Personalized care for your dog or cat - Batavia
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Batavia
“I was very happy with how things went. Loved that they were around other dogs and could roam the home freely and openly. My 2 dogs are also attached to each other and were able to be with each other throughout. They received their needed meds on time....one being insulin injection 2xs daily...and overall did well as I got video updates on their progress throughout the wk. I will definitely use Jessica and her husband again!”
“We boarded our 2 little guys with Rosarin for several nights and could tell they were very well cared for. We got updates via the app on their days felt relieved they were in excellent care. Would highly recommend!”
“Above and beyond! Max had such a great time being with Jackie and her family. We appreciated receiving updates and photos. Max was taken care of as if he were part of their family and Jackie explained how things would be handled with routines, schedules, and her procedures for leaving the house. We will definitely be returning. (We, as parents, were free to relax and enjoy our trip without worry because of this. We are very grateful.)”
“Eric is a great pet sitter. As soon as I met him and saw his house and yard, I just felt so calm. I knew he would take good care of my dog. She did have a bad first night but Eric took care of it with aplomb and empathy. I highly recommend Eric.”
“Linda and George took amazing care of my pup. They sent update photos everyday and even took my pup out and about, which he loved every second of it! I would 1000% recommend them for any type of dog sitting and I know my pup can’t wait for the next trip back!”
“Pallvi and her family are fantastic! This is our second time leaving our two dogs with them and the experience continues to be great. If you or someone you know is looking for a family to look after your furry friends, my wife and I cannot recommend Pallvi and her family enough.”
“Kristine and her daughter did a wonderful job taking care of our golden retriever. He seemed very happy and content when we picked him up. He takes meds for seizure control and they were able to administer this with no issues. Plus- when I picked him up they had brushed him and had him looking so handsome !”
“Selena did an amazing job and made the whole experience feel effortless. My pup had the best time ever and even better was Selena was incredible about updating me with pictures and videos throughout it all. Selena and her pups were great in welcoming my boy into their home, I could tell my dog was bummed when his stay ended. I would definitely rebook and encourage anyone looking for someone they can trust to take of their pets to look no further”
“Danielle was amazing with our dog. Provided updates. Our dog has anxiety and doesn't do well in caged boardings. Danielle was very patient and took great care of her when we were away. 100% recommend and we'll use her again.”
“Keith was great! Very organized and respectful of trying keep our dog comfortable and on her routine. He frequently updated us with videos and was great about keeping her active with playtime and walks. All in all a great experience and I’ll be looking to use Keith again in the future.”
“Morgan always takes such good care of Navy! She always provides lots of pictures and timely updates that make us feel comfortable leaving her with Morgan and Ross anytime! I know Navy always has such a good time at their house, she doesn’t want to come home! 😉”
“This was our first time leaving our dog with Robynn and we couldn’t say enough positive things about her and her whole operation. She offered a meet and greet ahead of time so we could see her yard and home set up, and to make sure our dog would be happy. It is clear Robynn cares deeply about taking good care of her “pack” while at the same time diligently sending us photo and video updates throughout the visit. My dog got a little sick to her stomach one morning (nothing major, sometimes it happens, just a little bile) and Robynn was sure to inform us right away, document things in case we wanted her to see a vet, and also informed us that our dog was eating right away and playing happily. Upon pick up, our dog was clearly happy and well cared for. She has been snoozing deeply ever since coming home. We will not hesitate to use Robynn again in the future!”
“Great hosts and couple! They took Dexter in on such short notice with welcoming Arms. Definitely going to reach out to them in the future when we’re out of town. Thank you so much!”

“This was our first rover experience- our two dogs stayed with Maria and her family for about 4 days.Maria was happy to do a meet and greet before hand a couple months prior. The day we were dropping the dogs off my female who hasn’t been spayed yet started her menstrual cycle, I was so worried we were going to have to cancel our flights because I totally wouldn’t blame Maria if they didn’t want to keep her while she was wearing a diaper. But Maria was happy to still take both pups for the weekend and I am so thankful. My lab is a high energy gal and did great. We got pictures and updates multiple times a day of their walks and playing in the back yard. They seem happy and content after their stay with Maria and I cannot recommend her more. We have another stay booked with her already. So thankful to find someone to leave my pups with who we trust and can feel at ease leaving them with.”
“Maria did a great job but what i appreciated was administering my guy's medicine and most of all staying up late to hand off my dog when my flight was badly delayed. Thanks again Maria”
“We just want to say thank you to Molly she was really a great pick for our Australian Shepard named auggie he has separation anxiety really bad and Molly did all that she could to make him feel at home we are very thankful we found her to make our vacation a lot enjoyable knowing auggie was in good hands thanks Molly”
“My dog sitter Fanny was wonderful! She was very communicative throughout the stay, which gave me peace of mind, and I could tell my puppy was in great hands. I would absolutely use her again”
“Another wonderful stay with Jackie and her family! Our dog Ivy is treated like one of their own dogs and we appreciate that! We also love getting videos and pictures daily!”
“We are so happy with the care and attention that Valerie provided. We received regular updates and videos, and I could tell from her pictures that our dog was at ease and well cared for. Our dog is fifteen so we always worry about leaving her with a kennel where she will be crated most of the day. With Valerie, she was free to roam, got plenty of outside breaks, and got all the good food she was used to. Thank you for taking care of our girl!”

“Gatsby and Charlotte were well taken care of by Jackie in a timely manor. My cats responded to Jackie’s attention and I appreciated the many pictures sent each day. I already plan to have Jackie care for my cats later this month. I definitely recommend Jackie to care for your pets.”
“Cristal is wonderful with our cats and having her drop by while we’re away gives us good peace of mind just knowing that we don’t have to worry. She is very caring, kind and sweet towards the cats and always sends pictures of them which gives us extra reassurance that they are okay.”
“Jessica took perfect care of my cat Bruce. She sent so many great pictures and notes that assured me he was doing good while I was away. If Jessica watches your pet, you should have peace of mind they are in good hands.”
“Mary was wonderful with both our cats. I was a little apprehensive as one of our cats has to have medicine transdermally and runs from us. Mary was able to give it to her on both days. Thank you.”
About: With extensive pet care experience, I specialize in tailored attention for all ages. I'm adept at administering daily medications, providing senior care, and nurturing kittens or puppies, among other skills and services in pet care.
“Lori was able to help on very short notice. She had excellent communication and I felt completely secure having her take care of my two kitties. I would definitely have her come over again!”
“Kristine does a terrific job. She asks about your pet and any special needs. She is reliable in showing up on time, respecting your home, and caring for your pet, food, water, play. Highly recommended.”
“Ollie loved Kate immediately upon her first visit. Callie stayed under the bed but when I’d check in the cats via camera it was clear both were more relaxed. Kate was consistent, checked on Callie under the bed and gave Ollie all the love he would let her. We came home & Ollie did not do his usual stomp to every floor of the house screaming at us. Nothing in the house was messed up, nothing broken, all as it was left including happy cats. I’ll definitely be using Kate again.”
“Thank you grace for taking good care of our cats. We appreciate your reliability and making sure our care instructions were followed. They were safe and happy when we got home.”
“I can’t enough AMAZING things about Megan! She has been a God-sent for our new baby Onix and she cares for him so much! She is careful with what he encounters outside and is helpful keeping consistency with us on his command words we are training him with.”
“Maureen stopped in to feed and give my cat some company while my family and I were on vacation. She was wonderful and sent great pics and updates! Highly recommend booking with her!”
“Melanie was excellent! She was reliable and kept me up to date on when she was planning to arrive and after she completed her visit. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Chrissy took care of our 2 kitties over Thanksgiving and was absolutely wonderful. Great communication and took great care to ensure our kitties had plenty of stimulation and attention! Will hope to hire her again!”
About: I strive to cater to each pet's specific needs while providing a reliable service. Over the years, I have cared for dogs of all sizes, reptiles, rabbits, and cats. I've had success with training dogs not to pull when being walked, but I am currently not an accredited trainer. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I am normally available on weekdays in the morning and afternoon. I am open to offering my services outside of those hours on a case by case basis, pending availability. I am happy to go over any guidelines regarding pet care, house/yard access, and pet activities during a meet a greet prior to the first visit. I'm a big believer of talking to pets, walking them as much as needed, playing with them, and challenging them mentally. When possible I prefer to walk dogs in a park or on a nature path instead of in a concrete jungle.
“Kassandra was wonderful with our cats. We took a near 3-week trip and she came over each day to make sure our girls were cared for. She is a great communicator and asked questions about each cat making sure there were no concerns. Even our skittish girl who doesn’t like anyone eventually came around. She also vacuumed before we came home which wasn’t necessary but very much appreciated. We will be using Kassandra again when we head out of town. I was nervous about leaving them for such a long time but knowing they were well cared for put me at ease. The daily pictures Kassandra made sure to send with comments each day definitely helped as well. Five stars across the board. Thank you so much!”
About: After growing up with pet dogs throughout my life, I became the go-to pet sitter for our neighbors/friends/family members when they headed out of town. I currently have my own gentleman giant and volunteer/foster for his rescue! There's almost nothing I haven't seen when it comes to dogs quirky behaviors, but try me! Mi casa es sus casa! I am just starting with the rover platform, so availability is open & I'm willing to discuss anything within reason. In my home pets are taken for frequent walks, and during nice weather we hang out on the patio. In other homes it would depend what you are comfortable with and what the pup is used to!
“Emma was amazing and took such great care of our cats while we were out of town! I’m SO happy i found her as we recently moved to the area. She was very friendly, communicative, and followed instructions. Emma gave us the confidence and reassurance knowing our boys were in best hands. We will book with Emma again!”
“Elyse is a cat whisperer! She is so thorough in her post-visit notes, I always know exactly how my kitty is doing while I’m away. She also takes model-quality photos of my cat — it’s so impressive! I will ALWAYS trust Elyse with my cat, I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Ashley has become the friend that Blueberry and Dunkin most look forward to seeing every week. Both somewhat skittish, the dogs usually take a little while to warm up to new people. They immediately took to Ashley, though, and enjoy their time with her. This is evident in the pictures Ashley takes during her visits. And, the photos are fantastic! We can tell she's a professional photographer! This has provided us, the parents of Blueberry and Dunkin, great peace of mind. We are confident the dogs are well cared for when we're at work and receiving the attention they need. Ashley is very easy to work with and flexible with scheduling. We're lucky to have found her. Blueberry and Dunkin's lives are so much better because Ashley is in them!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Batavia
“My pup is normally very shy and takes him time warming up, but he loved Rosarin right away! He took treats (which never happens), enjoyed a nice long walk with her, and spent some time hanging out with her dog. Rosarin is great with animals, and she shared lots of helpful insights and cute pics/videos. Fantastic sitter, will use her again in a heartbeat!”
“Jackie was phenomenal. I reached out pretty last minute with a request that wasn’t exactly simple—she had to pick Ghost up from his training facility (not from me) and coordinate all of that seamlessly. On top of that, she even helped me sort out a small payment detail on Rover to make sure everything reflected correctly, which she absolutely didn’t have to do. She was super responsive, easy to work with, and just handled everything without friction. And the best part—Ghost lit up the second he saw her again after a few months, which tells you everything you need to know. Somehow she manages all of this while caring for multiple dogs at once and raising a young family, which honestly makes it even more impressive. Highly recommend giving Jackie a shot.”
About: Hello! I can't wait to meet you and your furry friend! I have been caring for animals my whole life, including my own pets and also dogs I foster for a local rescue. I would love to care for your furry family member as well. As a Type-A personality and a mother of 3 humans and 3 dogs, I am very organized, reliable, detail-oriented, caring, and trustworthy. I work from home part-time in the photography industry and would love to help you add to the adorable photos of your pet while they are in my care, if you would like! I have a Masters Degree in Higher Education and a Bachelors in Entrepreneurship, both at Illinois State University. I did my business plan on a doggy day care and when I was a kid I wanted to be a vet, so as you can see...caring for animals has been in my blood from a young age! Several of my animals have had special needs or are prone to injury, so I have LOTS of experience in that regard. My vet can vouch for the fact that I would make a great vet tech. Blood and other bodily fluids do not phase me and I am cool as a cucumber under pressure (I've dealt with two dogs with broken legs, two dog strokes, cancer, many a laceration, a diabetic cat, and a dog with no eyes.) I also have fostered several puppies and love their puppy breath! Happy to help care for the youngest of your pets as well. I work from home part-time during typical business hours and cart my kids to and from their activities. My spare time is spent caring for your furry friends! Whether I am coming into your home or your pets are coming into mine, your pets and property will be treated with the utmost care and consideration. I will provide the excellent service I expect for pet sitters for my own family dogs and nothing less. Safety and security are also top of mind and, with my high attention to detail, nothing will be missed. Pets in my home will be treated like family. We have 2 retired racing greyhounds who are loving, calm, and kind, as well as a foster-fail super mutt who loves to play and keep our house safe from chipmunks and mail carriers. I have three kids (12, 10, and 7) who all have extensive experience with dogs and who will help me respectfully love on your pet while you are away. We have a LARGE fenced in yard with lots of little critters to sniff after and plenty of room to run. We live in a pet-friendly cul-du-sac with several dogs and chickens next door.
“Stephanie is absolutely wonderful, and I felt completely safe leaving my precious pup with her for the weekend! We are so grateful to have found such a great Rover fit with her! Thank you Stephanie :)”

“Maria has been a LIFE SAVER for me. I work full time in Chicago and I needed someone who was able to take my dog M-F but I didn't want to bring my dog to an impersonal day care. That's when I found Maria. I really love that Oliver (my dog) is safe in Maria's home and also able to go to the dog park everyday. When I pick him up he is a very happy and tired dog! I could not have asked for a better situation and we consider Maria part of the family. She treats my dog as if he was her own and for that I am so thankful.”
“Robynn did an amazing job with our Coco. She kept us updated the whole day. You can see how much she loves and cares for dogs. We know Coco Had a great time. He was so happy to see us when we picked him up. Once we got home he went straight to bed he was so tired. Thank You Robynn”
About: Hi! We’re excited to have your dog in our home! We’re a responsible and caring couple who love dogs and enjoy providing loving care. We have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes—from puppies to senior dogs who need a gentler pace, and from small breeds to large dogs. With two of us, your dog gets extra attention, supervision, and affection. We’re happy to accommodate routines, walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and plenty of cuddles. We prioritize safety, consistency, and making sure your dog feels comfortable and at home while you’re away. We treat every dog like our own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup is in great hands. We are always busy with our own two dogs and cat, and someone is always home for food and bathroom breaks. We love having dogs hangout with us or let them do their own thing. Our yard is now fully fenced too so we can spend as much or little time outside as they prefer We have two dogs of our own who love to enjoy the big yard and taking up space on the couch- your doggo will be welcome to do the same. Your dog will not be bored with us!
“So incredible! She is very attentive and responsive! We got video and photo updates throughout the day which made me know our dogs were well taken care of! Our dogs came home happy and tired! There is honestly nothing better than that. Cannot recommend Vanessa enough!!”
About: Your dog isn’t just a guest - they’re part of the family. I work from home full time which means your pup will rarely be left alone. They’ll have constant supervision, companionship, and plenty of love throughout the day. I have a secured fenced yard for safe outdoor play and a dog-friendly pool that’s available for supervised swim time (if your pup enjoys water). I'm a dedicated dog lover who works from home, which means your furry friend will never be left alone. Whether it's a day of play or an overnight stay, your dog's happiness and safety are my top priorities. My home is a haven for dogs, featuring a spacious fenced yard where they can run and play freely. I also have a dog-friendly pool that's perfect for a supervised splash or a cool dip on a hot day
About: First things first: I only accept 1 canine guest at a time. I have a fun-loving 3 yr old Black Labrador who is as excited for new guests as I am. I'm home 24/7 and have a large enclosed back yard for playtime. Come by anytime for a visit and check out the environs if you're thinking of boarding. I work from home 24/7. Weekdays/weekends start at 6:00 AM and the day wraps up from 9:00-10:00 PM. I have more than enough availability to give your dog all the attention it needs. I have a large, enclosed back yard that's big enough for a good run, and a very friendly 3 yr old black labrador who loves guests. We often go to the Batavia Dog Park on Main for summer swims in the spring-fed pond if that's something you're interested in. If you haven't ascertained this by now, I only accept 1 canine guest at a time, so rest assured your pup will have plenty of attention and minimal risk of negative interactions that could result from an unrestricted boarding environment. I keep my house very clean; if you suspect your pup is having any issues with fleas please bring that to my attention.
About: I Take a Personalized Approach and Maintain Constant Communication I don’t treat all pets the same. I carefully assess the behavior of each animal, understanding that an adult dog has different needs than an energetic puppy or a shy cat. Before accepting any booking, I conduct a detailed consultation to learn about your pet’s routine, fears, favorite activities, and specific medical needs. In addition, I provide regular updates, photos, and videos so you always know how your pet is doing. I don’t just say, “They’re doing fine.” I’ll tell you how well they ate, how much they played, and how their walk went, giving you complete peace of mind while you’re away. My time management and the way I integrate pet care into my daily routine are designed to ensure consistency and individualized attention, as your pet’s routine is essential to their well-being. In summary, my schedule is built around reliability, consistency, and controlled flexibility, ensuring that your pet’s care fits seamlessly into my day without ever feeling rushed or stressful. ● Home-Like Environment, No Crates: My home is fully pet-proofed and designed to make pets feel like they’re in a second home. Pets live alongside me and are never confined to a crate unless specifically requested by the owner. ● 24/7 Supervision: Pets staying in my home receive constant supervision. I only leave for very short, planned periods, and only when the pet is comfortable, safe, and secure. ● Small Group Care: I accept only a limited number of pets at a time to ensure each one receives individualized attention and that the environment remains calm, safe, and manageable. ● Secure Exercise Area: My home features a securely fenced yard where pets can enjoy supervised playtime and socialization (with the owner's approval and if the pet enjoys interacting with others). In summary, I choose the care option that best meets your pet’s emotional and physical needs—whether that means the comfort of staying in their own home or the constant supervision and companionship offered in mine.
“Our girl Nova had a wonderful time with Maria. She is caring, loving, professional and incredibly patient. This was our first experience leaving our baby girl, and it was great. Maria kept us updated throughout the day, making us feel very comfortable that Nova was well taken care of.”

“Jackie took the best care of our dog while we were gone for 4 days. She kept us updated and sent lots of great pictures, plus spent so much time playing with our dog since it was too cold to be outside. She is awesome!”
“Grace was amazing handling my German Shepard, My dog is sweet but can be intimidating. He is strong and will bark at other dogs on walks so I always worry a little if people will be comfortable walking him. Grace was awesome with him and put me at ease. I’m so glad I found her to help me out and would use her again!”
“Super easy to work with and I feel 100% comfortable leaving my dog in Kate’s care. She lets me know when she has walked and sends a picture. She is a Mom herself and understands that we can worry about our fur babies.”
“Janae was excellent with both of our dogs . Janae was especially excellent with our rescue girl. Our dog Nola is shy and can be anxious meeting new people. Janae worked with Nola and won her over and now they are friends. Janae sent several pictures of our dogs during her visit with our dogs. I have already booked Janae again.”
“This was our first dog walker experience for our 5 month puppy and she did such a wonderful job! As new dog parents she helped us feel reassured as we sent multiple messages regarding his day and offered to do a "meet and greet" with him so that he felt familiar and comfortable with her walking him. We appreciated the attention and care she had for him!”
About: My pet sitting experience dates back to when I was 10 years old. I would take care of neighbors, friends, and family pets. Whether they were dogs or cats, big or small, I’ve done it all! Growing up I’ve had cats, but since last year I’ve been the proud fur mom to a sweet golden retriever. Prior to getting him, I worked for Wag! and would do dog walks and drop-in visits. I’m a full time nurse working 4 days a week, but I have one day off during the week to help and I’m free most weekends! If booking for boarding, my husband works from home so someone is always home with your pet. In my home, I have the sweetest Golden Retriever who likes to befriend every dog (and human!). My yard is fully fenced, and I have a large crate available as needed.
“Thanks for your help Adam! I really appreciate it! Yes you’ll be hearing from us again. 😊 🐾 They were happy to see me but I could tell they were “pooped” out from the walk. Thanks again!”
“This was our first time working with Josh and Susan to help with our dog. Unbelievably, they took us on at the last minute when we were desperate for help! Their communication was timely and clear and kind. We had a quick meet and greet and I felt comfortable with them right away…as did Lula! These two obviously love animals and value being of service to them and their peoples! Thank you both for being there for us!”

About: I’ve spent years caring for pets of friends, neighbors, and family. Outside of just my own dogs, I love dogs of all ages, temperaments, and sizes. I’m comfortable with active walks, medication routines, and adapting to each pet’s unique personality and play-style. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, or a total cuddle-bug, we will both enjoy our time together. I’m detail‑oriented, patient, and committed to making every pet feel safe and genuinely loved while you’re away. I'm currently searching for a career position, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pups! I’m home frequently and can provide consistent attention throughout the day. I care about your dogs' healthy routines, as I know they will help mine. I offer a flexible schedule, weekend availability, and reliable communication so you always know how your pet is doing. I hope you like update photos! In my home, each dog receives lots of attention. I treat every pet like they're my own, so your pet’s routine becomes my routine. I follow feeding schedules, walking habits, and comfort preferences exactly as you describe. I will send regular updates with photos and notes so you feel connected and reassured.
About: I absolutely love animals and have raised kittens, puppies, chickens and rats. I make it a point to give animals the best care possible and enjoy taking time to walk or play with pups. I am a mum of two kiddos who works from home. I have a great deal of flexibility in my schedule and love to be outside. I approach pets carefully and allow them to check me out before giving them a scritch. I love chatting along with pups on walks and playing tug o war or fetch. I give (approved)treats and reward animals for good behavior.
About: I've taken care of dogs of many breeds ever since I was a little girl. I took care of feeding, exercising, and bathing our dogs for my family. I also work as a kennel tech at autumn green hospital where I take care of pets daily including bathing, feeding , playing with and giving medication. I currently work as a kennel tech, and my schedule is kind of all over the place. However, I can bring your pet to work with me after they are reviewed by my boss to make sure they pass their rabies and fecal tests. I’m available Saturday mornings until 1 PM and am free all day on Sundays! I will update this note on a month-to-month basis depending on my schedule. If I were in your home, I would let your pet warm up to me first. Then, I would make sure they have clean water and food, follow any instructions you have for me, and give them lots of cuddles and love to keep them happy.
“Kassandra is marvelous! She's friendly, kind, and very reliable. My dogs adore her! She's been a great help while I've been recovering from surgery; her dog walking has made Birdie and Gracie so much happier and calmer. I would use her services again in a minute!”
About: Hi! I’m Megan, a trail-loving mom and lifelong animal lover who finds any excuse to be outside, especially when the leaves start changing and the crisp fall air rolls in. I’ve grown up with pets, from cuddly cats to an energetic Siberian Husky who taught me all about patience, play, and the importance of a good walk! These days, I volunteer at local animal shelters and love providing thoughtful, attentive care to both dogs and cats. I know fall adventures look different for every pet, so I’m happy to adjust to their needs. Whether that means a leisurely walk through the colorful leaves, some extra playtime in the backyard, enrichment time indoors where it's cozy and comfortable, or simply some companionship while you're away, your pet’s safety and happiness always come first. Whether it’s a drop-in visit, a crisp fall walk, or some quality one-on-one attention, I treat every pet like family. I believe in clear communication, dependable care, and making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. My goal is to give them a fun, enriching experience while helping you enjoy peace of mind. I'm looking forward to making this fall full of happy walks, colorful adventures, wagging tails, and plenty of cozy memories! I’m typically available after 2:00 PM on weekdays, but there is flexibility. If you're looking for afternoon or early evening care, I’d love to help! I provide calm, loving care in your pet’s own space, keeping their routine and comfort top priority. Whether it's playtime, feedings, walks, or just quiet company, I make sure your pet feels safe, seen, and well-loved while you're away. 🧽 I also understand that accidents can happen, simple potty cleanups during a visit are always included. For larger messes that require extra time, I offer optional cleanup services: $10 Basic Cleanup: Removing soiled bedding, wiping up big pieces or puddles, and getting your pet set up with fresh bedding. $25 Deep Clean: More involved cleaning when there’s a substantial mess that needs extra time and care. These options help me keep your pet clean and comfortable while also staying on schedule for all my visits.
About: I have had pets all my life and I absolutely love caring for them, playing with them, all of it. I've had lots of experience with cats and dogs of all sizes and activity levels. (i grew up with 2 pugs and have my own cat as well as a german puppy and 2-year-old rescue mutt at home) I am punctual and a very caring and patient person. I'd love to spend my life working with animals and I feel like this could be a good start for me ! my availability is super flexible so if need be we can figure out a schedule that works for both of us and fits well into our busy lives ! I look forward to meeting you and your wonderful pets ! As of right now, I am currently unemployed and not in school or training either so I have wide open availability to work with you ! I'm unfortunately not able to care for pets in my own home but I am willing to make any accommodations for your pet(s), big or small as I have worked with a variety of animals with a variety of needs/temperaments.

“I was very happy with how things went. Loved that they were around other dogs and could roam the home freely and openly. My 2 dogs are also attached to each other and were able to be with each other throughout. They received their needed meds on time....one being insulin injection 2xs daily...and overall did well as I got video updates on their progress throughout the wk. I will definitely use Jessica and her husband again!”
“Above and beyond! Max had such a great time being with Jackie and her family. We appreciated receiving updates and photos. Max was taken care of as if he were part of their family and Jackie explained how things would be handled with routines, schedules, and her procedures for leaving the house. We will definitely be returning. (We, as parents, were free to relax and enjoy our trip without worry because of this. We are very grateful.)”
“Linda and George took amazing care of my pup. They sent update photos everyday and even took my pup out and about, which he loved every second of it! I would 1000% recommend them for any type of dog sitting and I know my pup can’t wait for the next trip back!”
“Kristine and her daughter did a wonderful job taking care of our golden retriever. He seemed very happy and content when we picked him up. He takes meds for seizure control and they were able to administer this with no issues. Plus- when I picked him up they had brushed him and had him looking so handsome !”
“Selena did an amazing job and made the whole experience feel effortless. My pup had the best time ever and even better was Selena was incredible about updating me with pictures and videos throughout it all. Selena and her pups were great in welcoming my boy into their home, I could tell my dog was bummed when his stay ended. I would definitely rebook and encourage anyone looking for someone they can trust to take of their pets to look no further”
“Morgan always takes such good care of Navy! She always provides lots of pictures and timely updates that make us feel comfortable leaving her with Morgan and Ross anytime! I know Navy always has such a good time at their house, she doesn’t want to come home! 😉”
“Great hosts and couple! They took Dexter in on such short notice with welcoming Arms. Definitely going to reach out to them in the future when we’re out of town. Thank you so much!”

“This was our first rover experience- our two dogs stayed with Maria and her family for about 4 days.Maria was happy to do a meet and greet before hand a couple months prior. The day we were dropping the dogs off my female who hasn’t been spayed yet started her menstrual cycle, I was so worried we were going to have to cancel our flights because I totally wouldn’t blame Maria if they didn’t want to keep her while she was wearing a diaper. But Maria was happy to still take both pups for the weekend and I am so thankful. My lab is a high energy gal and did great. We got pictures and updates multiple times a day of their walks and playing in the back yard. They seem happy and content after their stay with Maria and I cannot recommend her more. We have another stay booked with her already. So thankful to find someone to leave my pups with who we trust and can feel at ease leaving them with.”
“Maria did a great job but what i appreciated was administering my guy's medicine and most of all staying up late to hand off my dog when my flight was badly delayed. Thanks again Maria”
“We just want to say thank you to Molly she was really a great pick for our Australian Shepard named auggie he has separation anxiety really bad and Molly did all that she could to make him feel at home we are very thankful we found her to make our vacation a lot enjoyable knowing auggie was in good hands thanks Molly”
“We are so happy with the care and attention that Valerie provided. We received regular updates and videos, and I could tell from her pictures that our dog was at ease and well cared for. Our dog is fifteen so we always worry about leaving her with a kennel where she will be crated most of the day. With Valerie, she was free to roam, got plenty of outside breaks, and got all the good food she was used to. Thank you for taking care of our girl!”
“Leslie did a great job with my Marley. Marley is a very anxious dog and he had a blast with Leslie. I will leave for my work trip in a couple weeks knowing that he is in good hands and being well cared for! 🤍”
“This was the first time we have used a sitter for our pup outside of family or close friends, and Ashley and her family were simply wonderful. She provided daily updates, fun photos and videos, and gave me comfort that our pup was happy and well cared for. I would highly recommend Ashley, and we will be return visitors!”
“Gavin was very patient , kind and understanding of my crazy schedule for this weekend and also my first time pet parent anxiety, and my dog loved being in his carelol I would gladly book with him again!”
“Justine was extremely generous with her time and provided a safe and loving environment for our senior dog who is 15 years old and blind. I did not want our dog to be in a setting with too many other dogs which would make him nervous and on top of that he takes medications. This was a family style setting and Justine and her family treated my dog like family. That’s the best quality experience you could ask for.”
“Lizzie and her husband were great with our 80lb hyper puppy. They took the time to let us come over prior, to introduce our puppy to their dogs. Our dog had a great time running around their yard and playing with their dogs. They sent videos and picture updates to let us know how he did. We definitely recommend their services!”
“Mera and her family took such great care of my dog! He looked so happy and cared for in every photo and video. He is a good judge of character and when I dropped him off after the initial meet and greet, he practically dragged me to the door because he couldn't wait to see Mera and her boys.”
“Peggy was great! Our dog Groot had a wonderful time. She responded quickly to our request and thankfully, was okay booking last minute. She kept us updated regularly on how he was doing to keep our minds as ease. We will definitely be using her services again!”
