Jena was the quickest to respond to any of my booking requests for service. She was professional and responded with me on changes to the service and requests I made afterwards. My dog seemed comfortable with the surroundings even though this was the first time I had bordered her with anyone. I’ll use her again if needed.

Jennifer is awesome! She provided pictures, was so communicative & so kind! Dropping my boy off, I was hesitant, as it was my first time using Rover, and she made all my worries go away! This was a last minute booking and she was SO accommodating and friendly. Back yard, other dogs, treats, toys… a pup’s dream! my doggy was worn out for nearly 2-3 days after!!!! I will absolutely utilize Jennifer’s wonderful care again! Thank you!!!!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of dogs through my previous work assisting a sitter on Rover. During that time, I helped with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and making sure each dog felt safe and comfortable in their environment. I worked with different breeds, sizes, and personalities, which taught me how to adjust my care to meet each animal's unique needs. I understand how important consistency, patience, and attention are when it comes to animals. Whether it's an energetic pup that needs extra playtime or a more relaxed dog that just wants companionship, I make sure they receive the care and affection they deserve. I'm also comfortable following specific instructions, including feeding schedules, medication, and any special care requests. My goal is always to create a calm, loving, and trustworthy environment so pets feel secure while their owners are away. I treat every animal as if they were my own and prioritize their happiness, safety, and well-being at all times. As a college student with a very flexible schedule, I'm able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the day. My availability allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and extended stays without feeling rushed. Because of this flexibility, I can adjust to your pet's routine and make sure they get consistent care, attention, and companionship whenever they need it. 1 understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I always prioritize safety by staying attentive, following instructions carefully, and making sure pets are secure and comfortable in their environment. You can count on me to provide dependable, respectful care while giving your pet the love and attention they deserve.

I received multiple updates and pictures while we were away. We’ve booked with her twice now and will continue to use her for the future.

One of my dogs got a small injury when dropping off and she was quick to jump into action and take care of it!! She kept me updated with daily pictures throughout their stay. My babies have a new best friend with Raven and can’t wait to go back!! I highly recommend her and her services & will be using her for future stays!!

I have 2 (somewhat litter box trained) ferrets, and Ashley took great care of them, despite how messy I know they can be. Thank you so much! They’re free fed and have a water fountain, and both stayed full the whole week and a half I was gone. I was so scared of coming back to ferret poop all over my house, but the place was perfectly clean. She even worked with me when I forgot to leave my key under the mat. Thank you again!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience working at a veterinary office, where I’ve gained valuable knowledge about pet health and behavior. I’m comfortable administering medications and providing special care for senior pets or those with medical needs. I also have experience training puppies, helping them learn basic commands and positive habits with patience and kindness. Above all, I’m passionate about animals and committed to giving each pet personalized attention, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care is an important and enjoyable part of my daily and weekly routine. Whether it’s walking dogs, feeding cats, or spending quality time playing and comforting animals, I make sure to prioritize their needs consistently. Working at a vet office has taught me the importance of regular schedules, so I’m very organized with feeding times, medication administration, and exercise to keep pets happy and healthy. I genuinely love making pet care a regular, rewarding part of my life. When pets stay in my home, I create a warm and safe environment where they can feel comfortable and loved. I stick to their regular feeding and exercise schedules to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I provide plenty of playtime and affection to help them feel happy and secure. I’m attentive to their individual needs, including any medication or special care, and I always monitor their health closely. My home becomes a cozy, caring space where pets can relax and enjoy their time while their owners are away.

Kristin was absolutely wonderful with my cat. I have never seen him get along with dogs, but he had no problem with her two! She even bathed him, something I’ve never tried. She gave him his insulin injections and said he ate well. She had nothing but good to say about his stay. She was very easy to work with, and was flexible with both arrival and pick up times. She continued to reassure me that Tank was well taken care of, and to enjoy my trip! I would definitely use her again, and would recommend her to anyone needing a caregiver for their pet!

About: Dogs are my absolute passion and I will always go the extra step to make a dog and their owner feel comfortable during a stay. I like to send a lot of pictures and videos to owners during stays so they can stay updated on their pup the whole time they are away. I have a lot of experience in care taking for animals as I grew up on a ranch with 5 dogs and worked at a doggy day care facility for over a year. I also currently volunteer at the local animal shelter 3 times a week. My plan is to open up my own dog facility one day. I own a very friendly husky puppy who can play with your dog . I am a Regional Manager for Anytime Fitness so my hours are flexible for dog care.

I am delighted to share my exceptional experience with Jena as a dog caregiver through the Rover app. Jena took care of my six-month-old puppy, Luna, for her first dog daycare adventure, and I couldn’t be more pleased. Jena’s care for Luna was outstanding – her attention to Luna’s needs and her nurturing approach made Luna’s first experience truly special. The regular updates and communication from Jena provided me with peace of mind throughout the day. Jena’s professionalism, combined with her genuine love for animals, made the entire process seamless and enjoyable. Luna not only received excellent care but also seemed genuinely happy in Jena’s company. I wholeheartedly recommend Jena to the Rover community. She is a fantastic caregiver, and I am grateful for the positive impact she had on Luna’s daycare experience.

Amaaaaazing! Porsha and her family are the sweetest. I knew from the start she'd do an amazing job with Kaiser. You can tell she has a undeniable love for animals, it shows! Kaiser has definitely found his second home and family. (:

About: My husband and I have always had pets growing up. We knew we wanted this for our children as well. Our daughter and son love pets and would want a farm if we allowed it! I am available mornings, afternoons and evenings. Before I leave for work all pets are fed and taken outside. Upon returning home I let the pets out again for a bit longer to play in our fenced in yard. Mornings begin with food and water and a morning treat. Bella lets us know when she needs to go out by going to the patio door. During the day she is very chill and usually lays on the sofa waiting on the kids to return from school. When everyone is home from work and school Bella is fed again and everyone gets some snuggles in with her.

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was 5 years old, and I also have a dog of my own (Millie:)) and my Shih Tzu baby Rico I’ve helped cared for back home. I give the same care , love , patience and attentiveness to every dog ! As I know it is important for your dog to feel safe and secure away from your home 💕 Since I do have a dog of my own , the necessities are apart of my everyday routine! I am in college full time however I am free everyday after 1pm . (Tuesdays , Thursdays and the weekend I am free all day:)) I am also very flexible so please don’t hesitate to ask questions ! Please note that I can not host more than one dog at a time due to me being a smaller space. Your fur baby will feel very comfy here ! My girl Millie has adapted to our relaxed routine which involves her feeding and bathroom schedule along play time and cuddles . We take trips to the public dog park as well as my apartment one. We also have plenty of play time inside . The same goes for your baby!

My experience with Robin was exceptional. I have used another sitter through Rover before and the experience was okay, but I noticed my puppy would come home very riled up and needing to immediately decompress. It often felt like I had to calm him down and get him back to his normal baseline. With Robin, the experience was completely different. When I picked him up, he was calm, relaxed, and acting exactly like he does at home. Even during the ride back, he settled into his crate and rested. That told me he was comfortable and well cared for during his stay. I was also a little nervous about having him around other dogs since he hasn’t spent a lot of time with other puppies. Robin was incredibly patient and reassuring. She allowed me to observe and helped me feel confident that he would be just fine, and he truly was. Another thing that stood out was how much my puppy liked her right away. As soon as he got out of the car, he was excited and curious about going inside, which meant a lot to me. I’m so glad I found Robin and truly look forward to working with her again. It’s clear my puppy felt safe and comfortable in her care.

This was our pups’ first time away from us and Jennifer was so great with them! We have a longer boarding stay coming up and wanted to see how they would do beforehand. She was so patient with my anxious boy and helped them both settle in in their own time. They were running around and playing by the end of the stay! She was also really communicative and kept us updated often with lots of photos. I’m incredibly picky about who watches my dogs, but after today, I have no reservations about leaving them in Jennifer’s care. They’ll be seeing her again soon!

About: I have always had animals in my life. I know each one is different and special. I grew up on a farm so I know having a loving and compassionate person to care for your babies is a necessity when you have animals. I am a stay at home mom so while the kids are at school I have plenty of time to come by and play with your babies. I have a fenced in courtyard area in my home. We also have two dogs that love other dogs. One is a rescue Maltese and is 12 years old. The other is a 2 year old poodle, he is my husband's service dog so usually he is at work with my husband all day.

About: Hi, I'm Terrie! I'm the person your pets will accidentally like more than you and may file a formal complaint when I leave. Don't worry -they'll still be thrilled when you come home! I'm basically a part time butler, snack distributor, belly rub technician, professional poop scooper, personal paparazzi and a humble servant to whichever four legged CEO is currently in charge. If it has paws, claws, wings, or a personality bigger than its body, I'm probably going to adore it. Pet care is truly a family affair in our home. My family is very hands on and shares my love of animals, which means your pets get plenty of extra attention, affection, care, and at least three separate rounds of “who’s the cutest?” commentary. I’m the proud human of 3 huskies, 10 cats, 2 chameleons, and a fish crew - so chaos, cuddles, and a little bit of fur are basically my normal. In our house, dishing out treats is an Olympic sport, and I am absolutely going for gold. I’ve mastered the art of negotiating with pups and earning cat approval. My mission? Keep tails wagging, whiskers twitching, and pet parents completely worry-free. I'll send plenty of updates, lots of adorable photos, and return your pets happy, loved, and only slightly convinced they've hired me as their new personal assistant. New Pet Friends = Mandatory Meet & Sniff! 🐾 I have one tiny rule: every new pet friend gets a meet & greet before we make things official. I like to let your pet decide if I'm worthy of joining their staff, and hopefully earning a tail wag, nose boop, or dramatic cat stare of approval. It's the perfect time to learn their routines, favorite treats, secret hiding spots, and any adorable quirks - so when booking day arrives, we're already best buds! Travel Policy: If you're more than 15 miles away, there's a $10 travel fee per visit will be added to help keep my gas tank as happy as your pets. I have an embarrassingly open schedule. Rain? No problem. Sunshine? Even better. I'll happily brave the weather for potty breaks, neighborhood adventures, epic games of fetch, or a cuddle session worthy of an Olympic medal. Your pets set the agenda - I'm just their very enthusiastic assistant. Life loves to throw curveballs, so I do my best to accommodate last minute schedule changes whenever I can. Whether you're stuck at work, planning a spontaneous getaway, or your meeting magically turned into "one more hour," I've got you covered. Big, small, fluffy, scaly, feathery, or suspiciously crunchy - I love them all. I've cared for everything from tarantulas and snakes to rabbits and hedgehogs, so I don't scare easy. Your pet will be treated like royalty, spoiled beyond reason, and lovingly convinced this is their all inclusive vacation resort. Belly rubs? Unlimited. Snacks? Duh. Personal fan club? Already formed. I'll happily accept my role as their humble servant while they run the household.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience working at a veterinary office, where I’ve gained valuable knowledge about pet health and behavior. I’m comfortable administering medications and providing special care for senior pets or those with medical needs. I also have experience training puppies, helping them learn basic commands and positive habits with patience and kindness. Above all, I’m passionate about animals and committed to giving each pet personalized attention, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care is an important and enjoyable part of my daily and weekly routine. Whether it’s walking dogs, feeding cats, or spending quality time playing and comforting animals, I make sure to prioritize their needs consistently. Working at a vet office has taught me the importance of regular schedules, so I’m very organized with feeding times, medication administration, and exercise to keep pets happy and healthy. I genuinely love making pet care a regular, rewarding part of my life. When pets stay in my home, I create a warm and safe environment where they can feel comfortable and loved. I stick to their regular feeding and exercise schedules to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I provide plenty of playtime and affection to help them feel happy and secure. I’m attentive to their individual needs, including any medication or special care, and I always monitor their health closely. My home becomes a cozy, caring space where pets can relax and enjoy their time while their owners are away.

I left for 3 weeks and needed a reliable, loving, caring person to take care of my two sweetheart fur babies who are about a medium size. Allison was always in touch about what was going on and gave thorough reports on how her visits went, which really helped me enjoy my vacation so much more. Allison quickly developed an outstanding relationship with Eli & Bagels to the point where they were wagging their tales anticipating her arrival! Could not be more pleased and appreciative for Allison! Would absolutely recommend her for any pets who are treated like sweet babies as I treat mine!!

About: All the Doggies sleep with me in my bed! They are allowed on furniture & anywhere they’d like to be comfortable. I worked for Companion Animal alliance in Baton Rouge working with dogs & cats as a caretaker. I mobile groom for people around the Livingston parish area & I’m well known on the nextdoor app. I have a bunch of references! I am very passionate about your fur babies & one day will open up my own business building for grooming/boarding & as new clients you would be adding to my fund for that. It has been my life long dream to accomplish this one day & I am going to keep working towards that. I want to expand this business into something much bigger & for people to feel at ease with leaving your babies in the care of someone who will love them unconditionally. All you have to bring for your baby is their dog food/cat food. I have dog/cat bowls, leashes, toys, puppy pads, litter boxes, litter, cat toys, cat/dog beds, ( I supply dog treats ) I do not put the babies in kennels unless instructed to do so by you if you bring your own. At bed time I put on relaxing music for the dogs to calm down & sleep, heating pads for cold nights, lots of blankets & beds. Any of their comfort items I would suggest bring with them. I do live in a new trailer, lots of room for your babies to roam & play! non smoker. I have experience with large dogs to small dogs, senior dogs & ones with bad anxiety or kennel aggressive ect. I also have experience with birds, especially parrots. I know how to handle in any situation when it comes to different behaviors from animals. I am also pit bull friendly 💕 The babies I board/doggy daycare have FREE ROAM. Which means they can go as they please anywhere in my home, they can sleep with me or they can sleep on the couches or their beds, but If you prefer your baby in a kennel at night, I will respect your wishes. I only have one kennel designated just for that.. You will receive lots of pictures/videos & updates to the point where it may be a little annoying but you’ll never have to text me first checking on them. I give them lots of love! I stay home everyday with the babies, so they will get all of the attention they need. The night before pick up/drop offs, I do give them a bath, each one no matter what. I can pick your dog up or drop them off, I have never had an issues with any dogs fighting, running off or accidents. I am VERY experienced in RUNNERS, the ones who wait for you to open the door to escape. Never had a runner succeed in getting away. I can clip your babies nails & give them a little trim if need be free of charge. If your dog needs medication I can administer it to them at the times needed. Prozac, prednisone, insulin, antibiotics ect, I’m familiar with all. Thank you for taking the time to read this & hopefully you have found the right sitter for your baby/babies. 🐶 I bring the babies to the dog park twice a week along with water treats & toys. I can manage 5 at a time ( leashed ) I do have a fenced in yard with a doggy pool, it’s covered & has pet turf. Lots of room for your baby to play!! This is what I do for a living! I eat breathe & sleep doggies. I stay home full time & when I say full time it’s me & the pups home everyday. I LOVE & taking care of your 4 legged sweetie pies, when you book with me it will allow me to continue to care for the fur babies & accomplish my life long dream to open up a bigger place to care for more. 💕 I truly appreciate repeat customers, but with inflation the way that it is, the cost of gas being so high, I had to make the difficult decision to raise my prices up to $2 more since last year. I understand if you choose to look elsewhere for services, but I hope that you choose to continue to use me. & for new clients ❤️ I have a small male dachshund that gets along with animals & kids very well! I am 100% committed to your pets to make them & you comfortable with my services. I treat my clients babies just like I would my baby!

About: I have been the go-to professional and friend for pet care and house-sitting for many. My goal is always to give your pet and home the same care and consideration I would my own. I have had pets since I can remember. My first pet was a jet black cat resembling the color of a raven. I learned and practiced numerous pet care tactics which allowed my cat to live a very fruitful life to 20 years old. I also had a delightful Bischon with a spunky personality that was always the life of the party. I am no stranger to large size or senior age pets, but am also well acquainted with service dogs. I have experience with pigs, fishes, snails, but my most favorite of all horses! I truly enjoy engaging with furry loved ones and giving them the tender care they obviously deserves! I currently have a very flexible schedule that allows me to give your fur baby lots of attentive care, playtime, and mental stimulation by providing activity throughout the day. I have a fenced-in yard with ample space and love to go for strolls around the neighborhood and local parks. I love to play games and engage throughout the day.

I'll always follow your instructions, keep fresh water available, and ensure your dog has a fun and safe experience every time. 🐾

About: Hi! My name is Shayna Malonson, and I’ve always had a deep love for animals—especially dogs. I grew up with dogs my entire life, and now as an adult with my own home, I’m lucky to have two of my own: Ally (4 years old) and King (2 years old). They are a huge part of my daily life and have taught me so much about responsible, loving care. I personally bathe my dogs, brush their teeth, and handle their basic grooming after learning how to properly care for them myself. Through experience—especially managing my older dog’s dry skin—I’ve learned a lot about different dog food brands, skin-care products, and overall dog wellness. This has helped me become very attentive to each dog’s individual needs. In my free time, I enjoy playing fetch, going on simple walks, and giving my dogs plenty of love and attention. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I would love the opportunity to care for your dogs as if they were my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m home often and able to give dogs consistent attention throughout the day. My schedule allows me to plan feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest periods without rushing. I build my day around the dogs in my care, making sure they receive regular supervision, exercise, and companionship. Whether it’s morning and evening routines, midday check-ins, or overnight care, I’m flexible and dependable. I enjoy keeping pets on a steady schedule so they feel comfortable and secure I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet in my care. In my home, dogs are treated like family and are always supervised. I make sure the space is clean, pet-safe, and free from hazards, with plenty of room for rest, play, and comfort. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I’m experienced with basic grooming care such as bathing and brushing, and I pay close attention to skin sensitivity, diet needs, and overall well-being. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. I ensure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure, and I never leave pets unattended outside. Trust and communication are very important to me. I provide updates, photos, and messages so owners feel confident and at ease while their pets are in my care. My goal is always to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: My family and I have always had multiple dogs raised from puppies to full grown dogs that I helped to care for. This includes walking, bathing, feeding, playing fetch, trimming nails and taking them to the vet. I have also taken care of our farm animals daily needs. I work part time and my day to day schedule is very flexible. I am open to same day sitting jobs if needed. I am available to take dog to the vet as well. I have one friendly dog that loves furry company. I can accommodate needs of sitting location, depending on client’s preference. I have toys, crates, treats and dog beds to ensure comfort and needs are met.

Jena was the quickest to respond to any of my booking requests for service. She was professional and responded with me on changes to the service and requests I made afterwards. My dog seemed comfortable with the surroundings even though this was the first time I had bordered her with anyone. I’ll use her again if needed.

Cody and Lauren are wonderful!! They took amazing care of our sweet dogs. We always feel a little guilty leaving them, but Cody and Lauren made it so easy! They kept us updated daily. And I think it’s safe to say our dogs think they went to summer camp!

Jennifer is awesome! She provided pictures, was so communicative & so kind! Dropping my boy off, I was hesitant, as it was my first time using Rover, and she made all my worries go away! This was a last minute booking and she was SO accommodating and friendly. Back yard, other dogs, treats, toys… a pup’s dream! my doggy was worn out for nearly 2-3 days after!!!! I will absolutely utilize Jennifer’s wonderful care again! Thank you!!!!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of dogs through my previous work assisting a sitter on Rover. During that time, I helped with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and making sure each dog felt safe and comfortable in their environment. I worked with different breeds, sizes, and personalities, which taught me how to adjust my care to meet each animal's unique needs. I understand how important consistency, patience, and attention are when it comes to animals. Whether it's an energetic pup that needs extra playtime or a more relaxed dog that just wants companionship, I make sure they receive the care and affection they deserve. I'm also comfortable following specific instructions, including feeding schedules, medication, and any special care requests. My goal is always to create a calm, loving, and trustworthy environment so pets feel secure while their owners are away. I treat every animal as if they were my own and prioritize their happiness, safety, and well-being at all times. As a college student with a very flexible schedule, I'm able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the day. My availability allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and extended stays without feeling rushed. Because of this flexibility, I can adjust to your pet's routine and make sure they get consistent care, attention, and companionship whenever they need it. 1 understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I always prioritize safety by staying attentive, following instructions carefully, and making sure pets are secure and comfortable in their environment. You can count on me to provide dependable, respectful care while giving your pet the love and attention they deserve.

If you love your dog and want them to have the best possible care I fully recommend choosing Alex and her husband they did a fantastic job. My dog Domino had the time of his life and I couldn't thank them enough. I got photos and videos of my dog just having a ball playing with their dogs.

We have been so happy with Tracy and her level of care for our toy poodle. Tracy and her kids treated our dog like she was family. I know our dog felt right at home while we were gone. I received multiple updates and pictures while we were away. We’ve booked with her twice now and will continue to use her for the future.

My 2 poodles had a stay for the weekend, I was nervous since this was their first stay but Rachel assured me everything will be fine and it definitely was! One of my dogs got a small injury when dropping off and she was quick to jump into action and take care of it!! She kept me updated with daily pictures throughout their stay. My babies have a new best friend with Raven and can’t wait to go back!! I highly recommend her and her services & will be using her for future stays!!

We were so happy to find Holly to watch our very active Doberman. Gemma is still young and learning so we needed someone familiar with her breed and energy level. Being that Holly runs a rescue we knew Gemma was in good hands and with someone who truly loves all animals. She’s got lots of room for the dogs to play and can accommodate dogs that play well together or dogs that need more one on one play. She kept us updated with pics and video & my girl was super happy!

This was my first time leaving Toto at home with anyone outside of family, and Lauren immediately made me feel comfortable and at ease knowing he was in good hands. She took great care of him, and Toto took to her right away, even laying on her and relaxing. It was clear he felt safe and happy. He spent the evening playing, cuddling, and getting plenty of rubs. I’m so grateful for the care she showed him and would absolutely trust her with Toto again.
