“I cannot recommend Elizabeth enough! From the moment Olive arrived, she kept me updated with frequent messages, adorable photos, and little updates about what they were doing throughout the day. Her communication was honestly incredible, and it gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. One of the biggest things that stood out to me was how comfortable Olive became with her. Olive is usually very shy and reserved in new environments, and whenever I’ve boarded her before, I noticed in photos that her tail was almost always down. With Elizabeth, though, her tail was wagging in so many of the pictures! It made me so happy to see her looking so relaxed, confident, and genuinely happy. That alone spoke volumes about how loved and comfortable she felt. Elizabeth’s dog was also the sweetest companion for Olive. They bonded so well, and I truly think having another friendly dog around made such a positive difference for her. Olive normally gets very carsick, but while she was with Elizabeth, she didn’t have a single episode of nausea, which honestly surprised me. I really think being so comfortable and having such great company helped her tremendously. Elizabeth is a true dog person through and through. She cared for Olive as if she were one of her own, and that kind of love and attention is something you can’t teach. She was always quick to respond, happy to answer every question I had, and made me feel completely at ease the entire time. I would absolutely book with Elizabeth again in a heartbeat, and I’m so grateful I found her. Seeing how happy and comfortable Olive was makes me confident she’d be just as excited to see Elizabeth again. If you’re looking for someone who will genuinely love and care for your dog like family, don’t hesitate to book with her. She’s truly amazing!”

“Annamarie was amazing with my dog ! He absolutely enjoyed his time with her ! So much so , I might have to set up a play date with her once in a while lol! I highly recommend Annamarie if you need pet sitting ! Your pet will be in the best of care ! Thank you Annamarie !”

“I've only boarded my dog once in her life, when she was less than a year old. She hasn't been around other dogs very much and is skittish with them. I was worried about how she would react. Lisa sent me multiple pictures per day for the week I was gone and it really helped me to not worry about my dog. My girl looked happy with the other dogs! I am very pleased with Lisa and will certainly book again.”

“Our pug, Meatloaf, had an absolute blast staying with Savanna! I received daily updates, multiple pictures, and could tell he was so relaxed. I appreciate her caring for my baby and being so kind!”

“Jahmilya and her family were very accommodating and amazing sitters to my two cats. They ensured that my cats were comfortable, sent pictures during their stay and allowed me to make last minute modifications which was very much appreciated. I will book with them again as it felt like a second home for my cats.”

“Mrs. Rochelle is simply amazing and has a beautiful family that helps her. She is very patient and kind. Our Taz can be a bit rambunctious but she said he did well. She sent photos while we were away on our trip. My grandpups were well taken care of. We will definitely use Mrs. Rochelle again. Thank you so much for caring for our fur babies.”

“Utah absolutely loved Cambry from the first time he met her. He had no problem going to stay with her or playing with her dog. Apparently he was even more well behaved for her on the leash than me. He came home looking like he had also been on vacation.”

About: Hi! My name is Mitzi, and I’m 24 years old. Dogs have been a huge part of my life for more than half of it, and caring for them truly comes naturally to me. I currently have two spayed Shih Tzus and a friendly Doberman, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. My dogs do great around other dogs, and I’ve also cared for family members’ and friends’ pets while they’ve been away on vacation, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can fully trust with your fur baby. I have experience with both long-haired and short-haired dogs, and I genuinely love everything that comes with caring for them. Whether it’s daily walks, potty breaks, feeding on a regular schedule, keeping up with grooming and appointments, or just giving them love and attention, I make sure every dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. Dogs are honestly my way of de-stressing, and spending time with them is something I truly enjoy. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always do my best to make them feel loved while you’re away. I am in nursing school, so i can either come during online classes or after in person class! My schedule is also open part time I live in a spacious household, my house is fenced front and back! I can also crate train your dog in your home or mine

“Had Zeus for the weekend and did an amazing job! She was able to slowly have Zeus interact with her own dogs and sent videos throughout the day . Will book with her again”


“Tyler has been excellent at communicating and watching over everything. I am very excited and definitely plan to rebook them. Highly recommend his efforts; he's good with dogs all around. Followed every instruction that was given. Open and ask if I needed anything else afterwards and even left all a treat to take home I highly recommend him.”

About: I have always loved dogs since I was a child. I’ve owned several dogs in my life, currently there are no fur animals at home but I regularly dog sit for friends and family!

Weekends available occasionally as well as holidays. I have a fenced yard with lots of room for dogs to roam and play. No other animals in the house but there will be no shortage of scratches and attention.
“"Gloria was absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond, sending lots of pics and making us feel super comfortable. Her communication was top-notch, and she checked in on us regularly. Made our stay really enjoyable - thanks for the great”


“Rochelle was great with our puppy Kobe! He was 14 weeks at the time so we were anxious to leave him in a new environment but Kobe did so well under Rochelle’s care and immediately warmed up to her during the meet & greet. She was respectful of our requests to keep him on leash outside and not going for a walk yet since he did not have all his shots. She was also very communicative and responsive and even gave us updates during his 2-night stay. Would definitely recommend Rochelle to anyone and everyone!”

“We had a great experience leaving our goldendoodle with Patty. She has a lot of experience with dogs and she goes the extra mile to make her guests happy and comfortable. She walked our dog regularly and fed her on a schedule that worked best for our beloved pet. We will definitely consider using her again when we travel out of town.”

“Solo came home a happy boy and I'm pretty sure he got a bath during his stay! He even seemed a little sad as Cameron walked away from the car. Thanks for taking care of my boy!”

“I have used Iris a few times now and they have always been great to work with. My dog was excited this time when I dropped her off. She seems to like it over there. Great communication which is always appreciated when dealing with people watching your pets. I will be using Iris again in less than 2 weeks! Would highly recommend.”

“"Maria A. did an amazing job watching Max! He had a blast at the lake, went on adventures, and even made a new friend Bruno - same size, so perfect playmate! Loved that he got lots of love and playtime with bigger buddiesu. Thanks, Maria!" 😊”

About: My family is very animal oriented and I have been around dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and ducks my entire life.

When we got home, the kitchen counter where his food was prepared was clean and neat and so was Mickey's eating area in the garage. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was well cared for while we were gone. We wouldn't hesitate at all to utilize Andrea's pet sitting services again. She was terrific!!😊”

“I had an excellent experience with Athyna as a dog sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring. From the start, she was professional, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs. My dog warmed up to Athyna right away, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. She followed all of my instructions carefully, kept me updated with messages and photos, and made sure my dog felt comfortable and loved the entire time. When I came back, my dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. It’s such a relief to find someone you can truly trust with your pet, and Athyna exceeded my expectations. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.”

I understand that your home is a very special place and your pets are family! I honor this by treating your pets with the utmost amount of patience, kindness, and love as well as respecting your home by staying within the boundaries you have laid out and leaving it better than I found it. 🏡

“Mrs. Rochelle is simply amazing and has a beautiful family that helps her. She is very patient and kind. Our Taz can be a bit rambunctious but she said he did well. She sent photos while we were away on our trip. My grandpups were well taken care of. We will definitely use Mrs. Rochelle again. Thank you so much for caring for our fur babies.”

“Utah absolutely loved Cambry from the first time he met her. He had no problem going to stay with her or playing with her dog. Apparently he was even more well behaved for her on the leash than me. He came home looking like he had also been on vacation.”

“Had Zeus for the weekend and did an amazing job! She was able to slowly have Zeus interact with her own dogs and sent videos throughout the day . Will book with her again”

About: I have always loved dogs since I was a child. I’ve owned several dogs in my life, currently there are no fur animals at home but I regularly dog sit for friends and family! I have experience with different breeds and different sizes! I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule so I can be available to care for your pups! Weekends available occasionally as well as holidays. I have a fenced yard with lots of room for dogs to roam and play. No other animals in the house but there will be no shortage of scratches and attention.
“"Gloria was absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond, sending lots of pics and making us feel super comfortable. Her communication was top-notch, and she checked in on us regularly. Made our stay really enjoyable - thanks for the great”


“Rochelle was great with our puppy Kobe! He was 14 weeks at the time so we were anxious to leave him in a new environment but Kobe did so well under Rochelle’s care and immediately warmed up to her during the meet & greet. She was respectful of our requests to keep him on leash outside and not going for a walk yet since he did not have all his shots. She was also very communicative and responsive and even gave us updates during his 2-night stay. Would definitely recommend Rochelle to anyone and everyone!”

“We had a great experience leaving our goldendoodle with Patty. She has a lot of experience with dogs and she goes the extra mile to make her guests happy and comfortable. She walked our dog regularly and fed her on a schedule that worked best for our beloved pet. We will definitely consider using her again when we travel out of town.”

“Solo came home a happy boy and I'm pretty sure he got a bath during his stay! He even seemed a little sad as Cameron walked away from the car. Thanks for taking care of my boy!”

“"Maria A. did an amazing job watching Max! He had a blast at the lake, went on adventures, and even made a new friend Bruno - same size, so perfect playmate! Loved that he got lots of love and playtime with bigger buddiesu. Thanks, Maria!" 😊”

“We were looking for a last minute sitter and Leisha was the perfect fit! Not only was she kind and attentive to Ollie’s needs, she also had her kids as part of the care crew! Her kids were so great with Ollie, kind and loving, and I feel grateful to have had Ollie with her family. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter, and will definitely book in the future when we are back in town! Cynthia”

About: Hi! I’m Marisa and I’ve always been an animal lover. :) Now that I can work from anywhere, I’m excited to start helping my neighbors with house/pet/animal sitting and pop-ins throughout the day/night! I can accommodate any specifics your fur-babies may need. I also have a slight case of OCD, so I am great with keeping things in order and tidy! That being said, I also want to note this is a NO JUDGEMENT ZONE. I'm new to Rover and happy to be here! Side note: I have a pit bull mix dog-son, Cooper, who is living with my partner full time as I grow my career! He’s my baby, and I feel that I literally birthed him (if you know, you know) :) I have a fully remote job with a nonprofit where I have flexibility with my schedule. While working remotely M-F, I can board your pets in my home, house-sit/pet-sit in your homes, and I can even pop-in between meetings throughout the day! I understand the importance of keeping fur babies on a schedule to help them feel safe and loved while in my care, and I look forward to learning what works best for your family! Kindness is my policy around all things. Please know I will treat your animals (and homes) with the upmost respect and care. I am very aware of my surroundings, carry pepper spray with me, and could probably tackle a mountain lion if it was coming for a pup (would prefer to not test that theory..).
“Anton was very attentive to our dogs. Sent photos everyday and checked in with me, as well. He was friendly, warm and his home is secure. I felt very comfortable leaving my babies with him and would recommend him.”

“Sara and Clinton were wonderful! I would definitely recommend them for your fur baby/babies and I would definitely rebook to watch my fur baby again!”

“Stephanie was amazing with my two little pups. This was my first time using Rover and I was a bit nervous leaving my doggies with a stranger. However, Stephanie suggested a meet and greet beforehand and I knew they were in good hands!”

About: "Having grown up around animals all my life, I have a natural instinct for reading a pet's body language and understanding their needs. What sets me apart is my commitment to customized care—I adapt to your pet's specific personality, whether they are playful, shy, or need extra cuddle time. I treat every guest just like a member of my own family." Since I work from home full-time, pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. My schedule is highly flexible, allowing me to provide constant companionship, frequent bathroom breaks, and playtime whenever needed. I naturally take breaks throughout the day to stretch my legs, which is the perfect time for walks or backyard play. Your pet will essentially be my 'co-worker' and will rarely be left unattended. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. When hosting pets in my home, I ensure the environment is fully pet-proofed, clean, and free of any hazards. Pets are never left unattended, and I always do a slow, supervised introduction if other animals are present. I strictly follow your feeding, crating, and bathroom routines to keep their environment as familiar as possible. If I am caring for your pet in your own home, I respect your space and follow your house rules to the letter. I maintain your security protocols, ensure doors and gates are always locked, and keep a close eye on your pet during walks to avoid any unsafe interactions. No matter the location, I promise to send you daily photo and text updates so you can have complete peace of mind while you are away.
“Mjolnir had the best time at Avery’s. I can’t thank Avery enough for taking my fur-kid at late notice and treating him like his own. I received multiple picture updates everyday and it was nice to know that Mjolnir also had a friend to play with as well. I definitely recommend using Avery and I would absolutely use them again and again!”

“Dipinthi and family took good care of our dog Kona. Their dog Leo got along well with Kona, as shown on the daily photos we received. Kona seemed to have had a fun time playing with Leo. We appreciated the daily updates, which helped make our out-of-town vacation very pleasant. We hope to board Kona again with them next time.”
