“Diana is so kind and knowledgeable. My dogs were perfectly at home in her care. She gave us tons of photos, videos, and updates while we were gone and spoiled them with lots of walks. We will definitely book with her every time we travel from now on.”
“Simply said, Melissa Loves Dogs and treated our dog like her own! This was our first time booking with Melissa and she did not disappoint. She’s professional, consistent, and attentive to every detail. We were gone for 10 days and received updates with pictures everyday both morning and evening. Her 3 dogs are friendly, playful and make great companions for a visiting new member of the family. Her home is set up perfect for dogs to hang out, play and safely go outside with a totally fenced-in backyard. Thank you Melissa for everything you do and we look forward to our next adventure. We’ve already rebooked another week next month! ?”
“We have had a really bad experience in the past on river and we were really worried to try it again. We are so glad we did! We left our dog with Khanh for a night and she really put all our fears to rest. She sent us constant updates and pictures. She has every need of the dog well thought out. You can be assured your furry friend is in safe hands. Thankyou Khanh and I am looking forward to future visits!”
“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!!”
“From Sarah we got quick response, she sent pictures, she is very kind and did a great job taking care of Maggie. Maggie had a very good time with Sarah and her doggies. Definitely we would book with Sarah again.”
“Jocelyn did an absolutely amazing job taking care of our fur baby, Stetson, while we were out of town. It’s never easy leaving your dog behind, but she made the whole experience so much easier and stress-free. She kept us updated with tons of pictures and messages, which meant the world to us when we were really missing him. You can tell she genuinely cares and treats your pet like her own. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend Jocelyn to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive to watch their pup!”
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.
“I have been using Leslee as a sitter for the past year. She has been consistently excellent with her communication, responsiveness, and flexibility. She always made things worry free when I was out of town. My dog Leon gets excited every time we drive into her neighborhood! I would highly recommend Leslee as a sitter!”
“If I could give more stars I would! Chelsey and her family were great with Linus! She sent me pictures and updates daily. We had to leave town early due to bad weather and she was willing to accommodate with an early drop off! On pickup, she gave Linus a sweet little note with a bag of treats. How sweet! Linus whined when he left her house! Chelsey really went above and beyond and I felt so comfortable leaving my furry family member with her and her fam. Thanks Chelsey!”
“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!”
“Faith did an excellent job taking care of my two dogs! She gave frequent updates and provided many pictures of them having a fun time. She offered some job observations of their behaviors and provided constructive recommendations. I plan on utilizing her again for dog sitting services.”
“Merry and Tucker love Cato come to Kayla’s home. They out of the car and head directly for the front door. Merry even had a fury friend for the last visit. They played until exhausted. Great time for our high energy girl. Our old boy was able to get plenty of rest. Kayla always ensures Ricker gets her medication. Both come home happy, and relaxed!! Thank you again Kayla”
“Melissa was incredible and so easy to communicate with My dog got to play with her lovely puppy! And they both were tiring each other out! The yard was a bonus! Melissa sent updates regularly and kept up with my puppy Keanu Reeves! Will use again! She was amazing!”
“Second time that Jennifer watched Maggie, and no regrets at all, she is an amazing and understanding petsitter, I really can tell that Maggie is in good hands. The care and love to our puppy was absolutely wonderful.”
“Wonderful and so friendly! Wrigley felt very at home here, Hector made him feel comfortable and not alone. It was our first time trying this service and we are beyond amazed with Hector’s hospitality, constant care, and daily updates! He provided pictures through out the day, genuinely listened to us, and ask questions to better help him really understand Wrigley and his needs. Would definitely rebook no questions asked!”
“Highly recommend Emily for in home boarding. GusGus came home very happy after our week vacation. Emily was wonderful to work with and took excellent care of our boy!”
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. :)

“Erin was wonderful to have around our pets. She was friendly and personable, and it was obvious that both of our cats were comfortable around her. She also sends pictures of your pets, which makes the time away more manageable! Would thoroughly recommend.”
About: I’ve had cats my whole life I currently have a fifteen year old and an almost two year old kitty. I have also had a cat with special needs, diabetic who needed blood sugar checks and insulin injections. I am definitely a future “crazy cat lady”.
“Bridgette was really good taking care of Appa, she send me pictures of her every visit eventhough my cat was most of the time hiding or watching from the distance. She/he make sure that my cat has water, food and a clean potty. Highly recommended.”
“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.”
“Absolutely the best! Sara took such good care of my two cats throughout the holidays, enough to where my shy kitty even came out on her own within the week period. Sara was so responsive and kept me in the loop about my cats, along with catering to their special diets. I can't stress enough how wonderful she is - if you want someone who will take care of your pets like her own, look no further.”
“Carly watched my cat Raspy for a long weekend trip. My cat can definitely be picky on who he likes and he loved Carly! She did a great job and will definitely be using her in the future to watch Raspy!”
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.
About: Hi!! My name is Lauren and I would love to take care of, walk, feed, or just love on your pets (: I currently have a 6 year old pitty mix and a 15 year old chow mix and they are my pride and joy! Growing up I had a family pug, so I have experience with small and large dogs! I currently am open during the week from 6am - 6pm to take care of whatever your needs might be for you and your pets! I plan to only except jobs that will be in the pets owners home, so I would need to know what is best for your home and your neighborhood. As well as how your pet acts / any needs they may have.
“Heather went above and beyond to make sure our anxious kitty was taken care of. He is not to keen on strangers, but Heather respected his boundaries and worked hard to gain his trust, even if our Chowder was spicy to her at times. We would definitely book Heather again.”
“Outstanding! Kelsey did such an amazing job with our two cats. She went above and beyond. She sent numerous photos and updates and her work put us at ease the entire time we were on our trip. We highly recommend her!”
About: I am currently getting my bachelor's in animal behavior and care. I've had many bteeds of dog from small to large as well as cats. I love all breeds and I am open minded to all animals. Even the scaly ones. I have 3 cats and a dog with ptsd from their previous owner. I work but am more then able to adjust my schedule in order to pet sit. I will still be sure they are fed properly, played with, and taken out as needed. I will ensure your pet is fed, walked, taken out and generally well looked after with lots of playtime. I can work with their dietary schedules and needs as well as their special care.

She gives detailed updates of how the kitties are doing and great pictures too! I would absolutely recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”

“Bubs had a great time with Khanh! She was able to accommodate his need to physically be away from other dogs because he’s not quite old enough to get all his vaccines. He was always excited to get to daycare in the morning! She was also willing to work with me and my crazy work schedule - we’ve already booked more time with her. I trust her with my puppy. 🤗”

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!
“Evee had an absolutely amazing time! Sami sent updates everyday and included pictures, I loved knowing my girl was well taken care of she got to go to the park, had lots of cuddles, and was visibly excited to see sami by day 3, would definitely book again and recommend to anyone!”

We are used to variety of animals,,, cats, dogs, chickens, rabbits, etc..We can accommodate whatever care and discipline you desire. It's critical for us to be consistent with you
About: Check out my many reviews! I had a pug for 16 years. Ive cared for hundreds of dogs, cats, rabbits and even a few others through Rover. I’ve cared for family members dogs. I love taking them on walks and playing, pets and cuddles. I’d be happy to care for your little buddy. I am pretty flexible and happy to do walks and visits or host dogs at my house. I have a great area to walk dogs, a big fenced in yard, a big open house and several dog parks real close by if they like the interaction. I love all kinds of animals. I grew up around all kinds of animals out in the country. So whatever your needs are I should be able to handle it. I can promise you your pet will get the same great care as my spoiled pug! If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out. I can make adjustments if visits are needed during work hours. Work a few miles from home. I love being around all pets and will treat yours as they were my own. I have a great environment with tons of experience. A fenced in yard for them to play a big house lots of toys and beds
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: 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.
“Leti was great! She was quick to respond to my booking request, was friendly, flexible, and had good communication overall. My dog had so much fun playing with Leti’s dogs and running around in her spacious backyard. I really appreciated her hospitality towards my dog and her keeping me updated while she was taking care of him. I felt confident that he was in good hands. Thanks again Leti! ?”
About: Hello, My name is Lerin, I am a professional dog groomer/handler of 10 years. I have experience with dogs ranging from puppies to Geriatric babies. I am quite experienced with dogs with behavioral issues. If our schedules work out and I can help you help your kiddo I’m more than happy to. I work full time as a dog groomer. So my schedule for drop in’s/walks. Looks like a walk in the AM before work. So anytime guaranteed before 8:30 and anytime guaranteed after 4:30. 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.
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: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I could walk. Pets have always been an addition in my family. I have also pet sat for friends and family when they have needed. To me, pets are family and I have always taken care of them like that. When I'm trusted to take care of someones pet, I treat them like their baby. We have 3.5 acres of farm and woodland. 1 acres is wooded and we have a trail and creek to play in. If things get too messy, we can always rinse off in the hose. I have a lead out back, but if your dog doesn't need it great! If your dog requires a little more, I have a fenced in area behind the barn that we can venture to as well. I live on a private drive, so not a lot of traffic and its nice and peaceful. I work 8-4 Monday through Friday. I live 20 minutes away and usually come home on my lunch break at 12 to let my dogs out and to let them run and play. I wake up early to take care of my chickens and ducks and let my dogs run around for about 30 minutes outside. With other dogs, we might wake up a little earlier and go on a trail or just walk up and down the road(.5miles) maybe more if needed. We then come inside and eat and drink and they are usually ready to go back to bed by the time I leave for work. On my days off we are outside constantly. If your dog is an introvert or loves ac, we do also let our dogs on the furniture for extra lounging. 🤣 At night we do a bit more outside since we make our rounds to make sure the birds are safe and fed and maybe another walk in the woods. Before bed, we do tick checks just in case! I care for all pets like my own and all pets have the same freedoms as my fur babies(unless specified so your doggo doesn't come home with any habits you don't want them to have). I have blankets on my couches and dog beds all over the house.
About: I have grown up with pets my whole life. I own 3 pups right now who love to play and would love any other pets to play with! Available 7 days a week, super flexible and humble. I’m accommodating and willing to work with any busy schedule. My contact will be available 9am-8pm I live in an apartment with no fenced in yard but I live next to Margaret Pace Park which has a small or large dog park and a long walking trail for your fur babies.

“Our puppies love Glen. Because they’ve been walking with him on a regular basis, their muscles are strong and they walk around with a newfound confidence. They have been able to walk farther and farther with each subsequent walk, which makes all of us happy.”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of hands on experience caring for pups of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I currently have two amazing dogs of my own. Khloe is a resilient 11 year old that has overcome major medical challenges, including a leg amputation and daily medication routines, and Oakley is an energetic 2 year old who keeps life exciting! Because of my own dogs, I’m no stranger to giving medication (including injections), working with limited mobility or vision, and supporting senior pets with the extra care they need. Whether your dog is a bouncing puppy or a gentle senior, I’ll treat them like family with playtime and plenty of belly rubs. I’d love to help care for your furry friend while you’re away! I work second shift, so I’m available in the mornings and early afternoons to care for your pet! I also live very close to work and am able to run home on breaks to see my dogs. In my home, dogs are treated like part of the family. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I make sure every dog gets the exercise and fresh air they need with daily walks, just like I do with my own pups. For dogs with limited mobility or who tire easily, I even have a wagon that I use to wheel them around so they can still enjoy the outdoors safely and comfortably, something I do often for my senior, three-legged dog. Inside my home, I provide a calm, structured environment. I have two crates available and can accommodate both crate trained dogs and those who prefer to free roam. I always take the time to understand each dog’s routine and personality so I can tailor their care, whether that’s sticking to a medication schedule, providing quiet time, or making sure they have plenty of play and affection. In a client’s home, I aim to follow your routines as closely as possible to keep your pup comfortable and stress free while you’re away. My top priority is always the safety, happiness, and well-being of your dog.
“Katie is WONDERFUL!! Wags, my overweight beagle (who lets me live there with my cat Top!) is already showing signs of having more energy. When I come home, he is bouncing up and down to meet me. It has been a while since he had this energy; I know it’s ALL because of Katie walking Wags! Besides this, Wag’s loves Katie and didn’t give me a second look when she came for him!!!♥️♥️”
“Keyonnah is so nice and is very responsive to my last minute requests. I’ll be having foot surgery soon and will be using her as my dog walker during recovery. Rina loves her!!!”

We have a fenced in back yard, toys, love, and attention. Each animal deserves respect, dedication, and love to help make them feel safe always.

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 am a 4th grade teacher with summers off. I have a passion for walking and dogs. So this is perfect for me! I walk my 90 lb chocolate lab (quite energetic and happy) miles everyday around the neighborhood and hiking trails. He is a pretty reactive dog (all love) so I am skilled in knowing what a dog needs and how they are reacting to the external variables on a walk, and how to react to that. I would love to meet you and your animal best friend! I have the summer off, so I am available this summer. Once school gets back in session, weekend care would also be something I am interested in. I am mainly available for dog walking and/or taking care of your animal in your home. I have helped raise 3 puppies (now big dogs) throughout the past 8 years. I am very well aware of what the animal may need and how to react to that.
About: Hello! Thanks for clicking on me! I have a wealth of knowledge on dog behavior, training, and needs. I have two dogs of my own, Billy and Bruno. I am their primary owner and caretaker, and I have learned so much from them. I have been caring for family dogs for as long as I can remember. Bruno was a stray before I adopted him and I have learned a lot about socialization, house training, and leash training. I will care for your pet like it is my own. I am a middle school ELA teacher with open availability all summer long. I have reliable transportation and can transport your pet in my car if needed. If caring for pets inside of your home, I will ensure that all locks are secured when I exit the home and that all pets are properly cared for as instructed. I have experience using ADT and Simplisafe systems.
About: I have experience administering all kinds of medication to all ages of dogs. I love meeting your older dogs and have experience helping them navigate stairs and the home if necessary. I am patient and if your dog needs extra accommodation I am happy to provide assistance. I am currently a college student on break for the summer so my schedule is incredibly flexible. I am available for early mornings, late nights, and everything in between. I understand it can be nerve racking trusting someone with your pet, but I am extremely communicative and will keep you updated as frequently as you wish. I have pet sat for multiple families who have always returned to tidy homes and happy pets. As someone who has had the privilege of loving many animals, big and small (snakes, lizards, geckos, cat, hamsters), I understand the importance of your pet.
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 am a veterinary student with 8 years of animal experience! I am trained to look for signs of discomfort or pain in pets! I am also trained to administer medications both orally and through injections if your pet requires any of those types of treatment! I am currently working part time and have very flexible hours! I am willing to work around schedules and will openly communicate about the needs of your pet! I currently do not have a dog at my house as my sweet older baby has recently passed, however I have a fenced in backyard and a quiet neighborhood that is good for walks and exercise outside!
About: I have watched dogs for over six years now and have sat with all sizes and ages of dogs!! Baths, walks, feedings, medicine, etc. I have done it all. I love all animals though and will gladly extend my services to cats or any other pets :) My work schedule can be confusing, but I am happy to help out when I am available! I work Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday days and nights but could drop in between 5pm-7pm. Wednesdays I am available all day until 5pm! I am free on weekends unless my calendar says I’m gone. Just reach out and I’ll do my best to make your needs work for me :) I always make sure to get them exercise and companionship while I am there! I am happy to help out with any related tasks and love spending time with your pets.
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 is so kind and knowledgeable. My dogs were perfectly at home in her care. She gave us tons of photos, videos, and updates while we were gone and spoiled them with lots of walks. We will definitely book with her every time we travel from now on.”
“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!!”
“From Sarah we got quick response, she sent pictures, she is very kind and did a great job taking care of Maggie. Maggie had a very good time with Sarah and her doggies. Definitely we would book with Sarah again.”
“Jocelyn did an absolutely amazing job taking care of our fur baby, Stetson, while we were out of town. It’s never easy leaving your dog behind, but she made the whole experience so much easier and stress-free. She kept us updated with tons of pictures and messages, which meant the world to us when we were really missing him. You can tell she genuinely cares and treats your pet like her own. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend Jocelyn to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive to watch their pup!”
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.
“If I could give more stars I would! Chelsey and her family were great with Linus! She sent me pictures and updates daily. We had to leave town early due to bad weather and she was willing to accommodate with an early drop off! On pickup, she gave Linus a sweet little note with a bag of treats. How sweet! Linus whined when he left her house! Chelsey really went above and beyond and I felt so comfortable leaving my furry family member with her and her fam. Thanks Chelsey!”
“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!”
“Faith did an excellent job taking care of my two dogs! She gave frequent updates and provided many pictures of them having a fun time. She offered some job observations of their behaviors and provided constructive recommendations. I plan on utilizing her again for dog sitting services.”
“Merry and Tucker love Cato come to Kayla’s home. They out of the car and head directly for the front door. Merry even had a fury friend for the last visit. They played until exhausted. Great time for our high energy girl. Our old boy was able to get plenty of rest. Kayla always ensures Ricker gets her medication. Both come home happy, and relaxed!! Thank you again Kayla”

“Wonderful and so friendly! Wrigley felt very at home here, Hector made him feel comfortable and not alone. It was our first time trying this service and we are beyond amazed with Hector’s hospitality, constant care, and daily updates! He provided pictures through out the day, genuinely listened to us, and ask questions to better help him really understand Wrigley and his needs. Would definitely rebook no questions asked!”
“Becky and Joe were great! Becky kept us updated throughout Franklin’s stay and was always willing to send photos! Their house is exceptionally dog friendly with toys, a backyard, and a crate if need be. Franklin loved snuggling, spending time outside, and playing with their other two goldens!”
“I'm so lucky to have found someone that loves my dog the way I love my dog. Birdie made quick friends with Bailey the Pug, and Daniel. Birdie had a great time staying the week and we'll be using Dan again!”
