“Sumer was perfect! This is my first time using Rover and I was very apprehensive leaving my baby with someone I did not know. From the very first message, I felt more and more comfortable. When the time came to drop Raven off, I saw how she reacted to Sumer and I was immediately at ease. I trust dogs’ reactions to people. Her spirit is so welcoming and I knew my baby was in good hands. I received multiple updates and pics throughout the stay. I love that she was allowed on furniture and able to be cuddles like she is at home. She looked happy in every pic and it made me feel so much better while I was away. 10/10! Raven will be back :-) Thank you!”
“Traci provided a wonderful experience for my pup! It was my first time leaving her since I adopted her and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the whole experience. Traci made my girl feel right at home and sent me updates and pictures that really eased any worries I may have had. I will definitely request Traci again in the future.”
“Charley is the best! Our dog had quite a bit of separation anxiety when we rescued her and Charley was there to support us through it all. We recently boarded our Willow for the first time and she loved it! We received frequent picture updates and were able to check in whenever we needed to. We highly recommend Charley to anyone looking for a dog sitter. She truly loves the dogs like her own.”
“Tanya was absolutely amazing with our dog Toby! From our first meet and greet, she was warm, professional, and clearly experienced with pets. While we were away, she sent daily updates and photos that showed Toby was relaxed, happy, and getting lots of love and attention. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in such capable hands. Tanya went above and beyond, and we’re so grateful. Highly recommend her to anyone on Rover!”
“Theresa is simply amazing. She came through for my fur baby at the last minute when we needed to leave town. She was kind, patient and answered all of my questions to help soothe any anxieties with leaving my fur baby in someone else’s care. She was on time for pickup and drop off. She sent pictures and responded to text and phone calls promptly. You can’t go wrong with Theresa!!”
“Mary is just the best! She absolutely loves dogs and goes out of her way to make you and your furry baby feel like they are at home! I feel like she’s part of the family and cannot recommend her enough! Thank you Mary!!”
“As always, Lauren did a wonderful job of watching our Paisley. She is so conscientious and stays in communication while we are gone. Highly recommend! Her daughter is a great help too!”
“Rebecca and her partner were great with Lucy! She sent timely updates and pictures, and asked any questions she had. She followed instructions and kept my girl company for the day!”
“I had Deanne and her husband take care of my two Great Pyrenees for the night as a trial run for a longer stay later this year. I rebooked shortly after I picked them up. Deanne sent pictures and updates multiple times, and made me feel extremely comfortable . My dogs loved staying with them, were very well taken care of, and came home happy! I will absolutely be booking Deanne and her family for any future stays that we’ll need! Highly recommend!”
“Kaitlyn was amazing! She updated daily and made sure our babies were so well taken care of. She went above and beyond and I’m so grateful we chose to book with her. I will absolutely be booking her for any future needs for our pups.”
“Brandi was very understanding & accommodating of our schedule. She provided great feedback during Winnie’s stay. She was professionally able to deal with all her needs, she even pulled a tick off her! Thanks Brandi”
“Julia was absolutely a dream! She took such incredible care of our Weimaraner, Mozzie. Great communication, great photos and she made sure he had his own vacation while we were away! 10/10 and will rebook again!”
“The best sitters on this app! Absolutely professional in the way of doing things and unbelievably lovely with the dog. I’ve left my pup with them twice and she refuses to leave their place when I pick her back up. Super friendly couple and very much involved in their care towards dogs. Thomas and Emily always accommodated my requests and were super helpful in giving my pups medication too. I would 100% recommend them, the best dog sitters ive come across so far!!!”
“Ashley took great care of our husky, Cleo. We got so many pictures and videos which was really appreciated! Ashley was very communicative throughout the stay. We would definitely board Cleo with her again and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for doggie daycare and boarding in the area!”
About: I’ve taken care of my sweet 70 lb pit bull for 4 years now in my home with a fully fenced backyard, downstairs dog play area, private room and crate for your dog, and eufy camera access to the private room. My dog has esophageal dysmotility so I understand medically complicated dogs. My home is ideal for a dog that is lower energy and enjoys calm and quiet environments. I work remote so I am home throughout the day other than the occasional doctor appointment. On average when I leave the home, it’s usually only about 2 hours and the max is about 4 hours. I also take my dog to a home groomer every other week so I can coordinate with you to take your dog to my groomer when my dog goes for grooming for an extra cost plus you paying the groomer separately. The most important thing is that your dog and my dog get along and/or are neutral. When I leave for brief periods your dog will be crated in their private room with the door closed and my dog will be loose but without access to your dog. Note: I DO NOT take dogs on walks. I believe it is too high risk for potential altercation with other dogs or your pet and I being separated. The alternative will be my backyard where they can play and explore and also I have a downstairs dog play area with a large dog bed and many toys! I work fully remote so your dog will be with me at all times (unless I have an appointment or errand to run) either in my office, their own private room with a crate, or in the living room. I typically wake up around 6 am and pet care happens whenever my dog needs so I can do the same for your dog in terms of potty breaks and feeding and play time. I am typically in bed by 8 pm but will get up if needed to take my dog out to the bathroom as well. Safety is my main priority. I require that our dogs get along/are neutral to one another to prevent any sort of altercation. If there ever is an altercation, you would be informed immediately and the dogs can easily be separated for the rest of the day/boarding booking. I have a very quiet and calm home and live in a quiet neighborhood as well. I take breaks during work to get on the couch and spend time with my dog and will do the same for yours! Your dog must be crate trained and will be put in a crate for any time I must leave the home (max 4 hours at a time). Your dog will also have to be either in their crate or in their private room with the door closed while I sleep. Them being able to be in their private room with the door closed while I sleep will be allowed on a case-by-case basis. Note: I DO NOT take dogs on walks. I believe it is too high of a safety risk for potential altercation with other dogs or your pet and I being separated. The alternative will be my backyard where they can play and explore and also I have a downstairs dog play area with a large dog bed and many toys!
“Elena and her family were great. From the start at drop off, I could tell our pup would be treated like family. She was really good about keeping me updated on how things were going on a frequent basis. She sent us some great pictures and a few brief summaries of how the day went. Two weeks is a long time to take someone else’s dog for any reason but I’m really happy it was Elena and her family. Will try to use her again if they’re willing.”
“I feel like we have found a diamond in the rough. Jacqueline, Kris and Bella are so kind and truly are dog lovers. We received updates with pictures during Piper's stay. Their fenced in yard was perfect for Piper to run and sniff. Cannot say enough positive remarks regarding the excellent care Piper received. We highly recommend Jacqueline's family for daycare or boarding, and will be boarding again in the future!”

“Amanda was an incredible help while I was away taking such great care of my cats! She went above and beyond, not only making sure they were well cared for but also leaving my home even cleaner than when she arrived. Her daily updates were so thoughtful and reassuring, giving me total peace of mind. Plus, she has such a great vibe—I feel like we’d get along so well in everyday life! Thank you so much, Amanda!”
“Kayla is my go-to when I need a cat sitter! She takes excellent care of my two cats and they love to see her. I appreciate her care and attention, and also love the update photos she takes!”
“They did a great job taking care of my cat, Erika, who was not very happy about us leaving for a few days. Brittany sent me a picture of Erika each day, even when she was being uncooperative and trying to hide. She was responsive to text messages and kept me updated. I definitely recommend Brittany and Branson!”
“Taylor was the best cat sitter we have ever had, she took very good care of Luna and made him feel comfortable with her and her cat and her husband because Luna doesn’t really like men but got along with him. Taylor is a great communicator, she gives you daily updates on how your fur baby is doing with pictures and everything. Needless to say we never had to worry for a second about Luna and we will most definitely have her watch Luna again.”
“Drew was very attentive with my fur babies!! She followed all instructions and was able to adjust when my dog ran to other dogs. She was able to remain calm and wrangle them back in the house. Her communication was superb and I never had to worry about getting ahold of her. 10/10 would recommend!”
About: Hi there! My name is Lauren. Our pets are an important part of our family but unfortunately they can’t tagalong with us everywhere we go. Have you found yourself passing up opportunities, turning down offers or just having guilt about leaving them cooped up for too many hours? As a former business owner and having two dogs I understand the struggle. I had endless guilt about not spending enough time with my pups. But, you are in luck because you needn't feel guilt anymore. I have a flexible schedule which allows for you to make last-minute trips, on a whim decisions or just simply having a worry free day away from home. I have grown up with cats and dogs all my life. My pups and I have all gone to training classes so, I have a solid understanding of canine behavior in order to keep everyone safe and sound. I work in the health and wellness industry. My position allows for me to create my own schedule which is conducive to caring for all your beloved ones needs. I am super outdoorsy! So, I am familiar with many of our local parks and walking paths. I am always up for a car ride and to go to the park. Please just let me what you feel comfortable with.
About: When I worked on a farm for a couple of years, I had many very sweet, loving barn cats to take care of. I now work in a veterinary hospital and help care for cats daily when I'm at work. I currently have one cat of my own - Tippy! I am especially interested in taking care of animal's minds as much as their bodies. I think mental enrichment is just as important as physical health. I strive to keep up to date knowledge and to always continue learning about physical and behavioral health!
“Victoria did an amazing job with Panini! I feel she really went above and beyond. I got photos throughout the visit which I really appreciated. Panini, my cat, was very well cared for and I definitely recommend booking with Victoria!”
“As usual, Autumn provided great care for our cat! I always love getting her detailed updates! She really gets to know our cat’s personality which is comforting. We will continue to have her care for our animals-she is the best!”
“Lindsey is awesome! She follows our directions with drop ins and always keeps us updated! She send us picture too! 😊 My pups love her and my cat that isn’t the biggest fan of strangers even loved her! Would recommend her over and over again!”
About: Growing up I lived in the country with cows, horses and chickens next door. We always had many cats and dogs because we had the space and they just knew we would take them in if they didn't have a home. I wish I had the space now to have more animals but since I dont, it would be an honor to take care of yours. My experience with animals would be having a cat that needed shots daily for diabetes, a blind dog, dog that had seizures, taking care of friends and family's pets. Some which needed daily medicine or had a lot of energy : ). I ppreciate the trust they have in me to take care of their fur family members. Each pet, like humans, have their own personality.

About: I have direct experience taking care of dogs and animals through helping neighbors and owning a dog myself. Ever since my adorable Labradoodle passed away, I've missed having a furry friend. I can't wait to get to meet so many new pets on a daily basis; I am very friendly to all animals and many dogs love me. I am comfortable with all size dogs and cats, in fact I don't have a preference for my next pet I own. I am a graduate from the University of Missouri with a degree in communications and I am a hardworking individual with a passion for working with animals. I can't wait to meet your pets soon :) I am recently accepted my first remote job, I’m still working full-time 8AM-5PM but I can be more flexible with my schedule, and yours. I am very patient and know the tricks to make dogs feel like they can trust me and I am a friend in their home. I will be quiet and gentle when entering the home as to not scare them or make them feel threatened. I can be flexible with your schedule as needed since I work a full-time remote job. I still need to be available 8AM-5PM but I can drop in or squeeze in a walk pretty easily. I am available on the weekends unless stated otherwise on my calendar. I don’t own any pets of my own. I am very meticulous and careful with pets I watch for others. Many people would say I am compulsively neat and organized so it comes in handy when handling other pet’s schedules or requirements.

“Charley and Anthony are amazing sitters for my pup Wrigley. I will not leave my baby with just anyone. Wrigley has so much fun when he goes over to their house for daycare. I will admit I was hesitant in the beginning because I have never left my pets with anyone. I can honestly say, I totally trust Charley and Anthony, and I absolutely have no issues leaving Wrigley with them ever. Charley sends pictures all the time showing me how much fun Wrigley is having every day he is there. I would definitely recommend using them as a sitter for your pets. Wrigley is very spoiled while he is there, and I believe that they treat him the same as I do at home. Again, I love my baby to death and I have no issues about sending him to daycare with Charley or Anthony ever. I was given their name by a friend who also uses them and highly recommended them. I am so glad I found someone I can trust. I am looking to use them for an extended stay while my husband and I go on a mini vacation at some point. I know I won’t have any worries while we’re gone because he will be in great hands and he will also be able to enjoy more playtime with his friend Princess… ❤️❤️🐶❤️❤️”

I work full-time online as a college professor so I am home with my dogs during the day. I have a doctorate in Teaching and Learning, MA in Educational Leadership, and a BA in English. I used to be a k-12 classroom teacher before teaching college online full-time. I am am passionate about animals. I have a large fenced yard. My neighborhood is quiet and pedestrian friendly. I love all dogs! I’m used to caring for dogs from 8 week old puppies to seniors. I have experience with insulin dependent pups and deaf dogs. I love chihuahuas to mastiffs. I promise your dog will get the very best love, attention, care, and endless fun! My dogs are used to me being home all day. I never leave the house for more than an hour or two, and that is typically on weekends or in the evening. My dogs are very secure and spoiled by my attention, and yours will be, too! My two sweet female dogs are both spayed and are very friendly to other dogs and people. Prior to moving to IL, I fostered dogs and watched other animals on Rover.
“Lauren was so good to our dog who is shy but super friendly. She made him feel at home and played his favorite game of fetch. He was tired when he came home and he slept the entire night. We will definitely use Lauren again. She even sent a little video of him to us.”
“Theresa took in our dog on short notice and provided overnight care when we had a bit of a family emergency out of town. She took several photos and provided updates as well. We will continue to trust our somewhat special needs dog with her. It seems clear that our dog enjoys staying there as well. Which brings us a lot of peace about trusting our dog with someone. Thank you, Theresa, for your love and care for our little member of our family!”
“Let me start off by saying that Ella was absolutely amazing!!! I mean from start to finish she is phenomenal, her energy is amazing and she took care of my dog so so well!! She communicated the entire time and sent pictures and my dog looked replaced and happy! My dog is usually anxious in the car but for some reason when I picked her up she was relaxed and calmed which ensured she was comfortable and is beginning to recognize that I will always come back got her. Ella you are truly an angel and I look forward to future visits”
About: I am a certified veterinary technician with an additional certification in massage and rehab therapy. I have been working in the animal care industry since 2012 and have worked with and trained dogs for a long as I can remember. I offer expert level care for medically complex cases and a fear free approach for anxious pets. I have experience working with anxious and aggressive dogs as well as competition trained dogs. Being crate trained is a must for overnight stays. I do have 1 large crate here but encourage you to bring your pet's crate from home if able. Self- employed with a flexible schedule, I have all day availability and can also do early morning and late evening drop ins. I only take 1 client at a time so that I can give your pet the care and attention they deserve. Because I only take one client at a time, I can offer a stress free stay for animal aggressive pets. I wash all toys and blankets and sanitize all the floors and dishes between every stay.
“Lenny had a great experience at doggy daycare. He’s a rescue and a little shy at first, but the Dan made him feel safe and comfortable right away. I really appreciate the caring environment and attention they give the dogs. 🐾”

“Jennifer is the best! I was nervous at first because I’m very selective about who I trust with my baby, but she immediately reassured me and took the time to explain her process. She is not only flexible, but incredibly understanding, and the way she truly cares about your dog is one of a kind. Jennifer is excellent with communication she provided consistent updates and photos throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind. I highly recommend her!”
“Claudia is a loving, caring and responsible pet owner. She cared for my dog like he was her own. It's awesome that she has a backyard and the neighborhood is very nice. I also appreciate that she works from home so my dog always has someone around. You will really enjoy getting to know Claudia. She is a very caring person.”
“OMG OMG!!! this lady is the BOMB… my mom got sick in icu (she passed away) but it was too much for my service dog in the icu so I reached out to her and she was AMAZING! Last minute sit and she jumped at the chance. I felt so good leaving my best friend in her care and I left my dog with NO one before. The love the care the pictures she sent me. BOOK HER NOW you won’t regret it! I felt so relaxed knowing my best friend was in great hands that I could relax and spend the last few days with my mom!!! THANK YOU THANK THANK YOU!!!”

“Stacy has been watching Trixie about 2 to 3 times a week since I adopted Trixie at 4 months old over a year ago. She's been a godsend allowing me to work downtown and have care for Trixie. She goes above and beyond, and I'm pretty sure Trixie thinks she's her mom :) Thanks for everything Stacy!”

“Abigail took care of my dog multiple times while my parents were out of town and I was at work. He was there for long periods of times and he loved every minute. I was nervous to send him in the beginning because he’s very high energy, but she provided pictures so I felt at ease and he was having a great time with the other dogs. He was exhaust at the end of the day and excited to go back!”

“I’ve used Rover in the past and after an initial meeting, have had great luck with dog walkers. Michelle is even a step above those walkers. Her kindness and patience in allowing my timid dog to get used to her slowly, over a few visits, was such a relief. Michelle’s a rockstar! 😊”
“Mari helped us with a drop-in visit with less than a weeks notice. She was great with our dog, who can be nervous of new people. Mari didn’t push our pooch beyond what she wanted to do, and we felt very appreciative knowing she was looking in on her while we were away for the day. I would highly recommend her.”
“Amanda is super kind and flexible. My dog Lucy absolutely adores walks/but can also be a bit difficult. Amanda has been accommodating and great for both of us. Thank you!”

Will be able to work before and after shifts, days off, weekends included! Holidays depend on availability. I ensure all environments are clean, safe, and comfortable for the pets.

About: Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’ve helped look after dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from high-energy pups to shy seniors who need a gentler touch. Friends, neighbors, and family regularly rely on me because I’m attentive, patient, and truly enjoy spending time with their pets. I make sure every dog feels comfortable, safe, and loved, whether we’re playing, going for walks, or just relaxing together. Your pet will get reliable care and plenty of affection while they’re with me. I have 1 year dog kennel experience that inspired me to become a vet assistant to hopefully start my own commercial business in the future! Thank you for considering me and contributing to my experience it is greatly appreciated and your animals will be treated like my own! I’m in school studying to become a veterinary assistant, so pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. My class schedule is flexible, giving me lots of availability on weekends and most weekdays. Since animal care is already a big part of my life, I’m able to provide consistent attention, playtime, and reliability for your pets. I do online. For pet sittings I do have a night part time job Monday-Thursday 11:00pm-3am and Saturdays 5pm-9pm so I can always stop by before and after and if your dogs are anxious I can always spend the night but I don’t plan on sleeping at your home. Your dog’s safety and comfort always come first when im caring for them in your home, follow your feeding, potty, and exercise routine so they feel secure and settled. If you don’t really have a route with pups and are a go with the flow person like I am I can provide, 8-10 potty’s breaks and lots of attention. For safety during walks in my neighborhood, there are no sidewalks so we walk against traffic so we can see oncoming cars with dogs on the right side of me farthest away from the road in grass. In the winter, I follow a cold-weather walking policy for safety: if it’s too cold for me in an t shirt it’s too cold for them! Usually requests winter weather gear like boots and coat but one can be provided(washed after every use with pet safe detergent). (Black puffer and no slip socks.) Night time walking- don’t worry about the days getting darker I’ve got it covered with my reflective gear, flashlight, collar light clips, and more. Thank you for understanding and helping keep your pet safe!

In school we worked with dogs, cats, horses, cows, and lambs. I have had dogs since I was a child, and I currently have 2 dogs and 1 cat. I worked on a farm taking care of horses for about two and a half years from 2020-2022. I've taken care of pets for friends/family for many years as well! I currently work at a vet hospital, though I am out on FMLA. Unfortunately, that means I can only take on pets less than 30 lbs at the moment. If you're looking for someone to take extra care of your pets, please reach out to see if we're a good fit! I'm currently working full time as a certified veterinary technician at a veterinary hospital. I work 40 hours a week with a varying schedule. Generally I work 8 am - 6 pm four days a week (my day off during the week changes each week). I work on Saturday about once per month. My rover clients will be scheduled around that availability. I currently live in an apartment with a cat and will not be able to watch clients' pets in my home. If I am watching pets in the client's home, I will take care of them the way I would take care of mine. I am respectful and conscientious of your personal space and privacy.
About: I have direct experience taking care of dogs and animals through helping neighbors and owning a dog myself. Ever since my adorable Labradoodle passed away, I've missed having a furry friend. I can't wait to get to meet so many new pets on a daily basis; I am very friendly to all animals and many dogs love me. I am comfortable with all size dogs and cats, in fact I don't have a preference for my next pet I own. I am a graduate from the University of Missouri with a degree in communications and I am a hardworking individual with a passion for working with animals. I can't wait to meet your pets soon :) I am recently accepted my first remote job, I’m still working full-time 8AM-5PM but I can be more flexible with my schedule, and yours. I am very patient and know the tricks to make dogs feel like they can trust me and I am a friend in their home. I will be quiet and gentle when entering the home as to not scare them or make them feel threatened. I can be flexible with your schedule as needed since I work a full-time remote job. I still need to be available 8AM-5PM but I can drop in or squeeze in a walk pretty easily. I am available on the weekends unless stated otherwise on my calendar. I don’t own any pets of my own. I am very meticulous and careful with pets I watch for others. Many people would say I am compulsively neat and organized so it comes in handy when handling other pet’s schedules or requirements.
“Hurt my leg last month and can't walk my dog. I'm so glad my vet and a couple trainers recommended Rover. Medea's been walking my baby a couple of weeks now. Caoimhe's been so much better behaved now that she's getting some exercise again. Medea is even continuing the training I'd been working on with her. Appreciate Medea so much!”
About: I've been caring for dogs and cats for nearly my entire life, so your furry friends will be in very experienced hands. I find genuine joy in being around animals and truly love the bond that comes with pet sitting. Since I believe staying active is essential for a happy pet, I especially enjoy taking dogs on long walks. It’s a great way for them to burn off energy and explore, providing a mutual benefit of exercise and fresh air for both myself and your pup! Lifelong Experience: Hands-on care with a variety of animals since childhood. Large Animal Familiarity: Comfortable and capable with both large and small dogs Active Care Style: Dedicated to ensuring your pet gets the movement and stimulation they need. I’m currently a full time college student and attend classes two days a week. This allows me to have an open and consistent schedule to care for the needs of clients! Growing up, I participated in dog obedience training with my county’s 4-H program. This experience allows me to promote a safe and nurturing environment while allowing the dog to have a positive experience.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was really young. Other than always having a dog of my own, I’ve taken care of pets of family, friends, and neighbors. This past year has really been the first time I’ve been without a pet. My daughter and I have a lot of love and attention to give any furry friend. I have early mornings and late afternoon-evening open Monday-Friday open and most weekends are completely open. Holiday time will have more availability with my Thanksgiving and winter break. I have a pretty big yard and a quiet neighborhood perfect for taking walks. I plan to do my best to make sure your pet feels as at home as possible when in my care.
About: I've been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember. Whether it was a fish, cat, dog or bird, they were all loved equally. I've taken care of my own pets, my extended family's pets when they leave them with me, as well as many, many clients' pets, who get a ton of loving and playtime. I started expanding my services with Rover back in 2021, but had to take a couple years off to focus on finishing school. As I've recently graduated from college, I now have an abundance of free time on my hands. Excluding the occasional doctor's appointment, I can be free all throughout the day with at least 1-2 days notice. I will have so much free time and energy to burn that taking care of your pets while be like a breeze. Being active is part of my routine so I'll have no issues keeping up with your fur baby.
About: I have much experience with animals. I have had a couple pets growing up including dogs, cats, and even a guinea pig! I love all animals! I am currently a full time college student and work full time as well! I am looking for part time work after 3pm Monday-Friday and open availability on Saturday and Sunday! When I had my dog a little over 5 years ago- I had a great set up for him. I had a kennel, leash for walks, and endless amounts of toys and treats! I loved bringing my dog on car rides which included getting a pup cup or some ice cream. I also enjoyed bringing my dog on walk and hikes!
About: I got my first dog when I was only 6 years old, since then, I care about all the dogs so much & help my family & my friends with their dogs, cats or any other animals - even horses - they need help with. I can help with puppies & seniors, I can care about them in health & sickness. My dogs are my children, they are my family. I spoil all my babies from playing in the pool or giving them a ride in a special pet stroller - & spoil them to death. I have 1/4 acre, almost fully fenced yard, but I also have invisible fence. Plenty toys & my dog to keep company & play with. I have mini pool to cool them off & pet stroller if they are tired or too old to walk. You need just bring your baby & the food & I will provide love, care & everything else they need. I work 2-3 days a week for only few hours. Sometimes I help with my grandchildren or I need to run out for an hour to do extra special chores to care about other animals. Besides this, I am always home. I enjoy playing & cuddling with dogs & cats, they are the best friens & family. If I am at your house - your rules, if we are at my house - also your rules but my little guests are always allowed to be on my sofa or sleep on my bed.
About: Hi there! My name is Lauren. Our pets are an important part of our family but unfortunately they can’t tagalong with us everywhere we go. Have you found yourself passing up opportunities, turning down offers or just having guilt about leaving them cooped up for too many hours? As a former business owner and having two dogs I understand the struggle. I had endless guilt about not spending enough time with my pups. But, you are in luck because you needn't feel guilt anymore. I have a flexible schedule which allows for you to make last-minute trips, on a whim decisions or just simply having a worry free day away from home. I have grown up with cats and dogs all my life. My pups and I have all gone to training classes so, I have a solid understanding of canine behavior in order to keep everyone safe and sound. I work in the health and wellness industry. My position allows for me to create my own schedule which is conducive to caring for all your beloved ones needs. I am super outdoorsy! So, I am familiar with many of our local parks and walking paths. I am always up for a car ride and to go to the park. Please just let me what you feel comfortable with.
About: My passion is animals and I view this as an opportunity to help others while also doing what I love! I have experience in handling a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, small pets, and livestock! Friends and family have often asked me to take care of their pets. In addition, I currently work as a Veterinary Assistant! I currently work at a Veterinary Clinic, but I have a fairly flexible schedule! Drop in visits can be before or after work, as well as on my lunch breaks. My goal is make sure your pet is safe and happy. I can assure you that with good communication and care, your pet will be in great hands! I will make sure to create a bond with your pet, so they feel comfortable in my care.

“Sumer was perfect! This is my first time using Rover and I was very apprehensive leaving my baby with someone I did not know. From the very first message, I felt more and more comfortable. When the time came to drop Raven off, I saw how she reacted to Sumer and I was immediately at ease. I trust dogs’ reactions to people. Her spirit is so welcoming and I knew my baby was in good hands. I received multiple updates and pics throughout the stay. I love that she was allowed on furniture and able to be cuddles like she is at home. She looked happy in every pic and it made me feel so much better while I was away. 10/10! Raven will be back :-) Thank you!”
“Charley is the best! Our dog had quite a bit of separation anxiety when we rescued her and Charley was there to support us through it all. We recently boarded our Willow for the first time and she loved it! We received frequent picture updates and were able to check in whenever we needed to. We highly recommend Charley to anyone looking for a dog sitter. She truly loves the dogs like her own.”
“Tanya was absolutely amazing with our dog Toby! From our first meet and greet, she was warm, professional, and clearly experienced with pets. While we were away, she sent daily updates and photos that showed Toby was relaxed, happy, and getting lots of love and attention. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in such capable hands. Tanya went above and beyond, and we’re so grateful. Highly recommend her to anyone on Rover!”
“Samantha was beyond amazing!! She was super sweet, and it felt as though Kai Puppy (my dog) instantly felt safe with her. Sam's house was clean and clutter free and seemed an excellent environment for our bigger puppy. Samantha herself was super friendly to my husband and me and listened to all our concerns and instructions regarding Kai without complaint (it was our first time leaving her, so we were nervous, but with Samantha, we honestly had no reason to be as she was great with Kai!). Samantha also sent updates on Kai's behavior along with picture periodically throughout her boarding which was terrific for my husband and I and kept us feeling very at ease having Kai away from us. Through her updates, we saw Kai playing and cuddling and having loads of fun during her stay. We highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for dog boarding, and we will most certainly book her again in the future for our Kai Puppy!!”
“Mary and her husband are absolutely wonderful caregivers! I received daily updates about my Ivy and they were very sweet, loving and caring with her. I highly recommend Mary to anyone who needs to be able to trust 100% that their fur babies will be well cared for!”
“Mary is just the best! She absolutely loves dogs and goes out of her way to make you and your furry baby feel like they are at home! I feel like she’s part of the family and cannot recommend her enough! Thank you Mary!!”
“Maiah was awesome. She was super responsive and sent us pictures of our dogs while they stayed with her. She took them for walks even though has a big fenced in yard for them to play. I definitely recommend her and would use her again.”
“As always, Lauren did a wonderful job of watching our Paisley. She is so conscientious and stays in communication while we are gone. Highly recommend! Her daughter is a great help too!”
“Rebecca and her partner were great with Lucy! She sent timely updates and pictures, and asked any questions she had. She followed instructions and kept my girl company for the day!”
“I had Deanne and her husband take care of my two Great Pyrenees for the night as a trial run for a longer stay later this year. I rebooked shortly after I picked them up. Deanne sent pictures and updates multiple times, and made me feel extremely comfortable . My dogs loved staying with them, were very well taken care of, and came home happy! I will absolutely be booking Deanne and her family for any future stays that we’ll need! Highly recommend!”
“Kaitlyn was amazing! She updated daily and made sure our babies were so well taken care of. She went above and beyond and I’m so grateful we chose to book with her. I will absolutely be booking her for any future needs for our pups.”
“Brandi was very understanding & accommodating of our schedule. She provided great feedback during Winnie’s stay. She was professionally able to deal with all her needs, she even pulled a tick off her! Thanks Brandi”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my fur babies received while I was away from Emily, her sons, and their pup Gertie! She's incredibly attentive and has a genuine love for animals. I received daily updates with photos, videos and notes of their daily adventures. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter! She is so kind and loving to our dogs.”
“Julia was absolutely a dream! She took such incredible care of our Weimaraner, Mozzie. Great communication, great photos and she made sure he had his own vacation while we were away! 10/10 and will rebook again!”
“Dana is AMAZING!!! Skylar has such a fun time at her house and she made new friends. Dana sent us pictures and updates of our Skylar everyday which I loved to see. I would definitely refer her to everybody around and also will contact her again if we happen to need someone to watch Skylar again. Five stars!!!”
“Ashley took great care of our husky, Cleo. We got so many pictures and videos which was really appreciated! Ashley was very communicative throughout the stay. We would definitely board Cleo with her again and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for doggie daycare and boarding in the area!”
About: I’ve taken care of my sweet 70 lb pit bull for 4 years now in my home with a fully fenced backyard, downstairs dog play area, private room and crate for your dog, and eufy camera access to the private room. My dog has esophageal dysmotility so I understand medically complicated dogs. My home is ideal for a dog that is lower energy and enjoys calm and quiet environments. I work remote so I am home throughout the day other than the occasional doctor appointment. On average when I leave the home, it’s usually only about 2 hours and the max is about 4 hours. I also take my dog to a home groomer every other week so I can coordinate with you to take your dog to my groomer when my dog goes for grooming for an extra cost plus you paying the groomer separately. The most important thing is that your dog and my dog get along and/or are neutral. When I leave for brief periods your dog will be crated in their private room with the door closed and my dog will be loose but without access to your dog. Note: I DO NOT take dogs on walks. I believe it is too high risk for potential altercation with other dogs or your pet and I being separated. The alternative will be my backyard where they can play and explore and also I have a downstairs dog play area with a large dog bed and many toys! I work fully remote so your dog will be with me at all times (unless I have an appointment or errand to run) either in my office, their own private room with a crate, or in the living room. I typically wake up around 6 am and pet care happens whenever my dog needs so I can do the same for your dog in terms of potty breaks and feeding and play time. I am typically in bed by 8 pm but will get up if needed to take my dog out to the bathroom as well. Safety is my main priority. I require that our dogs get along/are neutral to one another to prevent any sort of altercation. If there ever is an altercation, you would be informed immediately and the dogs can easily be separated for the rest of the day/boarding booking. I have a very quiet and calm home and live in a quiet neighborhood as well. I take breaks during work to get on the couch and spend time with my dog and will do the same for yours! Your dog must be crate trained and will be put in a crate for any time I must leave the home (max 4 hours at a time). Your dog will also have to be either in their crate or in their private room with the door closed while I sleep. Them being able to be in their private room with the door closed while I sleep will be allowed on a case-by-case basis. Note: I DO NOT take dogs on walks. I believe it is too high of a safety risk for potential altercation with other dogs or your pet and I being separated. The alternative will be my backyard where they can play and explore and also I have a downstairs dog play area with a large dog bed and many toys!
“Michelle was the best sitter we could ever dreamed of ! She has an amazing personality and a huge heart for dogs. That was a first time we left our Jax with the sitter, and he came back as happy as he can be , and even a little spoiled 😊. Michelle is very knowledgeable and detailed oriented, and she always follows your home routine. She treats every dog like her own , and gives them a lot of attention. The best sitter ever!”
