“June is wonderful! She gives us regular updates with photos. We always know our pup is in great hands and well taken care of. It’s so nice to know she has a comfortable and safe place to stay while we are away. Highly recommended!”


“Thank you so much for taking Maple on such short notice. Five stars are simply not enough to describe the wonderful experience we had. It was comforting to see that Maple had a loving home away from home. She clearly enjoyed playing in the fenced yard with Sadie, and I truly appreciated the frequent communication and photos you shared. It was great to see her receiving so much love and attention. I will definitely be using your services again.”

About: I grew up on a farm, and ever since I was a little girl, I have always loved animals. I’m a grandma with plenty of free time, and I would love to welcome your dog into our family while you are away. Since my grandchildren visit, please let me know if your dog does not get along with kids. Currently, I have a Frenchie and a mini Schnauzer who is paralyzed. They love other dogs, but I do have baby gates to keep them separate if needed. Owning a paralyzed dog has taught me a lot over the past couple of years. If your pet requires any special care, i am more than happy to accommodate their needs. I am never gone for longer than couple hours at a time. I have a very open schedule so your pet with get lots of attention. I will welcome your pet into our family and treat them as if they were our own. Please share your dog’s daily routine, and I will follow it to ensure they feel at home. I understand how stressful it can be when an owner is away, so I’ll make sure to give your dog extra attention, exercise, and love to ease their anxiety and make their stay as enjoyable as possible. I have baby gates and can provide your dog with space away from kids and my dogs if needed. I will take your dog on walks and provide off-leash time in our backyard as well. If your pet requires medication, I am happy to administer it.
“We felt secure and confident leaving our dog, River, with Carolyn for a little bit over than 2 weeks. Carolyn was very nice and patient, takes River out for walks and swimming. She sends us frequent updates and pictures and we love these updates especially since we miss our pup when we’re away. River is home now and may be a little bit sad since her stay with Carolyn seemed like a fun pup vacation. 😆”

“Dorothy is amazing and we couldn’t recommend her enough. She took the time to get to know my pup and her needs, and sent many updates while we were away. We are happy to have found someone we trust so much!”

“Carla was so great to work with! She shared so many videos and pictures of our pooch playing in the backyard and it was so amazing to see! I loved the fact that she treated our dog like he was one of her own. She really helped put our nerves to rest throughout the whole process and I would definitely be booking with Carla again!”

“Barb, was absolutely wonderful. Very accommodating and communicative. Our dog is a picky eater and she even went as far as feeding him out of her hand to make sure he was eating enough. We couldn’t have asked for a better care taker for our fur baby. Will definitely book again!”

“Ashley was great! She responded to my request almost immediately, was able to take care of my puppy upon very short notice, and she sent me cute pictures and videos throughout his short stay. I will definitely request Ashley again if we need a sitter.”

About: I've been taking care of animals since I was 14, and they are part of my love language! I've taken care of and have had a wide variety of pets, dog sizes, and different medical needs. Part of my life's calling is to be with animals and give them all the love. We live on a 7-acre farmette, with land to roam and play, and forest as well. We have a barn that houses 23 free range chickens and ducks. These are also my pets who I love dearly. I have 2 cats, a brother and sister names George and Lucy who are total love bugs. My daughter Teagan is almost 6, and has been around animals since she was a baby. I am currently working full time, 40 hours a week, Monday-Friday. I work remotely from my house on Fridays. I am off on Saturday and Sunday all day. We live on a 7-acre farm in a two-story house with privacy. Our house has plenty of room to accommodate different dog sizes. Our acreage also provides plenty of room for dogs to run and play!
“Michelle was very accommodating and took excellent care of Sally. She listened to our current schedule for Sally, took her for long walks and let Sally be comfortable in her home. I would highly recommend Michelle to watch your pet.”


“Elaina and Joseph V. were absolutely amazing with my dog during his stay from July 1 through July 5. They kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear they genuinely cared for him and treated him like part of their own family. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I really appreciated their professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail throughout the entire boarding experience. I would absolutely trust them to watch my dog again and highly recommend Elaina and Joseph V. to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitters.”


“We had our 1 year old dog stay with Melynda for a couple of day visits and then for one week - this was our dog's first time away from home. Our dog had a great time, was well cared for, and she enjoyed playing with the other dogs. We appreciated the updates about our dog. We will be booking with her again the next time!”


“Fantastic! She provided regular updates and was so helpful. The backyard was a break place for our dog to be. Would totally have her again and have already booked another time!”

“We had a wonderful experience with JoAnne. Our lab dog, Charlie got very spoiled for the short time we had him stay with JoAnne. She kept us informed oh how he was doing and sent us pics to put us at ease. We will definitely use her again!!! Charlie got a doggie bag to take home with a tennis bag and treats. Very nice of her to make him feel so special.”

“Derek is an outstanding sitter. I trust him and his family to care for my dog Bear whenever we are out of town and I know Bear loves spending time with them. I love the updates and picture Derek sends to keep me posted how Bear is doing. I would highly recommend Derek as a sitter.”

“Alyssa was awesome!! Super flexible with making things work with my schedule and I always felt like mugsy was in good hands. She kept me updated with pictures and you could tell she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, I will absolutely be using her as a sitter again!”

About: I have been a cat mama for 14 years. My diva girl, Bean, made me a fur mama. Not only have I taken care of mine—which have had special needs and medications. I help take care of other families babies while they are away. Some say I’m the only one they trust!

“We had a wonderful experience boarding our two senior cats with Ivanka. This was our first time using a pet sitter, and we were a little nervous. However, Ivanka made the entire process incredibly easy. She reassured us the whole time. From the moment we dropped them off until we picked them up several days later, Ivanka kept in regular contact, sending thoughtful updates, videos, and photos. She was receptive to everything we asked, even administering eye drops to one of our girls after we noticed in a video that her eyes looked irritated. That kind of attentiveness meant the world to us. Her home is clean, calm, and free from overpowering scents or fragrances. The dedicated cat room has a cozy cubby, wall shelves, a tunnel, a window perch, and a screened door that allows the cats to see and hear what’s going on in the house without being overwhelmed. It gave our girls a safe, quiet bubble while still allowing them to feel included. Ivanka was also incredibly patient and understanding with our bossy elder girl, who can be very vocal and demanding. Rather than getting frustrated, she simply worked around her (many) quirks. We’re especially grateful that she allowed us to extend their stay by a day at the last minute without any issue. That kind of flexibility, combined with her evident love and understanding of cats, gave us total peace of mind. When we brought the girls home, they were calm and relaxed—just a little tired from the new experience, but not stressed. That’s a remarkable outcome for two elderly cats who had never been away from their humans before. We trust Ivanka completely and will absolutely be using her again. Her care made a stressful time so much easier. We’re truly grateful.”


About: I’ve grown up around cats and absolutely love taking care of them. I’ve always wished I could have one of my own, so I genuinely enjoy every chance I get to spend time with cats! I’m experienced with feeding, playtime, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure cats feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every cat has a different personality and I’m happy to give them the patience, attention, and care they need. Your cat will be treated like family with me!
“Chloe did great with my cat, Ellie. She came over twice a day with no issues and fed, watered, and cleaned the litter area for Ellie when I was out of town for two weeks. The house looks spotless and Ellie appreciated the company. Highly recommended!”


“Carolyn was amazing! She went above and beyond, even taking thoughtful steps such as taking my trash can out for trash day despite me not requesting her to. She provided great photos and updates on my cats that really helped me to feel assured that they were in good hands while I was away. She even took the time to try and get my boys to come out of their shells a little! Would definitely recommend!!”

“Natalie is really great at what she does. She fills me in on what my dog does while walking him and do on… she’s seriously awesome! Flexible and kind. My Bohdi (black lab puppy) lovesssss her!”


“Heather is such a wonderful cat sitter! This was our second time having her do drop in visits for our 3 cats. She does a great job communicating and we love the pictures she sends. Our cats are happy and aren't anxious at all when we come home. We highly recommend her and will continue to use her services! Thank you, Heather!”


About: Hello! Thank you for checking out my profile. I have been pet sitting for over 20 years but I'm newer to Rover. I have experience with various animals. Not just the four legged ones. I have cared for aquatic pets and reptiles. I have experience with blind, deaf and disabled animals. I have cared for dogs requiring insulin injections along with many other medications. I'm certified in dog and cat CPR. I am available full time to be in your home. I like the flexibility of being in the home most of my day to allow the freedom for your pet to go out as much as needed. Also, they will get tons of attention! If you're looking for drop in visits, and my schedule says I'm unavailable, please message me here. I'm usually able to fit this into my schedule! I like to follow what the pet's usual routine is. This allows them to feel safe, and stress and anxiety levels go down quickly once they're used to me. This is what I feel is most important when staying with them. My goal is to bond with them and develop trust for any future visits.

“Rachael was wonderful! Incredibly communicative - her report cards gave me such good peace of mind while I was away from my babies. Super flexible as far as the initial meet and greet and exchanging keys. I will absolutely be using her again when I am out of town. 🩷”

About: I am experienced in administering medicinal injections, nail trimming and teeth brushing of larger breeds, lifting 60+ lbs, pad and potty training, and assisting senior and special needs dogs. I currently work remote and spend most of the day with my own pup by my side. We go to the nearby dog park at least weekly, go on two 20-25 minute walks (1mi+) daily, and play regularly throughout the day. He is very friendly and happy to tag along for any walks or play times, if the company is welcomed. I have a large crate available, if needed, and an in ground stake in the front and back yard with 30ft leads attached, allowing for plenty of time outside in shaded and unshaded areas. Food bowls are cleaned after every meal and pet waste is cleaned up after every trip outside.

“Mackenzie was great with our three cats. She showed up at the agreed upon time, took care of our cats and the litter boxes, sent pictures and responded to our messages, we definitely will reach out to her again when we need help!”
“Marcy has been great, we have used her services several times the last few months and have all good things to say. The biggest help is being able to work with the short notices due to my work schedule. Her flexibility has been awesome. My dogs seem to really enjoy her and Marcy has been wonderful to my pups.....”

“Monica and Eric were absolutely fantastic! The took the time to talk with us on a meet and greet a few days before we dropped our dog off. Our little guy had a great time with them and they sent multiple picutures thoroughout the day. We will definitely be using them in the future!”

“Carolyn was amazing! She took our large dog Belle at a last minute request for doggy daycare and was very thorough to make sure she had all the information and tools needed to watch her. Carolyn was very sweet and kind from start to finish with us and Belle. I felt very comfortable leaving Belle with her and would do so again in a heartbeat. Thank you!”

About: I am an animal lover, through and through. Dogs, cats, hedgehogs, birds… you name it. I treat my guest animals like my own and love on them as much as possible. I enjoy taking cute portraits of the pets in my care and I send lots of photos and written updates. I currently have a female Aussie/Pit mix, currently fostering a female Blue Doberman, and have had Doberman Pinschers in the past from puppies through old age until the rainbow bridge. I’m patient with puppies and elderly animals. I check to see which commands they know and how they have been trained to keep them consistent in my care, and have experience administering medications to them. Before joining Rover, I frequently dog and cat sat for friends and family. I am currently fully remote and based at home. I have a lot of flexibility to accommodate your pet’s schedule and needs. My schedule may change in the future but I will update my info when that happens. I have one female 7 year old Aussie/Pit Mix and one 2 year old foster female Doberman. I have a spare bedroom to host guests with their crates and belongings but during the day they are with me, within line of sight in my home. My yard is fenced (4ft) and only two steps to the yard from the door. There are no children living in my home. I live is a quiet neighborhood and can go for walks as needed.
About: I've often thought about how best to care for my pets when I go out of town. I would want them to be with someone who is loving and makes them feel as if they were with their owner. I would treat your pet the same way I treat mine, with love, care, and attention they need and deserve. We have a fenced yard, neighborhood sidewalks, and nearby walking. I'm super active and into health and fitness. I do crossfit during the week. "A dog is this only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself" I’m currently a stay at home mom to an 2yo, 8yo, and a 6mo puppy. I’ve grew up with dogs in my household. My schedule is pretty much open from 10am- 5pm. I have a fenced in yard and one friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. My dog is trained to be out of the cage while I’m gone. I am more then happy to crate your fur baby while I leave my house to do daily errands.
“June came to our rescue as we had an emergency and needed her last minute and saved us with watching pablo and her new fur friend Veloui! Thank you so much! SHE IS THE BEST!!!”

“Danielle is AWESOME!! Roxy had a great time with her and her dogs and kids are amazing! She sent me photos during the day and let me know how Roxy was doing. She takes her for nice walks and gets plenty of exercise and fun. I'm super happy with the care Roxy gets at her house. Thanks!”

“Cheryl was phenomenal and really helped me out on short notice to give my dog a calm place to spend the day. She was very communicative and flexible, and had lots of photos to share at the end of the day. Thank you, Cheryl!”

About: I have a half acre of fenced in yard for dogs to run and play. I’ve had pets in my family my whole life: always dogs, a few cats over the years, a house rabbit, hamsters, ducks, fish, lizards, turtles - so many lovely creatures! I’ve worked with rescues and shelters and have taken care of elderly dogs at the end of their lifespan administering medications orally, injections, and topically. For my other job I do freelance graphic design from home and make my own schedule, so I’m very flexible with my schedule. When pet sitting at my home your pet will have my company throughout the day. I offer check ins, feeding, walking, playing, cleaning up after all pets and livestock at their home. I board dogs and caged pets overnight or for multiple days at my home where dogs have access to a fenced yard at any time of the day, full time supervision, and cozy accommodations.

About: UPDATE 6/20/23: Do you want to go out for the Fourth of July? We have decided to stay home, so if you need a sitter reach out soon! I will only watch one other dog at a time, so your dog will be with just my family & pets. Nervous dogs ok. We don't expect it to be super loud in our home since we're not very close to the fireworks. Have multiple dogs?Send me a message and let's chat about it! UPDATE 5/1/23: We are ready to welcome your dog to our home while you take your vacation! Any breed, any size, any special needs are fine. Your dog must be ok with our dog, cats and a 12 yo child. UPDATE 4/1/23: We have added a puppy to our family. I will be taking a break from Rover while we get our new pup trained and ready to have new friends visit. I work from home everyday but Thursday. Calm, relaxed home with fenced yard and nice neighborhood for walks. Our elderly dog sadly crossed the rainbow bridge, so right now we do not have a dog. We do have two cats, they will hide or not care - depending on your dog. We have no small children. We are not smokers. We will only watch one or two dogs at a time (three if they're all in the same family). We're committed to long-term dog sitting if that's what you're searching for. Contact me with any questions! I work from home and have a fairly open schedule. I can walk morning, noon and late afternoon with play on and off all day. I have a fenced yard for the pups that aren't fans of a leashed walk. I have a good sized home with dogs welcome everywhere. Fenced yard and lots of nice walking paths nearby. Naps on couches welcome. I currently have a 5mo. puppy and two cats. 5/1/23
“Jill is awesome! So down to earth and just the sweetest lady you’ll meet! Was very accommodating last minute for me so I could make it to my plans and my dogs felt right at home at her house! Would recommend her to anyone!!”

About: I would be extremely responsible & caring with any dog or cat. Like humans, pets all have their own personalities & needs. I am adaptable to this & love creating a lasting bond. I am recently retired in great health with no obligations other then the hope I can take care of your dog and cat when needed. I can adapt to your dog or cat’s needs and how it relates to my home or yours. If my client’s home I would show great respect as to the owner’s wishes & expectations.
“Can’t thank Christina enough for coming through on such short notice! Blair had the best time and was the happiest pup with her. So grateful to have someone I can trust with my baby, knowing she’s in great hands and having a fun day.”

“Super communicative, really showed that she cared about taking really good care of my dog 🐶 on the walks, and left really awesome and helpful notes with each trip!”


“Julia was wonderful with our dogs, and her communication was excellent throughout the entire process. She was incredibly patient, quickly bonded with them, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our pets. We highly recommend Julia and would gladly have her care for our dogs again! Shannon”

About: Here’s a warm, friendly, and professional version: I’ve spent my whole life caring for the pets of friends, family, and neighbors, and it’s something that has always brought me a lot of joy. I’ve been on Rover for a few years now and have truly loved getting to know and look after so many wonderful animals. These days, I primarily offer drop-ins, walks, and house sitting, and I look forward to the opportunity to care for your pet. I don’t currently have any pets of my own, so it’s a real pleasure to spend time with yours and give them all the attention and affection they deserve. Here’s a polished, friendly paragraph you can use for your Rover profile: I’m currently enrolled in online school, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to focus on your pets. I’m available to care for your pet in your home five days a week, as well as on weekends, and I’m happy to provide as much attention, affection, and one-on-one care as they need. Your pets will never feel overlooked—they’ll have someone present, patient, and genuinely happy to spend time with them. Here’s a refined paragraph that includes everything: I take the safety, comfort, and routine of every pet in my care very seriously. I follow their daily schedule closely so that—even though they’ll miss you—their days feel familiar and uninterrupted. I also care for your home while you’re away, keeping everything neat, tidy, and just as you left it. With experience caring for senior dogs, I understand the importance of maintaining a clean, calm environment and keeping their personal spaces fresh and comfortable. You can trust that both your pet and your home will be well looked after.

“Thank you so much for taking Maple on such short notice. Five stars are simply not enough to describe the wonderful experience we had. It was comforting to see that Maple had a loving home away from home. She clearly enjoyed playing in the fenced yard with Sadie, and I truly appreciated the frequent communication and photos you shared. It was great to see her receiving so much love and attention. I will definitely be using your services again.”

“We felt secure and confident leaving our dog, River, with Carolyn for a little bit over than 2 weeks. Carolyn was very nice and patient, takes River out for walks and swimming. She sends us frequent updates and pictures and we love these updates especially since we miss our pup when we’re away. River is home now and may be a little bit sad since her stay with Carolyn seemed like a fun pup vacation. 😆”

“Dorothy is amazing and we couldn’t recommend her enough. She took the time to get to know my pup and her needs, and sent many updates while we were away. We are happy to have found someone we trust so much!”

“Carla was so great to work with! She shared so many videos and pictures of our pooch playing in the backyard and it was so amazing to see! I loved the fact that she treated our dog like he was one of her own. She really helped put our nerves to rest throughout the whole process and I would definitely be booking with Carla again!”

“Barb, was absolutely wonderful. Very accommodating and communicative. Our dog is a picky eater and she even went as far as feeding him out of her hand to make sure he was eating enough. We couldn’t have asked for a better care taker for our fur baby. Will definitely book again!”

“Ashley was great! She responded to my request almost immediately, was able to take care of my puppy upon very short notice, and she sent me cute pictures and videos throughout his short stay. I will definitely request Ashley again if we need a sitter.”

“Michelle was very accommodating and took excellent care of Sally. She listened to our current schedule for Sally, took her for long walks and let Sally be comfortable in her home. I would highly recommend Michelle to watch your pet.”


“Elaina and Joseph V. were absolutely amazing with my dog during his stay from July 1 through July 5. They kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear they genuinely cared for him and treated him like part of their own family. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I really appreciated their professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail throughout the entire boarding experience. I would absolutely trust them to watch my dog again and highly recommend Elaina and Joseph V. to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitters.”


“We had our 1 year old dog stay with Melynda for a couple of day visits and then for one week - this was our dog's first time away from home. Our dog had a great time, was well cared for, and she enjoyed playing with the other dogs. We appreciated the updates about our dog. We will be booking with her again the next time!”


“Fantastic! She provided regular updates and was so helpful. The backyard was a break place for our dog to be. Would totally have her again and have already booked another time!”

“We had a wonderful experience with JoAnne. Our lab dog, Charlie got very spoiled for the short time we had him stay with JoAnne. She kept us informed oh how he was doing and sent us pics to put us at ease. We will definitely use her again!!! Charlie got a doggie bag to take home with a tennis bag and treats. Very nice of her to make him feel so special.”

“Derek is an outstanding sitter. I trust him and his family to care for my dog Bear whenever we are out of town and I know Bear loves spending time with them. I love the updates and picture Derek sends to keep me posted how Bear is doing. I would highly recommend Derek as a sitter.”

“Dickson is a very caring dog sitter. He did everything he could to make my bulldog feel comfortable and have fun. He gives video and picture updates of their adventures. I would absolutely have him watch my dog again!”

“Emily and family treated our Briggs like their own. They went on walks, cozied up by the fire and had a sleepover in the living room because he can’t get up stairs very well. I was sent pictures and he looked happy and content! We will be sure to give Emily a call next time we need someone to watch Briggs!”


“I was so lucky to find Stella! Boarding the girls in a loving home was exactly what I wanted. Having a fenced yard was a great vacation for them. The updates and photos were great. Highly recommend!”
