“Crystal is amazing! My dog had a wonderful time with her. Very good at keeping me updated with pictures. I would definitely recommend her and I will be requesting her again.”
“Kendra was amazing and I had great peace of mind knowing my dog was in wonderful hands. Communication was stellar: I got updates and multiple photos every day, and it was awesome to hear of his adventures while I was out of town. I recommend Kendra to anyone looking for a thoughtful, caring pet sitter and I for sure be back as a returning client.”
“Easy communication and very flexible. Lindsey even picked up my dogs. I received photos and they were having a great time. I also appreciate how quickly she responded to my messages. Will be coming back!”
“I told Christine that I had an issue with Benny marking and she had a solution. She is regimented and very thoughtful. Benny also received a grooming from Christine because she happens to also be a 12 year veteran groomer! In addition to his training while he was at Christine’s home he came back clean and happy! She sent photos that reminded me of homeward bound when Benny went in the yard with the other dog friends. Christine is a compassionate woman and has a loving and safe home for the pups. 1000% rebooking.”
“She was able to take my dog on short notice and took great care of him. She responded quickly to messages and kept me updated, which I really appreciated. Thank you!!”

“Christopher was very easy to communicate with and sent photos of my dogs throughout the week. He let me know when one of them didn’t seem to be eating normally and he was confident in handling it. My dogs came back happy and without issues.”
“Amazing people! We did a meet and greet and just talking to them within the first 5 minutes there we knew our pup would be taken care of with lots of love and knowledge. Chloe had a great stay and she even had moments where she didn’t act like herself and they took care of her very while. Definitely will book with them again for the future! 😊”
“Alyssa and her husband provided excellent care to my pups! She was very responsive and sent routine updates with photos. She ensured my dogs were comfortable and felt at home. I wish I had found her services sooner and I will absolutely be using them again!”

“She took Legend at a last minute request with no issues. She kept me updated with messages and photos. Legend was good with her and I will definitely use her again.”

“Mary was phenomenal to say the least. This was my first time using Rover so I was a little nervous. She was so kind to share her home with our dog. She showed him constant love and attention and sent regular updates to me. She even sent him home with some extra toys! Selfishly I wish I could keep her on retainer if I could. Lol but I will absolutely rebook for my next trip! I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter!”
About: I worked in the dog grooming industry for 20 years. I've bathed and walked every kind of dog! I love animals and at my age walking is all I'm up for now lol I'm retired but still need the love of a dog. The variety I had at the grooming shop has left me wanted it again. I have 2 small older dogs whom I've had since they we're puppies. But they sleep a lot and aren't up to walking anymore... So this is a happy alternative for me. I'm a strong 68 yr old woman who would take great care in walking your dog 😊

“Jamilla took excellent care of my two kittens. I can tell she truly cares about animals and goes above and beyond to make sure they are comfortable and safe.”
“Allison is awesome, this was my first time using Rover and my expectations were exceeded. I knew my pet would be in good hands, I trust her and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her services to anyone looking :)”
“I was very satisfied with Amy. She came before the stay so both my cat and I could become acquainted and review house access. She and my cat were immediate friends. She sent me pictures each day and we communicated by text and email. My house looked better when I returned than when I left. She is very kind and caring and I would recommend her without any qualms.”
“Sarah did a phenomenal job!!! She is such a kind soul. This is my first time ever using a service like this and I was not disappointed with her. I immediately booked her again for next month. I see why she has such high review numbers.”
“This turned out to be the best service ever. Erika was amazing and I hope she'll become a regular for Scout. I unintentionally became the sole responsible human to a neighbors cat. I believe she's now needing a permanent home. I hadn't planned for this as we are retired and plan to travel. Finally true empty nesters. We kept Scout inside for our first trip with no clue how she'd do, but daily visits were perfect. We have decided to keep Scout. ☺️”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs most of my life and have lived with multiple cat owners as well. I feel like pets like my calm and loving demeanor 😊 I enjoy the flexibility this profession allows and I love the outdoors. If your pet wants a long walk in the sun or just needs to stretch its legs in the backyard I’m down for either! 😁 I feel as though my laid back demeanor is great for working with animals and even the pickiest cats have fallen for me. I’m great at reading the body language of animals and know when they want a belly rub or when they want me to sit six feet away.
“Kristie is awesome! She followed all the instructions I left, took great care of my shy little cat, and even kept me updated with friendly messages. I felt super confident leaving Mia in her care and would absolutely trust her again!”
“What a great first experience. i absolutely loved the daily pictures and notes. Even our feral kitties outside and our plants were well taken care of. And so timely each day giving our oldest cat her meds. Will definitely book again when we plan to be away.”
“Kenneth gave my pup plenty of love, cleaned up after an unfortunate accident (Puppyhood! Gotta love it), and sent lots of cute photos to make us feel comfortable. He took great care of her during his multiple visits today and he shows great care and love for other’s animals!”
About: I have a lifetime full of experience! Animals are my love & my passion! I ❤️ ALL my fur babies, especially my household of 3 animals! I grew up around animals and I know how important they are to your family. I also just love being around different pets and loving on them! I’m on a great schedule with my pets & I’d love to be able to help your family with your pets’ schedules & needs as well! I treat every animal like my own. With lots of love but also mutual respect & some discipline! Working with animals is a passion of mine & I hope I get the pleasure to work with your fur babies!
“There’s a reason Evan has a perfect rating. He was able to take care of my cat with only 12 hours notice. It was an unexpected/emergency trip so there was no advanced planning but Evan rolled with it, found everything - food, litter, the house key (!) It really was last minute. Evan even loaded and ran the dishwasher for us so that we didn’t walk into a disaster Highly recommend Evan!”
“Steven did a great job communicating with me before, after and during the visit. He was very patient with my old boy,Domino giving me great peace of mind. Will definitely book Steven again when the need arises.”
“Jordan took amazing care of my dogs after I asked her at the last minute. She was responsive, followed all of my instructions, and sent lots of updates and pictures. I highly recommend her and would definitely ask her to take care of my pets again.”
“Sidnee is reliable and amazing with my girl. Follows instructions/requests to a T! The peace of mind knowing that Sidnee is taking care of my baby is while I travel is priceless. I am a repeat customer and will be using Sidnee in the future. If you want a dependable, responsible, knowledgeable, kind, and friendly pet sitter SIDNEE IS YOUR GIRL! We appreciate you so much 💕💕”

“Beverly was amazing. She responded straightaway to take my girl so we could go to Cumberland Island for the day. Tinker came home happy and tired. Thanks Beverly! This was my first time using Rover and it was amazing.”
“I needed a sitter extremely last minute for Butters (the day camp I originally booked was not able to accommodate him since he’s recovering from TPLO surgery) and Lesley responded ASAP. She was so caring and made sure he was comfortable with plenty of potty walks and pets! She also sent lots of updates and photos of how Butters was settling in. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, calm, loving home-away-from-home place for their pup while away.”
“Awesome sitter. Very attentive and loving with our fur baby. She sent photos through out his stay. I will definitely use her again. I highly recommend.”
About: I grew up on a farm, so I have spent most of my life caring for pets. I currently own one dog named Mackey. I would love the opportunity to care for your pet and give them the attention they need. Please Note: I do not accept pets that are not crate trained and potty trained. I work from home so my schedule is flexible and I can use that opportunity to provide plenty of walks and breaks as needed for your pet. Our normal walks occur twice a day in the morning and in the evening with intermittent outside breaks throughout the day. My current dog is indoors. All pets staying at my home will be indoors with A/C and access to plenty of water, food and toys.
About: What makes me different from other sitters is the genuine love and care I have for animals. I’ve had pets my entire life, from cats to dogs, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve also rescued several lost animals and helped reunite them with their owners, which shows how deeply I care about their safety and well-being. I understand that every pet has their own personality, needs, and comfort level, and I always do my best to make them feel safe, loved, and cared for like family. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I’m home all day and have the time and flexibility to give pets the care and attention they deserve. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of love throughout the day. Since I’m home often, pets will have plenty of supervision and won’t be left alone for long periods. When you book with me, you can expect a safe, caring, and comfortable environment where your pet will be treated like family. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved from the moment they arrive. Since I’m home all day, pets will have plenty of supervision, attention, and care throughout the day. I make sure they have regular potty breaks, playtime, fresh water, feeding on their normal schedule, and a calm environment where they can relax. I also understand that every pet is different, so I do my best to follow each owner’s instructions and keep their routine as close to normal as possible. My goal is to make your pet feel at home and cared for like family while you’re away.
About: Big Star Pet Care was started in memorial of our best friend of nearly 10 years, a rescue pitbull who was our Biggest Star. That’s why we give everyone our Big Star Promise— to treat your animals like they are their own Big Star. I've taken care of many animals, from cats & dogs, to rodents, reptiles, birds and more. This makes my experience in animal care varied and diverse. I am comfortable with all sizes of pet and breed, as well as many different temperaments. We are privately insured with pet care professional insurance (including vet coverage)— for the utmost safety of your loved ones, so that you can rest at ease while away. We are always learning new ways to expand what we can offer to our clients. We strive to follow instructions left by the pet owner and always send plenty of photos and updates. I am comfortable giving baths and can administer oral medication if needed. Thank you for considering Big Star Pet Services, I look forward to meeting you and your best friend(s). As a wife and wife team, your care will be carried out by either of us or both of us— but you can ensure top quality care regardless of who is providing it. Walks and drop ins before 8am and after 5pm are often attended by Gabrielle, while housesits are generally carried out by Mary due to Gabrielle’s full time position. Boarding care is handled by both parties. Most messages are responded to by Mary. Mary does have a standing M-F 3 hour babysitting gig from 1-4, though it often ends early. We try to be flexible and accept most bookings, including emergency last minute bookings. We offer a number of services; however, we do not accepts pets from more than one family at a time during boardings so that we can ensure the utmost attention, care and safety of your furry friends. We live in a large townhouse with a fully fenced backyard, 3 cats who keep mostly to themselves but may befriend gentler dogs and a 6 month old puppy who is generally well behaved and in training. We have no children or other people living in the home. We can create separated spaces if necessary, while still ensuring your furry friend gets the care and attention they deserve, while in a comfortable space for them. Mary is dog and cat CPR/First Aid certified through the American Red Cross. We have experience with animals who have special dietary, medication and medical related needs.
“I was looking for day care very last minute and Sheena was so kind to be available for us. My pup had a great experience and brought a nice doggy bag home. Highly recommend!!”
“Absolutely had to give Chyna 5 stars! Rocky was obviously very well taken care of! Chyna kept us updated with messages, pictures, and videos. Rocky got fed on time, played with, and even watched a movie while getting lots of cuddles! We are so happy with Chyna and her services and will most definitely be booking again! She is the best!”
“Laura was great. I was nervous about leaving Bella and she assured me she would be fine. Bella warmed right up and they had a great first day. I received pictures and videos of how Bella was doing throughout the day.”
“2nd time with Nadia and as expected did not disappoint. Benji seemed happy and she communicated with us consistently. Also provided plenty of pictures. Will reach out to her again when we need our pup taken care of.”

“AMAZING SERVICE! Randy and Mimi took care of our dog like he was their own. He had such a good time and was able to socialize and meet new dogs. We would recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing doggy day care/boarding for their dog!”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, and I started pet sitting as a teenager just wanting to help people out. Over time, I realized how much I genuinely loved this work, and it naturally grew into my full time commitment. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Including seniors and special needs pets who need a little extra patience and comfort. I focus on understanding what each pet needs to feel safe, relaxed, and loved while they’re with me. For boarding, I don’t have a yard, but I make up for it with plenty of walks, park visits, supervised play, and fun treat games with my own pets so everyone stays happy, enriched, and engaged. Pet care is my main job, so it’s a big part of my everyday life. I plan my days around the pets I’m caring for, which keeps my schedule flexible and easy to work with. This lets me give each pet the time and attention they’re used to while staying available for my clients when they need me. I offer pet care both in my home and in your home, always keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. In my home, pets will recieve plenty of attention, playtime, and regular updates. I have a very friendly dog and cat who love new friends to keep your pup company. But if cats aren't your pups style, he has his own section of his house. When I’m in your home, I follow your pet’s usual schedule, handle walks, meals, and give lots of love and interaction. I can also manage small home tasks during housesitting and provide medication if needed.
“Amazing dog sitter. My dog receives love and attention with Kristall and she enjoys the company of her dog also. She always has a great time. Thank you for all that you do!”
About: What sets me apart from many sitters is my lifelong experience with animals and my ability to genuinely connect with them quickly — especially pets who may be anxious, shy, older, highly attached to their owners, or simply used to lots of companionship and attention. Over the years, I’ve helped care for foster litters of puppies and kittens requiring around-the-clock feeding, monitoring, and weight tracking alongside my best friend, who is a veterinarian. I also have veterinary technician and shelter experience, along with hands-on experience caring for senior pets, administering medications, reinforcing basic puppy training, and supporting animals with special routines, anxieties, or medical needs. I’m currently working with one of my own dogs in service dog training, and I’m also a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) who previously worked with pre-K children with autism using Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. Both experiences have strengthened my understanding of behavioral reinforcement, nonverbal communication, patience, routine, trust-building, and adapting to different personalities and emotional needs. In many ways, both children and animals communicate heavily through energy, body language, consistency, and feeling emotionally safe, and I’ve found those skills help me connect especially well with animals of all temperaments. I’m also an avid walker and love spending time outdoors, taking long walks through the beautiful Riverside and Avondale neighborhoods, local parks, and nearby green spaces — especially when the weather cools down a bit. For more active dogs, I genuinely enjoy playtime, walks, fetch, and engagement throughout the day, while calmer pets usually find me just as happy to provide cuddles, companionship, and a peaceful environment. Because I operate my design company remotely and on my own schedule, I’m often able to spend extended time in the home providing companionship, supervision, structure, affection, and a calming presence throughout the day and overnight — not just quick drop-ins. I truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and creating an environment where they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and relaxed while their owners are away. Because I own and operate my own boutique design firm, my schedule is highly flexible and allows me to work remotely from anywhere with a reliable internet connection. I’m also involved in tween mentorship and creative consulting, both of which I manage on my own schedule, making it easy for me to prioritize the needs and routines of the pets in my care. I’m naturally both an early riser and a night owl, so I’m available for early morning feedings and walks, late-night potty breaks, overnight companionship, medication schedules, and pets who simply feel more secure having someone nearby throughout the day and evening. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy the companionship, structure, and calm presence animals bring. Whether I’m working quietly from my laptop while keeping your pet company, taking breaks for walks and playtime, or providing attentive overnight care, I’m able to give pets far more presence and consistency than many traditional sitters with rigid work schedules. Safety, trust, and creating a calm environment are extremely important to me, whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home. I have two friendly small dogs and cats of my own, so pets staying in my home should be comfortable around other animals and able to coexist peacefully. Our pets are very much part of the family and are welcome on furniture and beds, so I aim to create a relaxed, loving, home-like environment rather than a kennel atmosphere. I understand that every pet has different comfort levels, routines, and boundaries, and I take introductions, feeding, supervision, and transitions seriously to help everyone feel safe and comfortable. If a pet prefers to be crated or separated at times, I’m happy to accommodate those needs as well. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m highly respectful of routines, security, cleanliness, and household expectations. As a longtime homeowner and business owner myself, I understand the level of trust involved when someone gives access to both their beloved pets and their home. I’m conscientious about alarms, locked doors, medications, feeding schedules, potty routines, cleanliness, and communication. Because I work remotely from home in the Avondale area, I’m also able to provide a high level of flexibility, supervision, companionship, and overnight presence for pets who are used to having someone nearby throughout the day.

“Pam is amazing and trustworthy. I used her because I already knew her and knew she was amazing, and was not disappointed. She communicated well, my dog loved her and she made sure my dog, who is a new rescue known for getting loose previously, was safe, secure and well taken care of. 100% recommend Pam. She is respectful, kind and she is calm and confident with dogs. 😊”

About: First time booking on rover? Use my code to save $40! KENDRR12795 Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all sizes and personalities. My journey started with my first pet, Frenchie, a toy poodle, followed by my family’s German Shepherd, Snoopy, and now I’m the proud dog mom to Jazmine, my adorable mini Dachshund and certified cutie patootie! I’m the go to pet sitter for friends and family, whether that means house sitting so pups can stay comfy in their own home, taking long walks, or hosting playdates to help burn off extra energy. Since I work from home, your fur baby will get plenty of attention throughout the day. Jazmine's and my daily routine includes regular walks, outdoor time to keep up with neighborhood happenings, and a few fun dance breaks (yes, really!). I understand how important consistency and routine are for pets, so I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal schedule to make their stay as stress free as possible. When you book with me, I promise to care for your dog as if they were my own, and I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and videos along the way. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur baby! Pet care is already a seamless part of my daily routine. Since I work from home, I’m able to give dogs consistent attention throughout the day rather than limiting care to mornings and evenings. During work hours, pups are typically with me in my home office or relaxing on the veranda, so they’re never left alone for long periods. Weekend care is just as flexible, allowing time for longer walks, playdates, and extra enrichment as needed. My day naturally includes regular walks, outdoor time to explore and stay engaged with the neighborhood, and interactive play (plus a few fun dance breaks!). I’m very mindful of maintaining each dog’s established routine, including feeding schedules, walk times, and any special care instructions, to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. With a fenced-in yard and a friendly resident pup, dogs in my care get both companionship and a safe space to play. As an avid Rover user myself, I know how important it is to feel comfortable with your sitter and their home. I’d love to set up a meet and greet to make sure it’s a great fit for everyone.

I like starting my morning early anyways, so it's a plus if I get to add a furry friend to it as well!! I am an attentive caretaker due to my work-from-home job. It allows me the flexibility to drop in on your pets, take them for walks to the park and give them a lot of love.

I have previously worked in a veterinarian clinic/dog groomers. I have learned a lot from my employment there. I have in the past owned many dogs and lived a few cats. I also sat with Rover from 2018-2020. For right now my schedule is pretty open. I am available 11 am through 8pm throughout the whole week. I will keep my calendar updated regularly. In addition to any written or spoken rules given by owner. I will keep safe practices with your pet such as keeping up with daily routine, making sure their environment is safe. As well with consistent monitoring.
“Vizslas are notoriously aloof and skeptical with new people. Moose is also currently in his angsty tween stage. We had a few previous meetings and greets where he decided he wasn’t a good match with the prospective dog walkers. Jordan arrived on time dressed both professionally and appropriately for a first meeting and walk with a high energy dog. She took the time to introduce herself, meet and bond with Moose, and was very easy to get along with and knowledgeable about not only working dogs but also the Rover program itself. She immediately put both myself and moose at ease. She spent time in the back yard playing fetch with him (he tends to make you feel like you’re an automatic tennis ball thrower) and then took him for a nice walk. She quickly learned his hand signals and Dutch and English voice commands. He was very disappointed to see his new friend go and is looking forward to his next adventure with her- as he has been missing his daily runs with me and now has a new awesome exercise buddy! 10/10 would recommend her to anyone!”
“Kimberly has been walking our golden retriever twice a week for a few months, and she has been amazing. She is communicative when needed, and Hampton is always excited to see her. Highly recommend.”
