“I was a little worried when I dropped cloudy off. This was the first time he ever went to someone besides family, but Ms. Leah made me feel so comfortable and Cloudy had so much fun over there. I appreciate her and her time and all she did to make this a great experience. I recommend her a 100 out of a 100 thank you so much,”


“Adela was awesome! She took great care of my dog Ellie for a few days. She was extremely welcoming and answered any questions I had prior to Ellie’s stay.Her communication skills were on point as well. She put my mind at ease each day by sending updates and lots of pictures :) I think it’s safe to say that my dog really enjoyed her stay. We will def book again with her in the future.”

“My puppy Onyx had a blast I was a little fearful because I just got him and he’s so small. He stayed overnight and when I dropped him off he was a little timid. By the time I returned the next morning he was running around with her lab like they were old friends. I would definitely recommend Shannon for your furry kids.”

“Larrona and her parents are loving & caring. My Trudie really enjoys being at her place. She is flexible and accommodating. I’ve booked multiple stays and each time exceeds my expectations. She’s a keeper!”


“What a great experience. Eboni provided updates and a ton of pictures to let me know how my Serena was doing while we we apart. I didn't have a worry in the world when I saw the smiles she had on her face and her playing with the other dogs in the big backyard. If you need a dog sitter, Ebony is the best.”

“Our pup did great at Mandi’s! I didn’t have to worry at all because she sent pictures of his day and an update of what he did. She was so sweet to send him home with a personalized bandana and a jar of homemade treats! Definitely recommend!”

“Excellent pet sitter! She boarded our puppy for two nights and took great care of her. Our puppy came home happy, healthy, and well-loved. Great communication and a caring environment. Highly recommend!”

“Jennifer is the best dog sitter! Our dogs have so much fun with Sammy & Archie and running around in her backyard. She is great with medication schedules and making sure our dog who is having mobility issues stayed safe & healthy.”

“Thank you Sarah for taking care of our Pepper! She had plenty of room for herself, and plenty of room to play with the other pups! She seemed to enjoy herself from the pictures I received while staying with Sarah! I will definitely use her the next time we need a pup sitter!”

“Laura is awesome! Very kind clearly loves dogs and sent me videos and photos every day. My dog came back super happy and tired from a good day running around her yard.”

“Tami was absolutely fantastic! It was our first time using Rover and she made us feel so comfortable leaving our dogs with her all weekend. She updated us with photos and loved our dogs like they were her own! We will definitely be going back to her!”

“Uno was in great hands! All the updates with pictures and videos were comforting to know he was okay while we were out of town. No issues and he even met a new friend :) Thanks again!”

“Gizmo loves come in to stay with Keli and her family. I’m confident that he is well taken care of here and he is always excited when he sees that we are here for a visit”

“Jacob is a wonderful pet sitter. He took care of my two cats and kept me updated with pics and notes about how they were doing. One of my cats’ had trouble adjusting but he encouraged her everyday to come out of her safe place. She finally came out on the last day. So I will definitely use him again. By the way he took my cats in an emergency situation and contacted me right away. Thank you to Rover, but mostly a huge shout out and thank you to Jacob.”

“Book with Tina & Bob! This was our first time using rover for our senior cockapoo. She stayed multiple nights with Tina & Bob and they treated her like their own. Their house was beautiful and Grace had the perfect setup. They took such care to the smallest details and kept us informed. They are genuine, good people that are a hidden gem on this app. They are true animal lovers that will love your dog like family. We can’t wait to go back. Thanks Tina & Bob!!”

“Olivia is Absolutely Awesome! She was Always on Time, Very Attentive with Niko, Extremely Caring, Respectful of the property, Quick to Respond to Messages, Flexible, & a Heart of Gold! We were so lucky to have connected with Olivia to Assist with Niko while in Alton, IL.”

“Courtney is excellent! She was awesome with our kitties and also great at communicating with us. She made it easy for us to be away. We'll definitely be using her again and recommend her with no hesitation!”


“My cat Daisy and I had another fantastic experience with Jenny! She worked her magic on her drop in visits to care for Daisy while I was away and my typically stranger shy kitty was happy to come out to visit with her. Jenny shared many photos so I could see my girl was doing well and I returned home to a very well cared for and happy cat.”


“Ros is great! She was on time and communicative and seemed very kind. My cats seemed comfortable with her right from the start. I had to go out of town while one of my cats was sick, and Ros was super easygoing about all the extra instructions and annoying follow-up questions. I would definitely book with her again.”


“This is the second time we’ve used Jill to watch our 15 year old “shy” cat, but she loves Jill. The first day my cat stayed in her cat condo but by day 5 she was in Jill’s lap. Jill is so patient, dependable and kind. I will definitely use her anytime we go on vacation.”

About: My name is pronounced like Taya. I have been providing pet care personally and professionally since I was in high school. When I started, I genuinely just loved being around animals and wanted a way make an income while doing something I enjoyed. Years later and I still hold the same sentiment. My family and I have always welcomed dogs and cats into our homes and cared for them as additional kids in the household. I took a break from pet care to focus on building myself and my goals, but now as a homeowner of three years, I want to extend my home and services again to your fur babies. I work full-time, 100% remotely from home for a law firm located in Pennsylvania. I am always at home, especially during the weekdays, with my six pets (two dogs and four cats).

They are my world and are very spoiled. I have experience in giving medication or special care as mine require that as well, feeding, bathing, and walking.

About: I love all breeds of dogs. I used to walk my neighbors doggies for fun when I was little. I've house sat for many friends with animals & plants for long periods of time. I've raised many puppies in my life time. I have two of my own that are now 2 and 5. They're everything to me. There's absolutely no better feeling than hearing the pitter patter of their feet on the floor as they're coming to attack me with love and kisses. I've never been without at least one dog in my household as long as I've been alive and I wouldn't have it any other way. I've also played sports my whole life so I love being active and playing games with the pups. I'm currently working part time so my availability is pretty open for the most part right now. I'm mainly unavailable after 4pm on Tuesdays and Fridays. I have two full sized crates at my home and a fenced in back patio with great sun for sunbathing. If I'm in your home, I'll respect your home as if it were mine & make sure the babies get soo much lot of love and attention. Picture/ video updates as often as you'd like. ❤️

“I can’t say enough great things about Tami. I knew I’d be gone for most of the day and she took excellent care of my high energy border collie/lab, Bella. She sent pics of her playing with another dog which was awesome. I will definitely call her again for all my fur babysitting needs.”


About: I have 10+ years of experience with animals. Growing up by a dirt road in Alabama , we always had strays make their way to us. We took care of them until their next home. Weather it was dog, cats, goats or turtles etc. I was there to make sure they had a friend. I’ve taken college corses on training dogs although didn’t finish due to becoming a mother so im well educated in understanding dogs and able to tendbto thier needs/prefacence. We have a large backyard fenced, covered & partly enclosed patio & love to give. Animals are truly a wonderful being to have around and I want to teach my children the importance of them. Dogs of all sizes are welcomed although I do prefer them to be house/potty trained due to my youngest boys running around. I take my oldest son to library/park at times we can spend anywhere between 1-4 hours there (if a dog is leash trained very well I'm okay bringing them to the park with us & I pick up my youngest from his program at 3pm (right down the road) other than weekly/biweekly grocery/shopping trips,and random fun days, we are at the house. We treat your dog like our family so that means ofc they are allowed on the couch and we have a fenced in back yard & covered patio while we love to spend time outside so you can be assured majority of the time we will be right there beside em. I do have a cat who spends majority of the time in our bedroom.

I create a calm, safe environment for each dog, keep communication open with regular updates, and do everything I can to make sure both you and your pup feel secure and supported.

About: I work 8-4:30pm Monday through Friday, I can do before work and after work depending on the time and area pretty much always available on weekends feel free to reach out 😃. I have been around animals my whole life. As a child we had three American Bull dogs. I have taken care of animals for friends when they were out of town until they return home. I personally have a dog named Simba, he’s very loving and loves attention. We go on walks and play fetch, he gets spoiled with toys weekly. Pet care fits into my schedule because I can drop in before and after work. Weekends I’m free all through out the day so plenty of time for extra attention! I work from home three days out of the week Monday - Friday and go in twice a week. I follow all owner rules and like to send pictures and videos of their happy fur babies. I care for Simba by taking him potty regularly making sure he has plenty of food and water. We go for walks when the weather lets us.
About: As a pet caregiver, my experience has been both challenging and incredibly rewarding. I have had the pleasure of working with a variety of pets, including cats and dogs and even rabbits. Each pet has its own unique personality and needs, and I make sure to tailor my care to suit each individual animal. From feeding and grooming to providing exercise and playtime, I take pride in providing the highest level of care to ensure that the pets are healthy and happy. One of the most rewarding aspects of my pet care experience is seeing the joy on the pets' faces and the bond that we form over time. I truly believe that pets bring so much love and happiness into our lives, and it is an honor to be able to give back to them through my work. I make sure to follow the pet owner's instructions carefully, so that the pets receive the same level of care and attention they are accustomed to. I love spending time with the pets, playing and cuddling with them, and making sure they feel loved and secure. Seeing the pets happy and healthy when their owners return home is the best reward for a job well done. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I’m already very organized and used to working around animal care schedules. I’m able to provide consistent morning, evening, and check-in visits, and I’m flexible with timing when needed. I plan my week in advance so I can reliably accommodate bookings while still giving each pet my full attention. Since caring for animals is already part of my everyday life, I’m comfortable balancing multiple visits and making sure each pet gets the time, care, and consistency they need. n clients’ homes, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all feeding instructions, stick to their usual schedules, and make sure they always have fresh water, clean litter boxes (for cats), and a tidy environment. I also spend time with them based on their personality—whether that’s playtime, enrichment, or just calm companionship so they feel safe and not alone. I pay close attention to behavior and overall well-being during each visit, and I make sure the home is respected and left just as I found it. My goal is always to reduce stress for both the pet and the owner by providing consistent, attentive care in their familiar environment.

About: I have taken care of so many different dogs and cats and other pets since I was 10 years old. I have watched for friends and family and really enjoy spending time with pets. I work on reduced time at amazon so I work on Sundays, Monday and Tuesdays and then on thursdays and fridays I work at a dog boarding facility. I take care of pets in the clients home just because my dogs don't get along with other pets. But I give the pets 24 hour love and attention. I love taking dogs on walks and playing fetch with them. I also love when the dogs sleep with me at night. I can also take care of pets that have medications too.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and grew up caring for them daily. I’ve raised a puppy and currently have a well-trained dog of my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies to calm seniors. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m currently working part-time but am available most days during the week and can be flexible with scheduling as needed for pet care and walks. I prioritize safety and trust in every visit. I follow owner instructions closely, keep dogs on-leash during walks, avoid unsafe situations, and ensure pets are never left unattended. In a client’s home, I respect their space, maintain cleanliness, and make sure pets are comfortable, secure, and cared for the entire time.
About: I provide pet sitting in my home for puppies and small dogs (under 20 lbs). I also provide drop in services to your home and dog walking. My son and I have have been dog walking and sitting for others in the Riverbend area for the past 10 years. I LOVE traveling so I know how important (and difficult) it is to find a dog sitter you can trust and rely on while you're gone. I love all dogs and enjoy meeting new clients whether I am dropping in for visits or walks or boarding in my home. Please reach out with any questions. I am a mother of two adult children and work a hybrid schedule. I have lots of free time and have been dog walking and sitting for over 10 years with my son. We started dog walking and sitting together when he was 12 and he will be starting college soon and I want to continue our side business on my own. We have 2 acres on a cul-de-sac in Godfrey and enjoy talking walks. We have a large home that is safe and dog friendly. I can also do drop-ins while you are away.

I am available Monday-Friday and on the weekends! I work from home so my schedule is very flexible; I have client appointments every so often but am available most of the time. I have a fenced in yard and love to stay active so I'm happy to go on plenty of walks with your pup(s)! I am attentive and genuinely love playing with dogs as well as giving them the attention they need to be happy.
About: I was dog sitting without getting paid so I enjoy it, animals usually respond well to me, and I don’t mind spending my time with our furry friends I’m working part time at a grocery store and I’m off Tuesday and Thursday and needed a second job to save up, might as well a job I enjoy I’ll give them lots of pets, play with them, if your pet has a schedule for things I’ll do it on time, always being gentle with them
About: Hey. My name is Ali, I train dogs and this is a cool way to do what I love! I treat my dogs as if they were mine children & would do the same for anyone’s pet in my care. Making sure they’re comfortable and safe is my top priority. The way pet care fits into my day is regular because I’m taking care of my dogs and others literally all day so it’s a normal routine. My home and yard is dog friendly I’ve been training dogs for 15 years so I have the hang of keeping pets clean an safe.
About: I'm a retired veteran, finally able to do what I truly love which is caring for pets and being around my furry fourlegged friends . I am retired and more than willing and a able to take care of your pet/ pets on any days or time you may need. I will always make sure that your pet is secured on its lead, and make sure their surroundings are clear of any kind of danger.

“I was a little worried when I dropped cloudy off. This was the first time he ever went to someone besides family, but Ms. Leah made me feel so comfortable and Cloudy had so much fun over there. I appreciate her and her time and all she did to make this a great experience. I recommend her a 100 out of a 100 thank you so much,”


“Adela was awesome! She took great care of my dog Ellie for a few days. She was extremely welcoming and answered any questions I had prior to Ellie’s stay.Her communication skills were on point as well. She put my mind at ease each day by sending updates and lots of pictures :) I think it’s safe to say that my dog really enjoyed her stay. We will def book again with her in the future.”

“My puppy Onyx had a blast I was a little fearful because I just got him and he’s so small. He stayed overnight and when I dropped him off he was a little timid. By the time I returned the next morning he was running around with her lab like they were old friends. I would definitely recommend Shannon for your furry kids.”

“Our pup did great at Mandi’s! I didn’t have to worry at all because she sent pictures of his day and an update of what he did. She was so sweet to send him home with a personalized bandana and a jar of homemade treats! Definitely recommend!”

“Excellent pet sitter! She boarded our puppy for two nights and took great care of her. Our puppy came home happy, healthy, and well-loved. Great communication and a caring environment. Highly recommend!”

“Thank you Sarah for taking care of our Pepper! She had plenty of room for herself, and plenty of room to play with the other pups! She seemed to enjoy herself from the pictures I received while staying with Sarah! I will definitely use her the next time we need a pup sitter!”

“Laura is awesome! Very kind clearly loves dogs and sent me videos and photos every day. My dog came back super happy and tired from a good day running around her yard.”

“Tami was absolutely fantastic! It was our first time using Rover and she made us feel so comfortable leaving our dogs with her all weekend. She updated us with photos and loved our dogs like they were her own! We will definitely be going back to her!”

“Uno was in great hands! All the updates with pictures and videos were comforting to know he was okay while we were out of town. No issues and he even met a new friend :) Thanks again!”

“Jamie and Aaron were amazing!! Max had the best time and I think he was sad to leave. They provided pictures and video while he was there. Will definitely use them in future!!”

“Cait did a great job! She stayed in touch and went above and beyond to make my dog, who struggles being away, completely comfortable in a way other sitters haven't been able to. We will definitely be using her services again!”

“Robert is an awesome dog boarder/dog watcher. He provided us with good updates and all the other things a good dog host does, but what sets him apart is is way with dogs. Our dog is usually defensive towards unknown guys, but with Robert, she was instantly at ease. I would 100% recommend Robert to anyone with a dog that is anxious or uncertain of others. He is a gem as a sitter/boarder in Rover! Thank you Robert!”

“Linda was conscientious, enthusiastic, and so loving with our dog. It is nice to know your dog is not only being taken care of but also being cared for and enjoyed! We will be booking her again!”
“Cyndy and her family were wonderful hosts for our dog, Mando! They made time to do a meet and greet and asked lots of great questions. She was so great at sending updates and I could tell they were taking very good care of Mando. Will definitely use them again!”

“Rachael and Joe were great. I had to change my pick up time last minute and they had no problem with it. They sent plenty of videos and pictures over the weekend showing oreo had a great time. I would definitely use them again.”

“Copper had a wonderful stay over the holiday weekend! She was incredibly responsive and kept us updated with messages and lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious Copper was well cared for and having a great time. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter!”


“Stacie took great care of our dog while we were away! She was easy to communicate with and sent daily updates and pictures that helped ease my dog mama worry. Thank you so much, Stacie!”
