“Julia is great. She took good care of my dog Ronny while we are on vacation. She replies message in a very timely manner and sends us Ronny’s pictures frequently to ensure Ronny is a good caregiver’s home. I would highly recommend Julia to anyone who need dog cater.”
“Michelle has become my sweet boy Rocco’s home away from home. I can’t say enough good things about her and her family! Rocco LOVES going to Michelle’s to hang out while we are away. I remember thinking back to how nervous I was to leave him with somebody that wasn’t family, and now I am fortunate to say I don’t worry one bit. We have used Michelle so many times over the past few years and are so lucky to have found somebody so wonderful.”
“Michael was very communicative the whole time, and our Caju had a great time at his house! He was well taken care of and came back happy and tired :) I’ll definitely do it again when needed!”
“Yenny and her family where extremely amazing 🥰 my Winnie was happy being around them for being her first time spending the night out of her comfort 🩷🫶🏼 she did well I will definitely book again in near future with yenny. Definitely recommend her 💯”
“We are so grateful to have found Paul & Megan! From the meet & greet to Lilly's extensive 11 night stay, it was evident that Paul & Megan have a genuine care for dogs and treat them with love and individualized attention. The daily pictures and updates of Lilly's activites always brought a smile to our face and were reassuring that she was happy, safe and comfortable. We would highly recommend Paul & Megan and will definitely be using them whenever we need a sitter for Lilly.”
“After a day of daycare with Jodi, our timid dog was happy to go back for a long weekend 5 days later. We got updates about his comfort level and walks. We picked him up tired and happy!”
“She took such great care of Remi and we felt so at ease, even though it was the first time we’ve had our pup stay with someone else. We loved the updates and photos and will definitely be using Gienna again!”
“Boarding with Faith has been great! Any time I need to be out of town for work, Faith takes the stress of leaving your dog behind out of the equation. Would highly recommend using her!”
“Lindsey did a great job taking care of my two fur babies! She took care of them for a week when I visited my sister in Washington state. Lindsey sent me pictures every day. My pups absolutely loved her and her dog Tilly. I highly recommend her! Beth V”
“Natasha and Jonathan make our dog feel right at home! Our dog is usually timid when we drop her off at dog sitters, but after the first visit she was excited to see them and seemed very comfortable with them. They provided lots of updates and photos and were always prompt on answering my messages. I’m excited that we found a dog sitter that our dog is happy and we feel peace of mind leaving her!”
“Wendy was great! She was flexible with drop off/pick up and she provided lots of messages and pics while we were away. We felt very comfortable knowing that Sadie was well cared for and enjoyed her stay at Wendy's house. I would recommend her and use her again myself!”
“We are so pleased with Stacey's in-home care of our dog. She treated him like her own, kept us up to date with his activity, eating and sleeping, and she shared many photos. Stacey is easy to work with and reliable. Her fenced in yard is a bonus. Wouldn't hesitate to schedule again with Stacey!”
“Renee and her son were amazing with my dog. They were super sweet and always sent lots of messages and photos. Renee was gentle in telling me about my baby’s day-to-day activities, how he was feeling, and how he was sleeping. I think she took better care of him than any other Rover I’ve had over the years! Next time I’m traveling, my baby will definitely be with her.”
“Our minidoodle Sam had a great stay with Charlotte and Jordan, and their dog Kyber. Two things we especially like: They generally just take one dog at a time (more attention, and Sam loves attention!), and they live near some great walking trails. Very nice people.”
“Our dog always has a great time with Fae and Joseph! We also appreciate that they keep us informed with pics and videos during his stay. We can't say enough good things:)”
“Samantha was unbelievably helpful, thoughtful and communicative taking care of our little guy Benny during our wedding weekend up on the North Shore. She absolutely went above and beyond for us during a special, and specially chaotic, weekend - allowing us to make memories with him on our special day while knowing he was well taken care of through the night. We couldn't have pulled it all off without her!”
“Zelun was so good with our dog. We will definitely be using zelun in the future. He sent lots of photos and had great communication. He also brought Iggy on many adventures each day like the park and nice walks!”
“Rose was very kind, courteous and accommodating. She took great care of Palmer snd he loved his stay with her. She sent me frequent updates about Palmer with plenty of pictures, something I truly appreciated. I’m glad we found Rose on Rover and would definitely book with her again”

“Tawny was super responsive and took great care of my babies! They went above and beyond my expectations. Even when my kitties made a bit of a mess she cleaned it right up and informed me! My shyest cat loved her to bits too so if I ever need a sitter again I'm definitely choosing her!”
“Thanks for taking care of the pets. They had an amazing time with Rylee. We had a little bit of hiccup with ant getting into food situation as well as automatic food bowl breaking in the middle of the trip but Rylee was very kind to get us ant traps and clean the food up for the cats. Lots of great communication and amazing pictures. The pets were in a great hands.”
“Leslie is an amazing pet sitter! My cat can be a little shy and he loves Leslie- she does a fantastic job! She is thorough with her visits and photographs everything.”
“Lauren did a great job taking care of our two cats while we were on a week long holiday. She was reliable, friendly, and responsive. She sent notes and photos each day, and I felt very comfortable with her taking care of our pets. We returned to two healthy and happy cats! I would highly recommend her.”
“Sarah took the best care of my two cats, Tango and Mango!! They are rambunctious orange tabbies with big personalities and I am always hesitant about using someone unfamiliar to them. Sarah stopped over for a meet and greet before and they both took a liking to her. She visited every other day for a little over a week. She did an excellent job feeding them, changing their litter, and spending time playing with them. Sarah provided updates and pictures after each visit, which was much appreciated. She stayed in communication with me and made me feel at ease. The cats really liked her! I would absolutely recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable cat sitter. I will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“I can't say enough good things about Vanessa. Our trip was difficult to book a sitter for because we'd be gone for a whole month but she was able to cover the entire time for us. She stayed at our house and regularly sent wonderful pictures of our cats. Great communication! Plus, when we got back our cats were super relaxed. They clearly had a good time and weren't stressed at all. I will absolutely be using her again.”
About: I have experience caring for cats through various house-sitting jobs, as well as growing up with a couple of my own. I really enjoy their personalities—they’re independent, a little sassy, and tend to do their own thing, but still appreciate attention on their terms. I’m comfortable with feeding, litter box care, playtime, and making sure they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away.
“Lauren took amazing care of my nervous cat while I was away, even got her to come out to play. She was also very communicative and responsive, and was accommodating when I made a scheduling mistake and needed to add extra visits. I highly recommend booking with Lauren to care for your cat(s)!”
“This was the second time I used Anna to watch my cat. She was great ... checked in with me daily and even sent photos. Although my cat is more on the shy side, it was great to have a piece of mind knowing someone like Anna was checking in on her. Anna was super flexible in accommodating my last minute request for a sitter. Will definitely use her in the future.”
“Amanda was a great find for me! My 15 year old Puggle has a lot of health issues and needs a lot of care. Amanda has given me the opportunity to get out without worrying about him. She is reliable and very knowledgeable. Her love for animals is very apparent. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.”
“It was my first time using Rover, and Julia made it such an easy experience! She is so kind, and I am thankful that she was able to drop in on our cats while we were on vacation. She sent so many cute and funny pictures, and the cats seemed to really love her. She even went the extra mile and took our trash out for us. We will definitely book with Julia for our next trip!🫶”
“Michael was great with our kitties (as always). The kitties were timely cared for and were also treated extra special with treats and playing at each visit. We trust Michael with our babies and will continue to seek his services in the future!”
“Keelyn was amazing with taking care of my cat djinn :) very communicative and followed instructions very well. We did a meet and greet before the actual drop-ins and that made me feel very reassured I made the right choice. I will definitely be re-booking!”
“Jordan is magical. She got my feral cat’s trust and was able to pet her (the kitty does not allow me to touch her)! Jordan provided such good care to my kitties and her daily reports were very sweet. Thank you Jordan!”
“Catherine was wonderful to my kitties and a joy to work with. She’s reliable and resourceful even when my locks were finicky. She went above and beyond to care for my long haired cats, and I am so grateful to her.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Hathorne
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I love being surrounded by animals and have been around pets my entire life. For a long time now, I’ve been rescuing lost dogs and helping them find safe, loving homes. Currently, I have three dogs and a cat at my country house, as well as a 10-year-old senior dog at home. One of my dogs in the countryside is partially blind, and I'm the one who takes care of his special needs. This has given me great hands-on experience with senior and special-needs pet care. Spanish is my native language, and my home is fully bilingual! My kids are completely fluent in English and are always here to help with communication for all booking details and updates. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I am at home all day. My daily life revolves around taking care of my dog, maintaining our home, and waiting for my husband and children to return from work and school. Currently, my daughter is starting college this August, so I am looking for extra income to help pay for her tuition. This work is a perfect match for me because it naturally aligns with my everyday schedule, allowing me to give visiting pets full-time attention, love, and constant companionship. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. Since I spend my entire day at home, your pet will have constant presence and attention, a safe outdoor space, quiet walks and specialized care experience.
“My dog has separation anxiety and Julia gives him the attention and love he needs to feel comfortable while I'm gone. I love that she has a fenced in yard so my dog can sniff around safely and enjoy the sunshine!”
“We have now left our boy with Jade a few times and Jade has been absolutely amazing with our pup! She is so caring and we know our boy is not the easiest, as loving as he is, and Jade always has good things to say which is all we can hope for! Thank you Jade. Looking forward to the next visit!”
“Jodi took great care of our 3-month-old Japanese Spitz puppy. She made sure not to put him together with dogs that may hurt him. He enjoyed playing with other dogs in her large fenced backyard.”
“This was my first time on Rover and my yellow lab Gus had a great time with Rebeca and her family! She provided photo updates and was very friendly. They live on a nice neighborhood and have a great home for dogs to feel at home and play!! Thank you again. We will definitely be booking again with Rebeca”
“Fae and Joseph responded quickly and gave Patton a warm welcome. They had plenty of room indoors and outdoors for him to run and play. They also had very friendly dogs for Patton to play with, which Pat loves to meet and play with new dogs. Very personable and left me at ease leaving Patton that for the day. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of a dog sitter.”
“Booked Mirellys again and once again she was great. Chowder was thrilled to see her and came home tired and happy. Consistent, reliable, and clearly a favorite of his. Wouldn't book anyone else.”
“Dolev was very sweet with my anxious puppy. She asked a lot of good questions at the meet and greet- being thorough so both of our expectations could be met. The updates during his stay set my mind at ease.”
“Belinda was amazing with Juno and helped out while I was at work for a work trip! Juno had a great time and it was amazing knowing Juno was in great care! Thank you so much!”
“Indrajeet accepted our reservation at the last minute, which ended up being wonderful luck for us. What a kind and caring dog sitter. Monk and LouLou were immediately at ease. Fear not and book now. A wonderful experience!”
“Lupa had a great time with Jing and her family!! I received pictures of him and updates during his stay and I felt at ease knowing he is having a great time playing with his doggy friends and being taken great care of. I will definitely book again when I need a sitter for him!”
“Carol responded to the call of duty right when I needed her! I recently had surgery this week and overestimated being up for the challenge of healing and watching my pup. I attempted to call local pet hotels, but because my puppy hadn’t been with them before it was impossible to get in at the last minute. Carol not only replied right after I messaged her (at 7 AM in the morning) but she even agreed to meet me somewhere that was closer to my home (due to me healing and not able to be in the car for long) to pick up the pup. I truly recommend Carol and she has been such a lifesaver! She sent me a picture and updates of my pup (he has never been around anyone but myself and my family and this made me feel very at ease) and there were other pups for him to hang out with! She has even been checking up with my pup and myself the day after and I will definitely be using her services again. Thanks Carol!”
“Luciana's place is like Mojo's second home. He's so comfortable with her and her mom. We have left Mojo with them multiple times and Mojo is excited to see them everytime we drop him off. We love that we get plenty of pictures of Mojo throughout the stay. We're sure we're going to want Mojo to stay with them when we're away in the future.”
“I could not be happier with Maria and Caesar. My dog, Gary, can be a nervous little guy but by day 2, he was already happy to see Caesar at drop off and Caesar was excited to see him too! Maria sends me pictures and updates every day Gary is with them which gives me peace of mind while I’m at work. They’ve been really flexible with drop off and pick up times and have even accepted last minute bookings. I can’t say enough good things about Maria and Caesar and if Gary could talk, I’m sure he would say the same.”
“Emmitt loved Renee and hated to leave. She seemed very happy with her stay. Renee was a joy to talk to and I received many updated throughout Emmitt’s stay. I hope to use her services again in the near future.”
“Andrea has been lovely to work with, my dog Kiko has really enjoyed daycare with her and is always happy when I pick him up. She is very reliable and communicative and has made our first Rover experience a very good one. I will definitely continue to come to Andrea when Kiko needs a sitter!”

“Tawny has been to help my two dogs and cat a few times now and she always goes above and beyond. She pays exception attention to detail and always gives us a full report so we feel like we are not missing anything with our fur babies.”
“Elizabeth wonderful to work with and our rambunctious puppy absolutely loves her. She is very patient and kind and helps to reinforce Nova’s training. We know that she will take great care of our girl while we are away.”
“I think Matthew for the two quick walks this week. It was so helpful and you took care of Luna and I appreciate your feedback and I appreciate you walking her. I will definitely ask you again to walk her. Thank you so much.”
About: I've had a dog of my own for about 10 years, and I’ve also cared for other dogs for up to 5 days at a time. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I love being around dogs—they genuinely make me happy. I’m comfortable with puppies and senior dogs and always try to adjust to each dog’s pace and needs. I treat every dog like my own and aim to make them feel safe, loved, and at ease while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I work remotely with flexible hours, so I’m available for regular walks throughout the day. I love taking breaks to get outside, and walking dogs is the perfect way to add movement and joy to my daily routine. I do my best to follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they have fresh food and water, get plenty of playtime and affection (if they want it!), and keep their space clean. I respect the client’s home, leave everything as I found it, and always keep in touch with updates and photos.
“Sharon was amazing! She came over before we needed help with Fitz to meet him, and he loved her at first sight. She was communicative, quick to respond, and timely. I highly recommend!”
“Jessica is great with our dogs!! She is always on time and gives our dogs the attention they need! I am very happy with Jessica and the care she gives our dogs!!”
“Candi has been wonderful with my dog, Pepper! She’s done several drop-ins for me and always follows the directions I leave for feeding and care to a T, which gives me peace of mind. Today she also took Pepper out for a walk, and everything went smoothly. Pepper ! I really appreciate her reliability, clear communication, and the care she shows. Highly recommend!”
“Catherine has been great with our 2 black labs the last couple of months. They get excited every time she comes to the door, because they know they're going for a nice walk. We are scheduled for 3 walks a week but with the holidays, snow days,and work from home days the schedule has fluctuated drastically. Catherine has been very accommodating. I highly recommend her services.”
About: I am attentive, patient, kind, and empathetic toward all animals. I’ve spent my whole life around pets, grew up with four huskies, and have always wanted more pets in my life. I currently have two cats, a senior named Gatsby and a kitten named Pippin. I look forward to meeting and caring for your pets! I work from home full time and set my own schedule, so I can be flexible with timing of walks and drop in home visits. I have a car and easy access to all forms of transportation. I can visit your home and stick to your and your pets’ routines, or pop by in the middle of the day for walks and trips to the dog park.
“Fahad was great and easy to talk to. Fahad asked questions about my dog to better understand his needs and temperament for the walk. My dog had a blast and the pictures Fahad took were delightful.”
About: I have always had pets growing up. I currently have three cats and four dogs. I have experience watching both cats and dogs and would love to watch your pets too! I am currently available most days of the week. I work part time nights at a restaurant. On the days I work I am still available to watch/walk your pets before and after my shift. I can watch your cats or dogs whenever I am needed. I have done lots of dog walking in the past and am comfortable with any kind of dog. I would be happy to play with your dogs outside, take them for walks, and even just keep them company.
“Bella visited with Sonny again this past week on Tuesday & Wednesday & he was very happy to see her! They are forming a lovely bond & we are very grateful for the loving care she provides to our little guy!”
