“We couldn't ask for a more perfect place for Rags to stay. It was his second visit and he was very happy to see Susan and Dick - and their dogs. He loves the treats, walks, and snuggling on the sofa. Susan kept me updated with photos and texts.”

“We love bringing our puppy to this couple. They treat her like their own. The communication is excellent and we know our Soka is being well taken care of at all times. See you next time!”

“Sarah is great! She provided daily updates and pictures of our boys which was so nice to have as it was our first time traveling without our pups. I was not worried or concerned one bit leaving them with her. She gave them top notch care and even gave me a product she recommended. We will definitely be using Sarah again!”

“I'm so pleased with the care my dog (Quincy) received from this lovely family! You can just tell when people really enjoy having dogs around and this family does! The daily updates with photos and videos show Quincy getting walks and belly rubs. Quincy is happy to jump out of the car and go to them when I drop her off. I am new to the area but will continue to rely on this family for their excellent, loving care of my pup!”


“Danielle and Austin were great! My dog Lucia gets a little nervous before staying with new people and they were so welcoming and sweet. They were both super communicative and I felt like my dog was in safe hands the entire time! Thank you both for being so great!”

“Pepper had so much fun. This sitter updated me constantly and sent me pictures throughout the days. My dog had so much fun and felt so comfortable with this sitter. I didn’t have to worry about the safety or wellbeing of my pepper with Gabi. Gabi was super quick to respond to me and asked permission before taking my pepper anywhere. I will absolutely use Gabi again and recommend her to anyone that’s using Rover! This was my first time using rover and this experience really set the tone for the app! Amazing dog sitter!!”

“Lady had a great time with Kimberly over the weekend. She sent me photos of her everyday to show me what she was up to and how she was doing. Whenever I would text her she was always very punctual and get back to me right away. Lady had a great stay!!”

“I boarded my Vizsla (Gunner) with Charles and Rachael over a four day span. This was the second time I’ve boarded my four year old dog. After the first boarding (not with Charles and Rachael), my dog was visibly anxious and distressed. He slept for almost two days after getting back. I could tell Gunner had a much better time. He was the same dog coming out of the service as he was going in. Gunner got a ton of walks and even went out to breakfast with Charles and Rachael. Rachael was excellent in handling all the daily ritual quirks of my dog. Communication and scheduled was absolutely easy. I would 100% recommend Charles and Rachael to anyone. And I will definitely rebook when it comes time.”

“Elizabeth and her family were great sitters for my dog! She sent me pictures periodically to show that my dog was doing great! It was clear to me that he was comfortable and enjoying his stay! I will defy items ask them to take care of him again.”

“I had a last minute trip and Kathy stepped right up to provide my sweet puppy Mo a loving home at the end of a busy weekend. I would highly recommend her to anyone! My dog was very well cared for and he was so at home he didn't even pay attention to me when I came to pick him up. He was having too much fun! :)”
“Rachel is amazing and took excellent care of our mini dachshund Ziggy! We are so appreciative of how communicative and attentive she is. Ziggy came back a super happy dog. Thank you!!”


“Leslie watched my cat for 3 nights. He is very shy and scared and she made sure he was comfortable in his own little area without having to worry about the other pets in the house. Although they slowly gained his trust and he cuddled with her adorable, sweet cat. I felt my cat was safe and in great hands from the moment I left him. She provided pictures and updates which was wonderful to receive. Thank you so much Leslie and to your family for being so caring and loving. And for the patience of trying to win over our little shy guy so he could get pets and cuddles. I would recommend her 10/10 to care for your pets.”

“Melinda and her family always take the best care of our dog. This was the first time our girl stayed multiple nights and she was so well taken care of. We love having Melinda sit and will continue to do so in the future!”

“Amazing!! They watched my two dogs on short notice and were absolutely amazing! They made me feel so comfortable at drop-off and reassured me that my dogs were in great hands. They sent photos and videos throughout the day, which I really appreciated. They were also incredibly patient and accommodating when we ran a little late for pickup and needed to extend their stay by an hour. I would definitely recommend them and would happily book with them again!”

“David did a great job watching Yumi! He kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout the stay, and his communication was reliable from start to finish. It gave me peace of mind knowing Yumi was well cared for. I’d definitely book with David again!”

“We just moved here from out of state and we left behind an amazing Rover sitter, so we were a little nervous trying a new one here but we really feel like we struck gold with Candace and Tim! They took such good care of our pups and sent us picture updates that I loved! You won’t regret leaving your fur babies with them :) We will certainly be using them again!”

About: For over 11 years, I’ve cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities, including French Bulldogs, German Shepherds, Weimaraners, Siberian Huskies, and my current English Labrador. Every dog is unique, and I enjoy understanding what makes each one feel comfortable, safe, and happy. I have experience with basic obedience training, including sit, down, stay, wait, leash walking, puppy training, and kennel/crate training. I believe patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement are the best ways to help dogs learn and build confidence. My own dogs are an important part of my family. I feed them a high-quality diet, keep them current on veterinary care and vaccinations, provide daily exercise, and make sure they are well socialized while always putting their safety first. When caring for your dog, I understand they are not my pet, so I always respect your routines, training methods, and instructions. My priorities are safety, regular feeding, exercise, playtime, and making sure your dog feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I treat every dog with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! 🐾 As a business owner, I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give dogs the time and attention they deserve throughout the day.

I understand that every dog has a different routine, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal schedule to help them feel comfortable and at home. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I have a secure front and backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore. There are shaded areas to keep them comfortable on warm days, as well as plenty of space for supervised play and exercise. I carefully introduce dogs to new environments and always monitor their behavior. I follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, medications, exercise, and routines. If your dog is crate-trained or has specific needs, I’m happy to accommodate them. I treat every dog with the same love, patience, and respect that I give my own, while making sure they always feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for. * I only accept a limited number of dogs at one time so I can give each one plenty of attention. * I send regular photo and video updates while you’re away. * Fresh water is always available, and dogs are never left outside unsupervised. * I can reinforce basic commands and leash manners during their stay.

About: I have cared for pets since I was a young child. My life wouldn’t be complete without them. I’ve owned, fostered, and now sit for all kinds of pets. We have a room set aside for acclimating them, and a large fenced backyard for them to wander around. I care for your pets as though they were my own. While being a stay at home with my two littles, I have lots of time to play, watch, walk, and more. We are always happy to share our home or let your family run around the fenced in backyard. We have a small kitten that is half in and half outside so we can always accommodate. There is a great walking path for us or running around in the backyard.

“Zsana is amazing and we are so grateful to have found her! She was wonderfully flexible and accommodating, working around our changing travel schedule. She truly goes above and beyond — giving the best care and attention to our dogs. We feel so lucky to have someone this trustworthy and kind looking after them while we were away. Can’t thank her enough and will absolutely be booking again!””

“As usual, great communication from Tonya. By far the most detail about a drop in from any sitter. It makes me feel so good about leaving when I know my cats are cared for!”

“Savannah took good care of our cats while we were on vacation with drop in visits. This helped us enjoy our vacation with less stress and without the need to board the cats.”


“Lexy was so helpful watching our kitty while we were out of town! Our shy kitty warmed up to her quickly, and Lexy followed all of our instructions to a T. We would highly recommend her and will definitely be recurring customers in the future!”


“Leslie is amazing! I would 1,000% book with her again. She is so sweet and caring. I loved how she sent pictures to me of my cat while he was in her care. She’s super incredible!!!”

“Yajahyra was friendly, professional, but most importantly, trustworthy. We gave her the keys to our house weeks before she came and felt 100% confident in her. Also, our cats are comfortable with us only, so we didn't expect much, but we could tell from the photos and videos she sent us (and also when we walked in the door after returning home) that they loved her. Highly recommended!”


“I was concerned about leaving Luna for a week. She is a very needy cat, gets into everything and never leaves my side. She warmed up to Zoe right away. It was nice to get a daily report and know that she was getting attention. Zoe was easy to communicate with and reliable. I will definitely have her watch Luna again.”

“Callon has an amazing connection with rabbits! Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic! He truly cares for them and did a great job communicating and sending pictures to me while I was away. He went above and beyond to care for our bunnies, bought them extra fresh food and helped get supply’s for our new babies. My bunnies had a great time with Callon and I will 100% hire him anytime I need help with my rabbits.🐰🐰🐰”

“Loree was wonderful with our two dogs and knew she was solid from our first meet and greet. She and her husband were very friendly, caring, and attentive to our dogs and provided us with tons of photos documenting their fun activities during their first stay. I would highly recommend her.”


“Danielle and Austin took Rocco in last minute and saved my day. He had the best time: they took him on a walk, played fetch, and spoiled him as if he were their own. If it wasnt because of them, i wouldnt have been able to succesfully complete a project i had due that day. Cheers to the McKeevers!”

“He did a great job keeping my brand new rescue company and making him feel comfortable his first day without me! I also got picture updates which made me feel better! Well defiantly be back (:”

“Melinda and her family took the best care of our girl. Riley came back happy and full of love. Melinda was a great communicator and made it a very easy and enjoyable experience. We are already looking forward to the next play date!”

“Sarah is an amazing sitter. She’s extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I thought my dog was going to be too energetic and difficult for her, but I was totally wrong. Definitely will be bringing my dog back again soon!”

“Michael and Cassandra have been so awesome with our pup! They welcome her in like she’s their own and she always comes back happy, tired, and content! We are so so so grateful 😊”

“Sara was great; Everything was handled professionally and with care - a plus that she had her own dog to play with mine, which was important to me when booking; She even left mine with a toy to go - needless to say, my pup left happy with Sara’s care.”

“Carmine had a great time at Lauren’s playing with Josie! We had been unsure how he’d interact with her cats so after a meet and great everyone seemed comfortable and worked out great! Excited to have a new friend for Carmine.”

“What a great experience! We left our 16 month old, 80 lb, high energy, Golden Retriever named Bailey with David, David's girlfriend Barbara, and his Golden Retriever Auggie. This was our first experience with Rover and Bailey's first time away from home. David was easy to work with and sent pictures and comments during the day. It was obvious Bailey enjoyed her play day. We look forward to working with David and his clan again. We highly recommend that you consider David for your furry family member's next doggy care need!”


About: I have experience caring for any kind of dogs and cats. I foster shelter dogs, raised and trained my Labrador Ace from a puppy and owned a senior rescue dog. I know how to care for puppies, teenager and elderly dogs, as well as kittens and cats. I'm particularly good with shy cats and getting them out of their shell, but enjoy an active, playful cat like mine just as much. Our home has a front and back yard, both fenced and a living area plus an attached sunroom. I can separate pets if needed. I have a cat room, only cats can get in, dogs have to stay outside. My cat usually roams the whole house. Can separate if needed. I also have the ability to take active dogs on walks or runs as I am an active person and runner. I am currently staying at home, so I have a very flexible schedule. I am available on weekdays, weekends, and holidays, making it easy to accommodate any pets needs . When a new pet arrives at my house, they will always get some time away from any other pets already here to get used to everything and decompress. After that they can meet under supervision and if everything goes well, they'll be together in the whole house. If they don't get along I accommodate and fence out different areas, inside and outside. I have a front and back yard, which can also be separated in two different areas. I also have a large sunroom attached to our living area. One of the bedrooms is a no dog zone for cats.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, and ferrets. I’m comfortable with a wide range of temperaments and needs, and I have experience administering prescription medications to both dogs and cats. I am currently a part-time remote student, so my schedule is pretty flexible! This allows me to easily accommodate pet care needs throughout the day, whether that’s drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, or administering medications. I’m able to provide consistent companionship and care, especially for pets who need a little extra attention or have specific routines. I’m also available during weekdays, evenings, and weekends, which helps me adapt to each pet’s unique schedule. I tailor my care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs—whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours. In Your Home: I do my best to maintain your pet’s normal routine to help them feel secure and relaxed while you're away. This includes feeding, walking, playtime, litter box or potty breaks, medication (if needed), and of course, lots of attention and affection! I also make sure your home stays tidy and your pet feels safe and loved in their familiar environment. In My Home (if applicable): My home is a calm, pet-friendly space where your furry friend can feel comfortable and cared for. I keep a clean, safe environment and follow your instructions closely when it comes to food, exercise, crate time, or special needs. I limit the number of pets I take at once to ensure each one gets plenty of one-on-one time and care. No matter the setting, I treat every pet like they’re part of the family—with patience, love, and attention to detail.

“Laura is an amazing dog walker, she is very flexible with my work schedule and always makes sure my dogs are well taken care of! Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for dog care!”


“Megan was our first walker on Rover for a puppy Lola and I was more than reassured with her excellent care. Megan was on time, provided plenty of updates and made sure Lola was comfortable and safe. She even offered to check on our other dog in the yard. Thanks again Megan! We will be rebooking :)”

“Carmine has quickly gotten so comfortable with Makenna! He’s always excited to see her. She has been a great help to us as we work on introducing him to knew things and experiences”


“Kat is great! Bruce has been on two walks with her so far and has had a great time. Kat is extremely responsive and communicative, and we felt totally confident in sending Bruce off with her. She's good at using the app and giving updates, which we appreciate. Bruce seemed so happy when they got back, and we will definitely be booking again!”


“I can’t say enough good things about Crystal. I have a very picky and often difficult Bully...he loved Crystal from the moment she walked in! Ace is very wary of new people, and he definitely could sense that she was a friend. I had never used Rover before, and she has answered all my questions and responded quickly to every message. I am so grateful that she was available when I moved into the neighborhood and started looking for someone to walk him when I’m stuck at the office. I was only expecting to come home to him safe and having gotten a potty break, but I get adorable pictures and nice comments on top of it. Definitely book Crystal, but not so much that she can’t fit Ace in...he’ll come looking for you!”

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and started helping care for family, friends, and neighbors’ pets when I was around 8 years old. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs with all kinds of personalities—from shy or reactive dogs to dogs that love everyone they meet. I’ve also looked after multiple dogs at the same time and am comfortable handling different energy levels and needs. I’ve cared for cats as well, including both territorial cats and super affectionate ones. I’m comfortable giving medication to cats and dogs and am always willing to learn about the needs of other animals. I genuinely love being around animals and treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. My schedule is pretty open and flexible right now. Open to: • Quick walk • Long adventure • A drop-in visit • Overnight care I can usually accommodate a variety of schedules. I care for pets in their own home so they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and keep their normal routine. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and lots of love while you’re away. I always take the time to learn each pet’s personality, habits, and needs so I can provide care that feels safe and stress-free for them.

“We love bringing our puppy to this couple. They treat her like their own. The communication is excellent and we know our Soka is being well taken care of at all times. See you next time!”

“Sarah is great! She provided daily updates and pictures of our boys which was so nice to have as it was our first time traveling without our pups. I was not worried or concerned one bit leaving them with her. She gave them top notch care and even gave me a product she recommended. We will definitely be using Sarah again!”


“Danielle and Austin were great! My dog Lucia gets a little nervous before staying with new people and they were so welcoming and sweet. They were both super communicative and I felt like my dog was in safe hands the entire time! Thank you both for being so great!”

“I boarded my Vizsla (Gunner) with Charles and Rachael over a four day span. This was the second time I’ve boarded my four year old dog. After the first boarding (not with Charles and Rachael), my dog was visibly anxious and distressed. He slept for almost two days after getting back. I could tell Gunner had a much better time. He was the same dog coming out of the service as he was going in. Gunner got a ton of walks and even went out to breakfast with Charles and Rachael. Rachael was excellent in handling all the daily ritual quirks of my dog. Communication and scheduled was absolutely easy. I would 100% recommend Charles and Rachael to anyone. And I will definitely rebook when it comes time.”

“They were a great family for our dog! Piper was clearly comfortable in their home and they were very kind and communicative. Would definitely have them watch her again!”

“We had such a great experience with Justin! He took wonderful care of our dog, Biscuit, while we were out of town last week. He sent regular updates and photos, which really helped us feel at ease while we were away. It was clear Biscuit was getting plenty of love, attention, and exercise—he was walked daily and came home happy and relaxed. We truly appreciate the care Justin put into looking after him, and we’ll definitely be using his services again!”

“Elizabeth and her family were great sitters for my dog! She sent me pictures periodically to show that my dog was doing great! It was clear to me that he was comfortable and enjoying his stay! I will defy items ask them to take care of him again.”

“Sean & family (including their dog Zorian) were just wonderful dog sitters! This was a repeat booking with him and I certainly plan to use him again in the future. They welcomed my dog into their family and took great care of him!”

“Evan and Michelle are wonderful people. Not only do they really care about your pet, but they send great pictures! We didn’t even need to ask for an update - Evan and Michelle are awesome about keeping communication and we are so happy they were available to watch our dog. We will always be looking to use Evan and Michelle’s services moving forward - and you should too!”


“Leslie watched my cat for 3 nights. He is very shy and scared and she made sure he was comfortable in his own little area without having to worry about the other pets in the house. Although they slowly gained his trust and he cuddled with her adorable, sweet cat. I felt my cat was safe and in great hands from the moment I left him. She provided pictures and updates which was wonderful to receive. Thank you so much Leslie and to your family for being so caring and loving. And for the patience of trying to win over our little shy guy so he could get pets and cuddles. I would recommend her 10/10 to care for your pets.”


“Doug helped put our minds at ease for our first international family trip since we've had our dog. We knew she was in great hands and always appreciated his daily check-ins assuring us of it!”

“David did a great job watching Yumi! He kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout the stay, and his communication was reliable from start to finish. It gave me peace of mind knowing Yumi was well cared for. I’d definitely book with David again!”

“Arthur was wonderful to work with. Prompt, responsive, great updates & photos. He asked us great questions to get to know our dog's needs and most importantly, took wonderful care of our Lucky! We would happily reach out to him again in the future.”

About: I have cared for pets since I was a young child. My life wouldn’t be complete without them. I’ve owned, fostered, and now sit for all kinds of pets. We have a room set aside for acclimating them, and a large fenced backyard for them to wander around. I care for your pets as though they were my own. While being a stay at home with my two littles, I have lots of time to play, watch, walk, and more. We are always happy to share our home or let your family run around the fenced in backyard. We have a small kitten that is half in and half outside so we can always accommodate. There is a great walking path for us or running around in the backyard.
