“Bridget is amazing. Our dog hates to stay anywhere without us. She wont eat. She just lays around and mopes. We planned a 10 day vacation and needed someone that knew how to take care of anxious dogs. We could not believe our luck when we found Bridget. She brought Shelly into her home and treated her like one of her own. She sent us updates and pictures daily. It felt like we dropped Shelly off at doggy camp. She was comfortable the first day there. She ate, played with the other dogs, went for walks, watched tv, and got lots oflove. It was such a relief! We will definitely be repeat clients.”
“Elizabeth was amazing with our dog, Chief! She took great care of him while we were away and kept us updated so we knew he was doing well. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. She’s very kind, responsive, and clearly loves dogs. We would absolutely trust her to watch Chief again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”
“Leslie is a wonderful sitter for our pet Brinkley. We have used her several times and Brinkley is always happy and well taken care of each and every time. I drive over 30 miles to get her service and I wouldn’t leave our pet Brinkley with anyone else.”
“We trust no one else with our boys! They are always so well taken care of and communication could not be better. We’ve booked many times and will continue to do so as long as they’ll have us!”
“Magda and her family are truly angels on earth. Their home is clean, calm, inviting, and happy. Rufus was instantly comfortable there which is no small feat with my nervous little dude. They treated him like their own during his stay, making sure he was warm, cozy, fed and happy, and she sent constant updates so I’d always know how he was doing. I cannot recommend them enough, and am so grateful to have found them on Rover. Thank you Magda and crew!!”
“She took amazing care of my baby and made me feel completely at ease. She was so sweet, professional, and attentive the entire time. I could tell my dog was comfortable and well cared for, which means everything to me. I truly appreciate the love and attention she gave, and I will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️”
“Karen was great with our dogs Bella and Brandy! She was very friendly and responsive and sent us lots of updates and pictures during our vacation! We will definitely use Karen again for future trips!”
“Katie and her family were so amazing with our baby dog. She’s like a totally different pup! She doesn’t get upset in the crate, her bitting has dramatically dropped, and she’s much more claim throughout the day. I cannot thank her enough for taking ivy in on short notice and letting her be apart of her family. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Julie C is amazing! Hampton loves spending his vacation with her and her family, and we feel great knowing he is loved and happy through her pictures and updates she she sends daily. Wonderful sitter and family. Thank you again, Julie!”
“Sylvie is awesome 👏 My fur baby, Willa, absolutely loves staying here. Sylvie keeps me updated with several pictures and videos throughout the day and treats Willa like she is family 🩷. To anyone who may be nervous about boarding - Sylvie is the one to trust to take the best care of your pupper! Highly recommend!”
“Eloise was a great sitter. She communicated with me daily and sent me pictures, which relieved my anxiety so much! I will not hesitate to ask her to watch my dog again!”
“This was my first time leaving my dog with someone. I was so happy that Ollie was happy. I didn’t feel stressed out about her while I was gone. Jennifer communicated every day with me and sent pictures. I am great full to her and her husband for taking care of Ollie for me! I will definitely use them again, and recommend them to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter!”
About: Hi! I’m Victoria. I grew up surrounded by cats, and 6 years ago my husband and I adopted Harley, our sweet little dog who completely stole our hearts. I know how important it is to feel confident and comfortable when someone else is caring for your fur baby. I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give Harley. Whether your pet prefers playtime, cuddles, slow sniff-walks, or just gentle company, I’m here to match their needs and routine. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to send updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and happy at all times. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide regular walks, check-ins, playtime, and constant attention whenever needed. I prioritize safety and comfort in every home I care for. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keep environments clean and secure, and provide constant supervision during walks and visits.
“This was the first time that my dogs had been left overnight anywhere. I was nervous at first but, Lisa made me feel comfortable and assured me that the dogs would be just fine. She sent me texts& pictures to update me. My older dog Terra has always seemed to be dog aggressive; yet within two days she was playing with other dogs with no problem. I plan to use Lisa's services in the future.”

About: I was always the go to person for pet sitting in my family. Growing up, we always had at least one dog in the house. And I was fortunate enough to have had one for 16 years. Her name was Bear. She was the best family dog anyone could ask for and I miss her very much. She is the reason I love taking care of animals so much. Recently, I have become very fond of cats and live with 2 of them. They have stolen my heart and take care of them every day. I also have two reptiles which are my whole world. No matter what animal, I would love to take care of them. I’m the sitter for you! I am in between jobs at the moment so my schedule is very flexible right now. I am very open and honest so I’m very willing to for the schedule that’s best for you and your pet! I am not offering services in my home. As much as I would love to, I rent and cannot have a lot of animals staying with me. I’m sorry for the inconvenience!

About: My husband and I have a lot of experience caring for cats, dogs, and birds. I've been house sitting /animal sitting for around 7 years on the side. I absolutely love animals, and I've had experience caring for a large variety of them. I've watched 4 large dogs at a time, all of whom needed special medication and attention. I care for every animal like they're my own, and just absolutely love being around dogs. I have a spacious home and I am very attentive. I live in a safe neighborhood, and I am by my phone 24/7 so can be in contact with you at any time. I work remotely and sometimes have to go in to the office. My husband is almost always home, and we always make sure someone is at home to be with the animals. Care is always personalized to the dogs needs. We go for regular walks, follow any dietary restrictions, and always check with the pet-parent if there's anything else needed.
About: I have had dogs all my life & have taken care of friends & family’s pets. I tend to adopt “problem” dogs that other people can’t handle. I love a challenge & gaining the trust of the dog. I used to frequent the Dominican Republic to feed & give flea baths to the neglected street dogs out there. I’m currently working from home & was a bartender for the last 20 yrs but now looking for a new career with animals because they are my true passion. I just moved to the Gardner, Illinois for a bigger yard & a 6ft privacy fence to expand my dog sitting business. I also have a small pool for the dogs. I have lots of gates up throughout the house & different rooms I can put dogs in if any need to separated. I also have large crates I can use.

We would have time to play, walk, snuggle, and bond. I have a large fenced in back yard. Your baby would feel at home and comfortable in my home, they would have full access to roam and wander. They also would be allowed on the couches / beds for snuggles and belly rubs. I work from home, giving me the flexibility to ensure your pup has plenty of time and attention. I have an 11 year old son who is just as much as an animal lover. I have a large fenced in back yard. My foxy girl loves to get her zoomies out back there, and loves playing fetch.

About: I have a lot of experience with dogs as both an owner and as a foster home/parent. I recently had a foster dog that was used as a breeding Mom dog for 4 years and was terrified when we got her. I have pet sat at my home for family, friends, and neighbor's dogs. I would go multiple times a week to my neighbor's house to take her dogs out and play with them while Mom & Dad were working late. I have also volunteered with humane societies over the years, even flew down to FL to volunteer with a rescue after a hurricane. I have experience transporting foster dogs to their new homes with a rescue group out of Missouri where we adopted our foster fail from. I am an Independent Photographer so I only work when I have sessions or editing to do, leaving me with lots of time to dedicate to the pups 😀 The dogs wellbeing is my top concern always! If I am coming to walk or play with your dog while you're at work I will make sure your family member is happy and content before leaving.

“First time putting my 12 week old puppy I was a bit nervous not knowing how he would react. Michelle communicated the plan for him at the meet and greet and did an excellent job providing updates thought out day. It really helped give peace of mind that he was in great hands.”
“Rhett was just comically exhausted after 2 busy days with you. Clearly he is loving the attention and play! Appreciate the flexibility you offer to meet our schedules.”
“Denise was honestly incredible! It was pretty short notice and some people wouldn’t watch Caesar because he’s a pitbull, she rearranged her schedule to watch him. She gave me multiple updates and pictures throughout. When I came to pick him up, she gave me a painting he made (with the help of peanut butter and plastic wrap I assume)! 1000% recommend”
About: I have loved and owned dogs since i was 10, I'm not a professional trainer but i have trained my own dogs in obedience and nosework. I work remotely and am home all day, providing attentive, consistent care and companionship to ensure your dog feels safe, loved, and never alone while your gone.

About: Lifelong animal lover experienced in river walks, companion feedings, soothing chest rubs, treat distribution, and earning a sly cats trust. I will make sure your pets are happy, SAFE, and completely spoiled while you’re away! After a recent career shift- a friend suggested I try Rover to generate a bit of income. Bonus: an opportunity to do something I LOVE! I’m just getting started (here), but I look forward to meeting your fur family. I closely monitor outdoor time to ensure the pet is secure in the yard. I do NOT have a fence (all neighbors do). I will either clip them to the ground lead (125 lb hold), or long leash them in hand (I prefer your dog wear a harness while in my care). For their safety and security, your pet will NOT be outside without supervision. When out walking I will remain aware and assess surroundings to prepare for any triggers the dog may have and offer redirection. I will closely follow your schedule and preferences to make transition of care easier.
About: I have 10 pets myself, all well taken care of of and ranging from 5 years old to 1. I LOVE to pet sit and meet new furry friends. We have a huge fenced in back yard for them to play in as well! I have experience with pets with anxiety, fear aggression, and more. I am not scared of inconvenience or personality stigmas. I also have experience with special needs pups, elderly pups, and giving medication. I have always loved animals since I was a kid and always advocate for them. I own my own business where I work from home, so I have plenty of time and availability to take care of your fur babies! I believe in reward based training rather than punishment! I can crate your pups if needed. I also have experience in cats and other small animals who need watching.

About: I have been around and raised animals of all kinds from the start of my life. I love animals! I currently have 4 dogs, a 20lb doxie mix, a pit mix, mountain curr, and great pyrenees. I am comfortable with all breeds and size of dogs. I also have a spoiled inside cat, and an 11 year old barn cat that is spoiled for being outside, but he hates being inside, so he stays where he is happy. Growing up my family raised Rottweilers that the parents were police dog trained, so I learned at a young age how to train dogs. I have taken care of all kinds of animals from lizards to birds to horses and cows and of course dogs and cats and about everything in between. I have a pretty flexible schedule. Mostly during the week, but if you become a regular, I could fit in weekens too if needed. Just ask me. As of now, I am only going to do dog walking and drop in for dog or cat. My yard isn't fenced so I won't have day care until I get things set up better. I will walk your dog with whatever collar or harness you have for them and I can bring my own leashes or use yours. I'll make sure to not have them on concrete or asphalt too much if it is hot so their paws don't get hurt.

Pet is a daily thing for me, whether it be caring for my own animals, family friends animals, or even the animals I have to care for at school. It is one of the most important things to me, being a voice for animals. I have 3 cats and 2 dogs at home so it a a constant thing to make sure they’re all cared for. Feeding, walking, cleaning up after them etc. It would be the same for me taking care of a clients pet. Feeding, watering, playing or walking, or cuddles.

About: I've been boarding and fostering a variety of dogs since I was 18. During my fostering I've handled reclimating dogs with many different behavioral issues. I have shadowed master trainers and now I am involved in the dog show/sporting world. Rest assured if your dog has special needs--I have experience in many different areas. If your dog needs to learn training, and you want to treat it as a training session, this could be arranged. (Training will cost more) My two girls are both titled in conformation, dog trick, Canine good citizen and we are working on agility titles. I only do positive FUN training. I currently am a full time student and my classes are all online. This gives me the ultimate flexibility as far as scheduling goes. My girls get a walk at 530 am before I head to the gym. Then the couch napping commences until I return at 7 am. Once I'm back I am home all day. We go in and out at least once every few hours. I have a 1/3 acre fenced in yard. I do have dog agility equipment I set up for play time, and as many balls as they want to chase. The yard is sprayed for ticks and was fully treated upon buying the house for parasites. (I'm just a worry wort when it comes to my dogs health and safety) Inside my house is all dog/puppy friendly. I have gates to prevent going up and down stairs (this is bad for the hips of both growing pups and the elderly). I only use a steamer for floor cleaning, meaning it is 100% chemical free and sanitizes 99% (this is the packaging information! Lol) of germs. I have a doggy toy box full of goodies, to include puzzle toys. There are toddler beds that I've converted to dog beds throughout the house for the cushy naps. I donot have kennels, but I have a playpen I leave open for those that prefer the safety of a kennel. I do have two dogs myself. Both are standard poodle females. One is 5 and one is 4. They are both very well trained and love to have playmates of any age, size or gender. My girls do eat a full raw diet, no need to worry about them trying to steal food from anyone else and they are always fed in a seperate area of the house. The girls are on a monthly heartworm that includes many other parasite preventatives. They are groomed weekly and kept up to date on all vaccines. I expect any dog I board to be up to date on vaccines. There is a local vet within 15 minutes and emergency vet within 45 minutes. **I will not watch unfixed males. This is due to my females not being fixed. I can watch females in heat and young puppies (young puppies cost a bit more due to the fact I will be training if they aren't potty trained).** **If your dog is a digger DO let me know in advance so I can set up the sand box!** I'm a stay at home college student. Animals are a life long love for me. Evenings are for cuddles and homework, while daytime is play time! I care for pets according to the owners specifications. Every pet has different needs to be met--from the high energy dogs to the elderly. I do whatever makes the pet happy and provides was of mind for the owner. I am happy to provide photos at any point during a visit !

About: Hello! My name is Lexi, and I have a lot of experience dealing with dogs. For about 7 years now, family and friends have relied on me to take care of their dogs. I have worked at an animal hospital as a kennel technician as well as been a dog bather. I have learned so much from those jobs and gained a lot of knowledge on how to care for them. Working at those jobs has also helped me learn about dog behaviors and how to properly deal with them. If you choose me to be your dog walker/sitter, I can promise your baby will be in great hands! I currently have a full time job, so I will set up my calendar around that to show my availability! I will try my best to work around my schedule for my clients At my client’s homes I always make sure the dog(s) I am caring for are comfortable and happy. I am great at following directions carefully when it comes to instructions that pet parents leave for me, since that was my main responsibility at my previous job as a kennel technician. I also make time to cuddle, play with, and exercise your digs so they are as happy as can be!

“Bridget is amazing. Our dog hates to stay anywhere without us. She wont eat. She just lays around and mopes. We planned a 10 day vacation and needed someone that knew how to take care of anxious dogs. We could not believe our luck when we found Bridget. She brought Shelly into her home and treated her like one of her own. She sent us updates and pictures daily. It felt like we dropped Shelly off at doggy camp. She was comfortable the first day there. She ate, played with the other dogs, went for walks, watched tv, and got lots oflove. It was such a relief! We will definitely be repeat clients.”
“Leslie is a wonderful sitter for our pet Brinkley. We have used her several times and Brinkley is always happy and well taken care of each and every time. I drive over 30 miles to get her service and I wouldn’t leave our pet Brinkley with anyone else.”
“We trust no one else with our boys! They are always so well taken care of and communication could not be better. We’ve booked many times and will continue to do so as long as they’ll have us!”
“Karen was great with our dogs Bella and Brandy! She was very friendly and responsive and sent us lots of updates and pictures during our vacation! We will definitely use Karen again for future trips!”
“Katie and her family were so amazing with our baby dog. She’s like a totally different pup! She doesn’t get upset in the crate, her bitting has dramatically dropped, and she’s much more claim throughout the day. I cannot thank her enough for taking ivy in on short notice and letting her be apart of her family. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Eloise was a great sitter. She communicated with me daily and sent me pictures, which relieved my anxiety so much! I will not hesitate to ask her to watch my dog again!”
“This was my first time leaving my dog with someone. I was so happy that Ollie was happy. I didn’t feel stressed out about her while I was gone. Jennifer communicated every day with me and sent pictures. I am great full to her and her husband for taking care of Ollie for me! I will definitely use them again, and recommend them to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter!”
About: Hi! I’m Victoria. I grew up surrounded by cats, and 6 years ago my husband and I adopted Harley, our sweet little dog who completely stole our hearts. I know how important it is to feel confident and comfortable when someone else is caring for your fur baby. I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give Harley. Whether your pet prefers playtime, cuddles, slow sniff-walks, or just gentle company, I’m here to match their needs and routine. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to send updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and happy at all times. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide regular walks, check-ins, playtime, and constant attention whenever needed. I prioritize safety and comfort in every home I care for. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keep environments clean and secure, and provide constant supervision during walks and visits.
“My dogs seem to have a great time. Loved the pictures, Alexis and her family took great care of my 2 pups they came home happy and healthy. We Will definitely use Alexis whenever she is available. Thank you very much.”
“Rachel was great with Kimble. He’s a big dog (160 lb English mastiff) and she took great care of him. It was so nice to be able to enjoy our vacation knowing that he was getting great care and was getting loved the way we would. We definitely will be using her again.”
“Mariah was very attentive to Bella's needs. Bella felt comfortable and fit right into Mariah's home as if was her own. Mariah communicated with us on a regular basis. She sent videos and Pictures to keep us informed. She was definitely a 5 star sitter!!!”
“I feel like Kyle struck the jackpot when we found Renae for boarding! It was easy to arrange pick up and drop off and we were able to meet up beforehand so that Kyle could meet Renae's two dogs. Renae kept me posted with pictures and updates about how Kyle was doing. I'm a new dog owner and Kyle is young, so I didn't know how he'd adjust to a 2+ week stay with someone else, but he had a great time and was lucky to be able to find a new playmate in Renae's younger dog. I highly recommend Renae!”
“Very satisfied with the care my dog received while we were away. Communication was quick and seamless before and during the stay. I would recommend anyone to her & will definitely be rebooking again in the future!”
“Ken and his family were awesome with our Sasha! Super easy to book.. actually the while process was super easy! Sasha’s happy she made some new friends.. and I’m happy I found our new ”go-to” sitter for our random weekend getaways!”
