“Lisa and Scott treated Darla like she was their own. Allowed her to be who she is. Being a rescue I didnt know if she had interacted with other dogs. They were very good about introducing Darla to their dogs. HIGHLY recommend.”
“Clary looked after my puppy for a weekend, and she did an excellent job. She maintained communication throughout the stay and was accommodating with pickup times. She was friendly, and my puppy came back to me happy and healthy. I highly recommend her as a top-notch dog sitter.”
“Chandler took care of our 2 dogs. He was attentive and sent us updates and videos. He is very reasonably priced and accommodating. We will definitely use his services again!”
“We were concerned having to leave Violet with anyone because of the Jack Russell mix, she is full of playful energy. Dona was up for the challenge and Violet was happy when we picked her up running around in her back yard. Dona will be our -GO TO- for any future pet sitting needs. Having an open schedule during a Holiday was a plus. Having boarded our previous pets her availability gave us comfort that our Violet she was not spending the weekend boarded.”
“Janel & Jeff were absolutely wonderful. They are such kind people who clearly love dogs. They sent regular updates and pictures of Nyla which we really appreciated. I would 100% book them again! Thanks again!!”
“My sweet beagle Maisy and I are both truly blessed to have found David & Vicki on Rover! She is always excited when she hops out of the car and realizes that she is at her "home away from home". You will not find more competent & loving care for your pet.”
“Our fur baby felt right at home with Stephanie! He was treated like a king and was happy and relaxed while away from home. The daily updates and pics gave us peace of mind. We've already booked our next stay!”
“We are so thankful we found Anne to take care of our Jiggy. She goes above and beyond to make sure he’s well taken care. She treats him like her own, and Jiggy loves to go to see her ! There’s not enough stars or space here to express how happy with Anne,”
“My experience was great! Good communication and I received photos throughout the stay. I liked that they meet us before the stay to ensure it’s a good fit. Thank you!”
“Lindsey was so wonderful with my babyboy. Kept in touch with messages, pictures, and videos. I swear my lil man had the biggest smile. I wouldn’t hesitate to refer her to anyone. I know I will a repeat client.”
“Jean and Al did a great job with Biscuit. They accepted him on short notice so we could have a beach day out. He had a full day and enjoyed playing with their pups. Jean sent me text updates and a couple of photos. He came home worn out and ready to nap.”
“Thanks, Laura, for having Tuxy for the week. I know he's happy to spend time there because he runs into the house when he gets there, excited to have play time! The photos Laura sends are helpful when you're gone for more than a day. I can see him playing and napping and know he's well cared for.”
“Betsy provided great communication and sent frequent pictures with updates on my 2 dogs she cared for. She has a huge backyard that’s fenced in with lots of room to run and play. My dogs must have felt like they were on vacation. Betsy was very professional and responsive. She provided great care and we will be using her services again.”
“Grace took such amazing care of Bella, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch her. She kept sending us pictures all the time, which made us feel so comfortable and reassured seeing Bella happy and well taken care of. What really stood out was how much Grace cared about doing things the right way — she asked thoughtful questions about where Bella sleeps, how she eats, and what works best for her. You could tell she genuinely wanted to give Bella the best care possible. She was kind, attentive, and truly treated Bella like her own. I felt completely comfortable leaving Bella with her, and that peace of mind means everything. Highly recommend Grace to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring.”
“Sibrena was amazing with my dog who requires a lot of attention. She sent me pictures to keep me up to date with the happenings of her day. Thank you so much for caring for my dog!”
“Joanna + family are the perfect sitters for our beloved Malcolm!! Doggie friends to play with, plenty of room, fenced backyard. He was in heaven! Joanna is professional, organized, friendly and experienced, and took our request very last minute. Extremely responsive on the text-app with info and pictures and we felt like we could really relax on our vacation. Highly Recommended! We will be back!! Thank You Joanna :)”
“This is the first time we have used Rover and Lynn exceeded our expectations. She was wonderful with our very anxious aussie and we 100% trusted her! She sent pictures often which was a nice added touch for peace of mind. Thank you for taking such good care of our fur baby, Lynn!”
“Jenna did a great job taking care of Bonnie and Lucy from Sunday morning through Wednesday afternoon. Our dogs were clearly well cared for, and it was a big plus that her two dogs got along and played nicely with ours, which helped keep them active and happy. Communication was good overall, and she was responsive when needed. The dogs came home healthy and in good spirits, and we appreciated her care while we were away. We’d be comfortable using Jenna again and appreciate her help.”

“I think Rada is a cat whisperer! My George is not usually a sweet boy but Rada tamed him no problem. I hope she will be available next time I need a sitter. She actually spent time with him and I really appreciate that.”
“Nelson and Donna were amazing! They watched my very shy cat and were still so kind and gave him all the attention. They even swept my apartment for me! I couldn’t recommend them enough.”
“Karina did a great job with our kitties. We could tell she was the one by the way she approached each of them when she came by in our pre-visit. She kept us in the loop while we were gone and was prompt and complete during her visits. We'll use her again if available for our future trips away.”
“Fantastic sitter! I had to leave my kitties home for the holiday weekend, and Andrea came to my rescue! She conducted morning and evening check ins on my kitties. She went above and beyond in ensuring my kitties were well taken care of. In addition to the responsibilities I’ve outlined (which she conducted very well), she has the perspective of a pet owner herself, so she’d text me during visits if I would also like her to trim nails, sweep the area around the litter box, etc. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your furbabies as her own, look no further than Andrea!”
“This was an excellent experience Katherine was on time every day and Oliver was well taken care of. All drop in visits lasted the full half an hour. I highly recommend Katherine she was amazing.”
“Victoria did an amazing job and took care of all of our fur babies and even cuddled with them. Thank you Victoria we appreciate you and look forward to our next trip and you taking care of our fur babies”
About: I’ve grown up with cats and many dogs, helped care for weeks old puppies and have gained the trust of my neighbors growing up as well, Maltese's, chihuahua, British bulldog, golden retriever, German Shepard to name a few, I currently own a beautiful tabby cat myself :)
About: My mom was jealous as she had eyes only for me waiting me at the door knowing exactly when I would be coming home, even if it was never the same time. When she died I was so sad. Then I had a kitty that brought me 6 new born kittens. It was fun and interesting having them all.

About: Starting at age 9 I raised pigs on my grandpas farm and showed them in the fair. I then decided to become vegan at age 13 after realizing the brutal way animals were treated. Last year I enrolled as a foster parent for the local animal shelter. I fostered a sweet, active pit bull named Rebel for two months. Then I fostered a few kittens. I now have my cat that’s grown up with me since I was 4. Unfortunately I can’t commit to having my own dog right now which is why I am on Rover. I have also fostered a kitten from the street that needed to be bottle fed and kept warm. I have open availability to pet sit as I am in the process of finding a job. I can start at 8 am and work till 8pm. I give plenty of pet scratches, it is just as much for me as it is for them. I value pets health, and I enjoy seeing animals get proper exercise and good nutrition. I make sure the pets in my care are in good health.
About: I love dogs and have been around them my entire life. I have had family dogs since I was 8 years old. I now own a 3 and a half year old english bulldog/pug mix who is super friendly and loves to be around other dogs! I also own a 4 year old german shepherd, who is also super friendly and loves to play. I do live in a house with a fenced year for plenty of room to run around. I have plenty of toys to play with, but you are welcome to provide your own! I do request that you provide their food and treats. I work remotely giving me the ability to be able to be attentive to your animal and have flexibility. I am free on mornings, late afternoons and evenings. I have a good sized yard for the dogs to play. I want every dog to feel the least amount of disruption/stress, so I try to ensure their typical daily routine is followed when staying with me.
About: Pets are like family. They need love and attention too. I have a way with dogs and can help with training pups too. I like cats and other animals as well, but specifically have had dogs my whole life. I'm an esthetician, working part time. I have shorter shifts on Tues and Wed in the afternoon/evening. Sunday is my long day I'd have no availability. I can do walking, brushing, feeding, and some training. Leave a list of preferences, and where to find essentials, and I'll get it done with allotted time within reason.
“Ellie was absolutely wonderful! She took excellent care of all 5 of my babies, and was very communicative while we were gone. She went above and beyond with house sitting and will definitely be my go-to going forward.”

About: I've taken care of animals since I was younger. We've had quite a few different types of animals from bunnies and hamsters to cats and dogs. It fits easily into my routine because I'm home all the time. I don't go anywhere really and I have plenty of free time to spare. I have a fenced in back yard, I have a big house with plenty of room for them, and I have a few other animals that are friendly.
About: First time discount just ask thank you! My experience with animals is amazing! I’m so happy I can wake up and know I can do something I love! Your pet is so important to me, Anything you need I will be able to provide for them. I have learned so much so fast! It takes about 3 days for a dog to get used to a new environment so I give them a lot of attention for the first three days then I’m able to let them be themselves. They start to act normal and I love to see them show the cool side of themselves after those 3 days or when they stay again I work from home and it’s a part time job so only about 10 to 20 hours a week! The dog will be with me the whole time so yes they will get everything they need the whole stay and never be alone! Your pet will be tired and happy but ready for us to hangout again. Everything will be handled during their stay just let me know what is needed!
“Best service ever! Kristin was in constant communication with us. We received plenty of pictures and even FaceTime with our FurBaby. Great Job ladies. Thank you”
About: Taken care of many different dogs in various shapes, sizes, and breeds. As a dog owner, my dog and I went through all the training to help her receive “Canine Good Citizen.” I utilize positive reinforcement and appropriate walking etiquette. Remote worker, so my evenings are weekends open to care for your sweet fur family member. During the day, I focus on my fur babies. As a dog walker, I allow the dog to sniff and take their time to navigate before moving too quickly along. Upon first meeting, I take the time for the dog to warm up. Lots of patience and love… and maybe treats if allowed.
“Lisa and Scott were so warm and friendly. Really put this nervous dog mom at ease. I haven’t left my fur baby with anyone but a close friend and he doesn’t like many people but he seemed to settle in and snuggle before too long. I was nervous with him around bigger dogs but their two pups are giving him space to adjust. Thanks for taking such good care of my Rocky.”
“Cannot recommend enough! Best doggy daycare around. Max and Luna (her pups) are precious angels, and Joanna is so sweet, kind, accommodating and will care for your pets like they are her own. My dog is a member of my family and I would trust Joanna with her in any and every situation. 100/10 recommend”
About: I have had pets almost my entire life from dogs, cats, birds, and hamsters. I have not had reptiles of my own but like them too. Animals are a life commitment and I have seen many throughout their entire life including senior and end of life care. I genuinely love animals. They are part of our family. Yours will be cared for as if they are a member of my family. Currently, Maverick, a black lab is my soulmate. He is well-trained, intelligent, full of joy and great with other dogs. His favorite pastime is playing ball or just running around the yard with a ball in his mouth. He enjoys going for rides and adventures such as going to the park or beach. He loves to swim and play in the water. I am retired and available anytime, night or day. I am also on call for emergency situations as well, allowing same day bookings. I truly understand the importance of taking care of our special family members and there are times when circumstances are beyond our control. I am not available for boarding or house sitting because I have Maverick. If you are looking for boarding or overnight care, please consider scheduling multiple drop-in visits for times that fit their routine or we can discuss other alternatives to ensure your babies needs are met. My home is obviously dog friendly and the yard is secure. Maverick is mostly indoors due to the heat. Car rides, adventures, walks, indoor a s outdoor playtime, along with water activities are incorporated. Maverick is not a cuddle bug but he does like to relax with me on the couch.
“This was the first time we left Jake at Laura‘s house. And I think he did really well. Being a rescue, Jake is a little leery about a lot of people and unknown environments. Overall, I think he did really well, and I am very optimistic about Laura being his pet sitter. Thank you Laura for being patient with Jake.”

About: I have had multiple dogs over the years from puppies to seniors. I recently lost my 18 year old hound. My experience with him gave me a lot of experience with senior dogs. Loss of mobility, dementia and seperation anxiety. Pre Covid I had a small home business walking and caring for other's pets. Caring for you pet is my only job. My goal is to have your pet feel as safe and comfortable with me as they do with you. I recently retired and have a wide open schedule. I am very flexable with few if any commitments in my private life. Early and late hours are available I will treat you pet as if they were my own. I have the utmost respect for clients home as well as their pets routine and needs
About: I love animals ever since I was young age, especially how difference their personalities are! They have their own needs and wants which something I’m willing to learn no matter the size. Just give me the routine and I’ll follow it with no problems, they’ll be loved and cared for while you’re away! I volunteered in one rescue back in my hometown while growing up so preparing special food, walking/exercising, giving treats (especially to the good boys/girls!) are on my list! I also have basic grooming experience so brushing, basic teeth cleaning, cutting nails, cleaning face are on my list of experiences! I’m also not afraid to get down dirty when needing to bath a dirty dog! I also have reptiles so I am knowledgeable to majority of the scaly babies!! Currently I have a Mexican Black Kingsnake, African FatTail gecko and recently to my big fur family a Veiled Chameleon. So if you have your scaly babies, I’ll be more than happy to take care of them as well! I currently work from home and I want to go out of the house and do something productive! What’s more than doing it with fluffy animals! I’m able to go outside more without needing to spend money so I thought might as well combine my love animals and going outside. It’s a win-win since I can take care of your babies while you’re busy and I can be outside of my house!! I currently live in a gated community, we have our own little dog park within the community. I also live in a 3 story apartment so if your cats end staying for the night they’ll have penalty if not more space to have their night zoomies!

“Meet & Greet went great! Rada is was so nice! 10/10 recommend. She was so friendly with the dogs right off the bat, sat right on the floor and got to know them. Walks seem to have gone great! Booked relatively last minute and she was super accommodating/ flexible. Right on time as planned and dogs seem so happy / content which is all I can really ask for.

I am extremely respectful of other people’s homes, knowing it can be very uncomfortable, allowing strangers into the home.

“Lindsey was so wonderful with my babyboy. Kept in touch with messages, pictures, and videos. I swear my lil man had the biggest smile. I wouldn’t hesitate to refer her to anyone. I know I will a repeat client.”
“Jean and Al did a great job with Biscuit. They accepted him on short notice so we could have a beach day out. He had a full day and enjoyed playing with their pups. Jean sent me text updates and a couple of photos. He came home worn out and ready to nap.”
“Thanks, Laura, for having Tuxy for the week. I know he's happy to spend time there because he runs into the house when he gets there, excited to have play time! The photos Laura sends are helpful when you're gone for more than a day. I can see him playing and napping and know he's well cared for.”
“Betsy provided great communication and sent frequent pictures with updates on my 2 dogs she cared for. She has a huge backyard that’s fenced in with lots of room to run and play. My dogs must have felt like they were on vacation. Betsy was very professional and responsive. She provided great care and we will be using her services again.”
“Joanna + family are the perfect sitters for our beloved Malcolm!! Doggie friends to play with, plenty of room, fenced backyard. He was in heaven! Joanna is professional, organized, friendly and experienced, and took our request very last minute. Extremely responsive on the text-app with info and pictures and we felt like we could really relax on our vacation. Highly Recommended! We will be back!! Thank You Joanna :)”
“Jenna did a great job taking care of Bonnie and Lucy from Sunday morning through Wednesday afternoon. Our dogs were clearly well cared for, and it was a big plus that her two dogs got along and played nicely with ours, which helped keep them active and happy. Communication was good overall, and she was responsive when needed. The dogs came home healthy and in good spirits, and we appreciated her care while we were away. We’d be comfortable using Jenna again and appreciate her help.”
“She was amazing! Send so many pictures of my sweet boy playing with the other dogs in her huge yard! She also sent various updates each day of his activities and sleep.”
“This was my first time using Tracee. She is absolutely fabulous! Communication was outstanding. Plenty of pictures and responses right away. I was out of town during Hurricane Debbie and couldn’t get home. Without hesitation Tracee was willing to keep my fur babies an extra night. It was a delight using Tracee. I would highly recommend Tracee and I will use her again in the future.”
“Becky was so good with my fur baby. This is his first time with a stranger. Started a little slow, wouldn't eat. Made me sad. Then he was happy as can be. Loved running in her fenced back yard. Definitely use her again.”
About: Hey neighbors! 🌼 We all know the feeling: the schedule is packed, but your furry friend is itching to explore the world. Since I grew up with two dogs of my own, I truly miss that daily "dog energy" and would love to put my experience to good use by keeping your pup active and happy!🥰 Whether you have a high-energy zoomie-king or a cozy senior who prefers a slow sniff-around—I’ll move at your dog’s pace. A bit about me: • Life-long experience: Having raised one dog myself (Poodle) an was Born in a Dog Loving Family (Family Dog: Bouvier) I'm very comfortable with different temperaments and behaviors. I currently have a very open schedule and can be completely flexible with timing. Whether it’s a last-minute walk or a long adventure, I’m available whenever your dog needs me.✨ Since I raised a dog of my own, I understand that every pet has its own personality and specific needs. Here is how I approach care: In the client's home: My priority is maintaining the dog's routine to keep them stress-free. I focus on clear communication with the owner regarding feeding schedules, favorite walking routes, and any 'house rules.' I treat every home with the utmost respect and ensure the dog feels safe and companionship-focused while their owner is away. During walks and care: I don’t just 'walk' the dog; I engage with them. Because I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time, I can offer extended sessions and don't have to rush. I’m also very observant of body language to ensure they are always comfortable and safe in every situation. • Senior-dogs-Walks • High-Energy- Runs • Training-Integration
“If I could give six stars I would. Kristie and her daughter were wonderful friends to my dog over Thanksgiving break, and I didn’t worry for a second. She is great about sending pictures and videos, and I can tell in all of them that Indo had an amazing time and was given a lot of love and attention!”
“Frankie gives Dzeni and Kathy all the stars, all the tail wags, and possibly a few bonus zoomies. He had the best time with them and came home happy, loved, and clearly convinced he had been on his own little vacation. They were wonderful with him — kind, attentive, reliable, and clearly dog people in the best possible way. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in their care, and Frankie would absolutely pack his tiny imaginary suitcase to go back again. Highly recommend! Frankie says 10/10, would visit again, especially if treats and attention are involved.”
“Jen was an absolute angel helping with Journey during a transportation hiccup and scheduling miscommunication between my trainer and me. I needed someone to bridge the gap between Journey being dropped off by her transporter and my trainer's daughter being available to receive her, and Jen stepped in without hesitation. Despite the uncertainty around the transport timing and ultimately an early 6:00 AM drop-off, she was communicative, flexible, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. She not only took wonderful care of Journey, but also coordinated the final handoff and personally dropped her off for me, making what could have been a very stressful situation feel seamless. She sent photo updates, kept me informed every step of the way, and treated Journey like one of her own. I truly can't thank her enough. If you're considering booking with Jen, I would do so without hesitation. She went above and beyond in every way. ★★★★★ Highly recommend!”
“Jean and her husband were so great with our pup! They took really good care of her and sent us updates and pictures every day while we were away. You could tell they really care and gave our fur baby lots of attention and love! It was so nice having peace of mind knowing our girl was well taken care of. Would definitely book with them again!”
“Katie and Patrick took expert and loving care of Duckie, our 10 month Great Dane puppy. This was her first home-away stay, and we couldn't be more pleased! Katie has extensive knowledge of different breeds, and she certainly knows Great Danes. We could tell from the numerous videos and pics that Duckie was having a great time, running around and socializing with the other dogs. A+, worry-free stay. She was well- taken care of. We will most definitely be using Katie again. Thank you, Katie and Gang!”
