“I would give 10 stars if it were possible. I was so thankful to be able to find Angie last minute to care for our dog Koa. It was Koa’s first time ever with a sitter, and we were nervous because it was 9 days, but Angie was welcoming during the meet and greet, and explained about how she would care for him. She also provided additional information about the other dogs she cared for during the time we would leave Koa with her. She sent pics almost every day to provide updates on how he was doing. We are so grateful for the amazing care that Koa received from Angie. He was a happy pup, which made us happy, too!”
“Incredibly professional and easy to work with - they sent several photos of Whisky everyday and walked him twice everyday! We very sadly were negatively impacted by Hurricane Helene, and they kept him one additional day free of charge while we navigated losing our home. Thank you for everything Nicole and Matt!”
“Very thoughtful and communicative. Sent pictures everyday of our pup for a longer boarding stay. Very friendly and flexible with her schedule. I would highly recommend her services!”
“Angela and Jorge were so good with our poodle Bailey! They made us feel comfortable in their home and Bailey to feel welcome. The communication was superb and we felt she was well cared-for and happy. We will definitely use them again.”
“Danieris and Julian are a wonderful and kind couple. They welcomed my dog and communicated regularly about his stay and questions. I would absolutely use them again.”
“Christian was awesome! He kept us updated with photos and videos the whole time. Drop off and pick up was extremely easy and he was always ready on time. We had a great experience with him.”
“Maya was a very easy sitter to work with. She responds quickly, is very kind, she keeps you updated frequently, and she knows and loves dogs. She was great with giving our boy his medications and keeping up with his demanding puppy schedule. IYKYK. We’ll definitely use Maya again!”
“This was our first time using James’s for our fur babies and both Winston and Bella just fell into a routine and made themselves right at home! He did a great job entertaining both of our dogs at the same time and loving them equally. They have different foods, and he was able to take care of each of them as they needed to be taken care of. Also, he mentioned that he would keep in touch and send pictures. He absolutely did a great job letting us know how our babies were doing even within a couple hours of dropping them off, and letting us see that they were getting the love and attention they needed. I highly recommend him, and we will use him again in the future!”
“Thank you so much for taking great care of Lilo. When I picked up my Lilo she wagged her tail and it gave me a sigh of relief because I knew she had a great time. I will be using them again for any occasion if Lilo needs to be taken care of. I’m happy I chose you. Thank you!”
“Mary has kept our dogs many times and we could not be more pleased!! Our girls get excited when we pull into her neighborhood, which is so amazing because we have always felt guilty leaving them when we go on trips. Mary’s dog Chester is a total sweetheart and gets along great with our dogs. We will keep using Mary’s sitting services as long as she’ll have us!!!! And recommend anyone else to do the same. ❤️”
“Summer was great! She took great care of my giant dog and was super understanding and flexible. She sent pictures and brushed my boy out. When it was time to get in the car he wasn’t so sure about leaving.”
“Brianna was great. I met up with her at her home. She took the time to show me around. Made my wife feel comfortable with leaving for dog with her for the stay. This was a first for us using Rover. We were thrilled with the communication & photos provided. We will definitely use her again in the future. Thank you.”
“Carlissa and her family were fantastic with our sweet boy. Super communicative, flexible and accommodating to his needs. We'll definitely be sending Rupert back for more plays!”
“Kevin has been wonderful….He keeps me updated, and even in my exhaustive busy time traveling it puts a smile on my face and an added relief knowing Maxx is in good hands! Maxx even got a buddy in the way of Kevin’s husky and they go to the dog park to play and also share fun with Kevin’s family!”
“Angelica was absolutely amazing! She sent lots of pictures and videos kept me very informed even if my dog ate less than usual. At the end of care she gifted Fazo a bandana and a Christmas toy! ❤️ Will definitely book her again!”
“Cherisse was awasome!!! My dog definitely enjoyed being over there. She sent lots of videos and pictures!!! I would definitely love my dog to go over there again in the future!!!”
“Luz was awesome. She sent no less than three pictures of our dog every day while we were on vacation. Our dog requires medication three times daily and putting our trust in Luz to administer those doses worked out real well. Next time we need a dog sitter, you better believe we’ll reach out to her again.”

“Joshua did an excellent job looking after our cat, kept his water and food filled and made sure to give extra attention to his needs. He took pictures and kept an open line of communication. He also cleaned the litter box which was very much appreciated. Definitely a great choice if you’re looking for someone you can trust to get the job done right! Will be booking again!”
“Jennifer is the best!!!! My cats were treated so well that I didn't see any difference in their behavior after our extended departure. They were relaxed when we arrived and I could see right away that they really liked the care Jennifer gave them. Jennifer was very helpful and available. She helped us out when our trip out of the country was extended by 2 weeks. I had peace of mind knowing my cats were in good hands. Everything was clean when I arrived and my cats had missed us, but I could see that they were relaxed and well fed. seraphin, my most shy cat, was super comfortable with her, and that's a great proof of the quality of the bond Jennifer knows how to build with animals. Thank you :-)”
“Kylee is amazing!! Works around whatever scheduling is necessary, very accommodating and sent daily update pictures! Loved being able to honeymoon while knowing my little kitty was being well taken care of. Tom and I thank you Kylee!”
“Great experience! Briana was willing to book with us last minute when we experienced a sitter cancel on us the day before our trip. Our cats were loved and cared as if her own. Will for sure be using her again for any future trips!”

“Haven was very reassuring and kind when we were nervous to leave our senior cat at home. She followed all of my instructions perfectly and made us feel he was in such good hands!! She sent lots of pictures which also eased our anxiety. I would absolutely book haven again 💕”
“Megan was amazing! It was my first time using Rover and she made it incredibly simple. Our cat, Ursa, has trouble using the litter box sometimes but Megan knew exactly how to handle it and gave us some tips on what we can do for her in our home. She will be our go-to when we go out and f town.”
“Jami treated our cats so good that I don't even think they missed us. She sent us photos everyday and treated them so good. We would highly recommend her and would love to use her again in the future.”
About: Been working with and caring for animals since I was 8, I have taken care of family and friends places while they take vacation since I was 16, I enjoy being able to help someone in need and this way you can enjoy the time away while you are gone. Pet care fits into my daily routine as needed but it’s easy to work around my schedule, I am able to accommodate personal requests because I understand every animal has it’s different needs. I will do the things that the homeowner request during the service and make sure that the environment is the same as it was when they left. I will play with the animals so they get to enjoy company even though they are away from the owner.
“We had a great first experience on Rover with Nicole. The family is so sweet and they sent pictures, updates and even a video of our kitty and their son cuddling. They took care of all tour cats accessories and had stuff ready to go at pickup time. Our cat was very relaxed and wants to visit again ❤️ thank you guys”
“Thank you so much for taking care of our two kitties! This was the first time we had left them alone for more than a couple days, and it was such a relief knowing someone was going to check on them and make sure the older cat got her medication.”
About: When I was 12 a stray Tom adopted us. My mother and I would bandage him after his escapades. I have since then taken care of feral cats and helped get them spayed and neutered. I have also dropped in on the cats of my friends when they go out of town to give some human stimulation and make sure they have food and water.
“Isabella did a great job taking care of our senior cat. She communicated right away when Punkin was too stressed and anxious to give her medicine. She suggested another way which worked well. The communication every day through Rover eased my mind about leaving Punkin by herself. We will definitely be using Isabella again.”
“Couldn’t have been better. Very attentive; played with them, gave them their desert-churro-sent multiple photos, indulged my cats’ foibles and mine. Kept me from worrying about them so I could enjoy a couple days out of town.”

“This was our first time using Bethany and Aaron’s dog-walking service. During the appointment setting process, Bethany was very responsive and professional.

They did great! We will use their service again for sure.”

“Jami came highly recommended by a coworker of mine, and I’m so glad she was able to take care of my lab puppy. I recently moved to another city and am heartbroken I have to find someone else. She loves all dogs like her own, and always gave thorough updates. If I ever go out of town, I’ll make the 1.5 hour commute to her. If you’re looking for someone you can trust with your home and your fur babies, look no further.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life. I walk, feed, and love my pets everyday of the week. I have two ferrets as well as dogs. I have watched family and friends pets when they have gone on vacation and had other responsibilities. I’m very responsible and a big animal lover! I have school monday- friday but am always available after and on weekends! I can pretty much walk every 0-2 hours (unless in school) and feed when it’s necessary. I have a small piece of walking land on top of a big neighborhood that is pet friendly and safe! They provide treats and trash bags to pick up dog feces.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets for over five years now. My family and friends rely on me when they go out of town or call me when they need advice on how to care for their pets :) I work fives days a week Monday-Friday 5a-1:30p and I’m off on the weekends so that leaves plenty of time to spend relaxing around the house or running around the yard or whatever else they may fancy I live in a large house with a huge fenced in yard that all the doggies love! So there’s plenty of space for the furry friends to frolic and just be happy and play
About: I have always had an admiration for animals no matter the type. But for some reason the love that you get in return from a dog is just indescribable. I know that it is always a weary feeling to leave your babies in the care of someone else. But it definitely helps to know that the person caring for your pet shares the same passion that you do. I never thought that I would own small dogs but I am actually glad that I do have two Chihuahuas now because I can take them almost anywhere! There has been an occasional weekend trip where I haven't been able to bring the pups along and it just didn't feel the same having to leave them behind. So if you have to leave them, leave them with someone who will care for them just as well as their own! I definitely prioritize my pets before any plans are made! No matter the time of day, week or year. They are my fur babies and anyone that knows me will agree! Depending on the environment or location, I would definitely say to use a leash first and foremost. I would also like to know if you know about the other animals in the area, just to provide as much safety as possible.
About: I've owned and cared for all types of dogs. I've walked and cared for large and small. I've experenced easy, well trained to the most challenging. I love them all. I'm retired, so I can easily work in walks, drop-ins, and sittings during my days. Most days I'm available after 10 A.M., but I'm flexible. I only do care at the pet parent's house, and I follow the guidelines the pet-parent sets because routines are important for consistency. I will always respect your home.
“Ruth does an excellent job caring for my puppies! She is prompt in response to any communication about their visits or changes in my work schedule, adjusts her schedule when possible to take them out earlier or later, and is easy to communicate with. She’s been overly helpful today especially when I forgot to put the lock box on my door on the way out and had a full schedule at work, she even stopped by to get the key where otherwise my puppies would have been stuck with no potty or exercise breaks for hours. These two are full of energy so I know they appreciated the extra play time they got together today also! We are very grateful for Ruth and her excellent dog walking services.”

I am retired and available for boarding, client home boarding and care, pet walks and visits. I'm available any day and time. I will answer all requests as soon as I see them.

“I would give 10 stars if it were possible. I was so thankful to be able to find Angie last minute to care for our dog Koa. It was Koa’s first time ever with a sitter, and we were nervous because it was 9 days, but Angie was welcoming during the meet and greet, and explained about how she would care for him. She also provided additional information about the other dogs she cared for during the time we would leave Koa with her. She sent pics almost every day to provide updates on how he was doing. We are so grateful for the amazing care that Koa received from Angie. He was a happy pup, which made us happy, too!”
“Incredibly professional and easy to work with - they sent several photos of Whisky everyday and walked him twice everyday! We very sadly were negatively impacted by Hurricane Helene, and they kept him one additional day free of charge while we navigated losing our home. Thank you for everything Nicole and Matt!”
“Very thoughtful and communicative. Sent pictures everyday of our pup for a longer boarding stay. Very friendly and flexible with her schedule. I would highly recommend her services!”
“Angela and Jorge were so good with our poodle Bailey! They made us feel comfortable in their home and Bailey to feel welcome. The communication was superb and we felt she was well cared-for and happy. We will definitely use them again.”
“Danieris and Julian are a wonderful and kind couple. They welcomed my dog and communicated regularly about his stay and questions. I would absolutely use them again.”
“Christian was awesome! He kept us updated with photos and videos the whole time. Drop off and pick up was extremely easy and he was always ready on time. We had a great experience with him.”
“Thank you so much for taking great care of Lilo. When I picked up my Lilo she wagged her tail and it gave me a sigh of relief because I knew she had a great time. I will be using them again for any occasion if Lilo needs to be taken care of. I’m happy I chose you. Thank you!”
“Mary has kept our dogs many times and we could not be more pleased!! Our girls get excited when we pull into her neighborhood, which is so amazing because we have always felt guilty leaving them when we go on trips. Mary’s dog Chester is a total sweetheart and gets along great with our dogs. We will keep using Mary’s sitting services as long as she’ll have us!!!! And recommend anyone else to do the same. ❤️”
“Summer was great! She took great care of my giant dog and was super understanding and flexible. She sent pictures and brushed my boy out. When it was time to get in the car he wasn’t so sure about leaving.”
“Brianna was great. I met up with her at her home. She took the time to show me around. Made my wife feel comfortable with leaving for dog with her for the stay. This was a first for us using Rover. We were thrilled with the communication & photos provided. We will definitely use her again in the future. Thank you.”
“Angelica was absolutely amazing! She sent lots of pictures and videos kept me very informed even if my dog ate less than usual. At the end of care she gifted Fazo a bandana and a Christmas toy! ❤️ Will definitely book her again!”
“Cherisse was awasome!!! My dog definitely enjoyed being over there. She sent lots of videos and pictures!!! I would definitely love my dog to go over there again in the future!!!”
“Karla was very caring for our anxious dog. She always gave updates and made sure he was truly cared for. We would love to use her again when we need to. Thank you Karla! ♥️”
“This was my first time leaving my boy with someone else. Kenny didn’t disappoint at all. He took really good care of my boy and gave me updates while I was away. I really do recommend him”

“Skye was absolutely amazing with Pixie. We hired her to watch Pixie during our wedding day and she went above and beyond. She offered more help to me during this crazy time than some of my closest friends and Pixie loved her. She was so attentive to Pixie and overall a great person!”
“When I tell your that Shelisha made me feel ao comfortable and reassured about my fur babies , she did just that. I was so nervous because I’ve never had my babies shave a sitter but she did her thing. Sent updates,photos, text messages videos. My babies were so happy with her & I love this for them. She is an awesome sitter. Did so well that I didn’t text so much and only one drop in visit . Your fur baboes will be in Great hands with her.”
“Our 2 dogs (9yo black lab & 1yo golden doodle) have stayed with Holli three times. Every time, Holli has sent us daily pictures and updates of how our dogs were doing. She is a great communicator and we can tell our dogs LOVE staying with her. I highly recommend Holli for your pups!”
“My senior dog and young cat were very well taken care of. Received daily pictures and updates. Was allowed to bring my cat’s kitty condo because that is where she feels safe. She gave my dog’s pills as prescribed. Highly recommend. They had a 9 day stay.”
