Cynthia took great care of Brooks for a weekend stay. Her home and big backyard were perfect for him, and she kept us updated with photos and quick responses, which made us feel really comfortable. He clearly felt right at home — he almost didn’t want to leave! Friendly, flexible, and easy to work with. We’ll definitely be booking with her again.

We went to do a meet and greet with Shea a few weeks before Maisy stayed with Sheas family. The house was well kept and everyone was very friendly and welcoming. We will be making arrangements with Shea in the future for additional stays with Shea and her family. I could tell that Maisy felt very comfortable with them by how well she ate her food while staying with them. I highly recommend giving Shea the opportunity to care for you pet.

We also brought his food and water bowl. Jessica was professional, competent, and caring. Five star rating, for sure! We will definitely use her again.

It was clear that Terry was not just cared for, but genuinely loved and treated like family during the 9 days she stayed with him.

I couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after my dog! She was incredibly caring, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure my pup was happy and comfortable. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos — it was clear she truly enjoyed spending time with my dog and treated her like her own. My dog came back happy, well-exercised, and full of love. I’d 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter!

About: We have been pet sitting for friends and colleagues for 2 years so thought why not join Rover and do more! Our clients love my family and we love their pets so it makes perfect sense. I have 4 kids, a small dog and two cats and my small pets just hide if a visiting pet is too much for them otherwise they don't get bothered or bother anyone else, human or pet! I work from home and I have 4 kids who love cats and dogs and love to help out with the dogs that we already provide services for. We are trusted with hideaway keys to homes to let dogs out and we run them in fenced in yards to burn energy. Then we make sure they have food and water and kennel them if applicable before we leave. In our house, visiting pets are watched over by all members of the family. Sometimes we buy them their own special toy to play with. We make sure they eat and get any meds they might need.

About: Dogs have always been in my life. I volunteered at Animal Lifeline for 8 years and had a dog daycare of my own for a while. Dogs are everything and I’d be honored to love on yours. I currently work full time from home so doggie day care is definitely doable! My day ends at 3 pm so I can be that late afternoon or evening potty break or walk. Weekends have potential as well with pre-arranged time and notice. Should your dog(s) stay with me during the day, I have a fenced yard and no carpet in case of oopsies! If you request that I come to your house I am very reliable, responsible and respectful. I can guarantee a boat load of scritches and belly rubs as well as time for “business”.

Melanie and family were so friendly that my dogs—a 4- and a 12- year-old Havanese—relaxed immediately. Melanie met us in the yard and the dogs trotted away with her without looking back. The dogs were with her for 6 hours and she sent multiple photos and status updates. We would definitely ask Melanie to watch our dogs again!

Above and beyond, thats about how I describe Tanya and her family. We have a very shy rat terrier mix with high anxiety and in just a few minutes warmed up to this dog loving family and played like shes known them all her life. Spending the whole day (over 12 hours) we had absolutely no worries and nothing but pure confidence. The photos she took were fantastic! If you need someone to care for your fur baby for a while, look no further than Tanya!

About: Growing up on a family farm, I have had the opportunity to care for many different kinds of animals (dogs, horses, cats, chickens, goats, pigs and cows). I have taken care of family and friends dogs for the last 20 years. I have raised 5 puppies and have shown a few of them in local shows. My kids are 13 and 10 and love taking our dogs for walks, hikes and playing with them in our very large back yard. I am home all summer and my school year schedule varies so I have plenty of time to take your pup on walks and play with them. I have a large fenced back yard and 2 pups friendly pups. I have the ability to take your dog to either a paved or dirt trail for walks or runs. My dogs walk 4 to 5 miles a day but I can definitely make the walk shorter if needed. I have the ability to separate the dogs if needed. I can also crate the dogs. Our dogs love to lounge on our couches.

It has been a privilege to have met Ali. Her joy over these silly, unique, fun, and personable dogs is infectious. Ali helped to train my dog! Ali helped me to better train my dog! Ali excellent communication skills, easy laughter and a person I could count on. Both Gracie and I will miss her greatly as we have to move out of town. But between Gracie's nose and my memory, we will hope to get near her again.

Heather has been taking care of my pup, Junie for a few weeks. Between her and her two kids, they make sure my girl is well cared for. I never worry about Junie when she is with Heather. Heather even takes her for walks of an evening and drops her off. Heather truly goes above and beyond for my girl! Highly recommend her.

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and patient pet sitter with experience caring for cats with a wide range of personalities..from super social and playful to more independent or shy. I understand that cats thrive on routine and a calm environment, so I always take the time to learn their habits, preferences, and boundaries. Whether your cat loves attention or prefers their space, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m experienced with: • Feeding routines and fresh water care • Litter box cleaning and maintenance • Playtime and enrichment • Giving space to more reserved or anxious cats • Monitoring behavior and overall well-being I’m very detail-oriented and will make sure everything is done exactly how you prefer. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your cat is doing well. I do work full-time as an accountant, but my schedule is very flexible in how I structure my days around watching and caring your animals and their needs! I have a fenced in backyard where my dogs can play and relax without the worry of a leash or harness, and they have free roam of my home

About: I genuinely care about the well being of every dog in my care. I will treat every dog as if it was my own, which means lots of treats(if allowed) and lots of pets, belly scratches and cuddles(if tolerated). I am currently working part-time and healing. Unfortunately financially I need more income so I thought “why not try Rover and spend some time with dogs(which I love doing!)”. So ultimately I will make this fit into my schedule where I can. I’m pretty flexible currently. Give me a chance and I promise you won’t be disappointed. I ask clients to leave detailed instructions. I want to make sure that while you are gone your dogs/cats routine stays as close to normal as possible! If that means your dog goes to paws n pints for a play date on Wednesday @2 then I’ll load up lassie in the car and get there! If your cat gets 3 treats at 3pm everyday then we will make it happen! All joking aside, I aim to please!

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. My wife and I have been married for nearly 40 years, and throughout that time we've shared our home with three wonderful dogs—a Keeshond who lived to 15, a Border Terrier who also lived to 15, and our current French Bulldog, Bella, who is 8 years old. Bella has IVDD (Intervertebral Disc Disease), so I understand the importance of patience, gentle handling, following care routines, and recognizing when a dog needs a little extra attention. Caring for her has given me firsthand experience with dogs that have special health needs and reinforced the value of consistency and compassion. After retiring early from a successful career in information technology leadership, I'm excited to spend more time doing something I genuinely enjoy—helping dogs stay happy, healthy, and active while giving their owners peace of mind. Whether your dog needs a leisurely stroll, an energetic walk, or simply a dependable companion while you're at work, I'll treat them with the same care and respect I give my own. I'm dependable, punctual, cheerful, and an excellent communicator. I'm also very comfortable with technology, so I'm happy to send photo updates and messages during our walks so you can see how your pup is doing. I know how much our dogs mean to us—they're family. My goal is to make every walk safe, fun, and something your dog looks forward to while giving you complete confidence they're in caring, capable hands. Since I'm retired, I have the flexibility to dedicate my weekdays to caring for dogs. I'm available throughout the day until 6:00 p.m. for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and companionship, making me a great fit for busy professionals who want their dogs to get exercise and attention while they're at work. I schedule plenty of time for each visit, so your dog will never feel rushed. Whether your pup enjoys a brisk walk, a leisurely stroll, or simply some one-on-one playtime and affection, I'll tailor each visit to their personality and energy level. Being reliable and punctual is important to me. I'll arrive on time, follow your instructions carefully, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe, and well cared for. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your pet is a big decision. My goal is to provide the same level of care and respect that I would want for my own dog and home. I'll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, walking, medications, playtime, and any special routines or restrictions your dog may have. Having cared for our own French Bulldog with IVDD, I understand the importance of paying close attention to a dog's individual needs and comfort level. I'll always make sure your pet has fresh water, receives plenty of attention and affection, and gets the exercise that's appropriate for them. I'll also treat your home with care by locking doors, respecting your property, and leaving everything just as I found it. Communication is important to me, so I'll send updates and photos during each visit to let you know how your dog is doing. My goal is for you to feel completely confident that your pet is safe, happy, and in caring, dependable hands while you're away.

I prioritize playtime and being active with any pet I’m responsible for. I’m comfortable with both cats and dogs, and can adapt my skills and schedule based on their unique needs. I am ready to support pet owners with short-term drop ins, frequent walks for high energy pets, and extended stays. My work schedule grants me availability to help pet owners during busy vacation times and holiday seasons. I am available to care for pets in their own home. I aim to ease any stress by keeping their environment familiar and maintaining their usual schedule as much as possible.

About: With a lifelong ownership of dogs and cats, my experience expanded into rescue fostering in 2021. During this time, I have successfully handled pets that deal with separation anxiety, reactivity, handicaps, and limited obedience/cooperation. I am genuinely excited to learn more about your pet(s), their specific care requirements, and their quirks. I’d love to have responsibility of being your trusted caretaker while you’re away! I am currently working fully remote so am able to do all activities through the weekdays, and have flexible hours on weekends. I’m available to accommodate your schedule to the best of my ability. My home is pet-free, ensuring a comfortable environment for your pet(s), especially if they don’t get along well with other animals. Drawing from my experience with reactive dogs, I am experienced in implementing safety measures during outdoor walks or encounters with other animals.

About: We have been pet sitting for friends and colleagues for 2 years so thought why not join Rover and do more! Our clients love my family and we love their pets so it makes perfect sense. I have 4 kids, a small dog and two cats and my small pets just hide if a visiting pet is too much for them otherwise they don't get bothered or bother anyone else, human or pet! I work from home and I have 4 kids who love cats and dogs and love to help out with the dogs that we already provide services for. We are trusted with hideaway keys to homes to let dogs out and we run them in fenced in yards to burn energy. Then we make sure they have food and water and kennel them if applicable before we leave. In our house, visiting pets are watched over by all members of the family. Sometimes we buy them their own special toy to play with. We make sure they eat and get any meds they might need.

Scott is always so accommodating and very helpful with his boarding. We have always had an amazing experience with him and our 2 dogs love going over there when we need to board them. Could not recommend more.

Kim took wonderful care of our dog, Cash! She sent a picture during his stay and let us know how he was doing. Will definitely book with Kim again!

I would have to say I was skeptical at first of this website, but Osvaldo and his family definitely made this experience incredible! Not only did he and his family send pictures constantly but they replaced a toy that was accidentally torn while at their home. It was perfectly fine but because they were good honest people they replaced it. Our boy had such a good time. There’s pictures to prove it! I’m so happy we left him with such a good family even if it was for just one day! Thank you so much for keeping our mind at ease!

Alexandra made me feel very comfortable leaving Homie with her for a week. Her house is perfectly set up for dogs and she has a massive backyard. She washed Homie’s bedding before we picked him up and his food bowls too. She provided photos every day and really kept us reassured that he was well taken care of.

Nancy was fantastic and took great care of my baby boy! She was very attentive to his needs, especially giving him his medication multiple times a day. She understands dog behavior and has a pet friendly home. I appreciated the updates with pictures and would definitely recommend her!

Lara and Cary provided Bear the home away from home that he needed while we were away. Lara sent pictures of Bear reassuring us that he was the king of the castle at yet another house. They enjoyed him and pampered him. Quite a treat for our older dog who can be a bit grumpy with his new playful younger sister, Sadie Mae.

Had a great experience booking with Lucia! She took great care of our dog for 3 days and sent pictures/updates. She brought him to the dog park and he got lots of play time. Lucia was a great communicator too!

Elizabeth was super accommodating when our travel plans kept us an extra day longer (snow storm). She was very good at communicating with us by sending picture and video updates but not over the top where it was too much. Our dog Zeus had a blast and we would definitely have him stay with her and her family again!
