“Beth was amazing!! Our dog seemed to love being with her. She sent a lot of pictures and videos, which was very comforting. She played with him a ton and treated him like one of her own. We will definitely book with Beth again.”
“Julie C is amazing! Hampton loves spending his vacation with her and her family, and we feel great knowing he is loved and happy through her pictures and updates she she sends daily. Wonderful sitter and family. Thank you again, Julie!”
“Michelle and Christy make me feel so comfortable about our dogs wellbeing while we’re out of town. They are great communicators and let you know what’s happening at home. I have used them many times and will continue to do so in the future.”
“Magda was absolutely wonderful with our puppy! She shared tons of photos and kept us updated the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She spent lots of time outside with Penny, taking her on walks and doing activities to keep her happy and engaged. Penny can definitely be a handful at times, but Magda was so patient, gentle, and kind with her. You can tell she truly loves what she does. We would recommend her to anyone.”
“It was the first time using this site. I have never left Izzy with anyone before, but I was going away for a long weekend. I was so nervous to leave her and she cried when I dropped her off, but I knew she’d get over it because there were other dogs there and she loves to play. Desiree was awesome. Send pictures every day and videos which made me feel ease on my vacation. I would definitely recommend her. She has a wonderful set up and is wonderful with the dogs that she cares for. I will be calling her again when I go away.”
“Kimberley provided my dog with the best possible care imaginable. She treats the dogs as if they were her own. Excellent communication and just a wonderful person overall. Highly recommend!”
“Had another wonderful experience with Ken and his family! The daily pictures and videos help you feel connected. The love and care that Roo received was outstanding! I wish we could give them 100 stars!”
“I will 1000% use Meaghan again. She accepted my dog into her home and treated her like she was part of the family. From family outings, to walks, to hanging out with her and her children, my dog was always included. I love that she sends morning updates with pictures. Being able to see that she is calm and comfortable with Meaghan and her family is very reassuring. My dog is very anxious, especially when we go out of town, and tends not to eat when we are gone. Meaghan was consistent and patient with her and finally was able to get her to eat on the 2nd or 3rd day.”
“Five Stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We are beyond grateful for the incredible care Michelle and her family provided for our senior pup, Boots. She’s 15 years old, has several health issues, and requires a very specific medication routine—including liquid meds and multiple eye drops throughout the day. They were incredibly patient with her, attentive to every detail, and clearly took the time to understand her needs. I had never left Boots with a sitter before, but was at such ease leaving her with Michelle! We received regular updates and felt totally at ease knowing she was in such loving, capable hands. It’s rare to find someone who not only follows instructions but genuinely cares about the comfort and well-being of your pet. Boots came home relaxed and happy, which says it all. We will absolutely be booking with them again and recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for thoughtful, dependable care for their fur baby—especially senior dogs with extra needs. Thank you so much for treating Boots like family!”
“Our pup was so well-loved by Patricia and her family. From the second she met our dog I knew she was in good hands and the regular updates and pictures she sent reassured us of that. Could not recommend her services more highly!”
“A true life saver! We attempted to keep our dog at a pet friendly hotel while we went to a concert, but Noodle decided she was going to let the hotel guests know how much she missed us by barking. We thought for sure we'd have to listen to the concert from the parking lot or just not go all together. Kathy responded very quickly, super nice and accommodating . Thank you again!”
“Liliana and her family gave me such peace of mind to leave my Whiskey in their care. The initial visit with the family in their beautiful home was so warm and friendly. And while I was away, I was so grateful for the updates and pics throughout each day. Whiskey got attached to one of Liliana’s teenage daughters. So sweet!”
“Kate is the best! I knew it was a match the first time I met her. My baby made new friends and had a great time at his "sleep over"😊 THANK YOU Kate for understanding my anxiety about leaving him with someone other than family.🥰”
“My dog Gracie is usually a little apprehensive when walking into a Boarding Facility. I decided to try sending her to "Home Boarding" at Michelle B's house. She was happy from the moment we arrived. Michelle gave her time to adjust to the new surroundings before having her meet her dogs. This worked out well, and all got along, no problems. Were a few children in the home as well, and Gracie enjoyed all the loving she got from them. She must have felt the same good vibes I did. She was happy to see me when I picked her up, but I could tell she wasn't stressed, and pulling me out the door. Michelle has a huge back yard, which she didn't get to play in much due to the wind gusts of 40-50 mph. Am looking forward to bringing her back again soon, when the weather improves.”
“Danielle is amazing! She is an excellent communicator, gave us frequent pictures and updates as well as videos. Our dog absolutely loved her and looked happy as can be! She went above and beyond and has a vast amount of canine knowledge. I’m so grateful we found her and we will definitely be using her pet sitting services again and again! Thank you Danielle!”

“Amy did an amazing job! I felt completely comfortable leaving my cats with her. She went out of her way to play with them and sent me the pictures, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Thank you so much, Amy! I’ll definitely be booking with you again next time! 😊”
“I was a bit nervous leaving my cat with someone I hadn’t met before, but I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Robin was incredibly professional from the start—communicative, punctual, and clearly experienced with pets. While I was away, Robin sent regular updates with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She kept the litter box clean, followed all instructions, and most importantly, took wonderful care of my cat. I came home to a well cared for kitty and a tidy space. I highly recommend Robin to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“This was my first time using the Rover service, snd I could not be happier! Annie too excellent care of my two cats and everything was in order when I returned home. My female is shy, but came out to greet Annie. I would highly recommend Rover and Annie if you are looking for a reliable person to provide TLC to your fur baby/babies!”
“We booked Michelle and Christy last minute because our usual sitter was unavailable. They were great with our cats and provided pics,videos, and notes while we were away. We would use them again if our usual sitter happens to be unavailable again.”
“Julia was amazing! I needed someone sort of last minute and she was out of town but made sure to make it back and to our house for a meet and greet. She came and took care of everything, sent pics and an update which eased any worry about being gone long. Definitely will use Julia in the future!”
About: Although new to Rover, I have been pet sitting cats for many years. I provide daily drop ins to feed, clean litter box and spend quality time with my new furry friend. Cats are less stressed being at home versus a boarding facility while their owners are away. I will always treat every pet as if they were my own. My experience comes from my time spent working in the cat adoption room at PetSmart and working for 8 years in a veterinary office. I have references upon request.
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my hands-on experience working with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I volunteered for two years at an animal shelter, where I helped care for dogs by providing exercise, socialization, and daily attention. This experience taught me how to work with a variety of temperaments and how to make animals feel safe and comfortable. I am also a dog owner myself and currently care for two Doberman Pinschers, which has given me extensive experience handling large, energetic breeds and understanding their physical and emotional needs. In addition, I have provided pet sitting services for many neighbors and family friends, earning their trust through my reliability, communication, and genuine love for animals. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calmer routine, I am committed to providing personalized care, plenty of attention, and a safe environment. I understand that every pet is unique, and I strive to make them feel loved and comfortable while their owners are away. I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I am available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week, including many evenings and weekends. As a dog owner myself, caring for animals is already part of my daily routine. I enjoy spending time outdoors, going on walks, playing with dogs, and making sure they receive the exercise, attention, and companionship they need while their owners are away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and specific needs so I can provide consistent and personalized care. In my home and in clients' homes, I ensure pets have a safe, clean, and supervised environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and any special requests from owners. Having cared for my own two Doberman Pinschers and many pets for neighbors and friends, I am comfortable handling dogs of different sizes and energy levels. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for.
“Karen was amazing! She is a pro and my 2 cats loved her. She was such an incredible support to our family while we were away for a few days. I will definitely re-book. I felt so at peace knowing my kitties were in such good hands.”
About: I’m a lifelong dog owner with experience caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds. I’ve also cared for neighbors’ dogs, including feeding, walking, and providing companionship. Reliable, patient, and attentive, I treat every dog like part of my family and make sure they feel happy and safe! Currently available Friday evenings and weekends. I’m happy to set up recurring walks or visits during these times and can offer flexibility for regular clients. I provide in-home pet care and dog walking with safety and trust as my top priorities. I use secure leashes, follow all instructions carefully, and ensure a calm, loving environment for your dog. I treat every dog like family, giving them exercise, playtime, and companionship while keeping their routines consistent. Reliable, attentive, and friendly, I communicate openly with owners to make sure your dog feels happy, safe, and loved!
“She was absolutely wonderful! She made both of our cats feel comfortable and cared for from the very beginning. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. She kept us updated and treated our cats like they were her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and dependable. We’ll absolutely book with her again!”
About: As a cat mom myself, I bring a strong understanding of feline behavior, stress signals, and low‑stress handling. Cats communicate in subtle ways, and I’m attentive to the small details, such as body language, appetite changes, and hiding behavior. I also love providing enrichment for indoor cats, from interactive play to scent enrichment and puzzle feeders. I tailor activities to each cat’s personality so they stay mentally stimulated without feeling overwhelmed.

“I can’t say enough about how well Xena loves coming to daycare with Michelle and Christy. They treat my dog as if it’s their own !! Great communication and highly recommend!”
“It has been a couple of months since Hodor's last visit to Cathy's. The second we pulled into the driveway it was clear he wanted to go inside to play with Cathy and Mable! It's very obvious how happy Hodor is while he is there and the confidence he has gained! We don't trust anyone else with him.”
“Karen and Tom were great with my girl Xo. Their big yard is perfect for Xo and her excess energy! They kept me updated and sent photos and videos of Xo. I was very pleased with Xo’s overall stay. Xo normally doesn’t eat when staying in a new environment. However, Karen was able to get Xo to eat comfortably. Xo enjoyed her stay, she came back an happy girl. I feel very comfortable leaving Xo with Karen and Tom and would definitely recommend them!”
“April was great for day care for my golden for 2 days when I was recovering from hip surgery. My boy was completely worn out when he came home. He also enjoyed having a playmate . Will use again👍🏻”
“AWESOME SITTER - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Will be very happy to use Lynda again! I contacted Lynda the day before I was going for a spontaneous day trip to Michigan and she agreed to a last-minute booking for my dog Bob. Lynda was so gracious and invited Bob & me over to meet her, her husband, and their daughter's dog, Teddy. I was so thrilled Bob had a playmate for the day and the two pups got along very well! Lynda & Mark are fantastic people and even said to drop Bob off that night so I could start out early the next morning! Wow, did I appreciate that as it certainly made it easy for me! Lynda checked in with me the next day and all was well with Bob! I truly appreciated the update on my boy, Bob! My day trip ended up going a little later than planned and when I contacted Lynda to let her know I'd be late, she was wonderful! I felt genuinely fortunate to have Lynda and her husband watching Bob! Bob seemed very happy & content staying with them and I was extremely comfortable with this hospitable couple. I would highly recommend Lynda & Mark in a heartbeat and won't hesitate to have them watch Bob again!”
“I was nervous to leave Remi with someone new I had never met but was at ease once meeting Eva and her 3 dogs. She was very kind, warm, and welcoming to the both of us. She gave lots of updates and pictures through out the day and I could tell she is a big dog lover. I would highly recommend Eva and will be using her in the future. Thanks, Eva!”

About: I’ve lived with and taken care of cats, dogs, and exotic pets my whole life. I’ve been responsible for bathing, walking, giving them food and water, scooping litter boxes, clipping nails, and everything else your pet will need since I could walk.

Tuesdays and Thursdays are a little more spread out, however I should be able to stop in almost whenever to watch your pet!

About: I currently have a 10.5 year old Golden Retriever named Nala. I don’t have a fenced in yard so we spend a lot of time going for long walks. I have had dogs my whole life and love to spend time with them. I'm a very nurturing person and I would make sure that your dog feels at home while they enjoy their visit with us. My dog gets along very well with other dogs so having an extra companion around for Nala would be great. I will make sure that your dog gets the attention and care that he/she needs ! I am a high school teacher, so right now I am gone from about 7-330 each day - but we take a nice walk in the morning before I leave & then go for several walks throughout the remainder of the day. Dogs at my house are allowed on all furniture and free range of the house for their convenience! If your dog is not potty trained, I will request a crate to be brought over while I am out of the house.

We’re Michelle and Christy, a wife duo, who both run this account and are here to take care of your pets so you can a stress free vacation/business trip/break! We have always talked about owning a farm and adopting every dog available but since we know that’s not possible right now, we figured we’d offer our services to take care of other pets. We know how hard it can be to find a pet sitter you can rely on and trust but we would like to be that for you. We treat our pups like family (because they are!) and your dogs will be no different. We don’t want you worrying when you’re on vacation or a business trip and will provide updates and photos as much as you’d like. We’ve taken care of dogs our entire life. We’ve had family pets and our own pets that we’ve walked, administered meds, fed, and cuddled. We currently work from home so we would always be home with the pets to hang out and take care of them. They could go out whenever they needed. At my home: have a fenced in yard and we have two pups that love to have fun running around and playing with other dogs. At your home: I work from home so I can be around all day to hang out and take care of your animals.
About: As a veterinary student, I bring a calm, knowledgeable, and detail oriented approach to every pet I care for. My background gives me a strong foundation in animal behavior, so I’m comfortable reading body language, recognizing stress signals, and creating a low stress, positive environment for pets of all personalities. I also have hands‑on experience with senior pet care, including medication administration, mobility support, and adapting routines to keep older pets comfortable and happy. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive to the small details that help pets feel safe and understood. I’m currently on summer break, which means my schedule is wide open and very flexible. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I’m able to plan my day around your pet’s needs rather than the other way around. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I make sure each visit is calm, unhurried, and focused entirely on your pet. Because I’m not in classes right now, I can offer consistent routines, extra attention, and plenty of time for enrichment, walks, or quiet companionship. Your pet gets reliable care, and you get peace of mind knowing they’re with someone who’s fully present and attentive. My background has trained me to read animal behavior and stress signals, so I always approach pets gently and at their comfort level. I follow your care instructions closely; feeding routines, medications, enrichment, litter box care, and any house rules you have. I double check doors, gates, and latches every visit to keep your pet secure. I also keep your home tidy, respect your space, and make sure everything is exactly as you left it. During visits, I prioritize low stress handling, clean water, safe play, and a calm environment. I pay attention to changes in appetite, behavior, or energy so I can update you right away. You’ll always get clear communication and detailed updates, because trust and transparency matter.

“It was the first time using this site. I have never left Izzy with anyone before, but I was going away for a long weekend. I was so nervous to leave her and she cried when I dropped her off, but I knew she’d get over it because there were other dogs there and she loves to play. Desiree was awesome. Send pictures every day and videos which made me feel ease on my vacation. I would definitely recommend her. She has a wonderful set up and is wonderful with the dogs that she cares for. I will be calling her again when I go away.”
“Kimberley provided my dog with the best possible care imaginable. She treats the dogs as if they were her own. Excellent communication and just a wonderful person overall. Highly recommend!”
“Had another wonderful experience with Ken and his family! The daily pictures and videos help you feel connected. The love and care that Roo received was outstanding! I wish we could give them 100 stars!”
“I will 1000% use Meaghan again. She accepted my dog into her home and treated her like she was part of the family. From family outings, to walks, to hanging out with her and her children, my dog was always included. I love that she sends morning updates with pictures. Being able to see that she is calm and comfortable with Meaghan and her family is very reassuring. My dog is very anxious, especially when we go out of town, and tends not to eat when we are gone. Meaghan was consistent and patient with her and finally was able to get her to eat on the 2nd or 3rd day.”
“Five Stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We are beyond grateful for the incredible care Michelle and her family provided for our senior pup, Boots. She’s 15 years old, has several health issues, and requires a very specific medication routine—including liquid meds and multiple eye drops throughout the day. They were incredibly patient with her, attentive to every detail, and clearly took the time to understand her needs. I had never left Boots with a sitter before, but was at such ease leaving her with Michelle! We received regular updates and felt totally at ease knowing she was in such loving, capable hands. It’s rare to find someone who not only follows instructions but genuinely cares about the comfort and well-being of your pet. Boots came home relaxed and happy, which says it all. We will absolutely be booking with them again and recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for thoughtful, dependable care for their fur baby—especially senior dogs with extra needs. Thank you so much for treating Boots like family!”
“Our pup was so well-loved by Patricia and her family. From the second she met our dog I knew she was in good hands and the regular updates and pictures she sent reassured us of that. Could not recommend her services more highly!”
“Kate is the best! I knew it was a match the first time I met her. My baby made new friends and had a great time at his "sleep over"😊 THANK YOU Kate for understanding my anxiety about leaving him with someone other than family.🥰”
“My dog Gracie is usually a little apprehensive when walking into a Boarding Facility. I decided to try sending her to "Home Boarding" at Michelle B's house. She was happy from the moment we arrived. Michelle gave her time to adjust to the new surroundings before having her meet her dogs. This worked out well, and all got along, no problems. Were a few children in the home as well, and Gracie enjoyed all the loving she got from them. She must have felt the same good vibes I did. She was happy to see me when I picked her up, but I could tell she wasn't stressed, and pulling me out the door. Michelle has a huge back yard, which she didn't get to play in much due to the wind gusts of 40-50 mph. Am looking forward to bringing her back again soon, when the weather improves.”
“Megan was amazing! Our dog can be high energy and has separation anxiety but she accepted him like her own. Megan gave our dog Miller a lovely vacation filled with lots of fun with his new pal Nala. Highly recommend :).”
“Mercedes is absolutely amazing! She and her family treat my little fur baby like he’s one of their own, and it truly shows. He gets so excited every time he sees them, which gives me complete peace of mind knowing he is loved, safe, and happy while in their care.”
“Viktoria and her husband did an amazing job with our anxious hound! She sent daily updates and pictures, and her communication was phenomenal. He was definitely spoiled when with her, and it really brought comfort to us while we were away to know he was in such good hands. He went on multiple walks and she even let him sleep with them when he jumped into their bed in the middle of the night! She will absolutely be our first choice for dog sitting in the future. I highly recommend her and couldn’t be more pleased with her services.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ After Biggie's last terrible experience at a boarding service, Mariah is here for the win! From the moment we arrived, Mariah was warm, gentle and welcoming. Of course she sent regular updates with photos and videos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. My dog came home happy, exhausted from all the attention she received and clearly loved. You can tell Mariah truly loves animals, treats them like family and went the extra mile to make sure my pup felt right at home. I’ll definitely be booking again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Amy and her husband were great. It was a last minute booking, and they even watched Todd an extra day when my plans changed at the last minute and I wasn't going to be home on time.”
