Deanne kept all three of our dogs when we were out of town for four days. She kept us informed how they were doing and sent pictures so we could see them and they had all settled in well with her crew. So glad we found her in Rover!

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

Jill and her family welcomed Bailey into their home and treated him as their own. They were attentive to his needs as a senior dog, including giving oral medicine. I could tell he was well brushed and cared for when I picked him up. Her large yard was perfect for him. Jill had clearly gotten attached to him. She was always very responsive whenever I texted. I would book with Jill again.

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

I highly recommend Kaitlyn!! I have 2 big boys 1 is a Doberman and the other is a golden mix. They fight if their in the same room. So was going to have Kaitlyn watch just one of them. When I went to do a meet and greet with my golden. We got to talking and she said she would be willing to take both. She was amazing! I didnt have to worry all weekend long about them because she would send me updates with happy pictures every day. They always looked so happy with all the walks and belly rubs. Highly recommend! I will definitely be going back to her and dropping my other doggie daycare even with a 15 minute extra drive.

Very happy with your service Jessica! Macie wears a special tracking collar so we don't ever lose her. But we can see she must have had good walks and play time with 30k steps the first day she 31k the 2nd day. The only other time we boarded her was at a professional kennel where she had a max of 800 steps for one day. So huge difference. Thank you! The pics were greatly appreciated as well! Would definitely recommend you.

Olivia was absolutely wonderful while we were away! She dropped in twice to let our dogs out, feed them, and make sure they were well cared for. She treated our home with so much respect and care, truly like it was her own. One of our favorite parts was all the beautiful pictures she took of the dogs while we were gone, it gave us so much peace of mind and made us smile seeing how happy and comfortable they were. You can really tell she genuinely cares about animals.

About: My name is Anna, I’m a mom of two and lifelong animal lover. Have experience caring for dogs of all age, size, breed. All animals have very different personalities and needs. Experience with elderly, special needs, aggressive, anxious, and medication administration. I understand how crazy busy life can get and sometimes you need a little help at home, that’s where I come in! At work and thinking of your pup? I’ll check in and let you know how thier day is going, including a picture/video of how happy they are! Going on vacation? I’ll make sure your dog gets the attention they crave. Love and care is what I can provide, just let me know how I can help! I also offer nail trims and bathing/grooming services. All nice services to add on to drop in visits, that way you come back from vacation or a long day of work to a clean and happy pet. Feel free to ask me questions and fill me in on how your family is in need of assistance! My schedule is mostly open. Just quick trips for school drop offs, which if your pup likes car rides they are welcome to come! I work from home. I respect privacy and preference. I understand how particular animals can be and will always follow the owners lead on what to do/not to do. I also never post anything on social media unless I get your approval ahead of time.

About: I focus on building trust so pets feel safe and comfortable. I have experience with puppies (basic training and routines) and senior dogs (gentle care, patience, and medication support). Every pet is treated like family. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine since I work from home. I’m available throughout the day for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship, so pets get consistent attention and care rather than being left alone. I create a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment, whether in my home or the client’s. I supervise pets closely, follow their routines, and ensure they have fresh water, proper meals, and plenty of attention. I focus on building trust, reducing stress, and making sure every pet feels comfortable and secure.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I have also had a small private pet/house sitting business for the past 12 years. I have a lot of experience feeding pets with strict/special diets using oils, powders, crushed up supplements etc. and administering medicine including insulin injections. I’ve cared for dogs with disabilities and senior pets and puppies too. I love playing, walking, and just hanging out with them and giving lots of cuddles. I am a Nanny during the week, but have a somewhat flexible schedule. I generally can work the pet sitting routine into my work schedule so they are always well cared for and get plenty of attention. For boarding, my husband is home during the day and can take great care of your pets too. I am available to drop in or walk early mornings, evenings and Friday, Saturday, and Sunday’s. Pet sitting in your home - I basically “move in” for the time you are away. I follow your routine and house rules and spend most of my time in your home making sure your pets needs are met. This is especially good if there are separation anxiety issues. Boarding - I provide all loving care in my home making sure pets are comfortable, safe, and happy. Drop in- I will stop at your home and let dogs out, feed & water, play, etc. for no less than 20 minutes. I can also care for cats if you have them. Walks- I will come by, whether you are home or away, and take the dog(s) for a walk. I can feed and water too.

About: I am an animal lover, through and through. Dogs, cats, hedgehogs, birds… you name it. I treat my guest animals like my own and love on them as much as possible. I enjoy taking cute portraits of the pets in my care and I send lots of photos and written updates. I currently have a female Aussie/Pit mix, currently fostering a female Blue Doberman, and have had Doberman Pinschers in the past from puppies through old age until the rainbow bridge. I’m patient with puppies and elderly animals. I check to see which commands they know and how they have been trained to keep them consistent in my care, and have experience administering medications to them. Before joining Rover, I frequently dog and cat sat for friends and family. I am currently fully remote and based at home. I have a lot of flexibility to accommodate your pet’s schedule and needs. My schedule may change in the future but I will update my info when that happens. I have one female 7 year old Aussie/Pit Mix and one 2 year old foster female Doberman. I have a spare bedroom to host guests with their crates and belongings but during the day they are with me, within line of sight in my home. My yard is fenced (4ft) and only two steps to the yard from the door. There are no children living in my home. I live is a quiet neighborhood and can go for walks as needed.

About: I am a certified veterinary technician with an additional certification in massage and rehab therapy. I have been working in the animal care industry since 2012 and have worked with and trained dogs for a long as I can remember. I offer expert level care for medically complex cases and a fear free approach for anxious pets. I have experience working with anxious and aggressive dogs as well as competition trained dogs. Being crate trained is a must for overnight stays. I do have 1 large crate here but encourage you to bring your pet's crate from home if able. Self- employed with a flexible schedule, I have all day availability and can also do early morning and late evening drop ins. I only take 1 client at a time so that I can give your pet the care and attention they deserve. Because I only take one client at a time, I can offer a stress free stay for animal aggressive pets. I wash all toys and blankets and sanitize all the floors and dishes between every stay.

About: From long walks, to extreme belly rubs, I’ve done it all. As a former dog owner of 8+ years, I know firsthand that pets are family. I’ve cared for pups of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, from high-energy adventurers to senior snugglers who just want a cozy spot and some quiet company. Whether it’s long walks, playtime in the yard, or sticking to a precise feeding and medication schedule, I treat every dog with the same level of love, patience, and attention I give my own. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs if your dog loves fetch at sunset or needs a little extra encouragement to take their meds, I’ve got it covered. You can count on consistent communication, detailed updates, and (of course) plenty of photos during our time together. I’m here to make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and at home even when you’re away. Let me know what makes your pet special, and I’ll make sure they get the personalized care they deserve! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine whether it’s morning walks, playtime, or feeding, I always make sure pets get the attention and care they need. I thrive on creating a structured yet fun schedule that keeps dogs happy, healthy, and loved every day. I work from home and can be extremely flexible in between meetings or tasks so the pet comes first! To ensure a safe environment, I make sure windows and balconies are securely closed or have pet-proof screens. I also create a designated play area where pets can enjoy themselves without accessing unsafe spots or hazardous items. Along with providing plenty of safe, non-toxic chew toys, I keep their focus on fun, ensuring they’re entertained and not tempted to chew on furniture or anything harmful.

About: My dog passed away a few years ago and I miss him every day, but my family is not in a place to have a full time dog right now. However, I work from home and I’d love to have a doggie “coworker” who needs a buddy during the day. I have provided care to multiple dogs and can provide references if you need them. As mentioned, I currently work full time from home. Both of my children are in school all day so it’s just me in the house. I do have drop off and pick up to work around but we can discuss. I work out of a home office and can have the dog in the office with me all day. They can be in a dog bed or sitting on my lap if they’re small enough. I’ll take them on frequent walks and make sure they get adequate exercise. We have a gazebo and I'd be happy to sit outside with your dog so they get fresh air too (weather permitting).

About: I've been caring for dogs and cats for nearly my entire life, so your furry friends will be in very experienced hands. I find genuine joy in being around animals and truly love the bond that comes with pet sitting. Since I believe staying active is essential for a happy pet, I especially enjoy taking dogs on long walks. It’s a great way for them to burn off energy and explore, providing a mutual benefit of exercise and fresh air for both myself and your pup! Lifelong Experience: Hands-on care with a variety of animals since childhood. Large Animal Familiarity: Comfortable and capable with both large and small dogs Active Care Style: Dedicated to ensuring your pet gets the movement and stimulation they need. I’m currently a full time college student and attend classes two days a week. This allows me to have an open and consistent schedule to care for the needs of clients! Growing up, I participated in dog obedience training with my county’s 4-H program. This experience allows me to promote a safe and nurturing environment while allowing the dog to have a positive experience.

About: I believe that every pet deserves individualized care and attention. What sets me apart is my genuine love and respect for animals, which I demonstrate by providing them with a nurturing, safe, and family-like environment. Your pet will never feel like they’re just another animal in a kennel – they’ll feel right at home, like part of the family. I can help puppies with basic commands and socialization, as well as offering gentle care to senior pets who require extra patience and special attention. A big part of my service is the daily walks. I understand how important it is for pets to get their daily exercise and mental stimulation. I make sure to provide enriching walks, whether it’s a calm stroll for a senior pet or a longer, more adventurous walk for an active dog. I adjust the walks according to the pet’s needs, and I always ensure they’re enjoyable, safe, and full of exploration. For added peace of mind, I share GPS-tracked walk updates, so you can follow along on your pet's experience. In addition, I keep owners informed throughout with photos and messages, so you never have to worry about your pet while you're away. My routine includes regular walks and playtime, ensuring your pet stays active and happy. I have full availability to care for pets, and I’m happy to accommodate flexible schedules to meet the needs of both the pets and their owners. Whether it's during the day, late evenings, or weekends, I’m here to provide care whenever it’s needed. Feel free to reach out at any time, and I’ll gladly arrange a time that works for you and your pet! When caring for pets in their own homes or taking them for walks, my primary focus is always on safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment. In your home: I ensure the home is secure and free of hazards, paying close attention to areas where the pet may be most comfortable. I follow any special instructions from the pet owner regarding their pet’s habits, food, and preferences to maintain a consistent and safe environment. Whether I’m watching them at home or during a walk, I treat them with the same care as I would my own pets, ensuring they are always safe, comfortable, and happy. During walks: I prioritize safety by ensuring your dog is always under control, whether in urban or outdoor settings. I also ensure that pets are properly hydrated and not overexerted during their walks, adjusting the route and pace based on the pet’s age, size, and energy level. Trust is built by maintaining clear communication with the pet owner, regularly sending updates, photos, and videos to keep them informed about their pet's well-being and activities. This ensures the owners can trust that their pets are receiving the best care while they’re away.

About: I have been caring for all sorts of critters since I was very young. From pet sitting neighbors cats at age 7, to my first job at a pet store caring for all sorts of animals, and finally the last 13 years in veterinary medicine. I am well rounded in ANIMALS! Everyone knows me as the animal girl or vet tech. Caring for animals is my passion. I am familiar with many medications and able to administer them. I have cared for the young and the old. I grew up with Sophie my paralyzed Dachshund that I helped my parents care for including expressing her bladder. My Jack Russell Greenbean also became paralyzed in her last couple years of life and also needed around the clock care. I am well versed in senior care. I have cared for reptiles, small animals, birds, dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and would love to care for any farm/barnyard animals. We currently have Mac our pitbull/boxer mix, Oak our Australian cattle mix, Stitch our box tortoise and our chicken ladies. I can also offer nail trim and anal gland expression services if needed. I currently only work part time so I have a wide variety of hours to offer care. My mornings start with animal care and my nights end with animal care. I have a variety of dog/cat beds, big and small, all cozy of course. I have multiple different sizes and styles of crates if your dog is crate trained. We have a 3 acre lot that has a fenced pasture. We are in a court so I have the ability to also leash walk around the neighborhood if requested. My dogs are friendly and love visitors. I have a small animal cage that used to be for our ratties and can be used for a small animal/exotic pet.

About: I am the definition of an animal lover, which I attribute to having had animals around my entire life. I grew up with Australian shepherds, German shepherds, cats, hamsters, and even tarantulas! I am extremely comfortable walking dogs, giving them medication via food, and managing when to let them out to go to the bathroom. I’m also willing to give a big furry dog a good brush if they need it! I have lived primarily with big dogs, but have had close relationships with small dogs through friends and my husband’s family whom I have dog sat for in the past. In addition, I am a massive cat lover. I was given a kitten when I was 8 years old and had her for 19 years until she just recently passed. In her senior years, she had both hypothyroidism and asthma so I am well-versed in giving cats inhalers and medication in various forms (via dropper, ear application, in treats, and in food). I am a dependable dog and cat sitter/caretaker because I know how much your animal means to you. I’m an extremely organized person so you can count on me to be reliable with pick-up, drop-off, and everything in between. Taking care of your animal would not be a job to me because I am so happy to do it! I work twice a week so I could watch an animal full time during three weekdays in addition to weekends. I am still more than willing to watch animal for an entire week and either modify my work schedule to be with them more, or just make sure they are set up for the days I am in office. I have a non-smoking home with one cat and two people including myself. My home would be an extremely relaxing environment for a pet and due to my flexible schedule, I can dedicate nearly full-time care to an animal. Since I have a cat, I would only really be able to have dogs stay overnight for a couple-day stint since I'd prefer to keep them separate. In my client's home I would offer the same care in addition to respecting the environment. I'm naturally a very clean person and always pick up after myself.

Deanne kept all three of our dogs when we were out of town for four days. She kept us informed how they were doing and sent pictures so we could see them and they had all settled in well with her crew. So glad we found her in Rover!

Rachel was so amazing to our pup Ryder! She sent us great updates and gave us peace of mind that our boy was left in good hands. He was so loved and spoiled. We will definitely be using Rachel again in the future!

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

Jill and her family welcomed Bailey into their home and treated him as their own. They were attentive to his needs as a senior dog, including giving oral medicine. I could tell he was well brushed and cared for when I picked him up. Her large yard was perfect for him. Jill had clearly gotten attached to him. She was always very responsive whenever I texted. I would book with Jill again.

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

I highly recommend Kaitlyn!! I have 2 big boys 1 is a Doberman and the other is a golden mix. They fight if their in the same room. So was going to have Kaitlyn watch just one of them. When I went to do a meet and greet with my golden. We got to talking and she said she would be willing to take both. She was amazing! I didnt have to worry all weekend long about them because she would send me updates with happy pictures every day. They always looked so happy with all the walks and belly rubs. Highly recommend! I will definitely be going back to her and dropping my other doggie daycare even with a 15 minute extra drive.

Mary was the perfect choice for our dog Max and I am so glad I found her! She had a large yard for him to roam around in and she gave him so much love and attention. She also provided us with daily updates which the kids loved! I felt comfortable leaving him with her and was confident he was well taken care of and being spoiled. I will definitely use her the next time we need someone to care for Max!

Willow was well taken care of, and I really appreciated the updates while I was away. It was nice knowing she was in good hands, especially since she’s still a puppy. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would definitely book with them again.
