“Amy is an outstanding pup sitter! We'd give her 10 stars if we could. She's super communicative and quick to respond to questions. While we were on our trip, she sent two or three updates, with photos, each day. It was fun to watch our pup settle in with her care. She provides exercise, tons of playtime, and cuddles. Definitely will call on Amy to watch our pup again! Thanks so much, Amy!”
“Colby and David were both very welcoming to me and my dog Penelope. It was easy to set up a meet and greet and they answered all my questions. They have a nice set up to accommodate dogs and make them comfortable and at home. Penelope’s first stay went smoothly. Communication was fast and clear. Would book again.”
“Lindsay was amazing!!! Our 5 month old puppy stayed with her for over a week and it was the best experience. She worked with her on some basic training, got her to sleep in a crate and sent daily pictures and updates! We will definitely use her again in the future!!”
“Melissa is great. This is our dog’s second stay with Melissa and they were much more at home with her. Melissa is very responsive to any questions and always kept me updated. Thank you so much.”
“Super pleased with the care my dog received for her first week with Ashley! She was well taken care of and was happy while I was away. I got lots of pictures and updates, which helped me feel at ease. I’m already booked again with Ashley and appreciate the sense of security she gives me while my family travels.”
“Vanessa and her husband were great! They provided daily updates with pictures and we’re always responsive throughout the process. I’d definitely recommend them to look after your pups!”
“Karen watched my dog Nico for about two weeks and was a pleasure to work with. She was extremely responsive and friendly, willing to work with me in an odd situation as well. Nico adored her and I will absolutely recommend her.”
“Christopher, thank you so much for taking care of Wyatt this last week and for all the daily pics and updates. I feel like he really loved his time with you and your pets. It was probably a much more social environment for him that has been a positive experience for him. Thank you!”
“I booked Tasha for my dog Milo and had a great experience! You can tell Tasha cares for her clients (and their owners). I got many updates thoroughout the day including pictures! I would definitely use Tasha again. I especially loved the report card after we got back from our trip. It’s nice to know that I didn’t have to worry about Milo during our vacation. He was well taken care of, highly recommend Tasha.”
“I would definitely have John and Jessica watch Jasper whenever we are out of town! They sent updates and photos each day and I knew Jasper was happy, safe, and getting plenty of exercise while we were gone. They also gave us a cute gift bag with a toy, Polaroid of Jasper, and other goodies which was very sweet.”
“Allison is such an angel! She cared for my baby Max through his worst days of having cancer. Thank you for all the love and care you showed Max through this difficult time, we both appreciate you so much! ❤️🩹🙏🏼”
“If you treasure your dog you will want to leave him/her with Bob and Vicky. They went the extra mile of interacting with my sweet dog, Hetty. They walked her, played tug, and introduced new fun toys to her play time. They also took time to cuddle and pet her. In short, Hetty received the same loving treatment as their dog, Jax. Daily they sent updates on Hetty along with pictures and videos. I could tell Hetty was having as much fun at their house as I was having on vacation. I highly recommend them and will use them again.”
“Nalleli and her family are awesome! This was the second time they watched our sweet golden doodle and we had no hesitations with them- we know she was safe and well taken care of! Nalleli’s communication is also quick and she worked with us with our travel got delayed! We would highly recommended them!”

“I am so thrilled to have found Michelle. Emmett just spent his second week-long visit with her and there will be more. I am convinced from the wonderful pictures and videos I get, as well as how calm and relaxed he has been when I pick him up, and especially when I dropped him off the second time, that he is at least just as well cared for and loved as he is at home. Maybe even more because Michelle devotes her whole day to the dogs she cares for. I am very grateful to Michelle for the peace of mind I have about leaving Emmett with her and the freedom that affords me.”
“Haley is great! She was so easy to coordinate with and is super responsive. She kept me updated on how Tucker was doing throughout the stay and he had a great time! I look forward to having Haley watch Tucker for my future needs.”

“Rebecca is such a sweet and genuine soul who our boys love to see when she lets them out in the middle of the day! She is punctual, respectful, great with our pups, sends pics, thorough updates, and is just a wonderful person all around! Highly recommend!”
“First time meeting Beverly was amazing. Our cat Bella is very shy. Bella came out while we were talking and was looking at Bev, taking it all in. It was such a comfort to have Bev here with Bella. I was more relaxed knowing Bella wasn't alone. The house was immaculate. Bella's bathroom was clean. Beverly is just a wonderful and caring woman. She is a keeper. My husband and I highly recommend Beverly.”
“Ashley was fantastic. She showed up with a C notebook, took notes, asked all the right questions. She stayed in communication with us about the cats and left the most adorable drawing of the kitties for us when we got home. 10 out of 10!”
“Sydney was amazing. It was love at first sight for me and my dog. She was so caring and compassionate. I enjoyed the pictures she sent to confirm he was doing good. I will have her come again next time.”
“Sage did a great job checking in on our cat for 5 mornings in a row! She did everything we asked of her. She was very punctual by checking in with us each morning. And left us a picture each day. My cat unfortunately had other things on his mind. He was playing hard to get. As Sage came by early each morning, he was either still out hunting, or was hiding in his secret place. She said she only caught a glimpse of him one morning, and was too fast for her to get a picture of him. But she was patient with him. She added a few treats to his bowl of food each morning in order to see if he was eating. He was defiantly eating his treats, and his food. I think he was just being shy, as this was only the second time we've hired a cat sitter. We also opted to have him stay outside the whole time we were gone. As he is mostly an outdoor cat, and the weather was mild the whole time. Once we returned home, he was in our back yard, and came running when we called him. He was in happy spirits, and glad to see us!”
“Cabrielle is incredible!! She played and played, made my pup a treat, walked him, brought my mail in, found his leash/harness and walked him, bathed him even!! I’ll book her every chance I get!”
About: Hi! My name is Naomi and I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, from lizards and snakes to chickens and ducks and a few dogs and cats in the middle.

I am very attentive to their needs and behaviors. Because I worked in veterinary medicine I am always on high alert for any issues that might arise.

We will definitely be using her services again. Thank you so much!!”

“Even-keeled and easygoing, Emily was a good choice! She cared for my golden retriever for the day and my mind was at ease, knowing she’d be watched well, played with and fed by someone who knew what they were doing. Even when I had to make MULTIPLE last minute time changes in the schedule, Emily took it like a champ and without complaint! My golden seemed her normal dorky self after her stay!”
About: We have two high energy dogs that require regular exercise so I understand how hard it is to find a sitter who can meet that need. While your best friend is with us they can expect to get an off leash, 3-5 mile adventure every other day. I am trained and comfortable with an e collar but if your dog does not have good recall, no worries, I always carry a long line. Our home is best suited for medium to large dogs. I am a stay at home mom with 2 large dogs of my own. My dogs need regular off leash walks so you can expect your dog to get out plenty while with us. I have a large, fenced in yard. If I have to leave the house without the dogs I have spare kennels and a furbo dog camera to keep an eye on everyone.

About: We're a family affair: my sister Rachel, my son, and I all help with bookings. Beyond a basic love for dogs we are also experienced with furry fosters. We have housed all types, breeds, ages, abilities of dogs/puppies for days, weeks or months at a time depending on their individual needs. Our dogs are part of the family and welcome others into the pack well. Between the three of us, someone is almost always home and available to provide individual play time, lap time, TLC, and whatever else is needed. Dogs are excellent judges of character and would know right away when meeting us that we're gentle souls with a deep love for pups of all kinds. I'm currently a full-time student and available for overnights, weekend stays, or evening check-ins. My sister works a flexible schedule and is home most days. We can come to you or your fur babies can come to us, whatever makes them most comfortable. Our dogs are part of the family and welcome to be close to us on the couch or in bed. They are friendly and welcoming to new furry friends. We have also crate trained previous pets and understand that method as well. We are flexible and will respect your wishes. I currently work part-time and have plenty of time to play with pups 🐶 and havre lots of support/backup help with Rachel and Gabriel when needed. I have lots of space and ways to provide opportunities for your pup to socialize with mine or separate them for some downtime as needed with 3 levels, gates and crates. We discuss your pup's needs and develop a customized plan for each stay to support your wishes.

About: I've been around animals my whole life. Like my daughter (who loves to help with Rover) I had an inexplicable connection with all animals from a young age. I've always known working with animals in some capacity was my life's calling. I started with Rover years ago and quickly realized I had found the thing I loved and could make a living doing. It is my passion! I've never met a dog I didn't get along with and hope to add your dog(s) to my list of new best friends. 😊 Taking care of animals is my daily and weekly routine. Rarely do scheduling conflicts arise and my calendar is updated frequently to prevent that. This is my full time job. All I ask is for any specific instructions when leaving them in my care or having me come to your home and I follow them to the letter. Whatever your pet's routine is, that's what it will be with me.

About: I have been dog sitting off and on for several years-for various animals of all shapes and sizes- cats, a pit bull, mutt, a border collie, and a baby calf. I love and feel comfortable with all animals! I have a flexible schedule, and would love to follow whatever routines you already have with your pet. I also feel comfortable with watering plants or whatever other odd jobs might be needed. They will certainly be given lots of love while I get to spend some time with them! I have a part time job currently, but I have flexibility with my hours. I have my own vehicle and can stop by to visit your pet. I have my own large dog, and am comfortable with the routine of pet care- including daily brushing hair or teeth, feeding schedules, walks, simple training, and dog park visits or outside play time. My dog loves to just snuggle, and so I make time for that as well.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, my family cared for all kinds of animals including dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, goats, and more. At one point we even had 7 dogs at once! Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and over the years family, friends, neighbors, and now Rover clients have trusted me with their pets. I’ve been boarding and caring for dogs through Rover for over 3 years and truly love what I do. I’ve also spent time learning from professional dog trainers, which helped teach me proper handling, walking, and understanding different dog temperaments and behaviors. I’m a stay-at-home mom to my two boys, who are now a little older and very used to being around dogs. Because I’m home most of the day, your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, potty breaks, and cuddles throughout their stay. My husband and I are both huge animal lovers, and our home is very dog-friendly and relaxed. We have a fully fenced yard, two friendly dogs, and lots of space for your pup to feel comfortable and at home. I can also crate your dog if requested or follow any specific routines you have for them. Dogs are allowed on the furniture here because we believe pets are family too! I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I always do my best to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment while keeping owners updated with messages and photos during their stay. I’m a stay-at-home mom with two young boys who are now older and very comfortable around dogs. Because I’m home most of the day, pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. Your pup will get lots of supervision, attention, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. We live a pretty home-based lifestyle and don’t travel often, so I’m able to provide a consistent and reliable environment for the dogs in my care. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. We have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and two friendly dogs who love having company. I’m experienced with different dog personalities and always do slow introductions to help everyone feel comfortable. I can crate your dog if requested and I’m happy to follow any routines, feeding schedules, or special instructions you provide. Dogs in our home are treated like family — including plenty of couch cuddles if they enjoy them! I also provide regular photo and video updates so you can feel comfortable while you’re away.

“Amy is an outstanding pup sitter! We'd give her 10 stars if we could. She's super communicative and quick to respond to questions. While we were on our trip, she sent two or three updates, with photos, each day. It was fun to watch our pup settle in with her care. She provides exercise, tons of playtime, and cuddles. Definitely will call on Amy to watch our pup again! Thanks so much, Amy!”
