“I had surgery unexpectedly and Joy and Dan accepted my last minute request of dog boarding. My puppy was very excited to go back there and when I picked him up he was very happy. He had a very good visit with them. I am very satisfied with the care that they provided to my puppy.”

“Thank you Bernice for being so sweet to my little Peach! It was a really enjoyable experience from start to finish. Bernice communicated well and helped ease the transition to her care. We were able to book, meet up, and confirm the boarding within the week. I knew it was a good sign, when Peach started alerting us as we pulled up to Bernice's home. Peach seemed pretty excited to be back. During Peach's stay Bernice sent great pics. It was apparent that Peach had a great time in Bernice's big back yard and made good friends with Bernice's dog. I really appreciate the time and patience! Thank you again.”

“Monica and Dan took amazing care of my Lola while I was out of town for a week. They sent daily check-ins and I knew Lola was in great hands the entire time and getting a "vacation" of her own. Would love to have her stay with them again and 100% recommend. Thanks so much!”

“Najah was so great with Kash. So much so, he didn't act like he wanted to leave her. She kept me updated on his behavior and how ge was doing the entire time with texts & photos. I will definitely be boarding with Najah again.”


“Harlow had a wonderful stay! I appreciate you helping her fit into your pack and letting me know how well it was going. It made my trip so peaceful to know Harlow was having a blast with you! Thank you!”

“I had Barbara watch my almost 7 year old cat for 3 nights and 4 days. She made me feel comfortable and made sure my cat was taken care of while I was away. Barbara was sweet and let my cat outside the bedroom. Her litter was clean and followed the feeding instructions. I definitely recommend her”

“Mercedes is the best at what she does. My dog loves her and her family. Very loving and caring and gives constant updates so you feel at ease if you’re wondering how your pet is doing. Overall 5stars and would highly recommend. Thanks again Mercedes. See you next trip!”

“Laura did a great job watching our dog, Charlie. She sent pictures and told us how Charlie was doing each day. She was very good at communicating with us throughout the entire period. I would definitely leave Charlie with her again!”

“April was amazing with Korra! She had such a fun time and was clearly so loved during her stay. We got pictures and updates everyday. Again, could clearly see how much fun she was having! This was Korra first 4th of July as well, so we weren’t sure how she was going to react to the fireworks. April did an amazing job at letting us know what she had planned and how she was going to create a safe and calm environment for the dogs. We got pictures and updates on how she was doing/did. I am so glad Korra spent her first fireworks season with April. She was so well cared for. I could not recommend April more. She has so much love and care for her own dogs that she shares with other dogs. Korra is so happy to be apart of Petey’s and Shawna’s friend group!”

“It was a such a relief my pup was in a good hands I was away. Iman was so good at communicating sending me pictures and videos and my dog was so happy with her care. We will definitely book her again. Highly recommended.”

“Angie was so patient with Charlie and I love how she kept us updated with pictures and video, I will definitely use her services again and highly recommend her for your pet”

“I can't imagine a better person to leave our Parker Boy with! Heather took the best care of our dog and sent pictures and videos to keep our minds at ease while we were apart from him. She made him feel like a part of the family and made sure to do whatever she could to make him comfortable. We would recommend Heather to anyone looking for a sitter for their furry friends!!”

“Best experience ever. I was extremely nervous about leaving my dog at first, but Latasha made me feel comfortable. She was able to accommodate my last minute booking and sent photo updates throughout.”

“Sheree H. will FOREVER be our go to dog sitter whenever she is available. She displays genuine care for all of the fur babies and will notify you when she has concerns (i.e. not eating, not socializing, etc.). I love the daily updates, videos and overall professionalism.”

“Jesus was great with my poodle, he sent pictures or video of him daily. Jesus is caring and in tune to what your pet needs. He had so many toys for the dogs to play with. Jesus has a wonderful personality, and my dogs seem to love him. When I picked up my poodle Jesus had given him a bath, his bed was washed, and he was happy. I could not have picked a better person to keep my poodle. Jesus is the best of the best and my poodle enjoyed his time with Jesus and his family!”

“Our boy with separation anxiety came back from Kayla’s in much better shape than when he is boarded(not that they do anything wrong). Kayla responds quickly to any questions we have, and always keeps us updated with pictures! We would definitely be happy to send our guy to Kayla again.”

“Amy was amazing! I left my cat Dino in her care for over a week, and she was very communicative, kind, and caring for my cat. By the end of his stay, he was even cuddling with her throughout the night because of how comfortable he was. Will definitely book again! 10/10 service would recommend”

“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.”
“Nicole took wonderful care our our dog, which made going on vacation so much easier. Our dog is old, with health problems (including incontinence), and we were so glad to find someone willing to sit him in their home. When we picked up our dog, Nicole had washed all the towels and bedding we had provided to help manage his incontinence. She went above and beyond in caring for him, and we really appreciated it. For people with younger, healthy dogs, Nicole has a large property with plenty of outdoor space. We highly recommend Nicole.”

“Susan took great care of my 3 cats. I had to drop everything and travel last minute and her prompt response and daily updates put my mind at ease. A very nice lady, I could tell my babies were in good hands.”


“April was absolutely wonderful with our cat, Mable! We only asked her to stop by once a day, but she went above and beyond every single visit. She spent extra time with Mable, stayed to keep her company, and was so kind and attentive. She even surprised Mable with a few new toys to play with while we were away, which was such an incredibly thoughtful gesture that she absolutely didn’t have to do. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Mable was not only being cared for but genuinely loved while we were gone. We could tell April truly cares about the pets she watches, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and willing to go the extra mile. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”


“Lauren was amazing! I felt so comfortable having her in my home. She gave me peace of mind that my cat was not alone and well taken care of while I was out of town working. Would recommend and use her again.”


“Sydney provided drop in visits at my home for 8 cats…yes 8 cats. She was professional and attentive to details. She demonstrated effective communication skills and kept me up to date on the day to day activities of her care of my babies. Sydney is kind and compassionate and will ask for her services in the future. If you are looking for someone to care for your animals that you can trust, contact Sydney…🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”


“Jenna is the best! Nice peace of mind to have her check in on the dogs while we are out of town and she always accomodates their needs and our schedule, and keeps us updated with visits and pictures.”
“Taryn was great! Sent lots of updates and photos and was very responsible and reliable. I highly recommend her and hope she would want to look after my cat again sometime!”

“Kayla was awesome! She is very communicative and took care of my cat like her very own. She fed, socialized & played, and helped with the water & litter while I was away. She took lots of photos and left me lots of notes in the end so I knew exactly what she did! Thanks, Kayla! 🩷”

“Gaby was amazing! She did EVERYTHING we asked and sent so many cute pictures of our little kitties! It made our day every time she did this and we're going to ask for HER SPECIFICALLY next time we need to go out of town. Thanks so much Gaby!”

“Coretta did an amazing job taking care of our cats while we were away. She went above and beyond - taking care of unforeseen issues that popped up and sending thoroughly documented (and cute) reports after each visit. I would recommend her to anyone as a trustworthy, compassionate, and knowledgeable caretaker for your animals.”

“Heather takes very good care of my pets when I am out of town. She responds quickly to my Rover pet sitter appointment scheduling and has availability for when we are going on vacation. I recommend her as a pet sitter !!!”

“David helped me with a last-minute request for a drop-in visit. He's watched Sam multiple times, and that was comforting. Plus, David made the trip on a day when we were getting hit by a snowstorm. I'm grateful for his help and care with Sam.”


“This was our first time using Rover. My husband and I went on a week-long trip, and we couldn't find anyone to watch our 2 kitties overnight. I was nervous because I usually like to have family watch them, as I know them. After meeting Khalia, I could tell she cared for animals, and it made me feel better. She did a great job with our little chaos gremlins, and they felt safe with her! She left everything nice and clean, respected our home, and gave us updates with pictures. The pics meant a lot! I'm a worried cat momma, so this helped with us being so far away. We'll continue to reach out to her when we need a cat sitter!”

“Crystal is the best!!!! She watched our cat for 5 days and I was very worried leaving my cat alone for that long since she does not warm up to people quickly, but Leah loved her so much!!! So thankful for the time she spent at our house and taking care of Leah like she were her own. Highly recommend!!”

“Joy was absolutely wonderful with my dog! She provided a safe, fun, and caring environment, and it was clear how much she truly loves animals. My pup came home happy and relaxed. This was my first time using Rover and Joy. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter! 🐾”

“It was a relief with all of our funeral planning taking place in Chicago, to know that Ms. Bernice was going to take care of Niko. This was his first time at any day care and it seems that this will help us as we work with him to socialize with other dogs. Overall, she was very cooperative, reliable and conveniently located to our hotel. We would use her services again.”

“Loved the pictures Rachel took of Sierra during daycare! I could tell Sierra was having a good visit & especially enjoyed the backyard space. Thank you, Rachel, for taking good care of my girl! I really appreciate it.”

“April was such a fantastic sitter! She has years of experience and you can tell she cares for your pet! She was attentive to our Aussie’s special needs and we are thankful for her flexibility and her kindness.”

About: I have had pets for 40 years and taken care of others' pets for 30 years. I am a reliable, peppy, retired teacher and counselor. Currently I have open availability. I am retired and want to build my pet/home sitting business. I welcome any and all requests for pet or home sitting as I build my business. I do not have any pets of my own. I lost my precious kitty last year and am not ready to add a new pet to my home. I do however have 3 grand kitties and 3 granddogs that I take care of and walk. As a caregiver to your pet I can provide focused attention to your pet. I do not have a fenced yard but am ready, willing and able to provide excellent walks for your pet.
“Danielle was WONDERFUL! This was my first River experience. Not only did Danielle take the time to answer my questions before booking, but the care itself for my dogs was amazing. Danielle sent me pictures throughout the day and was so kind to my dogs. Will definitely continue to use her!!”

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. Family and friends have relied on me for decades to take care of their animals. Growing up on a farm helped give me a lifelong affinity for animals. I’m a teacher who is off all summer. I have plenty of time to fill and would love to look after your animals, either in my home, as a drop in, or just a walk. I have a fenced in backyard, two amazing labs who love other dogs, and a wife and daughter who love dogs as much as I do.
“I am grateful to have found Iman. I feel good knowing my Gigi is in good hands. I was worried about finding quality care that could accommodate my late work schedule. I’ve never left my furbaby with anyone outside of my immediate family, it was scary. I had looked at Rover previously but never used their services, now I am so glad I did. Rover helped me find the best care for Gigi and Iman has been great accommodating my late work schedule. Iman set my heart and mind at ease and I am so thankful for the love & care she provides my fur-baby Gigi and I are both grateful for Iman ❤️”

“Dayana was a great dogsitter to our puppy Honey. She sent pictures and videos throughout the day of Honey having fun and being taken on walks, and she was very nice and communicative. I will definitely be reaching back out for more dog sitting with Dayana!”

“Anna was an amazing dog sitter! She sent us great pictures and updates throughout the day, was very communicative, and Moose seemed to have an amazing time with her! 10/10 would use her again!”

“She is such a great person inside and out! Did a doggy date care to have my puppy aquatinted with her kids and other dogs she was boarding and everything went well! She even gave my puppy a bath. I was very comfortable and satisfied to know my dog was and is in good hands! Highly recommend!!!”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs in my home my entire life, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of who I am and I truly love spending time with them! I have experience walking, feeding, playing with, and caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your dog, so I treat every pup like they’re my own. Whether your dog is staying with me for the day or just needs a walk, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and, of course, lots of love and cuddles! I’m dependable, patient, and attentive, and I’m always happy to follow your dog’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide. My goal is for both you and your pup to feel comfortable, safe, and happy while they’re in my care! 🐾 I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available for pet care throughout the week! I’m happy to provide daytime care, walks, drop-ins, and plenty of attention throughout the day. As a teacher, my schedule may change once the school year begins, but I plan to continue offering pet care before and after school, in the evenings, and on weekends. I’m flexible and happy to work with you to find a routine that works best for your pet! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding schedule, walking preferences, and any specific instructions you provide. When caring for dogs in my home, I’ll make sure they have a comfortable, safe environment with plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and opportunities to relax. I’m also happy to accommodate crates, special routines, or other needs to help your dog feel as comfortable and at home as possible.

“Susan is awesome! I highly recommend and will definitely continue booking with her as long as she is available! She has done drop-in visits for my Chloe while I’m out of town. Susan is very attentive to what I ask and what my doggo needs. She sends lots of pictures/videos and keeps me updated on how things are going. Thank you Susan!”


“Ashley has been absolutely amazing to work with! She’s reliable, flexible, and has been terrific with both of our dogs. They get genuinely excited when she arrives and happily head out on their walks with her without any hesitation. It’s clear how comfortable they are with her, which gives us tremendous peace of mind. We couldn’t recommend Ashley more highly!”

“Joy and Dan are great! My dog has stayed at their house before and this time we booked dog walking. They will always be my go to people on this app because I know my dogs at in amazing hands. Thanks again!”
“April is seriously a gem. She has been so kind and patient with my dogs. I was so nervous to start this process on Rover but I am so glad I found her. Not only has she been so caring, but you can just tell how much she loves what she does and goes above and beyond. Thank you so much April!!”
“Kayla is wonderful! I was so nervous having to leave my babies, Cash and Milo, for longer hours than usual. She did a great job with introductions and treated them as she would treat her own. She updated me throughout the walk and sent me photos which I really appreciated. She made sure their bottoms were clean and they had fresh water before leaving. I felt reassured and comfortable throughout the process and I know my dogs enjoyed spending time with her. I would and have recommended to Kayla to other friends and family!”


“Gillian communicates well and answers my messages in a timely fashion. She is on time for her visits. My pup Ransom is usually hesitant the first few times around a new sitter, but warmed to Gillian and went on a walk with her no problem. Thank you.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have raised several from young puppies into adulthood. I currently care for my three dogs—Nala, Sage, and Willow—and have experience with feeding, walking, playtime, basic puppy care, and giving each dog the patience and attention they deserve. I’ll treat your pet like they’re one of my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I receive my work schedule monthly, so I keep my availability up to date and am happy to work with pet owners to find times that fit both of our schedules. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort, and provide a loving, dependable environment while you’re away.
About: I worked full time for a shelter and loved working with every animal there. Meeting them at their level so that their needs were completely fulfilled was my passion. Whether they were high or low energy, dim or bright, friendly or not, I thrived on figuring out what would make the the most adoptable and what would make them most comfortable in the harsh shelter environment. It was a difficult and demanding job at times especially when I needed to provide first aid or medication/therapy for ailing animals but I always enjoyed coming home knowing I did something that meant something to those parent-less pets. I also had the lovely opportunity to work the social media for the shelter and take photos and videos of each animal to best display their personalities to the wider public who wouldn't normally see them otherwise. I currently work part time with very flexible hours so I am frequently available to provide service to both my own pets and others. I find it very fulfilling to be able to make time for my own furry friends! Working in a shelter environment I often met many animals at their lowest when they were beyond scared and upset. I got exposure to many dogs and cats that were horribly unadapted to life around people and had personalities on either end of the spectrum. I am more than comfortable with animals that are more aggressive in both appearance and personality and was frequently tasked with retrieving abandoned or lost animals using the company van.
About: I have had animals all my life, especially dogs amongst a few small pets. I have two dogs myself and I am training all of them with basic commands. I have 5 years of experience in training American pitbulls mixes to have as pets around children and other small animals. Something that sets me apart from others is that I recognize dogs and cats behavior such as signs of discomfort. I have personal experience with raising and caring for dogs of all sizes. I want animals to be comfortable, safe, and healthy. This may be disconcerting for owners that expect their pet to have free roam. I would expect multiple walks and sleeping in their dog beds considering the pets disposition as well as updates about pet stay. For house sitting, I will be willing to adjust prices if my own dogs are allowed to accompany me (not required). I am currently doing delivery services such as Grubhub and Doordash so I set the times I work. I have a flexible schedule and do not leave my home very often. I have 2 small dogs that are playful and dog friendly. I do not have a fenced yard, but I do use the long tie out leashes and outdoor playpens. I recently made a potty area for my dogs. I clean and disinfect it multiple times a week with natural products.
“Danielle was a more than excellent dog walker for my rambunctious 11 month old boxer puppy Sasha. If i could give her more than 5 stars i would!!! Sasha and Danielle both seemed to have had a really great time on their walk and i felt beyond comfortable trusting Danielle with keeping my fur baby safe on their walk. Danielle even listened to all of my concerns and she paid very good attention to my current training cues for Sasha's leash manners! She sent tons of photos from thier walk and my girl looked so happy in all of them!!! I was just totally overjoyed with Danielle's services i will definitely be booking her again very soon and reccomend her to anyone looking for an amazing, caring, patient, and safe person to walk or watch their fur babies! Thank you for taking my girl out for an amazing time, we can't wait for next time!?❤”

About: I’ve grown up and been around animals my entire life! I am comfortable with animals of all shapes and sizes. I spent my college years dog sitting! I’m currently off for the summer, so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur baby!! During the school year I am open weeknights and weekends! I always adhere to the boundaries set by the owner, and always do my best to honor the routine your animal is so used to!
About: Hello, I'm Katie! I helped my mom run a cat rescue for over 8 years (that includes waking up every 2 hours to bottle feed, giving medication, handling moody kitties, cleaning up constant messes, etc). Since then, I've been trusted to pet sit for friends, coworkers, and family members. I have slightly more experience house sitting with cats than dogs, but I love all pets equally and would be so happy to meet them! I offer overnight stays/house sitting, drop-ins, and dog walking. I am currently pet sitting full time. I am available on weekdays and weekends however early or late as needed, and for as many drop-ins as needed. My schedule is very flexible! The care and safety of your pet is the most important thing to me. I make sure to keep human food out of reach along with plastic bags, cords, or other potentially harmful items. I always try to keep pets entertained, happy, and out of trouble. I am a very clean person and will never leave a mess behind, I can assure your home will be well looked after. I can provide photo or text updates as often as needed!

“Nicole took wonderful care our our dog, which made going on vacation so much easier. Our dog is old, with health problems (including incontinence), and we were so glad to find someone willing to sit him in their home. When we picked up our dog, Nicole had washed all the towels and bedding we had provided to help manage his incontinence. She went above and beyond in caring for him, and we really appreciated it. For people with younger, healthy dogs, Nicole has a large property with plenty of outdoor space. We highly recommend Nicole.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I'm glad I found Jesseeka. She was very responsive and sent us photos and updates. When we picked up Bella, she was super excited and I can tell she loved Jesseeka. I will definitely use Jesseeka's services again. Thank you so much.”

“I’m so glad I found David to watch my Sam. We are new to the area and I haven’t traveled in awhile. David is very responsive, conscientious and communicative. He sent lots of pictures and updates, let me know how Sam was getting along with his dogs. Sam has a knee injury right now and he kept an eye on it for me, too. We’ve already got a second stay booked.”

“This is our second time with Susseth, and she was great! Quick responses and updates. Our fur baby was excited to see her and that meant a lot to us to see his reaction ☺️ We won’t hesitate to visit again!”


“Cari did an amazing job we were able to go over there a week before and have a little mini playdate to meet her and her family and that made it so much more comfortable for me to leave my two babies behind for a few days. She kept me up to date and sent pictures while we were away and we were very happy and comfortable with her decision to use her”

“Jordan was very accommodating. We ran into several obstacles coming home from our trip and were late picking up our dog. Jordan was very understanding and we are thankful for her patience. Our dog warmed up to her family, and got along with everyone there. We're hoping to use Jordan again within the next few weeks for our vacation. :)”

“Our dog had so much fun playing in the yard with the other dogs! It was very easy and convenient to drop her off and pick her up. After seeing the backyard and meeting Elanore and her husband I wasn’t worried at all about our pup. They sent us updates and overall was a great experience.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Shayna. She watched our 2 dogs at her house for a week. One of our dogs gets very nervous around new people and can be reactive. He reacted well at our meet and greet and Shayna felt comfortable that he would do well and he did. I felt at ease seeing how well they were doing with her daily updates and pictures. She really treated them like they were her own. We will definitely be using her services again and would highly recommend her to others.”

“Meredith was just amazing. She handled my crazy dog along with her family and dogs like a champ. My pup seemed to greatly enjoy herself. Along with a happy pup, my dog came home with a few more manners. We will use her in the future for sure. 😊”

“Juliana is amazing. She was able to accommodate on such a last minute booking. Her eager to understand your pet is beyond grateful. She cares to the needs of the your pet in every aspect including teaching and developing. We look forward to holding onto Juliana for future bookings and continuing seeing her grow with her pet care and support. Thanks for everything Juliana, we appreciate you so much.”
