“A+++++++ Excellent job communicating and watching zuzu for me! Gave me updates when I needed them and really helped make me feel relaxed while being out of the country. Will definitely consider them again for boarding needs 🙂🙂🙂🙂”
“Lis was able to keep my three babies last minute while I finished my move. She was very friendly and I'm very grateful for her flexibility and willingness to help! She was very comfortable around my cats and had other animals as well. I would recommend her!”
“Linda was a wonderful sitter for my 1 year old Cockapoo. I was a little nervous about finding a sitter when we moved in September. Thanks to Rover and Linda I found a way to be comfortable about leaving my baby. After having a meet and greet with Linda, I was sure that I found the right person. I was happy when she advised me during the day and sent cute pictures. It made my weekend away so much better knowing my puppy was well taken care of.”
“Betsy was amazing with our dog, Bogey! She took such great care of him while we were away and kept us updated, which gave us total peace of mind. It’s clear she truly loves animals- Bogey was happy and well cared for. We’ll definitely be using her again! Thank you Betsy❤️”
“Stephanie and Elizabeth have provided outstanding care for our dog many, many times. We have never had to worry about anything when he is in their gentle and loving care! We highly recommend them.!!!!! Narda B”
“The best sitters I’ve ever experienced!! They sent pictures and videos of our little pup multiple times a day, he was constantly getting exercise during his visit, and they even taught him “paw”! We can tell our pup had a great time with them and on top of that they were very communicative and flexible. Cannot say enough good things! 🫶”
“Alyssa was a great and quick communicator. She helped with my dog's medications, which were a few of them. It sounded like Klyo had a great time and had a chance to interact with other dogs for a change. Will definitely use again when needed.”
“Nancy is an excellent dog sitter. She takes such great care of our pup, Koah. Her home is relaxing and quiet and he gets all the snuggles he could ever ask for when he's with Nancy.”
“Jewel was so kind and detailed taking all the info I had for Luna since she is Diabetic and on special diet. Has a fenced in yard and walks the dogs. She brought out her two precious little princesses to meet Luna and they were so adorable. Her detailed text with pics of Luna’s daily events made my day. Thank you so much Jewel. I can see Luna was super relaxed since picking her up and her usual cry whining just didn't happen. It usually takes her three days to get chill again when I leave her. Thank you and your pups for her great stay away from home. 💖 You were the perfect pick for Luna.”
“Michelle did a terrific job for MIllie and myself. Both Millie and myself were experiencing separation anxiety, and Michelle did a great job for both of us.. Lots of photos and email dialogue reassuring my wife and I that Millie was doing fine. Truthfully, I think Millie missed being there and took a little time readjusting to being home. Will definitely try and book Michelle when we back in Florida next year.”
“Janette and Allyson were wonderful doggie sitters while I went off on a cruise. It was a last minute reservation and she was welcomed with loving arms. Highly recommended!”
“As always, Jessica made it super easy to drop off and pick up! Wisco loves going there any time we have to leave her for a trip. And she always comes home exhausted, which means she’s getting all the play she could want.”
“Very nice people. They took great care of my fur baby and kept me posted with text messages and pictures while they watched him over a three day period. Highly recommend!”
“So lucky to have found Angela - she's a gem! Our Stella enjoyed her vacation time with both Angela and her dog, Bieber. Thank you for the peace of mind and we will definitely see you again!”
“Nothing short of amazing. Lori kept in touch with updates and pictures. Our pups we genuinely happy there. Very accommodating, just good people. We will definitely use Lori again!”
“Felicia was wonderful with our girl, Josie, we would highly recommend and will take her back on our next trip. When she she moped after we left, Felicia worked with her to make her feel at home. This took a lot of extra time and loving which was freely given. Lots of healthy treats, brushing and long walks got her tail wagging and happy. We got lots of pictures and updates I could see how happy and content Josie was. So leave your furry friend there and know you’ll get care and attention and not have to worry. Her years of experience and compassion shows, this isn’t just a part time job for extra money, she enjoys it!”
“Beth was amazing. We have probably never felt at such ease when leaving our puppies behind when we travel. She updated us daily and sent pics of them having the time of their life. Highly recommend and will use Beth again when we travel. 🐶💯”
“Riley was happy and well cared for. Abigail provided pictures and regular updates. She showed love and affection towards Riley and asked the right questions about feeding and walks etc. We will definately be using her again!”

“My 2nd time having Denise watch James and it was as smooth as the first. Always the best updates with lots of photos and I can tell he’s super relaxed and comfortable with her. I couldn’t reccommend anyone else to have as your pet sitter!”
“Mckayla did an amazing job watching my cat, Panda! She sent lots of pictures, played with her, and gave clear updates that made me feel at ease while I was on my cruise. Thank you again!”
“Caroline did a great job. She was prompt and sent us great notes on how all three of our cats behaved and ate. She communicates very well and truly cares about our pets.”
“Alina was great in every way, it was a pleasure to work with her. You can tell she really loves animals and made quick friends with our kitty, who is usually very shy with new people. Alina’s communication was excellent from the start, and we never had to wait for an update or a reply. She provided detailed updates after each visit with plenty of pictures. We would love to work with her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Jen did a fantastic job taking care of our Maine Coon Stormy this week! She sent plenty of pictures and updates during her visits and we knew our girl was well taken care of! We will be reaching out next time we go out of town. Thank you Jen!!!”
“Michael was very helpful with my last minute cat sitting needs. He provided short but thorough updates each visit, and my cats definitely appreciated their playtime.”
“Coral was so wonderful with our cat while my husband I were on vacation. Our cat is timid and hides around strangers but Coral was able to befriend her very quickly which is a huge relief to us and we didn’t have to worry at all while we were away. Thank you Coral!”
“Angelina dropped in to meet the kitties and go over their routine. Then she nailed it! She handled medication twice a day, refrigerated food, and they lived having her play with them. Angelina is a great communicator and a fantastic pet sitter.”
“Catherine was terrific with our cats. She came over before the stay to meet our boys and learn their schedule. Shadow is usually stand off-ish but took to her right off. He gets insulin shots twice a day and Catherine handled that perfectly. We have already booked her for our next trip.”
“Kaitlyn has cared for my dog and cat through both check-ins and overnight stays, and I couldn’t be happier with her service. She is reliable, punctual, communicative, and always provides great updates and photos that give me peace of mind while I’m away. She’s also been able to help on short notice, which I greatly appreciate. Her kindness and genuine care for my pets truly set her apart. I highly recommend her!”
“This is our first time using Rover so we were a little nervous leaving our 2 cats with strangers. But Stephanie and Elizabeth were absolutely perfect! They were quick to respond and took perfect care of our fur babies. We came home to our place clean and our cats happy! Would 100% book with them again :)”
About: I’ve been a dog mom for over 18 years and love caring for pets of all ages. I currently have two of my own, including a tiny 3-month-old Chihuahua, so I’m very used to puppy schedules, potty breaks, and routines. I work from home, which lets me give attention throughout the day, whether I’m hosting pets in my home or staying in yours. I follow each pet’s routine so they feel safe and comfortable, and I send updates so you always feel connected. Travel fee: If your location is 8 miles or more away, I charge a small $8 travel fee. I always confirm before adding it. I work from home, so I’m always around and able to give attention throughout the day. I take natural breaks for walks, potty time, and play, and my afternoons and weekends are usually open which makes scheduling easy. I have a fenced yard and a calm home where dogs can feel safe and relaxed. When I care for pets in their own home, I treat the space with respect and follow their routine so nothing feels unfamiliar. I pay close attention to gates, leashes, feeding instructions, and comfort items, and I always check in with updates so you feel comfortable and at ease.
“Stacey does an awesome job with our cat Taki. She always does her best to get our shy little girl out to play and eat when she visits. We love the photos. Always helps us when we are away to see her being taken care of and to know she is safe.”
“Bailey was a WONDERFUL cat sitter. She checked up on my two cats once a day, feeding them, filling their water bowl, cleaning the litter, and giving my one friendly cat lots of love. I asked if she would send a picture of them each day so I wouldn't worry as much about them. She went above and beyond, sending 8 or 9 pictures and videos each day and also sending full reports on how they were doing. I get very anxious when I'm away from the kitties, and her detailed updates made me feel so much better about being away for the holidays.”
“Kim was great. She gave detailed visit information each time and plenty of pictures. ❤️ She brought her own toys to play with our “kits” which was very nice knowing they were entertained while we were away. We will definitely use Kim for our future “kit” care.”
“Awesome cat sitter! Indika was great; she came to our home consistently and sent great pictures. I could tell my cats were in great hands. Will book again when we leave town. Our cats really liked her! Thank you!”
About: I have been a nanny for children and pets for over 10 years. I work as a full-time coach and have experience working and volunteering at the Humane Society in Minnesota.

“Our miniature dachshund "Monty" went to Olga for daycare a couple of times. He liked her very much and was well cared for by Olga and her family. Unfortunately we aren't able to book her anymore cause we just moved. We wish Olga and her family the very best.”
“Kym and Glen always take great care of my Blu. It was clear from the start that they genuinely love animals and treat them like their own. They provided regular updates and photos, which gives me peace of mind knowing my pup is happy and well-cared for while working my long hours. My dog always is so excited to spend the day with Glen and Kym. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter!”
“I believe our boys have found their new best friend! We have a couple of rescues and one of them is high energy, high anxiety. We really needed someone who could help him become more comfortable around other dogs—needed lots of patience! Tara is an answer to a prayer! We had two meet and greets with her dog, and we just picked them up from their first day of daycare. They did great and we are so happy to recommend Tara!”
About: I grew up on a farm and have taken care of every farm animal from horses to chickens. My sister said I was like the Pied Piper. Animals would just follow me around. I have trained therapy dogs and one service dog. I love all animals and they love me. I often say I'd rather spend time with dogs than people. (I like people, too) I was a certified teacher for 38 years and just recently retired. Oh, kids like me, too. I'm currently retired and spend a great deal of my time at home. I teach music lessons one afternoon a week but other than that your dog will have lots of attention. I have a 1/4 acre fenced in yard with an electronic gate that is always locked and can only be opened with a remote gate opener. I live in a very shaded area of the historic part of a quiet neighborhood. . I have a neutered husky that loves dogs from 4 to 150 pounds.
“Michelle watched our dog Kona over 4 days while we were in Bradenton on spring break. We appreciated her flexible schedule and all the pics she sent each day which showed our Kona was in good spirits and great care! Super easy drop off and pick ups. Michelle is so nice and friendly. We are so grateful she was available for us. Highly recommend!!”
“Betsy is awesome. Thank you so much for watching Zoey so we could spend a couple days at the beach, without worrying if we left her alone at our rental! Highly recommend. A++++”
“Gina was amazing with my pup nova. Her home was so cozy and clean. She was so well taken care of and had plenty of toys to play with. Her doodles were also the best companion for my nova to play with. Definitely will book with again!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a natural connection to pets of all kinds. I grew up with Yorkies and cats, and today I share my home with two retired rescue greyhounds. I’ve also spent time around large breeds like English Mastiffs, so I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I bring a calm, patient energy that helps pets feel safe and comfortable—whether they’re shy, senior, or full of puppy energy. I understand how important it is for your pet to feel at ease while you’re away, and I’m fully committed to creating that sense of home and routine for them. From administering medications to taking gentle walks or simply being a warm presence, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My love for animals started at a very young age—I even worked at a veterinary hospital at age 14 as a dog trainer, which gave me hands-on experience in caring for and understanding pets. That early passion has only grown stronger over the years. Pet care is now a natural part of my daily life. I start and end each day with walks and quality time with my two retired greyhounds, so caring for animals is woven into my routine. Whether it’s feeding, walking, giving medication, or simply offering comfort and companionship, I genuinely enjoy every part of it. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the attention, care, and consistency they need—whether it’s daily drop-ins, overnight stays, or weekend visits. Making animals feel loved and secure is something I take pride in, and it never feels like a task—it’s something I truly love. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is always the same: to make them feel safe, loved, and as comfortable as possible. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding schedules, walk times, play preferences, and any special needs like medication or extra quiet time. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and keep things tidy and consistent, so your pet feels secure while you’re away. I take the time to get to know their personality and provide calm companionship, play, and affection based on what they enjoy. In my home, pets are treated like family. I create a peaceful, pet-friendly environment with soft spaces to relax, lots of love, and a routine that helps reduce stress. Whether they need extra snuggles, slow-paced walks, or a little patience, I meet them where they are—physically and emotionally.
“Charlie awas very responsive, and accommodating. His wife took Halo for a walk as soon as we arrived. Charlie sent pictures and updates on Halo. I would definitely recommend them.”
About: I have had pets my entire life. With a range of dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, geckos, chinchillas, and fish. I take pride in knowing animal behaviors and being able to accommodate to all needs from puppies to seniors. I work full time but can work from home when needed. My husband is a stay at home dad. So someone is always at the house or near by. We have a large spacious home, with plenty of space to explore and find comfort. Our backyard is fenced in with a lock on the gate. Our neighborhood has sidewalks and paths and is residential so only local homeowners travel in and out the area. Very quiet and clean neighborhood.
“SO MANY GOOD THINGS I COULD SAY!!! My boyfriend and I look at our two dogs, Hope (almost 2) and Zeus (3 months), like they are children. Our girl Hope can be an escape artist at times and is very active, so we have a collar for her with gps and tracking of her steps. With that being said, in the past I have not re-used some people off rover because Hope simply would not move the entire time!!! At Donnas, Hope and Zeus both ran and ran (after all I could tell). And had an absolute blast. Her yard is fenced in so no dog could get out, even our little lunatics. She knows so much about dogs I have never felt so confident with leaving our babies with someone before. Hope and Zeus will be back!! Truly a gem!”
About: you would like to have Peace of Mind abut your beloved pet - you are in the right place! I had dogs and cats as long as I can remember.

About: I’ve cared for both dogs and cats for several years and truly understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. As a pet owner myself, I have hands-on experience with feeding routines, litter box maintenance, daily walks, playtime, enrichment, and lots of affection. While I’m newer to professional pet sitting, I have real-life experience caring for my own animals and helping friends and family with theirs. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for pets of different temperaments — from energetic pups to independent or shy cats. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I currently work part-time and create my own schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, including afternoons and evenings. Because of my flexible schedule, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive consistent care and attention. I have a fully fenced backyard with grass for safe outdoor play and live within walking distance of a dog park for extra exercise (with owner approval). Inside my home, pets are supervised and kept in a calm, clean environment. I can easily follow specific feeding schedules, crate routines, medication instructions, or litter box preferences. For cats, I ensure litter boxes stay clean, provide enrichment and playtime, and respect their space if they prefer quiet companionship. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away.
About: I provide personalized routines, patient guidance, and playful enrichment, creating a safe environment where every dog feels understood, engaged, and excited to learn and explore I offer flexible, reliable availability, making it easy to book last-minute care.

About: I'm an Arkansas native, raised on a farm with 5 dogs, 5 cats, and lots of other farm animals! Recently, my biggest source of pet care experience is raising and caring for my pit bull, Odin, over the last 6 years. He's my best friend and honestly my whole world! Through caring for him every day, I've learned how important patience, consistency, exercise, affection, and routine are for a happy pet. I've also occasionally looked after the pets of friends and family, helping with walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship when they've needed an extra hand. I've always loved animals and tend to connect with them quickly. Whether your pet wants to play, go for walks, or just have a calm companion around, I'll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I recently moved to Florida from Arkansas and am excited to meet pets and pet owners in my new community. Right now, pet sitting is my primary focus, which means I have a very flexible schedule and am available for daytime, evening, weekday, and weekend bookings. As I settle into the area and eventually take on other work, my availability may become more limited, but for now I'm happy to accommodate a wide range of pet care needs. Every pet is different, so I always try to follow the owner's routine and preferences as closely as possible. During drop-in visits, I'll make sure your pet has fresh water, plenty of attention, and any care you've requested. For dogs, I can provide walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and companionship. I'm patient, attentive, and always pay close attention to a pet's comfort level and body language. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and happy while you're away.

We can tell our pup had a great time with them and on top of that they were very communicative and flexible. Cannot say enough good things! 🫶”
“Alyssa was a great and quick communicator. She helped with my dog's medications, which were a few of them. It sounded like Klyo had a great time and had a chance to interact with other dogs for a change. Will definitely use again when needed.”
“Michelle did a terrific job for MIllie and myself. Both Millie and myself were experiencing separation anxiety, and Michelle did a great job for both of us.. Lots of photos and email dialogue reassuring my wife and I that Millie was doing fine. Truthfully, I think Millie missed being there and took a little time readjusting to being home. Will definitely try and book Michelle when we back in Florida next year.”
“As always, Jessica made it super easy to drop off and pick up! Wisco loves going there any time we have to leave her for a trip. And she always comes home exhausted, which means she’s getting all the play she could want.”
“Nothing short of amazing. Lori kept in touch with updates and pictures. Our pups we genuinely happy there. Very accommodating, just good people. We will definitely use Lori again!”
“Audrey and Karson were very kind and welcoming to our Golden girl and excellent with prompt communication. They sent regular photos of her which really helped a lot to know she was doing well with them. Overall, it was an excellent experience w and made it easier for us to be apart from her. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her board with them again!”
“Joan is a special person that made my old beagle feel right at home. He looked so happy in all the pictures she sent me and I know he will miss playing with his fellow doggie companions. Thank you to Joan and I will definitely check with you if I need to go away again!”
“Robert and Topher took great care of our dog, and even sent us pictures and updates. Will definitely book with them again in the future and have already recommended them to friends.”
“Dr. Hope is the first sitter that has completely put my mind at ease. I know my doggies are well cared for while I’m out of town and they are always excited to go there. I highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve cared for both dogs and cats for several years and truly understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. As a pet owner myself, I have hands-on experience with feeding routines, litter box maintenance, daily walks, playtime, enrichment, and lots of affection. While I’m newer to professional pet sitting, I have real-life experience caring for my own animals and helping friends and family with theirs. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for pets of different temperaments — from energetic pups to independent or shy cats. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I currently work part-time and create my own schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, including afternoons and evenings. Because of my flexible schedule, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive consistent care and attention. I have a fully fenced backyard with grass for safe outdoor play and live within walking distance of a dog park for extra exercise (with owner approval). Inside my home, pets are supervised and kept in a calm, clean environment. I can easily follow specific feeding schedules, crate routines, medication instructions, or litter box preferences. For cats, I ensure litter boxes stay clean, provide enrichment and playtime, and respect their space if they prefer quiet companionship. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away.
“Tara is AMAZING! Our pup boarded with her full time for a week while we were out of town. Professional, caring, reliable, and communicative, just to name a few of her wonderful care giving qualities. Lots of pictures and communication every day. Even on short notice and on top of that our pup started going into a heat cycle while in her care. Tara kept us updated and made sure our pup was safe, loved, and cared for. Could not be happier with this experience and I highly recommend Tara!”
“He has experience in taking care of a high energy dog, at first I was cautious as I dont know how yoki will be with kids 10 under, but he did ok. Jarrad was trying to figure out how to work the apps but eventually was able to send photos. Will see him next time!”
“Freddy & Talena J. took amazing care of Hoot while we were away! From the start, they were friendly, professional, and made us feel completely comfortable leaving him in their care. They kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind knowing Hoot was happy and well cared for. It's clear they genuinely love animals and treat them like family. Hoot came home happy, healthy, and well-loved. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust Freddy & Talena to watch Hoot again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Cindy and Steve were the best hosts we could have asked for our pup. The yard is perfect with lots of room to run around, and we got timely updates on Ruger's status including photos and videos. I would definitely go back to them in future.”
