“Excellent care of my 2 dogs. This sitter provided daily communications with pictures, flexible scheduling, dog-friendly indoor and outdoor play settings. Judging from my dogs’ behavior when I brought them home, I could tell they actually ENJOYED their stay and received top notch care. Exceeded all my expectations!”
“As always Brittany is amazing with my very active Husky! He loves being with her and her family and gets plenty of love and attention. My pup feels right at home every time. He cant wait to go back for his next stay.”
“Dani is great with dogs. Our dog Hart spent the week there while we were on vacation. We got pictures and updates every day and he enjoyed his time there. Dani is conveniently located for us and very kind. Your dog will be in great hands!”
“As first time puppy parents and first time Rover users it was extremely difficult to leave our pup with anyone else. Suzanne made the entire process extremely easy and comfortable for us. From the booking and flexible arrangements to a slew of happy pictures of our puppy Eloise smiling and playing with her and her family made us feel extremely comfortable in our decision and allowed us the peace of mind to enjoy our getaway. We will not hesitate to use Suzanne again for any of our boarding needs in the future. Thank you Suzanne for loving up on our pup for us!”
“Dawn has watched my German Shepherd twice and is an excellent host. My dog always comes back tired and very happy and healthy! I can tell she takes great care of her and for that, I am thankful. Thanks Dawn! We look forward to seeing you again.”
“Saskia took excellent care of our dog while we were out of town for a week. We received daily pictures and updates. Saskia was great at reaching out and addressing any concerns promptly. We were thrilled with her care of our energetic pup and will not hesitate to book again. Thanks!”
“First time using Rover and first time in 10 years having a sitter outside of immediate family, we were so nervous. Samantha met us prior to and put us at ease. We had a wonderful experience having Samantha caring for our 2 boys while away! She sent us photos and little updates everyday and even had some great suggestions for us moving forward about a feeding time issue we were having.”
“Colette was great with our two dogs, she has a lovely backyard where they got plenty of exercise and made themselves at home in her living room lounging on the couch and playing with their toys! I’d definitely recommend her for your pups care!”
“My dog, Ramus, had the best time ever staying with James and Mallory. He was with them for three nights and I received pictures and text updates every day. I love how they just brought him into the fold of their family and included him in their daily life. They are definitely my pet sitters from now on!”
“This was Bodhi’s second stay with Katie and her family. They took wonderful care of him and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who will treat your pet with loving care and attention.”
“This is the first time we had to leave our dog with someone other than family. Kyla was very kind and understanding and sent me pictures and updates on Frankie during our time away. She made me feel comfortable leaving him in her care. I would highly recommend Kyla. Her young daughter also took a liking to Frankie and took very good care of him.”
“Another perfect stay with Debby! We now lovingly refer to a visit with Debby as a visit to Mookie's second home. As always, Debby sent lots of photos, videos, and snippets about the day to make sure we knew that Mookie was at his best. Debby is a gift to both the pet and the pet-parent, and we feel so fortunate to have made this connection.”
“Elizabeth took great care of my dog Hazel and sent a lot of pictures and updates. She also took her on nice walks and Hazel had plenty of outside time. She administered Hazel's medication each day as well. Overall, Elizabeth did a great job with my dog.”
“This was my first time using Rover/dog sitter and I was nervous leaving my two girls with strangers. After doing a meet and greet with the sitter I felt I made the right decision and was less nervous. I love the care they received with the sitter and their family. Daily updates, pictures and videos showed me just how happy my girls were. I will definitely book with Francis E and her family again, without any hesitation.”
“What a pleasure! Skyla was very welcoming and kind. This was my first time leaving my fur baby with someone and she definitely eased my worries. She was excellent and communicated regularly. She sent me photos and took amazing care of my Lila.”
“Keasha and her family took great care of Bagel! I was confident that my dog was in good hands. Will certainly come back to Keasha when I travel again. I can’t recommend her enough.”

“Tiffany was super prompt and professional, and so great with my kitty! I felt completely at ease knowing that she was going to drop in and visit him while we were away, and even sent me updates and pictures of him! My cat was in great hands with Tiffany and she truly loves animals. Very trustworthy and reliable. Also - her response time through the app is impeccably fast, every time! Highly recommend.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets and farm animals of all kinds. I grew up on a 118-acre hobby farm, where caring for animals was part of everyday life and where my passion for animal care first began. I went to school to become a veterinary assistant and have continued working with animals throughout my adult life, giving me experience with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and care needs. I’m comfortable administering medications, caring for senior pets, and working with animals that may need extra patience, attention, or specialized care. I currently have two dogs and a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone dependable and attentive caring for your pets while you’re away. Whether your cat is social and playful or shy and independent, I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. I treat every pet like family and strive to provide reliable, compassionate, and stress-free care for both pets and their owners.
About: I grew up with four dogs over the past ten years! Friends and neighbors relied on me to walk and feed their pets and pet sit. I am currently a grad student going to clinical. I am available in the evenings Monday/Wednesday through Sunday! On Tuesdays, I am available during the day! I live in the Fox Point neighborhood and I feel comfortable walking and or running with your pet. I will treat your pet & home with love!
“Amanda was great! She worked with my schedule and had great communication while setting up care. During my trip she took good care of my 2 cats and sent lots of pictures that helped set me at ease.”
“This was our first time working with Olivia and she was absolutely amazing! Our kitties were fed, played with, cared for, cuddled, and loved daily. Our Siberian cat is generally skittish with strangers and takes a while to warm up. To our surprise, Ruby was immediately obsessed with Olivia! We were able to relax during our trip knowing our cats were well taken care of. We cannot say enough great things about our experience and could not recommend Olivia more. She is respectful, honest, kind, timely, and a true animal lover. She will be our pet sitter for all future travel plans :)”
About: As a lifelong cat owner, my top priority is delivering exceptional care to ensure both you and your kitty feel completely comfortable and at ease. In addition to my private pet care services, I work at a dog and cat boarding facility, where I've gained experience reading unique feline personalities and adapting to their individual needs. I am also fully trained and experienced in administering both oral and subcutaneous medications safely and stress-free.
“Lauren did a wonderful job with my two dogs! Vizlas are high-energy dogs and she made sure they got plenty of exercise when she dropped in to care for them. She even cleaned up a mess the puppy made! Thank you very much😀”
About: I bring a quiet, steady presence into every visit. Cats are highly sensitive to energy and routine, so I move slowly, speak softly, and allow them to approach on their own terms. I focus on maintaining their normal schedule and creating a peaceful environment where they feel safe and undisturbed. My goal is for your cat to remain relaxed and comfortable while you’re away, with care that feels consistent and respectful.
“Thomas did a great job with my 2 cats. They are very shy creatures, and don’t come out of hiding for most of the sitters that I have tried, but they were very friendly for him and got lots of snuggles. It is good to know that I have a reliable cat sitting option who my cats really like.”

“Dani was amazing! Took my dog to her 3x and she was excited each time. Photos and updates were sent without asking. I would definitely book anytime to take care of my fur baby. I highly recommend.”
“Kayla was amazing with my dog! Each time I picked him up, he was happy, and clearly well cared for. She took amazing care of my pet even though he has a broken leg and has restrictions. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. Her services are absolutely worth every penny.”
“Our Roo had a wonderful time. We picked him up and he was a very happy and tired boy. Suzanne has a great fenced back yard that is perfect for dogs. She’s very responsive and we so appreciated her taking Roo on fairly short notice. Thank you Suzanne.”
About: Hi, I’m Clara! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve worked with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from tiny parrots to towering horses—and I’m confident handling everything in between. I have experience with: • Puppies and young dogs (training, socialization, and lots of patience!) • Caring for a dog with frequent seizures and special health needs • Working at a large dog rescue in Mexico, rehabilitating street dogs with behavioral and medical issues of all sizes • Administering oral medications and following detailed care instructions • Senior pet care with extra attention and gentleness (my dog is epileptic so I know how to administer all seizure meds and the full protocol) • Basic training and reinforcing good behavior • Horse care from years of working in barns (feeding, grooming, handling) • Volunteering for a year at a parrot rescue, learning about specialized bird care I’m active and outdoorsy, so I love taking energetic dogs for runs, hikes, or long walks—but I’m just as happy giving older or calmer pets plenty of snuggles. Safety, compassion, and keeping your pets happy are my top priorities, and I’ll always send plenty of photo updates while you’re away. I’m currently completely open and very flexible with scheduling. I’m not working another job right now, so I can adjust to your pet’s exact needs—whether that’s early mornings, late nights, or last-minute bookings. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. In my home, pets must be friendly with other dogs, as I have my own, and everyone’s well-being is a top priority. We have a fully fenced yard for safe play and fresh air, and I love going on regular walks to keep pets happy and healthy. I’m very routine-oriented, so I’ll follow your pet’s feeding, exercise, and care schedule exactly as you request—whether in my home or yours. I make sure each animal feels secure, loved, and stress-free, with plenty of supervision, enrichment, and affection.
About: Hi! My name is Laura and I’m an experienced dog mom of nearly two decades. I know how to keep dogs feeling safe, clean, fed, and cared for when their owners need some help. I can offer special care and also give medications if needed. Note: I can only accommodate small dog breeds. My dog named “Tallulah” is a 9Ib female (spayed) Maltese. She is very dog friendly, though, we can discuss whether you’d like your dog to spend time with Tallulah or be in a separate area of my home. I can accommodate any specific requests you may have! 💞 🐾 I currently work remotely from home so dog boarding is available Monday-Sunday! I am present for the entirety of your dogs stay. My goal is to provide the care your dog is accustomed to at home so the experience is not only safe but enjoyable 🏠 🐾 ❤️ All dogs in my care will be tending to just like they’re at a special dog hotel and on a schedule of your choosing. My home is very quiet, private, and safe. I can accommodate any specific requests you may have! 💞 🐾
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience with both training and senior care. I trained my own dog, who is now 12 years old, and I currently care for him as he experiences arthritis. This has taught me how to recognize signs of discomfort, adjust activity levels, and provide daily massages to keep him comfortable. I understand that not every dog needs long walks, and I prioritize each pet’s individual needs, safety, and well-being. I’m currently a senior in college, which gives me a bit more flexibility in my schedule, and I truly enjoy spending that time caring for pets. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, or extended care, I’m able to plan my days around pets and give them the attention and consistency they need. I live in an off-campus house with a front yard that does not open onto a busy street, which helps provide a safe and calm environment for pets. The house is spacious, allowing pets to move around comfortably and have their own space to relax. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I’m very attentive and focused on making sure they feel comfortable, secure, and cared for. I take time to build trust, follow routines closely, and make sure pets feel safe and happy in my presence.
About: I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I have experience with both playful puppies and senior dogs. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always keep you updated! I’m a college student here in South Carolina who really misses my pets back home, so I’m looking for chances to care for other people’s pets while I’m at school. Spending time with animals — whether walking dogs, feeding cats, or just giving them attention — makes me happy, helps me manage stress, and gives me something meaningful to look forward to outside of my classes. In my home, pets enjoy a safe and relaxed environment. I have a friendly golden retriever who’s trained to stay in the yard, and a bunny who’s free to move around the house as he wishes. I make sure everyone stays comfortable and safe, supervise outdoor time, and always follow your care instructions closely—whether your pet is with me or I’m caring for them in your home.

“Amber and her daughter were so sweet! They did a great job taking care of our little guy while we were away for the day. He's friendly but he can be a handful. Amber they kept him safe and sound and he had so much fun with them playing outside - I'd be happy to have her watch him again in the future. Thanks so much for the help!”
“Anely is amazing! I needed a last-minute dog sitter for my elderly and cranky Chihuahua, and I feel so fortunate that she was willing to help me out. In addition to doing drop-off/pick-up from my place in downtown, she also sent frequent updates and photos throughout the day. My dog is afraid of strangers, so she’s not an easy one to handle, but I knew she was in great hands. 10/10, would definitely recommend and will book again!”
“We’ve had a great experience with Trish. Gizmo is still new to us and can be sensitive with transitions, and she has been incredibly patient, calm, and accommodating from the start. He settles while he’s there (even if he hasn’t slept yet), and it’s clear he feels safe and well cared for. She’s kind, attentive, and truly understands dogs who need a little extra gentleness. I’m so grateful to have found someone I trust and feel comfortable leaving him with. Highly recommend!”

About: I have worked with dog trainers so I know some training skills needed to help with certain behaviors. I can administer meds if needed. I have had farm animals so I have that experience as well. I am looking to fill my time with some amazing animals because of my love for them. I take care of everything from farm animals to cats. I can watch cat friendly dogs in my home. I have gates and a safe environment. I am more than willing to watch pets in the clients home as well to make them feel comfortable and help with routine.
About: I've had dogs since I was 10 and participated with their health care growing up and decided I wanted to be in the veterinary field from that point. I started pet sitting for a farm in 2017-2021. I went to school to be a veterinary assistant in 2020. I later got a job at a vet clinic in 2021 and started pet sitting for clients there on the side. I've had 4 years experience with observing animal behavior and know what to look for when a pet is feeling ill, restraint, nail trims, administering medications, injections, and treatments. I also worked for a summer at a dog boarding facility and have experience with observing play behaviors to prevent fights from breaking out in groups. I just recently quit my full-time veterinary assistant job in October 2025, due to workplace drama and still have some regular pet sitting clients from the vet clinic, but thought I'd give this a shot to widen my clientele. If you like my services, I encourage you to contact me outside of Rover! I can only take on other dog friendly dogs in my house because I have 2 myself. I'm willing to go to your house for visits if they're not dog friendly. I have an unfenced yard, so any dogs staying with me will go outside on a leash. Dogs must be crate trianed to stay at my house. My dogs stay out when I go on errands or out for the evening, but get locked up at night.

I’m very routine-oriented, so I’ll follow your pet’s feeding, exercise, and care schedule exactly as you request—whether in my home or yours. I make sure each animal feels secure, loved, and stress-free, with plenty of supervision, enrichment, and affection.
About: My veterinary assistant experience with small and large animals sets me apart as I keep a close eye on your animal’s health and well-being. I am not easily spooked, but I want your pet to receive the best care I can give. I am not a trainer, but I am comfortable dealing with some pets with behavioral issues. I want to create the safest and most comfortable environment for your pet, your sanity and myself! I currently work four days a week and have a three day weekend. I am looking to pet sit for people who are going on a short trip or need routine weekend care. I can be flexible with week nights, but it will need to be established well in advance. I am looking to house sit in the owners residence. My cats would not be happy to have any new comers to our family. I am very punctual with breakfast and dinner time, and I am typically one to spend time wherever the pet would like to whether that be indoors or outdoors!
“Ermelinda is truly amazing. Our skittish dog warmed up to her after the very first walk. The care instructions for our dog, Bella, was a laundry list and Ermelinda followed them to the letter. Your dogs will be in great hands with her. I highly recommend her services!”
About: I am a dog lover who owns 3 dogs. One pit bull mix, one Dashhound mix, and a pit bull puppy! I am also a foster home for rescued dogs through East Coast Canine Rescue. I have one dog who is very high energy and needs to play outside daily! I will kick a ball for him, and he runs for it with his toy in his mouth. I have part of my yard fenced in for pups to run around like crazy. I am a stay at home mom- my time is very flexible. We have two crates if necessary. Treats galore! My dogs are like family- We love on them like our children. Your dog will be treated like our own. We can give baths as well. Your dog will be very comfortable at my house. It will be a pleasure to have them. I have a very relaxed schedule that will cater to your dog. My dogs live like kings. They are cared for very well. Your dog will also be treated as family. They are able to go out whenever they want.

“Excellent care of my 2 dogs. This sitter provided daily communications with pictures, flexible scheduling, dog-friendly indoor and outdoor play settings. Judging from my dogs’ behavior when I brought them home, I could tell they actually ENJOYED their stay and received top notch care. Exceeded all my expectations!”
“As always Brittany is amazing with my very active Husky! He loves being with her and her family and gets plenty of love and attention. My pup feels right at home every time. He cant wait to go back for his next stay.”
“Dani is great with dogs. Our dog Hart spent the week there while we were on vacation. We got pictures and updates every day and he enjoyed his time there. Dani is conveniently located for us and very kind. Your dog will be in great hands!”
“As first time puppy parents and first time Rover users it was extremely difficult to leave our pup with anyone else. Suzanne made the entire process extremely easy and comfortable for us. From the booking and flexible arrangements to a slew of happy pictures of our puppy Eloise smiling and playing with her and her family made us feel extremely comfortable in our decision and allowed us the peace of mind to enjoy our getaway. We will not hesitate to use Suzanne again for any of our boarding needs in the future. Thank you Suzanne for loving up on our pup for us!”
“Dawn has watched my German Shepherd twice and is an excellent host. My dog always comes back tired and very happy and healthy! I can tell she takes great care of her and for that, I am thankful. Thanks Dawn! We look forward to seeing you again.”
“Saskia took excellent care of our dog while we were out of town for a week. We received daily pictures and updates. Saskia was great at reaching out and addressing any concerns promptly. We were thrilled with her care of our energetic pup and will not hesitate to book again. Thanks!”
“First time using Rover and first time in 10 years having a sitter outside of immediate family, we were so nervous. Samantha met us prior to and put us at ease. We had a wonderful experience having Samantha caring for our 2 boys while away! She sent us photos and little updates everyday and even had some great suggestions for us moving forward about a feeding time issue we were having.”
“My dog, Ramus, had the best time ever staying with James and Mallory. He was with them for three nights and I received pictures and text updates every day. I love how they just brought him into the fold of their family and included him in their daily life. They are definitely my pet sitters from now on!”
“This was Bodhi’s second stay with Katie and her family. They took wonderful care of him and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who will treat your pet with loving care and attention.”
“This is the first time we had to leave our dog with someone other than family. Kyla was very kind and understanding and sent me pictures and updates on Frankie during our time away. She made me feel comfortable leaving him in her care. I would highly recommend Kyla. Her young daughter also took a liking to Frankie and took very good care of him.”
“Another perfect stay with Debby! We now lovingly refer to a visit with Debby as a visit to Mookie's second home. As always, Debby sent lots of photos, videos, and snippets about the day to make sure we knew that Mookie was at his best. Debby is a gift to both the pet and the pet-parent, and we feel so fortunate to have made this connection.”
“Elizabeth took great care of my dog Hazel and sent a lot of pictures and updates. She also took her on nice walks and Hazel had plenty of outside time. She administered Hazel's medication each day as well. Overall, Elizabeth did a great job with my dog.”
“This was my first time using Rover/dog sitter and I was nervous leaving my two girls with strangers. After doing a meet and greet with the sitter I felt I made the right decision and was less nervous. I love the care they received with the sitter and their family. Daily updates, pictures and videos showed me just how happy my girls were. I will definitely book with Francis E and her family again, without any hesitation.”
“What a pleasure! Skyla was very welcoming and kind. This was my first time leaving my fur baby with someone and she definitely eased my worries. She was excellent and communicated regularly. She sent me photos and took amazing care of my Lila.”
“My dog Hank had a great stay with Sydney and her family! He doesn't get along with every dog, but he seemed to have quite a bit of fun with their little guy Knightley — despite a considerable difference in age and size! (Approx. 15 lbs. vs. 85 lbs.) Sydney was very communicative and gave me daily updates on how Hank was doing, along with pictures, for the week that we were gone. I would definitely recommend her for boarding!”
“Stevie was very happy during her stay. We loved that she had other dogs to play with and a big yard. Received updates and pictures often that gave us piece of mind. Will definitely be booking again. Thanks again Dana!”
“We were very nervous to leave our pup for a long weekend but he loved his stay! They were very loving with our little guy and he was right at home with them. Will definitely book with them again.”
