“Azure was just amazing with our puppy. We had planned an out of town trip and needed a place for our puppy with short notice. Azure had great reviews and after a successful meet and greet, we dropped off my pup (Asta). Azure sent videos and photos daily. Asta looked so happy which made our family feel happy about picking the right person. Asta was well cared for and found a life long friend with Azure and her family. Thank you so much! We will be back :)”
“Natalie is absolutely the best, very flexible and amazing with our dogs! So grateful for her and her family, the dogs always have an amazing time and receive unparalleled care. Thank you for taking Maverick and Rhea for a few days!”
“Thank you for taking great care of our birdie girl! She had so much fun making friends and loved all the extra snuggles! We can't wait to boom with you again! 🤗💕”
“Anne was just amazing with my dog Stella! Daily updates to ease my mind during my week-long trip and plenty of photos of my happy pup, who seemed like she didn’t want to leave when I picked her up because she had been so loved and spoiled :) Anne will definitely be my go-to sitter for any future trips, she’s absolutely a kind and lovely person who will adore your fur baby. Thanks again, Anne!! ❤️??”
“We would give Stephanie more than 5 stars if we could. Our dog loves staying at her house and we love that she always provides a wonderful enriching environment for him. Our little scaredy-dog is starting to come out of his shell thanks to Stephanie, her hubby Chris and their cats.”
“Wai was amazing! She took a lot of care to ask lots of questions to best accommodate our dog, sent us daily updates and photos, and far exceeded what was expected! I will be using her from now on”
“Finally found a great boarding place for Harley! Harley had a nice large space and outdoor run. In a quite county setting, which is just like home away from home. It was nice to be able to use a camera app to peek in on him from time to time. Harley was calm and happy during his boarding. This was a fantastic boarding experience for Harley, which takes the stress out of leaving him at boarding in the future.”
“Cassandra did a great job taking care of Banjo for two nights. Communication was excellent (photos and videos, along with messages about how he was doing), and Cassandra was willing to accommodate drop-off and pickup requests to fit my schedule for the weekend. I have always been apprehensive about boarding my dogs at a kennel if I have to go out of town for more than one night. Cassandra made Banjo feel at home and kept him in a normal, relaxed environment and routine.”
“Excellent care! My cat and dog stayed with Tiffany for a few days, and my dog came back smelling like lavender, which was super nice. She took very good care of my fur babies and was a strong communicator through and through. I highly recommend!”
“We were so pleased by the care received from Mariana and Mark. They treated our girls like their own. Huge relief when you can find a sitter that’s reliable when traveling.”
“Rose did a wonderful job watching our Ember! She stayed with her for 5 days while we were out of town, sent lots of pictures, and kept me updated. When we met prior to Ember’s stay, I could see her love of dogs in her manner of communicating with Ember. Rose strikes me as one of those people that just has a special connection and understanding of dogs that goes beyond what normal people see. She also has dogs of her own so I was happy Ember had some friends to play with! I will happily entrust her to watch Ember again for our future travels. Thank you so much Rose! ?”
“Joscelyn does a very good job with my dogs. They are always happy to go to her home and play with her kids and the other dogs. They always seem very happy and they are excited to get some play time.”
“Heather is very reliable. I’ve used her several times and am happy with her care! She’s very responsive and timely to my inquiries. Would definitely recommend.”
“Karisa was an amazing pair for Eddie. We got to visit beforehand for a meet and greet. They have a huge yard which I am sure Eddie saw a ton of. This experience was made so easy and allowed my son and myself to visit family for a well overdue visit. Our minds were at peace and our pup was healthy and full of spirits when we came to pick up. Please book with zero hesitations!!! If they had a 6th star to choose, I would have selected.”
“"Heather was absolutely wonderful with Lucky! It’s never easy leaving him, but she made me feel so comfortable. He was well-loved and well-cared for the entire time. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!"”
“Emily did so awesome with our husky Loki while we were on vacation! We loved that he was able to have a fenced in yard and a bunch of other dogs to play with. Emily also sent us pictures and updates every day, which I appreciated a lot! Overall I would highly recommend Emily for boarding and will be booking with her next time I’m out of town.”
“I was so nervous to find a caregiver for our Zoey. The reason is Zoey is a 3 year old epileptic boxer. Even though her seizures are controlled I was so worried I wouldn’t be able to find someone to keep her overnight and be responsible for her medication. Then I found Jennifer on Rover. I set up a meet and greet and I just knew Jennifer was ready for the challenge. We set up an overnight stay while my husband and I had to be out of town. Jennifer sent so many pictures and updates. It was wonderful!! Zoey was in great hands and received amazing care. We are so thankful for her love of animals and for the more “needy” animals. Jennifer was a rockstar!!”
“Ebby had a great stay with Kristen! Kristen was very kind and made us feel very confident about leaving Ebby with her overnight. Ebby was nervous when we first got there, but Kristen made sure she felt safe and was very understanding. I got updates and pictures while we were gone. Ebby loved playing with Kristen's kitty! We have already booked Kristen for another weekend. Thanks, Kristen!!”

“Tracy did a very efficient job in caring for our two felines! He did the things we asked of him in managing their care and he sent us pics each time he visited. Thank you so much Tracy!”
“This was our second time booking Edmy for cat-sitting. They were amazing and took really good care of our babies. We received daily updates with pictures and the cats warmed up to them quickly. Would highly recommend.”
“Paris was wonderful with my anti social cat! Jupiter hides under the bed and generally is scared of anyone she doesn’t know so she did not see much of her, but kept me updated as much as possible. She sent me pictures of food and water bowls, kept the litter box clean and sent me photos of Jupiter whenever she could. She was very sweet and very helpful as well with everything! I highly recommend Paris❤️”
“This was my first time using Rover and Bree made it a very easy and simple process. She went above and beyond and provided constant communication! I highly recommend her!”
“She was amazing! My cats have a weird routine but she was very great and accommodating! Sent lots of pictures which I loved, and the cats loved having her around. Would book again!”
“Tonie was really responsive and sent a lot of photos of my cat while I was on vacation. I had peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Will rebook in the future!”
“Amara was so kind! She watched my cat for a few days when I was out of town. She was communicative, friendly, and gentle with my cat. I trusted she would give the best care to my pet and she did not disappoint. She even left me a little welcome home card and gift 🩷🐾 I was very happy!”
About: Hi I am Stephanie. I am a life long dog owner and lover of all animals. I currently have a Cavapoo named Sophie who is my little ball of attitude. I have experience with all kinds of dogs, labs, cocker spaniel, doodles, German shepherds,and French Bulldogs. I am willing to watch in your home as my girl isn't fond of guests. I work full time but depending on the area of town I am available for midday walks and care as well more and evening. I would love to provide amazing care for your pup while you enjoy a relaxing vacation or are out of town for any reason. I currently work full time on the north side of town but am located in New Haven in. I get 1 hr for lunch and if you are located huntertown or in this area I can definitely do midday walks and cuddles. Walks, let on lead, electric fence or anyway you prefer your pets to do their business. Feeding, playing and of course cuddles to begin and end the day.
About: I have owned dogs all my life. I am attentive and caring. I wanted to be a veterinarian before entering corporate America! Spending time with your pet is my dopamine! I work full time office job and would love to fill some free time loving your pet while you’re away! I will be attentive to your pets preferences and schedule. I have no pets if my own so their needs are my top priority! I live in a quiet and safe neighborhood that is perfect for your pet to spend time in!
“Shamma is a great Sitter! We boarded our cat with Shamma for 6 days. She took excellent care for our cat and sent us regular updates with pics and videos. I would highly recommend using Shamma as your cat sitter over a cat hotel where cats tend to catch an exception (happened to our cat previously) or are locked in a cage. We can tell our cat had a good time when we picked her up and we will definitely book Shamma again in the future.”
About: Boarding- No longer offering boarding services. Drop in visits at your home- Flexible schedule and cats are welcome also! Play time, walk, feeding, bathing are all welcome activities. I love animals of all types and look forward to caring for you for baby. No dog to small or big, I love all equally! 3 years of experience fostering for the Warsaw Animal Shelter including expecting mommas, newborns, bottle feeding, and special needs.

In your home visits and walks only. Please feel free to message me with any questions you may have. Thanks!
“I can’t say enough good things about Farrah! She was absolutely incredible with my golden doodle, Goldie. Not only did she take her on a great walk and send the cutest updates, but she also went the extra mile—literally and figuratively. When I got home, I saw she had thoughtfully refreshed Goldie’s food and water bowls, and even spruced up her bed area so it was tidy and cozy. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pet like their own, but that’s exactly what Farrah did. Goldie was relaxed, happy, and clearly adored her. I felt 100% confident and grateful knowing she was in such caring hands. We’ll definitely be booking again!”
About: Hello fellow dog owners! My name is Kevin and I am a fun, loving dog person! My partner and I are new to Fort Wayne, recently moving here from Anchorage, Alaska (yes, we drove!). With a 14 year old senior pooch of my own, I understand the incredible bond we have with our beloved friends. I have had Brita since she was 2 months old, and now that she is a subtle senior, her and I have built a friendship that is forever lasting. Having to leave your best friend at home alone is one of the greatest fears and anxieties a pet owner could imagine! That is why I want to help out other dog owners and make sure your fur-baby is well taken care of and provided for, so you can feel stress free. Having a pet of my own has really built up a trust of my circle around me. Friends and family members feel comfortable asking me to watch their animal from time to time, which is a very rewarding feeling. With me your pooch will have plenty of play time, walks and many belly rubs! UPDATE: My partner and I recently adopted a 4-month-old Beagle puppy named Juno! My amazing senior dog, Brita (my trusty co-pilot), has completely embraced her role as big sister and is already helping teach Juno the house rules. Welcoming a new puppy into our home has brought back so many great memories from when Brita was little, while also giving me hands-on experience with puppy training all over again. It's been a wonderful reminder of the patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement that help young dogs thrive! Whether you have an energetic new puppy or a sweet senior dog, I'm confident I can provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to their needs. My experience caring for both a senior dog and a growing puppy has given me a deeper understanding of how to meet dogs where they are at every stage of life :) I am currently not working, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pup! I am available during the week and most weekends. When I am at a clients home, I make sure I ask all the necessary questions, and follow their detailed instructions for their pet. I care for them the same way I would at my house. All the attention! Having used Rover for my own dog, I am the type of person that needs reassurance that my pet is okay. I will send you all of the photos, videos and texts that will keep your mind calm. It is a huge safety factor for me to know my animal is being taken care of.
“Stormy was very kind and responsive. My cat spent nearly a week with her and I got updates / pictures every day. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in great hands ☺️”

About: I have been around dogs since the day I was born, and my family has always had at least two dogs in our family at all times! I have also always been a trusted source when it comes to watching family, friends, and neighbors' animals! For example, I have watched puppies, dogs, kittens, cats, fish, and even guinea pigs. Two of my own dogs are Leader Dogs for the blind moms, so I have experience with all different kinds of situations and ages when it comes to dogs. I also have experience with elder dogs as I have had 4 dogs pass from old age and have experience with health problems in dogs as well. I currently do not have a job so I am available any day at any time. I do have a prior commitment from July 23rd-27th and I leave for college at the end of August. I have a ton of experience when it comes to safety and caring for pets. My dogs go outside with a leash on, especially during walks. If there is a fence for the pets to use I will keep my eyes on them at all times, because no one ever knows what can happen. I have experience with putting pets into a crate or cage if necessary.
About: I think what sets me apart from other individuals is my patience and love to pets. I’m a genuine guy with plenty of time in my schedule to take great and attentive care of any beloved animal.

I’m also brilliant with keeping routine. I get along great with all animals. Building trust with a loved pet can be such a reward. It’s truly soul bonding. While I’m not in the position to currently house my own cat or dog doesn’t mean I’m not passionate about taking care of other furry friends.

About: I am a loving mother of 2 and I will care for your pets as if they were one of the kids. I have dog sit before and loved it. When I was younger I use to volunteer at the animal shelter with my great-grandma and that's the reason I love animals today. I have flexible hours and can work around your schedule, anything you need I can do from dog baths to walks at the park. We also adopted a cat a couple of years ago, and we just love him to pieces. We also just adopted a dog that we have previously sat for. I currently work at a nursing home, my boyfriend and I work opposite schedules so someone is always at home with your fur babies. Also with it being summer I have my two kiddos help out. I will make sure each animal has proper care including a clean safe cozy shelter, clean water, regular bathroom breaks, going on walks for at least half an hour, who knows it could be longer, and so much more!
About: Animals have always had a special place in my heart. Growing up on a farm, I was surrounded by creatures big and small—everything from conures to bison. From an early age, I learned not just how to care for animals, but how to truly respect them. That foundation deepened over the years into a lifelong appreciation for the bond we share with our animal companions. Adopting my dog Uschi was life-changing—she taught me about unconditional love, loyal companionship, and even nudged me toward a healthier lifestyle. That experience reinforced my commitment to providing pets with the same love and care I give my own. I understand how important it is to feel confident when leaving your pet in someone else’s care. That’s why I prioritize consistency, comfort, and safety. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, respect any dietary needs, and make sure they feel calm and cared for every step of the way. I can’t wait to run, play, and give your sweet baby the love they deserve! I currently work remote at my own pace, so I have full availability any time of day, morning or over night. Complete flexibility to your schedule. My overnight stays are flexible and can be tailored to your pet’s specific needs. I’m happy to take care of small home tasks like bringing in the mail or taking out the trash—just let me know what you'd like. We can also go over feeding schedules, walk routines, and note any areas that are off-limits to ensure everything runs smoothly. I understand that separation anxiety is common, and I approach each visit with patience, empathy, and a calming presence. Your pet’s comfort and emotional well-being are my top priority, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, seen, and cared for in your absence. I’m also very mindful of pet nutrition—no treats or dietary changes will be made without your clear consent. I’m available for a wide range of time frames and am happy to adapt to your pet’s rhythm and routine, providing consistency, comfort, and a little extra love while you're away.
About: I have been pet sitting for about 10 years and have had many pets of my own. My recent goldendoodle dealt with Addison’s disease his whole life, so I have experience dealing with dogs with high anxiety and attachment issues. I am a freelance violinist in the Ann Arbor area :) I am currently home for most of the day so I’ll be fully available to care for your pup :) I enjoy lots of outdoor activities and going on long walks. I provide daily walks, up to 3 times a day, as many potty breaks as needed, as well as lots of cuddles and attention through out the day.

“Azure was just amazing with our puppy. We had planned an out of town trip and needed a place for our puppy with short notice. Azure had great reviews and after a successful meet and greet, we dropped off my pup (Asta). Azure sent videos and photos daily. Asta looked so happy which made our family feel happy about picking the right person. Asta was well cared for and found a life long friend with Azure and her family. Thank you so much! We will be back :)”
“Natalie is absolutely the best, very flexible and amazing with our dogs! So grateful for her and her family, the dogs always have an amazing time and receive unparalleled care. Thank you for taking Maverick and Rhea for a few days!”
“Thank you for taking great care of our birdie girl! She had so much fun making friends and loved all the extra snuggles! We can't wait to boom with you again! 🤗💕”
“We would give Stephanie more than 5 stars if we could. Our dog loves staying at her house and we love that she always provides a wonderful enriching environment for him. Our little scaredy-dog is starting to come out of his shell thanks to Stephanie, her hubby Chris and their cats.”
“Wai was amazing! She took a lot of care to ask lots of questions to best accommodate our dog, sent us daily updates and photos, and far exceeded what was expected! I will be using her from now on”
“Finally found a great boarding place for Harley! Harley had a nice large space and outdoor run. In a quite county setting, which is just like home away from home. It was nice to be able to use a camera app to peek in on him from time to time. Harley was calm and happy during his boarding. This was a fantastic boarding experience for Harley, which takes the stress out of leaving him at boarding in the future.”
“Cassandra did a great job taking care of Banjo for two nights. Communication was excellent (photos and videos, along with messages about how he was doing), and Cassandra was willing to accommodate drop-off and pickup requests to fit my schedule for the weekend. I have always been apprehensive about boarding my dogs at a kennel if I have to go out of town for more than one night. Cassandra made Banjo feel at home and kept him in a normal, relaxed environment and routine.”
“Excellent care! My cat and dog stayed with Tiffany for a few days, and my dog came back smelling like lavender, which was super nice. She took very good care of my fur babies and was a strong communicator through and through. I highly recommend!”
“We were so pleased by the care received from Mariana and Mark. They treated our girls like their own. Huge relief when you can find a sitter that’s reliable when traveling.”
“Rose did a wonderful job watching our Ember! She stayed with her for 5 days while we were out of town, sent lots of pictures, and kept me updated. When we met prior to Ember’s stay, I could see her love of dogs in her manner of communicating with Ember. Rose strikes me as one of those people that just has a special connection and understanding of dogs that goes beyond what normal people see. She also has dogs of her own so I was happy Ember had some friends to play with! I will happily entrust her to watch Ember again for our future travels. Thank you so much Rose! ?”
“Joscelyn does a very good job with my dogs. They are always happy to go to her home and play with her kids and the other dogs. They always seem very happy and they are excited to get some play time.”
“Heather is very reliable. I’ve used her several times and am happy with her care! She’s very responsive and timely to my inquiries. Would definitely recommend.”
“"Heather was absolutely wonderful with Lucky! It’s never easy leaving him, but she made me feel so comfortable. He was well-loved and well-cared for the entire time. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!"”
“Emily did so awesome with our husky Loki while we were on vacation! We loved that he was able to have a fenced in yard and a bunch of other dogs to play with. Emily also sent us pictures and updates every day, which I appreciated a lot! Overall I would highly recommend Emily for boarding and will be booking with her next time I’m out of town.”
“I was so nervous to find a caregiver for our Zoey. The reason is Zoey is a 3 year old epileptic boxer. Even though her seizures are controlled I was so worried I wouldn’t be able to find someone to keep her overnight and be responsible for her medication. Then I found Jennifer on Rover. I set up a meet and greet and I just knew Jennifer was ready for the challenge. We set up an overnight stay while my husband and I had to be out of town. Jennifer sent so many pictures and updates. It was wonderful!! Zoey was in great hands and received amazing care. We are so thankful for her love of animals and for the more “needy” animals. Jennifer was a rockstar!!”
“April and her family were great hosts for our dog. Finn got much attention. I appreciated the photos April sent as well. I knew Finn was in good hands. Thanks.”
“Rebecca is fantastic. My doggo loves hanging out with her. She gives him lots of walks, attention, and hang time, while following our outline for his specific needs. He’s very calm and happy with her.”
“I definitely recommend Kayla, she took care of my labrador puppy Arya for 4 nights. When I brought Arya she did not walk with her leash because she did not want to and when I went to look for her Kayla had taught her. Kayla take care of her with a lot of love, teach her new things, trained Arya and help her share with other dogs and cats. I am very satisfied and happy to be able to entrust the care of my baby Arya to such a committed person. Arya was really happy and have a great time, Kayla even give her new toys!!”
