“My two dogs had such a great time with Nichole! She provided updates and pictures. I knew they were in good hands and put my mind at ease! We will definitely be using Nichole again!”

“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!!”

“Our dog loves coming over! She gets so excited in the car when she sees Joy. I also love getting photo updates from them, she’s always playing and well taken care of! 10/10 don’t even think twice, book now!”


“Nancy and Mark responded to my short notice request for booking very promptly. Nancy was also very good about sending photos daily and letting us know how our Finnick was doing. The pictures she provided showed him being snuggled in warm blankets and having fun with other dogs inside and outside. Finnick did not hesitate to go inside with her when we first arrived and he seemed to be relaxed and enjoyed his visit with them. Thanks for your care. We will be repeat customers! The Sanchez Family”

“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.”

“Absolutely exceptional dog sitting experience! From the moment we reached out to inquire about Barbara's services, to the very end of my dog's stay, everything was seamless and stress-free. Barbara not only provided top-notch care for dog, Gracie, but she also went above and beyond to ensure her comfort and happiness. Communication was fantastic throughout the entire process, with regular updates and photos that reassured me Gracie was in great hands. It was evident that she and her husband genuinely loves animals and know how to cater to their individual needs. The environment provided for my dog was clean and safe. I appreciated the personalized attention given to my dog, including her dietary preferences and exercise routine being carefully followed. Returning home, Gracie was happy, healthy, and clearly had a wonderful time during her stay. I cannot recommend Barbara highly enough! If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and passionate about animals, look no further. I will definitely be booking her services again in the future.”

“I received several pictures of Moppet from Bernice. He seemed to really enjoy her big fenced-in backyard and having similarly sized canine playmates. Bernice was a gentle, welcoming dogsitter.”

“It’s so cute to see my Chaseypoo interact with Amia and Joshua, the kids and their pups. They adore her and she comes home happy and tired and ready for a nap.”

“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.”
“I had to go out of state for work last minute and couldn’t take my fur baby with me. I couldn’t be happier that I found Holly. She was so good to my dog. She made me so at ease. She sent lots of pics and videos his whole stay. I know she truly loved my dog. I didn’t have to worry at all and I can’t give her 10 stars so she gets 5.”

“My pup enjoyed his stay, I was updated and notified of his well being, I highly recommend booking with her, and will be trusting her with my pup anytime I leave town. Did amazing with him all around”

“Jordan took amazing care of my dog Stella while I was away. She sent thoughtful updates and photos that gave me total peace of mind, and it was clear Stella was getting lots of attention and love. I really appreciated the extra care she gave my baby, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her again!”

“April is the best! I bring my dog to her instead of leaving him with family because he loves her house and dogs so much. Great communication and clearly a massive dog lover.”

“Meredith did a great job with my two girls! I was a little concerned at first, not sure if she could handle my 10 month old German Shepherd, Jream, but overall, she did very well even without having a fenced yard. My girls still got a full hour of playtime in a nearby fenced area where they were able to run and play ball freely. Meredith followed all my instructions, and I would definitely use her again.”

“Alex was wonderful. I was very comfortable leaving her in charge of our cats. She was very reliable and took care of our cats like her own. Would definitely book her again.”


About: I’ve owned pets my entire life, chose it as a career, and started working as a veterinary assistant. Now I work as a dog trainer! I’m excited to meet you and your pets! Right now I work part time, so I’m available most days in the afternoon/ evenings! I will have plenty of time to hangout with your fur babies! Let’s talk about the best day and time for you! The goal is to make sure your pups are happy and cared for as if you were home with them! I will always be prepared, always have treats, and always communicate with you!
“Heather does a fantastic job caring for my pets !!! Everything is perfect when we return home and the pets are happy !!! I highly recommend Heather as a trusted pet 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!!”

“Eli cared for my boys Symba and Eli for 12 days. I was so blessed to have been able to choose him for this visit. The notes he sent daily told a beautiful little story. I found myself waiting to read the next one🥰🥰🥰. His caring spirit shows through his work. One of my boy's is named Eil!!! 🥰🐈And on that alone , I knew this was perfect. Blessings to you Eli, until next time...Carolyn”


“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!”


“Hannah was amazing! This was my first time hiring a sitter off Rover and naturally I was a bit nervous to do so but when I came across her profile and saw how much experience she has with all kinds of animals, I knew my kitties would be taken great care of! She was always available and dropped in every day to give me updates and pictures. I would 1000% hire her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a 5 star sitter! Your babies will get the best care in Hannah's hands! :)”


About: I used to be a kennel assistant at an animal clinic, there I fed, walked, and looked after the dogs/cats that were boarding there. I am accustomed to specific feeding instructions that the owners gave. I am fine with sitting any breed of dog or any animal for that matter! I am going into animal care after high school and hope to have an animal oriented career in the future. I have a golden retriever, a shih-zhu pomeranian mix, two guinea pigs, and a Syrian hamster! I am currently completely free anytime besides Sundays! If something comes up or changes I will change this info or let anyone know as soon as I can. I take my dogs outside everyday so they can go to the bathroom. I replenish their water and give them dinner later if no one else has been home yet. I give my guinea pigs their veggies, hay, and pellets everyday and replace the dirty mats and spot clean their cage. My hamsters daily care consists of spot cleaning, cleaning her wheel, replenishing food, and replenishing water!
About: Hi! I have cared for dogs technically my whole life since I grew up with them. When I went to college I got a dog of my own and have had another since then. I love going on walks and playing with dogs. I am a part time nanny, but go on a walk every morning, afternoon, and evening. On top of that I do potty breaks first thing in the morning and before bed. I have a puppy proofed home since I have a pup of my own. I don’t have a fence but know how to get a dog’s energy out by playing however their style is and am good assessing what a dog needs.

Any animals of mine can be caged if needed

“We are very dedicated to ensuring our cats are well cared for, and Jasmine did a great job with drop-in visits! Frequent communication, great pictures, and open to asking for clarification when needed. Even our cat who's anxious with strangers seemed to settle into a comfortable routine. +++”

“Mackenzie was amazing!!! She took the time to play with my 4 kitties during her drop in visits, sent me lots of pictures, gave them their meds, etc. I felt 100% secure with having her care for my furbabies. Would absolutely recommend her and book again in the future if needed.”

I prefer to meet in advance just to go over your pet(s) needs and see where food, treats, and toys are located before you are away.

About: My family picked up two stray kittens from the side of the road when I was 9! My family had those cats until I was just fresh out of graduate school and they passed on after a very long life!

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Currently, I care for two of my own—Sparky, my sweet 13-year-old Bichon Frise, and Shelby, my playful 1-year-old Miniature Goldendoodle. Having both a senior dog and a young, energetic pup has given me a wide range of hands-on experience, from managing health needs and gentle senior care to keeping up with puppy energy, training, and teething phases. In the past, I also cared for an American Pitbull Terrier for 5 years, and over the years I’ve looked after many dogs for friends, neighbors, and family members. Some of the breeds I’ve worked with include Chihuahuas, Beagles, Golden Retrievers, Pomeranians, and a variety of lovable mixes. Every dog is unique, and I truly enjoy getting to know each one’s personality and quirks. Whether they’re shy or outgoing, young or elderly, I’m patient, gentle, and always happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. I’m usually available Monday through Friday, which means I have plenty of time throughout the day to walk, play with, and care for your pup. Whether they need a midday stroll, some company while you’re away, or just a little extra love and attention, I’m happy to be there for them. I’m home often, so I’m able to keep a close eye on the dogs and make sure they’re always safe and cared for. While my yard is open and unfenced, I never leave dogs outside unattended—they’re always on a leash and supervised, with access to a sunny, enclosed sunroom for extra comfort. For smaller dogs, I have a crate available if preferred by the owner, and I’m also able to provide transport in case of a vet emergency. My home is stocked with cozy blankets and toys that are always available for dogs to borrow and enjoy. Located in a quiet, beautiful area, the home offers plenty of space to explore, bird- and squirrel-watching opportunities, and nearby parks for peaceful outings. The spacious living room and multiple rooms allow for safe separation if needed, ensuring every dog feels comfortable. Most of all, your pup will enjoy peace, safety, and lots of love while in my care.
“Very accommodating on such short notice! Sent plenty of pictures of our precious Charlie boy during his daycare stay to let us know he was doing ok! Our dog seemed really comfortable and calm in her care! We will use her again in the future!”

“Noel was amazing! It was our first time leaving our puppy with someone during the day. He was so excited to see her every morning. We cannot recommend Noel enough. Will be using her in the future!!!!”

“My puppy was well cared for, and was definitely very active during her visit. When she came home, she was immediately ready to lay down and relax after her eventful day. Definitely worth coming scheduling more days.”

I hope we can raise our 3 kids to love animals as much as we do. I have been a pet sitter for about 15 years, but grew up in a house of animals. My family's huge animal lovers. I have stayed for weeks at a time with families, dog walked, issued medicine to pets, and just simply stopped in to let them out and hang for a bit.

I am just excited to make your fur baby feel safe and loved while you're away. *Update: We just added bathing and nail clipping as an add on option!

My 5 year old is in school all day, my 3 year old has preschool twice a week for 2 hrs, and my newborn just goes for the ride. I'm always home on the weekends, and during the week I'm always looking to do something-which I would love to show my kids how to treat animals.

Our dogs have dog beds all around, even though they sleep on couches and beds w us. The cats have cat towers and toys and get the free range of the house.

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.
“Jess watched my little Luna for a few days and she was great. So accommodating and sweet. Her husky Benny got along with Luna so well. I would definitely recommend her to sit for any fur baby!”

About: I enjoy having dogs, and started using this website when I went out of town. Because of this, I know the high standard of care I expect from my sitter, and what you should expect too. I will take the time and care you would for your own dog. I'll give them snuggles, playtime, and lots of outside time depending on the crazy weather we have here of course. Myself and my doggy friends love to take walks, play tug-of-war, fetch and other games your dog enjoys or might enjoy. If your dog comes to our house we have a fully enclosed backyard. It is a great big yard enough to play fetch with a few dogs at the same time. Some just like to sun bathe and watch everyone else run around. Your dogs will have so much fun, and will be well loved while they are here. When my doggie friends come back for a visit the owners tell me the dogs are excited when they turn down my street. I have a Yorkie named Jack, and 3 mini Bernedoodles named Elenor, Dahlia, and Franklin. I am not taking unneutered or unspayed dogs at this time. I have lots of available hours to spend with your pets. My schedule is consistent usually, but fairly open. In the past, I was walking dogs. Not sure if I am going to start doing that or not. I have a fenced in yard and 4 dogs to keep your dog company. We can play in the yard or hang out in the house. I have lots of toys and balls.
“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! 🐾”

“Tracy did an amazing job with my dogs! They can be pretty rowdy, but she handled them with patience and care and even helped improve their leash behavior. I’ve noticed a big difference in how well they walk now. She’s reliable, professional, and clearly loves what she does. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog walker!”

About: I’ve a had and loved pets my whole life, and have cared for dogs ranging from a docile miniature schnauzer to the most rambunctious, sweet and loving Weimaraner. I’d love to make your dog feel right at home in my home while you’re away, or check in on them in yours! I currently work from home running a small business and have a flexible schedule. The Weimaraner, Maci, in my profile is with me part time, typically more in the summer months. I have a large back yard for pups to run in, basic puppy training skills, and lots of experience taking walks with easily distracted pups. For drop in visits, I am a calm presence so your pet doesn’t feel overwhelmed or uneasy. I’m happy to follow all instructions for feeding and outside time, and also love to take my drop in pups on walks if you’d like me to. 🐾 Since I’m home a majority of the time, I’m able to provide very regular potty breaks and lots of time outside to roam in the backyard. We play plenty of fetch, tug of war, etc. 🦮 I love to walk the pups in my care if that’s something they enjoy, so just let me know. 🐕 My son absolutely loves helping take care of all of the dogs we board when he is here in the evenings. We would love to welcome your dog to our home and treat him or her like family! I have a fully fenced in yard and plenty of toys for your pup to pick from if they’d like. I love a good game of fetch or tug of war and can keep your pet well entertained. I regularly take 1-3 mile walks and feel comfortable walking even if it’s chilly outside. In our down time, your pet can expect snuggles, pets, and to rest comfortably on the couch or dog bed.
“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!!”

About: I have been around dogs since I was born! I have two of my own fur children, whom both required a lot of attention and are very spoiled! They are also extremely well mannered and I have only self-trained them with patience and proper motivation. I have pet sat for friends and family several times informally, and found it to be so fun! I myself am a very detail oriented person, loves loving on animals, and understands how comforting it is to have the right person looking after your baby! I own my own business so my hours are flexible and can be arranged as needed! I already am caring for my own pets throughout each day! My dogs are both leashed when going out to potty in our yard. I also work on patience, obedience commands, and recall with them so that they have little daily disciplines. Both of my dogs are very treat oriented so it makes keeping them up to snuff with their manners easy! They also get regularly walked through our neighborhood, have an abundance of toys, and a very consistent meal time for breakfast and dinner!

My days naturally revolve around walks, playtime, feeding schedules, outdoor time, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, relaxing together, or giving extra attention when they need comfort and patience. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medication instructions if needed, and make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and comfort. I also respect my clients’ homes by keeping things clean, secure, and providing updates so they can feel at ease while they’re away.

About: I'm an experienced dog sitter and work at a veterinary clinic as a kennel attendant, where I care for dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies, seniors, and pets with special needs. I provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care, and I'll treat your pet like they're my own. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I work as a kennel attendant at a veterinary clinic and plan my schedule to provide reliable walks, drop-in visits, and attentive care before and after work, as well as on my days off. I follow each pet's normal routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. I provide fresh food and water, walks or playtime, potty breaks, lots of attention, and any requested medications or special care. I always keep owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pet is happy and well cared for.
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.
About: My name is Hannah, and I've been taking care of pets since a very young age. I love going on walks, no matter what the weather is, I will walk in any kind of weather just as long as the dog will walk. I like to take my time and build the pet's trust, even when they are shy at first. I always make sure I understand the information that is given to me. I love it when a pup gets used to seeing me, remembers my car, and gets so excited to see me. I did move from IL to Indiana, and i do have about 4 acres to run around to get some energy out. I use to work at a doggy day care. I stay at home taking care of any animal that i have for a petting sitting when i do not have a pet sitting I try to look for walks to meet new pets I have a fenced-in yard and also have about 4 acres of land. I take the pups out to use the bathroom and run them around to tire them out

“My two dogs had such a great time with Nichole! She provided updates and pictures. I knew they were in good hands and put my mind at ease! We will definitely be using Nichole again!”

“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!!”

“Our dog loves coming over! She gets so excited in the car when she sees Joy. I also love getting photo updates from them, she’s always playing and well taken care of! 10/10 don’t even think twice, book now!”

“It’s so cute to see my Chaseypoo interact with Amia and Joshua, the kids and their pups. They adore her and she comes home happy and tired and ready for a nap.”

“Jordan took amazing care of my dog Stella while I was away. She sent thoughtful updates and photos that gave me total peace of mind, and it was clear Stella was getting lots of attention and love. I really appreciated the extra care she gave my baby, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her again!”

“April is the best! I bring my dog to her instead of leaving him with family because he loves her house and dogs so much. Great communication and clearly a massive dog lover.”

“Meredith did a great job with my two girls! I was a little concerned at first, not sure if she could handle my 10 month old German Shepherd, Jream, but overall, she did very well even without having a fenced yard. My girls still got a full hour of playtime in a nearby fenced area where they were able to run and play ball freely. Meredith followed all my instructions, and I would definitely use her again.”

“Noel and his family were wonderful. Everyone gave Tom love and affection. I have no doubt that he felt very well looked after. Every day she didn't hesitate to respond to my messages and send photos. It reassures us a lot when we know that our pet friends are in good hands.”


“I was in from out of town and Eleanor took wonderful care of my two dogs. They had a big, secure, fenced outdoor space. It was clear that Eleanor and her husband had a passion for pups and were very knowledgeable. I would trust them with my dogs anytime!”


“Cathy is so lovely and caring. She has watched our pups in last minute situations and has been wonderfully accommodating. I think one of the dogs might break his tail from wagging it so hard with excitement when we pull into her driveway. Thank you Cathy!”

“Lindsey was incredible with our 7-month-old German Shepherd, Luna! Luna is usually scared of people when she first meets them, but Lindsey quickly made her feel comfortable and at ease. This was Luna’s first time away from us, and Lindsey went above and beyond to ensure she was happy and well cared for. She followed all of our instructions perfectly and even sent us regular photos, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing Luna was in great hands. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and Lindsey will absolutely be our first choice if we need a sitter again. Highly recommend!”

“Thaaaannnkkk you Toya! She was wonderful throughout the whole process. Great communication, was able to accommodate only a few days prior of notification, and flexible with the booking! Dropoff was easy, and my dog didn't even bark when she came out (always a good sign of a dog person!). Of course he would have a small incident in her residence, Toya was informative in what happened and was still patient and kind. We would definitely consider using her again.”

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.
