“She was amazing! She sent me pictures of her and my fur baby and my Diamond started getting attached to her! She kept me updated the entire 4 days and I will definitely be returning if I need care again. I was nervous because it was my JRT's 1st time boarding but she made it super fun and relaxing for her! Thank you so much”
“Nicolette was great! Ari seemed to enjoy himself! He’s an only dog and we do not do doggy parks! Just outside walks so when he’s around other dog he gets a little to excited! She responded and sent pics. Thank you”
About: I’ve been caring for animals from a very young age, growing up on a farm where tending to a wide variety of animals was part of my everyday life. That experience gave me a strong understanding of animal behavior, responsibility, and the importance of consistent, attentive care. Over the years, I’ve become comfortable working with dogs of all ages and needs—from energetic puppies who require patience and structure, to senior dogs who benefit from a gentler, more attentive approach. I also have experience caring for dogs with medical needs and am confident in following detailed care instructions, including administering medications when needed. I’m especially mindful with anxious or shy dogs, taking the time to build trust and create a calm, reassuring environment so they feel safe and secure. I am currently working full-time less than 5 minutes from home. I feed my dogs and let them out around 7:00 am before work. My husband is home with our dogs until 2:00 pm before he leaves for work. I arrive home around 5:00 pm and I spend most of my evening in the backyard if possible. I have a fenced in yard and a basket full of toys. I have 2 dogs of my own that enjoy playing with others, so your pet is sure to be in good company.
“Angela and Bill absolutely pampered our senior greyhound. She is very nervous in new environments, but they made her feel completely safe and cared for while we were away. They went above and beyond to make sure she ate every meal, took all of her medications, and stayed comfortable and happy the entire time. They even gave her a bath before we picked her up, which was such a thoughtful touch. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our sweet senior girl was being loved on like family. We would absolutely trust them with her again and cannot recommend them enough.”
“Debra made us comfortable leaving our little buddy for the first time. She updated us with pictures and antics. Upon our return we found our guy happy and well cared for. Couldn't have asked for more.”
“Keith was awesome! Only second time leaving our 3 YO Jack Russell “Barney” with anyone, first time with a stranger. He has always slept with us ( I know I Know) and I wasn’t sure how that would work out. Turns out Barney enjoyed sleeping with Keith’s pack and made it through the night. We will definitely board with Keith again.”
“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.”
“Marqita was great! She is proactive in letting you know how your dog is doing during the stay and she makes sure to ask the proper questions to make sure they will be comfortable while you are away! This was my first experience on Rover and I definitely will be using them from now on especially Marqita!”
“Daylen took the best care of our puppy and kept us informed daily on how he was doing. She sent pictures and videos, and we could tell he was having the best time. We were worried he wouldn’t want to come home. We will definitely be using her again as he has found his home away from home!”
“Mr. Leon was great, my 2 dogs looked like they were having a good time with the other dogs. They were a little thirsty when they got home, but that's understandable with more than 4 dogs in the house, they'd be urinating constantly. I will be definitely using Mr. Leon's services again!!!! Thank You!!!!!”
“Theo absolutely LOVES Janelle, we don’t know what she has haha but he goes crazy when we get into her apt complex and is always so happy in all of the photos she sends us!:)”
“Savannah took in my dog on short notice, was very thoughtful to make sure to accommodate for special needs. Cricket looked very relaxed when I picked her up. Thank you Savannah!”
“Gabby is amazing! She kept Lux over Easter and did an Easter Egg Hunt and had an Easter Basket made for her. Lux had a wonderful time and absolutely loved staying with Gabby! 100/10 would recommend!”

“debra was such a miracle. i needed a last minute sitter for my kitty and she made herself available. great communication. definitely would recommend her to anyone!”
“Ms. Jamryiah was very kind and patient with both me and my dog. I was initially nervous about allowing someone into my home and trusting them to care for my dog, but she did an excellent job. She communicated effectively throughout the process, and my dog truly enjoyed his time with her. I highly appreciate her professionalism and care.”
About: What sets me apart is my patience, attentiveness, and natural caregiving personality. As a future nurse currently studying at Southeastern, I’m very detail-oriented and comfortable following specific routines while paying close attention to any changes in behavior. I’m especially gentle with young pets who are still learning and need consistency. I also have a senior cat of my own, so I understand the extra patience, comfort, and attentiveness older pets need. Whether your pet is energetic or prefers a slower pace, I will care for them like they’re my own.
“Adeline did an AMAZING with our very shy cat!! She knew how to make Nila feel comfortable and had her come out of her shell while we were gone. Adeline was in communication with us with every visit and giving us updates on how Nilas was doing. Adeline is the best!”
“Amazing sitter. Communicative, attentive, punctual and a real live Snow White. I had one of my cats pass away the day before she was to start her visits and it was breaking my heart to have to go in and remove him from the booking, she took charge and just did it for me. She just intuitively knew and I’m so thankful for that. I will absolutely use her anytime I have to go out of town again. I didn’t worry for a moment while I was gone. I just can’t say enough great things about her.”
About: I've owned pets my entire life. I have personal experience caring for a range of dogs from Mastiffs to chihuahuas. I also own 3 cats. I currently have a flex work schedule the allows me to leave work during the day or early if I need to check on animals! I live in a gated community, with a gated dog park across the street. My balcony is blocked off to prevent cats from jumping off.
“Karsyn kept in good contact in the days leading up to the scheduled meet and greet. She asked great questions and caught on very quickly to the commands we use and routines we follow. She showed confidence and kindness in her interactions with our Stella in her first solo drop in visit. We have and will book again with Karsyn.”
“We are extremely grateful for Michele's care of our kittens during our vacations and work trips. Thanks to the Rover app, we found her and it has been a fantastic experience. Michele has been amazing with our kitties, even the super shy one. We now go on trips with complete peace of mind, knowing that our fur babies are being well taken care of.”
“Brittany did a great job sitting our cat. She was always on time, sent pictures and communicated very well with us while we were out of town. I highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future.”
About: Growing up, we primarily had indoor-outdoor shop cats that I helped to care for. This included raising a cat from kitten. I have now lived my entire adult life living with and caring for cats, ranging from helping former roommates care for their cats all the way to our current two cats. We have had both of our cats from kitten and have had them since 2020 and 2021. Our cats are well cared for and are fully up to date on all veterinarian care. I promise to care for your cats like they are my own.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Whenever family members or friends needed anyone to watch their dog I was the first person they’d call. I treat animals like people because they have feelings too. I’m currently looking for a new job so I'm free to do walks in the morning. I’m usually free in the evenings if ever needed to watch your pets at night. Whenever watching other people’s pet I usually ask how they want me to take care of them. Usually I try to keep my dog and the clients separated in the beginning.I’ll spend time with them equally then slowly work up to see how they do together. I usually walk Atticus around the neighborhood at the end of the day. I’ll walk him in the mornings and afternoon with him in the backyard.

“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.

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.

“Tenay is a skilled and enthusiastic dog walker who keeps in touch when caring for pets.

She sent photos and videos and I felt confident that he was Ok at all times.”
About: I absolutely adore animals of all shapes and sizes! I personally have 2 dogs and a cat but I’ve had snakes, a chinchilla, rats, guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, among other family pets. I’ve never sought out an animal, I’ve only taken in animals when other people couldn’t continue caring for them. I adore any animal and love connecting with them. I also previously worked at Camp Bow Wow so I’ve worked with 100’s of dogs with different temperaments, personalities, and personal needs. While working there I had to give all sorts of meals and medicines. Everyday, I have to do basic pet tasks such as feeding, changing water, changing litter, and medications. I also walk my dogs multiple times a day. I follow any basic rules set out for me, i.e. diet, walk time, social time. They are the children of the owner and I understand they sometimes need special care or the pet and owner have a certain routine in place. But I have basic knowledge on plenty animals and can gladly care for them as if they are my own.

“Adeline does a great job with our dog Samwise! She always sends us photos of their walk and makes sure to give him plenty of time out of his crate when we can’t come home in the middle of the day!”
About: I have had the privilege of growing up surrounded by animals of all kinds, from dogs and cats to cows and beyond. Animals have always been a central part of my life, and that love and care extends to the pets I look after. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your beloved pet, and I’m here to offer a safe, loving, and attentive environment for them while you’re away. I currently have a dog who holds a very special place in my heart. He has some special needs, so I’m continually learning new ways to ensure he receives the best possible care. I’m comfortable administering medication and adjusting care routines to meet the specific needs of each pet, whether they’re young and active, senior and slow, or have unique health considerations. I work full-time Monday to Friday, 7 AM to 4 PM. On weekends, I’m usually fully available, and I can also meet in the evenings and mornings before work. When caring for pets in your home, I focus on providing a comfortable, safe, and consistent environment for your pets. I do this by following routines and maintaining a familiar space.
“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: I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. Growing up with pets taught me responsibility, patience, and the joy that comes from truly understanding an animal’s needs. As an adult, I’ve continued that commitment through responsible pet ownership, giving my own pets a loving, structured, and enriching home. My foundation in animal care goes even deeper thanks to my years in 4‑H, where I gained hands‑on experience in dog husbandry. From training and grooming to understanding canine behavior and proper health routines, 4‑H gave me practical skills that I still use every day. It shaped the way I approach pet care—with intention, respect, and a focus on safety and well‑being. Whether it’s daily walks, structured play, or simply offering a calm, comforting presence, I bring a lifetime of experience and genuine love for animals to every pet I care for. Your dog isn’t just another booking to me—they’re a member of the family, and I treat them with the same attention and affection I give my own. Working from home allows me to build pet care into the rhythm of my day in a way that feels effortless and intentional. Mornings start with a quick check‑in, fresh water, and a walk to get everyone moving. Throughout the workday, I’m able to offer consistent companionship — whether that’s a midday potty break, a play session between meetings, or simply being a calm presence while I work. I can keep an eye on their behavior, maintain feeding schedules, and respond quickly to their needs. Afternoon breaks often turn into enrichment time: a walk, a puzzle toy, or a little training practice to keep their minds engaged. Even as I wrap up my workday, pets stay part of the flow — evening walks, dinner routines, and plenty of attention. Working from home means your pet gets steady care, structure, and affection woven naturally into my day, not squeezed in around it. I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly dogs (74 lb. silver lab + 35 lb. terrier mix). My goal is to keep your pets routine consistent while providing a clean, safe and calm environment. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal rhythm. I follow your feeding, walking, and medication schedules exactly as you outline, and I make sure they get the same level of attention and affection they’re used to. I also keep your home tidy, respect your space, and provide updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Caitlin is what happens if Dr. Doolittle has a baby with Artemis, goddess of the hunt and then Jane Goodall mentors that baby to be a kind, knowledgeable, badass animal caretaker.She handled my two monsters like a boss, playing with them a while before leash training my wild puppy while also letting my old man puppy take much needed walking breaks to roll around and sniff. She gave prompt updates and lots of pictures (which I LOVED) and I intend to use her for all my dog walking in the future.”

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.
About: I have always loved animals with all my heart, especially dogs! I grew up caring for them and i am currently the owner of one who LOVES meeting other dogs. She is the highlight of my life! I often go to the dog park not only for my dogs enjoyment but my own as well! I treat dogs as if they are people. I treat them with respect, i make sure they’re well taken care of, and i am not judgmental based on their breed, size, or look! I make sure whenever i encounter a dog, they are loved as if they are my own! I don’t treat any dogs differently! No dog left behind!!! I’m currently working another pet care app as well so I have a pretty available schedule! I’m available as early as 6am and various times throughout the day! When offering services in a clients home, I limit myself to what the client gives me access to! What the client gives me access to, I care for like it is my own! I make sure to follow instructions that all pet parents leave for their fur babies! I keep the pet parent updated while their beloved pet is under my care! When leaving I make sure the fur baby is settled well and all instructions from the parent are followed. I make sure to lock all doors and turn off any lights I may have turned on on the way out!

I like to make your pet feel as if my home is their home as well. Any time your dog stays with me they will be treated just as I treat my own dog, with love, care, and compassion. I enjoy going on walks and would happy to take your dog on a neighborhood walk with me. I am happy to accommodate any other special requests you may have for your dogs visit. We have a dog park close by that I enjoy going to as well. Whether you are going out of town for a night or a week, I’d be happy to care for your pet My husband and I work Monday through Friday but have weekends and nights off. So your animal should be able to be alone for 8 hours. But on weekends and nights we enjoy going for walks or out to the dog park to exercise and play I have a fenced yard but dont leave animals outside by themselves. I will treat your dog just as I treat my own. I have a crate if your animal needs one it feels safer being in one.

About: I’ve been caring for animals from a very young age, growing up on a farm where tending to a wide variety of animals was part of my everyday life. That experience gave me a strong understanding of animal behavior, responsibility, and the importance of consistent, attentive care. Over the years, I’ve become comfortable working with dogs of all ages and needs—from energetic puppies who require patience and structure, to senior dogs who benefit from a gentler, more attentive approach. I also have experience caring for dogs with medical needs and am confident in following detailed care instructions, including administering medications when needed. I’m especially mindful with anxious or shy dogs, taking the time to build trust and create a calm, reassuring environment so they feel safe and secure. I am currently working full-time less than 5 minutes from home. I feed my dogs and let them out around 7:00 am before work. My husband is home with our dogs until 2:00 pm before he leaves for work. I arrive home around 5:00 pm and I spend most of my evening in the backyard if possible. I have a fenced in yard and a basket full of toys. I have 2 dogs of my own that enjoy playing with others, so your pet is sure to be in good company.
“So glad Snoopy could play with other dogs and Emery was able to squeeze us in for our weekend of football festivities! Snoop’s hooman big bro won too so an awesome weekend all around!!”
“Keith was awesome! Only second time leaving our 3 YO Jack Russell “Barney” with anyone, first time with a stranger. He has always slept with us ( I know I Know) and I wasn’t sure how that would work out. Turns out Barney enjoyed sleeping with Keith’s pack and made it through the night. We will definitely board with Keith again.”
“Our dog Marley tends to be anxious in new situations since she was a shelter dog, but seemed comfortable in Amanda’s home the moment we walked in for drop off. It made me feel much better about leaving our newly adopted girl for over a week! She sent updates and pictures often while we were on vacation. Would not hesitate to use Amanda again for future dog sitting and will recommend her to my friends!”
“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.”
“She took excellent care of my dog. She also did a great job administering twice daily flushing/drop regimen for an ear infection we found just days before our trip.”
“Mr. Leon was great, my 2 dogs looked like they were having a good time with the other dogs. They were a little thirsty when they got home, but that's understandable with more than 4 dogs in the house, they'd be urinating constantly. I will be definitely using Mr. Leon's services again!!!! Thank You!!!!!”
About: I have had and taken care of pets of all kinds (but especially dogs) since I was very young! I’ve had experience with puppies, young dogs, and older dogs, male and female. Even now I help take care of relative’s dogs and I love it. I feed, watch, walk, and make sure they’re happy! I stay in good shape and walk / workout every day, so I am able to handle larger breeds if needed! I live near LSU lakes which is a great place for walking, I usually go around the lakes when I go for walks, so I am familiar with the area well. It’s a great experience for people and pets! I’m pretty flexible and usually available for any activities! I am going to be taking 2 online classes this summer which requires me to be home, it works out well to watch some sweet pups! I do not have any dogs or cats within my home currently. Any pet works just fine to be inside or outside! The living room, dining room, and kitchen are all fairly large open spaces and connected together.
“Savannah took in my dog on short notice, was very thoughtful to make sure to accommodate for special needs. Cricket looked very relaxed when I picked her up. Thank you Savannah!”
“Robin is amazing!! My Oso instantly loved her and ran right into her home, I felt very comfortable leaving him with her. She had so many toys for him to play with and even sent us home with a couple! You can tell she is an animal lover and will care for your dog as her own! Absolutely recommend & will be contacting her for dog sitting in the future.”
“Jennifer was truly a blessing. She agreed to take Wesley at the very last minute, and I honestly can’t express how much that meant to me. From the moment I met her, I felt a sense of calm. She was warm, attentive, and clearly comfortable caring for larger dogs. Wesley is a 100 lb Weimaraner, and leaving him isn’t something I take lightly. Jennifer made it easy. She kept me updated and treated him with patience and kindness. When I picked him up, he was relaxed and well cared for, which told me everything I needed to know. I’m sincerely grateful for her flexibility and the care she showed my big baby. I would absolutely trust her with him again.”
“Mark was fantastic! I was in town visiting family that are afraid of dogs. Mark watched Cloud and provided pics of walks, which my pup enjoyed greatly. Knowing Mark will care for Cloud will make it so much easier for me to visit family in the future.”
“Gabby is amazing! She kept Lux over Easter and did an Easter Egg Hunt and had an Easter Basket made for her. Lux had a wonderful time and absolutely loved staying with Gabby! 100/10 would recommend!”
