“Kathryn and Jeremy took excellent care of our dog Max while we were away for a week. From our first meeting with them, it was clear that they had experience taking care of dogs and were very understanding and knowledgable about our dogs unique care needs. We felt so comfortable leaving Max with them and when we picked him up it was clear he LOVED his time there and can't wait to see them again! Thank you Kathryn and Jeremy for taking such great care of Max!”
“Alan & Luis are always great with Tyson. They welcome him into their home like he was part of their family. They are flexible and I always feel confident Tyson is getting the best care when we are away.”
“Thank you so much for taking such good care of Cotton. Christle did a wonderful job and kept me in the loop throughout the day. I truly appreciate her effort and will definitely ask for her help again whenever I need coverage.”
“Amazing sitter on Rover and such a nice guy, he was able to accommodate my last-minute request and took great care of my puppy cheri. I would highly recommend him.”
“Haoran was absolutely incredible with our two dogs, Molly and Olive! From start to finish, she went above and beyond with their care. She kept us consistently updated with thoughtful check-ins and photos, which gave us total peace of mind. It was so clear how much she genuinely loves and cares for dogs—Molly and Olive were happy, comfortable, and clearly well loved the entire time. We feel incredibly lucky to have found Haoran and would not hesitate for a second to book with her again. Highest recommendation!”
“Triba was wonderful and so professional to work with! We really appreciate how she handled our dog with separation anxiety - she made him (and us) feel comfortable with a day-long boarding.”
“Sean and Jill were great! They helped me very last minute and although I have a semi aggressive dog, they were very welcoming and not discouraged at all. Their house is perfect for dogs as they have a small doggy door. My dog followed Sean right into his house upon seeing him outside so he must have felt a good vibe haha. They also responded very quickly to messages and offered to feed him the same food they feed their dogs. Would 100% recommend them!!!”
“Jennifer and Inam were such great caretakers! I had a last minute trip for work and they were so flexible and accommodating on very short notice. I interacted mostly with Jennifer and I could tell how much love and care she pours into all the dogs. My pup was so sad to see her leave when it was time to go! Thank you for taking such great care of Olivia!!”
“Brody loved his stay. He had ample time to run around with other dogs in the spacious backyard. We also received photos and videos each day to show how much fun he was having. We will definitely book here again!”
“Careen was wonderful with our senior dog and he loved her just as much as she loved him! She gave him lots of love and attention- I could tell he was very well cared for while we were away. We got lots of pictures and updates so I was completely at ease. We can’t wait to have Careen watch Shadow again!”
“My buddy seemed very happy during his visit He also adjusted very easily when he got home very relaxed. A great experience for him I feel He will go there next time when needed.”
“Noel and his family did a fantastic job with our puppy! They are well equipped and their our boy had a blast in their yard! Noel was amazing with sending updates and pictures. I would highly recommend!”
“Ricky was excellent! He took care of my 85 pound Hound/ Husky. I always am a bit concerned when leaving my dog with someone but when I need to do it again, Ricky will be the first person I contact.”

About: Ive been a dog owner all my life and have pet sat for many family and friends. Young or old, I love dogs and am ready to take care of your furry companion like they were one of my own.

“Katie was wonderful. This was short notice and she could not have been more accommodating. Tully had a great time playing with the other pups and came home happy and exhausted. I highly recommend Katie.”
“Rumi was great! From the moment I arrived she was so sweet and I could tell I had found the right place to leave my little guy. She has a large fenced in yard that my pup was able to run in safely. I received lots of picture and video updates through out the day and he always looked like he was smiling 😊. Every vitamin and food regimen were followed to a T. Rumi will definitely be our go to! This was my first experience with Rover, but I will definitely not be looking elsewhere. Thank you so much Rumi, you made Sky's stay so joyous and peaceful!”

“We couldn’t have been happier with Alex caring for our two kitties. She took great care of our cats and really made an effort to make a connection with each of them. She stayed in communication with us daily while we were away and even sent pictures. We have already rebooked her for our next trip!”
“Joanna took care of our cat over the last week and was awesome! She sent us lots of pictures and Dorito warmed up to her super quickly! She was also very respectful of our house. Would 100% re-book with her!”
About: I have taken care of animals for 15 years and I am very passionate about making animals feel safe, comfortable and loved. I do consider myself a “cat lady” as I grew up with serval cats, along with 1 dog. I currently have 1 cat and she is my soul cat through and through. I give medication, deep-clean litter boxes, play with you pets and overall make sure your pet feels at ease while you’re away.
“Katie was fantastic! She was super friendly when she came by for a meet and greet, and sent great updates and pics each time she dropped in on our cats. We’d definitely book again!”
About: While my experience is mostly with seniors, I love and have experience with all age ranges. I've also cared for dogs that have had some medical issues and am super attentive to all my fur babies. I currently work full-time, but my hours are extremely flexible. I am in office Thurs-Sun, but my work day can end anywhere between 8am & 3pm. If I have pets in my home, I do provide a bed, feeding bowls, snacks, toys, and a lot of affection. I have a private park across the street as well as a fenced in backyard, depending on what the needs are. I am also located near Bushnell Park in case some extra running around is needed. I am good at giving medicine, if need be.

“This was our second time hiring Marcea and she was fantastic again! She sent detailed updates and photos of my rabbit and told me about his behavior. I had also left a mess of the pet food in my rush out the door, and she cleaned it up which was unnecessary and extra helpful of her! Definitely recommend her for your pets.”
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was 10 years old, and I learned early on that pets are truly part of the family. Growing up, my mom regularly opened our home for dog sitting, and I’ve been helping care for pets alongside her for over five years. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, playtime, and giving dogs the attention and companionship they need to feel comfortable and happy while their owners are away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for like they’re my own pets. Pet care fits well into my routine because I’m open and flexible with making time for the animals I care for. I currently work part time, which gives me availability to schedule walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and quality time with pets throughout the week. I enjoy spending time with animals, so I’m happy to adjust my routine to make sure they feel cared for, comfortable, and not alone while their owners are away. I care for every pet like they’re part of the family because that’s how I’ve always treated my own dogs. My pets are truly my babies, and I love spending time with them, whether that’s playing, relaxing together, or just keeping them company. Now that my dogs are seniors, they enjoy lounging in the sun, relaxing around the house, and spending time with their people and companions. When dogs stay in our home for boarding, we treat them like they’re our own pets. They get lots of attention, love, companionship, walks, and time to relax and feel comfortable. They spend time with our dogs, lounge around together, and are never made to feel alone. We create a calm, loving environment where pets can feel safe and at home — many even sleep on our beds because we want them to feel as comfortable and cared for as possible while their owners are away.
“There are so many things I could say about Mariah, but it still wouldn’t be enough. She bailed us out after a one day notice. I had to go to work and she took care of our beautiful puppy teddy. He was happy having fun running around and he really enjoys seeing other people. Teddy wasn’t feeling good, yet she wrote us a card saying he’s a lot better and she just went beyond all of our expectations. If you are looking for a sitter who goes above and beyond, look no further than Mariah. We will be using her again!”
About: Growing up I’ve had either a dog , cat , fish or bird. Once I had all four at once ! My love for my fur family grew with my age & now I’m extending the love from my fur family to yours ! <3

“Janelle is amazing, i got stuck without my dog care for me dog John late on a Sunday evening, I sent Janelle a request upon learning of my dilemma. Janelle responded and i was able to deliver John the next morning. My John loves Janelle and her family and looks forward to his stay with her. Janelle service is awesome and is the only person that I trust John with. Janelle is the best!”
About: I grew up surrounded by animals, and I've always had the responsibility of taking care of them. I've cared for family dogs and I help my daughter with the care of dogs and cats. I like to make dogs feel at home. I don't work, I'm always at home, and if I have to go out I always take the dog with me; it gives me time to take him out to do his business, play with him, and he always feels accompanied. I live in an apartment with a garden where they can relieve themselves and a gated parking area, but I still prefer taking them to the park to walk and play.
“Debra was a wonderful sitter for TJ. She sent frequent updates, photos and videos. TJ loved her dog Max. I’m always know if TJ has had a good day with plenty of exercise by the way he crashes at night. Thank you Debra and Max for a wonderful day care day for our TJ.”
“Chris was very accommodating when it came to pick up and drop off time. We did a day boarding with Chris for my dog, Ava, and she loved hanging out with Chris. Will book Chris again!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life, and I currently have a dog back in Costa Rica who has a special condition and uses a wheelchair. Caring for him has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I’ve learned to adapt to his unique needs and rhythm, provide extra support when necessary, and ensure he feels safe, comfortable, and loved at all times. This experience has taught me patience, creativity, and a deep understanding of how every pet has their own personality and pace. From energetic pups to those with special needs, I know how to adjust activities, offer affection, and create a stress-free, happy environment. My goal is always to make each dog feel valued, cared for, and truly at home while in my care. Hi! I’m available throughout the week, depending on the service you need. I usually offer dog walks from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM, and I’m flexible to adjust to your schedule whenever possible. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. Feel free to message me so we can discuss details and find a plan that works for both of us. 🐾 I live in an apartment, with a small space, however the complex has a dog park and a large green area. It is a calm and quiet place
“Lisa was the best dog sitter. She was friendly, kind, and communicative. She helped us out so last minute. She took great care of our little Hunter. This was my first time using rover and I would definitely recommend Lisa to anyone. She responded to my concerned mom texts and sent pics of our pup hanging out outside. Hunter was smiling, happy, and seemed worn out after his stay with Lisa. We cannot thank her enough for all her help. Thank you so much Lisa!!!!! ?”
About: If you’re looking for a massive dog lover to look after your fur baby, I’m your person! I have tons of experience with all kinds of breeds from tiny couch potatoes to giant balls of energy. I do everything from quick daily walks, drop ins, or full overnight stays. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and I will always treat your pet like they're my own. I recently finished my BFA and I am currently on the job hunt, so my schedule is super open! I love the outdoors and try to get out as much as I can so for doggos we will be getting lots of exercise, dog sitting and walking is exciting for me because it gives me more reason to get outside! I am a designer so when I am working, generally thats indoors so kittys would get tons of company from me! I wakeup early in the morning so I would be able to do the early morning feedings and walks. I also wind down at night on the earlier side, just reading or watching tv, so your animal would have a peaceful nighttime experience with flexibility for late night walks if it is desired by the dog. Whether I am hosting your pet in my home or visiting yours, my top priority is maintaining a consistent and safe routine that makes them feel secure. I am lucky to live right by multiple local parks and a dog park, so I can easily incorporate social time and outdoor play into our daily schedule, or my friend has a fenced in yard she has approved I would be able to use for playtime if your dog doesn't get along with other dogs. For dogs who love to explore, I’m a big fan of walks especially through the beautiful trails around Savannah. I think it’s the perfect way to get plenty of fresh air and exercise! I know most cats would stay in their own space as they are more of home bodies, but in any space, I will treat your kitty as my own!
“Nazim is fantastic! He is professional, communicative, and calm. My dog Duke liked Nazim and the other dogs right away. The big fenced back yard and dog-friendly home made for a perfect doggie daycare experience. I appreciated receiving photos throughout the day, and a happy dog at pickup time. Highly recommend!”

About: Lifelong animal lover with 7+ years caring for my own 2 dogs, along trusted experience with friends and family’s pets. I make sure your pet feels loved, comfortable, and cared for at all times. I’m currently working part-time, so I have a lot of availability throughout the week. I love morning walks because they get me up to start my day while also being active. As well as mid-day and evening walks allow me to take a break from any tasks and get outside in the sun while having some fun! Whether I’m visiting your home or walking your pup, my goal is to keep them happy, safe, and comfortable. For walks, I make they get plenty of fresh air, exercise, a potty break, and time to sniff and explore while keeping a close eye. During home visits, I’ll refresh their water, feed them, give potty breaks and spend quality time. I’ll also follow any instructions you leave for me and always treat your home with respect.
“Alex was available on short notice (<24 hours) to come and walk a dog that we are fostering who has separation anxiety so that we could run to overlapping appointments without causing him distress. We really appreciate it!! And Rusty seemed to do well on the walk.”
“I could not recommend Jillian enough! We have an elderly dog who requires extra attention, and Jillian provides exemplary care. If you have any reservations about leaving your pets with someone, rest assured that they will be well cared for under her supervision. I wouldn’t trust Roscoe with anyone else!”
“Priscilla saved the day accepting my request at very short notice. I had a 12 hour shift to work and no coverage for Louis. Additionally, I realized at the end of that 12 hour shift that I had no coverage for the next two days due (in no small part to a massive house move that had just occurred). Again, Priscilla came to the rescue and helped me for the next two days. She is a great communicator and a clearly dedicated professional.”
About: I’ve cared for my three dogs since I was six years old. Growing up with them, I took responsibility for walking them, feeding them, and giving them their medication and baths. I also made sure they had plenty of playtime. I took care of them from their puppy years to their senior years. I also used to watch my cousin’s dog often. I am working part-time but my hours are flexible. I am available any time on the weekends. And can do different times throughout the weekdays depending on the schedule of my full-time job. I follow the owner’s instructions very well and keep them updated on how their furry friend is doing. My goal is always to ensure pets feel happy, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away.

Mostly open during the day when people are at work I am home or running errands. I can give the care and attention your fur baby needs in your home or mine. 💗 I do have my own baby, but that doesn’t take away from how much love I can give yours. I can assure you my cat is shy but friendly and we will introduce them before any long or short term stay if you choose the option of pet care in my home.

“Leah was so reliable and a big help to my elderly mom who was unable to walk my dog Zoey herself. Even when her summer plans changed, she didn't cancel and traveled a farther distance to walk Zoey twice/day.”
About: At home I've been taking care of Ramsey, my small, high-energy, dog for almost 9 years. In these 9 years I've gained a larger a sense of responsibility and my love for animals has grown tremendously. I know how to communicate with dogs and read dog body language in order to cater to their needs and give them best care. As a recent graduate, I have more flexibility in my schedule, I can dedicate ample time to caring for my pets. This includes feeding, grooming, walking, and spending quality time with them to ensure their well-being and happiness. Engaging in activities like playing, training, and companionship not only enriches their lives but also brings a sense of purpose to my day. While job hunting, I find solace and a sense of responsibility in taking care of my pets, creating a positive and fulfilling routine amidst my current situation. At home I make sure my dog cannot access anything that can harm him. I close doors to the bathroom so he can’t access the trash can and I put gates up around the house to areas he can’t be in. During walks I am very careful and aware of my surroundings. If I walk at night, I walk in a well lit area with a few friends.
“Vanessa has been great for our high-energy puppy, Ladybird! With enthusiasm and patience, she tackles walks like a pro, clearly adoring dogs and taking time to connect with them. Vanessa goes above and beyond, keeping us updated with photos and continuous communication giving us total peace of mind. If you need top-notch dog care, look no further than Vanessa!”

“Careen was wonderful with our senior dog and he loved her just as much as she loved him! She gave him lots of love and attention- I could tell he was very well cared for while we were away. We got lots of pictures and updates so I was completely at ease. We can’t wait to have Careen watch Shadow again!”
“Noel and his family did a fantastic job with our puppy! They are well equipped and their our boy had a blast in their yard! Noel was amazing with sending updates and pictures. I would highly recommend!”
“Ricky was excellent! He took care of my 85 pound Hound/ Husky. I always am a bit concerned when leaving my dog with someone but when I need to do it again, Ricky will be the first person I contact.”
About: Your dog is more than a pet — they’re family. We provide a warm, loving, and secure environment where your furry friend feels safe, happy, and cared for. Whether you’re away for a day or a week, you can rest easy knowing your dog is in trusted hands, getting belly rubs, playtime, and the personal attention they deserve. Because peace of mind isn’t a luxury — it’s a promise. Consider me as your on-call pet sitter. I have currently moved to California all the way from the east coast. Whenever you need me, I’m here ! How I Care for Pets in Your Home – With Safety, Trust, and Comfort at the Heart of It All When I care for your pets, whether I’m house sitting, walking them, or simply dropping in, their safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has a unique routine, personality, and needs — and I take the time to learn and follow your instructions closely to ensure they feel secure and loved in your absence. In your home, I maintain a calm, respectful presence, keeping your pet’s environment clean, stress-free, and familiar. I provide regular walks, playtime, feeding, medication (if needed), and gentle companionship, always with an eye on their behavior and well-being. For drop-ins and walks, I show up reliably and treat your pet like my own — keeping them on safe routes, away from hazards, and paying close attention to their body language and comfort. I always prioritize secure leash handling, water breaks, and positive reinforcement. Your trust means everything to me, and I care for your pets and home with professionalism, love, and integrity.
About: Ive been a dog owner all my life and have pet sat for many family and friends. Young or old, I love dogs and am ready to take care of your furry companion like they were one of my own. I am currently pet sitting full time, so I can watch your pet throughout the week or weekends as needed. Just walks are available throughout the day too. I have a fenced in back yard, as well as a medium sized crate for crating if needed. I currently don't have any pets of my own, but plenty of toys an activities for a fun doggy day! I also live close by a few parks and dog parks that can provide a nice field trip.
“Katie was wonderful. This was short notice and she could not have been more accommodating. Tully had a great time playing with the other pups and came home happy and exhausted. I highly recommend Katie.”
“Tiffani [and her family] were such a wonderful fit for my precious Madison. Madison has never stayed any place overnight (aside from home), and my sister and I were extremely nervous to leave her anywhere- when family members were not an option. We went away for 8 nights and needed to ensure Madison was in great hands and loving hearts. Tiffani and her family went above and beyond to not only care for Madison, but make her feel like family. Wow! We were amazed! Tiffani sent lots of wonderful pictures/videos throughout the week and it helped us get through the week being away from Madison. Madison is sensitive and has separation anxiety, but she was loved so much during her week with Tiffani that we could literally see her comfort level blossom each day as more and more pictures were sent. My sister and I wondered if Madison would even want to come home, after such a fun week with cuddles upon cuddles upon cuddles. ???? We we’re so thankful, grateful and satisfied with our decision. Also, we were thrilled that Madison got daily walks each day and had playtime with the kids and (her new Rover lab sister) Mia. ? (Tiff has amazing kids by the way, who are guaranteed to smother your dog in love & giggles). When we went to pick up Madison, she didn’t recognize us and barked because she became so attached to Tiffani and family (haha!- great sign), and she was exhausted from having an amazing week. Now my sister and I only feel bad that Madison had to leave a place she fell so in love with, enjoyed, and where people loved her. That’s the impression Tiffani left on us and Madison. We truly couldn’t have asked for anything more. Tiffani was very tuned in to our Madison. Oh! And, even with us being out of country the communication was wonderful and consistent- every single day. We will absolutely book with her again if we need and she’s available. We are so grateful to have found her. ????”
“Thank you so much for your patience with Flash and making him feel comfortable in your home. I really appreciated that you were able to watch him while I was out of town.”
“Anita was responsive, courteous and very pleasant. It was my first time boarding our 6 month old puppy (Moose) so naturally I was a bit nervous beforehand. Anita did a lot to reassure me during Moose's stay and I was able to communicate with her regularly. Moose came back happy and tired after spending time with Anita and her family. I would definitely recommend Anita to anyone looking for a welcoming environment for their dog!”
“Katie is a friendly person. She likes dogs. We boarded our 5 months puppy with her, and it looks like she took good care of our dog. We shall board our dog with her again, and we recommend her to other guests.”
“Maria took great care of my two dogs. She sent lots of pictures and was very responsive by text. She has a large fenced in yard for the dogs to play and get plenty of fresh air. My dogs were well taken care of while I went to visit family for a week. I hope to book her in the future.”
“So after booking twice with Trenton I feel comfortable with leaving my dog with someone like him and I would definitely recommend leaving your pet with him. He plays with my dog sends pictures and videos and my dog seems to love going over there 🥰 I have a big dog so trusting someone with my big baby was a lot for me but I’m glad I picked Trenton ‼️ BOOK WITH HIM 💪🏾”
“Wendy is absolutely wonderful. I have a special needs dog who is extremely anxious and also incontinent, and she has been incredibly patient, kind, and accommodating every step of the way. This was my first time using Rover for boarding, and Wendy made the experience so much easier—always quick to respond and understanding of all my concerns. She truly takes the time to get to know my dog’s needs and never makes me feel like any request is too much. I fully trust her with my dog and highly recommend her to anyone looking for compassionate and reliable care.”
