“Jennifer gave us updates regularly about how our pup was doing. She was very responsive and flexible with pick up and drop off times. Our dog had a great visit with her. Thanks !”
“Emmeline was an amazing sitter. She watched my dog chico who has many quirks and was able to handle them all without any issues. She sent me tons of photos during the sit which I loved. We definitely want to use her in the future.”
“I left my dog for a week with Tracey. I was so nervous because he has separation anxiety and I’ve never spend a night away from him. Tracey was so good to him and was sending pictures and videos daily. He got just as much of a vacation as we did. He loved playing at Tracey’s farm!”
“I cannot recommend Steven enough! My dog is quite skittish with strangers and has a very specific routine at home, so I was nervous about boarding. Steven was incredibly understanding and listened to all my concerns, but what impressed me most was how he prioritized reading her body language over just following my instructions blindly. He understood that she might behave differently in a new environment and adapted brilliantly. Despite the challenges of a different household dynamic—managing a 'grazer' around his own dog and mirroring our busy family routine—he made her feel right at home. By the first night, she was eating, playing, and even sleeping in her crate! If you want a sitter who truly understands dog psychology and provides personalized care, Steven is the one.”
“Awesome! Thank you Allison & Family for taking care of our Angel. Highly recommend and great with dogs. Great service and very friendly! Your Awesome and thank you for all that you do!”
“Celia is a true dog lover. She took care of my sweet Chihuahua named Joy with love and care. It felt like I’m sending my baby to vacation spa. Celia communicate with me every day, twice a day and sent me pictures to reassure me of the well-being of my joy. I’m very happy and grateful to find such a great dog sitter. I recommend Celia with all my heart she really gave me a piece of mind while I was away.”
“This was our first time booking on Rover and Stephanie made it such a breeze! I’m an anxious dog mom but she was great with our puppy and providing updates anytime I checked in! Mazapán loved her time with Stephanie and definitely would rebook with her in the future!”
“We love Cyndi and so does Reecie & Khaleesi! Cyndi went above and beyond and settled our fears with leaving our special needs weenie dog behind in someone else’s care. Amazing!”
“Lauren and her family looked after Scampi as their own. He was relaxed and seemed too relaxed to come home. He was not in a hurry! I will recommend Lauren and with past experiences I will give her A+! Thanks again Lauren.”
“Jennifer is amazing. This is the second time she has watched my dog. She treats her with so much love and affection. She also administers her medication and helped clean around her eyes for me. She sends pictures and videos to update you during the visit. She will now become my go to person if my dog ever needs a dog sitter. Thank you so much 😊”
“Alessandra was so great! I was super nervous using this app for the first time, but feel truly lucky and blessed having found Alessandra! Upon meeting her, I was super comfortable and I felt as though I was leaving my dog in the care of a good friend or trusted family member. She was very attentive and communicative, I appreciated all the updates and photos while I was away. I have nothing but good things to say, and absolutely recommend her! She will def be my go-to dog sitter! She’s the best!”
“We recently hired Margerita to take care of our fur baby while we were away. We couldn't be more pleased with the experience. Margerita was professional, attentive, and genuinely caring towards our pet. She always updated us with pictures and videos whenever I asked her. It was very easy to communicate with her throughout the time she had our pet. It was really sweet of her to pack some treats in the bag when we picked him up. I can totally see that my pet was missing his two friends he made while living with her. I will definitely recommend her and will hire in future if needed.”
“We had a great experience with Taylor and Brian taking care of our dog, Kellie. Taylor’s background in a veterinary clinic made us feel very confident in her care. She clearly loves dogs and has a lot of experience, especially with fostering. Caring for animals is a natural calling for her. Kellie was happy and well taken care of. We will definitely be using them again for Kellie in the future!”
“Morgan was absolutely amazing with our dog, Winston! From the moment we picked him up, he looked happy, healthy, and so well cared for. It was clear that Morgan and her family treated him with genuine love and kindness, and that gave us so much peace of mind. She went above and beyond by sending beautiful pictures and even thoughtful gifts home with Winston—the frame, photos, and toys were such a sweet surprise and truly meant a lot to us. You can tell Morgan is a true animal lover who cares deeply about the pets she watches. We are incredibly grateful for the attention, warmth, and exceptional care she provided. We will absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”

“Chelsea was very responsive and sent wonderful pictures and videos. Our cat, which warms up to no one. Feel completely in with Chelsea. I highly recommend her ace will be reaching out again when future needs arise”
“I can't recommend Cyndi enough! She took care of my cat for three weeks and did an amazing job. Cyndi kept me updated with cute pics and messages, and my cat was super happy in her care. She's the best!”
About: I used to cat sit and house sit for my sister constantly when I lived in North Dakota. She had two beautiful babies one boy named Biscuit and a spunky girl named Gravy. I never had cats of my own growing up because my mom was allergic but I am such an animal lover all around and bring a calm peaceful energy with me.
“I was very happy with Leslie’s service!! She’s so kind and my boys were well cared for. All things that I asked her to do were completed as expected. I will absolutely use her services again :)”
About: I’ve cared for cats for 30 years and understand that each one has their own unique personality. I’m calm, patient, and respectful of their space, whether they’re social and playful or more shy and independent. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, litter box cleaning, playtime, and giving cats the attention they want (and space when they don’t). I also have cats of my own, so I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for them. I aim to create a calm, safe environment while you’re away.
About: I was raised around cats. I have experienced with sweet kitties and ones that can get a little frisky and protective. I am not afraid to get scraped or to clean a litter box. I just want to help pet parents with anything they need.
“Margerita was great! She is clearly an animal lover! She was on time, took clear pictures of my two senior boys when they ate, and cleaned the cat box just like I requested (it fills up too fast to skip it, because kidney disease). She spent time hanging out so they got the human interaction that these two social cats crave. She has a very friendly and polite demeanor, and a flexible schedule that made it easy to come by at the times I needed her. I would hire her again!”
About: I have always had cats in my life. Caring for my now past Tigger who was 22 years old, through his life he faced a lot of medical problems. I helped give him medication, IV drips, groom matted fur comfortably etc. I also grew up raising 3 litters of kittens. I now have only one cat who came with me from Ohio she is a 2 year old calico named Marciline who loves adventure. When meeting any new animal it's important to take it slow and give space to learn about them. Their comfort levels of engagement as well as needs, ensuring they feel safe, secure and respected. I especially think this is true for kitties.
“MK took great care of my guinea pigs while I went away on a weekend vacation!! It was so great knowing that I didn't have to worry about pet care while away. It's even more great that there are people willing to care for other animals outside of the usual cat/dog - highly recommend this sitter!!”

About: I bring a unique blend of veterinary medicine experience and hands-on foster work into every pet I care for. I’ve worked in veterinary settings and have a strong understanding of animal health, behavior, and stress signals, which allows me to provide safe, attentive, and low-stress care. In addition to my vet med background, I actively foster dogs through local shelters, including those needing extra support, structure, or decompression outside of the shelter environment.

Other than that, if you provide a crate, I will gladly follow your lead with such equipment.

About: I love dogs and always have since I was little which is why when I got my very first dog I had to name her molly. Having had her for 12 years makes me want to love on dogs more. It’ll be a flexible way of making extra cash for my kids and providing a good life for them while also teaching them responsibility and what it means to help out others.

My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, and accommodating any additional requests to ensure pets are comfortable, safe, and well cared for while in my care. I am currently unemployed finishing school. I am available anytime or day to care and love your pets! Free weekends as well anytime or day! For in home care, I live in a duplex home but with my own back yard. My neighbors are very respectful and reasonable, they are aware of my care hustle. My duplex neighbor has no pets but my other neighbor has a frenchie that is free at time in the front but well trained and not aggressive to other pets or people. Other than that fact, my home is open area for all pets with their needs met. I do have small children.
About: I bring a unique blend of veterinary medicine experience and hands-on foster work into every pet I care for. I’ve worked in veterinary settings and have a strong understanding of animal health, behavior, and stress signals, which allows me to provide safe, attentive, and low-stress care. In addition to my vet med background, I actively foster dogs through local shelters, including those needing extra support, structure, or decompression outside of the shelter environment. I’m experienced with a wide range of temperaments—from high-energy dogs to more sensitive or anxious pets—and I prioritize patience, consistency, and positive interactions. Whether your pet needs a calm, structured environment, help maintaining routines, or just extra attention while you’re away, I treat every animal like they’re my own. My goal is to provide reliable, informed care you can feel confident in.
About: I've always loved taking care of animals. When I was little I had big plans of having a shelter for dogs, cats and horses. I had even planned out the cost. Two neighborhood cats took shelter in our home and garage had three litters with us, that had further sparked my young passion for pet care. Later in life I had taken care of neighbors and families pets. I also worked with and assisted a woman with a dog grooming service (and the occasional cat) which taught me a lot more about animal temperament and handling. I adore animals and would be honored to give your fuzzy friends my best care! I work part time at TJ Max I get my work schedule a week ahead and normally im scheduled for 1 to 2 days for 4 hour shifts. If I were to pet sit for you I would only need be away for 5 hours at a time if I'm shecduled (considering drive time). I am starting school this fall working toward becoming a nurse, so being able to work with animals in the meantime is a blessing. Through the week I care for my cat and my aunts dog. my kitty gets soup time nightly (wet food) and my aunts dog takes two walks a day. In my experience every animal has their own routine they need to feel comfortable, and I am happy to learn and apply it to give the best care possible!
About: I am looking forward to caring for your pets! I grew up with very big dogs, German shepherds, Cane Corso, and Pitbulls, so I know how to properly give them the care they need. I am also great with small dogs and cats. The past couple years I have house sat and taken dogs on walks for many family members, I am now ready to offer my services to you 😊 I currently work from home so I have lots of time to give your pet the attention they need! Whether that is a long walk or pets inside I will always be sure to communicate effectively, send you updates and photos. I will be mindful and focused on your pet at all times.
About: I am a retiree that has always had pets in my life. I enjoy spending time with pets and have a great personality that they all love. I have been recently pet sitting for friends and family and I am now ready to venture out and help others. I have a flexible schedule and will treat your pet the way you would treat them. Being a retiree also allows me to be very flexible on drop in times to do pet visit while you are away. I am dependable and punctual. I have a small 5 pound Chihuahua named Midnite, she loves to travel with me and make new furry friends. We both like to enjoy life and have fun. She's an easy going lady like me and we are excited to start pet sitting. We look forward to meeting you.
About: I’m a dedicated dog lover with hands on experience caring for friends’ and family dogs, as well as my own, using positive reinforcement at home. On walks, I focus on gentle, calm structure, making sure gear fits comfortably, reinforcing polite leash manners, and (if you’d like) practicing simple cues like “sit,” “wait,” and “leave it.” I’m patient with excited dogs and extra gentle with nervous pups, always prioritizing safety and giving plenty of space from other dogs and people when needed. Dogs who need extra space on leash are welcome, I’m comfortable with mild–moderate reactivity and I work at the dog’s comfort level using distance, calm handling, and positive reinforcement. You’ll get photo updates + a quick walk recap each visit, and meet & greets are always welcome. I’m available for dog walks Monday through Saturday, with flexible time blocks from morning to evening (6am–10pm). Sundays are my off day. I’m happy to work with one-time walks, weekly routines, and recurring midday potty breaks—whatever keeps your pup happiest and most consistent. Safety comes first on every walk. I double-check harness/collar fit, use secure leash handling, and stay alert to surroundings. I avoid on-leash greetings unless you request them, give dogs space from triggers, and keep walks calm and positive. I’ll follow your routine closely and send photo updates each visit.

“Jennifer gave us updates regularly about how our pup was doing. She was very responsive and flexible with pick up and drop off times. Our dog had a great visit with her. Thanks !”
“I left my dog for a week with Tracey. I was so nervous because he has separation anxiety and I’ve never spend a night away from him. Tracey was so good to him and was sending pictures and videos daily. He got just as much of a vacation as we did. He loved playing at Tracey’s farm!”
“I cannot recommend Steven enough! My dog is quite skittish with strangers and has a very specific routine at home, so I was nervous about boarding. Steven was incredibly understanding and listened to all my concerns, but what impressed me most was how he prioritized reading her body language over just following my instructions blindly. He understood that she might behave differently in a new environment and adapted brilliantly. Despite the challenges of a different household dynamic—managing a 'grazer' around his own dog and mirroring our busy family routine—he made her feel right at home. By the first night, she was eating, playing, and even sleeping in her crate! If you want a sitter who truly understands dog psychology and provides personalized care, Steven is the one.”
“This was our first time booking on Rover and Stephanie made it such a breeze! I’m an anxious dog mom but she was great with our puppy and providing updates anytime I checked in! Mazapán loved her time with Stephanie and definitely would rebook with her in the future!”
“Lauren and her family looked after Scampi as their own. He was relaxed and seemed too relaxed to come home. He was not in a hurry! I will recommend Lauren and with past experiences I will give her A+! Thanks again Lauren.”
“Alessandra was so great! I was super nervous using this app for the first time, but feel truly lucky and blessed having found Alessandra! Upon meeting her, I was super comfortable and I felt as though I was leaving my dog in the care of a good friend or trusted family member. She was very attentive and communicative, I appreciated all the updates and photos while I was away. I have nothing but good things to say, and absolutely recommend her! She will def be my go-to dog sitter! She’s the best!”
“We had a great experience with Taylor and Brian taking care of our dog, Kellie. Taylor’s background in a veterinary clinic made us feel very confident in her care. She clearly loves dogs and has a lot of experience, especially with fostering. Caring for animals is a natural calling for her. Kellie was happy and well taken care of. We will definitely be using them again for Kellie in the future!”
“Morgan was absolutely amazing with our dog, Winston! From the moment we picked him up, he looked happy, healthy, and so well cared for. It was clear that Morgan and her family treated him with genuine love and kindness, and that gave us so much peace of mind. She went above and beyond by sending beautiful pictures and even thoughtful gifts home with Winston—the frame, photos, and toys were such a sweet surprise and truly meant a lot to us. You can tell Morgan is a true animal lover who cares deeply about the pets she watches. We are incredibly grateful for the attention, warmth, and exceptional care she provided. We will absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”

“Nestor was able to accommodate opal when we were leaving town last minute. He sent us photos of her and we knew she was happy with him because she kept looking back at him when we picked her up. We are glad she was able to stay with someone who clearly bonded with her!”
About: Pet Care is important! I can help with your pets needs as your away from home whether on vacation or at work for long hours,I can stop by to help! I add more water & food, play/entertain, take cat outside for an outdoor break, or take your dog on W-A-L-Ks. I offer drop ins / dog walks during the week and overnight stay from Fri-Mon. I provided pet care services for over 10 years and met incredible pets ranging from: your traditional pets(dogs,cats,fish), exotic pets( Asian water monitor Lizard, birds), farm animals (bunnies, chickens, etc.) As a dedicated pet sitter, my daily and weekly routine revolves around ensuring the well-being and happiness of the pets under my care. Here's an overview of how pet care fits into my schedule: Daily Routine: Morning Check-ins: I start the day by visiting each pet on time.This includes feeding, providing fresh water, and spending quality time with them for play and companionship. Midday Breaks: For clients who prefer midday check-ins, I make sure to visit again to offer bathroom breaks, playtime, and any necessary medications. Afternoon Activities: In the afternoon, I engage pets in activities suitable for their energy levels, whether it's a walk, interactive play, or simply some cuddle time. Evening Check-ins: The evening routine involves another round of feeding, ensuring their comfort, and spending time with them before bedtime. 1.Dedicated Pet Space: Pets have access to a dedicated and comfortable space in my home, ensuring they have their own area to relax, sleep, and play. This space is designed to make them feel secure and at home. Dogs in my care will also have the opportunity to go outside every hour for approximately 30 minutes, where they can enjoy the fresh air and outdoor environment. During this time, they will be closely monitored to ensure their safety and well-being. 2.Regular Exercise: Pets staying with me enjoy regular exercise routines, including walks, playtime, and access to a secure outdoor area. 3.Social Interaction: Pets are not only included in my daily activities but also have social time with the residents of the home, including my own friendly dogs. My four dogs, spanning different ages, are consistently supervised during play sessions to ensure a safe and enjoyable environment. 4.Feeding Schedule: I maintain a consistent feeding schedule based on the pet's dietary needs and preferences, following any specific instructions provided by the owner. 5.Grooming and Hygiene: Basic grooming activities such as brushing are included in the care routine. Please note that nail trimming is not offered. However, I do provide a deep clean wash and dry for an additional $15 charge, ensuring your pet receives a thorough grooming experience. 6.Health Monitoring: I pay close attention to the pet's health and behavior, promptly addressing any concerns and providing necessary medications or veterinary care.
“Ana was amazing with my two pups! First time leaving my girls with someone else and also first time they’re away from home for the night. Ana made this process so easy! She was sending videos and lots of pictures. I will definitely use her in the future.”
About: I have always been a dog lover as well as a dog owner. I am outgoing, responsible, patient and affectionate. I make sure I am caring for each dog properly for their needs and wants. I am able to exercise with the dogs and take them out frequently for potty breaks. I also now have 2 large breeds of my own and it has been a mostly fun and rewarding experience. They help me with my mental health and physical health. My family and I have so much fun dog boarding and I find it fulfilling to work as a dog sitter. Maybe I'll open up a unique pet services business one day 🙏🏾🤗🫶🏾 Pet care fits into my schedule when I am not working a full-time job. As I stated, I have 2 dogs of my own and spend a lot of time training them and taking care of their physical needs. In my own home and in a clients home I will care for your pets as if they were my own and follow the guidelines and notes that are given to me. I appreciate notes and advice from owners.
“Rana and David have been great taking care of my dog Luna a couple of times for an extended period of time. I can tell Luna enjoys her stay because she goes back happily. Very good job communicating and sending pictures. Thanks!”
About: I have been taking care of animals my entire life. I was raised around animals and treat them all like they are my own. I have experience with puppies, dog walking, and managing multiple dogs at one time. I currently work full time at a school but I like to take care of animals when I am free. I have a lot of time off and my weekend is open for any fur baby that needs me. I think trust is important when it comes to animals. Animals need to smell you first to get to know you. I always let an animal smell my hand and then I’ll ease into petting them once I can tell from body language if they want me to.
About: I've taken care dogs and cats for several years. I am committed to ensure that your pets receive the same love and care that my own pets receive. I have a lot of experience with long hair pets, special diets, etc. I do work Monday through Friday until about 5pm. I normally am able to work from home about twice a week. I come home for lunch and I am home on weekends! I am available to board pets all week, just during three days out of the week I might be at work for 3-4 hours at a time !! I have 3 cats of my own, but I know the dilemma of having pets meet different animals, so we have a separate area for our cats if needed when boarding your babies. We also have a sweet dog who is extremely friendly with both dogs and cats! We have two parks nearby that we walk to daily, we have a fenced yard, cat trees, a huge cat shelf, dog crates, and plenty of toys for your babies. We have a fenced yard and two huge parks that are walking distance. We provide our pets with the best quality of life that we can and we promise to do the same for your babies.
“My dog had her first overnight stay and it went well! My dog is usually a bit on the anxious side and was made absolutely comfortable. Very happy with the care my dog received. Highly recommend!”
