We will absolutely be utilizing her Boarding services for our next trip, and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter. Thank you so much Jonna!!😊❤️❤️❤️”
“Julia was absolutely a dream! She took such incredible care of our Weimaraner, Mozzie. Great communication, great photos and she made sure he had his own vacation while we were away! 10/10 and will rebook again!”
About: Hi! My family has had dogs my whole life and I currently have a dog myself, she is 4 years old. While i’m newer to pet sitting, I’m responsible, patient, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I already take daily walks as part of my routine, so caring for pets fits in very naturally. I enjoy having a dog join me—it makes the time more enjoyable while ensuring they get consistent, relaxed exercise. For dog walks, I make sure they get safe, relaxed exercise during my daily walking time. I pay attention to their pace, energy level, and comfort, and I always keep them on a secure leash. At my home, I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely spend time outside for potty breaks and fresh air. I make sure they are always supervised and safe while outdoors.
“Tanya and her children were so loving and kind when it came to caring for my very active puppy Draco. I loved the daily updates and was even gifted an adorable Christmas ornament of my baby 💙. My puppy slept the entire day after pick so I know he enjoyed himself 🤣 Draco loved staying with you guys and I will definitely book in the near future.”
“Sumer went above and beyond! She was there for me in a time of crisis and I will never forget that. She helped me out and was very flexible when it was really needed. Also, my dogs love her! I can't believe how fast my shy guy came out of his shell for her! Yay Sumer! Thank you so much!”
“She was able to take my two dogs last minute after another rover person did not answer when I was at their house. She was amazing with my babies and they really enjoyed her. Definately recommend!!”
“She was so great at watching our puppy! Her dogs showed our puppy how to ring bells to use the potty which was a huge help as we were potty training her. She sent pictures and updates of our puppy, and always answered the messages we sent! 10/10 I would have her watch our puppy again and recommend her personally to other puppy parents!”
“Mary treated our dog with love and care, as if she were her own dog. We appreciated how dependable Mary was with sending us updates and photos to keep us aware of how the stay was going. We highly recommend Mary, and will have our dog stay with her next time, for sure!!”
“I feel like we have found a diamond in the rough. Jacqueline, Kris and Bella are so kind and truly are dog lovers. We received updates with pictures during Piper's stay. Their fenced in yard was perfect for Piper to run and sniff. Cannot say enough positive remarks regarding the excellent care Piper received. We highly recommend Jacqueline's family for daycare or boarding, and will be boarding again in the future!”
“Thomas & Emily are the best pet sitters ever. The love & attention given to Abbey was exceptional. Abbey loved playing with Monster & she was treated like their own which made it so much easier to be away. We loved the updates, photos & video. Meds were also given morning & night. We highly recommend Thomas & Emily. We will definitely use them again. Thank you both so much.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was little. I love the energy they have . Keeps me on my feet. They know how to keep me going Part time would be wonderful . Only because I’m on disability and cannot make more then my check sadly . But it’s fine I promise I live in a tiny town no crime. Very nice for animals to go on walks. Gets plenty of play time. Lots of attention. Gotta love themm
“Madison did such a great job with Cooper! His excitement, new environment jitters and eating too fast caused him to vomit the first couple of days. Madison handled it like a pro, she seeked guidance from the vet who confirmed what seemed to be happening. She adjusted his food intake to help him keep food down and made some other changes which fixed the problem! Goose, their dog, was a wonderful big brother to Cooper and they all gave him love like he was their own. Cooper was taken on lovely walks on trails and to the dog park and Goose also shared his antlers with Coop which is now his favorite thing to chew! We were very happy with the care given to our crazy little kid and Madison went over and beyond!”
“Samantha was so accomodating allowing us a meet and greet before Luna's stay. She was so attentive to Luna's needs. Samantha provided us the cutest photos and updates during her stay. She took Luna on walks, play sessions and provided ample cuddle time. Luna absolutely loved Samantha and we couldn't have been happier with our choice in Samantha.”

“Madison provides a professional friendly and timely pet care service. Madison communication was clear timely and concise. Thanks for helping us with our pets knowing their safety is comforting as we leave our home.”
“Laurel took such good care of our Chloe! She arrived on time and we loved the pics she sent each time she was here. This was our first time using Rover and we will definitely use it again!”
About: I have worked in a vet clinic for 4 years, and have gained countless knowledge on caring for cats, especially caring for special needs and/or medically dependant cats. I have an understanding of cat health that goes farther than the average person, and I am passionate when it comes to caring for cats. I love working with and connecting to new pets, and love working with cats!
“This was our first experience with our 1-year-old cat named Stan being away from us. Teresa was amazing at communicating and also would send cute pictures of Stanley. I would highly recommend her to my friends and family who are looking for someone to watch their pet. When me and my fiance went to pick up our little dude he looked absolutely so comfortable outside relaxing in the beautiful weather and looked like he was part of the family. If we ever tend to leave even for a small vacation I would definitely 100% see if Teresa was available to watch our baby. We can't thank you enough Teresa people know how stressful it is to leave their fur babies anywhere but you made this experience so easy and comforting. Rover is lucky to have you respenting them.”

“Excellent communication and Kimberly did a great job with all of my requested items. Thank you for making my vacation less stressful! I will definitely use Kimberly again!”
About: I’ve taken care of many animals for some time now whether it be lizards, cats, dogs, or fish. Family and friends could always put their trust in me when I take care of their pets. I own a cat so I take care of him daily, feed him twice a day, give him toys, bathe him ever so often (depending if he goes outside), brush him because he has long fur. So he fits right in with my schedule and I give him cuddles all the time! I care for my pet everyday! I feed him twice a day ( morning and night) maybe a few treats, I’ll bathe him when needed but not too often cause it hurts their fur coat, clip his nails when needed, brush him just about everyday. I will especially give him cuddles whenever I see him!
“Julia is fantastic! Julia cared for my 2 cats while I was out of town for the holidays, and she was so patient, prompt, and responsive. Julia followed all of my care instructions and sent plenty of pictures to keep me updated. I will definitely use Julia again!”
“This was my very first experience using a pet-sitting service. I chose Estefanny because of her very high ratings and she did not disappoint. My ancient kitty Larry doesn't do well staying by himself anymore. Estefanny not only assured that he had regular meals, water, and meds, but she also stayed with him at night so he wasn't lonely. Larry clearly loved her. She sent an update and photos every day, many of which showed him on her lap or in the spare bed, so he was obviously comfortable sleeping with her. To be honest, I expected her to be great with Larry. What I didn't expect was, after 5 nights sleeping at my house, I couldn't even tell she had been there. The place was exactly as I had left it - I swear she packed out her own garbage! Estefanny clearly cares for pets and is pleasant, reliable, and responsive. The highest recommendation I can give her is that I'm headed out of town again next month and I've already booked Estefanny to take care of Larry. The whole experience was just terrific!”
“Chris is an amazing sitter! This was my first time using Rover and he put me right at ease. He took such good care of my kitty and sent me pictures all throughout the stay. He also left my place in great condition and was very flexible with timing. I highly recommend him!”

About: I've been a dog owner for 20 years. Over the last 10 years, friends, family and neighbors have entrusted me with taking care of their dogs. 2 years ago, I took on the venture of fostering dogs in my home. My experience with them has been with puppies through adult dogs. Special needs dogs are welcome too, as I have experience with dogs with seizure disorder and other chronic issues. During the time the foster dogs are in my care, I work to establish a routine, learn basic commands and household manners. I work from home Monday-Friday. My pets (and fosters) stay in my office with me when I working. I am able to care for your pets during my breaks, lunchtime and after hours. My weekends can be a bit more busy, but I can be flexible in working with your needs. I have a small fenced in yard for the dogs to stretch their legs, enjoy the outdoors, and of course relieve themselves. Indoors, I do have crates available if your dogs needs some alone, quiet time. My dogs have their own room to offer a safe space for them. The dogs are never left unattended to ensure they don't get into something they are not suppose to. If watching the dog in your home, I will follow any instructions that you give to ensure your dog's safety and happiness.
“Theresa took in our dog on short notice and provided overnight care when we had a bit of a family emergency out of town. She took several photos and provided updates as well. We will continue to trust our somewhat special needs dog with her. It seems clear that our dog enjoys staying there as well. Which brings us a lot of peace about trusting our dog with someone. Thank you, Theresa, for your love and care for our little member of our family!”
“Jennifer is amazing we have recurring visits for doggy day care and the dogs love going there. She took adorable photos with the witch costumes I sent them with. She even clipped my one dogs nails today. She’s an amazing sitter and your pets will be so well taken care of if they go here. You can’t find a better sitter. Lots of love and lots of care and so many photos and videos. It’s the best solution if your babies need someone to care or they while your away. I can’t say enough great stuff about her.”
About: As a former 4-H participant, I not only showed dogs but also engaged in comprehensive animal care and training programs. This background has equipped me with the skills to handle pets with patience, precision, and empathy. Whether your furry friend is a high-energy puppy or a senior dog with special needs, I am adept at creating a safe, comfortable, and stimulating environment for them. I work from home with a flexible schedule, allowing me ample time to provide dedicated and attentive care to your pets. Open to drop ins to overnight stay or boarding. Services Offered: Dog Walking: Energetic and engaging walks tailored to your dog's pace and stamina. Pet Sitting: Reliable in-home care, ensuring your pet’s routine is maintained just as you would. Drop-In Visits: Perfect for pets who need a quick check-in, feeding, or some playtime. House Sitting: I can look after your pets overnight in your home, providing peace of mind while you're away.
“Samantha was amazing with our Sully! He had such a good time playing & we loved all the updates/pictures during his stay. We definitely would rebook when we’re back in the area.”
“Jolly and Kenbob are great people. After meeting and talking with Kenbob we had no qualms about leaving Bailey in trusted hands for the day. Would definitely call them again when we are in the area.”
“Stefanie was great with our two girls. She was very attentive and definitely a dog person, but also an animal lover. Lots of room for everyone, and our puppies must have had a great time because they were exhausted when we picked them up. I can't recommend Stefanie enough.”
“My dogs received excellent care I feel so much better now with the upcoming overnight stay due to my daughters wedding. Much more comfortable! Certain they will be just fine.”
“OMG OMG!!! this lady is the BOMB… my mom got sick in icu (she passed away) but it was too much for my service dog in the icu so I reached out to her and she was AMAZING! Last minute sit and she jumped at the chance. I felt so good leaving my best friend in her care and I left my dog with NO one before. The love the care the pictures she sent me. BOOK HER NOW you won’t regret it! I felt so relaxed knowing my best friend was in great hands that I could relax and spend the last few days with my mom!!! THANK YOU THANK THANK YOU!!!”
“Let me start off by saying that Ella was absolutely amazing!!! I mean from start to finish she is phenomenal, her energy is amazing and she took care of my dog so so well!! She communicated the entire time and sent pictures and my dog looked replaced and happy! My dog is usually anxious in the car but for some reason when I picked her up she was relaxed and calmed which ensured she was comfortable and is beginning to recognize that I will always come back got her. Ella you are truly an angel and I look forward to future visits”
“Halee was awesome! Her lab is very playful. My dog had a great time there! He would get excited when I brought him to Halee's. She kept my dog actively engaged, and took great care of him ever time I left him with her. She even gave him a bath when he got all muddy from playtime in the park. You can tell she really cares about the dogs in her care.”
About: Safety is always my number one priority, and snuggles are a close second. While I don’t consider myself a professional dog trainer, I have a lot of hands-on experience training my own dogs and enjoy doing fun, light basic training with pups who are willing participants. Above all, my goal is to make your pet feel completely comfortable and happy in my care whether that means going for walks, getting extra snuggles, or engaging in a little positive, low-pressure training. I work part-time for my family business and have the flexibility to take my work with me anywhere. That means your pet gets plenty of attention and care! I truly love animals and make them a natural part of my daily life, it’s something that brings me a lot of joy and fulfillment I have three playful, friendly, and highly socialized dogs in my home. Crating is available if needed for your pet’s comfort and safety. My yard features a secure 6-foot privacy fence with plenty of space for your dog to run, play, and explore.
“Lauren was so good to our dog who is shy but super friendly. She made him feel at home and played his favorite game of fetch. He was tired when he came home and he slept the entire night. We will definitely use Lauren again. She even sent a little video of him to us.”
About: I’ve taken care of my sweet 70 lb pit bull for 4 years now in my home with a fully fenced backyard, downstairs dog play area, private room and crate for your dog, and eufy camera access to the private room. My dog has esophageal dysmotility so I understand medically complicated dogs. My home is ideal for a dog that is lower energy and enjoys calm and quiet environments. I work remote so I am home throughout the day other than the occasional doctor appointment. On average when I leave the home, it’s usually only about 2 hours and the max is about 4 hours. I also take my dog to a home groomer every other week so I can coordinate with you to take your dog to my groomer when my dog goes for grooming for an extra cost plus you paying the groomer separately. The most important thing is that your dog and my dog get along and/or are neutral. When I leave for brief periods your dog will be crated in their private room with the door closed and my dog will be loose but without access to your dog. Note: I DO NOT take dogs on walks. I believe it is too high risk for potential altercation with other dogs or your pet and I being separated. The alternative will be my backyard where they can play and explore and also I have a downstairs dog play area with a large dog bed and many toys! I work fully remote so your dog will be with me at all times (unless I have an appointment or errand to run) either in my office, their own private room with a crate, or in the living room. I typically wake up around 6 am and pet care happens whenever my dog needs so I can do the same for your dog in terms of potty breaks and feeding and play time. I am typically in bed by 8 pm but will get up if needed to take my dog out to the bathroom as well. Safety is my main priority. I require that our dogs get along/are neutral to one another to prevent any sort of altercation. If there ever is an altercation, you would be informed immediately and the dogs can easily be separated for the rest of the day/boarding booking. I have a very quiet and calm home and live in a quiet neighborhood as well. I take breaks during work to get on the couch and spend time with my dog and will do the same for yours! Your dog must be crate trained and will be put in a crate for any time I must leave the home (max 4 hours at a time). Your dog will also have to be either in their crate or in their private room with the door closed while I sleep. Them being able to be in their private room with the door closed while I sleep will be allowed on a case-by-case basis. Note: I DO NOT take dogs on walks. I believe it is too high of a safety risk for potential altercation with other dogs or your pet and I being separated. The alternative will be my backyard where they can play and explore and also I have a downstairs dog play area with a large dog bed and many toys!

“I’ve used Rover in the past and after an initial meeting, have had great luck with dog walkers. Michelle is even a step above those walkers. Her kindness and patience in allowing my timid dog to get used to her slowly, over a few visits, was such a relief. Michelle’s a rockstar! 😊”

“Estefanny knows her stuff around dogs! She handles my Dog Coco very well and she follows through all the instructions as discussed. She has been good with communicating her time and her schedule. I found her at the very last minute a night before I needed a walker, and she agreed to take on the responsibility. I would definitely recommend her as a dog sitter for you!”
About: I have always been around animals my whole life. I got my first dog at 11, and he’s still around and is the love of my life.

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m really patient, whether it’s a puppy still learning or an older pet that needs things slower and a little extra care.

I want you to feel at ease while you’re away, knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and getting lots of love. my flexible school schedule allows me to easily prioritize pet care around classes, ensuring your cat receives dedicated attention and reliable visits exactly when needed. my routine focuses on maintaining their specific feeding and litter schedules while providing professional medical monitoring, play and quiet companionship without the stress of travel.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was able to drive myself. My neighbors, family members & friends have trusted me to care for their pets for years. I absolutely love dogs & would love to be able to help you keep them safe & happy in the home. I work 40 hours per week and my schedule changes weekly. So my pets get most of the attention after work or before. Check availability! My schedule is weird, but works because i have days off during the week. I have two dogs currently. I love caring for them & enjoy spending time with them after working, I would love to add a few more to the list.

While i’m newer to pet sitting, I’m responsible, patient, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I already take daily walks as part of my routine, so caring for pets fits in very naturally. I enjoy having a dog join me—it makes the time more enjoyable while ensuring they get consistent, relaxed exercise. For dog walks, I make sure they get safe, relaxed exercise during my daily walking time. I pay attention to their pace, energy level, and comfort, and I always keep them on a secure leash. At my home, I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely spend time outside for potty breaks and fresh air. I make sure they are always supervised and safe while outdoors.
“Tanya and her children were so loving and kind when it came to caring for my very active puppy Draco. I loved the daily updates and was even gifted an adorable Christmas ornament of my baby 💙. My puppy slept the entire day after pick so I know he enjoyed himself 🤣 Draco loved staying with you guys and I will definitely book in the near future.”
“Sumer went above and beyond! She was there for me in a time of crisis and I will never forget that. She helped me out and was very flexible when it was really needed. Also, my dogs love her! I can't believe how fast my shy guy came out of his shell for her! Yay Sumer! Thank you so much!”
“She was able to take my two dogs last minute after another rover person did not answer when I was at their house. She was amazing with my babies and they really enjoyed her. Definately recommend!!”
“She was so great at watching our puppy! Her dogs showed our puppy how to ring bells to use the potty which was a huge help as we were potty training her. She sent pictures and updates of our puppy, and always answered the messages we sent! 10/10 I would have her watch our puppy again and recommend her personally to other puppy parents!”
“Mary treated our dog with love and care, as if she were her own dog. We appreciated how dependable Mary was with sending us updates and photos to keep us aware of how the stay was going. We highly recommend Mary, and will have our dog stay with her next time, for sure!!”
About: I’ve been taking care of neighbors pets for 10 years! Neighbors have relied on me to feed their pets, bathe them, walk them and play with them!!! I have a baby and my schedule is completely open! Any days of the week! Whatever works best for you, i will work with to make sure you are happy and comfortable!!! I have a back door that leads to a field that i can take your pets out on! And maybe throw a toy and ball around!!!
“Samantha was so accomodating allowing us a meet and greet before Luna's stay. She was so attentive to Luna's needs. Samantha provided us the cutest photos and updates during her stay. She took Luna on walks, play sessions and provided ample cuddle time. Luna absolutely loved Samantha and we couldn't have been happier with our choice in Samantha.”
About: We have had a dog or dogs for over 20 years. My husband and I both grew up with dogs as well. Our two dogs have been with us since they were puppies and both of them attended three levels of dog training classes. I work part-time very early in the morning and we spend a lot of time at home because my kids are homeschooled. There is usually always someone at home. I will do as much as I can to accommodate the dog owner’s preference in care for their dog. We have two dogs that can play with your dog. If your dog needs to be in a crate I can accommodate that. Our dogs are not allowed on the couches and chairs but my children do let them sleep in their beds.
“So thankful for the love and care Dasher received from Nic! Not only did my puppy feel safe, he enjoyed his time playing with their dogs, and being spoiled to make him feel comfortable! Nic was great with communication, sending pics throughout the stay and flexible with drop off and pic up times. Highly recommend and will be using him again!!”
“Lauren and her family were great! She was so flexible and paid attention to all the details. My dog came back happy and tired from having fun! We will be back next time we’re in the area needing a sitter!”
