“Great experience with Karen! Our dogs were very well cared for and clearly had a great time. We felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands, and they came home happy and relaxed. I would absolutely use Karen again and recommend her to other pet parents.”
“Marley was very well taken care of. I didnt worry about him at all. They sent pics and video. They took him for walks. We will use again for sure. Very very nice people!”
“Carla and her family were amazing with Sky! Sky was so happy in the pictures Carla sent to us. Thank you so much for taking great care of her. See you again in a couple of weeks. ❤️❤️”
“Our dog & cat LOVED their stay of 5 days with Alain and his family! Really enjoyed getting updates and videos throughout their stay. They came home happy and relaxed, unlike our past experiences boarding at kennels in the past. Hoping to have them stay whenever we need to board them. Big thumbs up!!”
“Xena had a great time. This was her first time away from home with strangers. There was plenty for her to do and lots of company. We dropped her off happy and picked her up happy.”
“Skye had so much fun and so much love staying with Thomas and Lyndsay! They are great caregivers!! My mind was so at ease knowing she was so well taken care of while we were far away. I highly recommend them.”
“Diana was great taking care Dexter. Everything great. We received daily pics and videos of Dexter. He also got a grooming while there. Thank you so much for your great service.”
“Krista was absolutely wonderful with our dog! From the start, she was incredibly sweet and kept us completely at ease with frequent photo updates and check-ins whenever it was time for meals or walks. Her home is spotless, and the fenced-in yard provided the perfect environment for play and exercise. It was clear they were a perfect match—Krista had nothing but great things to say about Kali, which made us feel so comfortable leaving her in her care. To top it off, she was incredibly accommodating when our travel plans changed last minute; she didn't hesitate to let our dog stay an extra night when we realized we wouldn't make the original pickup time. We will definitely be booking with Krista again!”
“Marcia was insanely wonderful to my boy the three days she cared for him. I have to admit, while he is still young, he came home better behaved after spending time with her. She was very tentative to him and me throughout our trip away and I think they loved each other equally! If I ever need a sitter again, I will definitely be using Marcia!”
“Emily, Aaron, their two boys, and their little Yorkie were super to deal with. They have a wonderful home, and yard, set up very nicely for my dog Snoogums to visit. I felt very comfortable with the arrangement. They sent me photos throughout the stay, with my dog playing, going on walks, sleeping. and playing. I felt comfort while on my trip with their communications. I would definitely repeat with them while away on my next trip. A definite A+ Dale & Snoogums”
“Erika (and her daughter!) were absolutely wonderful with our puppy, Covey. She sent plenty of photos and updates throughout his stay, and it was so clear that they both genuinely enjoyed spending time with him. They treated him like family — playful, loving, and attentive to all his little quirks. It gave us total peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. We’d trust Erika and her daughter with Covey anytime and can’t recommend them enough! 💛🐶”
“As usual, Khaos had a fantastic time. She caught an upset stomach but Natasha and Gaspere were quick to communicate about it and did everything they could to help soothe it. I’m very grateful that my pup is always in good hands here.”
“Gulcin took amazing care of my two cats. I boarded them at her home and they could not have been more comfortable, happier, or better cared for. Would absolutely recommend this sitter.”
“She did very good with our pitbull mix. He can be fearful and is anxious when he’s not with his people and it was great to get photo updates of him during his stay. Also flexible on return time when our event we had to travel for was running late.”
“Celea was absolutely amazing from the time of the meet and great to the time she cared for my dogs. They were so nervous for me to leave them but they warmed right up and I was able to see that from the pictures and videos she sent me on a daily basis. She has a huge heart for dogs and it shows!! Wonderful!! Will be using her again.”
“Cesar was amazing with Hershey! From the moment we met, I could tell he genuinely cares about animals. He kept me updated throughout the stay with pictures and messages, and Hershey looked so happy and comfortable. It meant a lot knowing my dog was in such good hands. I highly recommend Cesar and would absolutely trust him with Hershey again. Thank you for taking such great care of my baby! 🐾❤️”
“Cynthia and her family did an amazing job watching AK during our long weekend trip. Cynthia sent daily updates, videos, and photos during AK's stay in their home. Cynthia took the time to ask all important questions to ensure AK was well cared for and adjusted to her know in a comfortable manner. Cynthia was kind to adjust the stay and allow AK to stay another night due to delay in travel plans. When arriving home after picking up AK Cynthia included a sweet picture of AK during his stay in her home. We will definitely be using Cynthia and her family's services again.”

I know every cat has a unique personality, and I work patiently to earn their trust so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away.

“Our dog has done weekly daycare with Pamela for about two years, that’s easily 100 times- and I would recommend her 100 times over. She’s also boarded our dog and checked in on our cat when traveling. Pamela is great at communicating during a stay and always takes the best pictures of our pup. She genuinely loves her job and every dog that she works with she treats as her own. I’ve never worried about my dog with her and any issues (dogs not immediately getting along) have always been quickly and thoroughly communicated. The pack of daycare dogs she made has been amazing at socializing our dog and wearing her out. Our dog is so excited to go to Pamela’s every single time and sleeps so well that night. Pamela is truly unique in how she runs her daycare and the services she provides. Any dog that gets to spend the day with her is well loved and cared for. I can’t recommend her enough!!!”

Playtime and walks are plentiful, and I respect the dietary routines and restrictions provided by pet owners. I make sure each pet receives one-on-one attention, keeping a keen eye on their mood and health. In a client's home, I respect the pet's routine and the owner's space.

For both cases, I stay in frequent communication with the pet owners, providing updates and cute photos to keep them connected with their furry friends. The well-being and happiness of pets and their owners are my top priority

Over time, I’ve learned that every pet has their own unique personality and needs, and I always take the time to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Hi, I’m Nate 🐾 If you’re looking for reliable weekend pet care, I’m here to help! I know how important it is to have someone you can trust when you’re away, and I specialize in providing attentive, loving care for pets exclusively on the weekends. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your furry friend company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and personalities—from energetic pups who need plenty of exercise to laid-back cats who prefer snuggles and quiet time. Hi, I’m Nate 🐾 I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their own home, and that’s why I offer loving, reliable care right where they’re happiest. When I care for your pet in your home, I stick closely to their usual routine so they feel safe and stress-free while you’re away.
About: I've been pet sitting for about 10 years, I have experience with large and small breeds, young and old. I just enjoy helping pets feel happy and loved while their owners are away. I work part time and have flexible hours in the afternoons and evenings. I am also very flexible with staying at client's homes for pet sitting especially on weekends because I don't work those days. Every pet has their specific routine and needs, I am very detail oriented and will make sure that their routine will carry on just like you would do for them.
About: I’ve always taken care of and had a love for dogs since I was a little girl! I’m very active and love to walk and play with our 2 dogs!” And would love to do the same with yours! I’m currently a stay at home mom with my toddler and 2 dogs! So my availability is very open! Would love to spend my free time with your dogs! I just moved to the area and get my 2 dogs a fenced in yard so they can run! We play and enjoy walks in our neighborhood!
“The BEST! Very kind and caring. Our Lincoln loves him and gets so excited he runs to the front door at the mention of Barry’s name any time of day. So grateful we found him on Rover!”
About: I’ve loved cats and dogs my whole life, caring for pets since I was a child. For the past two years I’ve worked as a vet tech, combining that lifelong passion with hands-on medical care, and support for pets and their owners. My experience blends deep affection for animals with practical skills in their health and well‑being. I usually work at a vet clinic from 8:00 AM–5:00 PM with a lunch break at 12:00 PM. During my shift I check on the animals, feed and water them, and let them out. After work, I get home, the animals are free for the rest of the night. I prioritize maintaining the specific rhythm and comfort they’re used to at your home. I strictly follow your feeding schedules and medical routines, ensuring they have a dedicated, cozy space to retreat to whenever they need a nap. For dogs, this means plenty of structured walks and backyard playtime, while for cats, I provide vertical perches and dedicated one-on-one enrichment to satisfy their curiosity. Above all, I keep a close eye on their body language to ensure they feel secure and loved, and I’ll send you regular photo updates so you can see exactly how much fun and relaxation they’re having while you're away.

About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been a big part of my life. From dogs and cats to other furry, feathered, and even scaly friends, I’ve spent my whole life making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Being around animals brings me joy, and I take pride in treating each one as if they were my own. My passion for animals isn’t just a hobby it’s something I want to continue doing for years to come, giving every pet the love, attention, and care they need. I don’t have a job so I think this will be a great starter job to start with since I love animals and been around them my whole life I have a dog she is two years old and she loves to run and play outside and inside and she loves people. She sleeps in her bed and in mine. She loves her alone time but also wants attention and she always gets it.
About: Since the age of seven, I have nurtured a passion for caring for animals, growing up in an environment surrounded by livestock and participating in animal shows. Additionally, I have gained experience as a veterinary technician assistant at an animal hospital. Incorporating pet care into my daily routine involves feeding, walking, and playing with clients pets. Weekly, I able to give quality time to ensure their well-being and happiness. Caring for pets in my home and clients' homes typically includes providing adequate food and fresh water, ensuring regular exercise through walks and playtime, maintaining cleanliness by tidying living areas, administering medications if needed, and offering companionship and attention to meet their emotional needs. For clients, I also tailor care to their specific instructions and routines, ensuring a consistent environment for the pets while their owners are away.
About: I have loved caring for animals since I was a child. Walking and feeding our German Shepherd was my favorite part of the day. We also had a Chow and one feline. Training Rocky the rottweiler to remain calm while bunnies passed through the yard is my biggest accomplishment, thus far. I love working with animals and their energy. On Thursday morning I teach guided Meditation but make my own schedule other than that. I'm up early to watch the sun rise and greet all the neighbors and pups. Animals prefer and are most comfortable being in their own environment with the scent of loved ones surrounding them. I respect their boundaries and connect with their energy softly and respectfully.

“Our dog & cat LOVED their stay of 5 days with Alain and his family! Really enjoyed getting updates and videos throughout their stay. They came home happy and relaxed, unlike our past experiences boarding at kennels in the past. Hoping to have them stay whenever we need to board them. Big thumbs up!!”
“Xena had a great time. This was her first time away from home with strangers. There was plenty for her to do and lots of company. We dropped her off happy and picked her up happy.”
“Skye had so much fun and so much love staying with Thomas and Lyndsay! They are great caregivers!! My mind was so at ease knowing she was so well taken care of while we were far away. I highly recommend them.”
“Diana was great taking care Dexter. Everything great. We received daily pics and videos of Dexter. He also got a grooming while there. Thank you so much for your great service.”
“Krista was absolutely wonderful with our dog! From the start, she was incredibly sweet and kept us completely at ease with frequent photo updates and check-ins whenever it was time for meals or walks. Her home is spotless, and the fenced-in yard provided the perfect environment for play and exercise. It was clear they were a perfect match—Krista had nothing but great things to say about Kali, which made us feel so comfortable leaving her in her care. To top it off, she was incredibly accommodating when our travel plans changed last minute; she didn't hesitate to let our dog stay an extra night when we realized we wouldn't make the original pickup time. We will definitely be booking with Krista again!”
“Marcia was insanely wonderful to my boy the three days she cared for him. I have to admit, while he is still young, he came home better behaved after spending time with her. She was very tentative to him and me throughout our trip away and I think they loved each other equally! If I ever need a sitter again, I will definitely be using Marcia!”
“Erika (and her daughter!) were absolutely wonderful with our puppy, Covey. She sent plenty of photos and updates throughout his stay, and it was so clear that they both genuinely enjoyed spending time with him. They treated him like family — playful, loving, and attentive to all his little quirks. It gave us total peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. We’d trust Erika and her daughter with Covey anytime and can’t recommend them enough! 💛🐶”
“As usual, Khaos had a fantastic time. She caught an upset stomach but Natasha and Gaspere were quick to communicate about it and did everything they could to help soothe it. I’m very grateful that my pup is always in good hands here.”
“Gulcin took amazing care of my two cats. I boarded them at her home and they could not have been more comfortable, happier, or better cared for. Would absolutely recommend this sitter.”
“Cesar was amazing with Hershey! From the moment we met, I could tell he genuinely cares about animals. He kept me updated throughout the stay with pictures and messages, and Hershey looked so happy and comfortable. It meant a lot knowing my dog was in such good hands. I highly recommend Cesar and would absolutely trust him with Hershey again. Thank you for taking such great care of my baby! 🐾❤️”
“Summit is awesome! Not only was he able to take our Matrix on short notice, he arranged a meet and greet prior to service. He is kind, listens, and is extremely knowledgeable in all areas of training, breeds, and making dogs and owners comfortable. Our dog had a blast and we didn’t have to worry. Will most definatly book again with Summit.”
“Claudia is amazing! She always sends pictures and updates. This is the second time Thor has stayed with her and her family, and we couldn’t be more happy and comforted to leave him with them. Thor is very picky when it comes to eating and she was very accommodating with this, we highly recommend! 😊”
“We can't thank Maria enough for her kindness and flexibility in accommodating our last-minute request for Pluto's care. From the moment we connected, she was beyond wonderful—thoughtful, responsive, and genuinely caring. She kept us updated throughout the entire reservation with pictures, giving us complete peace of mind. Pluto was clearly happy and well cared for! On top of that, Maria has the most gentle giant of a dog, who made Pluto feel right at home. The experience was seamless, and we truly appreciate her warmth and dedication. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again! Highly recommended!”
“This was our first boarding experience using Rover. We are very pleased with the ease of the reservation system. From coordinating a “meet and greet” with Jill to drop off and pick up we are very pleased. Jill sent a photo of Mocha while we were away. All seemed to go very well and we will definitely request Jill to keep Mocha for us when we have dog sitting needs!”
“Danayrys was an amazing dog sitter! My dog stayed at her home for a few days, and I couldn’t have asked for better care. She sent me daily pictures and kept me updated the entire time, which gave me so much peace of mind. She also had to give him oral medication and did a great job with it, which really showed her patience and responsibility. It was clear that my dog was comfortable, well cared for, and treated with so much love.”
“Elaine was great! Her place and clean and comfy perfect for the pups! She sent great photos and updates daily. Our pups loved playing with her daughter as well! Would definitely book again!”
“Lori and her family took excellent care of my dog and cat in her home while we were out of town. She sent frequent updates and pictures and was always checking in with me which I greatly appreciated. I would 100% book with Lori again next time we go out of town.”
