Recently left my puppy with Thelma. I was able to go on vacation without concerns for my pups well being. She took extra precautions to keep him safe by putting up extra barricades around her fence to prevent him from escaping. My pup loved playing with her dogs. i definitely will have her watch my dog again.

They kept us updated with regular pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. They were also very flexible with our drop-off and pick-up times, making everything so convenient. We are definitely boarding Cucu with them again! We’re so grateful for the wonderful care they provided, and we couldn’t recommend them more.

Jer was great! My dog was very content and comfortable with his stay which is saying alot since he had never been apart from us for any length of time before. I was very concerned as he has separation anxiety and can be quite needy at times. She handled him like a pro and sent us reg updates which eased my anxiety about leaving him. Hence I was able to fully enjoy my first real vaca in 8 yrs. Thank you so very much for making this possible. Highly recommend!!

Cynthia was great with my 1 1/2 year old Sheltie. She allowed us to meet her and her pup a couple of weeks before our vacation, to make sure we all were comfortable with each other. Drop off day was hard for us since our Sheltie is only 1.5 year’s old and a rescue, we didn’t want to stress her out too much. Cynthia has lots of experience with rescues and was quick to pick up on her needs. During the vacation she sent us many videos and pictures, which helped a great deal. On pick up day she sent us home with homemade treats, bully stick, and a freshly laundered dog bed. I will definitely use Rover and Cynthia again!!!!

As always, Nicole did a fabulous job. This time we were international and because Nicole was so trustworthy, professional, and outstanding in shorter visits in the past, we felt totally comfortable asking her to care for our senior cats for two weeks—they’re a handful as two need prescription diets and one was on medication. Nicole took excellent care of them. I’d trust her any time.

About: I grew up on a farm and ranch, caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. While living in South Carolina, I assisted with service dog and obedience training. Dogs have always been a part of my life, and I’ve cared for them throughout my entire adult years. I can’t wait to offer your pup a safe, loving environment while you’re away! Usually home all day Sat and Sunday. Mon - Friday I’m gone from about 9am to 12pm. Home for the rest of the day to keep your pups company, aside from life errands that are few and far between. Drop offs/Pick ups no later than 830pm. As of right now I can have one client at a time, Thank you. I have a 6 foot privacy fence and the front room is set up for your pup to stay in and there is a XXL crate and for smaller pups I have a large play pen and a canopy bed. I do have three dogs that are friendly, however my house is constructed to where I can keep everyone separated and comfortable.

My dog always has fun at KC's. Her goldens are so much fun that he can't help but want to play too! Despite his separation anxiety, he actually started to leave me several times on the 2nd day to go follow them!

About: From tiny pups to gentle giants (and the occasional sassy cat), I’ve been caring for furry friends for 15+ years. I pay special attention to senior pet diets and routines, so you can relax knowing they’re in experienced, loving hands. As a stay-at-home dad with two kids and one playful pup, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive, personalized care for your furry family member. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddle sessions, I’m here to accommodate your pet’s needs—and yours! I have a fully fenced-in yard and an energetic pup of my own, so your furry friend will have plenty of playtime and companionship! My two kids also love meeting new animals and are great at helping pets feel welcome and entertained. If needed, I’m happy to crate your pet for safety and comfort. I’m committed to providing a clean, loving, and secure environment where your pet will feel right at home. Feel free to reach out with any questions—your peace of mind is just as important as your pet’s happiness!

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. Around 5 years ago I got a few of my own. I have been around all types of animals from cats to Cane Corsos. I have never had any problem being around any type of animal regardless of size. I love going on walks. I normally stop by and feed my family's pets and make sure they are well taken care of. I have also trained puppies and have handled senior pets as well! Pet care is not something interrupts my daily or weekly routine. It is something that I actually prefer to do with my time. I love being able to help people with their fur babies while they have prior engagements and cannot be there at a certain time! I will follow all of your rules while inside your house. If you need your pup crated I can easily do that. I can also let them out in your fenced yard or take them out on a leash.

About: I have cared for cats for most of my life but 5 years ago my fiancé and I adopted my first dog. For the past 5 years, I’ve cared for my dog, Mary Jane, who has been my sweetest teacher in understanding dog behavior, routines, and communication. Through caring for her, I’ve gained hands-on experience with daily walking, feeding schedules, basic training reinforcement, administering simple medications, and creating a calm, consistent environment for a happy pup. I have also cared for many friends pets while they were away on vacation. I may be new to Rover, but I’m not new to being a responsible, attentive animal owner. Caring for animals is already woven into my daily rhythm. I work part-time with flexible hours, giving me plenty of space in my schedule for peaceful walks, playtime, and check-ins with pets. I’m used to creating a balanced routine around my own dog, and bringing that same calm, attentive energy to other pets feels completely natural. I am currently free to sit/walk any day of the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and familiar environment for them. I follow your routines exactly as you outline them — from feeding instructions to walk times to any training cues your dog is used to. I keep doors and gates secured, monitor their body language closely, and make sure they always have fresh water and a comfortable space to relax. Trust is extremely important to me, so I communicate clearly, send updates/photos, and treat your home with the same respect and care I treat your pet.

Sureya took my dog Corbin without a two hour notice and I was so thankful especially being away from home. Sureya took great care of Corbin and I will definitely use her again when near the area.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, my whole life, including my own. We had a senior dog that needed a point in his life to have diapers so we know how to medicate and take care of senior dogs also. I do work a part-time job very close to home. So if I need to come home or feel the need to let them out again, it’s flexible enough for me to leave if needed. I have two dogs so we have a fenced in yard and we also have a petitioned room with crates in the room, but my dogs only go in there if they want to rest. I do not crate my dogs, but you’re welcome to if that’s the routine for your dog.

I am also excellent with anxious pets and those who need a little extra care and love. I have a gentle voice and will always try to be aware of your pets' comfort level before approaching. I am currently in college, so I go to class various times during the week! Because of this, I may need to adjust arrival times depending on my class schedule and what days you need me for. This also means that I am good for vacations and other short-term jobs. I will work hard to provide a safe environment for all animals in accordance with guidelines set by my clients. For dogs, I prefer a fenced in yard, but will consider leashed walks depending on the size of your dog.

About: My love for pets started with our first pet,. Sparky. He was our first dog of three during my childhood. My most recent was a rescue pit/lab mix named loofah. It was bath product week at the shelter. :). It was unique for sure and we didn't have the heart to change it. She had a way of brightening the day and making it more fun. Always ready to cuddle or play. Sadly I didn't get her in the split but I check in on her when I get in the area. Current lease doesn't allow for that breed and since their the hardest to place i'm holding on for one or two soon. I'm the go to friend that happily house sits or keeps and eye on their 4 legged family members.

About: Hello, My name is Faith. I am a recent college graduate with double majors in animal science and animal ecology. I am a lifelong animal lover and have experience fostering puppies and living with/caring for family dogs and cats. I am also looking to become a veterinarian so I have lots of experience with care of animals, from rabbits to farm cats. I have 2 cats of my own that I love and appreciate as well as tons of experience with dogs. I am great at understanding animal body language and love big dogs. I am an athletic person who likes hiking and rock climbing so walking dogs is something I enjoy as well. I have plenty of time on my hands while working remotely and really like the joy I receive from caring for different animals with unique personalities. I hope to meet you and your furry friends soon! I work online so I can work anywhere with internet access, but I am available to work with your schedule. I have a lot of free time to care for furry friends. I care by feeding the pets and providing enrichment. I can do this by playing with the animal or giving them a puzzle. I like using puzzles with treats to get them more involved in play as well as using scratching pads with catnip for cats.

Jer was great! My dog was very content and comfortable with his stay which is saying alot since he had never been apart from us for any length of time before. I was very concerned as he has separation anxiety and can be quite needy at times. She handled him like a pro and sent us reg updates which eased my anxiety about leaving him. Hence I was able to fully enjoy my first real vaca in 8 yrs. Thank you so very much for making this possible. Highly recommend!!

Cynthia was great with my 1 1/2 year old Sheltie. She allowed us to meet her and her pup a couple of weeks before our vacation, to make sure we all were comfortable with each other. Drop off day was hard for us since our Sheltie is only 1.5 year’s old and a rescue, we didn’t want to stress her out too much. Cynthia has lots of experience with rescues and was quick to pick up on her needs. During the vacation she sent us many videos and pictures, which helped a great deal. On pick up day she sent us home with homemade treats, bully stick, and a freshly laundered dog bed. I will definitely use Rover and Cynthia again!!!!

Shereen was fabulous with Daisy. Her fur babies are adorable and Daisy loved having playmates despite her being so much larger than them. Shereen is a true pet lover and her home and caring nature reflects that. I plan to use her services again for Daisy.

Teresa is definitely one of a kind. She truly cared for my 7lb, 8 month old Yorkipoo like she was hers. My baby made friends and came home even more behaved than when I dropped her off and Teresa never raises her voice at your fur baby. My little princess was so happy with Teresa. Teresa sent videos and pictures, even if she is sitting for other pups while she has yours (which she will tell you up front if this is the case) she still spends one on one time with each pup multiple times a day. And get this, I called Teresa on the same day that I needed service because I was in a bit of a pickle and she accommodated me. She is super professional, her home is very clean and it doesn't smell of pets. Teresa is now our baby's permanent sitter. She is absolutely the best! This was my first time hiring Teresa and I am beyond impressed. She deserves a million stars.

Andrea always takes care of our Max like her own. He absolutely loves his stays. We are always at ease while we’re away and she sends daily updates, pictures and videos.

The fact that Courtney is a vet was one of the reasons I reached out to see if she was able to watch Sunny for a weekend while I was out of town due to how anxious she can get. Let me tell you, she did not disappoint. During the meet and greet, she asked about emergency vet info and offered her office as an option for urgent but non-emergency situations since I don’t have a primary emergency vet. She was aware of Sunny’s needs while she was there. Courtney also kept great communication and sent lots of videos and pics during her stay. I would 10/10 recommend her and will definitely be booking services with her again when the time comes!

Everything went well with my dog's overnight stay. She got her walks and Sandra communicated with me throughout her stay with photos. Much appreciated Sandra! Hope to use your services again. Lisa H.

About: I’ve served in the military for over 17 yrs and through out my career I taken care of friends, co-workers, and bosses dogs while they went on vacation or were deployed. I have watched dogs whether it’s in their home or my own and I’ve enjoyed sharing my home with them. I am currently a stay at home dad to an 7 month old so there is a child in the house and enjoying being outside. I have a moderate sized back yard that can accommodate large breeds and pets. I pick up after my own dogs and pets and regularly do so.
