“Kristin was absolutely wonderful with our dog! She was reliable, communicative, and genuinely cared. She kept us updated while we were away and made the whole experience stress-free. Our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. We would definitely book with Kristin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”
“My dogs came home happy and well-cared for after their stay with Lindsey. She responded quickly whenever I reached out and kept me updated on how they were settling in. The photos she sent were so appreciated, especially since I hate being away from my pups. She truly made me feel comfortable and confident that they were in good hands. This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. I will definitely book with Lindsey again!”
“Kyrie was amazing! Cooper had a blast while we were away. Kyrie was very attentive to Cooper and frequently took him on walks. He kept us updated with lots of photos and videos making our trip away stress free and knowing Cooper was in good hands. Highly recommend and will be using Kyrie again in the future.”
“This was my second time using rover and my German Shepherd had a great time. I appreciate all the updates and the level of care Ms. Shaniece provided. Sometimes I get nervous with leaving Zeke because he’s so big, energetic and at times requires a lot of attention, however, could tell once I picked him up he was in good hands.”
“Valerie did an excellent job of caring for my old girl while I was away. It gave me peace of mind knowing that my Princess was being cared for and given the attention she needed. I will book Valerie again and recommend her to anyone who is looking for a responsible, caring person to board their dog.”
“Cindy was awesome. She was able to accommodate us at the last minute while we were in town. We will definitely use her anytime we need to board our fur baby when we’re in town.”
“Julia was great! She was responsive and kept me posted throughout my pets stay with her. She was always available and quick to answer my questions. She sent me pictures of my puppy everyday and kept me up to date with everything. She made sure my puppy was well taken care of. She was even kind enough to meet with me a few days before my pet stayed with. My dog has separation anxiety but she did great with Julia. Thank you so much Julia for making this experience as smooth as possible.”
“Kanan has a new auntie and uncle for sure! LaDonna and her husband Andy are the best. They are the perfect kind of people who you can trust to look after your babies. They made sure Kanan was attended to and made to feel like he was a member of the family. I enjoyed receiving reassurances through pictures and texts that Kanan was adapting and doing well. No more looking for me when I need sitters in the future. I hit the jackpot on the first time using Rover. I feel so blessed for me and Kanan!”
“Brittany was great! She communicated well throughout King and Dova’s stay. She provided me with pictures and videos of how they were doing. She spoiled them a little. I definitely think they enjoyed themselves! 🤭”
“Alexander was a lifesaver when I had to go out of town short notice. He was quick to respond, and didn’t hesitate to watch her. He greeted her with a treat and followed my rules that I have instilled at my house with Honey. I would most definitely use him again in the future. Thank you, again!”
“Dylan and his wife were very accommodating. After returning from my trip, I was held up at the airport which pushed my pickup time back a couple of hours. They were so sweet to not make an issue of it and had my pups ready to go once I arrived. Dylan communicates wonderfully (better than I do, lol). I'm very appreciative!”

“Awesome sitter! They took great care of my two dogs for five days and kept me updated throughout the stay with daily messages and updates on how they were doing. It was clear that my dogs were happy and well taken care of, which made me feel much more comfortable being away from them. No complaints at all, and I would absolutely book with them again when we need a sitter. Highly recommend!”

“Leia did an amazing job looking after my sweet Whispur for a week. She sent tons of photos and put on a lot of effort to get my shy cat to play instead of hiding from her the entire time. She left our house just as we left it before our trip. I would’ve never been able to tell that someone was here if it weren’t for the photos that proved otherwise. 10/10! Would book again.”
“Cindy did a great job taking care of my cat, Milo! He can be a bit shy and somehow she was able to get him to be social. She also watered my tomato plants without being asked, which was very much appreciated especially since I forgot to ask. Thank you Cindy!”
About: I’ve taken care of every kind of dog since I was 12. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets.

I would prefer to take care of your fur babies in your home, so that your pups feel more comfortable in their loving homes when being taken care of.
“Jennifer went above and beyond for my boys! We have a shy cat who wouldn't eat and hid, but she made sure to stick around and ensure he ate just a little before she had to leave.”
“Morgan was fantastic! She took great care of our dog while we were out of town and kept us updated, which gave us real peace of mind. Our pup was happy, well cared for, and clearly received plenty of attention. We highly recommend Morgan to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter.”
“Samantha is AMAZING. She saved our cat from starving to death - I locked him in the bedroom on accident and instead of just saying that she couldn't find him she went looking for him and saved him!!!”
“Crystal is the best!!! THE best. Kind, attentive, and able to be flexible and understanding. I could not have asked for a better sitter and person. She went above and beyond. I am very grateful for her service and my kitties probably think they have a new mom!! Thank you so much Crystal! You rock!!!”

“She was absolutely amazing to my Zuko. She sent me videos and pictures of him, and it really made my feel better about him being taken care of. She also made sure he was fed and had water. Highly recommend! It’s comforting to me that she is a vet tech and has her own cats, so she understands. But definitely will be using her again to take care of my baby Zuko.”
“deana was amazing. She went over and beyond to take care of our dog. Great communication and updates from her throughout.

“Great daycare experience - Nugget came home happy and tired from playing all day! He had a great experience and we would definitely schedule again! Great communication and wonderful family! Thanks for watching our pup!”
“Valerie was awesome! I didn’t know what I was going to do about doggy daycare on Columbus Day since my normal daycare was shut down for the holiday. Valerie was so personable, and I could see her love for dogs when I first met her! Wish I could use her more, but Clyde is just super familiar with where he typically goes. I highly recommend Valerie! She had to have been very attentive to take so many pics of him! Loved her! She was awesome!”
“Last minute booking and very caring. Provided a lot of pictures and our pup was so happy. She’s very anxious but it didn’t seem that way with Kyrie. Will be booking again in the future!”
About: I have had animals all of my life and love caring for and playing with them. I will always treat your animals like my own. I am a stay at home mom of three, so I have open availability. My two older kidd are gone for school during the week. So its just me and my three year old. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs who like meeting new dog friends. They would be let out multiple times a day and fed depending in your feeding schedule and played with constantly.
About: As a stay-at-home mother and wife, I have been caring for my people and fur babies for the last 17 years. We are a pet-loving family and we're routinely called upon to care for our friend's animals. We treat them like our own and have had zero issues with them while they're with us. We completely understand that entrusting the care of your pets can be stressful. We can alleviate that concern for you. Let's team up today! I am avalable to care for your animals after 8:30am and up until 3pm on weekdays (while kids are in school) and have a mostly clear schedule on the weekends. We can discuss in greater detail, if necessary. If your pet/pets are comfortable in a kennel or enjoys car rides, they can accompany me to school drop off and pick up. This would enable an earlier drop off and later pick up time. At home, we have a walled-in backyard. We're able to let our animals out to use the bathroom and stretch their legs without any care or concern for them running away. At our client's homes, we will regularly let their pets out into their walled backyards or will walk them, if requested.
About: I've worked in animal care for several years, starting at a dog boarding and daycare facility where I spent six years. I began as a kennel technician and worked my way up to general manager, gaining extensive experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, behaviors, and medical needs. I'm currently pursuing a long-term goal of becoming a veterinary technician. In my free time, I foster animals for a local rescue that I'm passionate about. I take pride in using fear-free handling techniques, understanding animal body language, working through behavioral challenges, and providing compassionate care for medically compromised pets. While I'm relatively new to Rover, I've been caring for pets in my home for years. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving their owners peace of mind. I'll treat your pets like they're my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay. I work full-time as a veterinary assistant at a local animal hospital. I have at least two days off each week and work a half day on Wednesdays. While I am away during part of the day, I come home every day during my hour lunch break to let your baby out for a potty break, playtime, and some extra love and attention. In the evenings, I enjoy taking dogs for walks (weather permitting) and spending quality time with them. When I have pets in my care, I plan my schedule around their needs. I avoid making additional plans so I can provide plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime, cuddles, and consistency with their normal routine. I do provide care in your home, with the same schedule/availability. Such as; going to your home on my break to care for the pet(s), only sitting for one family at a time, walks, etc. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable, loved, and at home as possible while you're away. I have a fully fenced backyard. I also have a pool that is currently being fenced for added safety. My philosophy is simple: pets are never left unattended outside. If your pet is crate-trained or simply feels more comfortable in a crate, I have plenty of space to set one up for daytime or overnight use. I only care for one client's pet(s) at a time to provide the safest environment and plenty of one-on-one attention. I have a designated "dog cabinet" stocked with essentials like pill pockets, peanut butter, and ability to keep any medications your pet may need during their stay. If your pet rides in my vehicle, I use a pet seat belt to help keep them secure during travel. I ask that owners provide a properly fitted harness or collar and leash. If you're unable to do so, I have extras available (with your permission) to safely transfer your pet to and from my home and for walks. I do my best to maintain your pet's normal feeding schedule, so I appreciate detailed instructions regarding meals, treats, and any special preferences. I also always ask about food sensitivities, allergies, or other dietary needs to ensure your pet stays happy and healthy. These apply to in your home as well.

About: I have 6 years of professional animal experience! This experience includes working in a dog boarding facility, professional petsitting, grooming, and zookeeper experience working with exotic animals!

About: Most of my experience comes from caring for my senior beagle, who I’ve raised since he was a puppy. He still has plenty of energy, so I’m very used to daily walks, playtime, and keeping a steady routine. I study from home most days, so I’m around a lot and can give dogs regular breaks, attention, and a calm place to hang out. I’m a medical student who studies from home most days, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I already take my own dog out for daily walks and breaks, so adding another dog to that schedule works well. I can easily fit in regular walks, feeding times, playtime, and checkins throughout the day. I live in a pet-friendly with plenty of open areas to walk. Inside, I keep a clean, supervised, and cozy home. I treat every dog gently and carefully, just like I treat my own.

About: With over 30 years of experience caring for dogs, loving animals has always been second nature to me. I’ve had dogs my entire life—they’ve never been “just pets,” but true members of the family. Creating a safe, loving, and happy environment for them brings me so much joy. I’m home during the day, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout their stay. It would truly be our pleasure to welcome your furry family member into our home and treat them like one of our own while you’re away. Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I’m home throughout the day and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to give your pet consistent attention, plenty of potty breaks, playtime, and lots of love. I enjoy a peaceful home environment, which makes it easy to provide a calm, comforting space for pets to feel safe and relaxed. Whether it’s sticking to a routine or giving a little extra TLC, I’m able to be fully present and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

She interacted very well with Marty during our meet and greet and came as scheduled for his walk while we were away from home for an extended time. Emily provided photos of Marty and put all items back as she found them. I am glad to have found her and would seek her out again in the future!”

He still has plenty of energy, so I’m very used to daily walks, playtime, and keeping a steady routine. I study from home most days, so I’m around a lot and can give dogs regular breaks, attention, and a calm place to hang out. I’m a medical student who studies from home most days, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I already take my own dog out for daily walks and breaks, so adding another dog to that schedule works well. I can easily fit in regular walks, feeding times, playtime, and checkins throughout the day. I live in a pet-friendly with plenty of open areas to walk. Inside, I keep a clean, supervised, and cozy home. I treat every dog gently and carefully, just like I treat my own.
About: I have had animals all of my life and love caring for and playing with them. I will always treat your animals like my own. I am a stay at home mom of three, so I have open availability. My two older kidd are gone for school during the week. So its just me and my three year old. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs who like meeting new dog friends. They would be let out multiple times a day and fed depending in your feeding schedule and played with constantly.
About: I have always had a love for animals. Every one of them has a place in my heart. I will always do what they need and want! I am always available for an animal in need. I have a flexible schedule and willing to work to fit your animal's needs. ( : I do not permit any animals in my home. I am willing to do house visits at your home and provide for your animal's while you're away (:
About: I have had animals my whole life! They are very special blessings that are a part of the family, large and small! I have owned many different types of animals from mice, hampsters, rabbits, cats, dogs, reptiles, birds and horses! I have also worked with different types of farm animals as well. Including many with special needs. All animals need basic physical care, but they also need the emotional care and mental activity to florish. The more I know about your pet the better I can help! I'm happy to answer any questions about my past animal experience in detail. I'm flexible, if they have appointments, strict schedules or extra special care there is nothing that cannot be worked out. We can discuss your fur babies needs in detail so while you are away you will be confident they are receiving the best care possible. I'm currently working part-time, therefore have the time to be of service to people and their pets. My schedule may change throughout the year but I'll be sure to keep it updated! My safety and your pets safety will always be the number one priority. I always enter spaces neutral. If your animal is new to this and needs to build trust first, we can definitely make a plan for that too.

“Kristin was absolutely wonderful with our dog! She was reliable, communicative, and genuinely cared. She kept us updated while we were away and made the whole experience stress-free. Our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. We would definitely book with Kristin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”
“My dogs came home happy and well-cared for after their stay with Lindsey. She responded quickly whenever I reached out and kept me updated on how they were settling in. The photos she sent were so appreciated, especially since I hate being away from my pups. She truly made me feel comfortable and confident that they were in good hands. This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. I will definitely book with Lindsey again!”
“Kyrie was amazing! Cooper had a blast while we were away. Kyrie was very attentive to Cooper and frequently took him on walks. He kept us updated with lots of photos and videos making our trip away stress free and knowing Cooper was in good hands. Highly recommend and will be using Kyrie again in the future.”
“This was my second time using rover and my German Shepherd had a great time. I appreciate all the updates and the level of care Ms. Shaniece provided. Sometimes I get nervous with leaving Zeke because he’s so big, energetic and at times requires a lot of attention, however, could tell once I picked him up he was in good hands.”
“Valerie did an excellent job of caring for my old girl while I was away. It gave me peace of mind knowing that my Princess was being cared for and given the attention she needed. I will book Valerie again and recommend her to anyone who is looking for a responsible, caring person to board their dog.”
“Cindy was awesome. She was able to accommodate us at the last minute while we were in town. We will definitely use her anytime we need to board our fur baby when we’re in town.”
“Julia was great! She was responsive and kept me posted throughout my pets stay with her. She was always available and quick to answer my questions. She sent me pictures of my puppy everyday and kept me up to date with everything. She made sure my puppy was well taken care of. She was even kind enough to meet with me a few days before my pet stayed with. My dog has separation anxiety but she did great with Julia. Thank you so much Julia for making this experience as smooth as possible.”
“Brittany was great! She communicated well throughout King and Dova’s stay. She provided me with pictures and videos of how they were doing. She spoiled them a little. I definitely think they enjoyed themselves! 🤭”
“Alexander was a lifesaver when I had to go out of town short notice. He was quick to respond, and didn’t hesitate to watch her. He greeted her with a treat and followed my rules that I have instilled at my house with Honey. I would most definitely use him again in the future. Thank you, again!”
“Dylan and his wife were very accommodating. After returning from my trip, I was held up at the airport which pushed my pickup time back a couple of hours. They were so sweet to not make an issue of it and had my pups ready to go once I arrived. Dylan communicates wonderfully (better than I do, lol). I'm very appreciative!”
About: What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like family. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I’m patient with puppies, attentive to senior pets, and happy to follow individual routines, feeding schedules, medications, and special care instructions. My goal is for every pet to feel comfortable, loved, and right at home while their family is away. I work from home, so pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. Pets get plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day rather than being left alone for long periods. I’m able to keep a consistent routine and give each pet the individual care and attention they need while their owners are away. Pets staying in my home become part of the family! I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment with plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and cuddles. Since I work from home, I’m able to keep a close eye on pets throughout the day and follow their normal routines, feeding schedules, medications, and special needs. My goal is to make every pet feel relaxed, happy, and at home while their family is away.
“Awesome sitter! They took great care of my two dogs for five days and kept me updated throughout the stay with daily messages and updates on how they were doing. It was clear that my dogs were happy and well taken care of, which made me feel much more comfortable being away from them. No complaints at all, and I would absolutely book with them again when we need a sitter. Highly recommend!”

“Ray was outstanding, always replies back, always sends pictures. He made me feel real comfortable leaving my "son" with him. Very friendly guy and he even gave my buddy a scarf/handkerchief. Strongly recommend Ray. If I need a dog sitter again, Ray is who I am calling.”
“Anastasia was fantastic! Both of my dogs were wonderfully taken care of and had a great time. She kept me updated and made sure to send pictures as well! I will definitely be using her services again!”
