“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 amazing with keeping us updated and sending us plenty of pics. He was very accommodating with our schedule. Fenced in yard and doggy door were all plus when we made the decision to use Ray to watch our baby. Will definitely be leaving Mami with you again. Thanks for everything and answering all our questions.”
“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!”
“Another FUN time for Fiona. She obviously played hard with Roo because she slept like a log all night when she got home. I was pleased to see that Fiona got a lot of one-on-one attention. I loved getting the photos of her playing or relaxing.”
“Jaci is the absolute BEST! I’ve been using rover now for about 3 years for my dog Jasper. And she’s the BEST sitter out of every sitter that has kept Jasper. Not saying the other sitters weren’t good but Jaci is the absolute best. I reached out to her last minute for overnight boarding. She responds fast. She cares for Jasper like I care for him if not better. She sent me videos & pictures the entire time he was there. She’s the first sitter that has ever welcomed me into her home to check it out just to be sure Jasper is in a comfortable nice and safe home. Jaci’s home is definitely big, nice, & comfortable. She had other fur babies of her own. I knew Jaci would be the best after dropping him off to her. He was whining to get out of my arms into hers. If you see this review PLEASE, PLEASE PLEASE consider letting Jaci care for your dog. I love her! And I will be letting her sit Jasper again very soon.”
“Dana and Brandon were great. Clean and welcoming environment. Kinda felt like dropping our fur-kid off at a friends house for the weekend. They stayed in touch with us and sent updates and pics. We will definitely be calling on them in the future and recommending them to our friends.”
“Responded very fast to a last minute stay and was able to accommodate. It was only our second time away from our Laila but this time we went out of the country. Needless to say our nerves went out the window quickly because during drop off Laila felt right at home. We will 1000% book again.”
“Thank you, Shaniece! You kept my furry baby so I could get some "me" time. I was able to enjoy my vacation even more when you sent a video, showing how much fun he was having. We'll see you again soon!”
“I can´t say enough good things about these amazing and beautiful people! My baby Gracie had the best vacations ever! She interact with plenty of sweet and friendly dogs, and she received plenty of love by Bryan and his family. I finally was able to enjoyed and relax during my vacations because I knew my dog was extremely happy. I´m so grateful we found Bryan and Jamie. Gracie loves them and so do I. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart!”
“I am a thankful a friend told me about this app and I found Maggie! Her and her family were great with our CC! She kept me updated on how she was doing as well as sending pictures! We will definitely book again! Thank you Maggie!!”
“Judy and Hampton had another great stay with Ladonna and Andy! They get treated as family members and feel the love during their stay. Receiving daily pictures for 9 days helps to ease my anxiety over leaving them behind. It's so nice to go on vacation and not have to worry about my babies; I know they're safe and happy! I will not hesitate to leave them under their care again.”
“Loved the service with Valerie. She kept me updated with pictures and responded right away with any questions I had. I felt comfortable the moment we arrived for drop off. Would definitely book again.”
“I was kept updated about my pup Ashley while out of state. They took such great care of her and were patient with her severe anxiety. Definitely recommend them for others!!”
“I always worry when I board Sebastien because you always hear horror stories. It's not a facility you can go in and inspect, so you rely on reviews and scrutinize profiles and hope for the best. I didn't worry about Sebastien at all after meeting Adria. She was personable and detail oriented and the exterior of her home was clean and well maintained. She sent pictures and updates and gave me notes on his food. She was also not overwhelmed by his high energy antics. He came home happy and clean! It's such a relief to find someone trustworthy, and I highly recommend!”
“While I was on a trip, she looked after my baby. I was terrified to leave him with someone. I felt bad that he believed I had abandoned him. When I was able to speak with her, she kept me informed, which is helpful because it gives me a basic notion of whether he's affected, leaving him with someone else so we can plan how to handle it going forward. Also it helped me cope leaving him. He was happy when I picked him up.”
“Brandi is a Godsend I was so nervous the first time I boarded my Dog Bear with her because he wasn’t use to being around other Dogs and is very shy around people. But everything went well and now he’s like part of their family.”

“Catherine is incredible! I cannot say enough kind things about her. Will be booking with her for all of my future trips. She accommodated multiple schedule changes at the last minute, called immediately when my cat had gotten sick all over the house, remained calm, and cleaned it all! She gave him his meds every single day with updates and made my vacation worry free. Thank you so much!”
“Kalia was wonderful. I was worried about using Rover for my 6 week old kittens but they were in good hands with her. Great communication and my baby kitties really seemed to like her. 10/10, I would schedule her again.”

“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.

I would recommend Michelle to anyone she is wonderful and your pets will have great care while you are away! Thanks Michelle!”
“Paw-some job as always! James has been my go to dog/house sitter for years even before becoming a registered sitter on rover. He really takes care of things as if they are his own, if not better! This time he came to feed our 4 dogs while we were out of town. He couldn’t find where the water dish was for our back yard so he filled one up just in case. I appreciate James so much and hope more people come to know him as the dependable person he is.”

“I have never left my dog, Jordan, with anyone he did not know. My daughter told me about Rover because I was going out of town and couldn't take him with me. I found Ray E. on Rover.

Ray was a wonderful sitter and I will use him again in the future. Aimee McFarling”

“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!”

About: Hi 👋 I offer overnight care in the pet's home environment to be sure they are well cared for while you're away. I'm available to care for them, love on them, and go above and beyond your expectations! I will come do an introductory visit with the pets while you are there so I can meet them and we can go over their routines, what they like to do during the day, discuss any medications, discuss any household chores, and we can be sure the pets will feel comfortable with me as their caregiver while you are away. I've been blessed to care for dogs, cats, horses, ponies, chickens, ducks, turtles, and even catfish. I’ve been blessed to pet sit for years and I will happily provide references at your request! I am available to pet/home sit for any duration. One day/night up to weeks at a time. My rates are fair and affordable. Along with caring for your fur family, I can also handle everyday household tasks such as watering plants, taking the trash to the road, checking the mail, and etc. Household chores are no extra charge. Please, no snakes or lizards. Let's chat! Other than pet sitting, I do ministry with a Christian camp.

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.

“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 amazing with keeping us updated and sending us plenty of pics. He was very accommodating with our schedule. Fenced in yard and doggy door were all plus when we made the decision to use Ray to watch our baby. Will definitely be leaving Mami with you again. Thanks for everything and answering all our questions.”
“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!”
“Another FUN time for Fiona. She obviously played hard with Roo because she slept like a log all night when she got home. I was pleased to see that Fiona got a lot of one-on-one attention. I loved getting the photos of her playing or relaxing.”
“Dana and Brandon were great. Clean and welcoming environment. Kinda felt like dropping our fur-kid off at a friends house for the weekend. They stayed in touch with us and sent updates and pics. We will definitely be calling on them in the future and recommending them to our friends.”
“Responded very fast to a last minute stay and was able to accommodate. It was only our second time away from our Laila but this time we went out of the country. Needless to say our nerves went out the window quickly because during drop off Laila felt right at home. We will 1000% book again.”
“Thank you, Shaniece! You kept my furry baby so I could get some "me" time. I was able to enjoy my vacation even more when you sent a video, showing how much fun he was having. We'll see you again soon!”
“I can´t say enough good things about these amazing and beautiful people! My baby Gracie had the best vacations ever! She interact with plenty of sweet and friendly dogs, and she received plenty of love by Bryan and his family. I finally was able to enjoyed and relax during my vacations because I knew my dog was extremely happy. I´m so grateful we found Bryan and Jamie. Gracie loves them and so do I. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart!”

“I was kept updated about my pup Ashley while out of state. They took such great care of her and were patient with her severe anxiety. Definitely recommend them for others!!”
“I always worry when I board Sebastien because you always hear horror stories. It's not a facility you can go in and inspect, so you rely on reviews and scrutinize profiles and hope for the best. I didn't worry about Sebastien at all after meeting Adria. She was personable and detail oriented and the exterior of her home was clean and well maintained. She sent pictures and updates and gave me notes on his food. She was also not overwhelmed by his high energy antics. He came home happy and clean! It's such a relief to find someone trustworthy, and I highly recommend!”
“While I was on a trip, she looked after my baby. I was terrified to leave him with someone. I felt bad that he believed I had abandoned him. When I was able to speak with her, she kept me informed, which is helpful because it gives me a basic notion of whether he's affected, leaving him with someone else so we can plan how to handle it going forward. Also it helped me cope leaving him. He was happy when I picked him up.”
“Brandi is a Godsend I was so nervous the first time I boarded my Dog Bear with her because he wasn’t use to being around other Dogs and is very shy around people. But everything went well and now he’s like part of their family.”
