“Erica was amazing with my pups! We received pics and updates throughout their stay. My pups were well taken care of and comfy with Erica and her family. Thank you for taking care of my dogs on short notice too ❤️❤️❤️”
“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. :)”
“Kathryn and Matt were amazing. They have 2 other dogs that Gumbo was able to play with and the property was safe for him to have a good time.. They gave regular updates on how he was doing, walked him around the neighborhood and even snuggled him on the couch when he sat next to them. They were excellent caretakers.”
“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.”
“Erica did an amazing job with our dog. She made sure Cici got attention and the best of care to include administering medication as needed. She sent pictures throughout the day and was excellent at communicating. I felt like our fur baby was in great hands.”
“100% would recommend. For someone who takes their dog everywhere and always has anxiety about leaving my pup, Leigh and her family made me feel at ease being away. She is great with sending updates(without having to ask) and responding quickly. She is very much so true dog lover, even letting my over bearing bug sleep in bed with them. Also my dog is talented at escaping/running out the door but he was kept safe the whole time. Over all amazing experience and I will definitely be a repeat client!”
“Marta was absolutely incredible!! I was nervous to leave my baby puppy since I never had before. But as soon as I met Marta I knew he would be in good hands. Her dog is very well trained and she even helped keep up training while we were gone. He got so much love and stimulation that he was tired for two days after! We can’t wait to use Marta again!”
“Diana was absolutely fabulous and wonderful host. Mimi had an amazing time with her and her furry pals. We got regular updates (pictures and videos ) and Diana kept us in loop at all times with her food intake , walks and how things were progressing. I would love to leave Mimi again with her if there any such opportunity, as I know and trust Diana.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Brianne took great care of our 19 month old Bernedoodle, Kona. She and her family welcomed Kona into their home with love and care. We received pictures and updates which put us at ease since this was Kona's first time staying with another family and dog. Our dog even forgot who we were when we returned after 6 days to pick her up. Thanks again, Brianne!”
“Caleb is almost too accommodating. I’ve changed bookings on him last minute or needed a late night pick up and he’s consistently been able to meet my needs. My dog is always excited to spend time with Caleb and the other dogs. He keeps me updated with videos and photos.”
“Lori was great in multiple ways. She welcomed Coaster in and made him a part of the pack. We got lots of photos and updates every day, so we knew he was doing well. Large, fenced property for exploring and playing. Our travel plans changed while we were away, and she was flexible enough to extend Coaster's stay by several days, including feeding him her own food after ours ran out. I'm sure he'll love to go back. From our home, she's a little out of the way, but it's more than worth it. We're grateful.”
“Kevin was a great host throughout our dog’s stay with him. Our dog seemed to have a wonderful time He sent photos, and answered promptly. 10/10, definitely would recommend and book again.”
“Sierra took great care of my babies. One of my pups had a cut on his paw and she treated it as asked and had him wearing his cone (even though he hated it). When we picked them up they were happy. We were nervous because our pups can have a hard time adjusting to new places but Sierra let us know they did take some time but eventually settled and got comfortable. She also sent pictures/updates which I loved 😊”
“Scott and Lori were amazing with our frenchie Wally and communicated with us daily while we were on vacation. It was so great to see photos and videos while we were away; it really made us feel like our dog was in great hands all week. They also went above and beyond and took Wally to the beach not once, but TWICE in the same week and he loved it!! Thank you for the best boarding experience! I think our dog missed Scott and Lori after we picked him up from his "stay-cation", so that says a lot about his stay in their lovely home. We don't take many vacations but are looking forward to having him stay with Scott and Lori again next time!!!”
“I had an amazing experience with our dog sitter! They took excellent care of our dogs and went above and beyond to ensure they had a blast. Our pups absolutely loved the pool time and had so much fun splashing around. It was clear that our sitter prioritized their safety and well-being throughout their stay. We couldn't have asked for a better caregiver for our furry friends. Highly recommended!”

About: Hey there! I’m a local college student currently studying to become an RN, and I’m home for the summer bringing fresh energy and a genuine passion for pet care. I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember and grew up on a family farm surrounded by animals of all kinds, from horses and donkeys to our beloved dogs, cats, and everything in between! Over the years, I’ve helped walk and care for dogs for many different families, including first responders and nurses with long or unpredictable work hours. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and caring looking after your pets! My flexible schedule allows me to provide dependable care tailored to your pet’s needs, and my active lifestyle means your dogs will get plenty of exercise, attention, and playful energy. I treat every animal like family and would love the opportunity to care for your furry friends!
About: I am a reliable and dedicated dog sitter with six years of experience. I genuinely enjoy what I do, and I understand that each dog has their own personality, needs, and routines. I take time to make sure each dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you are away. I enjoy being surrounded by dogs and learning new things along the way, I strive to create a positive environment where pets can relax and feel secure as if they were at home. I know how important trust and communication are when leaving a pet with a sitter. That’s why I focus on being dependable, responsible, and respectful of both pets and their homes. I provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their dogs are happy, safe, and receiving the best care possible. Through my years of experience, I have cared for dogs of many different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I am comfortable working with energetic dogs that require frequent exercise as well as calmer or older dogs that need a slower pace and more patience. My responsibilities have included feeding schedules, administering basic medications if needed, maintaining secure spaces for puppies and seniors, ensuring clean water and bedding, daily walks, monitored playtime, leash training, kennel training, connecting with anxious or aggressive dogs, etc. I have also gained experience understanding dog body language and behavioral cues. This has helped me recognize when a dog may be stressed, excited, tired, or in need of attention. Being attentive to these signals allows me to respond appropriately and provide care that fits each dog’s personality and needs. My goal is to make sure every pet feels secure and relaxed while in my care. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, which is why I prioritize reliability, communication, and respect. I make sure to keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their dog is being well cared for. Building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me. Overall, my experience caring for animals has taught me patience, responsibility, and attention to detail. I genuinely enjoy spending time with the dogs I care for, and I strive to provide a safe, attentive, and positive environment where every dog feels comfortable and loved. Caring for dogs is a natural part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule so I have plenty of time to give dogs the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Because of this, I’m able to stay consistent with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and constant supervision. Throughout the week, I intentionally set aside time for dog care activities such as walks, outdoor breaks, enrichment, and quality interaction. I enjoy being active and spending time outside, so taking dogs on walks or letting them explore safely is something that fits easily into my lifestyle. This allows me to provide pets with both physical activity and mental stimulation. In addition to basic care, I also make time to simply spend quality time with the pets I watch. Whether it’s playing, giving attention, or keeping them company, I believe dogs benefit from having someone present who is patient and engaged with them. I try to make sure every dog feels comfortable and cared for during their stay. I am used to maintaining structured care routines, which is important for helping dogs stay relaxed while their owners are away. I follow feeding schedules carefully, make sure pets always have fresh water, and ensure they get regular bathroom breaks and exercise. Sticking to their normal routine helps dogs feel safe and reduces unnecessary stress. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my main goal is to keep their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions for feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific care preferences. Maintaining a familiar routine helps pets feel safe and reduces stress while their owners are away. In terms of boarding in my home, I create a calm and safe environment where dogs have space to relax, play, and receive plenty of attention. I make sure they get regular potty breaks, daily walks, and time for exercise and mental stimulation. I also monitor them closely to ensure they are comfortable and adjusting well to the new environment. When house sitting in a client’s home, I focus on keeping the pet’s care exactly how they are used to it. I provide feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship while also keeping the home clean with respect to the owner’s space. Staying in the pet’s familiar environment often helps them feel more relaxed while their owner is away. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and body language to make sure they are comfortable and happy. If a dog is more energetic, I make sure they get enough activity. If they are older or more relaxed, I adjust the care to be calm and patient. Communication is very important to me while caring for pets. I provide regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are safe and happy. My goal is to give pets reliable and attentive care.
“Our very recluse cat trusted Jenilee when we were gone for a week. Jenilee was able to brush and pet her, giving us peace of mind while away. She stilled howled at us for leaving her but calmed down shortly thereafter. I worked out an alternate schedule when I met her for first visit. She was completely reliable and we loved getting pictures of her daily. I will hire her again, especially because she lives close by, given the opportunity.”
About: Growing up in the country, my environment was filled with dogs, which gave me hands-on experience with different breeds early on. I have cared for everything from small, high-energy breeds like Chihuahua's to larger, and stronger breeds like Rottweilers and Pit-bulls. This exposure taught me how to adapt to the unique needs of each dog, including their exercise routines, feeding habits, and personality quirks. My ability to connect with dogs of all sizes and temperaments ensures they feel secure and cared for under my supervision. Rounded up I have five years of experience caring for dogs of different temperaments, sizes, and breeds making knowledge, communication, and compassion key skills of mine! These skills have been used to care for all types of dogs, whether it be seniors, new borns, or behavior challenged dogs! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, my flexible schedule allows me to prioritize the needs of the animals in my care. As a high school graduate, I have the freedom to manage my time efficiently, ensuring I can provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I schedule feeding times, walks, medications, and potty breaks around my coursework, giving each pet the structure they need while staying on top of my responsibilities. My ability to balance these tasks ensures that pets always feel cared for, even during busy periods. Having free weekends also allows me to dedicate more time to pets, who need consistent attention or engagement. I use this time for exercise, mental stimulation, or grooming, depending on the dogs needs and abilities. My focus on time management ensures that each pet is always prioritized, with plenty of quality time and attention incorporated into their routine. My goal is to provide a calm, nurturing, and healthy environment. I can ensure that pet care will fit seamlessly into my routine, allowing me to meet the needs for every dog I meet! Caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home, revolves around creating a safe, nurturing, and comfortable environment that fosters trust and well being. Safety is my top priority, which includes securing the living space to prevent accidents, removing hazardous items, and ensuring pets have access to fresh water and appropriate food for their dietary needs. I carefully monitor their behavior to identify any signs of distress or illness and address them promptly. For outdoor activities, I use secure leashes or harnesses and supervise them, and monitor them while off leash closely. Building trust with pets is essential to providing effective care. I take time to understand their unique personalities, preferences, and routines. By approaching them gently, respecting their boundaries, and offering positive reinforcement, this creates a sense of security and reliability. Whether it’s maintaining consistency in feeding schedules, potty breaks, and spending quality time/playing, I strive to create a comfortable environment for each dog I meet. I can ensure they feel valued and cared for, the environment I provide is clean, stimulating, and adapted to their specific needs. I offer comfortable resting areas, engaging toys, and plenty of space to explore. If I’m in a client’s home, I respect their established routines and follow their care instructions precisely, maintaining a seamless transition for the pet. Ultimately, my approach combines attentiveness, compassion, and professionalism to ensure every pet thrives under my care.
“I had never used Rover or any service like it before and I was so nervous. I used the house sitting service and Anna was so sweet and took care of my two cats. Not only were the kitties taken care of and loved on, she kept the house all clean! She sent photos and when I reached out she replied in a very timely manner! Anna made my time away home a lot less stressful knowing she took care of everything so well. Any future trips, I’ll definitely be wanting Anna to watch the cats! Thank you ❤️”

About: Growing up as a country girl, I've always had a deep connection with animals and a passion for caring for them.

My daily routine allows me to dedicate ample time to play, exercise, and provide personalized care, ensuring that every pet gets the attention they deserve. With a focus on trust and safety, I’m committed to making both pets and their owners feel at ease while I offer my services.

I have been inconsistently house sitting and dog walking for years now, but I am now hoping to do it more often! I have a lack of reviews, but it’s not for lack of experience :) I am laid back and I have a very flexible schedule! My availability is almost entirely open. Let me know if you need care last minute! I enjoy giving them outdoor time, so they can run around, and let out all their excitement and energy. I also love giving them little treats, when they are allowed!

“I was in a bind and needed a sitter for a few hrs for my yorkies. I have a 12 yo Sr. And a 7 mo. pup. Neither have ever stayed with a stranger. Jennifer was just down the street from my dad's house and I wasn't going to be far away from them. I gotta be honest, I was super nervous leaving them but I didn't really have another choice. Anyway, as I arrived I already felt at ease with Jennifer as a person. Then, I immediately met her daughter and felt comfortable with her as well. The introduction was quick because I was in a hurry. I already knew my Sr. was going to wait at a window for me cuz that's what he does. The window he was pictured waiting at was clean & beautifully decorated in the teenage daughter's room. To my surprise my Sr appeared to have felt comfy enough to even leave the window and wait by her side in another picture I received. Very heartwarming for me to see. I also received a photo of them going for a walk and another of my puppy receiving some love and hugs as well. Thank you for everything Jennifer! If I'm in town and in need of some pet sitting again I wouldn't hesitate to ask. 🫶🏼 Service: Pet sitting. Time: 6 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.”
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.

They will be given opportunity to run free in the big yard and then returned to their personal kennels in the evening. Food and water is provided unless given a specialized diet provided by pets owner.
“Kathryn & Matt Took great care of Charlie. Charlie was always excited when we pulled up to their house. They have a nice setup for your pet to play in the backyard or go on walks in a nice neighborhood.”
“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!”
“Trish and her family are the best. My dog gets all of the love when she is over and comes home exhausted and has happy dreams. Trish is a great communicator and sends fun pics through the day so my work day is that much better. Moving forward, I will be making arrangements for my dog to stay with Trish and fam when I am out of town so that I can travel assured my pup will have all of the love in my absence.”

“Samella was great to work with. She took great care of our dog. She was inquisitive as to our preferences for the dogs care and followed them as we requested. We would definitely book with her again if we were in the area again.”
About: I recently took a break from dog sitting to focus on caring for my baby. Now that things have settled into a routine, I'm excited to start accepting bookings again! I have 6+ years dog-sitting experience with dogs of many different sizes and temperaments. Personally I have a 85 pound German Shepherd mix, Turbo, a 40 pound labradoodle, Maple, and an 80 pound Rottie/GSD mix named Tater. I thoroughly enjoy playing with them everyday and have learned many training techniques from raising them. I have a great deal of experience caring for a highly allergic and anxious dog. I understand the helplessness that can often come with trying to find a treatment that works. If your dog has allergies/skin issues, or any other special needs, I'm more than happy to help. Rest assured your dog will be given the love and attention they need to feel comfortable in my home. We do have 1 cat (named Sesame) who would prefer to be left alone. If your dog is very reactive around cats this will not be a good fit. I am a stay- at- home mom and my husband works from home, so we can offer a great amount of flexibility with drop-off and pick-up times. Your dog will be supervised 24/7 when in my care. I have a large (2.3 acre), fully-fenced backyard for optimal play! I have three friendly dogs who would love to show your dog all the best sniff spots. We also love going on walks, playing fetch, taking naps, and playing "find it." I've taken a dog CPR class to better understand the warning signs of a dog in distress, and what actions to take in an emergency. Being a pet parent myself, I greatly understand the peace of mind that comes from knowing your dog is safe and happy. Therefore, I will always send you multiple updates, with photos, every day throughout your dogs stay. Please let me know if you have any questions! I'd love to schedule a meet and greet. I can't wait to meet your pup!

“Claudia went above and beyond to help us out with our young puppy on a busy week when one of us was out of town. She was so flexible with her schedule, coming and caring for our dogs at our home. She even cleaned up our dog run, which was so kind and totally unexpected! This was our second time having Claudia care for our dogs, and we'd look forward to her help again!”
“They were amazing with Moose! We had a last minute need for dog sitting and they were able to accommodate within 30 minutes. We felt quite lucky. They even provided their own leash, water bowl, bed, and treats so we didn’t have to leave his stuff at all. Thank you both!!!”
“Alicia was great with providing updates with Dino. He had plenty of enrichment being with Alicia and her daughter. It was great to have him with a fellow dog about his size and such great people to care for him. I would book with her again!”
“Marta is a great sitter for our pup, making sure that he feels safe and comfortable. She sends lots of picture updates as well, which is nice. We feel confident leaving our dog with her.”

About: Hey there! I’m a local college student currently studying to become an RN, and I’m home for the summer bringing fresh energy and a genuine passion for pet care. I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember and grew up on a family farm surrounded by animals of all kinds, from horses and donkeys to our beloved dogs, cats, and everything in between! Over the years, I’ve helped walk and care for dogs for many different families, including first responders and nurses with long or unpredictable work hours. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and caring looking after your pets! My flexible schedule allows me to provide dependable care tailored to your pet’s needs, and my active lifestyle means your dogs will get plenty of exercise, attention, and playful energy. I treat every animal like family and would love the opportunity to care for your furry friends! I am a senior college student at Biola University studying to get my bachelors in nursing. Currently, I am home for the summer looking to further my experience in the pet sitting business. My scheduling gives me lots of flexibility and opportunities to take care of your furry friends whenever possible. I am a very outdoorsy person and you will often find me outside enjoying sunshine by running or hiking with my dogs. Whether it’s a long walk or some playtime in the park, it’s a great way to keep your pets happy and healthy. I believe it is necessary to respect your home and maintain your pet's routine, including feeding schedules and favorite activities, to minimize stress. I send pictures and text updates ensuring you are well informed and aware of your pups activity. Additionally, I personalize each pet's playtime. Whether it’s extra cuddles for a shy pup or more active playtime for an energetic one, I know it is important for the well being and safety of each dog to be aware of their personal needs and preferences.
About: I dog sit for friends and family all the time. I love all animals and every time I see a 4 legged animal, I always ask them, how was your day, how are you doing, and I want to give them a big bear hug! I want to hold them, squeeze them and love them. They make my heart melt. I am available early mornings, during the day or evenings! More availability starting this new year for all of the wonderful fur babies! I looking forward to spending more time with them! Every animals safety is my top priority. I treat every animal that I care for, I treat like my own. I am very detail oriented and follow any and all owners instructions. I ask detailed questions about my clients animals and their specific needs.
About: I am a reliable and dedicated dog sitter with six years of experience. I genuinely enjoy what I do, and I understand that each dog has their own personality, needs, and routines. I take time to make sure each dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you are away. I enjoy being surrounded by dogs and learning new things along the way, I strive to create a positive environment where pets can relax and feel secure as if they were at home. I know how important trust and communication are when leaving a pet with a sitter. That’s why I focus on being dependable, responsible, and respectful of both pets and their homes. I provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their dogs are happy, safe, and receiving the best care possible. Through my years of experience, I have cared for dogs of many different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I am comfortable working with energetic dogs that require frequent exercise as well as calmer or older dogs that need a slower pace and more patience. My responsibilities have included feeding schedules, administering basic medications if needed, maintaining secure spaces for puppies and seniors, ensuring clean water and bedding, daily walks, monitored playtime, leash training, kennel training, connecting with anxious or aggressive dogs, etc. I have also gained experience understanding dog body language and behavioral cues. This has helped me recognize when a dog may be stressed, excited, tired, or in need of attention. Being attentive to these signals allows me to respond appropriately and provide care that fits each dog’s personality and needs. My goal is to make sure every pet feels secure and relaxed while in my care. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, which is why I prioritize reliability, communication, and respect. I make sure to keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their dog is being well cared for. Building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me. Overall, my experience caring for animals has taught me patience, responsibility, and attention to detail. I genuinely enjoy spending time with the dogs I care for, and I strive to provide a safe, attentive, and positive environment where every dog feels comfortable and loved. Caring for dogs is a natural part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule so I have plenty of time to give dogs the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Because of this, I’m able to stay consistent with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and constant supervision. Throughout the week, I intentionally set aside time for dog care activities such as walks, outdoor breaks, enrichment, and quality interaction. I enjoy being active and spending time outside, so taking dogs on walks or letting them explore safely is something that fits easily into my lifestyle. This allows me to provide pets with both physical activity and mental stimulation. In addition to basic care, I also make time to simply spend quality time with the pets I watch. Whether it’s playing, giving attention, or keeping them company, I believe dogs benefit from having someone present who is patient and engaged with them. I try to make sure every dog feels comfortable and cared for during their stay. I am used to maintaining structured care routines, which is important for helping dogs stay relaxed while their owners are away. I follow feeding schedules carefully, make sure pets always have fresh water, and ensure they get regular bathroom breaks and exercise. Sticking to their normal routine helps dogs feel safe and reduces unnecessary stress. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my main goal is to keep their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions for feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific care preferences. Maintaining a familiar routine helps pets feel safe and reduces stress while their owners are away. In terms of boarding in my home, I create a calm and safe environment where dogs have space to relax, play, and receive plenty of attention. I make sure they get regular potty breaks, daily walks, and time for exercise and mental stimulation. I also monitor them closely to ensure they are comfortable and adjusting well to the new environment. When house sitting in a client’s home, I focus on keeping the pet’s care exactly how they are used to it. I provide feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship while also keeping the home clean with respect to the owner’s space. Staying in the pet’s familiar environment often helps them feel more relaxed while their owner is away. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and body language to make sure they are comfortable and happy. If a dog is more energetic, I make sure they get enough activity. If they are older or more relaxed, I adjust the care to be calm and patient. Communication is very important to me while caring for pets. I provide regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are safe and happy. My goal is to give pets reliable and attentive care.

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: Growing up as a country girl, I've always had a deep connection with animals and a passion for caring for them. My experience in pet care includes looking after a variety of pets, from cats and dogs to farm animals like horses and goats. I ensure a safe and loving environment for all pets in my care, treating each one as if they were my own. My daily routine allows me to dedicate ample time to play, exercise, and provide personalized care, ensuring that every pet gets the attention they deserve. With a focus on trust and safety, I’m committed to making both pets and their owners feel at ease while I offer my services. I'm currently working for Uber part-time with open availability in the evening after 3pm Mon-Friday. Being self-employed not only allows me to make my own schedule, but I have a very reliable vehicle with lots of space. I've already been transporting dogs and cats with their owners for a couple of years now, and I've gotten wonderful feedback about the level of comfort their furry friends experience during transport! When your pet is in my care, they will be safe and well looked after. I keep a close eye on them and provide secure spaces for playing. I believe trust is important, so I communicate with pet owners to give them peace of mind. Your pet will get personal attention, lots of love, and fun activities, making their time with me enjoyable and stress-free.

“Lety was amazing! She was so patient and kind with my pup who is a bit reactive. She was also very attentive and communicative. She let me know how sofie was doing each time she checked on her and gave her lots of love and cuddles while we were away. Really appreciated her help when we were out of town and will definitely be requesting her for future services. Thank you, Lety!”

About: Being the mother of my own fur-child in the past, I know how much your pets mean to your family. I am willing to help with frequent walks, feeding, play and activities and also vacation pet sitting. I adore all dogs ... breeds, size, age or medical condition doesn't matter. Since I haven't adopted another dog since mine passed over the rainbow bridge last year, I take great joy in taking care of other peoples dogs to fill that space only a puppy can fill. I'll be their "Aunt Holly"! And I promise I will take care of them like they are my own. My day job is done remotely, so I'm able to work from wherever I'm at during the day... even at your home with your pups as my assistants. We will be able to take our breaks outside or go for a walk or even play together. My time is very flexible.
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.
“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 usually do pet sitting around my work schedule and am always ready for dog sitting days 😸 My work started in San Diego and Los Angeles, most recently making the move to Boise where I’ve fallen in love with the area. In my clients home I always make sure I know I everything I need to know about the pup to make them feel as comfortable at safe as possible. New caretakers can be spooky to our pets sometimes and positive, proper introductions are very essential! I make sure to communicate with the owners about the dogs needs and make sure I am aware of any notes or concerns.

About: I am extroverted and creative, and I have an affinity for people having unique inspirations and passions. I really love animals, but sadly, have none to call my own! I would love to be around them more, and offer my help and care to the community who may need it. I have been inconsistently house sitting and dog walking for years now, but I am now hoping to do it more often! I have a lack of reviews, but it’s not for lack of experience :) I am laid back and I have a very flexible schedule! My availability is almost entirely open. Let me know if you need care last minute!

Whether it's a quick visit or an overnight stay, I ensure every pet feels loved and looked after while you're away. When caring for pets in my home or yours, I strictly follow every instruction provided by the pet parent. I understand how crucial it is to stick to routines and adhere to any dietary or health restrictions for your pet’s safety. Having a dog with strict dietary requirements myself, I know firsthand how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone and worry if they will be cared for properly. That’s why I make it my priority to follow all rules and guidelines, so you can feel 100% confident that your pet is in good hands.

“Erica was amazing with my pups! We received pics and updates throughout their stay. My pups were well taken care of and comfy with Erica and her family. Thank you for taking care of my dogs on short notice too ❤️❤️❤️”
“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. :)”
“Kathryn and Matt were amazing. They have 2 other dogs that Gumbo was able to play with and the property was safe for him to have a good time.. They gave regular updates on how he was doing, walked him around the neighborhood and even snuggled him on the couch when he sat next to them. They were excellent caretakers.”
“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.”
“Erica did an amazing job with our dog. She made sure Cici got attention and the best of care to include administering medication as needed. She sent pictures throughout the day and was excellent at communicating. I felt like our fur baby was in great hands.”
“Marta was absolutely incredible!! I was nervous to leave my baby puppy since I never had before. But as soon as I met Marta I knew he would be in good hands. Her dog is very well trained and she even helped keep up training while we were gone. He got so much love and stimulation that he was tired for two days after! We can’t wait to use Marta again!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Brianne took great care of our 19 month old Bernedoodle, Kona. She and her family welcomed Kona into their home with love and care. We received pictures and updates which put us at ease since this was Kona's first time staying with another family and dog. Our dog even forgot who we were when we returned after 6 days to pick her up. Thanks again, Brianne!”
“Caleb is almost too accommodating. I’ve changed bookings on him last minute or needed a late night pick up and he’s consistently been able to meet my needs. My dog is always excited to spend time with Caleb and the other dogs. He keeps me updated with videos and photos.”
“Lori was great in multiple ways. She welcomed Coaster in and made him a part of the pack. We got lots of photos and updates every day, so we knew he was doing well. Large, fenced property for exploring and playing. Our travel plans changed while we were away, and she was flexible enough to extend Coaster's stay by several days, including feeding him her own food after ours ran out. I'm sure he'll love to go back. From our home, she's a little out of the way, but it's more than worth it. We're grateful.”
“Kevin was a great host throughout our dog’s stay with him. Our dog seemed to have a wonderful time He sent photos, and answered promptly. 10/10, definitely would recommend and book again.”
“Sierra took great care of my babies. One of my pups had a cut on his paw and she treated it as asked and had him wearing his cone (even though he hated it). When we picked them up they were happy. We were nervous because our pups can have a hard time adjusting to new places but Sierra let us know they did take some time but eventually settled and got comfortable. She also sent pictures/updates which I loved 😊”
“Scott and Lori were amazing with our frenchie Wally and communicated with us daily while we were on vacation. It was so great to see photos and videos while we were away; it really made us feel like our dog was in great hands all week. They also went above and beyond and took Wally to the beach not once, but TWICE in the same week and he loved it!! Thank you for the best boarding experience! I think our dog missed Scott and Lori after we picked him up from his "stay-cation", so that says a lot about his stay in their lovely home. We don't take many vacations but are looking forward to having him stay with Scott and Lori again next time!!!”
“I had an amazing experience with our dog sitter! They took excellent care of our dogs and went above and beyond to ensure they had a blast. Our pups absolutely loved the pool time and had so much fun splashing around. It was clear that our sitter prioritized their safety and well-being throughout their stay. We couldn't have asked for a better caregiver for our furry friends. Highly recommended!”
“Tricia is hands down amazing! This was my first time using the Rover services and it’s nice that I don’t have to look elsewhere to find Louis a sitter or someone to board him. The best part of it all was the amount of photos she sent to make me comfortable throughout his stay. Also me not leaving too many instructions and making it work. Louis was in good hands and it was more than I could have asked for. I would highly recommend Tricia and her family.”
“Excellent service! Provides daily photos and updates. Works great with dogs that are not used to multiple people or dogs. Very accommodating and times/date adjustments. Would highly recommend her.”
“Angie’s home is a dog’s paradise. Lots of space to play, and Angie is very attentive and provides great care. I will always feel safe knowing that my pup is in good hands when I’m away.”
