuinely loves animals, and we felt completely comfortable trusting her with our dogs. We wouldn't hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter!”
“Kimberly did a wonderful job! She sent pictures, walked the dogs, and when we came home I could tell that all the food and water had been looked after! I especially appreciated her taking the time to play with the dogs too! Definitely will hire her again!”
“Dina was very reliable, caring and an effective communicator before, during and after 6-day check ins with my cat. I had full confidence in her during that time period (which included admin of medication) that my cat was well cared for. I will use Dina’s services for any future need.”
“Annabella was amazing! She went above and beyond to care for our cat Loki while we were on vacation. The night we left, our fire alarms became defective and kept setting off until our maintenance team could come fix them the next day. Annabella stayed extra long during her visit to reassure Loki and comfort him. Our litter robot also had a connection issue, and she was able to reset it & set up an emergency litter box I had shipped to the home. The fire alarm situation caused me a lot of anxiety at the beginning of the trip, but the daily updates and photos from Annabella made me feel so much better and we were able to thoroughly enjoy the rest of our trip, knowing our boy was in good hands! We would definitely rebook with her on future trips. :)”
“This was our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous. But Dani did a great job taking care of our cats. She even won over the one who is usually too scared to come out from under the bed!”
About: I have had the privilege of having cats for most of my life. I currently have two cats who are sisters. I am familiar with cat behaviors and would love to care for your cat.

“Laura took care of my Bruce. He is my cat that I have since he was 10 years old. She was a great communicator on her drop and visit send me pictures and text messages while she was with Bruce. When I got home, he was very happy and it seemed like everything went smoothly. We had a meeting greet before everything went well trip.”
“Kaleena is an amazing sitter and we are so blessed to have found her. My dog can be quite a challenge and requires a lot of extra time and patience to warm up to strangers. Kaleena completely understood his boundaries, never rushed him, and used so much love and patience to earn his trust. By the end, they became friends. It means the world to find someone who treats my Toby with love and patience. Thank you for winning his heart!”

“This was my first time using a service like this and Stevie was so great to work with! My shyest cat came out and got cuddles from Stevie which says a lot! We felt completely at ease knowing she was able to be there and give our girls some loving and treats. She was so kind and understanding with a last minute change also. Highly recommend!!!!”
“I love coming back to my home feeling the same way it was when I left it. Even more so I love knowing my cats felt comfortable enough to eat their food while we were gone. Emily always makes sure to get everything done on the list I leave her, and always does everything the way I ask, which is so appreciated!! Thank you Emily!!”
“Stephanie is amazing! She watched our two cats while we were on a trip for a few days, and each day we received detailed updates with lots of photos. My cats were also making a mess while we were away, playing in the plants, litter, etc., and Stephanie was so kind to clean it up for us. Thank you for taking care of our fur babies, Stephanie! Highly recommend!”
“Shaley is amazing! She is fantastic with our 2 dogs and always sends us cute pics of them and detailed notes. Gives us peace of mind that our dogs are being taken care of so well and loved.”
About: Our family has had pets in our home for the last 20 years. We currently have one cat and two dogs, who loves having other dogs come to visit. We'll accept dogs for short stays, daycare, and boarding. We have a big backyard that allows for a lot of ball-throwing and running. Your dog will get lots of love and attention during their stay and will not be left alone. Because we work from home, your pet will get potty breaks and outdoor time whenever they want it. We love puppies and are happy to help with potty training. If you have been working with your dog on learning commands, we will continue that training while they stay with us. We'll update you throughout your pet's stay with pictures of what they've been doing. We look forward to making your pet a part of our family. Drop in visits will include feeding, play time, ball throwing, belly rubs, or whatever it is your pup enjoys. I work part time and have a very flexible schedule. I am available to do drop-ins throughout the day between 7:00 am and 8:00 pm. I will follow all instructions that are given to me and will keep your pets on any restrictions or routine that they are accustom to.
About: I have lived with and cared for animals my whole life and absolutely love and respect them and all their different personalities l. I grew up with a giant cage of birds, 5 guinea pigs and a chinchilla to now living with 2 cats and a dog. I genuinely adore animals and have been pet sitting for friends and family for years. I will go above and beyond to ensure that your fur baby feels cherished and cared for. I am also a professional photographer so I’ll be able to capture some incredible memories with your fur babies if you let me! I am currently working part time. My bartending shifts are on average no more than 6hrs, 2-3 days a week. I am also a professional photographer with sessions only lasting 1-2 hrs so I have plenty of time to give the right attention to your fur babies. I decided to rent a large house with a yard for my fur babies to run around and go outside whenever they need to. I prioritize their physical health and diligently maintain their schedules, and provide them with a balanced and nutritious diet tailored to their specific dietary requirements. I understand the importance of exercise and engage them in stimulating activities to keep their bodies strong and agile. I recognize the significance of mental and emotional well-being in pets and create a safe and comfortable space for them, complete with cozy beds, engaging toys, and hiding spots for relaxation. Regular playtime and interactive sessions help stimulate their minds and prevent boredom. Whether it's puzzle toys, training sessions, or engaging in their favorite games, I actively promote mental stimulation and social interaction.

“Kelly was fantastic with our playful boy Moose! She and her family are so sweet, plus their older pups, for keeping up with our guy. She sent many updates throughout the day and our pup came home happy and tired. Would 100% recommend and plan to have him visit again in the future.”

“Sonia is absolutely amazing — truly the best sitter I’ve ever had. She gave constant, thoughtful updates and showed so much love, care, and attention to my pup. She even accommodated me last minute, which meant the world. She exercises my dog and treats her like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands. Thank you so much, Sonia”
About: I'm a stay-at-home, homeschooling mother of four, and I have one dog (yellow lab mix) and two cats! I love animals and since we are home majority of the time, your pet will have ample love, attention, and care. MY entire downstairs is tile and we have a backyard, so puppies still needing house training would be acceptable. I'm happy to walk/run with dogs, care for cats, come to your home to do check ins, whatever you're looking for, just ask! I have taken care of animals for family, and I appreciate any details or notes you have so I can provide the very best quality of care for your individual pet. I am home majority of the day with my kids. I have young kids ages 5-11 and I homeschool, so we are home most of the time. I take our dog on a walk or run in the morning around 7am or earlier, and again in the evening if the weather is nice. I have plenty of time for loving and caring for your pet! I offer care in our home, or in yours depending on your needs. Your pet will be exercised, fed, watered, loved, played with, cleaned up after, and all around cared for and adored. I can only provide care to animals who are okay with children and other pets, to keep everyone safe from natural pet instincts to protect themselves. My children have been taught to use only gentle and loving hands with slow approach with adult supervision. In the event we need to leave the house I do require kenneling for dogs if they are known to chew/scratch. I am happy to provide pictures and updates, so that you can rest assured your pet is happy and thriving while you are away.
“Michelle was wonderful, sent us pics and very observant of our special needs pup. Charli loved playing with her pup Harley! It was so funny, Charli walked in like she’d been there a million times and really I think Harley was more excited to see me at the end of the day than pur our own dog! 😂”
“This was our first time using rover; we had Meg go just for the day to see how she would do while we hosted a party at our house. Deanna sent messages, pictures, and videos of Meg throughout her day. I was comforted and reassured she was in good hands. I loved the closeness of our houses, the ease with river booking, and the fast communication. Deanna was amazing and Meg was so happy and tired when she came home!”
About: I have been taking care of pets of all kinds my entire life. I have always had dogs and cats in our home. Currently we have a Golden Retriever, Piper, and A long Haired Siamese, Kylo, in our home. Over the last 30 years we have had 5 Golden retrievers, sometimes multiple at once, and 4 cats. Dogs and Cats give me great pleasure and are ultra important in my life. If you are a dog and cat lover then you are my kind of people. I have just recently retired and this is the perfect gig for me. They get Walked, I get walked, They Play, I play, They get loved, I get loved. I have experience with puppies, kittens, Young dogs and senior dogs. Young cats, and senior cats. I will meet the needs of your fur family and take great care. Since I am retired now, I have full availability for you and your pets. Drop-In visits, feeding, potty breaks, play time, dog walking, in-house sitting, or boarding in our home. Whatever your needs are, I am available. Give me a try. You will be very pleased. As I mentioned earlier, I have just recently retired and am a High energy completely dependable person for you and your pets. I am available at all times and days of the week. I'm perfect for this... We will develop a long term relationship so I can be there for you whenever you travel or need to be away. Your pets will get to know me and feel comfortable and won't stress when you are gone. I think it's important for pets to be in a place that they are familiar with in your home or my home. It's far better than taking them anywhere else. If friends are supposed to come over and take care of your babies, they may run over just before you get home and will not give you the care you hoped for. We know, as this has happened to us. Also, kennels are the worst. Never take them them there. I'm your guy and you will be very pleased with my service and attentiveness. Give me a try

About: *IMPORTANT SUMMER INFO* I do not walk dogs when temps are over 95 during the day. I will walk up to 100 degrees when the sun is not out (early morning or after sunset). Walks will change to drop-ins (no change in price) if temps exceed this. We are a dog loving family and welcome small to medium size dogs for doggy daycare. Pam is available for dog walking and drop-ins on weekdays. For daycare, we have 3 resident dogs who will welcome your pooch to the pack, so yours should be good with other dogs. Our backyard is fully fenced, with a pool that your pup can cool off in. **The dogs are fully supervised any time they have access to the pool.** Pam works solely from home and Joe works in ministry just two miles away. Our schedules allow us to show your fur baby a great time and all the love and attention it will need while you are away for the day. Please let us know if you have any questions about your pup's needs. We look forward to welcoming them to our pack! ~Pam & Joe Why I love dog sitting I grew up with cats but fell in love with dogs when I got my first one, Maggie, in my twenties. Maggie was a Sheltie and was my companion through a lot of life's ups and downs. In 2010, I adopted Snickers & Itty Bitty, a malkie and care-tzu. Maggie, Snickers and Itty Bitty all lived to 15 years old, but we would have loved many more years with them. We now have Toby, a small mixed breed who is 10, Lucky, a Maltipoo, who was rehomed to us, and Ginger, a cavapoo princess who we were blessed to find through a rescue. About my yard Our backyard is fully fenced and landscaped. We have a pool and your dog is welcome to swim, or cool off on the baja step, if they like. We have a grass side yard that is a designated potty area for the pups. Pam works part-time from home and Joe works just 2 miles away. While Pam is home working, our 3 resident fur babies are never far away, sometimes even sleeping on her lap or desk. We have a gate that keeps dogs from accessing the front door. Our front door and back doors both have security screens, so if we open the door they can't run out. Our back yard is fully fenced and double fenced on the one side that opens to the front yard/street.
About: As a pet owner myself, I know how stressful it can be to find someone whose schedule truly works with your pet’s needs. That’s honestly why I joined Rover. I wanted to be that reliable person for other pet owners who may feel overwhelmed trying to find the right care. I have plenty of free time, work from home and genuinely love being around animals, so your pets will get lots of attention, love, and consistency. They won’t be left feeling alone or ignored while they’re with me. I’m here to keep them company, give them plenty of affection, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy the entire time. I treat every pet like they’re my own because I know how important they are to you. I have experience with puppies, older dogs, and everything in between. My goal is to give your pets the same love and care I would want someone to give my babies. ❤️ I work from home, so I’m flexible with my schedule. I’m up at early as 5:00 and I go to bed at 11 I’ve had dogs my entire life, and they are truly part of my family. My oldest dog is 15, and I also have a puppy, so I’ve experienced caring for dogs at every stage of life. When I care for someone else’s dog, I treat them exactly how I would want someone to treat my own. I’m attentive to their needs, keep a close eye on them, and make sure they are safe, comfortable, and cared for throughout their stay. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. ❤️

About: Hi, I’m Amanda! I grew up on a farm in rural upstate New York, where caring for animals was part of everyday life. I am very comfortable handling animals with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. Because of that background, I’m calm, observant, and confident when it comes to animal care. I understand how important consistency, safety, and attention are, whether it’s feeding routines, exercise, or just spending quality time with your pet. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and treat every pet with patience, respect, and care like they’re my own. ⸻ 🐶 My Experience * Lifelong hands-on experience with farm and household animals * Comfortable with large, high-energy, or strong dogs * Experienced with shy, independent, or senior pets * Confident managing multiple animals at once * Familiar with feeding schedules, cleaning, and basic care routines ⸻ ❤️ My Care Style I focus on keeping your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions carefully and make sure your pet gets: * Fresh food and water * Exercise and/or playtime * Bathroom breaks or litter care * Attention and companionship * A clean and safe environment I’m attentive to behavior changes and will always communicate if anything seems off. ⸻ 📸 Updates & Communication You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you know your pet is safe and happy while you’re away. ⸻ 🤝 Meet & Greets I’m happy to do a Meet & Greet before booking to make sure we’re a good fit and to go over your pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions. ⸻ 🦴 Services Offered Cat sitting * Dog walking * Drop-in visits * House sitting (optional to enable now or later) ⸻ ⭐ Why Choose Me Growing up on a farm taught me responsibility, awareness, and how to read animal behavior early. I’m reliable, calm in new situations, and genuinely enjoy caring for animals—not just watching them. ⸻ 💬 Closing Line I’d love to meet you and your pet—feel free to reach out with any questions! ⸻ Optional Add-On (if true for you) * “Available for early morning, evening, and weekend care” * “Comfortable administering basic medications if instructions are provided” I offer full availability—any day, any time—and am committed to being 100% reliable. I prioritize punctuality, consistency, and clear communication, ensuring pets are cared for exactly as instructed and owners have peace of mind. I take care of pets in their own homes so they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I stick to their normal routine—feeding, cleaning, playtime, and attention—and make sure they feel safe and relaxed. I treat both the pets and the home with respect and always keep owners updated.
About: As a pet owner myself, I know how stressful it can be to find someone whose schedule truly works with your pet’s needs. That’s honestly why I joined Rover. I wanted to be that reliable person for other pet owners who may feel overwhelmed trying to find the right care. I have plenty of free time, work from home and genuinely love being around animals, so your pets will get lots of attention, love, and consistency. They won’t be left feeling alone or ignored while they’re with me. I’m here to keep them company, give them plenty of affection, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy the entire time. I treat every pet like they’re my own because I know how important they are to you. I have experience with puppies, older dogs, and everything in between. My goal is to give your pets the same love and care I would want someone to give my babies. ❤️ I work from home, so I’m flexible with my schedule. I’m up at early as 5:00 and I go to bed at 11 I’ve had dogs my entire life, and they are truly part of my family. My oldest dog is 15, and I also have a puppy, so I’ve experienced caring for dogs at every stage of life. When I care for someone else’s dog, I treat them exactly how I would want someone to treat my own. I’m attentive to their needs, keep a close eye on them, and make sure they are safe, comfortable, and cared for throughout their stay. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. ❤️
About: I used to have 3 dogs I helped take care of everyday before my family moved across the country. They were my best companions: a dachshund, yorkie, and italian greyhound chihuahua. I took care of them and countless amounts of dogs for family friends; mastiffs, white labs, black labs, and more chihuahuas. I currently am a part-time student at Arizona State, but I am free on Monday-Friday at any time, and some weekends as long as I’m informed or asked to pet-sit a week in advance. We have a small, fenced yard that I use for my own dogs that we occasionally play with them in. This is easy for me to use play time for in a clients home.

About: Returning rover sitter here! I’ve done rover for over 4 years met so many new furry friends including my soul dog in my profile pic! With Rhaegar recently passing last year I've definitely missed being around pups and am ready to help you guys out with your soul dogs! I know life can be crazy and unpredictable and sometimes your furry companion can’t be there with you so I would love to help take some stress off your shoulders with anything I can do to help ! I am a stay at home momma so I’m very flexible but also need to bring my little sidekick so I need to know that your pet is good around kids! I am very flexible with days and times just let me know a little in advance and I can definitely be there to help out! Whatever your house rules are I am more than capable of following and making sure your little one is also following while still giving them a good visit
“Emily, thanks for taking the time with Signe to ensure that her time in the park was more than entertainment and interacting with other dogs, but instead included using the park as a "comfort station." I know that made Signe's time back in the crate more comfortable for her. We also appreciate the photos you provided.”
About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for all kinds of pets, including fish, hedgehogs, hamsters, cats, and dogs of all ages, sizes and personalities! Whether it's feeding the fish, giving belly rubs, or handling high-energy pups, I'm here to give your fur (and fin!) babies the love and attention they deserve. I work from home and have Fridays and weekends available for assisting and caring for your pet! Whether you need someone to stop by for a potty break while you’re at work or out for dinner with friends, or you need help while you’re out of town, I’m available to help! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I care for your pets in their own home, where they feel secure and relaxed in their familiar environment. I follow your routines closely—whether it's mealtime, walks, or meds—and always treat your home with the utmost respect and care. You can count on me to keep things calm, clean, and pawsitively peaceful while you're away.
About: What sets me apart is the combination of genuine love for animals, hands-on experience, and attention to detail. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages – from playful puppies to wise seniors – and I understand that every pet has unique needs. I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs who may need medications, slower walks, or extra patience, and I have experience with basic puppy training, including crate training, leash manners, and potty routines. I’m also a great communicator – pet parents always know how their furry friend is doing, with regular updates and photos. Whether it’s keeping up with a high-energy pup or gently caring for an older dog, I adapt my care to fit their personality and needs. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, loved, and right at home. As a college athlete, I maintain a structured and active routine — and I make pet care a priority within that. I have plenty of downtime between classes and practices, which gives me the flexibility to schedule drop-in visits, feedings, and quality playtime with your pet. I’m highly responsible with time management and always communicate my availability clearly. If I have an upcoming game or weekend away, I let clients know in advance and only accept bookings I can fully commit to. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care whenever I’m available — and to make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for while you're away. When I care for pets in a client’s home, my focus is always on keeping their routine consistent, their environment clean, and their comfort level high. I follow all instructions closely — from feeding schedules and litter box cleaning to medication or specific quirks your cat (or dog!) may have. I respect your home like it’s my own: I keep things tidy, secure doors and windows, and always make sure your pet has fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of love and attention. I also take time to observe their behavior to make sure they’re feeling okay — especially important for shy or senior pets. If you'd like, you’ll get regular updates with photos and notes, so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. My goal is to make your absence as stress-free as possible — for both you and your pet.
