“20/10!! Savannah took amazing care of our pups!! Especially when it came to giving my one pup her eyedrops daily. She took the best photos and I could tell the pups had a great time! 100% recommend and would have our pups stay with her again!”
“My dogs looked so happy in all the pics sent. I would def be rebooking. I also loved the service of pick up and drop off. It definitely was a stress free experience ❤️”
“Cerita went above and beyond the call of duty when caring for blue. She fed him snacks and made sure he was comfortable. I would definitely use her services again. Thanks Cerita.”
“Samantha was amazing with my dog! She sent picture updates daily and provided me with updates while I was away (all without asking which I loved!!) I would 100% recommend using her to watch your pets and will be booking with her again.”
“Eden was absolutely wonderful. She took care of my pups while I was out of town and made them feel loved and comfortable. She consistently kept me updated with photos and videos. I would definitely book with her again.”
“Linda took wonderful care of my dog, Nicky. While Nicky was with her, we felt completely at ease. She kept us updated with photos, which meant a lot to us and showed how much attention and care she gives. Linda also took the time to get to know both us and Nicky, which made the experience even more personal and reassuring. I would absolutely recommend Linda and would trust her again to take care of my dog in the future.”
“Kylie and Anthony took amazing care of our Adonis! They met his needs and were super accommodating to us as we had unexpected travel delays. Will definitely use their services again. I felt so comfortable leaving our pup in their care. He was taken care of like their own family.”
“Our Frenchie stayed with Adriana and Cameron while we were in NYC for the week. She had the best time. We got 1-3 videos a day of her running around and claiming a stake on their couch :) They accommodated her needing to eat raw food and taking up space in their fridge. They were responsive and helpful and very timely. It was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience.”
“We boarded our dog Mango with Hana and she took very good care of him! He got a lot of exercise- going on walks, hikes, playing with other dogs. Overall he seems to have had a great time there 😊 She also makes sure to send videos and pictures frequently to keep us updated!”
“Sama was great! I reached out to her in advance about her watching our 2 senior pups while we were in the hospital delivering our son and she was super down to be flexible around his due date and take them at short notice. He came 5 days early and she was able to modify the stay and take them early that day. She sent daily updates and pictures and they were clearly very cozy and happy in her home. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Ami is excellent! She has watched our dog a couple times already while we are out of town. Our dog loves her and she’s very responsive and sends regular updates. We appreciate you Ami!”
“My lil Papi enjoyed his time with Adam and Maya. He loves when there’s other dogs around to play with. Their environment is a great space for all the dogs to play in! Appreciate you guys!”
“We’ve booked Bill and Todd like a dozen times now and they’re so awesome. Highly recommend them, it’s worth the extra couple of dollars for piece of mind that our fur babies are in good hands.”
“My dog, Cosmo, is always thrilled when he realizes we’re going to Jason’s house! It’s obvious that Jason and his family are experienced with dogs and truly love them, plus Jason is a great communicator and I can always count on pics and updates on Cosmo’s antics while I’m away. Thanks for another great stay, Jason!”
“Susan and her family are very experienced with dogs. My GSD stayed with them for a few days and I can tell she had a great time walking and playing with them and other dog and had peaceful time with cats. Susan sent me frequent updates with pictures which made me feel so much ease. I appreciate all her efforts caring my dog. I would definitely go to her next time without any hesitation. Thanks Susan!”

“Sasha is the kind of sitter you hope to find on Rover and then never want to lose. 💛 This was our second time booking with her, and after having several other wonderful sitters, we can confidently say she is 100% our new go-to for our cat, Seaweed. Her level of care, attentiveness, communication, & genuine empathy is truly exceptional. Seaweed requires oral medication 2x daily, and Sasha handles her meds + entire routine flawlessly while still making each visit feel like actual quality time with her: snugs, scratches, playtime, treats, hangouts, & lots of love! Her experience with animals is obvious, and we have SO much peace of mind traveling knowing our little Weed is in incredibly capable hands. She consistently goes above & beyond, whether it’s helping keep Seaweed comfortable during a heat wave, taking care of little things around the house, spending extra time with her, or simply noticing the small details that show how closely she’s paying attention. And somehow, on top of everything else, she takes the absolute cutest/silliest photos of Seaweed we’ve ever seen. 🥹😂 We truly adore Sasha and cannot recommend her highly enough. She’s dependable, knowledgeable, compassionate, proactive, & genuinely loves the animals in her care. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and will absolutely keep booking her whenever she’ll have us! 🤗🙏”
“I could not have asked for a better doggy sitter for my butter than Yam! She has a natural ability to connect with animals and it’s so obvious. She cared so well for my dog and it reassured me while I was on vacation. She is dependable and trustworthy. Would book her every time! Thank you!”
“Elisabeth was so incredible! Cannot recommend her enough. She watched our angelic yet clingy Siberian 1.5yr old cat every day for a week for an hour plus. My partner and I were going out of town for the first time since we adopted him and were extremely anxious about leaving him. A friend of ours had recommended Elisabeth, so we interviewed her and she was the obvious choice! Once we left, she was communicative with how Wally was doing and updated us with photos every day. Upon our return, he was happy to see us but it was clear he wasn’t starved for attention! It made us feel even more at ease that he clearly hadn’t been stressed about our absence at all. In a world out there where trusting your little one to someone else (and having them in your home) can be scary and anxiety-producing, you def want someone like Elisabeth taking care of them. Hire her!”
“Aurora did an excellent job with Zoomy. She played with him to keep him from getting bored. She did a great job keeping everything clean. Greatly appreciate your help with Zoomy!”
About: With 13 years of cat care experience, I am deeply familiar with feline behavior across all life stages. From the high energy of raising kittens to the delicate, specialized needs of senior cats, I handle every personality with patience. I am fully confident administering medications in various forms and view routine tasks like deep-cleaning litter boxes as a breeze. Whether your cat craves engaging playtime and mental stimulation or simply needs a calm, reassuring presence while you are away, I adapt completely to their comfort level.
“Mackenzie is an exceptional cat sitter! From the moment we first contacted her, her communication was outstanding. She was incredibly responsive to our questions and updates. Her punctuality was also remarkable. She arrived exactly when she said she would for every visit. She made sure that our two cats (they are really shy) were well cared for and happy. We truly appreciated the regular photo updates of the cats during each visit. Mackenzie went above and beyond, and it's clear she genuinely loves animals. We wouldn't hesitate to work with her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter :)”
“Milla watched my cats for a long trip and she is great at communicating and was very professional. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She responded quickly when I had questions and my cats really liked her. She kept my space clean and tidy for when I came home as well. Thank you Milla!”
“I highly recommend Jordan. He did a drop-in visit for my dog and I couldn’t be happier. Great communication before and during the visit, arrived on time and handles everything exactly as requested (potty break, water, feeding and playtime). The update and photos were super helpful and gave me real peace of mind. I’ll absolutely be rebooking.”
“Lara did an excellent job taking care of my two 🐈 .She was always on time and very reliable, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I especially appreciated the regular updates she provided after each visit—it was reassuring to know how my cats were doing and that they were in good hands. She was attentive, caring, and clearly experienced with pets. My cats were well taken care of, and I could tell they were comfortable with her. I would definitely recommend Lara to anyone looking for a trustworthy and responsible pet sitter!”
About: We’ve always had at least two cats growing up, so I’m very familiar with the different personalities and needs across the feline spectrum! I currently care for four little fellas, two of which I’ve had since they were kittens. I super enjoy making toys and pet-safe treats from home, and they’re always well-loved.
“Susanne took such good care of my kitty, she’s my child and Susanne really cared for her like I would. It’s nice to trust someone and know that they are loving your cat the same way you would! Thank you Susanne for everything!”
“Lindsey is absolutely awesome with our cats. Our little shy, skittish kitty just loves her. We love using her to drop in when we are away. She goes above an beyond to help with everything that comes up when we are travelling.”
“Emily did an excellent job taking care of my cat Jack. She sent lots of pics and kept in touch. Jack was a very happy camper and got lots of loves and attention. I would definitely hire Emily again!”
About: With over 25 years of hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs. I provide patient, confident, and compassionate care. To me, pets are family and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m experienced in caring for senior pets and those with special needs, including administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and maintaining consistent feeding and medication schedules. Whether your pet is energetic, anxious, aging or simply needs extra attention, I’m committed to providing a safe, loving and reliable experience while you’re away.
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for family and friends over the years, providing walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and lots of love. I’m dependable, attentive to each pet’s unique needs and routine, and committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.
“Kristyn took great care of my two kittens when we were out of town for 7 days. She spent time on petting, playing with my cats. I know my kittens are in the good hand when I saw pictures which my kittens were lying on her legs. Kristyn sent me pictures and how they were doing everyday, so I don’t worry about them at all. If I will need similar help, I will go to Kristyn again for sure. Thank you so much for Kristyn’s help. It is much better than sending the kittens to the commercial pet hotel.”

I can easily crate if desired as well.

“Susanee is an excellent dog sitter! She took great care of my dog, Zhuangzhuang, and there was also another Bernese dog for them to play with, which helped Zhuangzhuang burn off a lot of energy. Plus, Susanee has a large, fenced yard, perfect for active pets. Zhuangzhuang had a fantastic day!”
About: Hi, I’m Emily - a life long dog lover who's had pups most of my life, including my sweet Pomeranian who lived to 19 years old. I work from home, so your dog will have constant companionship, lots of love, and plenty of attention throughout the day. We have a fenced yard for safe play and zoomies, and I truly treat every pup like part of the family. From walks to snuggles, I’m here to make your dog’s stay pawsitively great 🐾 I currently work from home so I'm available 24/7 to take care of your sweet pup.

I'm here to ensure your dog is as happy as possible while you're away.
“Whitney was great! Ghost is home sleeping like a baby. I’m glad she enjoyed her time with Whitney, and we have a person we trust to take Ghost to when we need it. I appreciate the updates and communication.”
About: I am very active and will walk and play with your fur babies. I have owned and cared for pets over 40 plus years. Always positive reinforcement. I am retired and available to care for your pets any time day and night. I will be available over the holidays as well this year. My home is clean and organized and pet friendly environment. Free to roam and access to a patio area with fresh air. Also grass area.
“Saddaf is so sweet and quick to respond. She really helped out when I was in a pinch for a day sitter. Her timely coordination made me feel at ease and my dog felt comfortable right away.”
“Thanks again to Adriana & Camron for taking such good care of Levi for the day. He obviously had a great time...he came home and conked out!! They say a tired dog is a happy dog! And especially an Aussie! And we appreciate all the updates and pictures as well. We’ll definitely be back.”
“Eden is so sweet and takes great care of my fur babies. She constantly updates me with photos and videos. She is also very understanding about last minute changes. I will definitely book with her again!”
About: I have personally owned two dogs, a golden retriever and an Australian shepherd. Though our sweet golden made her way across the rainbow bridge after 15 years together, our Aussie is living in WA with her grandma and grand-paw, where she has a big yard to play in! I have always had no less than three kitties at one time, until moving to San Diego. I now have two Maine coons, Milo and Milly. I like to describe them as a sassy teenager and a toddler going through his terrible two’s, but I wouldn’t have it any other way! Their spunky personalities are what attracted me to Rover. I’m so excited to meet your fur babies! I recently left my career in finance to focus on raising my son and to spend more time with my family and two kitties. Because of this, I have the freedom and flexibility to make my own schedule and accommodate your pets’ schedules. My two year old and I take 2-3 walks a day and trips to the park throughout the week, but we’d love to be joined by your pup or to make a pit stop to see your kitty! Personally, I do not let my cats outside due to how many coyotes are nearby. We do have a fenced yard for doggies to run and play in. Our home is clean, with endless toys for them to play with!
“Rebecca was amazing. I requested the night before, and she made room for Pancake the next day. She had an amazing time playing with the other dogs and kiddos at the house and came home to zonk out. Thank you so much for giving her such fun days!”
About: I’ve spent my whole life around pets, caring for them with love and dedication. After my own dog, Techa, passed away, I realized I still have so much love to give, even if I’m not quite ready to adopt again. That became part of my own journey with pets, and it’s why I opened my home to welcome and care for other families’ dogs. I don’t just stay home with them, I take them out, observe them closely, and tune into what they need and what makes them feel happy and safe. I have a natural intuition with dogs and pay close attention to their behavior and energy so they feel understood and comfortable. I also love sending lots of photos and videos so you can feel connected and at ease while you’re away, just like I would want for my own dog. . Be prepared for some cute photo bombing! Because I work remotely, your dog will have constant companionship, care, and lots of love throughout the day. I’m available for weekends and extended stays, and I always send daily photo and video updates for peace of mind. I have a fenced yard with a small garden, and there are no other animals in the house, so your pet will receive my full attention. I believe animals need daily outings to stay healthy and happy, so I offer at least two walks a day, either short or long depending on their needs. Playtime and affection are also essential parts of my care routine. If I care for your pet at their home, I make sure to follow their regular routine, so they feel comfortable and secure in their own environment. I also send daily photos and videos to owners so they can relax knowing their furry family member is safe, happy, and well cared for
About: Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority. I provide loving care, attention, and a calm, stress-free environment. I treat every dog like family and follow their routine carefully. I am pretty flexible and pet-sit full time. So I'm willing to take pets based on my availability. I am usually available even days a week. Whether at my home or at my clients home, my clients can be rest assured their loving pets would always receive the same loving care.
About: I only accept one doggie family at a time, so your dog(s) will be the only ones here for boarding and doggie day care. I wanted to create a safe place for reactive dogs, little loners, and calm senior doggies who just want a place they can be themselves and have my full attention! I am a dog-lover with my whole life of experience in caring for them. I have had them in all shapes and sizes - my first two dogs being big German Shepherds to my last dog which was a little Maltipoo, and a few in between. I have potty trained quite a few dogs in my life, as well as helped them through their senior years. Most important of all, I will love your pets like they're my own children! 🩷 I'm currently working part time from home so I have plenty of availability to take your pup outside for potty breaks or walks and give them attention throughout the day. I have a safe, fenced yard with plenty of room for sniffing and sunshine. Big dogs will have room to run and fetch. I also have senior dog care items like a step to get on the couch. I allow dogs to be free in the house, they are never crated unless the owner specifically requests it as part of their nightly routine. In that case - I have a long gate that can be made into a pen, and a cage for a small dog, if requested. Pets are family here - I have always allowed my own pets on the couch or bed and will do the same for yours unless you prefer otherwise.
“Ali has been watching our dog for a few months on days that we need help and she is worth every penny! Most days we have to drag our dog Cali away from her house because she has so much fun there.”

“Paige is wonderful with my dog, who has leash anxiety. As our regular dog walker, she is always punctual and communicative. On our first visit, Paige took the time to ask thoughtful questions about his triggers, routines, allergies, treats, and do’s and don’ts before starting. She handled him calmly and patiently, making safety and positive interactions a clear priority. I really appreciated how attentive and understanding she is, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in caring, capable hands. Highly recommend!”
About: I have always loved animals. When I was nine years old I found 5 puppies under a shed - without a mother. I carried them home to get them to a safe environment. I brought many lost dogs and cats home. I am also American Red Cross CPR certified for dogs and cats. Your dog or cat is a very important member of your family !! I will do everything necessary to keep them safe in my care. I retired from nursing and teaching January 2026. I spend time with my grandchildren but looking to spend more time with dogs and/or cats. I have a flexible schedule. I have a friendly dog Noway and live in an apartment with my husband Mark. We also have a dog park close by. Noway is a gentle sweet dog. He loves people and dogs.
About: I love all cats. From skittish to playful. I have cat sat in home for friends. I’ve also boarded a cat for friend for a month while he traveled. I’m currently have a flexible schedule for cat sitting. I have two of my own cats. They’re 7 years old & littermates. They have done multiple cross-country trips with me.

About: I’ve been caring for pets through Rover since 2021 alongside my business partner, whose established account was used for our bookings. She no longer lives here, so I’m now building my own Rover profile. • • • I’ve cared for dogs of different sizes, ages, energy levels, and personalities and enjoy getting to know what makes each dog comfortable. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow any special instructions or routines your dog needs. • • • ***I welcome dogs of many sizes; puppies and larger dogs are considered case-by-case to ensure the right fit. A meet & greet is required for first-time boarding guests.*** I work from home, so I’m around throughout the day for frequent potty breaks, supervised yard time, walks, play, and attention. Since I only host one dog at a time, I can adjust the day around your dog’s normal routine, energy level, and preferences. I host one dog at a time in a calm home with no resident pets or children and a fully fenced yard. Dogs are never left outside unattended. Before a first stay, I prefer a brief Meet & Greet so I can learn about your dog’s routine, personality, and any special needs and make sure everyone is comfortable.
About: I have been around dogs and cats for most of my life and have always enjoyed the companionship and care that comes with having pets. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take pride in providing patient, attentive, and loving care. I also regularly care for my dad’s small dog when he is out of town, including walks, feeding, companionship, and making sure she feels safe and comfortable. I would treat your pets with the same care and attention I would give my own. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine, and I am available Monday through Wednesday before 5:00 PM. I have a flexible daytime schedule and enjoy being able to provide reliable, attentive care, including walks, check-ins, feeding, and companionship. I’m happy to work with your pet’s individual routine and needs. I understand that caring for a pet also means being respectful of their home. I will treat every client’s home with the same care and respect I would my own, keeping things clean and orderly, following any instructions provided, and making sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind knowing both their pets and their home are in responsible, trustworthy hands.
About: Animals have always been part of my life. Growing up on a ranch, I was surrounded by all creatures great and small. From housebreaking a pot-bellied pig (yes, you read that right!) to riding horses in rodeos, my adventures with animals started young. Now, I get to extend that passion by caring for my friends' and families' furry companions. Every pup has a unique personality, quirks and all, and I love figuring them out. My goal is to make their time with me a blast, filled with cuddles and fun! People trust me with their precious pups, and I take pride in providing them with the loving and gentle care they deserve. With Friday-Mondays free, I can offer your pup all-day companionship and care. As a dedicated homebody who doesn't travel, I'll give your furry friend my undivided attention. I focus on creating a safe, welcoming atmosphere where you can feel completely confident leaving your pup. My home is a peaceful space free from the noise.

About: I have been a dog person my whole life. I have had my own pups for most my life, and friends and family have always trusted me with their fur babies. Dogs make me happy, I try my best to return the favor! We don't deserve their friendship, so I don't take them for granted. As a real estate agent, I primarily work form home and have a very flexible schedule. I can work my days and weeks around my priorities. I live in a townhome without a yard, so any pups that stay over will get a lot of walking time. I have a nice park about a quarter mile from my home that makes for an easy 30-45 minute walk.

“We boarded our dog Mango with Hana and she took very good care of him! He got a lot of exercise- going on walks, hikes, playing with other dogs. Overall he seems to have had a great time there 😊 She also makes sure to send videos and pictures frequently to keep us updated!”
“Ami is excellent! She has watched our dog a couple times already while we are out of town. Our dog loves her and she’s very responsive and sends regular updates. We appreciate you Ami!”
“My lil Papi enjoyed his time with Adam and Maya. He loves when there’s other dogs around to play with. Their environment is a great space for all the dogs to play in! Appreciate you guys!”
“We’ve booked Bill and Todd like a dozen times now and they’re so awesome. Highly recommend them, it’s worth the extra couple of dollars for piece of mind that our fur babies are in good hands.”
“My dog, Cosmo, is always thrilled when he realizes we’re going to Jason’s house! It’s obvious that Jason and his family are experienced with dogs and truly love them, plus Jason is a great communicator and I can always count on pics and updates on Cosmo’s antics while I’m away. Thanks for another great stay, Jason!”
“Susan and her family are very experienced with dogs. My GSD stayed with them for a few days and I can tell she had a great time walking and playing with them and other dog and had peaceful time with cats. Susan sent me frequent updates with pictures which made me feel so much ease. I appreciate all her efforts caring my dog. I would definitely go to her next time without any hesitation. Thanks Susan!”
“We’ve now completed two trial daycare days and two trial boarding stays with Mark, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Mello has separation anxiety, so we wanted to make sure she truly felt safe and comfortable before her official boarding. Mark has been incredibly patient, thoughtful, and genuinely caring every step of the way. He really goes above and beyond — he even brings Mello along with him when he’s out running quick errands like picking up pizza or McDonald’s, just so she can feel included and never alone. It’s clear he’s not just watching dogs — he’s trying to be their best friend. The biggest and most wonderful surprise: we had arranged trazodone for Mello to help with her anxiety and sleep, but she’s become so comfortable and happy there that she no longer needs it to rest well at night. That means everything to us. We’re heading into her official boarding stay next, and we feel completely confident she’ll have a great time. Thank you, Mark, for caring for Mello like your own!”
“This was our second time trusting Holly with our furbaby! She is always on time, communicates right away, and sends several daily updates so we never have to worry. It puts our minds completely at ease when we are missing our pup. Thank you, Holly, for being an awesome dog sitter!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Nick. He was professional, reliable, and cared about my pet's well-being. I received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My pet came home happy, and well cared for. I highly recommend Nick to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter, and I would definitely book with them again!”
“Marissa was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter. Our dog is older and needs a little extra patience and understanding, and Marissa handled everything with such kindness and care. It was clear from the start that she genuinely cared about making sure our dog was comfortable and happy. She was also an excellent communicator throughout the entire time we were away. Marissa regularly sent updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind and made it easy to see how well our dog was doing. Those little check-ins really meant a lot. We’re incredibly grateful for the attention and compassion she showed, especially with an older dog who needs a bit more gentleness. I would highly recommend Marissa to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and communicative dog sitter.”
