“It’s not easy to find a sitter for two big dogs. We really appreciate you making it possible for us to travel knowing that our babies are safe and being cared for.”
“Bandito stayed with Jessica for 3 nights and he can’t wait to meet his new friends again. I am also Happy that Jessica was able to accommodate my short notice request. My transactions and communications were wonderful and easy. Jessica will be my first option for the above reasons. Thank you Jessica!”
“Melanie is the greatest! She was so accommodating, extremely easy to communicate with and she provided daily updates with several photos. We are looking forward to our next trip soon and Melanie will be who we call again!”
“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.”
“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.”
“We are repeat clients with Staci and trust her and her wonderful family to sit for our baby girl. Our dog had diabetes which makes it very hard to find someone to provide daily injections, Staci is a pro and caring sitter and her family treats our dog like their own! We appreciate Staci so much!”
“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.”
“Ashley was wonderful with our girls. She read their personalities perfectly, and sent lots of photos during their stay. We very much appreciated her care and attention. When back in the area we would definitely love to have our pups stay with her.”
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.
“Best experience ever! Jen and her family treated Archie like their own. Beautiful home. Fenced in yard and her pets we so friendly. It was obvious from the pics that he had a great time. First overnight experience on Rover and it worked out great. We wish we lived closer so we could use again!!”
“Yvonne took wonderful care of our kitten in her home. She sent us pictures and updates. Her home was lovely and she was super nice. We would definitely board with her again.”
About: I pride myself on being a loving and attentive pet sitter! Some of the services I am able to provide are long peaceful walks around my neighborhood and reliable transportation for small adventures like the beach! I have ample time throughout my days to provide excellent care for your fur baby. I work from home so I am usually always avaliable. My mail priority with any animal is making them feel safe. Whether that means treats and warming up slowly at their own pace, or playing until they can't play anymore!
“Tracy is the best! She took such good care of my dog, Will, he thinks he was at doggie camp! He had the run of the yard, got along well with other dogs, played his favorite games, took long walks. Excellent communication. Tracy sent frequent updates and photos, let me know how he was doing everyday. I had an extended unexpected travel delay, and Tracy was just great! I highly recommend her, and I definitely hope she’ll be able to take care of my Will the next time I travel.”
“Very nice and easy going. Understands animals very well and treated my dog like one of her own. Received pictures and updates on how my dog was doing. Very accommodating and welcomed anything needed for comfort of my dog and my peace of mind”
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!
“We couldn't have found a better place for our pup to be! Austyn sent daily pictures and updates and our dog loved having such a big fenced in yard to play in! Great experience, will definitely be rebooking with Austyn !”
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.
“Excellent experience for man and beast! David and OneUp the wonder dog got on famously. Both were sad to part ways. I think OneUp misses the excitement of the other dogs and trips to the dog park and beach. David was an excellent dog friend: he sent pictures and text messages to assure us of OneUps status, and he even purchased some fancy dog food for OneUp after dog stopped eating. Heartily recommend David for dog care.”

“Highly recommend! My cat was looked after so well and in every photo sent she looked so happy and taken care of when I had to be away for a few days. If you need someone who will look after your cat and provide them extra love I highly recommend these sitters!”
“Kaylee was wonderful, when we met I could tell she has had a lot of good experience with working with animals. We've never used Rover before and were nervous about leaving our babies behind for the week, but it went wonderfully. We looked forward to getting the daily updates with the pictures. If you're on the fence about using Rover, definitely do it, and if you can book Kaylee she is awesome! We will definitely use her again when we travel!”

“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.”

“Staci was super sweet and kind to Lola. She works at the humane society which helped me be so much more relaxed because I knew she would know how to take care of her. Will definitely ask her to pet sit again!”
About: I have cat sat for a few years now, I’ve been a reliable person my family and friends can go to whenever they need someone to watch, play with, feed, and cuddle their fur babies. I absolutely love cats and jump at every opportunity I get to be with them.
“Teona is absolutely wonderful! Our Moo has to have daily meds for his heart congestion condition and T was amazing!!! Highly recommend and we are keeping her on speed dial!!❤️”
“Kelley was easy to communicate with. She stopped by for a meet-and-greet 2 days before she did a drop-in visit. I appreciated that. She came by, as scheduled, so I did not have to worry about getting home early to let my dogs out. I will use Kelley again.”
“Katia was wonderful! She kept our kitty lots of company, took great care of her and made sure she was loved and played with. She was great at keeping me updated and I have complete peace of mind while we were gone :)”

“Yvonne did a terrific job with our persnickety Shih Tzu, Fitz. She was patient and kind as he settled in, even after his hunger strike on day one. She sent pictures of him as we traveled, reassuring us that we had left him in the right place. Highly recommend Yvonne!”

About: I’ve raised and potty trained both small and large breed puppies, cared for senior dogs (including administering seizure medication), and taught dogs how to walk calmly on a leash. I also love caring for cats. I’ve volunteered at the humane society, which gave me experience with shy, anxious, and high-energy pets. I’m patient, reliable, and committed to keeping your animals safe, comfortable, and well exercised. I also understand that pet owners have busy schedules, and it’s easy to feel guilty when life gets hectic. While I can’t replace the love you give your pet, I’m here to support you. I’ll care for your pet with the same attention, gentleness, and consistency I give my own, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.

I truly just enjoy getting to meet and spend time with different animals. I also love being able to get in some exercise of my own while going on walks with dogs.. I’m currently working part time at a doggy daycare. Which gives me plenty of free time to fill! I look forward to filling it with your fur babies! I have a large fenced in yard to spend plenty of outside time in safely with your pet. All dogs must be cat friendly. We are no strangers to couch snuggles too!

“We are repeat clients with Staci and trust her and her wonderful family to sit for our baby girl. Our dog had diabetes which makes it very hard to find someone to provide daily injections, Staci is a pro and caring sitter and her family treats our dog like their own! We appreciate Staci so much!”
“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.”
“Ashley was wonderful with our girls. She read their personalities perfectly, and sent lots of photos during their stay. We very much appreciated her care and attention. When back in the area we would definitely love to have our pups stay with her.”
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.
“Tracy is the best! She took such good care of my dog, Will, he thinks he was at doggie camp! He had the run of the yard, got along well with other dogs, played his favorite games, took long walks. Excellent communication. Tracy sent frequent updates and photos, let me know how he was doing everyday. I had an extended unexpected travel delay, and Tracy was just great! I highly recommend her, and I definitely hope she’ll be able to take care of my Will the next time I travel.”
“Very nice and easy going. Understands animals very well and treated my dog like one of her own. Received pictures and updates on how my dog was doing. Very accommodating and welcomed anything needed for comfort of my dog and my peace of mind”
“We couldn't have found a better place for our pup to be! Austyn sent daily pictures and updates and our dog loved having such a big fenced in yard to play in! Great experience, will definitely be rebooking with Austyn !”
“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!”
“Lisa and Dean took great care of our dog. He must have been comfortable there because he rolled over for a belly rub, which he only does if he's relaxed and happy. Lisa sent lots of pictures, which was great.”
“Kariah is absolutely wonderful! She took very good care of my dog while we took ferry to the Cumberland Island. She sent us pictures and updated us about how my dog was doing. It looked like my dog was also having a vacation in her home. When we picked up our dog, it was such a nice surprise that she presented me a ‘thank you’ card as well as a dog biscuit as a gift. She is so thoughtful and sweet, and made our first time experience with Rover perfect! Thank you, Kariah!”
About: I've always had and been around all types of animals, especially dogs. I'm passionate and patient when it comes to animals, and I'm also a people person, who's reliable. I had a dog for over 15 years who suffered with seizures, giving me experience in dealing with dogs with special needs or who need medicine administered. I also understand the importance of strict dietary and exercise needs in order to help a dog have a good life. I'm very active and I love to spoil animals, dogs have always been a favorite but animals in general are a great passion of mine. I'm currently working full time, but I lost my dog in November and I'm looking for a way to still get that puppy love fix. My availability will be rather consistent with my regular job allowing me to have Mondays off and I can work my schedule the other days of the week around helping out with having consistent schedules as well. Not shy to assist with training and positive reinforcement of good behavior. I'm available weekends and Mondays for boarding/walking and most other days for walks or visits and daily nourishment. My regulat work hours are 9-6pm Tue-Friday I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space and an otherwise pet free home so your animal will get all of my attention as my cat is staying at my grandmother's to keep her company
“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!”
