Diana took great care of Maggie. And she was willing to work with me when I extended my vacation. Loved the pictures she sent to ease my mind about leaving Maggie for eight days! I will definitely ask for her help again!

Khanh is definitely a 5 star dog sitter. She did everything and more to make Sammy comfortable. I was totally taken away with her love and caring for my best buddy. She communicated with me almost daily during the stay and provided pictures of Sammy's activities. She provided medical care for Sammy that had been prescribed by my Veterinarian. She is the most loving, caring person- Thanks a million Khanh Darold Irvine

As a first-time Rover user and a nervous dog mom, I was hesitant to leave Banjo with anyone, especially since we just adopted him from a shelter. However, Jenelle completely exceeded my expectations. She was incredibly thoughtful and even suggested a meet-and-greet before the stay to make sure Banjo would be comfortable. She showed such patience and care with him, especially since he’s a shy and nervous dog. Throughout our trip, Jenelle kept us updated with regular photos and videos, which really helped ease my worries. Banjo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly had the best time with Jenelle and her own dogs. I think he was a little upset that we were taking him home because he had so much fun!! We’re so grateful for her wonderful care and will absolutely be leaving Banjo with her for all our future trips. Highly recommend!!

About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely treat pets as members of the family, not just animals I’m watching. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, including shy or nervous dogs who need extra patience to build trust. I’m attentive to details, follow routines closely, and understand how important consistency is for a pet’s comfort and well-being. Because I care for my own dogs daily, I’m comfortable recognizing changes in behavior, appetite, or energy levels and communicating concerns promptly. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also respecting each pet’s individual needs and boundaries. My goal is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while their owners are away, and for owners to have peace of mind knowing their pets are receiving personalized care. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I have two dogs, so I’m used to feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, monitoring behavior, and making sure they get plenty of attention throughout the day. I also stay on top of things like cleaning up after them, maintaining their routine, and watching for any signs that something might be off. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so fitting pet care into my day feels very natural. In my home, pets are treated like family. I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, exercise, and playtime. I provide a safe, clean, and supervised environment where pets receive plenty of attention and affection throughout the day. I closely monitor their behavior, appetite, and energy levels and will follow any instructions regarding medications, dietary needs, or special care. My goal is to make pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved while they are in my care.

Our 8 month old active puppy Anna stayed with Rachelle for 11 days and had a great time! Rachelle even took her to our vet because of a cough she developed right before we left and administered the meds needed to clear her infection. We received constant communication and pictures of Anna during our vacation to ease our minds. She loves dogs and it shows! We would not hesitate to leave Anna with Rachelle again!

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have experience taking care of my own dogs every day. I have two friendly dogs, Bailey (a Husky/Aussie mix) and Berkley (a Bernedoodle), so I’m used to dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I know every dog is different, so I’ll follow your routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog wants to play, go for a walk, or just relax and get some attention. I’m currently a part-time college student and also DoorDash for extra income, which gives me a flexible schedule. I’m available most weekdays starting at noon or earlier, and I can often accommodate weekend requests as well. I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and care while they’re with me. I’ll always communicate with you and send updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. pet safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and get exercise. I also have two friendly dogs, Bailey (a Husky/Australian Shepherd mix) and Berkley (a Bernedoodle), who love meeting and playing with other dogs. If your dog prefers their own space or needs a slower introduction, I’m happy to keep them separated to ensure everyone stays comfortable and safe. I’ll treat your pet like they’re part of my own family! I’ll follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, medications, routines, or special care. :)

Keri has been the best pet sitter for my cat, Barney 🙂. He is always happy and healthy when I return. Keri is always timely and communicates well. I am never worried about Barney while she is taking care of him. She has always made sure he has had the best care, even when he has needed medicine or special attention due to a medical condition he has had. Unfortunately, we are moving, and Keri won't be able to watch him anymore. I know we will miss her, and Barney will miss getting to see his friend on the weekends!

About: Hi! Hablo inglés y español. I work part time and spend the rest of the time adventuring with my toddler. I'm looking to spend time with and care for dogs, and as a former dog owner I know how hard it can be to find a good sitter. After I spent 3 years caring for a dog with a chronic illness, I am accustomed to all sorts of needs and am happy to accommodate them. I have also lived with and cared for a senior dog and I can work with dogs of all ages. I will only take one dog at a time, unless they are from the same family. I have a small yard and good neighborhood for walks, so can be active with your dog or let them spend the day sitting on my lap! Let me know if you have any questions! I work part time in the community. Since I make my own schedule, I can be flexible to accommodate your dog’s needs! My toddler also loves dogs. I have a yard and a home with plenty of space for dogs to roam. Dogs will be monitored at all times and all medicines, cleaning supplies, etc. are safely stored. If your dog uses a crate, that is also welcome but not necessary. I will only take one dog at a time.

About: Hi, I’m Rina! I have hands-on experience caring for cats with all kinds of personalities—from playful and curious to shy and independent. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, playtime, brushing, and giving cats the space they need to feel safe and relaxed. I understand that cats thrive on routine and familiarity, so I follow care instructions closely and pay attention to their individual cues. Whether your cat loves interactive play or quiet companionship, I make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you’re away.

I cannot thank THEODORE enough. I had several interviews and he stood out strongly. I am so grateful to have found him, he was the perfect solution to being able to leave my house & kitty for a 15 trip to Antarctica. This was my first ever housesit experience from Theodore, but from the very beginning he made me feel so comfortable & I knew Sabbat would be in safe in his hands. Theodore kept in contact throughout my trip with photos and updates of Sabbat which I appreciated and put my mind at ease. He respected my home and when I returned to a neat and tidy house, a well-cared for kitty, clean dishes, and a clean countertop, I was very happy indeed. Trustworthy, reliable, friendly, and genuine, Theodore went above & beyond and I hope to welcome him back again soon. I can now safely plan other trips knowing that my Sabbat will be well taken care of. I know my kitty loved him by the photos and the looks Theodore captured and relayed. Absolutely the best, I will be rebooking soon.

About: I’ve always loved animals and always treated other peoples pets as if they were mine. I’ve always felt guilty if I didn’t have time to give as much time and attention to a pet as I should. I’m available quite often. I am most available all day Monday, Tuesday, and Saturday. But still available sometimes on other days. I take some online courses and help my dad at his workshop so my schedule is relatively flexible. I live in a Townhouse so I don’t have a yard. But my cat loves it when I open the window with the screen so he can look outside. My neighborhood is pet friendly for dog walks. And I have a water fountain designed for pets.

If the distance to your home is within a reasonable distance from my job I can typically do a walk within my shift as well. Mondays and Tuesday’s I’m off all day and can come at any time. I treat every animals as if they are my own. Which I do see my pet families/clients as an extension of mine. They are apart of my life and I give care that brings them back. For that I can’t be more grateful.

We arrived and Khanh was ready to take on Gracie Mae. We set up her things in a back room as she had another bigger dog in the front, made us feel safe. Gracie Mae was fed and watered. When I arrived all of Gracie Mae items were packed up and ready to go. Gracie Mae must of had a fun time, she was sleepy and took a rest on the way home. Thank you Khanh.

About: My friends and family call me the pet whisperer. Or, "even your pets listen to you" I have a great understanding of animals, and a natural love and care for their well being. I began babysitting and pet sitting at age 11, including horses! Have always been a caretaker type, including being a full time nanny, also taking care of their animals-dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, guinea pigs. Available on weekends and partial Mon and Fridays. Flexible, long term, or short term last minute welcome. Home most of the time on the weekends except for short errands, as our house is centrally located, close to shopping, yet not directly on a busy street. Like a relaxing vacation for your loved one while you are away. Our pets are part of the family and enjoy many benefits of our house. Plenty of playing and lounging room for all! We have a living room, rec room and screened in porch, for warmer weather, all with dog friendly furniture and lots of windows for plenty of comfy napping. lounging, squirrel watching...with a dog entry door to the large fenced in yard and deck through the kitchen. My musically talented teenager will play lots of nice music on his piano and ukulele as well as run around the yard with the dogs, and there is a park within walking distance from our house if more exploration is desired! We have one chocolate lab who is very friendly and social, and loves company!

About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely treat pets as members of the family, not just animals I’m watching. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, including shy or nervous dogs who need extra patience to build trust. I’m attentive to details, follow routines closely, and understand how important consistency is for a pet’s comfort and well-being. Because I care for my own dogs daily, I’m comfortable recognizing changes in behavior, appetite, or energy levels and communicating concerns promptly. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also respecting each pet’s individual needs and boundaries. My goal is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while their owners are away, and for owners to have peace of mind knowing their pets are receiving personalized care. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I have two dogs, so I’m used to feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, monitoring behavior, and making sure they get plenty of attention throughout the day. I also stay on top of things like cleaning up after them, maintaining their routine, and watching for any signs that something might be off. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so fitting pet care into my day feels very natural. In my home, pets are treated like family. I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, exercise, and playtime. I provide a safe, clean, and supervised environment where pets receive plenty of attention and affection throughout the day. I closely monitor their behavior, appetite, and energy levels and will follow any instructions regarding medications, dietary needs, or special care. My goal is to make pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved while they are in my care.

About: Hi! My name is Stephanie, and my husband, three kids (3, 7, and 10) and I are so excited to love your dog while you’re away! A Roof for Ruffs is the brainchild of our 10yo daughter. We are a foster family for a local dog rescue organization where we take in one or two dogs at a time until they can find their forever homes. We’re having so much fun with fostering that our sweet girl suggested we take on paying clients between our fosters, and donate some of the proceeds to the same local dog rescue organization. ♥️ I’ve owned dogs my whole life. Between fostering, petsitting for family, neighbors and friends, and caring for my own pups, I have experience with all ages—from very young puppies to seniors and everything in between; small and large breeds; well-behaved and questionable; medical cases, and even the occasional cat. 😱 Your dog’s vacay siblings for their stay will include a 2yo female Great pyr/St. Bernard rescue pup, and two 4yo guinea pigs. We are so very excited to meet your dog, and to treat them like family for their stay. My husband works full time, but I am a freelance writer with flexible hours working from home while caring for our three kids. In other words: your pup won’t be left alone often! 😆 **Please note: all pets must have proof of updated vaccines and be okay with kids (they will be loved on and spoiled by our kiddos while they’re here!) I am home daily with my kids, so lots of potty breaks and playtime is possible throughout the day. We are available most weekdays or weekends unless blocked while we have a foster or for travel. We have a 4-foot aluminum fence in the backyard and live on a public park with a walking trail for easy exercise options. We have extra dog crates here if your pup is crate-trained or feel free to bring your own.

About: Finding the right sitter matters — especially when your dog needs more than just a walk and a bowl refill. That’s where I come in. I have over 15 years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. From energetic puppies to senior dogs and behaviorally challenging cases, I’ve cared for and handled dogs with a wide range of needs. My background includes extensive volunteer work at animal shelters, where I gained valuable experience reading canine body language, managing stress, and working safely with dogs that require extra patience and structure. In 2021, I earned my Certified Dog Trainer credential through Animal Behavior College, and I continue my education through Leerburg University, focusing on canine behavior, handling, and communication. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach — every dog is different, and I tailor my care to what helps your dog feel safe, calm, and confident. If you’ve been told your dog is “too difficult” or “too much” for most sitters, I encourage you to reach out. I have experience with reactive, anxious, high-drive, and medically complex dogs, including administering medications and injections when needed. My goal is not just to watch your dog, but to advocate for them while you’re away. For safety and individualized care, I only accept one family of dogs at a time. This allows me to focus fully on your dog’s routine, comfort, and well-being — no overcrowding, no chaos. I’d love to schedule a meet & greet so we can make sure it’s a great fit for everyone. You’ll leave knowing your dog is in capable, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring hands. Thanks for stopping by my profile — I look forward to meeting you and your best friend soon. I'm hoping to make canine boarding/training my new job. I still work full time in a hybrid remote role. I will only accept boarding reservations where I know I will be home. I prefer to exercise dogs by walking them, but will do anything to keep your friends on their own routine. Anything you can share with me about your dogs preferred routine will help me keep their schedule as normal as possible.

About: I have had my own dogs my whole life. Since being married in 1994 we have had 2-3 dogs at a time. We currently have two sweet dogs. One is a toy Berniedoodle and the other is a lab/bordercollie. I am the one in our family that does the puppy training. I am a retired school teacher. I am home most days unless I have errands to run. I love to take our dogs for walks. I have two friendly dogs. One of our dogs is very playful. The other is shy at first but warms up. They are crate trained at night. We have a dog door so our dogs go in and out all day. We have an extra crate if needed. Our dogs are allowed on the furniture for snuggles.

About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have experience with daily walks, bathing, brushing, enrichment play, and maintaining consistent routines. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I adapt my care to meet their individual needs — whether they’re energetic, shy, young, or senior. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and dependable environment you can trust. I am a stay at home mom and my husband works from home Monday through Friday, allowing us to provide consistent supervision and care throughout the week. We also have a 10-month-old baby in our home, so we maintain a calm, structured environment. Pets staying with us should be comfortable around infants and gentle in nature. Your pet will receive regular potty breaks, attention, and companionship throughout the day. We have a fenced in yard for outdoor time. All outdoor time is fully supervised. We provide frequent potty breaks and maintain a calm, structured, pet-friendly home. Safety is our top priority, and we treat every pet like part of our family. We’re happy to provide updates and photos during their stay for your peace of mind. 🐾Booking & Care Details🐾 Boarding is based on 24-hour care beginning at your scheduled drop-off time. Rover automatically applies extended care charges for late pick-ups beyond that window, so accurate timing is important when booking. Holiday rates apply to major travel dates. Puppies and additional dogs are charged at adjusted rates due to the increased supervision required. For longer stays or work-travel bookings, I’m happy to discuss customized arrangements. 🐾 Meet & Greet Policy🐾 A meet and greet is required for all new clients prior to confirming a boarding stay. This ensures your dog is comfortable in our home environment and is a safe fit around children and other animals. Meet and greets allow us to review routines, temperament, and expectations so your pet’s stay is smooth and stress-free.

About: Hi! My name is Rina, and I’ve always had a genuine love for animals. I have hands-on experience caring for pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing lots of attention and affection. I’m comfortable following specific care instructions, sticking to routines, and making sure pets feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their needs, energy levels, and comfort cues. Whether it’s an energetic walk, a calm cuddle session, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m able to plan my schedule around feedings, walks, drop-in visits, and quality time, making sure each pet gets the attention they need. I’m reliable with timing, flexible when plans change, and happy to accommodate specific routines. Whether it’s quick check-ins or longer visits, I make pet care a priority and make sure every visit is calm, consistent, and stress-free. When caring for pets in my home or theirs, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding, medication, and care instructions closely, provide plenty of attention and enrichment, and make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their environment. I respect each pet’s personality—whether they’re playful, shy, or independent—and adjust my care to meet their needs. Cleanliness, safety, and communication are always priorities, and I make sure owners feel confident and updated while they’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little, house sitting for neighbors when I was in high school. I worked at a vet clinic that offers doggy daycare and boarding. I know how to administer medication to dogs of all ages and temperaments. I can navigate nervousness in your pup, and help them feel comfortable when you aren’t home. I also have two dogs of my own, both high energy breeds, so I understand the need to exercise your beloved pets and make sure they have proper mental and physical stimulation. Your dog or cat deserves the love you give them everyday, even when you’re away from home; and I intend to give them that same love when I take care of them. I work fully remotely so I am available to assist almost any day of the week and really anytime, with a preference for middays and evenings. Even if I don’t have my availability listed for that day, please reach out and I will always try my best to accommodate! For my own dog, I have him crate trained so he don’t get into anything dangerous while I am gone. As for others animals I make sure they have constant access to fresh water, that their schedule is met, meaning consistent potty breaks, feedings ie. (breakfast, lunch, dinner) and playtimes. Finley is leash reactive, so having experience in that would be beneficial if your pup isn’t as easy of a walker if you’d like them to be.

About: I had dogs my whole childhood, and have had cats in adulthood. As a kid, I loved caring for and training our dogs, both basic commands and some fun tricks! I was responsible for letting them out when they needed, feeding them on time, playing with them, and taking them on walks. I wanted to be a dog trainer for years, and had a training manual I would study to know all the right actions and reactions for different situations and behaviors. I can't say I remember many specifics for training, but I definitely have plenty experience in basic care and play. As of right now, I am available all day on Sundays, and until 2pm all other days— perfect for midday walks or drop-ins while you're at work! I can provide basic care for both cats and dogs in their homes. I will feed, play, cuddle, walk, and even clean up after if necessary.

About: I have always loved dogs! I have lots of time and energy to play with all kinds of dogs.I love to be outdoors, and love to go hiking especially with a cute 4 legged companion. I play many sports, and I love to throw the ball around! So I have no problem playing fetch for long periods of time. I am available 7 days a week. I will give each dog love and affection! I have had dogs all of my life, and know they hold an irreplaceable spot in our hearts. I have always been the go to pet sitter for my whole family, and I have been doing it since I was about 8 years old. I have experience bathing, blow drying, and brushing dogs hair. My dream job would be to walk, play, and cuddle dogs all day. I just moved to Peoria, so me and my dog Jimmy spend lots of our time checking out new spots on all trails, and going to new parks for walkies! I love walking and being outdoors. I never skip a walk no matter the weather so exercise and sniffs will be a daily routine! Great at following instructions for your dogs needs. I will always treat your pup like it’s my own. I want owners and dogs to have the best time!

Diana took great care of Maggie. And she was willing to work with me when I extended my vacation. Loved the pictures she sent to ease my mind about leaving Maggie for eight days! I will definitely ask for her help again!

Sarah was a great dog sitter. She was easy to work with and my dog loved being there. She sent photos and let me know how things were going while we were away. I highly recommend her for your dog sitting needs.

As a first-time Rover user and a nervous dog mom, I was hesitant to leave Banjo with anyone, especially since we just adopted him from a shelter. However, Jenelle completely exceeded my expectations. She was incredibly thoughtful and even suggested a meet-and-greet before the stay to make sure Banjo would be comfortable. She showed such patience and care with him, especially since he’s a shy and nervous dog. Throughout our trip, Jenelle kept us updated with regular photos and videos, which really helped ease my worries. Banjo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly had the best time with Jenelle and her own dogs. I think he was a little upset that we were taking him home because he had so much fun!! We’re so grateful for her wonderful care and will absolutely be leaving Banjo with her for all our future trips. Highly recommend!!

About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely treat pets as members of the family, not just animals I’m watching. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, including shy or nervous dogs who need extra patience to build trust. I’m attentive to details, follow routines closely, and understand how important consistency is for a pet’s comfort and well-being. Because I care for my own dogs daily, I’m comfortable recognizing changes in behavior, appetite, or energy levels and communicating concerns promptly. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also respecting each pet’s individual needs and boundaries. My goal is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while their owners are away, and for owners to have peace of mind knowing their pets are receiving personalized care. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I have two dogs, so I’m used to feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, monitoring behavior, and making sure they get plenty of attention throughout the day. I also stay on top of things like cleaning up after them, maintaining their routine, and watching for any signs that something might be off. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so fitting pet care into my day feels very natural. In my home, pets are treated like family. I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, exercise, and playtime. I provide a safe, clean, and supervised environment where pets receive plenty of attention and affection throughout the day. I closely monitor their behavior, appetite, and energy levels and will follow any instructions regarding medications, dietary needs, or special care. My goal is to make pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved while they are in my care.

Our 8 month old active puppy Anna stayed with Rachelle for 11 days and had a great time! Rachelle even took her to our vet because of a cough she developed right before we left and administered the meds needed to clear her infection. We received constant communication and pictures of Anna during our vacation to ease our minds. She loves dogs and it shows! We would not hesitate to leave Anna with Rachelle again!

Hector was very responsive and kind! Our girls (2 big doggos) seemed ever comfortable and happy with him. He did his best to soothe them after many transitions for them all at once. He was also flexible when we changed dates and asked for different drop off times. He also sent me updates which was very helpful!! Thank you, Hector!

Treated our Marshall like family. She was attentive to his needs and introduced him slowly to other pets. She Spent the first night cuddling him on the couch. Then he spent the remainder of his time cuddling with her in her bed. She sent so many updates, videos, and pictures. Marshall seemed to enjoy his time with Madison Alot. He even gave her a goodbye kiss 💗. Best experience ever!!! Definitely recommend Madison to anyone and we definitely will look to book her again in the future if needed.
