“Sarah and her daughter were wonderful!!!!! They kept us updated with pictures of our baby. She seemed happy and at ease in the pictures. We highly recommend Sarah and will refer people.”
“Our pup who is often overly shy with new dogsitters easily adjusted to Cori and Chris (her quickest transition so far as she was snoring on the couch within the first hour). They are both so welcoming, patient, and kind— we already have our second stay booked. Sophie gives her first stay two paws up!”
“Taylor and Andrew spoiled Rafi! They gave her extra treats, made sure she ate, gave her run of their home and yard, took her for walks, and gave her affection. They were good about providing updates and sent photos. Rafi was with them for 2 wks., and when I picked her up I witnessed her seek attention and affection from them, she interacted well with their dogs, and had no initial interest in my return. I recommend them and will definitely use them again. I couldn’t be more pleased. Thank you!”
About: I grew up on a farm with many animals. We have raised our girls with many pets including: chickens, bunnies, several foster and adopted dogs, and rescuing cats that would have been euthanized to live on our farm. We have 1 acre of fully fenced yard in a cozy community. We recently had to put down our sweet pit bull and are looking to opening up our homes to care for others pets at this time. We have a lot of love to give and would appreciate your consideration. I work from home so I am available all day and night excluding of course picking up kids and family activities. We have 4 daughters, 2 of which have graduated high school and in college, 1 going into high school and a 9 year old. They have all had extensive experience with many animals and been involved with agriculture in their middle and high schools. We presently have 2 cats (one of which is fully outdoor and one that comes in at night to sleep). We understand that many individuals have cats that are fully indoor and we have ample space, beds and furniture for your cat to feel comfortable. We are also BIG dog people and missing our sweet pit bull. We have a great neighborhood for taking walks, a 1 acre fully fenced yard for running and playing in. We will keep all cats indoors at all times. We will have any animals that stay with us in our home at night and have dogs go out frequently to play.
“May took very good care of our senior dog during the a holidays. She was attentive and sent us great pictures during her stay. She is usually nervous and stressed when boarding, but was happy and not anxious at all when arriving home. She went easily back to her normal routines. We are very happy with the special care provided to her and will absolutely use their services again! Thank you!”
“Leigh is absolutely the best dog sitter around! My 15-year-old dog does not like to be away from my family, but after a very stressful year, we needed a brief getaway. Leigh watched him with great care and attention and constantly updated us on how he was doing. I highly recommend her.”
“Darylee and her family were wonderful! She sent pictures to update us on how Dash was doing. It brought us much joy/peace knowing that Dash was in great hands and having a great time running around in their large fenced-in back yard and playing with the goats. :)”
“Julia kept our senior pug for nearly 2 weeks and took great care of her! She was quick to communicate, provided lots of updates and was flexible with us when we returned a day early from our trip. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”
“I liked Margaret’s confidence about having my two little poodles stay with her. Nothing was a problem so I hope she meant that and that I can board with her again!!!”
“Jenny was so great to our pup, Mozart! She was quick to respond to all our messages and sent pictures constantly so we could see how much fun he was having. Mozart also got along super well with their dog, Lucky. Would definitely use Jenny again to care for our dog. Thank you, Jenny!”
“Amazing experience. I'm so glad we found David and Jeanette. Their family home is setup perfectly for pup sitting and everyone is properly experienced with dog care. Our three dogs (aged 2-13) loved their vacation with these Rovers.”
“Stacey and Christopher were awesome! We left Goose with them for 3 days, and Stacey constantly sent pictures and updates with how he was doing and what they had been up to. Goose LOVED their backyard, and when we brought him home he was worn out for 2 days (that never happens). Stacey and Christopher both gave great feedback about Goose when we picked him up, and gave us a nice little report card for his stay with them. We will definitely request them again!”
“Ronald and his family took care of Callie. They treated her like their own. Photos were provided daily which was great because we missed her so much while we were away. They have their own dogs so that was a plus for us since Callie is still in training. She got along very well with the other dogs.”
“Hannah and her husband gave Lincoln a wonderful vacation while we traveled! It gave us peace of mind knowing he had a big backyard and comfy couch to relax in with them. I would be happy to drop him off for another staycation the next time we go anywhere!”
“If this was Airbnb, Doug and Marisol would be super hosts. The took our two chihuahua mixes while we were on vacation. We didn't have to inquire how they were doing as Marisol sent pictures every day (including funny captions). She also sent text updates that reflected they had got to know our dogs personalities. They have a good walking space so the dogs had plenty of sniff time. They came home a little chubbier than they left and very happy. We will use their resort services again!”
“Super grateful for Jasmine! She took a last minute booking for our dog over the holiday weekend so we could visit family. Communication was great, and our dog came home happy and well cared for. Will definitely use them again in the future.”
“Tyler took such good care of my puppy Yucca! Tyler was very responsive and flexible with the pick up and drop off. I will definitely book again. His place is like a pet resort!”
“I’ve used Rover in the past but let me tell you I would highly recommend Gelare E. To anyone who’s looking for someone to watch their fur babies. Never in my life had someone loved and cared for our spirit like this beautiful family. They are above a 10 plus. I would never have no one but Gelare to watch my fur babies. I can’t say enough about the love and care they have for Animals. When I say trust me I mean that from my heart. They are the best fur babies sitters in the world to me. If I could give them the world for taking care of our boy spirit! I would. They are extra extra special dog sitters. Thank you God for beautiful animal lovers like this family ❤️🥰🙏🩷😇”

“Victoria was amazing with our cat! She was prompt and came at the same time everyday to feed and play with our girl. I got tons of videos/photos, along with very detailed notes about how she was and how the visits went. I will definitely rebook with her in the future and encourage you to reach out to her for your fur babies! Thank you so so much again for everything!”
“I’m so glad I found Mariela! She’s very friendly and did everything exactly as I asked, always leaving photos after each visit. One of our cats even started to approach her instead of hiding, which is amazing! Thank you for the great service!”
“Kaitlyn - you were awesome with my cat! Great communication. Followed instructions perfectly and my cat loved having her here! Kept my place safe & locked up as she was coming and going. First time using the app & it was so easy. I felt safe leaving my baby in Kaitlyn’s care & I will absolutely rebook her for my next trip!”
“Thank you so much for your kind care and for watching my Tuna. I know she is skittish but she so loved and trusted you. You gave so much time and attention to my little cat and I so appreciate it. Thank you!!”
“This was our second time booking with Jeanine, and this time was for an entire week. That's the longest we've ever had to leave our pets alone with someone we didn't know, but Jeanine made us feel so much better about it. Right before we left we started having litter box issues with one of our cats, so we were especially nervous about what we might come home to. But Jeanine kept us updated every day and put our mind at ease. We enjoyed our vacation so much more knowing we had someone so caring and responsible looking after our pets. Thanks Jeanine!”
“Our first booking with Kylie went very well. She made friends with Marv right away, which is not an easy thing to do. She left the house and the liter box clean. We are very happy with Kylie and look forward to using her again. :)”
About: Hello! My name is Angelina and I’ve had cats my whole life! I’ve definitely seen it all from having to give insulin shots to inhalers to mood shifts from family members leaving to the service. So I’d love to say I’m well versed in the craziness of cats. I’m big on love and snacks along with if your baby needs any medications while she’s here. You can count on me! Best, Angelina Darling
About: I’m a reliable, detail‑oriented professional with over 40 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. Throughout my life, animals have always been part of my home, and I take pride in providing consistent, attentive, and loving care. I live on a fully fenced 1‑acre property in Ramona, which gives dogs plenty of safe space to relax, explore, and enjoy a calm environment. My home is ideal for pets who prefer a quieter setting with room to move. They are welcome indoors too. My husband and I have a 12-year-old retired police German Shepherd who is well-trained and gentle. He failed the academy for being too nice :) Cayman enjoys companionship and does best with friendly, well-mannered dogs. My two daughters and two granddaughters (ages 7 and 9) live with us and are all very comfortable around animals. They’ve grown up around pets and are respectful, supervised, and loving with all animals. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I’m currently available and flexible, and I’m happy to work around your schedule and your pet’s specific needs. I’m home most days, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, feeding on schedule, and plenty of attention. Please feel free to check my calendar for availability, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you have specific timing or routine requests—I do my best to accommodate. I provide care in a calm, safe, and supervised environment. My home includes a fully fenced 1‑acre property with monitored outdoor time, and a kennel available if needed. I follow all care instructions closely and focus on quality, low‑stress care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their routines and provide updates as requested.
“Daisy took wonderful care of our two cats, Leaf and Nugget, for seven days while we were away. We reached out on fairly short notice, and she was incredibly accommodating and easy to work with from the start. She was professional, reliable, and very kind throughout the entire week. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats, which gave us great peace of mind while we were traveling. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about animals and treats them as if they were her own. We couldn’t be happier with the care she provided and would absolutely recommend Daisy to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter. We look forward to having her watch Leaf and Nugget again in the future!”
About: I've taken care of family pets for more than twelve years and had owned two chihuahuas. I can bath, walk, and play with them and keep them company. I am a travel medical assistant with open availability due to it being a slow season. I like to walk to farmers markets on Saturdays. If you have a fencing yard or crate, I can let them out for walks and for play. If you need help bathing or administering any medication, I'd be more than happy to help you.
“Michelle was amazing! She was super attentive and clearly cared so much about my pets. She kept me updated and sent the cutest pictures, which made me feel really comfortable while I was away. I could tell my babies were well taken care of and happy. I would definitely hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter :)”
“Marissa was wonderful with my puppy, shes so sweet and you can really tell she takes great care of the pets she watches. She gave daily check ins and provided adorable photos. Will definitely book again!”
“Allie has been great! Scheduling was easy and my kitty loves her drop-in visits! She’s prompt, always keeps me updated, and sends cute pictures to let me know the visit is going ok!”

“My little man Brady absolutely loved his time with Lucy and Stella. Huge thanks to Taylor and Andrew I can’t say enough good things! Being able to be absent without the stress of his well being is priceless. This was our first time using Rover and couldn’t be happier. We will absolutely be back sooner than later!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Ty and Annie. They are incredibly friendly, clearly care about what they do, and communicated with us every step of the way. They were especially understanding of our dog’s anxiety and went out of their way to help him feel comfortable. We couldn’t have asked for better care.”
About: Hi! I'm new to the Rover app, but I'm not new to caring for animals. I've always had a natural connection with animals and they seem to gravitate toward me wherever I go. I’m a stay at home mom of a 3 and 5 year old so I am always home and always active and my fiance is home while I run errands. We have a decent size fenced yard where your animal can get some energy out while staying safe. I truly believe animals are family, and I care for every pet as if they were my own child. I'm highly communicative, reliable, and genuinely empathetic. I pay close attention to each pet's unique personality and needs, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, or just having a calm companion, I'll make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. That's why I'll keep you updated with plenty of photos, videos, and messages throughout each visit, so you always know how your pet is doing and can enjoy those special moments even while you're apart. If you're a busy family looking for a dependable dog walker or pet sitter who will treat your pet with patience, kindness, and lots of love, I'd be honored to help. I can't wait to meet you and your best friend! I am a mom of two girls. I have a flexible schedule and I’m willing to do whatever’s necessary to make sure your pet is taken care of. I’m a hair stylist on weekends and I love when people bring their dogs to their appointments. Rover is great way for me to play with animals, get some exercise, and make some extra income. Just message me 😊 I make sure the dog goes outside to use the bathroom . Make sure the food and water bowl is always fresh and full. Engage and play with your pet. Chill, lay down, and watch tv together. I absolutely love playing tug of war with dogs so make sure to pack that toy in their overnight bag LOL. If I were to come to your house I would let you know exactly when I enter and when I leave and give you updates on your pet .
About: Was blessed to grow up with dogs and also care for friends' and other peoples' furry family members in our community. My family has a wonderful home and property made for your doggy vacations. They can enjoy both time inside our home as well as the beautiful dog play area outside which is fully gated with coyote rollers, trees for shading, a couple sheds (one w/ AC), and fully turfed. They'll enjoy this area for playing fetch, tug of war, running around, along with just having some relaxation in the safe outdoors. Also, if they like walks, they can enjoy some of our own family walks. Since we homeschool and work from home, we are ready to provide 24 hour care while maintaining your furry family member's normal everyday routine - from when they wake up, eat, play, potty and bedtime. We love to match your normal schedule to provide them with a fun and relaxing time during their vacation at our home. Our goal is to provide a Safe, Fun, and Relaxing time for your furry family member. Whether they'll want to relax in our home or play in our beautiful and safe dog play area outside, their safety and comfort is our priority. While your furry family member is with us, they'll be treated and cared for as one of our own family members. Your furry family member gets to live life with our family as we play, do homeschool, and work all from home. We love having them in the house with us and letting them enjoy basking in the sun on the connected patio in our fully enclosed backyard, or taking them up to our Private Dog Park (steps away from our home and backyard) for another place to run around, play fetch and tug-of-war, or enjoy some shade under a couple beautiful trees. Our family of four will each care for them throughout the day - from waking up in the morning to falling asleep in the evening. From the initial Meet & Greet, we learn about your dog - their routines, how they play, how they like to be petted and scratched, how much and how often they eat and need to go potty, what time they wake up and go to sleep, medications they may need, commands and tricks they know that you'd like us to work on with them, and anything else you feel will make their time with us more relaxing and fun. We then do our best to mirror what you shared with us, so they feel safe and secure, and receive the love, care, and attention that they may need.

“Our dog Bria loves being with Jennifer! When we pull up to her driveway, Bria’s tail is already wagging- she can’t wait to see Jennifer and start a fun day! She loves running around with the other dogs and getting lots of attention from Jennifer and her son. It gives me such peace of mind knowing that Bria is well taken care of and loved while away from home. I highly, highly recommend Jennifer!”
About: Lived with dogs most of my life and have experience working with new born puppies to senior dogs. Most of my boarding experience is with larger breeds. I’m currently working part-time from home, so I have lots of flexibility and time. I am available regularly from 8 AM to 1 PM Monday-Friday. I am also available after 2 PM on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I also have availability in the evenings after 5 PM and both Saturdays and Sundays. I have a large fenced in backyard with two very friendly dogs of my own. We also have a cat in my home that gets along very well with the dogs. We also have a chinchilla, but he stays in his cage. I have multiple sizes crates available for use.
“What a great family we had watching our pups today! Jack and Scout had a fabulous time getting all kinds of love and attention, the enclosed backyard was fantasticly huge, and our dogs were instantly comfortable with the people and the space. Darylee and I had great communication from start to finish. This was a great experience for our first time using a Rover!”
About: Hi there! I grew up with rabbits (Netherland dwarfs) and have been a personal cat owner (five cats!) for 12 years. I have nursed my cats back from surgery and just honestly adore every kind of animal. I’m great with the more nervous and anxious ones, using patience and care to gain trust. I would love to walk, play with, and care for your fur babies! I have a very flexible schedule and am available for many hours. If you have shift work or a non-traditional schedule, or need me for when you travel, I would love to work with you and your animals! Whatever your home situation is, I will pay undivided attention to them and ensure their best physical and mental health while you are away! I also believe in frequent communication so that you know your fur baby is happy and healthy.
“Corinne and Christopher took great care of our Lola! They helped us out last minute and were super flexible with our pick up time due to the fact that we were moving. They are super nice and loved having her. We are super happy we found them and will definitely have them watch Lola for us anytime they want to!”
“Marina and Kathryn are such wonderful people! They are welcoming, extremely knowledgeable with pups, and have a great doggy daycare set up. My dogs were definitely well loved and slept like babies when they got home (which made mommy very happy!). I’d highly recommend their daycare and boarding services! A wonderful plus is Marina is a dog trainer and can help train your pups while watching over them! I look forward to future training daycare sessions with her!”
“Wow, Holly is really great and Paco had such a great time with her and all his new doggy friends. So happy we found someone who takes great care of her dogs and has so much space for them as well! Will definitely use her service again and again!”
“Our puppy is very shy with new people, but Jenny and Lucky had no problem making her feel comfortable. I felt relaxed because I knew my girl was truly cared for and safe. We found our perfect pet sitter. No need to look further! Thank you so much, Jenny!”
About: For my family and me, caring for dogs isn’t a job—it’s a passion. I naturally build deep connections with my furry guests, filling their days with abundant love, hugs, and long, joyful walks. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to what your dog needs most right now. If you have a young puppy, I provide the structured care, patience, and positive reinforcement training they need to thrive. If you have a senior dog, I bring a gentle touch, ensuring their medical routines, physical limitations, and need for a peaceful rest are fully respected. Your dog will be loved, active, and expertly cared for every single minute. As a stay-at-home homemaker, my schedule is incredibly flexible, which means pet care doesn't just fit into my routine—it becomes the highlight of my day. Since I am at home most of the time, your dog will never be left alone or ignored. From morning walks to afternoon playtime and cozy evening rests, your pup becomes my ultimate companion and best friend. I structure my day around their needs, ensuring they get constant attention, timely meals, and plenty of outdoor time. Having a dog around brings me so much joy, so caring for them feels completely natural and fills my home with happiness. I provide pet care exclusively in my home, which is tailored to be a safe, stress-free haven for your dog. I live in a secure, gated community, offering a quiet and highly protected environment for my daily walks. My house features a spacious, fully fenced backyard, giving your dog plenty of room to run, play, and explore safely under my constant supervision. Safety is my absolute top priority. I ensure that all gates are securely locked at all times, and I never leave dogs unattended outdoors. Inside the home, your pet will have full freedom to lounge and rest in a comfortable, hazard-free space, treated just like a member of my family. I would like to clarify that I will be the sole caretaker and no one else will be assisting me with pet care.

“Mariela was great with our pup, doing 2 drop in visits as scheduled. She is very communicative and sends lots of photos to show us how the visits went. We will definitely use Mariela again, thanks!!”
“My family and I highly recommend Alexis and Adam as dog walkers! They walked my two German Shepherd mixes early in the morning for 16 consecutive days for an hour each while we were on vacation. Always on time, always submitting report cards with photos and the route they walked. On top of that, my dogs, who are rescues with shyness or aggression toward strangers AND severe dog reactivity on walks, LOVED Lex and Adam! As a professional dog trainer and walker myself, I’m extremely careful with people who interact with my dogs, and Lex and Adam exceeded my expectations! It’s clear to me that they take caring for their clients’ dogs seriously and both are extremely nice and personable. Thank you Lex and Adam!!”

“Marissa was an amazing dog walker! She’s incredibly detailed and attentive, showing a deep understanding of dog behavior and how to make every walk enjoyable and safe. Her kindness and patience made such a difference, and she even shared helpful tips that we’ve used with great success. I highly recommend Marissa to anyone looking for a caring and knowledgeable dog walker!”

I double-majored in ecology and biology so nature and animals are my passion. I have extensive experience with animals and a deep understanding of animal behavior. I have worked with dogs w special-needs- I cared for a dalmatian who would have seizures and was very hyperactive, as well as many years caring for my blind dog, Tikka. I also have experience administering insulin to pets who have diabetes. From miniature chihuahua to great dane, I’ve worked with almost every breed. My schedule is flexible, so if you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to reach out. PLEASE INQUIRE ABOUT PACKAGE DEALS FOR DAYCARE!!! Pet care is a way of life for me. I care for Stella 24/7 but when we have company, I like to get up around 7am and plan my days around the dogs/animals I have the opportunity to take care of. From the beaches, to the mountains and canyons in between, I enjoy making my lifestyle an active one and enjoy bringing dogs along with me. When things slow down and I enjoy watching the dogs run around the yard while I work on projects around the house. In our home, dogs have the opportunity to venture between the house and the patio or back yard freely (so long as you are okay w that). The backyard is completely fenced in and double-gated. There is also fresh water dispersed around the property, along with plenty of toys and chews to play with. There is also a patio area so our furry friends can get some shade, if needed. When it comes to cats, I am more than happy to accommodate any size cat, I have a loft in my house that cats love to climb up into and laze about. They have toys and scratching posts up there as well for enrichment. I also have a beautiful beam that stretches above my kitchen that they tend to love to lay on and watch people walk around below. Every animal is different with its own unique temperament . What I enjoy doing is creating a comfy, secure, calm, and fun environment for each and every animal I get the opportunity to meet and care for.
“We are absolutely thrilled with the exceptional care Lily provided for our beloved pup, Hazel! Lily's patience, kindness, and attention to detail made all the difference in Hazel's walks. She took her time, ensuring Hazel felt comfortable and enjoyed every moment. The detailed report card Lily provided after each walk was impressive, giving us a clear picture of Hazel's adventures. We're so grateful to have found Lily and can't wait to have her as our go-to for weekly walks. She truly is a dog lover's dream come true! Five paws up!”
About: I have taken care of my own dogs as well as neighbors for about 10 years, however i have professional experience for about 2 years. I am currently on summer break so I am available everyday. I start my quarter at UCSD in late September and will update my schedule when I get my classes. I feed and walk my dogs daily. I also have two cats so I feed them and clean their litter box as well. I love all animals and will provide mostly any service needed (i.e. play time, potty training, feeding, walking, etc.)
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have raised and helped raise multiple dogs from puppyhood, with experience across all sizes and energy levels. I’m confident caring for puppies, adult dogs, and seniors who may need extra patience and structure. What sets me apart is real-world experience and reliability. I provide calm, attentive care and make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I work full-time Monday through Friday, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be available for dog walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. This flexibility enables me to provide dependable, attentive, and consistent care for your pets while accommodating scheduled visits as needed. At this time, I offer dog walking and drop-in visit services. I focus on providing safe, attentive, and enjoyable care while following each dog’s individual routine, energy level, and specific needs. My goal is to make every visit a positive and comfortable experience for both you and your pet.
About: Animals have been part of my life since I was little — I grew up with six dogs and started caring for them on my own around age 10. It was never a chore. I genuinely loved it. Since then I’ve looked after pets for friends, family, and neighbors, and that same feeling has never gone away. I do drop-in visits, walks, and boarding. Your pet is welcome to stay in my home, where they’ll be treated like family — not just watched over, but truly loved. I give a lot of affection and I make sure every animal feels safe, seen, and cared for. I’m trained in pet first aid and CPR, can handle oral and injected medications, and have experience with senior animals and pets with special needs. Whatever your pet needs, I’ll show up for them. I know leaving your pet with someone new can feel hard. I just want you to feel at ease — and I want your animal to feel loved while you’re gone. I’m currently studying psychology online, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet real attention. I’m available for boarding on weekdays and weekends, and I offer drop-in visits and walks in the morning or afternoon — any day of the week. Your pet is welcome to stay in my home, where everything is calm, clean, and safe. I can also come to your home if that’s what’s most comfortable for your pet. Either way, I’m respectful of their routine and give them plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I always clean up after myself and make sure your animal feels at ease the whole time you’re away.

“Sarah and her daughter were wonderful!!!!! They kept us updated with pictures of our baby. She seemed happy and at ease in the pictures. We highly recommend Sarah and will refer people.”
“Our pup who is often overly shy with new dogsitters easily adjusted to Cori and Chris (her quickest transition so far as she was snoring on the couch within the first hour). They are both so welcoming, patient, and kind— we already have our second stay booked. Sophie gives her first stay two paws up!”
“Taylor and Andrew spoiled Rafi! They gave her extra treats, made sure she ate, gave her run of their home and yard, took her for walks, and gave her affection. They were good about providing updates and sent photos. Rafi was with them for 2 wks., and when I picked her up I witnessed her seek attention and affection from them, she interacted well with their dogs, and had no initial interest in my return. I recommend them and will definitely use them again. I couldn’t be more pleased. Thank you!”
About: I grew up on a farm with many animals. We have raised our girls with many pets including: chickens, bunnies, several foster and adopted dogs, and rescuing cats that would have been euthanized to live on our farm. We have 1 acre of fully fenced yard in a cozy community. We recently had to put down our sweet pit bull and are looking to opening up our homes to care for others pets at this time. We have a lot of love to give and would appreciate your consideration. I work from home so I am available all day and night excluding of course picking up kids and family activities. We have 4 daughters, 2 of which have graduated high school and in college, 1 going into high school and a 9 year old. They have all had extensive experience with many animals and been involved with agriculture in their middle and high schools. We presently have 2 cats (one of which is fully outdoor and one that comes in at night to sleep). We understand that many individuals have cats that are fully indoor and we have ample space, beds and furniture for your cat to feel comfortable. We are also BIG dog people and missing our sweet pit bull. We have a great neighborhood for taking walks, a 1 acre fully fenced yard for running and playing in. We will keep all cats indoors at all times. We will have any animals that stay with us in our home at night and have dogs go out frequently to play.
“Darylee and her family were wonderful! She sent pictures to update us on how Dash was doing. It brought us much joy/peace knowing that Dash was in great hands and having a great time running around in their large fenced-in back yard and playing with the goats. :)”
“I liked Margaret’s confidence about having my two little poodles stay with her. Nothing was a problem so I hope she meant that and that I can board with her again!!!”
“Jenny was so great to our pup, Mozart! She was quick to respond to all our messages and sent pictures constantly so we could see how much fun he was having. Mozart also got along super well with their dog, Lucky. Would definitely use Jenny again to care for our dog. Thank you, Jenny!”
“Amazing experience. I'm so glad we found David and Jeanette. Their family home is setup perfectly for pup sitting and everyone is properly experienced with dog care. Our three dogs (aged 2-13) loved their vacation with these Rovers.”
“Stacey and Christopher were awesome! We left Goose with them for 3 days, and Stacey constantly sent pictures and updates with how he was doing and what they had been up to. Goose LOVED their backyard, and when we brought him home he was worn out for 2 days (that never happens). Stacey and Christopher both gave great feedback about Goose when we picked him up, and gave us a nice little report card for his stay with them. We will definitely request them again!”
“Ronald and his family took care of Callie. They treated her like their own. Photos were provided daily which was great because we missed her so much while we were away. They have their own dogs so that was a plus for us since Callie is still in training. She got along very well with the other dogs.”
“Super grateful for Jasmine! She took a last minute booking for our dog over the holiday weekend so we could visit family. Communication was great, and our dog came home happy and well cared for. Will definitely use them again in the future.”
“Tyler took such good care of my puppy Yucca! Tyler was very responsive and flexible with the pick up and drop off. I will definitely book again. His place is like a pet resort!”
“I’ve used Rover in the past but let me tell you I would highly recommend Gelare E. To anyone who’s looking for someone to watch their fur babies. Never in my life had someone loved and cared for our spirit like this beautiful family. They are above a 10 plus. I would never have no one but Gelare to watch my fur babies. I can’t say enough about the love and care they have for Animals. When I say trust me I mean that from my heart. They are the best fur babies sitters in the world to me. If I could give them the world for taking care of our boy spirit! I would. They are extra extra special dog sitters. Thank you God for beautiful animal lovers like this family ❤️🥰🙏🩷😇”
“Tatyanah and Everardo watched our dog Nova for five nights and took such wonderful care of her. They are so friendly and you can tell right away they love dogs. It was such a relief to know she was being loved and well cared for while we were on vacation. They have a spacious yard, and Nova especially enjoyed playing with their two dogs—she bonded quickly with Jojo! They took her on plenty of walks and kept us updated with lots of videos and pictures, which we really appreciated. We would absolutely love for them to watch her again next time we need a dog sitter!”
“Ellie (14 years old) and Chloe (13 years old), who are chihuahuas, had such an amazing stay and their happiness showed in all of the update photos during their 19 night stay. They were able to play with dogs of all sizes and ages, making so many new friends. Maddison and Moses gave frequent updates about how the girls were doing, what activities they were up to, and were very accommodating to the girls’ needs. I am very pleased with how happy and confident Ellie and Chloe remained during their stay. Rest assured this is an amazing boarding service, who treat our furry loved ones as their own. Ellie and Chloe will definitely be going back for future stays!”
“Nina was so amazing with our dog. Very easy going and communicative, and she took lots of pictures and sent daily updates which I really appreciated. She also took Parker out to the lake, beach, etc and he looked very happy in all the pictures. Will definitely use her again!! 😊”
“Michelle and Steve took excellent care of our pup. They sent plenty of picture and video updates so we knew that she was having fun and getting along well with the other dogs. Thanks!”
“Savannah took great care of my pooches. This was the first time being apart from them overnight, so I was a little nervous. She gave several update pics and made sure my two were comfortable and didn't stress about being away from me. One of them is pretty reactive to other dogs, but her and husband were able to walk both pooches without any issues. I look forward to booking with Savannah again in the future.”
