“As soon as we were going out of town we knew right away we wanted our Honey girl to stay with Aurora and her sweet family! Aurora is quick to send updates with pictures and quick to respond. When we go pick up honey from her stay, she is so well taken care of and tired out from a good time. ☺️”
“I cannot say this from the rooftops loud enough, but Kate was amazing! From the moment she got our dog Abbey, I received photos and updates throughout our trip. She was able to spot check a few things at our house when she picked up our dog and even checked on the cat without us asking. We could tell Kate cared a lot about our dog and was very considerate with the time to pick up our dog. We are grateful that our dog loved her and her pets so much, she slept like a rock after their visit! This makes our next stay out of town a breeze, because we know who we are going back to!”
“Really impressed with Zhou’s care for our Mini Goldendoodle Buck. Lots of communication through pics and if we wanted to know how Buck was doing, Zhou answered quickly! I want to use Zhou in the future as our sitter!!”
“My dog, Honey Blu, had a wonderful experience with Keitel and his family. Keitel always kept me updated with pictures and texts on how well Honey Blu was doing under his care. Not only did he care for Honey Blu like she was his own, he also took the time to train her. Honey Blu came back home to with new skills, and as a happy pup! I feel secure with letting Keitel take care of my pet again, and I highly recommend Keitel to take care of your pet too.”
“This family was so great! They did everything possible to make sure I felt good about leaving my dogs there, and both my dogs absolutely loved staying with them. They somehow managed to keep my escape artist husky in check, a feat which isn’t easy. My dogs looked very comfortable and happy to be there.”
“Samantha was so wonderful! She was able to take my two dogs Remy and Piper on short notice I was in town for my son’s wedding and Samantha came to my hotel to meet us and then was able to care for them during all the festivities. She picked them up and also brought them back. She was so loving and kind to them. I just fell in love with her. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Thank you, Samantha, from the bottom of my heart!”
“As usual, Muggsy had a wonderful time staying with Naomi. She treats him like her own. She's our go-to sitter from here on out. Thank you, Naomi for always taking excellent care of our pup!”
“Kylie is AWESOME!!! She sent great updates and pictures of my dog everyday. Super communication and accommodating for my crazy schedule. It looked like my dog had more fun with Kylie’s pack than she does at home. Definitely will book again.”
“As first‑time Rover users, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Sasha was honest, communicative, and treated our puppy like her own. We loved the photos and videos, and our pup came home even better behaved. We’ll definitely book again.”
“Amy was amazing with my dog, Brownie. He can definitely be a barker, but he’s a sweet, lovable boy, and she was so patient and understanding with him. She really treated him like he was part of her own family. She kept me updated the whole time with messages and photos, which meant so much to me. I never had to worry about how he was doing. She even asked about his preferences and routines to make sure he felt comfortable and at home. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. Brownie looked happy and relaxed, and that says everything. He totally didn’t miss me when I picked him up lol. You won’t find anyone like her. I’d trust her again in a heartbeat.”

“Thank you, Ron. I was more than pleased with how my pups were taken care of and with the frequent communications both prior to and during their stay. I'll definitely do this again when a similar travel need arises.”
“Dennis has done an excellent job caring for our dog and we are so greatful we have found such a kind and dependable sitter. Kuna was immediately at ease when we went for our initial visit. His backyard was clearly made specifically for dogs to enjoy! His own dogs were immediately also at ease with Kuna. Communication was also great with Dennis. He immediately replies to any inquiries and reaches out if he has any questions. Thank you, Dennis!”
“Sam was great with Daisy and super to work with. She puts a great deal of energy and effort in the care of the dogs. I highly recommend Sam and look forward to utilizing her services in the future.”
“Brittney did a great job communicating and had all of our dog’s stuff nicely packed for pickup. She’s got a huge fenced in yard that would be great to run around in. She was really sweet and our dog seemed to really like her. Would definitely book with Brittney again!”
“Lilly was GREAT with my little fur baby while I was gone. She kept me up to date with everything that was going on, and my baby looked like she had a blast! Lilly was also so kind to accommodate last minute.”

“Veronica is amazing. She gives great updates and takes a lot of great photos to show how the little one is doing. She worked with me on short notice, makes sure all questions and concerns are covered and just overall great to work with. Will be using her again in the future.”
About: I am an animal lover in every sense of the word! I have returned 5 lost pets to their homes, including a cat whose family had moved hundreds of miles away. I have a rescue of my own as well, who I have had for 2 years now. All of these strays have stayed in my home while I contacted their owners, so my pups are very accustomed to having new furry friends in the home! I have watched 10lb terriers all the way to an 150lb+ pitbull/mastiff mix - all sizes are welcome! I also love to take pet photos, so with your permission I will take photos (no extra charge)! I have two pups of my own, so pet care is an every day event for me. I work 10 minutes from home, so I can feed/potty pets over my lunch break as well! I have a fenced in yard and two social pups who would love to keep your fur baby company! My pups are not crated when I am gone or sleeping, but I have extra bedrooms for a crate if needed. My second calling in life is pet photography, so expect some cute photos of your pet during my time with them (with your permission of course)!
“Debbie was awesome! All instructions were followed exactly, and she was even able to snap a few pics each day of my skittish little one who was always hiding. The peace of mind that Debbie gave me while I was across the country for the week eased my anxiety of leaving my little girl behind knowing she was in good hands. Totally recommend!”
“Lucille was wonderful as always! She provides lots of details about our cats care and is very communicative. Setting up visits with her is easy and our cats love her!”
About: I’ve taken care of reptiles, rats, dogs and cats for many years. I always spend extra time with all the animals in my care and love them as my own. I know how to groom dogs and train them as I have spent a lot of time raising and training puppies. And I’m excellent in watching after cats and making them feel comfortable. I love playing and providing physical and mental stimulation to all pets. And a low stress environment. I know how to train basic obedience commands and manners for puppies and adult dogs as I have with dogs I have watched as well as my own even advanced commands. I work 12 hour shifts 15 days out of the month so for 15 days I am completely free and I only work 2 days in a row. but on the days I work I am still available for drop-ins, dog walks or boarding and I am able to come home at the 6 hour mark to let the dog out and play for a 20ish minutes. My schedule is a little abnormal. Since I’m free for half of the weekdays of the month I have a lot of time on my hands and am more then happy to drop in,walk or board your pup or cat. During house sitting, I make sure to keep their routine as consistent as possible, offering plenty of love, playtime, and attention so they feel at ease while their owners are away. For drop-in visits, I focus on giving them quality one-on-one time, whether that means feeding, refreshing water, play, or cuddles, whatever they need most in that moment.
“Kylie is incredible to work with. Not only did she put in the time to get to know our nervous cats, but she actively worked with us to find solutions to our unique needs. Highly recommend using her services, you and your pets will not be disappointed.”
“I really want to appreciate you for sticking by my cats side during their after surgery healing. I feel awful for bee biting. But you stuck by her side afterwards. You communicated so well and the pictures helped giving me some relief.”
“Ellen was wonderful with my three kitties! My one kitty is 17.5 years old and has higher needs with meds and getting around. Ellen did great with taking care of my old baby! I’ll for sure be booking her again :)”
“We came home to happy and healthy kitties. Will definitely hire Bri again and I recommend her! There was a small misunderstanding about feeding instructions but we worked it out pretty quickly, and she is very responsive. She gave us lots of photos and videos which was very important to me!”
“Great communication. Very professional and reliable. We’re so glad we found someone we trust and feel comfortable with, especially for our 15-year-old Chihuahua . We’ll definitely be booking with Anna again.”

“Debbie and her husband are amazing with my Gus. He’s a big boy at 93 lbs and they have plenty of space for him. After only two visits he is so comfortable around them. Thank you for being so sweet to him!”
“Zhou is absolutely 💯 wonderful! He watched my Whippet while my mom and I celebrated her birthday in Wichita. The second day I dropped off Woody he was super excited to be there. Woody is picky and gets nervous easily. He basically jumped out of our vehicle so he could enjoy Zhou's care. Thank you!!!! Wish Zhou lived where I live!”

About: Hi, I’m Bri! I’ve loved animals my whole life and caring for them truly comes naturally to me. I’m a bit of a homebody who enjoys reading, traveling, and spending time with family and friends—but most of all, I love being around animals. I have a Siberian Husky named Titus and four cats (Tobias, Thumbelina, Talin, and Tucker), so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and care needs.

About: I’ve worked at a doggy daycare and volunteered at the humane society- I have also had dogs and cats for 17 years of my life! Currently, I have purposely left my schedule completely open for pet care during the week. I am available day or night, 7 days a week. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog in my home. I am very good at reading dog body language and knowing their limits while caring for them.
About: Hi, I'm Renee! I've had dogs for most of my life and love being around them. Big dogs, little dogs, lazy dogs, crazy dogs. They're all fun in their own way. I'm a local mom looking to earn some extra income doing something I actually enjoy. If I'm watching your pet, they're not just getting fed and let outside. I'll spend time with them, play with them, talk to them like they're people, and make sure they're comfortable while you're away. You can also expect lots of photo updates because I know I'd want them too. :) A few things I can help with: - Feeding and fresh water - Walks and exercise - Playtime and companionship - Potty breaks - Basic medication administration when needed - Cleaning up accidents and pet messes - Daily photo and text updates I'm flexible and able to work around your pet's normal routine. Whether your pet needs a morning visit, afternoon walk, evening feeding, or overnight care, I'll do my best to provide consistent care and keep them comfortable while you're away. I understand how important routines can be for pets and will follow your instructions closely. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and home is a big decision. I'll treat both with the same care and respect that I would my own. Before any booking, I'd be happy to schedule a meet-and-greet so we can discuss your pet's routine, personality, medications, and any special needs. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
“Linda took great care in reviewing and understanding the needs of my pup. We did a brief introduction to be sure her pets and mine would get along and I was very comfortable leaving him with her. They took several walks so he would settle and he was relaxed when I picked him up. Will definitely be booking again! Thanks Linda!”
“My family and I are very glad that we found Keitel to care for Goldendoodle (Meelo). As dog lovers, we always wants to ensure that our fur buddy is taken care off in our absence. Keitel check all the blocks and exceed our expectations. Keitel is not only great with dogs but also very knowledgeable with them. Keitel afford my wife and I the opportunity to meet him in advance for us to ensure that the environment was suitable for our Goldendoodle. Throughout the stay, Keitel and his family treated Meelo as if he was his own. We received regular updates and pictures of Meelo and his new favorite family. Meelo was pampered and well taken care of and our mind was at ease. We can’t wait to rebook you again. I highly recommend Keitel to anyone looking for a doggie day care.”

Our 6 foot privacy fence keeps them safe in our large back yard. We can take them on long walks if they like those. Our lab/boxer mix loves 💕 loves new playmates! If your baby is more chill, he will leave them be and nap in another room. Our cat rules the second floor. They have plenty of beds, sunny spots, hiding spots and food to make them happy.

About: I have had pets since I was a young child. I have always been the volunteer to take care of friends and family’s pets whenever they needed care. My family and I do have fur babies of our own and we take training and care seriously. We believe in not only nourishing their bodies, but their minds and spirits as well! Enrichment toys and activities are in abundance. I work from home and have ample time to care for your fur kiddos. We have a large fenced backyard for play, during the summer months we have water activities for the doggos that like to play, if you allow. We play fetch, we have tug toys for the trees, and other outdoor activities with plenty of space for running! While in my care your fur kiddo will be loved and treated like our own. I will be home to tend to their needs, will follow their care plans, and play with them to ensure their time spent in my care is the best! We have a large fenced yard with reinforced bases so they are safe to play to their hearts content!
About: I have been a vet tech for 10 years. It is my passion. I had a disabled boxer so I am familiar with need to help disabled pets. I currently share custody of an energetic border collie.

If the pet is staying at your house, time permitting, I will check on them before work, lunch, and spend time after work with them. I will treat every pet as if they are mine. I normally feed twice a day and go outside as often as possible; weather permitting of course. If anything seems off, I have experience and a clinic I can take them too if needed.

“Dorothy is the best!! We have a 15 year old beagle/dachshund (Tank) and he just loves her! Dorothy is the only person, outside of family, that we trust to take Tank on walks while we’re gone. We’ve been using Dorothy for quite sometime now and are so grateful for her!”
About: Hi! My name is Katie and I have been around animals my entire life. Growing up, we always had cats in the house and when I was 12, I got my first dog. When I was little, I ran a small pet sitting service in my neighborhood and had so much fun taking care of dogs and cats of all sizes. I recently moved to Wichita to attend Wichita State University but I try to visit my furbabies at home as much as possible. My roommate, Jimme, and I love animals and spend as much time with them as we can, whether it's visiting pets we know, spending an afternoon in pet shops, or volunteering for various animal organizations. We are both active people and love going on long walks through our neighborhood. I am a very responsible, attentive sitter and treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. One of my favorite things to do when caring for a pet is to take lots of pictures! You can be sure that I will keep you updated on all the activities we do so you never have to worry about your pet while you are away. You can expect your dog to be spoiled with treats, cuddles, and lots of playtime while visiting! I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I often work remotely here in Wichita, so I am available to care for your pet all day! I am extremely flexible and can usually modify repeat bookings as requested. One of the first things I like to do with the pets in my care is gain their trust by feeding and playing with them. Then, we go on walks around the neighborhood to get some exercise and explore. Dogs are usually ready for a treat and a nap when we get back home so I let them relax before we do it all again!
“Kylie is friendly, punctual, and able to accomodate a three/day visit while my husband and I were out of town. I would definitely use Kylie's services again! Thanks, Kylie!”
About: I grew up on a small town farm and was raised around horses, dogs, cats, chickens, etc. until I graduated high school. I was responsible for caring for the farm animals, so I have lots of experience with different animals and pets, including cats and dogs (of all sizes and ages). I recently graduated with a master degree in biomedical science and am looking for some extra work while I figure out what I’d like to do. I currently have four pets that I absolutely adore— a Labradoodle, German Shepherd, dachshund, and a fat, orange cat! Suffice it to say they are spoiled beyond belief. As a recent graduate, I am taking time off from school and full-time work, so my schedule is very open and flexible (especially afternoons). I am usually available for dog walking duties anytime from 7:30 AM-10 AM or in the evenings, and I can make stops to take care of dogs/cats anytime during the day. If house-sitting is required, details will need to be arranged prior to the stay. While I am newer to Rover, I have tons of pet care experience and believe each pet (even the troublemaker) deserves top-tier care and companionship while their humans aren’t home. Aside from watching others’ animals, I own a few myself. I take the dogs on daily walks, feed them twice daily, and clean the cat litter box daily. Overall, I have experience walking/handling small and large—sometimes rowdy—dogs, administering oral medication, cleaning out litter boxes, playing with pets, and daily feeds. Depending on the job and the dog/cat I am responsible for, I am willing to care for your animal in a way that best fits their needs as you see fit.
“Debbie handles Layla very well. Layla tends to not like anyone outside of the family but Debbie just takes it in stride and is winning Layla over. Plus walking is Layla's favorite thing so that helps! HIghly recommend Debbie, very experienced.”
About: I have 30+years of experience with many kinds of animals. I have personally owned: dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, guineas, horses and a goat, pig and miniature donkey! Love my furry and feathered friends! I am currently very flexible and available throughout the week. I am also available on holidays. I am look forward to meeting your beloved pet! I am presently looking to do drop-in's and walks for now. I hope to include more services at a later date. I have a friendly small older dog that also likes dogs and cats. I have dependable transportation. I will care for your furry friend like they are my very own.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life. I grew up with an orange tabby cat who taught me the basics of daily pet care from a young age. In high school, my family adopted a snorkie, and I’ve helped care for him for the past 12 years—everything from daily walks and playtime to grooming and giving medications. I’ve also had my own cat for the past seven years, and through his renal issues I’ve become very familiar with the early signs of urinary blockages, bladder stones, and the importance of special diet management. Because of this, I’m extremely attentive to subtle behavior changes and comfortable supporting pets with chronic or sensitive medical needs. I treat every pet like family, and I’m committed to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care. I am a medical student who spends several hours a day studying, making my schedule perfect for house sitting and using study breaks to take dogs on walks. I have class every week day from 8-12 so I can do anytime after that. Unfortunately, I am unable to do Thursdays due to long lecture and lab times. When your pet is with me, they’re treated like my own. I’m really big on keeping things safe, calm, and consistent so your pet can settle in and feel comfortable. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and any little changes—especially since I’m used to managing my own cat’s medical needs. I’m super reliable and I always follow instructions exactly how you give them. You’ll get plenty of updates and photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. Whether it’s sticking to a schedule, handling special diets, or just giving them extra love and attention, I make sure your pet is safe, happy, and well-cared for the entire time.
About: I have loved all different types of animals my entire life! Between having multiple family members outing farms, being an assistant for an exotic pet store when I was in high school, and animal sitting and walking over the last 10 years I have created a bond with animals of all types and sizes! I can’t wait to take your furry friend for a walk, give them a bath, or just some fun at the park! I am a stay at home, mom and my child is at school during the day but when she is home, she also loves being around animals and getting to be compassionate and kind towards them! So I have ability to care for any pet in my care at all hours and be able to give them my full focus! I have plenty of space near my home to take your pet for a walk, or we can go to a nearby dog park! I have cats at my home too to give your furry friend a company! I am able to crate your animal if needed, give baths, and other basic animal maintenance like running them to appointments.
About: I’m an experienced pet sitter and dog lover with a calm home environment, perfect for pups who are friendly, well-mannered, and crate-trained. I also have a resident dog and cat, so I prefer guests who are respectful of other dogs’ space and social cues. I enjoy going for walks and providing enrichment, but I’m best suited for dogs who are leash-trained and not overly high energy. Please feel free to message me first so we can see if it’s a good fit! I work full time as a middle school teacher, so I have a very caring heart. I’m available after 3pm most days and anytime on the weekends and during summer (May 25th-August1st). I love walking my dogs and would love to walk yours too. I can work on leash training with your dog, as well as the basics. I can drop in and visit your dog or cat, walk them, feed them, and keep them company for a little while. I make sure that animals are never left unsupervised. If I’m not home, animals will be kept separate. Anything you need when it comes to walks and visits, I’m your gal!
About: I currently have a cat and understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pet. I have worked in nursing homes and provided home healthcare for veterans which has taught me patience, responsibility, and attention to detail. I am also currently attending Wichita State University to earn my degree in Elementary Education. Between caring for people and my love for animals, I am committed to making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. Whether your pup needs a walk, or cat needs playtime, or extra attention while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. 🐶🐈⬛💕 I’m currently working part-time while attending Wichita State University, but I’m working toward making pet care my full-time focus. My schedule is flexible, and I do my best to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet care throughout the week; I’m happy to help whenever I can. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. As both a pet owner and someone with experience caring for others in nursing homes and home health settings, I understand the importance of trust, responsibility, and attention to detail. I will follow your pet’s routine, respect any special instructions, and make sure they receive plenty of care and attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident while you’re away. 🐾💕
About: I have taken care of neighborhood dogs growing up and assist in caring with my family dog. I have 2 indoor cats right now who I adore. I am a student with a very flexible daily and weekly routine. I am able to work around schedules to fit time to care for pets. I have 2 cats at home and they are so spoiled! For your pet I will ensure that I follow all directions you may have for me as well as make sure your pet feels as loved as if they were my own.
About: I have a huge heart for pets & animals in general - I have been drawn to them since I can remember! Growing up I used to assist our local vet with surgery prep and wound care. I realized I was meant more for the "loving" of animals rather than the "medical care" when vaccinations or other scary things happened - all I could do was comfort the pet! I have cared for almost every kind of pet there is, and I enjoy giving Moms & Dads the peace of mind I know that I need when I am busy or out of town. I work in West Wichita (my office IS pet friendly if your pup has the right temperament) and my hours are Mon-Thurs from 8am-5pm, and Fridays 8am-3pm. This limits my ability for mid-day stop ins during the week, but I am fully available in the mornings, evenings, and all weekend hours. All pet care routines are different! Since the level of care required can vary greatly from family to family, I offer a few different "versions" of each service, and modify my rates according to time/effort committed. Please reach out if you have a hybrid (drop-in/house-sit/boarding) request - if we are a good match I am confident we can find the right arrangement for your pets needs. I recognize that your fluff-butts are part of your family, and pride myself on the ability to make them feel loved and comfortable while in my care. Photos & videos are consistently sent along with scheduled updates - you will NEVER have to wonder if your pet is happy with me! If booking a longer stay, I prefer to iron out all details of your request with an hourly schedule so there is no room for confusion or misunderstanding. It is my first priority to make sure pet parents know that their baby is in the best hands so they can enjoy their time apart.
About: Hi, I'm Renee! I've had dogs for most of my life and love being around them. Big dogs, little dogs, lazy dogs, crazy dogs. They're all fun in their own way. I'm a local mom looking to earn some extra income doing something I actually enjoy. If I'm watching your pet, they're not just getting fed and let outside. I'll spend time with them, play with them, talk to them like they're people, and make sure they're comfortable while you're away. You can also expect lots of photo updates because I know I'd want them too. :) A few things I can help with: - Feeding and fresh water - Walks and exercise - Playtime and companionship - Potty breaks - Basic medication administration when needed - Cleaning up accidents and pet messes - Daily photo and text updates I'm flexible and able to work around your pet's normal routine. Whether your pet needs a morning visit, afternoon walk, evening feeding, or overnight care, I'll do my best to provide consistent care and keep them comfortable while you're away. I understand how important routines can be for pets and will follow your instructions closely. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and home is a big decision. I'll treat both with the same care and respect that I would my own. Before any booking, I'd be happy to schedule a meet-and-greet so we can discuss your pet's routine, personality, medications, and any special needs. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: I have a very natural connection with most animals, and I am easily won over by them! I started caring for 3 senior dogs when I was finishing my undergraduate degree, and helping care for them was so fulfilling. I still keep in contact with their owner! I am comfortable doing feedings, going out on walks, and just hanging out with them if that’s what your pet needs. I am reliable, kind, and patient with all clients and their pets. I can’t wait to meet your furry family! I am currently working remote, so I am available throughout the day to pop over and check on your pets! I’m happy to swing by and take them for a quick walk morning, lunchtime, or even early evening if need be. Weekends are flexible. I pride myself on being in tune with the animal’s body language and comfort level. I am happy to stay and snuggle for a while if that’s what they seem to be needing, I can take them out and about around the neighborhood to blow off some energy, or I can do quick visits if they are a little more territorial or need some more time warming up. I treat my own cat with lots of love and respect, and I do the same with others’ animals because it is what I would want for my little guy!

“As soon as we were going out of town we knew right away we wanted our Honey girl to stay with Aurora and her sweet family! Aurora is quick to send updates with pictures and quick to respond. When we go pick up honey from her stay, she is so well taken care of and tired out from a good time. ☺️”
“I cannot say this from the rooftops loud enough, but Kate was amazing! From the moment she got our dog Abbey, I received photos and updates throughout our trip. She was able to spot check a few things at our house when she picked up our dog and even checked on the cat without us asking. We could tell Kate cared a lot about our dog and was very considerate with the time to pick up our dog. We are grateful that our dog loved her and her pets so much, she slept like a rock after their visit! This makes our next stay out of town a breeze, because we know who we are going back to!”
“Really impressed with Zhou’s care for our Mini Goldendoodle Buck. Lots of communication through pics and if we wanted to know how Buck was doing, Zhou answered quickly! I want to use Zhou in the future as our sitter!!”
“This family was so great! They did everything possible to make sure I felt good about leaving my dogs there, and both my dogs absolutely loved staying with them. They somehow managed to keep my escape artist husky in check, a feat which isn’t easy. My dogs looked very comfortable and happy to be there.”
“As usual, Muggsy had a wonderful time staying with Naomi. She treats him like her own. She's our go-to sitter from here on out. Thank you, Naomi for always taking excellent care of our pup!”
“Kylie is AWESOME!!! She sent great updates and pictures of my dog everyday. Super communication and accommodating for my crazy schedule. It looked like my dog had more fun with Kylie’s pack than she does at home. Definitely will book again.”
“As first‑time Rover users, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Sasha was honest, communicative, and treated our puppy like her own. We loved the photos and videos, and our pup came home even better behaved. We’ll definitely book again.”
“Amy was amazing with my dog, Brownie. He can definitely be a barker, but he’s a sweet, lovable boy, and she was so patient and understanding with him. She really treated him like he was part of her own family. She kept me updated the whole time with messages and photos, which meant so much to me. I never had to worry about how he was doing. She even asked about his preferences and routines to make sure he felt comfortable and at home. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. Brownie looked happy and relaxed, and that says everything. He totally didn’t miss me when I picked him up lol. You won’t find anyone like her. I’d trust her again in a heartbeat.”
“Thank you, Ron. I was more than pleased with how my pups were taken care of and with the frequent communications both prior to and during their stay. I'll definitely do this again when a similar travel need arises.”
“Dennis has done an excellent job caring for our dog and we are so greatful we have found such a kind and dependable sitter. Kuna was immediately at ease when we went for our initial visit. His backyard was clearly made specifically for dogs to enjoy! His own dogs were immediately also at ease with Kuna. Communication was also great with Dennis. He immediately replies to any inquiries and reaches out if he has any questions. Thank you, Dennis!”
“Sam was great with Daisy and super to work with. She puts a great deal of energy and effort in the care of the dogs. I highly recommend Sam and look forward to utilizing her services in the future.”
“Brittney did a great job communicating and had all of our dog’s stuff nicely packed for pickup. She’s got a huge fenced in yard that would be great to run around in. She was really sweet and our dog seemed to really like her. Would definitely book with Brittney again!”
“Lilly was GREAT with my little fur baby while I was gone. She kept me up to date with everything that was going on, and my baby looked like she had a blast! Lilly was also so kind to accommodate last minute.”
“Excellent communication and quick responses. Misty sent lots of pictures of the doggies and kept us updated. She took fantastic care of my dogs and I would definitely book her again!”
“As a first time dog owner with a long vacation planned, I was so anxious about trusting someone with my extremely energetic dog. SO glad I went with Madi. I received many photos and updates. Madi was thoughtful and created a Christmas card from Theo to me. When I got back home to Theo, I even noticed his behavior had improved. I will book with her again. Thank you, Madi!”
“Eric and Halie were amazing pet sitters for my dog, Obi! Obi can be a bit anxious, but they were amazing at setting both him, and his mom, at ease! They kept me updated on how he was doing with pictures and messages every couple of days. They were also very good about this nervous mom and her first boarding experience. Very friendly. Wonderful sitters. 10/10”
“Kylee was amazing!! We have 2 high energy dogs and she handled them beautifully, lots of attention and activity. She was communicative and very easy to work with. Definitely recommend!!”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets ever since I was a young girl. My parents would often foster kittens to which I would help and learn. When I was 11 and moved to Florida, I started to connect with my neighbors and created relationships where they trusted me enough to care for their pets and stay in their home. With experience in both dog and cat care, elderly and young, I’ve learned how to give medicine, understand what they need, and how to love them unconditionally. As a mom of two cat babes, I understand the need for a loving presence when you cannot be there for your own animals and would love to be able to be that for anyone else. Currently I work part-time with time to spare at home for pet care. I already spend many hours at home with my own fur babies, so I wouldn’t mind at all splitting that time with others staying in the house! Saturdays I work an 8 hour shift, but any other day is wide open. I have two cats in my home, and they have free roam of the house. I am not one to restrict where pets can and cannot go since this is their first time living as well and are curious creatures. If I have a dog with me, then I try to be where they are, providing supervision and company.
