“Ken and Sam were incredible with our pup Lola while we were gone for a week. They were very attentive to her hypoglycemic needs and even hand fed her when she wouldn’t eat. They sent several photos and videos every day and let me know how she was doing. They were also flexible with our pick up time after flying back. Lola had a blast. I wouldn’t hesitate to have Ken and Sam watch her again! 5 hundred stars!!”
“This was my first time using Rover, so I did not really know what to expect. Glynis surpassed all of my hopes! She took such good care of Buster - sent me photos everyday, sent me updates on how he was doing, and she made sure that he enjoyed himself. I would give her 6 stars! She made sure to know and follow his routine. He is relatively new to my home, as he was a rescue and had only been with me a couple of months. From his behavior when we got home, I know he was made to feel secure and cared for while he stayed with Glynis and her family. While he was happy to see me when I returned, I doubt that he missed me, as he had such positive experiences, as did I. I highly recommend her!”

I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I understand that every dog has their own needs. I treat pets like family and make it a priority to follow their normal feeding, potty, exercise, and sleep routines so they feel as comfortable as possible while away from home.

Inside, I provide a calm and comfortable environment and follow each pet’s normal feeding, potty, exercise, and sleeping routine as closely as possible. I’m also happy to use a crate if your dog is crate trained and that is part of their usual routine.
“I’m so glad that we found Eden! We had been reluctant to leave our dog with anyone since he hadn’t been around many other people due to the pandemic, but Eden made us feel so at ease. She sent updates, pics, and even a video while we were away. Our dog looked so happy and loved being at her home. We’ll definitely send Cairo to stay with Eden whenever boarding is needed.”
“Tobie is the absolute best when it comes to taking care of your baby. She watched our fig Roscoe for the first time for 5 days and the amount of pictures and videos she sent my kids loved it. My dog became her watch dog wherever she went he went. She will always have us as a client. THANK U AGAIN”

About: I have raised and cared for dogs for over twenty years, specializing in hypoallergenic dogs, and currently have two shih tzus. I work from home full time with flexibility to accommodate your pets needs. I can administer meds, including injections if needed. My neighborhood is great for walks. My fenced yard is great for potty and play, and my fenced carport and deck allow for more controlled outside play. I understand your routines are important for you and your pet and will maintain any established patterns, commands and food/sleep schedule for your pet. Dogs of all ages easily feel at home in my home. I look forward to providing excellent care for your pup(s) while you are away. I work from home full-time and have plenty of flexibility throughout the day. Your pup will get lots of attention, playtime, and care. I love taking neighborhood walks, spending time outside playing, and all the pup cuddles. Since I’m home throughout the day, I’m able to easily adjust to your pup’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and loved while they’re with me. Safety and comfort are of utmost importance. The interior of my home is very clean and free of any items that would tempt a curious pup to be destructive. My fenced back yard gets sun and shade, and the gated carport and deck are great for enjoying the outside even if it is raining. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and have access to the house, but your rules are my rules and I will adjust accordingly.
“Serria was wonderful and took exceptional care of our baby girl. We were concerned about how Zhuri would do with other animals, especially cats, but she got along well with Serria’s two dogs and cat. Serria sent daily photos of Zhuri bonding and relaxing with her eldest dog. One picture showed Zhuri outside in her spacious, fenced yard, where they had plenty of room to run and play. It was clear Zhuri felt comfortable in her home. Serria cared for our sweet girl as if she were her own. She was kind, responsive, and made the entire experience stress-free. Zhuri was in excellent hands with someone who clearly loves animals, and we truly appreciated the care and attention she received. Highly recommend!”
“Jeronay took such great care of my corgi/chihuahua mix fur baby! She sent daily photo or short video updates and I felt very comfortable with leaving her for a week with her. She also has a really large fenced yard that I know Luna enjoyed roaming around and sun bathing in. Highly recommend her!”
“Veronica and her husband are great! Had a meet and greet before, and was updated with pictures regularly. There is NO other rover in the area I trust more than them. My cat had his own room, with plenty of attention and interaction from them.”
“Kelli was incredible. I felt she really loved on Jonquil. I had some travel difficulties at the start and she was gracious and flexible. She kept me up to date and sent pics. Jonquil loves Lucas, and misses him already. I think jonquil felt safe and loved on.”
“Christina is AWESOME. My best friend loved his experience. I travel alot for business and I have no concerns with using Christina's service again as she will be my "go to".”
“My dog was so happy over there. It was good to know he wasn't just sitting in a large pen all weekend. Kourtney was responsive and sent us photos. I was very happy I used the app to find her. Working with her was much easier than larger boarding facilities. I'll definitely return.”

“Our dog Bronco had a great time at daycare while we explored some places in the area that weren’t dog friendly. I enjoyed getting lots of videos and pictures of him while we were out and about. The outdoor area was wonderful for him to run around and stretch his legs! Thank you!!”
“This was my baby Gino’s 1st time with other pet babies and away from home. Veronica was great she sends updated pictures with any questions I have. I love that Veronica is a big loving pup mom. She cared for Gino just like I do which is a BIG plus.”

Adrienne is a REAL, caring, first-class animal lover. From the moment you pull up to her home until the moment you leave, it feels like puppy and doggie heaven! I have been looking for someone I could trust, believe in, and feel 100% comfortable leaving my longtime best friend and furry patrol dog with, and Adrienne is that person. Thank you so very much! My heart is singing because Max loves you, and that means everything to me. We are already looking forward to his staycation with you next week! Adrienne, you are truly a diamond in the rough!”
About: I am recently retired and have an older dog who has retired from long walks. Our family would enjoy some new pet friends and would like to lend a hand to a neighbor. My schedule is wide open so I can adapt to the needs of your four-legged best friend. Our Homeowner’s Association offers safe sidewalk accommodations for regular walking. We have plenty of open space within our home and allow our pet to roam freely. I am able to accommodate any crating or feeding schedule provided and love to share photos with status updates. My son recently graduated from high school and is also very hands on with pet care and clean up needs. We would love to offer love to your pet for any vacations or extended times away. We offer our dog lots of affection. He treats his backyard like a dog park and enjoys playing catch. He gets along very well with well with other dogs.
“Sierra was wonderful. Turbo looked like he had a great time and the fact that he didn’t seem like he wanted to come home right away was a great sign of amazing care. Turbo will be back to hang out soon. Thank you for caring for my baby ❤️”
About: Hi there! 👋 I’m a stay-at-home mom to 11-year-old twin girls, and we’re a proud military family — my son is currently serving in the U.S. Navy 🇺🇸. Our home is filled with love, laughter, and a deep affection for animals. We have three sweet pets of our own: Dexter, Bella, and our newest little fur baby, Keke 🐶🐱. As a family, we absolutely adore dogs and cats, and we’d be honored to care for yours like one of our own. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or just good company while you’re away, your pet will feel right at home with us! We can’t wait to meet your furry family member! 🐾 I am s stay at home mom and have plenty of free time during he day! I put my kids on the bus at 730am and they get home around 445pm. I’m free during those hours and after hours if needed! I have a fenced in yard and could crate your dog if your baby is use to being crated! If not they have free range of my downstairs and out back.
About: I've been caring for pets for over 10 years — dogs and cats belonging to friends and family who trust me completely, and that trust means everything to me. What makes my care different is that it's never one-size-fits-all. If your dog lives for walks, we walk. If they're all about the ball, we play. If they just want to curl up next to someone, I'm right there. Every pet gets care shaped around who they are, not a standard routine. My home is child-free and pet-free, so your baby isn't competing for attention — they are the focus of my entire day. And when you pick them up? They'll be freshly bathed, happy, and ready to go home. Baths are always on me. PLEASE NOTE: I can board up to 4 pets from the same family at one time, as the pets all know each other. I do not take multiple pets from different families to board at the same time. It's often stressful for the animals and I don't get to enjoy your pet if he is stressed out by strange animals. My home is child-free and animal-free, which means your pet gets a calm, quiet environment with zero stress from other animals and no chaotic energy. They are the sole focus of my day. IMPORTANT: I only take pets from one family at a time. I want to enjoy your dog. For dogs: I follow your routine to the letter — feeding times, walk schedule, medications, treats, favorite spots. I ease new guests in gently because I know the first few hours matter most. If your dog loves walks, we walk. If they're a ball dog, we play. They get care shaped around who they are, not a generic routine. Every dog goes home with a complimentary bath so they're clean, happy, and ready to see you. For cats: I understand cats aren't small dogs — they need something completely different. I give them a safe, quiet space to settle in at their own pace, no forcing interaction. I read their cues — whether they want lap time, window watching, or just a calm human nearby. Litter box hygiene is spotless and non-negotiable. I'm very careful about doors, windows, and escape points so your indoor cat stays safely indoors. For all pets: I monitor eating and behavior closely and flag anything off straight away. You'll get regular photo and video updates — as many or as few as you'd like. I've been caring for pets for over 10 years for people who trust me like family, and I take that trust seriously. My goal is simple: your baby comes home calm, happy, and exactly themselves. I do have a fenced yard but do not allow dogs to go out alone unsupervised. I enjoy walking dogs and will keep the routine that you have with your dog. I only take cats and dogs at the same time from the same family. I will always confirm any animal is up to date with vaccines and flea treatments first.
About: I’m an experienced dog professional with years of hands on experience caring for, raising, and working with dogs. I own and operate a preservation breeding program specializing in Giant Schnauzers, so daily dog care is already a major part of my life. I have extensive experience with puppies, large breeds, feeding routines, crate training, basic obedience, socialization, administering routine care, and recognizing changes in a dog’s behavior or needs. I’m home full time, which allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, supervision, exercise, enrichment, and individual attention throughout the day. I understand that every dog has a different personality and routine, and I work to keep their stay as comfortable and consistent with home as possible. I intentionally keep my boarding capacity limited so that dogs in my care receive personal attention rather than being one of many animals in a large facility. Safety, cleanliness, structure, and communication with owners are priorities for me. I’m comfortable caring for both small and large dogs and understand the additional handling and management needs of powerful breeds. Whether your dog is staying for a weekend or an extended vacation, my goal is to provide a safe, structured, comfortable environment where you can feel confident leaving them. Pet care is already part of my daily routine, so your dog will receive plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m home full-time and available seven days a week for boarding. My days include regular potty breaks, feeding, supervised playtime, exercise, enrichment, rest periods, and individual attention. I intentionally keep my boarding capacity limited so each guest receives consistent, personalized care. Safety, cleanliness, and structure are extremely important in my home. I have a secure fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and plenty of space for dogs to relax comfortably. Guest dogs are supervised and can be separated or crated when appropriate for their safety and comfort. I follow each owner’s feeding schedule, medications, routines, and care instructions closely. Introductions are handled carefully, and dogs are never forced to interact. My goal is to provide a clean, structured, loving environment where every dog feels safe and their owner has peace of mind.
About: My Personal Approach & Passion for Pets My genuine love for animals is what drives my pet care style. I am patient, trustworthy, and naturally observant, making it easy for me to connect with pets of all temperaments. For me, pet sitting isn’t just a task; it is about providing a warm, low-stress environment where your animals feel entirely safe, happy, and treated like family while you are away. What Sets Me Apart:I offer a highly adaptive environment for all pets and life stages, including dogs, cats, and puppies. I easily handle the high energy and training support needed for playful youngsters, as well as the gentle comfort, slow pace, and strict medication schedules required for senior companion animals. I customize my daily routine to mirror yours, ensuring your pet enjoys a seamless transition with plenty of interactive play, cozy naps, and affection. Pet care is the main focus of my daily routine because I work from home full-time. This flexibility allows me to provide constant supervision, frequent potty breaks every 2 to 3 hours, and interactive playtime throughout the day. My weekly schedule is highly consistent, meaning your dogs, cats, or puppies will enjoy a reliable routine with plenty of companionship and zero long periods spent alone. I create a safe, pet-proofed environment where your dogs, cats, or puppies are treated like family. They have full access to comfortable resting spots, fresh water, and supervised play. I follow your exact feeding schedules, crate routines, and potty windows to keep their days consistent and stress-free. In Your Home (Drop-Ins/Sitting): I respect your space while prioritizing your pet's comfort. During visits, I handle feeding, refreshing water bowls, cleaning litter boxes, and administering any required medications. I make sure to include plenty of quality playtime or belly rubs, and I always send you photo updates so you know they are safe and happy.

About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life, and caring for them has always been a true passion of mine. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and deserves patience, love, and individualized care. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, long walks, or simply relaxing with someone they trust, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and am committed to providing dependable, compassionate care. I have plenty of time throughout the day to go check up on your dog or cat. We can go on walks and have alot of play time. I see them multiple times a day and at night. I am in a friendly neighborhood. I have neighbors walking there dogs all the time.

“Lori has been walking my dog for about a week while I am in a walking boot and she is so great! She is always on time and is very communicative.

About: My Personal Approach & Passion for Pets My genuine love for animals is what drives my pet care style. I am patient, trustworthy, and naturally observant, making it easy for me to connect with pets of all temperaments. For me, pet sitting isn’t just a task; it is about providing a warm, low-stress environment where your animals feel entirely safe, happy, and treated like family while you are away. What Sets Me Apart:I offer a highly adaptive environment for all pets and life stages, including dogs, cats, and puppies. I easily handle the high energy and training support needed for playful youngsters, as well as the gentle comfort, slow pace, and strict medication schedules required for senior companion animals. I customize my daily routine to mirror yours, ensuring your pet enjoys a seamless transition with plenty of interactive play, cozy naps, and affection. Pet care is the main focus of my daily routine because I work from home full-time. This flexibility allows me to provide constant supervision, frequent potty breaks every 2 to 3 hours, and interactive playtime throughout the day. My weekly schedule is highly consistent, meaning your dogs, cats, or puppies will enjoy a reliable routine with plenty of companionship and zero long periods spent alone. I create a safe, pet-proofed environment where your dogs, cats, or puppies are treated like family. They have full access to comfortable resting spots, fresh water, and supervised play. I follow your exact feeding schedules, crate routines, and potty windows to keep their days consistent and stress-free. In Your Home (Drop-Ins/Sitting): I respect your space while prioritizing your pet's comfort. During visits, I handle feeding, refreshing water bowls, cleaning litter boxes, and administering any required medications. I make sure to include plenty of quality playtime or belly rubs, and I always send you photo updates so you know they are safe and happy.
About: I’ve always had a love for animals since a young age growing up my parents never allowed me to own a pet, so I found a passion for caring for others pets ! I have worked for family and friends with watching and grooming their pets and I’ve also watched babies and toddlers since middle school which I now would be in my 2nd year of college. I currently am not employed, but I do side hustles such as selling on depop so sometimes I’ll ship packages off, I create clothes and accessories, and I babysit. Outside of that I have a lot of free time. I will care for your fur babies by listening to them while also following your requests/schedule throughly. I have no problem with more energetic animals taking them on a walk or just any personality finding a way to accommodate.
“Stephanie has been wonderful and patient with our dogs, one of whom is vision-impaired and scared of strangers. We're so excited to have found such a professional - she's a gem!”

About: Hi! I’m Antonio, and I’ve had dogs for all 29 years of my life. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s something I’ve always loved. My best friend is Boss, my 6-year-old Pit Bull. Raising him has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding that every dog has their own personality and needs. I’m returning to Rover after taking a few years away, and this time my goal is different. I’m building a professional pet care business that I plan to grow into my full-time career. That means every booking matters, and every dog in my care is treated like family. My home offers plenty of space for dogs to feel comfortable, and I have a large yard where they can safely enjoy supervised playtime, exercise, and fresh air. Whether your pup is here for daycare, overnight boarding, a walk, or a drop-in visit, they’ll receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. I know how difficult it can be to leave your dog with someone else, so communication is a priority. I’ll send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and having a great time. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy being around dogs. My mornings begin after I drop my son off at preschool, giving me plenty of time throughout the day for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and one-on-one attention. In the afternoons, I’m away for about two hours while coaching football nearby, but I’m less than 10 minutes from home and plan my schedule to ensure every dog is comfortable and well cared for before and after practice. My evenings are dedicated to spending time with the dogs in my care, making sure they get plenty of exercise, affection, and a consistent routine. I take pet care seriously and make it a priority every day. I provide every dog with the same level of care and attention that I give my own dog, Boss. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. In my home, dogs have plenty of space to relax indoors and enjoy supervised time in my large yard. I make sure they always have fresh water, a clean environment, lots of attention, and a safe, comfortable place to rest. I never leave dogs unattended outside, and I monitor interactions carefully to ensure everyone stays safe and happy. For drop-in visits and walks, I respect my clients’ homes while making sure their pets receive the care, exercise, affection, and companionship they need. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so owners can feel confident that their pets are being well cared for.

“This was my first time using Rover, so I did not really know what to expect. Glynis surpassed all of my hopes! She took such good care of Buster - sent me photos everyday, sent me updates on how he was doing, and she made sure that he enjoyed himself. I would give her 6 stars! She made sure to know and follow his routine. He is relatively new to my home, as he was a rescue and had only been with me a couple of months. From his behavior when we got home, I know he was made to feel secure and cared for while he stayed with Glynis and her family. While he was happy to see me when I returned, I doubt that he missed me, as he had such positive experiences, as did I. I highly recommend her!”

“Solomon had a great time! Unique was communicative, patient, and made dropoff and pickup easy. She has a Lab herself so was well aware of how to care for him. It's nerve wracking to leave your puppy when you have to travel, but I'm so glad we found Unique. She put me at ease so that I was able to focus on my trip. Thank you, Unique!”
“Serria was wonderful and took exceptional care of our baby girl. We were concerned about how Zhuri would do with other animals, especially cats, but she got along well with Serria’s two dogs and cat. Serria sent daily photos of Zhuri bonding and relaxing with her eldest dog. One picture showed Zhuri outside in her spacious, fenced yard, where they had plenty of room to run and play. It was clear Zhuri felt comfortable in her home. Serria cared for our sweet girl as if she were her own. She was kind, responsive, and made the entire experience stress-free. Zhuri was in excellent hands with someone who clearly loves animals, and we truly appreciated the care and attention she received. Highly recommend!”
“Veronica and her husband are great! Had a meet and greet before, and was updated with pictures regularly. There is NO other rover in the area I trust more than them. My cat had his own room, with plenty of attention and interaction from them.”
“Christina is AWESOME. My best friend loved his experience. I travel alot for business and I have no concerns with using Christina's service again as she will be my "go to".”

“Sarah was amazingly flexible and kind. She is the first sitter I used with Rover and provided a great experience. Sarah sent pictures and answered all my questions. When I went to pick up my baby she 😩 barked at me and went back to Sarah before coming to me. THATS AMAZING!!! This speaks volumes of how much fun she had with Sarah. Definitely book with her!”
“Daniela is so wonderful with Zena. She and her husband love having her and Zena loves going to their house. Zena and Rocky love to play, cuddle and take walks so even more fun that she made a new pooch pal! I highly recommend Daniela for boarding.”
“Taurus and his family were amazing! They were patient with my fur babies and kept me well informed with them daily! I could not have asked for a better sitter and home for my babies to go to while I’m away! Storm and Ivy seemed to really enjoy themselves once they got comfortable ( they can be a little standoff ish to new people). Thank you again Taurus and family!”
