“Sherri and Lee were wonderful pet sitters for our dog while we were on vacation. Miss Bonnie has significant separation anxiety from prior abuse, but they handled every issue that came up with great care and consideration for her well being. They're warm, welcoming dog-loving people who treated our little sweetie like a member of their pack. Highly recommend them!”
“I was stuck in Houston for an extra couple of days from my flight being canceled and had to extend my dog’s stay. Lynelle helped me tremendously and sent me plenty of pictures. She also let me know he didn’t want to eat his food and she gave him some of her own dog’s food instead. I am so grateful for her and I will definitely book again in the future”
“My Italian Greyhound is a rescue and is quirkier than most iggies, which are quirky breed anyway. Somewhat last minute, I arranged for Walter to stay with Carrie for 4 days. She always responded to texts/emails quickly and kept in touch.”
“They (the whole family!) were wonderful with our dog, Cooper. Cooper had never stayed at someone else’s home before, so we were nervous how he would do. Rebecca was wonderful in sending us pictures and keeping us updated, reassuring us he was doing well. He seemed happy, both in the pictures and when we came to get him. I felt like he was well cared for and loved while we were gone. I would definitely use her again!”
“I couldn't have asked for better care for my sweet baby Myla! Kevin & Diana went above and beyond to make sure she felt at home, showering her with love and attention. They kept me updated with adorable photos and videos, which put my mind at ease while I was away. Myla came home happy, healthy, and clearly well-cared for. Thank you so much for your kindness and professionalism—I highly recommend your services to anyone looking for trustworthy and wonderful dog sitters!”
“Emily always takes great care of our Buddy! She is great about sending pictures and keeping us updated! We always can rest easy when she’s taking care of him! Very thankful for Emily!!”
“ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! This was our 1st Rover booking and I think we found the best pet sitter! Odalys was great. Her communication - both before and during our dog's stay - was excellent. We especially liked the photos that she sent to us while we were away. She truly loves the pets in her care. We would highly recommend!”
“Crystal was amazing from day 1 with Luna. She understood her behavior patiently and helped her adjust with other dogs. She truly loves dogs and her actions speaks for it. Thanks to Crystal and her daughter, that I was able to leave Luna worry free. I don’t have to ever worry about leaving Luna in a daycare.”
“This was our first time leaving our boxer with anyone. Derrick was great. We felt like he treated our dog like his own. Appreciated the pictures he sent when he took her for a walk. His house is set up so the pets he’s watching have their own room with a bed and couch. We really appreciated that she wasn’t out in a kennel. We will definitely use Derrick again.”
“Julie and her family took incredible of our golden while we were out of the country!! This is our second time leaving Lily with Julie and we definitely will be again in the future. Thank you so much, again, Julie!! :)”

“Great boarding sitter! He showed so much love and care to my Archie sent me pictures and videos daily so we can clearly see how happy and relaxed he was with the new place. I thought my Archie was unwilling to come back with us at the end! Will definitely book next sitting ASAP so I will get the spot!”
“Marissa and her husband were so great with our high-energy pups! Her dog Dewey is sweet and playful with other dogs, and they came home exhausted. They had a clean, safe home and I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Surama took great care of my dogs while I was away on a family vacation. Poppy and Rem came home tired and happy! She was flexible with pickup times when my flight home got delayed. I'll be booking with Surama again in the future! You can't beat tired and happy dogs!”
“We loved having Riley stay with Rachel and her family! We were totally comfortable leaving our girl with them. There was an immediate connection with them and they truly love helping families by providing a very loving atmosphere and space. We will definitely book again!”

“The pictures she sent were great and showed Ziti having a wonderful time, she got some porch hangout sessions and tunnel play! Allison is very kind and has great communication. Thanks for taking care of my angel!”
“Marissa was just phenomenal for us!! We couldn’t recommend her more. From a great meet and greet to fantastic visits, we couldn’t be happier. We asked her to look after our cat, and it turned out to not be as easy as it sounds! The first day we found out she had been locked out, so the second vist she met with a locksmith who took a while to get there. She had lots of patience and was worried about our cat! I feel very grateful we had her watching our cat’”

He is very reliable and I have never had an instance that he wasn’t available. And Gracie just loves him! She has terrible separation anxiety, but I know I can leave without worry because she’ so enjoys being with Bryan.”

Pets are often curious and you need to make sure they’re not getting into harms way.

I can take your dog to the park, around the neighborhood, for a drive or just stand in the yard. It’s all up to you. I will follow your instructions without opinion.
“Meg was absolutely fantastic and a life saver. Coming from Chicago, We got last minute tickets to the IU/Purdue game and were then headed to Indy to see family after. Needed somewhere to put the doggy for 3-4 hours. Even though she already had 2 dogs to watch, she accommodated us with essentially a couple hours notice and took great care of tyko. Thank you so much!”

We used to love to take long strolls around the neighborhood and visit our pals at the local dog park. We would cook dinner and lounge around watching our favorite flicks. We even took car rides around town when we got bored. Over the years, we went through everything from crazy puppy phases, to professional command/leash training, and experienced all medical scares (labs love to chew on EVERYTHING) under the sun. Maple was a diabetic for 7 years. I can assist with any type of need ranging from long walks, simple belly rubs, to training help.

I am well educated on many types of medications and daily care pills. Whatever the need may be just ask me! EDUCATION: I am a graduate with my b.s. in buisness from Purdue. I currently am a stay at home mother, with much freedom to build my own schedule. Therefore I am always available for drop-ins and pup walks throughout the week and weekends.

Play time, walks, relaxing on the couch, eating treats, you know... just hanging out.
“Jo and Jess are great dog sitters! They watched my small dog, Coconut, for one day of daycare and I plan on utilizing their services again. Jo is clearly great with dogs; my pup warmed up to her almost instantly and their personal dog, Ruby, is exceptionally well-trained and friendly with both people and other dogs. I would definitely recommend Jo and Jess!”

About: Hello all! My name is Lisanne and I go by Liz. I have two awesome fur babies of my own (currently living with their doggo dad in Va), and have had pets for pretty much all of my life, dogs, cats, rabbits, you name it I’ve probably cared for it. I have raised many animals from babes to adults as well. I really just love to give all pets the love and attention they deserve and understand life can get busy but that doesn’t mean we want our four legged family to feel loved any less. I do not currently board at this point in time, but will happily come to you to house sit. I will send you quality iPhone portrait photos of your fur babe and our adventures on request 🤗 My schedule has changed from student to working full time, but I always try to keep my Rover account active and work with the new fur babies when I can!

I will make sure all of your recommendations and precautions are very well followed.

About: I have an absolute LOVE! For animals and I have had all kinds from raccoons to goats and to monkeys (obviously dogs though too!). So I know what it takes to care for someone’s pet. I studied at Purdue for Wildlife so if that doesn’t say something about my passion for animals and being outside with animals I don’t know what will! Also I will be doing this because I do love animals and not just for the money, the money is just something nice added on and to help with college expenses (I also am staying in the area during summer so I’m here all year round to become a regular with your family for years to come!). Knowing this you should be completely comfortable knowing your adorable family companion will be in not good but GREAT hands! I love going the extra mile for any animal in my care. I will always make sure I give my full attention/ available time slots to your pet. I will never try scheduling times if I’m unsure if I can fulfill your full needs. I will give all of the cuddles your pet needs (or give them space if they need it) and send tons of pictures. I will make sure they get everything needed such as medicine, food, and exercise.
About: Hi, I say 15 years of pet care experience but I have always had an animal or reptile in the house. Through the years/growing up my family has had a lab, dachshunds, and a lab/pit mix, all ranging from puppy to adult. I also have experience dog sitting for multiple coworkers while they are out of town, so my schedule is flexible as far as weekdays, weekends, and holidays. I absolutely love dogs and am willing to do what it takes to care for them. If they were to come to stay with me there would be a DIY fenced in area to play. Recently got a pup of my own so all must be open to her. She is a full blooded basset who loves to play sleep and cuddle. She loves people and others animals! Just wants someone to play and chase! I’m working full time which is 4 10 hr shifts. Typically no weekends. As long as they can manage to be cooped up that long im very flexible. I can do in home stays which is currently what I’ve been doing. If not they are welcome in my home. Can work with holidays and other needs Walking playing and special needs that may need to be provided. Cleaning up when necessary. Making sure they too feel comfortable with myself and dog of my own. Just let me know what your needs are!
“This was our first time using Rover. Beth was everything we could hope for. Our dog is pretty skittish, but Beth endeared herself to our anxious pup in no time. Beth communicated well, posted pictures, and did everything I asked of her. We highly recommend Beth and will definitely call on her again!”
About: I’ve always always had a soft spot in my heart for animals. My parents have always had a ton, from a bunch of different breeds of dogs to pigs, to chameleons, to bunnies. I’ve always had experience with animals, it’s odd if I don’t have one around! I have a kitty named Nala and a Cocker Spaniel named Goose. They are my pride and joy! I feel as though pet care is just as important as self care. Animals are there for us, as our support, therefore, they should be taken care of just as well. Making sure that your animal is not only healthy, but happy is a priority to me! Having a routine and making sure that all needs are met is a must. I feel as though your home is also your pets home, therefore, enabling them to have their own space is important. Also, making sure your animal is fed and watered and stimulated and energized plays a large role. Playing with toys or running around in the yard are both great ways of stimulating the brain!

I can tend to them and may need to leave the house for appointments no longer than 3 hours if needed but my husband also is home in the case I can’t be there 24/7. We keep your pets areas clean and cozy. Temperature controlled, access to water and we take them out to the yard when they need to potty and for walks if possible.
About: I grew up on a farm so I've always been around animals. At a very young age I started helping care for the animals which lead to me house sitting as well as walking them. I work 4 days a week and do this part time. I love spending time with my animals and love working taking care of them. We have a fenced in yard we have lots of toys for them to be entertained and well taken care of. And plenty treats for them to enjoy.
“Hannah always takes such good care of my pup! She goes above and beyond, has great communication, and she takes the cutest pics of him to send me while I’m at work. The best! ❤️”
About: I have owned dogs my whole life and had all different ages and breeds. I love taking dogs on walk and keeping them occupied and active! I have been walking and caring for other peoples dog for a year now but always had dogs of my own. I am currently a student at FGCU and only have classes twice a week for an hour each. I am currently unemployed as well so I will be home most of the day and have a lot of freedom. I don’t have a fenced in yard but my apartment has grass areas and trails to walk on. I live on the first floor and will take your dog out several times a day. I have no dogs in the apartment but I do have a kitten who doesn’t mind dogs or other cats.

“They (the whole family!) were wonderful with our dog, Cooper. Cooper had never stayed at someone else’s home before, so we were nervous how he would do. Rebecca was wonderful in sending us pictures and keeping us updated, reassuring us he was doing well. He seemed happy, both in the pictures and when we came to get him. I felt like he was well cared for and loved while we were gone. I would definitely use her again!”
“I couldn't have asked for better care for my sweet baby Myla! Kevin & Diana went above and beyond to make sure she felt at home, showering her with love and attention. They kept me updated with adorable photos and videos, which put my mind at ease while I was away. Myla came home happy, healthy, and clearly well-cared for. Thank you so much for your kindness and professionalism—I highly recommend your services to anyone looking for trustworthy and wonderful dog sitters!”
“Emily always takes great care of our Buddy! She is great about sending pictures and keeping us updated! We always can rest easy when she’s taking care of him! Very thankful for Emily!!”
“This was our first time leaving our boxer with anyone. Derrick was great. We felt like he treated our dog like his own. Appreciated the pictures he sent when he took her for a walk. His house is set up so the pets he’s watching have their own room with a bed and couch. We really appreciated that she wasn’t out in a kennel. We will definitely use Derrick again.”
“Julie and her family took incredible of our golden while we were out of the country!! This is our second time leaving Lily with Julie and we definitely will be again in the future. Thank you so much, again, Julie!! :)”
“We left our Nellie in the very capable hands of Alyssa while we were on vacation. Alyssa sent multiple daily updates and was so attentive to Nellie and her cautious disposition. We can’t thank Alyssa and her family enough for caring for our girl!”
“Great boarding sitter! He showed so much love and care to my Archie sent me pictures and videos daily so we can clearly see how happy and relaxed he was with the new place. I thought my Archie was unwilling to come back with us at the end! Will definitely book next sitting ASAP so I will get the spot!”
“Marissa and her husband were so great with our high-energy pups! Her dog Dewey is sweet and playful with other dogs, and they came home exhausted. They had a clean, safe home and I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Surama took great care of my dogs while I was away on a family vacation. Poppy and Rem came home tired and happy! She was flexible with pickup times when my flight home got delayed. I'll be booking with Surama again in the future! You can't beat tired and happy dogs!”
“We loved having Riley stay with Rachel and her family! We were totally comfortable leaving our girl with them. There was an immediate connection with them and they truly love helping families by providing a very loving atmosphere and space. We will definitely book again!”
“I’ve used a lot of sitters here on Rover, and Jason is the best by a long shot! His love for animals shows in how well he takes care of them; my anxious girl LOVES Jason and knows she’s going to have a fun day every time she sees him. He’s a great communicator, and will always act in the best interest of your pet. Not to mention, I’ve gotten some of the best quality photos of my pretty girl from Jason!”
About: I’ve loved dogs my entire life and have experience caring for family pets and helping friends with their dogs. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable. I enjoy being active and can provide walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I understand the importance of following owners’ instructions and will always communicate clearly and provide updates during visits. I’m currently working in the mornings until 2-4 pm and would love to spend my evenings crying for dogs who are I need. I am available during late hours during the weekdays and weekends. The safety and comfort of every pet is my top priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and routines. During walks and visits, I keep pets secure, use proper leash handling, and pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings. I provide regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for. In a client’s home, I respect their space, keep doors and gates secure, and make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and receiving plenty of attention and care.
“Jessica and David took great care of Mocha. They communicated well, sent us lovely photos of our pooch during her stay, and treated her to a walk, car ride and pup cup. They are true dog people! Absolutely would book them again.”
“Jane took amazing care of our 10 month old puppy, and her dog was a great playmate. I felt she cared for our pup as if she were her own. Each evening she’d send a detailed update and several photos and even videos of our happy pup. This resulted in the most worry-free arrangement we could have asked for. Great communication, reliable and kind interaction all around. Very grateful and we highly recommend Jane!”
“Absolutely loved! She was so patient and understanding. We had a lot of travel going on and she was so kind! She was amazing with the pup. She sent us photos every day and I could tell he was having a good time with her! Would absolutely book again!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Lori watching my dog! A great dog-friendly environment with a huge fenced yard. Plus Lori alleviated any worry I might’ve had right away. Couldn’t recommend more!”
