“Needed a sitter on short notice while our apartment was being fumigated, I was so grateful for Jennifer taking them in while I was at work. She's very kind, gentle, and caring, providing perfect care for both our sweet kitties. One of our cats had a bit of irritation in her eye from some dirt, and she was able to give her the eye drops we left with her. Absolutely will book her again if/when I need a sitter, you can tell how much she loves what she does.”
“I feel so good about leaving Gobby with Lindsay and Chris. He was previously traumatized by staying in a kennel but he came home happy and calm after a week with them. I received pictures and updates on him while we were away and I know he was much better staying in a home environment with a friendly family. Thank you so much!”
“Lidiia took amazing care of my Sheba for two weeks. She was incredibly accommodating and even extended the boarding time twice, which I deeply appreciated. She made sure Sheba was comfortable by boarding her in her own room, giving her the privacy she loves. I couldn’t have asked for better care.”
“Kerri was amazing with my girl Bailey. She's an older dog and tends to be uncomfortable in new settings. I could see the level of comfort in her eyes from the photo's and updates Kerri sent. I feel so lucky to have found her.”
“I found Tracey extremely last minute for my dad’s dog and she was beyond kind and communicative. She sent me photos of my dad’s dog, as well as let me know how he was doing as he has bad separation anxiety! I will definitely be booking with her again! Thank you so much Tracey!”
“Shilpi was amazing!! I have never felt as comfortable leaving my fur baby when going away. Shilpi made the process so easy and gave us steps to make sure we remembered everything. While we were gone she sent many updates and pictures and I could tell my dog was safe and happy. They did a phenomenal job making sure she was eating well and enjoying her stay. When we picked her up too, she seemed so well kept and her fur was so soft and clean which hasn't always been the case when we have left her at other places. I will absolutely be leaving my dog with them again and I know I will feel 100% safe and happy doing so! Thank you to them for taking care of my fur baby ♥️”
“Tammy does a great job with a new "visitor" he was not nervous because she made our little guy feel very comfortable. We have used Tammy's services several times and will keep doing so.”
“We took our dog on a mini vacation with us. Last minute option since we didn't want to take him everywhere with us and plus we couldn't in some places. Too many people get him really excited..So we were searching and found Rover app. Started looking around on it and found someone close by. She worked with me with it being such short notice. Yappie met her and we did too and knew he was gonna be just fine. She has dogs too so that was @ plus. She sent many pics and kept up letting us know how he was ... Her dog Barney Yappie loved... All around was a great experience and will definitely recommend her to everyone and will use her again when we're up there... Thank you she is definitely a number 1 pick for us... We could feel Yappie was very relaxed and happy when we left.. when we went to get him he was happy and very excited ... 5 stars with us hands down!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“I couldn't be happier with René! From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear that our dog wasn't just being boarded; he was truly welcomed into her family. She treated him like one of her own. It was such a relief to know he was happy, comfortable, and receiving so much love and attention while we were away. We got regular updates and photos, which we really appreciated. We'll definitely be using her again!”
“Julie and Michael were so easy to work with when our leaving and arriving times changed. The dog had a wonderful time at their wonderful place. They took great care of Rosie and she enjoyed her stay with them. Would use them again.”
“Yami is wonderful and our dog Bailey loves her. My puppy was sad when she came back cause she missed them soo much! I will definitely use them again and will also recommend to my friends.”
“Thank you Ryan for taking good care of Loki. He came home happy and healthy. Also thanks for keeping us updated with his pics that helped us to be in peace and enjoy our vacation.”
“We were lucky to have such a kind and sweet sitter! She even took care to celebrate our pup's first birthday with gifts and birthday pictures! Snuggles and love were clearly a part of my doggy's stay with Alesia.”
“Tiffany was wonderful with our Baby Boy; Fitz! We had never left him with anyone before; and Tiffany made us feel comfortable and at ease when we met, at her home! We received pictures and videos of Fitz; He was happy all the time!!! We will definitely contact Tiffany again! We highly recommend her!!”
“Goldendoodle Queisha took wonderful care of our 6-year-old Goldendoodle. We really appreciated the updates and the stress-free boarding experience for the day. We look forward to using her services again in the future.”
“Shital & Ketan took care of Hira very well. Hira seemed safe and happy to be with them. We got frequent updates, with photos and videos of Hira enjoying her time there. We also noticed the same when we went picked her back. Thank you so much for the kindness and care you showed to Hira!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets since high school and bring decades of hands‑on experience with cats and dogs of all sizes. I’ve cared for puppies/kittens, seniors, given diabetes shots, changed diapers, and handled everything from Sheepdogs to Chihuahuas. I have two small, friendly dogs, a senior cat, and a fully fenced backyard. If your pet is dog‑and cat‑friendly, I’m happy to host them short‑ or long‑term. I truly love animals of all kinds. I am happy to come over and check on your baby, take them for a walk (or stroll), throw a ball or play light flashing, or even daycare for them at my home. I work from home all but two days a week and can modify that as needed. My job is flexible so I am able to take breaks and work my around your schedule. I have a fenced in yard and am able to care for your baby as needed. My job is flexible so I am able to take breaks and work my around your schedule.
About: As someone who personally has an animal with special needs I understand the kind of care they need! I also have experience working with animals of all ages. Along with working with animals of all ages I have both volunteered and worked at a local Humane Society. Working there entailed feeding, cleaning, and providing medical care to both cats and dogs. As a student who only works a part time job I am back and forth between campus and my house all week. With an older cat I frequently drop by my house throughout the day to check on him. Because of this I would be able to provide the same care to your animals as well. I live in a quiet neighborhood near several large parks. Because of this I will be able to not only walk dogs in my neighborhood but take them to surrounding parks to walk and play! Along with taking dogs out my home is equipped with cat friendly furniture,scratchers and enrichment.
About: I have loved dogs my entire life. Growing up being an animal lover, some of my best memories are with my dogs throughout my childhood. Since then, I have always had dogs, and can’t imagine my life without them. I’ve helped friends and family throughout my life care for their dogs - sitting, bathing, walking, etc. We have two dogs of our own, Ollie (a two year old goldendoodle) and Layla (a 12 year old papillon.) We have had both of our dogs since they were puppies, so we are familiar with puppy training as well as the special care that senior dogs need. We consider them members of our family, and I have always hated boarding them at traditional kennels. Leaving them with a trusted sitter has given us such peace of mind when we go out of town, and I hope to provide that same peace of mind for you. I am currently a stay-at-home mom, so I will be able to have your dogs out with me during the day, and have them sleep comfortably in their crates at night or when they’re unsupervised. I will also be able to provide plenty of potty breaks and walks. We have an acre of open yard and a semi-wooded space to have plenty of supervised playtime. We have plenty of room inside and out to run and play! When your dogs are unsupervised, they will be safely in their crate in our large, open, finished basement. I provide boarding for indoor crate trained dogs, who are up to date on all vaccines including Bordetella, are house/potty trained, and on flea/tick prevention. They also must be friendly with other dogs and children.

About: I had three miniature dachshunds until they all eventually passed away from old age. I treated them as if they were children. I am very in tune with an animal’s needs and emotions. Animals that I have never met before, usually take to me right away. When I cared for my father-in-law’s dog for two weeks, he did not want to return home with him….lol. I hate to see any animal suffer or be in danger. I go as far to remove turtles from the road so that they do not get hit and I have tried to save numerous injured birds in the wild. Animals, especially, dogs, provide so much unconditional love. I am a retired law enforcement officer. Thus, I have a lot of availability. I am available Sunday-Saturday 24 hours as long as I am provided at least a short notice. I have a fenced in back yard that I always ensure is securely locked at all times. I would pet proof home ensure no medications or cleaning products, etc are accessible to pets. Also, I would only feed what the owner wanted the pet to be fed.
About: I have been taking care of pets for 10+ years and have loved every minute of it. Myself and my husband are pet lovers.

We will give your pets all the love and attention they need while you are away. I am a stay at home mom so your pets will be supervised throughout their stay. We are open to having your pet in our home any day of the week. We have a fenced in yard and locks on both entrances on the gates. We also love to go for walks through our very safe neighborhood. Pets will have full access indoors. We have 4 children who are very gentle and respectful of pets.
“Max enjoyed his time with Lena. She was very attentive to him and provided him with great care during his visit. This was his first time away from his family, so her kindness was very important. Max made a new friend with Lena's Yorkie, Freddie. Lena sent us a very nice photo of the two new friends. We will definitely contact Lena for future visits to that area. Thank you very much, Lena!”

About: I’ve been dog sitting for my parents and neighbors for the last 13 years now! I’ve expanded to friends and other family as I got older! I’m currently working Monday-Friday at an office, but working on switching to remote work so my schedule will be more flexible due to being able to work from anywhere. I have 2 dogs of my own, both I have had since they were old enough to leave their moms, one is 2 years old and one is 5 months now. My 2 year old is always ready to play and normally does really well around other dogs, but does play rough so maybe being around older dogs is not a good idea lol! The 5 month old is still getting trained and learning. I have also always grown up with dogs in the house ever since I was a baby. I can offer references of people that are not family that I have pet sat / house sat for as well.

I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions you provide. In your home, I make sure to respect your space, keep things clean, and give your pet plenty of attention and companionship. I always monitor for any changes in behavior or needs, and I keep you updated with messages and pictures so you know how your pet is doing.

About: I love caring for pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away! I've been dog sitting for family and friends for the past three years and have experience with all kinds of pups. From energetic puppies who need lots of attention and playtime to senior dogs who require medication and a little extra care. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I always do my best to help them feel relaxed and right at home. I love being active and spending time outdoors, so if your dog enjoys walks, playtime, or just hanging out outside, I'll make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention. If they're more laid-back and prefer relaxing inside, I'm happy to spend quality time indoors too!

About: Previously, I worked as a kennel tech at a Vet Clinic for about 3 years! I have had experience in caring for cats and dogs (love them both). Along with working with animals at the vet clinic, I have been on Rover for over a year and also offer pet sitting outside of the app. My goal is always to offer the best care for your animals, ensuring you feel at ease when being away from them! I am currently a college student but I have a fairly flexible schedule that allows me to make time in the morning, most afternoons, and evenings. To ensure the safety of myself and the animals, I would be sure to get all of the details on what the pet needs. Such as, medical history, and knowledge of any existing problems or quirks the pet may have. For example, my own dog doesn’t like to eat right away, she likes to graze; this would be something I would want to know just in case. Care and safety are all in the details!

Yappie met her and we did too and knew he was gonna be just fine. She has dogs too so that was @ plus. She sent many pics and kept up letting us know how he was ... Her dog Barney Yappie loved... All around was a great experience and will definitely recommend her to everyone and will use her again when we're up there... Thank you she is definitely a number 1 pick for us... We could feel Yappie was very relaxed and happy when we left.. when we went to get him he was happy and very excited ... 5 stars with us hands down!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”
