“We had a wonderful experience with Jelisa! She was incredibly flexible with both drop-off and pick-up times, which made our schedule so much easier to manage. Throughout the stay, she kept us updated with daily messages and sent plenty of pictures, which really gave us peace of mind while we were away. Most importantly, it was clear that she was very loving and attentive with our dog. You could tell our baby was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. We truly appreciated the communication and kindness shown, and we would absolutely trust her to watch our dog again. Highly recommend!”

“Heather and her husband were so patient with Miley when she developed an unexpected bout of separation anxiety. She and her family went above and beyond to help Miley settle in. I'm grateful for the updates she provided - Miley clearly had fun with other dogs and kids around. I highly recommend Heather and her family to others looking for exceptional care for your pets.”

“This was my puppy’s first time away from me and she was very shy and probably nervous. Judith was so sweet and understanding with her. She was constantly communicating with me and sending pictures and videos. This was also my first experience with Rover and it was a great one.”

“Jess and her family took in my Shepherd as if she were a member of their own household. Issa is a temperamental dog who does not trust easily; however, she felt secure immediately and received ample attention and affection. Throughout my week away, I was regularly updated with messages and photographs. I paid for the pickup and drop-off services provided, which I found to be affordable and highly convenient, allowing me to leave town on schedule without unnecessary stress upon my return. I highly recommend her services.”


“Alexis is very kind and an excellent communicator. Her home is spacious and has just the right energy for your furbaby. She is organized and made sure that I was able to drop off and pick up at my desired time. She sent me updates which made me feel very comfortable that my pup was having a great time and adjusted well! She was able to maintain his high energy and he obviously loved that! I know he had a great time in her care and we will be back!”

“It was my first time using Rover.com app for Boarding Services for my 8 month old Labadoole, Rusty, while I travelled internationally. I was a bit apprehensive, since Rusty can be a handfull with energy to burn. Gabby ressured me Rusty will be fine, she's had plenty of experience with Labadooles. I must say, I was impressed when Gabby texted me advising Rusty was vomitting and having diarrhea. We came up with a plan to eliminate the food toppers & treats & only provide Rusty the dry food, and it worked. Rusty was fine after a few hours. Gabby kept in communication with me, sending videos & pictures of Rusty, which made me feel much better Boarding Rusty with Gabby. I would recommend Gabby for your Pet Boarding Service, and I would definiately use her service again.”

“Excellent care of my 2 pups. When I brought their beds in from the car they sniffed the sitters house for a while. The sent photos are like Glamor Shots and sent multiple a day. They were definitely spoiled during their stay. They have a large Mastiff, but he's a sweetheart. Would definitely recommend.”


“Brett and Sandra cared my pup as if she was their own. My dog is a rescue and can be skittish and easily overwhelmed. Neither of that occurred, she seemed to have a great time. I’m lucky she willingly came home with me!! I could not recommend them more highly.”


About: I’ve taken care of animals all of my life honestly. I was always told I had a “bee charm” because I’ve never had a bad experience with any animal, even ones others have labeled aggressive or unfriendly. I treat my animals like my babies. They’re people who just don’t speak English to me. I work in the restaurant industry so I don’t work long hours and I’m flexible. My sister is also a rover sister and she spends a lot of time at my house. I have a fenced yard in the back that my dog loves to sun bath in and do his business. I have a nice quiet neighborhood that we love to take walks around. My house is full of love. Me and my children love animals. Some would even say we baby them. My sweet boy sleeps at the end of my bed and when I leave I like to put on a movie or pandora so he doesn’t feel alone.
About: I provide attentive, high-quality in-home boarding with a focus on comfort, safety, and personalized care. My goal is to create a reliable, low-stress experience where your dog feels secure, cared for, and completely at home. Because I work from home, your dog will receive consistent supervision, companionship, and a calm, structured environment throughout their stay. A typical day includes a morning walk before work, lunchtime fetch and unlimited potty breaks. My husband and I share our home with two well-socialized, friendly dogs who are fully up to date on vaccinations and genuinely enjoy the company of other dogs in their fully fenced in backyard and a very friendly cat (that believes he is one of the dogs). I’m experienced in caring for pets for friends and family, and I approach every stay with the same level of care and responsibility I would expect for my own pets. Each dog’s routine is thoughtfully maintained, including daily walks, enrichment, and plenty of one-on-one attention. For dogs who enjoy the water, I also offer supervised swim time with owner approval.
“Kristine watched our border collie during 4th of July. Our pup is scared of fireworks but Kristine put in extra care and work to make sure she was more than comfortable during that time. She took her to play at the beach, sent great pictures and was very communicative. It’s clear Kristine is extremely knowledgeable with all types of dogs. Definitely will be having Kristine watch our dog again, my husband and I both recommend you book with her!”

“Anna was amazing with my Shadow. You couldn’t ask for a better sitter than she is. I would highly recommend her to anyone for your animal sitting needs. She treats them as if they were her fur baby. I’m will be definitely using her again in the future.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all sizes and personalities. I grew up with dogs and currently have two friendly Labradors who keep me active and always entertained! Whether it’s going for walks, playing fetch, or just providing a cozy and safe environment while you’re away, I treat every dog like part of the family. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust—and I’ll always make sure your pet is loved, well cared for, and happy. If your dog enjoys companionship, belly rubs, or just needs a calm, consistent routine, I’ve got you covered! As of now I have an open availability, meaning whenever you need my services just let me know and I’ll be there! I want to make long term clients. In my home, pets get a calm, clean, and safe environment where they’re treated like part of the family. I follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible—whether that’s walk times, feeding schedules, playtime, or quiet time. I have two friendly Labradors who love company, but I always make sure introductions are slow and safe, or keep pets separate if needed based on your comfort level. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful, reliable, and attentive. I make sure your dog feels secure in their familiar space while keeping things tidy and stress-free. I’ll always communicate regularly with updates and photos so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. Whether I’m in your home or welcoming your dog into mine, their comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities!
“Ashley did a great job watching our Australian shepherd Loki and our cat Ronaldo Moon. We received pictures and updates throughout the weekend to offset how much we missed them. Drop off and pick up at her house was also seamless and her two greyhounds Digby and Tony were so sweet to both of our animals! They were sad to go and will definitely be back!”

“What a beautiful family! My doggie Leo had an amazing time with you guys and we thank you soo much for taking great care of him while we were away. We definitely will rebook again in the future. Thank you for everything!”

“Melanie was great and so helpful to take my pup for boarding - it was a last minute request and my travel schedule changed frequently. Melanie was flexible with her schedule to handle the changes to my travel schedule. Melanie had an extra dog bed, toys and her dog for my pup to play with. Instant love!”

“Jada was so kind and responsive. She truly loves dogs and it shined through during their entire stay. She was warm and loving when I dropped the dogs off, communicated and shared pictures, both my dogs seemed right at home and were well cared for. She will be by go to sitter from now on!”

About: I've owned animals my whole life. I recently worked at a spay and neuter clinic that has given me insight to animal care and needs. I am currently a stay at home mom.

And make sure that each animal in the home gets lots of attention while I'm there.
About: I love dogs. I have been doing drop-ins and dog walking for two years. I got on Rover just recently. The time I spend on a drop-in or walk with your dog is 100% about them. Love is always a two-way street with dogs, and I enjoy bonding with them and caring for them. I work for myself so I have flexibility I just need a day's notice to set up a home visit. I enjoy walking and am walking everyday and would enjoy walking your dog. I currently do visits to the dogs place of residence and I accommodate whatever the particular dog is accustomed to in a loving way. It is very important to me that the dog feels comfortable where they're at as well as with me. This hasn't ever been an issue.

“I interviewed a couple people for drop-in services for my cat, Keesa and decided to book Landry because Keesa didn't hide from her! They were comfortable with each other, and as a cat mom, that's important because it means Keesa wouldn't be stressed. Landry was good with her. She texted me every time she came in and sent pictures. I recommend Landry, and would request again if needed.”

About: Growing up I always wanted to be a veterinarian due to the love and compassion I had for all types of animals. Due to my environment the only animals besides those of nature that I was around were mainly cats and dogs. I took that to my advantage and spent every moment possibly with any cat or dog I could get my hands on. There were always stray litters of kittens and I made sure to always find them and bring them home. We took care of them and rehomed them. It may have drove my mother batty, but she knew I cared for every animal I met and had to do this. Fast forward to adulthood, I still scream like a child inside whenever I see a cat or dog… which yes happens to be a lot. I own two of my own German shepherds and two cats. My parents have always had small dogs so I am used to dogs of all sizes. I am currently a stay at home mom needing to find a job that will be rewarding work to me and help me support my family I have two separated fenced yards and a cozy bedroom inside. If kid friendly, they will be allowed to roam and hangout in our dog friendly home. If they are not friendly with my dogs I will make sure my dogs are kept separate as your fur babies will be my first priority always. They will be allowed to be outdoors with access to indoors whenever they would like. Fresh water and food provided always. Treats with permission. If staying overnight, they will be crated in the bedroom next to mine. If friendly and potty trained, they may roam at night.

“I was very happy with Kim’s pet sitting of my cat. She was very communicative and sent me multiple pictures of my cat during her visit. I definitely plan to have Kim petsit again. I highly recommend!!!”

“Makayla did amazing with our dog! She sent me a photo after each visit and kept me informed on how he was doing. She even went above and beyond and grabbed some packages off our porch and placed them inside for us. 10/10 recommend and will definitely be booking again! Thank you so much!”

“Emily was an amazing help with my chickens! it was a bit of an odd request, but she handled them great sent pictures and communicated thoroughly. i would definitely recommend her.”

About: I've had 2 cats and have always loved cats since I was a little kid. I got my very first one when I was 12 years old, then I got my second cat at 18 and have taken care of both since. I have also gone and taken care of my friends cats for them while they were on vacation.

About: Hi! I understand how important your pet is to you. We have two yorkies, Tyson and Wyatt, that are our children! We provide a caring, safe and active home for pups. Because we have two small dogs, we do prefer to sit for small dogs, under 15 pounds, to ensure everyone is safe. Our yorkies have gotten along with all dogs that they have been around. They love to play but quickly learn their boundaries. They are spoiled rotten with attention and your dog will be too! I work from home full time so there is usually someone always here to let them outside several times a day. If we go out we do put our pups in a pen I do keep my pups in a pen while I work and when we leave the home to ensure they are safe... and don't have accidents in the home!
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have only met a couple that was not interested in being my friend. Total dog dad with 3 seniors in the home, all are super friendly.

I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. My pups get plenty of attention each day and enjoy playing with new friends. Your pup will be right at home in our house. It’s very relaxed and calm. We can also do drop in visits to your home, go to the beach, or to one of several parks on the island. I know how it feels to have to leave my furries behind, so with that in mind , I’ll do my best to keep them distracted while their humans are away.

When caring for pets, whether in my home or a client's, ensure their basic needs are met with regular feeding, fresh water, exercise, and bathroom breaks. Maintain a safe and clean environment, follow any specific instructions from the owner, and provide plenty of attention and affection to keep them happy and comfortable.

“Heather and her husband were so patient with Miley when she developed an unexpected bout of separation anxiety. She and her family went above and beyond to help Miley settle in. I'm grateful for the updates she provided - Miley clearly had fun with other dogs and kids around. I highly recommend Heather and her family to others looking for exceptional care for your pets.”

“This was my puppy’s first time away from me and she was very shy and probably nervous. Judith was so sweet and understanding with her. She was constantly communicating with me and sending pictures and videos. This was also my first experience with Rover and it was a great one.”

“Jess and her family took in my Shepherd as if she were a member of their own household. Issa is a temperamental dog who does not trust easily; however, she felt secure immediately and received ample attention and affection. Throughout my week away, I was regularly updated with messages and photographs. I paid for the pickup and drop-off services provided, which I found to be affordable and highly convenient, allowing me to leave town on schedule without unnecessary stress upon my return. I highly recommend her services.”


“Alexis is very kind and an excellent communicator. Her home is spacious and has just the right energy for your furbaby. She is organized and made sure that I was able to drop off and pick up at my desired time. She sent me updates which made me feel very comfortable that my pup was having a great time and adjusted well! She was able to maintain his high energy and he obviously loved that! I know he had a great time in her care and we will be back!”

“It was my first time using Rover.com app for Boarding Services for my 8 month old Labadoole, Rusty, while I travelled internationally. I was a bit apprehensive, since Rusty can be a handfull with energy to burn. Gabby ressured me Rusty will be fine, she's had plenty of experience with Labadooles. I must say, I was impressed when Gabby texted me advising Rusty was vomitting and having diarrhea. We came up with a plan to eliminate the food toppers & treats & only provide Rusty the dry food, and it worked. Rusty was fine after a few hours. Gabby kept in communication with me, sending videos & pictures of Rusty, which made me feel much better Boarding Rusty with Gabby. I would recommend Gabby for your Pet Boarding Service, and I would definiately use her service again.”

“Excellent care of my 2 pups. When I brought their beds in from the car they sniffed the sitters house for a while. The sent photos are like Glamor Shots and sent multiple a day. They were definitely spoiled during their stay. They have a large Mastiff, but he's a sweetheart. Would definitely recommend.”


“Brett and Sandra cared my pup as if she was their own. My dog is a rescue and can be skittish and easily overwhelmed. Neither of that occurred, she seemed to have a great time. I’m lucky she willingly came home with me!! I could not recommend them more highly.”

About: I provide attentive, high-quality in-home boarding with a focus on comfort, safety, and personalized care. My goal is to create a reliable, low-stress experience where your dog feels secure, cared for, and completely at home. Because I work from home, your dog will receive consistent supervision, companionship, and a calm, structured environment throughout their stay. A typical day includes a morning walk before work, lunchtime fetch and unlimited potty breaks. My husband and I share our home with two well-socialized, friendly dogs who are fully up to date on vaccinations and genuinely enjoy the company of other dogs in their fully fenced in backyard and a very friendly cat (that believes he is one of the dogs). I’m experienced in caring for pets for friends and family, and I approach every stay with the same level of care and responsibility I would expect for my own pets. Each dog’s routine is thoughtfully maintained, including daily walks, enrichment, and plenty of one-on-one attention. For dogs who enjoy the water, I also offer supervised swim time with owner approval.
“Kristine watched our border collie during 4th of July. Our pup is scared of fireworks but Kristine put in extra care and work to make sure she was more than comfortable during that time. She took her to play at the beach, sent great pictures and was very communicative. It’s clear Kristine is extremely knowledgeable with all types of dogs. Definitely will be having Kristine watch our dog again, my husband and I both recommend you book with her!”

“Anna was amazing with my Shadow. You couldn’t ask for a better sitter than she is. I would highly recommend her to anyone for your animal sitting needs. She treats them as if they were her fur baby. I’m will be definitely using her again in the future.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all sizes and personalities. I grew up with dogs and currently have two friendly Labradors who keep me active and always entertained! Whether it’s going for walks, playing fetch, or just providing a cozy and safe environment while you’re away, I treat every dog like part of the family. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust—and I’ll always make sure your pet is loved, well cared for, and happy. If your dog enjoys companionship, belly rubs, or just needs a calm, consistent routine, I’ve got you covered! As of now I have an open availability, meaning whenever you need my services just let me know and I’ll be there! I want to make long term clients. In my home, pets get a calm, clean, and safe environment where they’re treated like part of the family. I follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible—whether that’s walk times, feeding schedules, playtime, or quiet time. I have two friendly Labradors who love company, but I always make sure introductions are slow and safe, or keep pets separate if needed based on your comfort level. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful, reliable, and attentive. I make sure your dog feels secure in their familiar space while keeping things tidy and stress-free. I’ll always communicate regularly with updates and photos so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. Whether I’m in your home or welcoming your dog into mine, their comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities!
“Ashley did a great job watching our Australian shepherd Loki and our cat Ronaldo Moon. We received pictures and updates throughout the weekend to offset how much we missed them. Drop off and pick up at her house was also seamless and her two greyhounds Digby and Tony were so sweet to both of our animals! They were sad to go and will definitely be back!”

“What a beautiful family! My doggie Leo had an amazing time with you guys and we thank you soo much for taking great care of him while we were away. We definitely will rebook again in the future. Thank you for everything!”

“Melanie was great and so helpful to take my pup for boarding - it was a last minute request and my travel schedule changed frequently. Melanie was flexible with her schedule to handle the changes to my travel schedule. Melanie had an extra dog bed, toys and her dog for my pup to play with. Instant love!”

“Jada was so kind and responsive. She truly loves dogs and it shined through during their entire stay. She was warm and loving when I dropped the dogs off, communicated and shared pictures, both my dogs seemed right at home and were well cared for. She will be by go to sitter from now on!”

“Such a professional and attentive sitter. She went above and beyond to accommodate and care for our dog Bo. 10/10 would recommend. You can really see the care she has for the pets she watches. Thank you!!!!”

“Hands down the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. She’s incredibly reliable, consistently communicative, and completely honest—qualities that give my boyfriend and me total peace of mind every time we leave our dog with her. From the very first booking, she was upfront about everything, including how our dog tends to avoid eating the first day or two in a new place (something others had glossed over or misrepresented in the past). She sends daily photo updates, and it’s clear from every one that he’s happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When he comes home, he’s always clean, content, and a little sad to leave—which tells us he genuinely enjoys his time there. We never have to worry when he’s in her care. She’s warm, trustworthy, and welcoming, with a lovely family and children who treat our dog with such kindness. My boyfriend and I absolutely love her and 100% prefer her over anyone else. We’re beyond grateful to have found someone we trust so fully with our dog.”

“Staci provided a wonderful and safe environment for Luna!! I was appreciative of her care and kindness. Staci sent pictures and kept me informed throughout the visit. I would definitely consider Staci’s services first should we ever need another dog sitter!!”

“Giovanni did excellent with my reactive GSD. He was patient, understanding, and did excellent with her. She had so much fun, he sent plenty of pictures and updates, and she came back super tired! Definitely would recommend and trust him with your furry babies. We will be using him again!”
