“Indy loved his week with Diana and Kevin. Lots of walks, playtime and even snuggled in bed! Loved all the picture updates we received and look forward to booking again for our next trip!”
“Aaron provided amazing service exceeding all my expectations! His communication was excellent sending updates everyday even multiple times a day. He offered FaceTime calls with my furry friend and treated him just like family! I will definitely rebook and I advise anyone else to do the same!”
“Sherri went above and beyond for our little Koko. She stayed in touch exceptionally both when things were not going well and when they were improving. Our little girl had a couple of issues and Sherri was immediately on top of it and did more than was expected to care for our dog. I would absolutely recommend Sherri for anyone needing to board their dog.”
“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.”
“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 awesome! Our dog got along great with her dogs, and I trusted that Crystal was taking great care of Stella. She sent multiple photos and a video during Stella's stay and had great communication overall. We will definitely book her for all our future dog care needs.”
“Loved Lynelle as Duke’s sitter! Felt he was well taken care of. We got plenty of updates while on our trip. Will definitely have her watch him again if ever needed 🥰”
“Sarah and Justin and super! They love your dog just like their own! Great about providing updates and pictures! Our doggie came home happy as could be! Will definitely book again!”
“I left my dog with Diandra, who's home is clean and organized, her dogs are calm and submissive. My dog Annie, I believe had a great time spending time with them I would not hesitate rebooking with Diandra.”
“Carrie did an execellent job taking care of our dog, Floki. She also provided my spouse and I with regular updates while we were away! Her level of professionalism was a real treat!”
“Alyssa was awesome! She was super understanding even when we were a little late picking up our fur-baby. She was very communitive and sent pictures as this was the first time he was watched by anyone. She had a clean home and plenty of room for him to play. Very very happy with our experience I definitely recommend her! 10/10 will ask her to watch him again in the near future.”
“Rachel & her family are so sweet & will go above & beyond to care for your furbaby. My Bernese Mt Dog puppy was happy with her stay for 7nightd & got plenty of care, attention, play time & walks. We're very grateful to find the perfect petsitter!.”
“My dogs have never had such an easy drop off! They instantly bonded with Julie’s friendly dogs and went off to explore. A great experience for our dogs. We’ll look to book again with Julie!”
About: I have been working at Zionsville Animal Hospital as a vet assistant since October ‘24. Before that I was working in the doggy daycare industry. I have always had love and experience with animals, my own and clients animals. I have pet sat for clients of the hospital and am able to medicate and give injections (insulin, B12, etc.) and whatever else you may need! I currently work full time at ZAH. I can provide drop in visits before and after work. Boarding is situational, shoot me a message! I am able to do more on my days off :) I take my own dog on a walk before and after work every day no matter the weather. If your pet is staying in my home they will also be provided the same! I am flexible when it comes to your pets schedule as long as it doesn’t interfere with my work schedule.
“Rajesh was an incredible dog sitter! From the moment I left my pup, I knew he was in great hands. He treated him like family and went above and beyond by sending daily updates with photos and videos. It meant so much to see how happy and well cared for my dog was. I would 100% book with him again!”
“Emily is a great sitter. She is friendly. She communicates well with pictures. She truly cares as if they are her own. I highly recommend Emily and will use her again.”
“Wow! We can’t say enough good things about Mark and his puppy palace!! This is the first time I’ve left my dogs and didn’t worry about them missing me. I’ve been recommending him to all my neighbors. Between his big shaded fenced in yard, pool/porch, and other friendly dogs for playtime-my dogs were in dog heaven. Mark sent daily pictures, videos, and updates. We have already booked him again. This is a five star dog resort!! We are driving 25 minutes from Zionsville and its completely worth it to have such peace of mind.”
“First time using Rover and had a fantastic experience! Our pet sitter, Gabbi, maintained great communication throughout the entire process. She was easy to coordinate with, which gave us real peace of mind. Her space is well-kept, with plenty of area for our dog to relax, go on walks, and stay active. We especially appreciated the regular picture updates-it was reassuring to see our dog happy and well cared for. We will definitely be having her watch our dog again.”
“Easy to work with, communicative and flexible drop off/pick up times made it super easy/convenient. Rory was in great hands with Emily, she definitely had an enjoyable stay because she was tuckered out for the next 2 days!”

“Audrey was so helpful with our fur babies!! Very thorough, kind and communicative. We’ve got elderly pets, so there’s feeding and medication specifications and she handled them so well and gave us wonderful updates. Highly recommend!!”
“Zachary has been absolutely AWESOME looking after my cats. Took great care of them, brushed them. Spent time with them. Set up a fence that blew over. 11/10 - will def book him again.”
About: I’ve worked with cats for 2 years, and they’re one of my favorite animals. I love spending time with cats of all personalities and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m dependable, patient, and always happy to play, feed, and give them attention.
About: I’ve grown up with cats all my life and currently take care of two cats and two kittens. My care provides meals, training, play time, and cuddles! I have experience with both outgoing cats that need lots of attention and introverted cats that tend to like their alone time. Since my female cat had kittens, I also have experience of caring for small kittens as well!
“Logan was great to work with, flexible and patient while listening to my complicated instructions! She was very responsive every time I sent a message. She walked, played with, and cuddled my cat, and kept all 31 houseplants looking great over my extended vacation. Will definitely call her again. Thanks, Logan!”
“We highly recommend Zachary! He took great care of our kitties for 2 weeks. we could not have been more pleased. We loved getting pictures of our boys while on vacation. We will definitely use him again.”
About: I have my own dog. I've grown up with dogs. I worked at a pet store when I was a teenager, and have house/pet sat before. Although, I'm not a vet, I'm observant and will keep an eye out for issues that concern you. Pet health is important. That includes nutrition and grooming. I know some think there is such a thing as over involved pet parents, I think they're family and should be treated as such. I volunteer at my church every Thursday, Backpack Program fifth Wednesdays (when they occur) and Orphan Grain Train every other month on the third Thursday. Otherwise, I take care of my dad who has COPD. I have to be home to cook for him. And take care of my own dog. Eventually, I will allow dogs to stay with me overnight, but I want to make sure my dog and said dogs get along. So that is my availability. I have a pitbull mix. She is very good around other dogs. Especially after she gets to know them. She's not aggressive, just tends to hump when excited. All dogs will need a leash if they are coming with me. I have walking trails in my community. I have no problem walking your dogs in them. Please make sure they have up to date tick meds. Also I live with my dad he will be petting and loving any pet that spends the night. My house is two story, so if you have a senior dog that needs help just let me know.
About: I’m a pet sitter with lots of shelter and veterinary clinic experience. I worked for two years at an animal shelter and over a year with a high-volume mobile spay/neuter and wellness clinic, where we handled and cared for 100+ cats per day, including shy, undersocialized, and high-stress cats. I’m comfortable caring for cats of all ages and needs, from playful kittens to senior and special-needs cats. I also have experience with cats who are anxious, sensitive, or need a slower, more patient approach. I understand that every cat has their own comfort level and personality. I take a calm, gentle approach and pay close attention to what each cat needs to feel comfortable. I also keep an eye on important signs of how they’re doing, like appetite, litter box routine, energy level, and overall behavior. I’m very safety-focused and have done a lot of learning about feline body language, carrier and transport safety, straightforward medication routines, and common household hazards (including toxic plants, foods, and cleaning products). I truly treat every cat I care for the way I treat my own, with patience, respect, and close attention to their routine and comfort. Every visit includes thorough photo updates and notes, and my priority is always safe, reliable care so your cat feels secure and you feel completely at ease while you’re away.
“Always great with our animals, no matter what animal it is!! Saved us on a last second booking due to our original arrangements falling through last second. Thank you so much!!”
“Cali is the best! She is my go to when we are planning a trip. She keeps us informed and send us multiple daily pictures of our kitties. I would definitely recommend her services.”
About: I’ve been watching dogs since I was about 8, I’ve been responsible for bathing, giving medicine and making sure they are well loved while owners are away. I specifically love the ability to care for the furry ones you love when you cannot devote the time needed or wanted for them! I am currently in nursing school so my schedule can be wonky some weeks, but my usual availability is 1-6 most weekdays and usually between 8AM and 9:00 PM on weekends! I have a Malshi (Maltese shihtzu mix) he plays mostly In our backyard as well as with my neighbors German Shepard, we live on a 1 acre plot.
“Beth went above and beyond with my cat Charli, giving her sweet gifts on Christmas Day and making her feel extra loved. Charli is already excited for my next trip away!”

“Alyssa is absolutely wonderful. This was our second time leaving our little fur-baby with her and he seems to really enjoy her and is opening up (He has a bit of separation anxiety)...I cannot recommend her enough!”
About: Hey there! My name is Audrey and I've been an animal lover since very a young age. Grew up on a farm and started watching for family and friends about 10 years old. From chickens, cows, horses, you name it I've cared for it! I take care of my parents Shih Tzu Dollie (named after Mrs Dolly Parton, because of her big attitude and sass!). *****My husband Joey occasionally assists me with pet sitting and care. We have many people that we have watched pets for together. We just love giving all animals love and affection they deserve. I'm currently a full time worker, but only working Wednesday to Saturday 7:30a to 6p. So I am available to cuddle and play with your furry family member on my days off and if your comfortable with care morning before and after my work schedule. My husband currently works 8a-4p in Plainfield as well, but he’s able to assist with midday potty breaks and care if you so desire! My husband and I take the atmost care of your furry family member making sure their bellies are full and they have plenty of cuddles and play time in the comfort of your own home!
About: ABOUT ME: Completely insured WITH Animal Bailee Insurance and Vet Protection Coverage through PCI. I have been on and off Rover since I was in college and own my small business. I am a previous dog owner. My animals were not only my pets, but they were my family. I had my Labrador for 13 years and my Boxer mix for 15 years. 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 highly experienced in administering topical, oral and injectable medications, as well as eye and ear medications. My senior pets care needs helped build my knowledge in senior dogs. 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. I am completely insured with $1M general liability, Animal Bailee Insurance, and Vet Protection Coverage. I care for pets in the same way I would care for my own pets, like family. Play time, walks, relaxing on the couch, eating treats, you know... just hanging out.
“Brianna was amazing with my sweet little Bentley! She communicated with me throughout both days, and sent me pictures as well. Bentley was well taken care of, and excited to go both days. I will definitely book more appointments with Brianna in the future. Thanks again, Brianna!!”
“Dustin did a great job taking care of Patty with short notice. He was flexible and quick to respond to set up a meet and greet at the last minute when we had a death in the family. Patty enjoyed her day with Dustin and the rest of the pups. She loves meeting new people and pups but can be a bit shy and clinging at first but it was clear from the photos that Dustin provided that she was happy and content while we were away. She isn't used to being around several dogs and Dustin did a great job getting her settled in. She loves laying in the sun and roaming around grassy areas and Dustin's yard was like a big wonderful park for her where she could be off leash and enjoy the outdoors and running. We will absolutely be taking Patty back for just play time with other pups to make sure she stays socialized. She came home tired and happy and it was clear she was very well cared for. Thank you Dustin!”
About: Hi, I’m Kendall! As a lifelong animal lover, I believe pets thrive when they’re given the right balance of love, exercise, mental stimulation, and consistency. I’m 31 years old and the proud cat parent of Topaz and Turbo. I’ve had Topaz for seven years and Turbo for two, and caring for them has strengthened my understanding of each pet’s unique personality, needs, and routines. I offer doggy daycare (one dog at a time for individualized attention), house sitting (for mainly dogs and cats, but let me know what animal you have and I can learn to take care of it) , drop-in visits, and dog walking. Whether your pet enjoys neighborhood walks, outdoor adventures on local trails, playtime, training exercises, or simply relaxing with companionship, I’ll tailor their care to fit their personality and energy level. One thing that sets me apart is my commitment to learning about animal behavior and training. I enjoy helping pets build confidence, practice good habits, stay mentally engaged, and have fun while doing it. I believe a happy pet is one that receives both physical exercise and mental enrichment. I also have experience caring for very young animals, including bottle-feeding newborn kittens, which has taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of closely monitoring an animal’s well-being. When caring for your pet, I focus on: * Personalized, one-on-one attention * Safe and engaging exercise * Mental enrichment and positive reinforcement * Consistent routines and care * Plenty of affection, play, and companionship * Regular updates and photos for peace of mind I understand that every pet is family, and I treat them with the same care, respect, and attention I would want for my own cats. My goal is to make sure your furry family member feels comfortable, happy, active, and loved while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I have plenty of time to give your all of your furry pets all the love and attention they will need while you are away. My schedule is updated regularly and I will be sure to fit my schedule around your needs once booked. One question I always ask my clients is “how long can your pet be alone?”. I adhere to those guidelines. I have plenty of experience with dogs & cats. I have dog/cat and house sit for the last several years for clients when they were out of town on vacation. I promise to provide your pups or kitties with safe, loving care.
About: My husband and I are lifelong dog lovers with over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for our own beloved Labs. We had the joy of raising a chocolate Lab for 16 years and a silver Lab for 12 years — they were family in every sense of the word. After saying goodbye to both of them in 2024 and 2025, our home felt a little too quiet. We’re not quite ready to adopt again, but our hearts and home are wide open. That’s what brought us to Rover. We know firsthand what it means to trust someone with your dog, and we take that responsibility seriously. Your pup will be welcomed into our home the same way we cared for ours — with patience, love, and the kind of attention only dog people can give. We have a fully fenced in yard for safe outdoor play, plus plenty of walking paths right in our neighborhood to keep your dog active and happy. Both my husband and I work from home full time, which means your pup is never left alone. We’re here throughout the day to provide attention, playtime, and routine walks — keeping their schedule as normal and stress-free as possible. Your dog will be in a safe, loving environment from the moment they arrive. Our home features a fully fenced yard for worry-free outdoor play and neighborhood walking paths for daily exercise. We also have a cozy dog bed ready for naps and downtime, but couch cuddles and sleeping in bed are more than welcome too — whatever makes your pup feel most at home.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and trained them since I was very young. In fact, I helped deliver my dogs puppies when I was 12. I’m a stay at home mom who has a clear day while the kids are at school so your pet will have plenty of attention I have a dog park in my neighborhood and no pets. Your pet would be able to stroll around the house freely. No need for a crate here
“Kristen and Kenneth were phenomenal! We could not have asked for a better sitter for our dog Ace. They were so welcoming, made sure everyone was a good fit, let us see where the dogs would be and helped us and our boy get acclimated to the environment! They sent updates throughout his stay and sent lots of pictures! I never once worried about Ace (and we often do as he is a very anxious dog)! Not only this, but they helped us pull off an engagement and made accommodations so that the proposal could go perfectly without us having to worry about Ace (: we will 10000% be using them again!”
About: Most of my life has been caring for pets and having multiple pets in my home. It's my passion to be a loving safe space for any animal that's in need of one. I'm currently working a part time job so I will have plenty of time to care and love on your pet/pets and their daily needs. I live in a private neighborhood with no traffic. I have a fenced in back yard for your pet to safely explore. You can feel confident your pet will be safe and happy at my house.
“Lori was warm and welcoming to my dogs and me. She was flexible with my chaotic day and super easy to work with. I really appreciated her help! Great yard space and secure fence, too!”
“I was so pleased with Mark's care of my dog! I needed a sitter for my dog on very short notice and Mark responded within a few minutes. My dog is also a senior with a few special needs, and Mark was able to care for her with ease, giving me peace of mind. Throughout her time with Mark, I received periodic photos & videos, so I knew my pet was in great hands!”
About: I grew up with a dog in my home, so caring for pets has always felt natural to me. Today, my wife and I have two boys and a two-year-old mini Australian Labradoodle, so dogs are already a regular part of our family life. As a family, we’ve also helped care for dogs through the Humane Society, which has given us experience with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. We understand that every dog is unique, and we’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, preferences, and comfort level so they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. Our goal is to provide reliable, loving, family-style care with plenty of attention, fun, and updates for you along the way Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because I work from home and am home most evenings. That gives me flexibility throughout the day for potty breaks, feeding, playtime, walks, and check-ins. My wife and I also have a dog of our own, so caring for pets is already part of our normal family rhythm. We’re used to building our day around walks, meals, attention, and making sure dogs feel comfortable and cared for. In our home, we focus on providing a safe, comfortable, family-style environment where pets can feel cared for and relaxed. We’ll follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, crate or sleep preferences, and any special instructions from the owner. Since I work from home, I’m available throughout the day for attention, supervision, potty breaks, and check-ins. We also have a two-year-old mini Australian Labradoodle, so we understand the importance of routine, patience, exercise, and helping dogs feel secure in a home setting. For drop-ins or care in a client’s home, we’ll be respectful of the home and make sure pets have food, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, affection, and any needed care based on the owner’s instructions. We’ll also send updates and photos so owners know how their pet is doing while they’re away. Before accepting a booking, we like to learn about each pet’s personality, schedule, comfort level, and any important safety details so we can make sure it’s a good fit for everyone.
“Amelia was excellent. Easy to communicate with and schedule first visit. Great to have a backyard for our pup to play. Our pup enjoyed playing with all the kiddos. It wore our pup out which is great. Going back next week!”

I also worked for a woman who owned her own Yorkie breeding business for a year, where I helped care for puppies and adult dogs daily. Along with that experience, I’ve helped neighbors, friends, and family with feeding, walking, playtime, overnight care, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection.

About: Reliable and caring dog sitting you can trust. I provide a safe, comfortable environment where your dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while you’re away. Whether it’s daily visits or overnight care, I treat every dog like my own—keeping their routine consistent and giving you peace of mind with regular updates. I am currently taking some time off work due to a family situation, I love animals better than people most of the time and what better way to spend some of my down time - 😊 Caring for pets in your home first and foremost is respect for your setup and keep everything as I found it while ensuring the pet feels secure. I feel it's important to supervise interactions, especially with new animals, and watch for signs of stress, illness, or discomfort such as changes in appetite, behavior, or energy. Regular walks, playtime, and affection help pets feel comfortable, while clear communication with you the owner—updates, photos, and quick reporting of any concerns—builds trust and ensures the pet gets the best possible care.
“Lucky loved meeting Zachary. Zachary took excellent care of Lucky. The pictures provided were great and captured Lucky perfectly. The follow up report was thorough and informative. I am sure Lucky will be happy to hang out with Zachary again.”
About: Hello! My name is Logan. I have been on Rover for a while now, and have many repeat clients. I feel I have a special way with animals and love to care for them. I have my own two mixed babies at home. I have experience managing multiple pets and administering basic medication. I have worked at a doggy daycare, and volunteered with dogs. This is my full time job right now, so your pets will get plenty of time with me. I know how important it is to have reliable pet care while you are away, so let me be that person for you! Caring for pets is my full time job and my absolute passion. I go above and beyond for all of my furry friends. I have been on Rover for more than a year now. I love caring for my regular families, and building relationships with new ones as well. Your pets will be in great hands with me! I pay close attention to detail. I am patient, kind, and a great communicator. I will leave your home better than when I arrived. I know how nice it is to come home to a clean and happy house!
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 make sure to give them what they need, and pay attention to their temperament and the small details that others might not notice. I love seeing animals well cared for, and do my best to mine happy.

I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I am currently working in a school, which gives me much more time to be fully attentive for pet care especially on days when I am on school breaks!

Eager & hard working college student with a flexible summer schedule, will accommodate with any needs for your family! I’m currently on summer break for college, so I’m extremely flexible. I can be with your pet at anytime, and I will always send updates on your furry friend! I have a fenced in yard in my own home with my own pets.

About: My Fiancé and I have had big dogs and small dogs throughout both our lives! With that, I have 2+years of experience as a kennel technician where I had worked with a variety of different dog sizes and breeds. My background includes working with dogs that require specialized care, such as those with mobility challenges, sensory impairments, or chronic health conditions. I am adept at adapting environments and routines to ensure their comfort and safety. I currently have a very flexible schedule where I am available to work anytime you are needing, all week long and I am also able to travel a considerable distance as well! I have a small dog that is young and playful and loves to play on our backyard. And I also have an older medium sized dog who is kind of moody but usually keeps to herself! We have a house full of dog toys and treats because both of my dogs are very spoiled.
“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!”

I also live in a residential area that is great for walking. My personal pets are crate trained so that is available as well as the pets are allowed on furniture.
“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! ❤️”
“I reviewed a few months ago and wanted to follow up. At this point Zach has watched all my pups and I can’t stress enough how great he is. He takes the time to build with each dog, he asks a lot of questions, and genuinely cares about making sure they feel as comfortable as possible when we are gone. He is such a good dog sitter, and a really great guy in general. The only down side is now we don’t want to share him! Haha. Honestly though, your dog would be in very capable hands. Thanks Zach!”
About: I am currently a proud parent to two cat, so I’m very well versed in their play styles and respecting their boundaries. However I spent my childhood with a loving dog who recently passed away. Navigating his senior years taught me that care isn’t just about walks or treats but about patience, sometimes administering medication, and recognizing subtle cues of a senior pet that may need a little extra comfort. Whether your pet is a high energy pet or senior pet who needs a gentle hand, I provide intuitive, dedicated, and delicate care that I’d want for my own. I’m currently a college student, but have lots of time to care for your pets! I’m available on Mondays and Wednesdays from 12:30 PM-4:00 PM or 5:30 PM-10:00 PM. Thursday- Sunday I’m available anytime after 7:00 PM. Whatever your pets need, I have it covered and their safety is always my number one priority. From double checking that every gate is latched and every lease is secured/correctly on to closely monitoring your pets for any sign of discomfort, ill treat your home and your pets with the highest level of care. Whether it’s following a strict medication schedule or navigating a high energy walk, I’m prepared for any situation!

I can accommodate pets of all ages, temperaments, and health conditions. I have experience working with shelter animals, and have also worked for three years training, caring for, and socializing puppies. This has provided me with the experience and knowledge to care for a variety of animals, including pets with special needs and those with reactivity and/or anxiety. Their comfort is my biggest priority, so I’m more than happy to accommodate any special requests! I am an experienced incoming veterinary student and devote my summers to pet sitting and care, so I am very flexible in terms of scheduling and accommodating your pet! I grew up with a pup who required special attention for his anxiety, so I have endless patience and experience with dogs who need a more quiet, patient approach! I also have experience walking very large, reactive, and/or high energy type dogs through my volunteering at the humane society.

“First time using Rover and had a fantastic experience! Our pet sitter, Gabbi, maintained great communication throughout the entire process. She was easy to coordinate with, which gave us real peace of mind. Her space is well-kept, with plenty of area for our dog to relax, go on walks, and stay active. We especially appreciated the regular picture updates-it was reassuring to see our dog happy and well cared for. We will definitely be having her watch our dog 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!”
“Amy and Caleb T. are a couple of rock stars in the pet care industry. I truly appreciate the clear communication they provided from the beginning. They were able to accommodate my dog and me on short notice. Even on a few days’ notice, we were able to have a quick meet-and-greet, and I felt comfortable leaving my dog with them. I also appreciate the pictures they sent me during my trip, which made me feel at ease knowing that my dog was having a great time with them. I definitely plan to book with them in the future because of their exceptional service. From any concerns they may have had to the fun-loving pictures they sent me, everything was great. Thank you all so much for taking care of my boy.”
“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.”
“Dayna was great with Panny and although it was not a great fit for our dog in particular ( she can be a little old and grumpy) I would highly recommend her skills and sweet personality!”
