“She was very attentive, always responded quickly, and kept me informed the entire time. Most importantly, my dog Milo came back happy and very calm. I would definitely leave him with her again!”


“Such a great sitter for my dog! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! She took lots of pictures of my dog and he seemed very happy and well cared for. She took him of many walks and kept me updated on him.”

“We are so grateful to Anolan for taking such amazing care of our two dogs, Maisy and Hendrix, this past weekend while we made a last-minute trip to New Orleans for the birth of our niece. From the very beginning, Anolan was incredibly kind, patient, and responsive. She sent us updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our doggos were both happy and in good hands. Maisy and Hendrix absolutely loved her (and her sweet dog, Benji, who they got to go on walks and play with!), and they were clearly spoiled with love and treats. Anolan’s boyfriend was also great with them, and it was heartwarming to see how comfortable and relaxed our pups were in their care. We ended up being delayed in picking them up, and Anolan was nothing but understanding and gracious about it. We would 1000% recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. Thank you again, Anolan—you’re the best!”

“Brad was amazing! My dog Blanca enjoyed her time and was very happy staying with Brad. When we have a need again we will certainly use Brad. We highly recommend Brad!”

“Andrea took our dog in last minute & took great care of him, checking in with pictures & texts, despite being busy caring for multiple dogs. It was also a holiday weekend on top of it. Andrea is very accommodating & understanding, we will definitely use her services again!”

“I appreciated Catalina's diligence in making sure all the pups got alone before his first visit. The meet n greet helped ease my mind. Barli had a great first day with her and her puppies and was in great energetic spirits when I picked him up. We look forward to returning to see Catalina!”

“Wow! What an enjoyable time my dog Grace had with this family. Eliana and Joshua are such kind people and pet lovers. It was an honor to have my dog stay at their home. Their kids showed my dog so much love. I would definitely recommend them to others. What a wonderful experience.”

“Millie was very nice to my two dogs Oliver and Victoria. I am very grateful for her time with my babies. Definitely will use her services again. Also thank you for all the photos. It wad nice to see my dogs enjoying their selves.”

“Vigi and family were wonderful and my Harley was nothing but happy with them. I will be booking for any future boarding and daycare as long as they are available. Highly recommend them for your fur babies!”


“Mary was very responsive and provided updates/pictures daily. She took great care of my elderly girl and provided peace of mind for us to be able to enjoy our time away. Would not hesitate to use her services again.”


“Sandra was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Alec! She took such great care of him during his 6-night stay and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She kept me updated with plenty of pictures and messages, which I really appreciated and loved seeing. It was clear that Alec was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I would definitely book with Sandra again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter. Thank you, Sandra!”

“My chihuahua and I haven't been a part in forever. When my family and I went on a one week trip, I knew I had to find the perfect dog sitter. My dog is picky and I was worried, but she was immediately comfortable at crystals house. She is so kind and attentive, and became best friends with my chihuahua. She was comfortable around everyone in the household and very well taken care of. Will certainly be using her services in the future and am beyond thankful for her and her family. Thank you SO much”


“Lilly has stayed with Bridget three times now and comes home happy and tired! We get great photos of her with Bridget and her family and she always looks like she’s having fun. We’ve started referring to them as Lilly’s “other family”.”

“We booked Kelly and James to watch our fur baby over the weekend after a warm and welcoming meet-and-greet with her and her family. They were very friendly, and our fur baby clearly enjoyed his time there and came home happy and relaxed. Her attention to detail was excellent, and she followed our instructions carefully throughout the stay. Overall, our dog seemed very well loved and cared for, and we’d be happy to book with her again. Thanks Kelly and James!”


“I am so happy to have found Sanja again! I absolutely love her and her family and how happy and content Hunter is with her. She watched his big sister years ago and I would not want anyone else to watch him.”


“Amazing! Taught my pup how to use a doggy door which was really cool. My dog came back super tired and pooped out because he was playing nonstop with the other dogs. Very thankful for this family for watching Atlas!”

About: I’ve had pets all my life. From guinea pigs to chihuahuas to pitties. I’ve yet to meet an animal I didn’t like and I don’t plan to ever. I spend time volunteering at the local Humane Society to learn how to better care for animals like yours. I’m a full time student looking to make most of my income here on Rover. I also spend a few hours a week at the Humane Society. I've had animals as long as I've been self-aware. My family dogs include a senior chihuahua and a 7 year old pittie. At home, my family includes two kitties, Moomin (5) and Toro (1), who are both from the Jacksonville Humane Society! They are my pride and joy and I consider them my sons. I work well with all pets. Doesn’t matter if they’re skittish or energetic. Please do not hesitate to let me know the specifics of your pet’s care needs. It is my duty to cater to their personality! Additionally, I will be sure to send lots of pictures to update you while you’re away.

“Wendy took amazing care of our 5 cats! She always showed up on time and a long with feeding, watering, litter cleanup, she gave our cats pets and love. She updated us every time with great pictures and great communication. It was an extreme pleasure and comfort to have someone like Wendy take care of our cats while we were out of the country! 10/10!”

“Kristin is so wonderful with our kitty. We really appreciate her extra efforts. She handled our kitty’s medicine schedule like a champ! And, she helped us discover that he likes to watch Animal Planet when we are away. We will definitely work with Kristin again in the future😎”


“Alena is a great person. She always comes feed my yard cat and changes his water. I never worry about the food and she is always there and on time. Thank you Alena.”


“Allison was incredibly thorough in all of her visits, leaving several pictures and detailed notes every day. Unlike other sitters, Allison really took the time to build trust with our pets and make sure they had the highest quality care while we were away. I could not be happier with her level of service and would be thrilled to hire her again in the future.”


“Katlyn was great! Very responsive, accommodating, and was able to help us last minute while we were out of town. She sent photos and gave updates and our boy was very appreciative of her help!”

“Jessica is FANTASTIC!!!!! Like a Disney princess with our kittens. They adored her. She gave them lots of cuddles and was happy to sleep on the sofa in their space although we offered the bedroom- I thought that was very sweet. We got to enjoy our trip without anxiety over our kitties’ well-being, came back from our trip to two happy and well-cared for babies. Thank you :)”

“On-time, professional, courteous - Renata took great care of my cat while I was away. Sent a nice update and a photo every time she dropped in. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a catsitter!”


“Aaliyah was AMAZING!!! My cat, Mopsy, loved her and she can me timid with new people. Aaliyah gave Mopsy time to get comfortable around her, and sent me so many photos and videos! She was on time and even stayed extra since she loved Mopsy so much! She is an amazing sitter and I will 1000% use her again and recommend her to anyone!”

“Kimberly walked into a difficult first time situation to manage my brother's pet cat's improperly maintained litter box. My brother is in assisted living,(Florida) and does have cognitive issues. He, by mistake discarded the scooper. Kimberly was in her rights to quit right there. Instead she informed me of the problems and opted to try one more visit. I, (NJ), saw to it to provide items needed. Who could ask for a better second chance. Kimberly is most definitely a caring professional. Hopefully it goes better going forward. I am prepared to at some point look to get Nicholas (the cat), adopted, but for now I thank Kimberly for her great efforts.”

“Angie did a great job caring for our kitties. And she is thorough with care and keeping the house clean in the areas the pets utilize. Great to see pictures are a report each day about the kitties. A very caring setter!”


“Mary is absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of our dog, Deak, while we were away for a few days. She sent daily photos and an itemized list of his "business", and went above and beyond by keeping up with his daily walking routine and even spent time letting the school kids pet him which he loves! It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and has a superior work ethic. We returned to a happy, relaxed dog. We will be booking her for our next trip and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and reliable pet sitter!”

“Allison has been our go-to sitter for our cat, Aurora, for quite some time now. I trust her in our home and appreciate her ability to work with us when our schedules suddenly change. Aurora seems to like her as well, a definite plus! Thank you, Alison!”

About: My profile saids Michelle, but please call me Micah 🙏😊 My first time caring for a dog was when my family adopted a miniature, silver-haired, poodle puppy, that I named Shadow back in 2007 before attending university. Before graduating high school, my neighbors would ask me to look after their own four-legged family members (mostly dogs and cats) when they went out of town. I provided excellent care for their pets as if they were my own. I also have experience from working at a dog daycare and boarding facility between 2015 and 2016. The facility hosted dogs as small as Yorkies and as big as Great Danes. My duties at the daycare was to supervise play, clean up after the dogs, keep the facility clean, stay overnight for dogs that were boarding, help with feeding, give oral medication and provide transportation for dogs to their preferred vets whenever necessary. Since 2016, I have been providing pet care services through Rover and making long-lasting relationships with families and their furkids. I'm also open to taking care of of other pets as well. We'll just discuss beforehand. I currently work 25-40 hours per week at a salon, so pups that can go at least 8 hours without a potty break or are chill and comfortable in a salon work environment would be the best fit. I currently live in a 3br apartment with my service dog and my domestic partner. I have more experience as a house sitter and can be trusted to keep up with house chores such as collecting mail, watering plants, taking out the garbage, etc.

About: With many years of experience and a home full of kindness, we welcome every furry guest like family. After our own senior dog crossed the rainbow, our hearts have even more room. My mom and I work part-time, which means one of us is almost always home. Your pet will never feel lonely here — just cared for, watched over, and loved like family. I follow every instruction carefully and always respect each pet’s unique needs. Animals are like kids — they all have their own personality, comfort level, and routine. I make sure they feel safe, understood, and cared for at all times.
About: My dad is a veterinarian, I am very lucky since that allows me to know how to vaccinate animals and even suture an emergency wound, what to do in cases where a puppy is fading due to its consumption of some food or to act in case of poisoning I am currently working part time that allows me to take care of and play with your pet after 3 in the afternoon during the week and also on weekends The neighborhood is very quiet and we have nearby parks if you want me to take your dog to one, in winter we could look for options to protect your dogs pads from the snow and the cold
About: As a pet owner, I know how important it is to have your furbaby well taken care of when you're not around. My two pups have since passed away and while I'm not ready to add another to the family, I would love to puppysit yours! I can administer meds, feed, walk, and play with your dog. I also have four young children who adore animals and would shower your pup with love and endless playtime. When your dog stays with us, it becomes part of the family. I believe it should be that way because that's how I would want my dog taken care of when I'm out of town. I am currently a stay at home mom so my time is flexible and I am home a lot. Your dog won't be lonely and will get plenty of pets, cuddles, and playtime. When your pup visits us, they become part of the family. So rest assured they will get plenty of attention, walks, and love throughout the day.
“Millie took wonderful care of my pup, PuPu! I’m usually nervous about leaving him with someone new since he has separation anxiety, but she really put my mind at ease. Her lovely outdoor space was perfect for the dogs, and she sent pictures of PuPu having fun with her dog, Toby. When I picked him up, he looked happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great time. I would absolutely recommend Millie and will definitely book with her again!”

About: When you board with us, your pet gets more than a place to stay, your pet gets a family to be a part of. We are a family of 6 humans, 1 dog, and 5 chickens and 2 ducks. Your pet will have plenty of playmates! I am a single mother who works from home. I drop off and pick up my kids from school, and run the occasional errand, but usually I am home. I enjoy an evening walk with my chocolate lab and would love your pet to join us. I have a fully fenced, large backyard. I also have two extra crates if your dog is crate-trained and feels more comfortable sleeping in a crate. Pets being on furniture is discouraged, but rarely enforced. I have an SUV and am willing to transport pets if needed.
“Absolutely AMAZING!! Rico doesn’t trust anyone and everyone and he absolutely adored & trusted her! She sent amazing updates and was soo friendly! I will for certain book with her again! ❤️❤️”

“We were so pleased with Cody and Angel's care. They love staying with Amy and her doggy's. We are very happy . Amy is wonderful looking forward to using the service with Amy alot in the future.”

“Took great care of my dog! She has her own large Great Dane who had a lot of fun with mine (about 50 lbs, a pit mix) and a Boston Terrier she was watching for someone else. Huge size differences but they all had fun together!”


“Mary was amazing from the jump! I am new to the area and was worried about sending my dog off with someone I didn’t know but Mary immediately put me at ease. She asked questions, provided clarity, and wanted to make sure my dog and I were comfortable with everything. Would love to use her again!”


“Very accomodating to our drop off and pick up times. It was our first time leaving hunter with someone we did not know but Jason sent pictures and updates throughout the day! He is super nice and we just moved to this area so I would use him again!”

“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.”

“This has to be the best place to send your dog!! My Bear is so excited to go see them!! He's so happy and well taken care of!! The pictures I received during his stays assured me that he was doing well. When I pick my little guy up he's so joyful and just prancing around like he has the best time ever. I highly recommend this couple!! Very nice”

“Jennifer was wonderful! She took the time to ask thoughtful questions and really understand my dog’s habits to make sure he was well cared for. My pup struggles with separation anxiety, so I was nervous about leaving him with someone new, but Jennifer quickly put me at ease. She sent me frequent updates and photos, which helped so much. When I went to pick him up, he seemed relaxed and comfortable — a true sign that he was in good hands. I highly recommend Jennifer!”

About: My wife and I have two dogs - a tiny shih tzu and a huge golden doodle. We're extreme dog lovers and no dog is too big or too small for us! We have a fenced yard for your pups to run around! I work remotely most of the time and I will have lots of time to cater to your dogs and give them all the love. Safety and comfort are our top priorities. We offer a securely fenced outdoor area for supervised play with our two dogs and a quiet, climate-controlled room for your pet to chill out.
“We had a wonderful experience with Lisa and David, they were very responsive to schedule a meet and greet and we were made so comfortable, we did not feel like it was the first time! Highly recommend and would definitely book again with them.”

About: Trabajaba bañando perros y un poco de peluquero de perros. También hago cuidado de los perros a diario y quiero añadir más a mi vida y eh tenido perros toda mi vida, así como trabajar con ellos en situaciones profesionales. Estoy abierto a casi todo, buscando trabajo extra. Pets who board need to be dog friendly as we would take them to the shop with other dogs during the day with us. Other than that we are usually available 7 days a week after 6pm for now. I have a super nice family, I have space at home for him to run and at work too since I work in a grommets salon and if you want me to go to his home to take care of him I have mobility to go to take care of the conceited of the house

“Kristin was so wonderful to work with! I’ve never used rover for walks before and was so happy with the experience with Kristin, and know our dog was happy to get out and about every morning with her. She was so timely and our dog definitely loved her. We will definitely use her again!”

“James is awesome. He did a meet and greet with both of my dogs prior to the walk and was understanding when I was late due to traffic. He has a calm demeanor and understands the importance of giving an anxious dog their space. My dogs did great on a walk with him, and he made sure that they were safe. My anxious dog actually approached and sniffed him after the walk, and even took some treats from him which is a big deal for her. I highly recommend James to anyone!”

About: I’ve cared for a few different types of animals, including cats (especially elderly), small dogs, hamsters, bunnies and reptiles. I’m very comfortable with taking care of these types of animals! I am currently a full time student with internship, I am not working so I have a lot of free time to care for pets, especially at night. I will care for pets however the client prefers their pet to be cared for. Every pet is different and has different needs, I will do my best to make sure they are as comfortable and safe as possible.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and caring for them has always come naturally to me.

“Sarah has been an awesome help to our family. My 2 beagles always looked forward to their walks with Sarah and returned happy every time. She is also super reliable and responsive. I wish her the best in her upcoming move but we are also sad to see her go!”

About: Growing up I've always had a passionate and genuine care for all manner of animals. Through my experience I have been able to adapt to each respective animals own routine and needs. With caring for you pet, I make it my commitment to give them my undivided attention while ensuring they have a great experience with me! I'm a full time student but I'm currently unemployed, so I have plenty of time to stop by / stay where the dog resides while giving them the best care needed. While visiting / staying in my clients home, I ensure all areas around me are clean and kept up with in a way that not only will please my client but also make a comfortable and safe surrounding for their furry friends.
About: I have been taking care of animals all my life! I’ve had many exotic, farm and typical pets who all live happily at my family home. I have a cat of my own living with me here in college:) I have been working as a kennel technician for a year now doing grooming, cleaning, administering medication, exercising and more for dogs of all sizes. I am currently working part time so I am available to check in on pets multiple times a day as well as do an extended visit/stay if needed as much as my daily shift allows:) I am a person dedicated to the happiness and safety of pets. As a very avid animal lover I will always treat your babies as my own and ensure they are being cared for both emotionally and physically while you are away. I have seen a few horror stories about pet care experiences and would love to give you the relief of knowing someone cares about your loved ones. I have many pets of my own and understand boundaries when it comes to animals. I am more than willing to do any task needed to keep pets comfortable and feeling like normal even if they might seem a little silly!

About: Hi!! I am a full-time college student who is looking to help out over the summer!! I am ready to take on last minute jobs and am very communicative and dependable. During the academic year, I may be available for drop-in visits so please reach out to see if my schedule aligns. I am a very busy student, but for weekends or some afternoons I should be able to help. During summer or winter break, I am free to help! Whether this means walking, feeding, sitting or bathing! Dogs or Cats! Depending on the pet, I will play with or just keep watch over them. I do an exceptional job of following directions and keeping tidy!
“Laura is very helpful, dependable and thoughtful. Laura has been helping me out while I have been stuck traveling from flight delays....with a couple of extra visits for my pup. I cannot be more grateful to Laura for her extra help at the last minute.”

About: Hi! I’m Carissa, a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all kinds — from energetic Chihuahuas and Yorkies to my two sweet Frenchies, including Luna, who’s been through two surgeries and needed lots of love and care. I’m comfortable with training routines, giving medications, and making sure each pet feels safe, happy, and loved. Whether your pup needs a calm cuddle or a playful walk, I’m here to treat them like family! I’m working part time, my schedule is very flexible so I can meet and take care of your babies. Pet care is already a part of my daily life. I currently have four dogs of my own, so I’m used to early walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and giving meds when needed. Taking care of pets fits right into my routine and honestly brings me so much joy—I love making sure they’re happy and comfortable. My frenchie is very high maintenance so I will take care your baby like I take care of mine. I respect peoples home and will keep your animals safe at all times.

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. As a dog owner, I know the importance of patience, trust-building, and creating a safe environment where pets feel comfortable and loved. My rescue dog, Orville, has taught me the value of meeting dogs where they are, whether they need extra reassurance, structure, playtime, or simply a calm companion. I take the time to learn each pet’s habits and preferences so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free while their family is away. I have always enjoyed helping friends, family, and neighbors by caring for their pets. While I have not provided pet care professionally before or through a platform like Rover, I have plenty of hands-on experience caring for animals and understanding their needs. My experience may not be formally documented, but it comes from years of genuine care, responsibility, and love for all animals. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and communicative. Your pet will be treated with the same care, respect, and affection I give my own. Thursday through Saturday, I have flexible availability and can provide care throughout the day. I currently work four days a week until 3 PM, so Sunday through Wednesday I'm available after 3 PM. I am happy to work with your pet’s schedule and routine! I love spending time in my own backyard, but I also enjoy exploring new places! My pup loves adventures, so we often visit on-leash parks for walks, fresh air, and new experiences. I enjoy giving dogs opportunities to safely explore, get exercise, and enjoy the world around them while always keeping their comfort and safety a priority. Play is a constant in our household! I believe playtime is about more than just fetch. I enjoy incorporating scent games, enrichment activities, and mentally stimulating games into a dog’s routine to help keep them happy and engaged (esp. if it's extremely hot or rainy)!

Her attention to detail was excellent, and she followed our instructions carefully throughout the stay. Overall, our dog seemed very well loved and cared for, and we’d be happy to book with her again. Thanks Kelly and James!”


“Amazing! Taught my pup how to use a doggy door which was really cool. My dog came back super tired and pooped out because he was playing nonstop with the other dogs. Very thankful for this family for watching Atlas!”


“Angela did an amazing job! She was able to watch our little man and was very accommodating by even extending his stay an extra day after we had already booked it. It was a very last minute decision to go out of town, so Angela was a blessing. He loved his stay and I liked the updates.”

“Wonderful lady! I was nervous about using rover but she was great. Her dog Molly is also great and very welcoming. She accommodated what ever my baby needed. I was sent updated and several photos. That really helped my anxiety about leaving my dog. My dog is happy and healthy when i picked her up. I would definitely use her again in the future! Your pup will be in great hands with her”

“Archer had a blast. We had peace of mind from the photos and videos and I knew that Archer was in good hands. They were very friendly and accommodating to our crazy schedule.”

“Niko had a great time, I appreciated all of the pictures and updates Lisa sent, my wife and I were out of town and Lisa did a great job at giving me peace of mind. 10/10 I would definitely recommend!”

“I’m so grateful I came across Daisy and her family. They watched my dog over the weekend and took amazing care of her. It was clear she was treated like part of the family, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Daisy kept me updated, and I could tell my dog was happy and well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
