“Bridget was an awesome sitter for our dog! Being that this was the first time he was left with someone other than family, we were so appreciative of her communication and photos! A bonus was all the fur friends that she has so Dude, our dog, was always busy and getting lots of play in. Would highly recommend Bridget to anyone and will be keeping her in mind for future stays if we’re in town again.”
“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.”
“I can't recommend Karen enough as a dog sitter! She has taken exceptional care of my dog, Django, and I always feel at ease knowing he's in her hands. From the moment I met her, it was clear that she has a genuine love for animals. Karen goes above and beyond, ensuring that Django gets plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection. She provides regular updates and photos, which I truly appreciate. Django always comes home happy and well-cared for after his time with her.”
“Danielle was amazing. She communicated with us everyday and sent pictures. Our dog is very shy but I could tell in the pictures how comfortable she was with Danielle. We will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Magda and her family were amazing with my puppy. She sent daily updates with pictures, and I felt my gut baby was being treated as a family member. I cannot thank Magda enough! ❤️”
“Leslie has watched our 2 dogs a couple times. She’s very kind and our dogs love staying with her. She sends pictures and gives us updates regularly. Her communication is excellent. We HIGHKY recommend her.”
“Sylvie is the absolute best! She always takes great care of our little boy! She makes sure they get tons of play time and he always comes home dog tired. It’s like he goes to camp with his friends and he loves it!”
“Eloise was accommodating to our trip changes and odd flight times making our drop off and pick up times easier for us. We appreciate the time she spends with our senior dog.”
“This was my first time using Sharon and all went well. She sent photos and videos of Lily and took Lily on frequent walks. She was quick to respond to my texts. I really appreciate Sharon’s responsible and professional nature. And when I picked up Lily at the end of her stay, Sharon gifted her a bag of treats and toys and a thank you note! I will definitely use Sharon again.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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!”
“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Mercedes! This was our second time booking with her, and after our first experience, my mom even felt comfortable sending her puppy this time too. From the moment our dogs arrive, it’s obvious they are treated like part of the family. She takes them on plenty of walks, sends lots of pictures and updates, and truly gives us complete peace of mind while we’re away. Her whole family clearly loves having the dogs around, and it shows in the care and attention they receive. When we picked up our dog, she had even given her a bath, so she came home looking extra clean and happy! As if that wasn’t enough, she sent us home with the sweetest care package, complete with an adorable picture of our dog on the front. She consistently goes above and beyond in every way. She is incredibly kind, thoughtful, and trustworthy. We never have to worry about whether our dog is being well cared for because we know she is in the best hands. We are so grateful to have found her and will absolutely continue booking with her in the future. Highly recommend, you will not be disappointed! ❤️”
“Alyssa and her family were great with Kurt. She kept communication throughout his stay and sent pictures. When I picked him up he was very happy and having a great time. Thank you so much! ❤️”

About: I have had animals since I was a kid. We fostered kittens, dogs, and I have owned dogs and cats my whole life. My sister works at an animal shelter as well and has taught me many things to keep animals safe. I currently work full time so I typically am free at lunch, after work, and all weekends! I am flexible as well in the mornings. I am aware of all doors and locks. I make sure to ask specific questions regarding the needs of pets and what the owner needs such as check ins with photos, scooping cat litter, adjusting air, replenishing food and water, etc.
“Sarah was the best sitter we could hope for for our very first pet sitter! She communicated throughout the day, everyday with pictures and updates. She really cares for your pet as if it were her own! I definitely recommend her!!!”
About: I was always the go to person for pet sitting in my family. Growing up, we always had at least one dog in the house. And I was fortunate enough to have had one for 16 years. Her name was Bear. She was the best family dog anyone could ask for and I miss her very much. She is the reason I love taking care of animals so much. Recently, I have become very fond of cats and live with 2 of them. They have stolen my heart and take care of them every day. I also have two reptiles which are my whole world. No matter what animal, I would love to take care of them. I’m the sitter for you! I am in between jobs at the moment so my schedule is very flexible right now. I am very open and honest so I’m very willing to for the schedule that’s best for you and your pet! I am not offering services in my home. As much as I would love to, I rent and cannot have a lot of animals staying with me. I’m sorry for the inconvenience!
About: I have always shared my life with a cat; I cannot remember a time when I did not have one or two. Whether it's administering medication, feeding schedules, or simply providing comfort, I treat every cat as if they were my own. Making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well taken care of.
“Thank you being amazing and helping me understand how Rover works. This process was truly seamless. You were great with Boost and he also got to introduce you to his new friends that live next door 😂.”
About: I have owned my own cats for 15 years now. They are constantly cuddled and pampered. My husband and I adopted our two dogs 10 years ago. They go on car rides with us, and long walks. They love chew toys, and bones. When I lived at home I took care of all of our senior pets. I was raised in a household where pets are family. I would take care of your animals like they were one of my own. I am a teacher full time, but I am available full time during the summers. I am around in the evenings during the school year. I can walk your dogs, let them out in a fenced yard, play with them, and give lots of cuddles. I also love cats and can scoop litter boxes, play with them, and give them cuddles.
About: I've owned dogs my whole life and have been raising my own fur babies for 8 years now.

I have a fenced yard with two very well behaved dogs that love meeting new friends to run around with. Plenty of toys and healthy treats available as well!

About: Growing up I cared for my two dogs, an Australian cattle dog mix and a German shepherd. We loved them both to the ripe old ages of 16 and 12 respectively. In high school I spent my free time at the local animal shelter volunteering to walk and play with the various dog breeds. My entire life I have loved caring for all types of animals, so this is an amazing opportunity for me to meet even more. I am currently a college student attending school 3 days a week (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday). All other days of the week I am free to be booked! My yard is big, but unfenced so I will have to have your dog on a leash for our walks and playtime. I do own a crate and can use it if necessary, but all the specific care instructions can be discussed individually.

I don’t use any restraints, other than body positioning if needed, and aim to make your dog as comfortable as possible. Working with animals is my true passion and I would love to care for your fur babies! I had my first family dogs when I was 12 years old. Two labradors named Buddy and Shadow.

About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. I started working at a veterinarian clinic when I was in high school and eventually became a veterinary technician. My time working has allowed me to gain multiple skills from caring for senior animals to administering many different forms of medication. Whatever care your pet needs, I’ll be able to handle it! I am currently a student, so I am mainly free on the weekends. Depending on your location, week nights can possibly work for me as well! When I am with your pet, they will have my undivided attention. Whether they are a youngster who needs a lot of play time, or an older pet who just needs some extra cuddles. I have worked with a wide variety of sizes and types of animals so I can handle just about anything!
About: I’ve cared for cats my whole life and have experience rescuing and caring for stray cats. I’m comfortable with kittens, seniors, shy cats, and energetic cats, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. 🐾❤️

About: Hi! I’m Victoria. I grew up surrounded by cats, and 6 years ago my husband and I adopted Harley, our sweet little dog who completely stole our hearts. I know how important it is to feel confident and comfortable when someone else is caring for your fur baby. I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give Harley. Whether your pet prefers playtime, cuddles, slow sniff-walks, or just gentle company, I’m here to match their needs and routine. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to send updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and happy at all times. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide regular walks, check-ins, playtime, and constant attention whenever needed. I prioritize safety and comfort in every home I care for. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keep environments clean and secure, and provide constant supervision during walks and visits.

“Danielle was wonderful! She responded quickly to our very last-minute request for doggy day care for our 3-year-old Cavachon, Cooper. We are in Florida for a month with our large family and needed a safe, happy place for Cooper to spend the day while we were doing a day long activity. Danielle's ability to take care of Cooper at the last minute, and to keep in touch with us throughout the day with updates and pictures made our day! He had fun and returned to us at days end, happy and tired. Thank you, Danielle!”
“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!”
About: Hi! My name is Kacey, and I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. I’ve worked with energetic puppies, senior dogs, shy dogs, and dogs that need a little extra patience and attention. As a caregiver in my professional life, I’m dependable, responsible, and understand the importance of providing safe, compassionate care.

I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll always keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾 I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets throughout the day. My daily routine allows for regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. When I am away from home, a family member is always there, so pets are never left alone for long periods of time. In my home, pets are treated like family and are given plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision throughout the day. While my yard is not fenced, I have leads available and always prioritize safety during outdoor time. I can follow your pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and potty breaks to help them feel comfortable and at home.

We would have time to play, walk, snuggle, and bond. I have a large fenced in back yard. Your baby would feel at home and comfortable in my home, they would have full access to roam and wander. They also would be allowed on the couches / beds for snuggles and belly rubs. I work from home, giving me the flexibility to ensure your pup has plenty of time and attention. I have an 11 year old son who is just as much as an animal lover. I have a large fenced in back yard. My foxy girl loves to get her zoomies out back there, and loves playing fetch.

My husband is almost always home, and we always make sure someone is at home to be with the animals. Care is always personalized to the dogs needs. We go for regular walks, follow any dietary restrictions, and always check with the pet-parent if there's anything else needed.
About: I have had animals apart of my life since I was born! Although we do not currently own any pets since we love to travel we love taking part of pet sitting and dog walking! We started asking our neighbors if we could spend some time with their pups after seeing our son was scared of dogs as a simple way to help introduce him into the world of joy that comes with owning a dog. And throughout the process we got to meet so many different dogs and fell in love with learning all the different personalities and quirks each dog had. Since my fiancé and I both work from home we thought why not look into doing this more regularly! Which lead us to joining Rover! So here we are ready to help our neighbors with any of their pet needs! Looking forward to spoiling your fur babies! From my pack to yours, I can’t wait to hear from you! It's important to note that every pet is unique, and their individual needs may vary. Owners should tailor their routines to accommodate their pet's specific requirements, age, breed, and health conditions. Flexibility and adaptability are key to ensuring the well-being and happiness of your pet within your daily or weekly schedule. Initial consultation: Meet with the client to discuss their pet's routine, dietary needs, medical history, and any specific instructions. Take note of emergency contact information and inform the client about your availability. Maintain the pet's routine: Stick to the pet's established schedule for feeding, walking, playtime, and medication administration, if required. Consistency helps reduce stress for the pet. Safety and security: Ensure that the home is secure and that the pet cannot escape. Keep an eye out for potential hazards, such as open windows, toxic substances, or small objects that the pet could ingest. Exercise and play: Provide the pet with sufficient exercise and mental stimulation according to their needs. Take dogs for walks, engage them in play, or follow any specific exercise routines requested by the client. Food and water: Follow the client's instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, and dietary restrictions. Ensure that fresh water is always available. Monitoring and interaction: Spend quality time with the pet, offering companionship, affection, and socialization. Observe their behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, reporting any concerns to the client.

Since my fiancé and I both work from home we thought why not look into doing this more regularly! Which lead us to joining Rover! So here we are ready to help our neighbors with any of their pet needs! Looking forward to spoiling your fur babies! From my pack to yours, I can’t wait to hear from you! It's important to note that every pet is unique, and their individual needs may vary. Owners should tailor their routines to accommodate their pet's specific requirements, age, breed, and health conditions. Flexibility and adaptability are key to ensuring the well-being and happiness of your pet within your daily or weekly schedule. Initial consultation: Meet with the client to discuss their pet's routine, dietary needs, medical history, and any specific instructions. Take note of emergency contact information and inform the client about your availability. Maintain the pet's routine: Stick to the pet's established schedule for feeding, walking, playtime, and medication administration, if required. Consistency helps reduce stress for the pet. Safety and security: Ensure that the home is secure and that the pet cannot escape. Keep an eye out for potential hazards, such as open windows, toxic substances, or small objects that the pet could ingest. Exercise and play: Provide the pet with sufficient exercise and mental stimulation according to their needs. Take dogs for walks, engage them in play, or follow any specific exercise routines requested by the client. Food and water: Follow the client's instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, and dietary restrictions. Ensure that fresh water is always available. Monitoring and interaction: Spend quality time with the pet, offering companionship, affection, and socialization. Observe their behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, reporting any concerns to the client.
About: I've owned a cat for 10 years now and in those years I taught her how to sit and high five. I also grew up with animals in my household since I was born. I've sitted my grandpas dog for a week at his house while he was away and took care of my moms dog for a weekend. I also volunteered at a few shelters, the most recent one being NAWS. I just got a new job so my schedule for January is currently unknown. They still need to get back on me for the date that ill start but itll be 5 days a week for 8 hours a day when it does. While I'm at the client's home I would treat their pets as if they were my own. In my household I always make sure to spend as my time with my cat as I can. With my cat I fill up her bowl and when it gets low I usually fill it once more, this is because she doesn't eat much in a day and never finishes. If the client has a certain feeding schedule I would make sure to feed the animal at the times the client requires. With a dog I would take them on walks atleast twice a day, if the client doesn't have a yard or has a certain walk schedule for their animal I would take them on as many walks as needed. With cats depending on how long the client is gone I will make sure the litter is cleaned once a day and replace it every week.
About: I have many years of experience with pet sitting. This includes feeding, overnight care, taking them for walks, cleaning up after them, etc. I have experience with both cats and dogs. I am an elementary school music teacher. I love being outdoors and currently walk at least 3 miles myself each day. Having dogs to walk would work with what I already do on my own time, plus bring me so much enjoyment. I am reliable and can provide references.

“Bridget was an awesome sitter for our dog! Being that this was the first time he was left with someone other than family, we were so appreciative of her communication and photos! A bonus was all the fur friends that she has so Dude, our dog, was always busy and getting lots of play in. Would highly recommend Bridget to anyone and will be keeping her in mind for future stays if we’re in town again.”
“I can't recommend Karen enough as a dog sitter! She has taken exceptional care of my dog, Django, and I always feel at ease knowing he's in her hands. From the moment I met her, it was clear that she has a genuine love for animals. Karen goes above and beyond, ensuring that Django gets plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection. She provides regular updates and photos, which I truly appreciate. Django always comes home happy and well-cared for after his time with her.”
“Leslie has watched our 2 dogs a couple times. She’s very kind and our dogs love staying with her. She sends pictures and gives us updates regularly. Her communication is excellent. We HIGHKY recommend her.”
“Eloise was accommodating to our trip changes and odd flight times making our drop off and pick up times easier for us. We appreciate the time she spends with our senior dog.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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!”
“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Mercedes! This was our second time booking with her, and after our first experience, my mom even felt comfortable sending her puppy this time too. From the moment our dogs arrive, it’s obvious they are treated like part of the family. She takes them on plenty of walks, sends lots of pictures and updates, and truly gives us complete peace of mind while we’re away. Her whole family clearly loves having the dogs around, and it shows in the care and attention they receive. When we picked up our dog, she had even given her a bath, so she came home looking extra clean and happy! As if that wasn’t enough, she sent us home with the sweetest care package, complete with an adorable picture of our dog on the front. She consistently goes above and beyond in every way. She is incredibly kind, thoughtful, and trustworthy. We never have to worry about whether our dog is being well cared for because we know she is in the best hands. We are so grateful to have found her and will absolutely continue booking with her in the future. Highly recommend, you will not be disappointed! ❤️”

“Leslie did a great job with my Marley. Marley is a very anxious dog and he had a blast with Leslie. I will leave for my work trip in a couple weeks knowing that he is in good hands and being well cared for! 🤍”

“Renae was super friendly and helpful. This was my first time using Rover for Sammy and I will continue to use this service. Renae gave me updates throughout the stay which was very reassuring. Sammy was able to play with Renae's pup which was very nice for him to have a friend instead of being alone at the pets hotel.”
