I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of my baby.”

“What a great experience. Eboni provided updates and a ton of pictures to let me know how my Serena was doing while we we apart. I didn't have a worry in the world when I saw the smiles she had on her face and her playing with the other dogs in the big backyard. If you need a dog sitter, Ebony is the best.”

She wanted all her peeps to be together. That is true testimony to the wonderful experience she had.

About: With 12 yes of experience I pride myself in having no complaints because I always make sure I do exactly what is asked of me to provide the best care possible. Whether its giving medication, dealing with a crazy kitty, or feeding kittens.
“Barbora was perfect! She is very sweet and attentive to my 17 year old ckd kitty(Bippy). I was so nervous to leave Bippy but she was in great hands. Barbora made sure her water was clean and full. Followed my cat's peticular feeding instruction. My kitty cat can kind of be a diva if she isn't fed in separate bowls. Barbora understood and fed her accordingly. She kept her litter box clean and replenished with fresh litter. She was patient and kind to my scaredy cat. Through the whole experience I was put at ease that Bippy was well taken care of and I would not hesitate to do this all again. Thank you Barbora for all your help! It is very much appreciated!! You are amazing!”

About: Hi! My name is Gaby and I’m the most genuine animal lover ever. All my life, I have always had pups in my home or worked professionally with them which is why I joined Rover so I could work and do what I love at the same time. I do Rover full time and I don’t have any fur babies of my own at the moment, so I’m able to dedicate all my time and attention to yours 🐾☺️ I've worked at Kennelwood Animal Resort and Y Bark Alone which are daycare/boarding businesses and I absolutely loved it. I was taught how to kennel them properly, administer meds, and how to deal with all types of animal behavior big and small. With this being said, you can always trust your fur babies in my presence. He or she will always be the number one priority and be treated as if they were my own. Lastly, my goal is to build a relationship and longevity with the pup/owner so I can be the first person you think of when looking for a sitter knowing that they’re in great hands. I’m extremely excited to have the pleasure of being apart of Rover and hope to take care of your precious babies soon! Rover is my full time job at the moment so my schedule is very open to give your pet the proper time and attention they deserve. How I care for your fur baby is completely contingent on the owner. I follow all guidelines they have set in place whatever those may be. But you can trust they are always in the best of hands.

About: As a passionate dog lover, I’ve been providing dog sitting services for 20 years, and it’s been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life! Throughout my journey, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for a diverse range of breeds, from energetic puppies to laid-back seniors. Each dog has its own unique personality, and I’ve loved tailoring my care to meet their individual needs—whether it’s extra playtime, long walks, or cozy cuddle sessions on the couch. I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment for every dog in my care. I’ve developed strong routines that include regular feeding schedules, exercise, and plenty of mental stimulation through games and training. My goal is to make sure your furry friend feels loved and happy while you’re away! I also understand how important communication is. I provide daily updates and photos so you can see just how much fun your pup is having. Many of my clients have commented on how relieved they feel knowing their dogs are in capable hands. Being a dog sitter isn’t just a job for me; it’s a chance to build lasting relationships with amazing pups and their owners. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member and give them the love and attention they deserve! I work from home, so your fur baby can go out frequently and get extra cuddles during the day! This is especially beneficial for puppies and older dogs. My large backyard, complete with a secure 4-foot fence, is the perfect playground for dogs to run, explore, and enjoy the great outdoors—especially on sunny days! At night, your furry friend will feel right at home. I provide a variety of cozy sleeping options, including crates, comfortable beds, and even couches for those who love to snuggle up. I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment, so your pup will have a restful night’s sleep after a day full of fun.

“Thor came home completely exhausted from his day with Christina. She made sure Thor met everyone at his own pace and he was comfortable throughout his stay. She provided a lot of pictures and communication throughout the day which put my mind at ease. She’s very clearly has a passion for dogs and spoils each dog in her care. Thor had crashed out in the car before even getting home. Before he fell asleep he gave her 4 paws up. I’m so happy to have found Christina and the comfort of knowing my fur baby is in good hands!! Thank you Christina!!”
About: I have had my own pets since I was a young child. I have taken care of many of my friends, family, neighbors, and church members pets over the years. I love dogs and kitties and believe they deserve to be well taken care of. They depend on us to be good to them and are at our mercy. If they are mistreated they can't say anything. This makes it that much more important to be good to our pets. I am not currently working so I have a lot of free time. I have 6 grown children who are on thier own. Two in college, the rest with their own families. I have one friendly lab mix who loves playmates. A fenced in yard, doggie door, and all hardwood floors so accidents are not tragic! I am within walking distance of our city bike/walking trail for long doggie walks.

About: Hello! My name is Marieta and I live in a house with a large yard in Edwardsville, IL. I would love to watch your dog(s) for the day and/or overnight. I am an experienced dog walker & have also cared for dogs, ranging from small to large breeds, for the last couple of years. I absolutely love dogs - I've had dogs all throughout my life until recently. I work from home, thus, I am able to provide constant attention, long walks, and overall engagement. My husbans can assist any time that I may be busy. He is also a pet lover! We are available almost all week and weekend days/nights. We are flexible and have no problem with last minute calls. We are also available to watch your pet(s) for an extended period of time! I currently work from home and much flexibility to spend lots of time with your dog.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and have three dogs ranging from 6 pounds to 60 pounds. I’ve been looking after pets since I was a child and have experience with all kinds of companions. Right now, I share my home with three dogs—60 lbs, 25 lbs, and 6 lbs—so I’m very comfortable managing different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Over the years, I’ve also cared for cats, birds, fish, gerbils, and even snakes. I work remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive, reliable care throughout the day. Let me take something off your plate, whether it be dog walking , dog sitting, drop in’s or boarding. I work remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule to help to care for your pet. I’m available on weekdays and weekends with a little bit of notice! 🐾 I’m dependable and safety-focused, and I’ll care for your pet the same way I care for my own. I have three wonderful dogs and a fully fenced backyard, so safety is always top of mind in my home. I’m happy to follow any specific routines or precautions you have in place to make sure your pet feels secure and well cared for. 🐾
About: I’ve owed and taken care of animals for decades. They are an indelible part of families and should be treated with an abundance of love. I am recently retired and have plenty of time to love and care for animals. Your pet will be treated as a member of my family. I have owned four dogs but they have all crossed the rainbow bridge. I have a fenced yard. Your pet will be allowed on my furniture and sleep in my bed (if they want to).
About: I've had two dogs, one puppy and one rescue (both Wheaten Terriers). I miss them and decided to offer my home to other dogs who mostly prefer the comforts of being in a homely environment, especially for senior dogs who need to feel settled while owners are away. I am near the trails so dogs can have a long and safe walk, or just a few 20 minute strolls around the neighborhood - it's the dog's choice! Your dog will be in very good hands. I am available 24/7 with a daily routine that would accommodate a pet dog in my household to look after and care for as if my own. I sometimes board my neighbor's dog and a feeding routine is maintained during the day, early morning walk and throughout the day as required. I have no fence so a pee break is on leash around the gardens of my home. We usually walk about 3 times per day (weather permitting) with a final pee break before bedtime. Play times and cuddle times are spontaneous, as well as nap times! I don't mind dogs on my leather sofa.
About: I've trained and have been a parent to numerous breeds. Right now my wife and I have 2 adorable golden doodles. We can't have kids so our pets mean everything to us I'm currently working from home selling items online and taking care of our dogs and cat. I take care of the house and yard and keep it clean I will feed them and play with them. I will let them out and clean up any messes they may l leave. I will check in on them multiple times.

About: I'm a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for friends’ and family members’ pups of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve looked after everything from 14-week-old puppies to senior rescues. I’ve also worked with dogs who need medication, have special needs like blindness or anxiety, or just have tons of energy to burn. I approach every dog with patience, compassion, and personalized care — as if they were my own. As a full-time student with a light class schedule — just a few hours in the evenings Monday through Thursday — I’m available nearly all day, every day. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent care, timely check-ins, and plenty of attention for your pup throughout the day. When boarding dogs in my home, I provide a peaceful, dog-friendly space where your pup can relax and feel at ease. I have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and live in a quiet, walkable neighborhood that's perfect for regular walks and sniff breaks. I maintain a consistent routine, supervise playtime, and ensure your dog always has a cozy spot to rest — just like they would at home. Being welcomed into someone’s home to care for their pet is a responsibility I take seriously. I’m clean, respectful, and always follow care instructions closely. I create a calm, safe environment for each dog, keep communication open with regular updates, and do everything I can to make sure both you and your pup feel secure and supported.
About: I can train dogs I’ve trained many in the past and even mine ! Potty train walking on the leash bad behavior with aggressive eating and trained them to be patient as well. I groom clip nails clear ears sometimes I even trim their hair down I’m well at what I do. I was asking God what is it I can do and all I think about is helping others with their animals if it’s Gods will for my life all will fall into place and if your dog needs training I am that person to help you we can make appointments and I can help you with your pet. Your pet will need to have all his or her vaccinations including flea and tick prevention to keep all the animals safe and mines. They have to be crate trained at least and I can do the rest if not I can work on crate training as well. But I will prefer them to be crate trained. Although i pray in Jesus name you pick me to take care of your pets. Cats aren’t allowed in my home my husband is allergic I can only do dogs God bless and Jesus loves you all !!! Every morning I wake to take my pets outside around 6am every morning, I let them play outside sometimes we go on walks depending on the conditions of the weather if it’s to hot then no if it’s to cold then no I try to go on days I know the weather will be okay enough to take walks but I have a big fenced in back yard so I have a lot of space in my back yard to let them all run around and be free. In my home I would do as I always do train feed take on walks when can and have a great time. Although if in a clients home I always follow their rules I use to do wag and I had a high rating I’ve actually helped people with their dogs when they were out on trips and or just at work and needed someone to take their dog outside and that’s what I did never had anyone complain. I am very trustworthy.

“Catelyn stepped in to walk my dog, Princeton Antonio, for a few mornings while our regular walker was away and she made a wonderful impression in such a short time! She was communicative, punctual, and kind, and she treated Princeton with such care and attentiveness. On her last day, she even left a thoughtful thank-you card, which speaks volumes about the kind of person (and professional) she is. Though our time together was brief, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind-hearted dog walker.”

I also have experience caring for more than one pet in the same home that are on different schedules or need to be kept away from another pet in the home. I will treat you fur baby like my own and they will be well cared for! I'm currently in the process of going back to school so I am not working a scheduled job right now. My availability is flexible. I'm available for daily check ins and walks. I'm also available for extended or overnight care throughout the week and all weekend. I will do all of my care at the client's home per the client's instructions on their pets needs and will provide care in the way the client specifically wants their pet cared for. My availability is open and very flexible! I can take last minute requests, overnight stays any day of the week, can stop in multiple times a day to check on your pet if needed. I will do my best to accommodate any situation and make sure to take great care of your dog/cat! I will give your pet lots of love and attention! I will make sure to follow any instructions or requests while I am caring for your pet(s). I like to send daily pictures and updates to give you piece of mind while you are away. I always keep notes with your normal routine with your pet as well as any other information I need to know while caring for them. Before caring for your pet(s) I like to spend some time with them during a meet and greet because it is extremely important to see how your dog or cat responds to me before I am hired to care for them. Being a dog mom myself I would want to see how my dog responds to someone before I made the decision to hire them. Your pet(s) safety, comfort and wellbeing are my top priority when caring for them!
About: Hi! My name is Gaby and I’m the most genuine animal lover ever. All my life, I have always had pups in my home or worked professionally with them which is why I joined Rover so I could work and do what I love at the same time. I do Rover full time and I don’t have any fur babies of my own at the moment, so I’m able to dedicate all my time and attention to yours 🐾☺️ I've worked at Kennelwood Animal Resort and Y Bark Alone which are daycare/boarding businesses and I absolutely loved it. I was taught how to kennel them properly, administer meds, and how to deal with all types of animal behavior big and small. With this being said, you can always trust your fur babies in my presence. He or she will always be the number one priority and be treated as if they were my own. Lastly, my goal is to build a relationship and longevity with the pup/owner so I can be the first person you think of when looking for a sitter knowing that they’re in great hands. I’m extremely excited to have the pleasure of being apart of Rover and hope to take care of your precious babies soon! Rover is my full time job at the moment so my schedule is very open to give your pet the proper time and attention they deserve. How I care for your fur baby is completely contingent on the owner. I follow all guidelines they have set in place whatever those may be. But you can trust they are always in the best of hands.

“This was my first time leaving Lou with a babysitter and I was nervous. Sarah made me and my girl both feel very comfortable at drop off. I received pictures while I was out of town so that I could see how well she was doing. Sarah was very attentive to Lou’s needs as an elderly dog with anxiety. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of my baby.”

About: Hi, thank you so much for stopping by to read through my profile. I have loved and taken care of friend’s and family’s dogs for years. Big, small, medium, even tempered, wild, mellow- I absolutely love them all. I have a 12 year old lab, who has slowed down a lot. She is my everything. I find something about raising a dog from a young pup to an aging one, so very special and rewarding. If your dog is fast paced or likes to smell every blade of grass, I’m game. Rain, shine, or snow, I’m available. I’d absolutely appreciate it if you gave me the opportunity to spoil your dog, not just walk or watch. I understand these are your babies. My house is set up well with a fenced in back yard and lots of attention and love offered. Let me know what questions or concerns you might have! I work Monday-Friday, I am usually free in the evenings and off on Thursdays typically. I’m free on most holidays(so keep that in mind).** I am free on most weekends. ** My job is flexible, 12 mins away, making it easy to drop by my house throughout the day. My house is open and I have a great fenced in area. Your dog will be spoiled rotten over here. Lots of pets and attention. I also know how important a walk is to a dog, it’s the highlight of their day! We’d make the most of it.
“Robert did an excellent job taking care of our dog that by the time I went to pick him up, he decided that he wants to continue to starly on the couch with his friend. I had to coax off the couch so that we could get going home since it was late when I picked up him. I would recommend him for anyone who needs their furrikids to be taken care in there absence.”
About: I have watched dogs of all sizes from about 7 lbs to 120. My best friend has two Great Pyrenees who I watch and play with all the time. I had a Shih Tzu for about 12 years that I was responsible for feeding, walking and taking to the vet to keep vaccinations updated. I also have watched my aunts Yorkie multiple times. Being on summer break gives me lots of time for any responsibilities necessary. I am a teacher on summer break so right now I can give your dog/dogs lots of love and attention. I have plenty of time to go for walks. I have no dogs at this time as I just put my last dog down in September. I have lots of time for walks, love and will be able to feed them whenever needed. My goal is to keep them on their normal routines to ensure they are comfortable.
“Rachael and Joe were very accommodating to our needs and allowed us to visit their home before booking. They treated Cody as if he was one of their own. They even allowed Cody to sleep with them. They spoiled him rotten lol. And he got along with their dogs very well. I will definitely use Rachel and Joe again and feel very comfortable and have a piece of mind that Cody is being well taken care of.”
