“Melissa did a great job taking care of yummy! We had a two-week extended stay. She shared photo updates regularly and flags issues proactively. Would recommend to anyone.”
“Dogs came home happy and well balanced! Clearly they had been well cared for and given the proper amount of exercise. Kexin and Carlos sent lots of pictures and videos giving me a lot of confidence and comfort in knowing that selecting them was the right choice! My dogs loved their large, fenced in backyard! My 2 dogs got along beautifully with their dog and cats. They even added some healthy supplements to my dogs’ food that they add to their dog’s food! Will be using them again soon!”
“Julie and Tiffany were absolutely amazing with our dog Luna. This was Luna’s first time staying with anyone and she was anxious. Julie sent us pictures and updates and Luna calmed down and enjoyed her stay and even made a new friend, Stella, another adorable pup staying with them. I can’t say enough about Julie and Tiffany. They are the dog whisperers and we are so grateful for the amazing care they gave our pup. Thank you!”
“Kira and Steve are terrific to work with, very easy going. They screen the pups to make sure they will play well with others and do what it takes to help the dogs feel at home. Their space is also amazing.”
“Heather was amazing with our dog! She gave her lots of love, walks, and play time, and also gave our dog her meds on schedule. We received daily updates and photos as well. Definitely recommend!”
“Recently we lost one of our two dogs. We had a trip planned for only a couple weeks later and had to board our second dog alone for the first time. Gabe was an excellent choice and probably the most knowledgeable in training that we have had so far! He was communicative, responsible, and made us feel completely confident while we were gone! Definitely will be giving him a call again for our trips.”
“Rosie and Teddy were well cared for during their stay. I felt very comfortable leaving the dogs in her care and will definitely use her again in the future. I enjoyed seeing photos and getting updates of their weekend with her!”
“It was totally comforting to have Lucy stay with Whitney and her husband. They were very nurturing, and very flexible with my timing. Lucy had a wonderful time there, and they treated Lucy like she was one of her own.”
“We boarded our dog for the second time for over a week with Vignesh and are extremely satisfied with his care and updates. He’s also very accommodating with our dates and pick up and drop off times.”
“Bridget was fabulous. Blue had some digestive issues. We communicated with Bridget ahead of time and she was extremely supportive and helpful. She administered new food and medicine while Blue was there. She is an absolute pro and awesome to work with!”
“Bethany has been caring for our dog for the last month and we are delighted. He is well cared for and loved. It's typically only one day a week. But it's exactly what he needs. Thank you Bethany for being such a great care giver!”
“I used Rover for the first time time with Emily and she kept me updated with pictures of my Lyla multiple times a day. She made me feel so reinsured and had a great fenced in yard for the dogs to roam. She even let my Lyla sleep with her which was so sweet! Thank you so much Emily!”
“Lingwen was AMAZING! She made Nico feel super comfortable at her home and welcomed. Lingwen sent updates and pictures of Nico thought out the stay which we loved. Thank you much again for caring for Nico! If you’re looking for a sitter, do not hesitate to book her. She’s the best :)”
“I was really impressed with Misael. We left our dog, Cindel, with him for the first time we’ve been away from her for a decent length of time. He gave us updates just about daily, including pictures. He informed us of things he noticed about her mannerisms and all her little quirks, and how she was getting along with other dogs and the household. I would definitely recommend him.”
“Natasha was amazing, I was extremely on the edge as my stay was a longer stay.She ensured my dog was comfortable and followed up and provided daily updates.I will soon be rebooking. So glad I found her. Thanks a ton Natasha.”
“Amy and Ryan are wonderful and so accommodating. They're able to keep constant care of our little guy Gersh, and give us the confidence we want that he'll be okay when we need to be away. Our flight home was recently delayed and with our work schedules the following day it could've been an issue, but we thankfully didn't need to worry. They immediately let us know it wouldn't be a problem at all, and were so understandable and easy to coordinate with. We're happy to have found them, and so is Gersh! Thank you!”

“Marcella quickly and eagerly responded to my inquiry. She met with us the following day and put me at ease. I am very nervous when it comes to someone else caring for our cat, Thunder! Marcella was punctual and consistent with her timing of caring for Thunder. She provided detailed updates which let me know he was in good hands. She not only completed the essentials, but also played with him and gave him lots of love and attention! She won our hearts ❤️ I will certainly book future pet sitting services with Marcella!”
“Jacey was amazing! She was always on time, very thorough during the check ins, and so sweet! Our cat Willow loved her and we will definitely be booking with her again :)”

“Nicole was great and my cat loved her! She kept me up to date with lots of pictures and texts during her visits which was awesome. It made leaving my cat at home a little easier knowing Nicole was checking in on her and giving her lots of love.”
“Amanda did great checking in on our ladies! She came even though it was snowing and put on the dog's sweaters did them to go outside (not requested!). Thank you, again, Amanda! You do a great job and I'd definitely recommend you.”
“Taylor is awesome! Our oldest kitty has diabetes and she has been our go to person to watch our cats when we are out of town, she helps by not only feeding them and giving our oldest kitty some insulin, but by playing with them and petting them. She has even brought in packages for us if there are any boxes outside. She is the best!”
“Stacy did a great job taking care of our home! Our kitties loved her and she gave them lots of attention. We had a battery go out in our gas fireplace and she called us to talk about the issue. The she found a you tube video and figured out how to replace the battery. We were grateful to not have to stress about it. Most importantly, our fur babies were comfortable with her!”
“Lindsay and her family are the best! They took Marlo right in like as he was their own and made him feel at home. The daily updates were amazing and made us feel very comfortable. Marlo didn’t want to leave and can’t wait to go back!”
About: On my 12th birthday I got a kitten from my parents. I've had a cat most of my life. I enjoyed playing with her, cuddling, cleaning her litter, petting and she purred at me often. I fed her, played, and slept beside her. She lived for 17 years and got very sick and old that we had to put her down in August 2023. Fun fact- I used to take my cat swimming in a lake with my cousin's dog.
“Carley took excellent care of my kitties while I was away for the first time since moving to a new home! She followed my info for feeding, playing etc to the tee and sent lots of photos during her visits. I could tell both my cats were super comfortable with her and were getting lots of love while I was away 🥰”

About: I have 2 dogs of my own and foster puppies and adult dogs as well. We also have chickens. I love animals of all types and understand how difficult it can be to find someone you trust with their care. I am a Registered Nurse and caring for animals comes as natural to me as caring for people. Caring for your pets gives me the flexibility to spend time with them but also be available as a mom. My daughter loves animals and is very helpful and loving. I have a flexible work schedule and mostly work from home. I am able to interact while working and provide frequent potty breaks and extra attention as needed. I do feed separately to avoid food aggression issues which can sometimes happen in new environments. I have 2 dogs of my own and a fenced in yard. There is plenty of space to run and play and also lounge and nap! We’d love to know what your dog's typical routine is at home as well as any behaviors (food/toy aggression) or quirks we should be aware of. I will do my best to accommodate any special needs. Please let us know if they are on any medications or have any health issues. I DO NOT accept dogs that are aggressive, excessive barkers, non-house trained, destructive, or have severe separation anxiety. All dogs who stay in our home must be well socialized, healthy (i.e. not sick with any contagious diseases that could be passed onto humans or other dogs) and up to date on their vaccines and flea/tick preventatives. Required vaccinations: Rabies Distemper Bordetella (kennel cough)
“We brought our Falco for daycare with Misael and we were so happy with the service!! Misael was super responsive and Falco seemed very happy to be there. Misael sent pictures and updates regularly. There was a nice yard and Falco was able to roam around to his heart’s content. Falco is a big boy and Misael and his family treated Falco like their own. We will be using his service again soon for overnight boarding and feel really comfortable with them. Thanks for making us feel like Falco is safe with you!!! Highly recommend!!”
“We connected with Bridget for some last-minute day care services. She was very responsive and accommodating. After our initial meet-and-greet, our dog made herself right at home when we dropped her off for her first day at daycare. We felt comfortable and at ease leaving our dog in Bridget's care along with her dogs Mac and Zuzu (who are both very sweet!). She also sent us pictures and updates while we were away, which we very much appreciated. We highly recommend!”
“Bethany is an amazing dog sitter. Our pup loves her! We couldn't ask for a better sitter!! She sends us pictures of our pups adventures and he gets so excited to go there!”
About: I’ve had the privilege of being a dog owner since the age of 13. Dogs are a part of my life and are so healing to the soul. I’ve had years of experience in loving and taking care of these fur babies. I do well with following instructions, being respectful, and creating a safe space & home for your pups. I would consider myself to be a great and responsible dog mom, sitter, and would love and take care of your dog like my own. I’m a stay at home mom and have the time to take care and play with your pups. I have space in my backyard for playtime and potty time and live in a beautiful neighborhood to go on walks for fresh air and exercise. My family spends a lot of time outside and so will your pup (weather permitting of course). I’m available during weekdays and weekends. My services include boarding and doggy day care. I have a backyard and beautiful deck to get plenty of playtime and sunshine. I also live right across the street from a large park that we can take trips to. I have a small and friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I will keep your dog on a leash while outside and/or can close off the deck for a more secure area.
“Corrine took such AMAZING care of our little havanese. Her dogs are amazing and play well with smaller breeds and the space they have for the dogs to run around is so great. Would highly recommend!”
“Enid was great! Sent me lots of pics and kept me updated and made me feel comfortable! She has a fenced in backyard and Kuna came back happy and healthy! She was very accommodating when I got stuck in traffic on the way back and I really appreciated that!!”
About: Hello nice to meet you! I am not simply boarding your pet. I am playing with them and taking them for walks and spoiling them. Im offering services for fun not a necessity. I work from home and your pet will be taken care of and monitored constantly as if it was my own the entire time. Your furry friend is my friend too. Clean & Professional. I have a great career that allows me to work from home. I do rover for fun. When you book with me you are booking someone who gives full attention to your pet. Safety first! I would be scared to leave my dog with someone. All pets deserve a pleasant experience. With me you can feel safe your pet is in good hands, you are welcome to visit my home for boarding!
“Paola and her husband did a wonderful job watching our Sparky! From the time we dropped him off we were very comfortable with them and the wonderful environment they provided for our pup. They are both very caring and I could tell Sparky had a great time!! I recommend them highly!”
“Andrew is great and very responsive. Whiskey had a good time and he’s surely been in great hands. Would definitely ask Andrew to watch Whiskey again! Thank you Andrew for taking care!!”
About: My very friendly little dog and I would love to host your dog here with us, up to 40 pounds only though...Or if your pal would benefit from a playmate, we would love to come sit for you! Well first off, I've been trusted with the care of many precious pets for years now...And enjoy it very much...I am fun, caring, and engaging, as well as all ble's, reliable, dependable, and responsible! And I took a CPR pet course, and human one as well. I have had cats mostly all my life, and now own a small dog of my own, who as I stated earlier, could, or doesn't have to if need be, come with me, as some love to have a playmate for their pet...And I know my friendly little guy very much enjoys the visit. But with anyone coming to my home, my guy will be there too, and they must all be friendly, and then we have nothing but a good time. Which brings me to, I can watch any animal, esp in the animals home and of any size...It is my home that, as also mentioned above, I would only be able to take in a small or medium sized dog, cat, or caged pet. And my home, that I live in with just my little guy, is pretty open and spacious for dogs to move around, and I have fenced in my backyard just off the back door porch for even more run around fun. And now onto my prices, I had to do additions a certian way on here...As to plus a cat if I'm also coming to care for your dog...But I can always modify and give a discount if say you have many plus one cats in your home so it doesn't keep plus one'ing a fee...Or if you have wonderfully easy small dogs, I would not keep plus one'ing for those and would find a nice set fee, and especially if my little guy could also come enjoy them, or they could come spend the time with us...It's the large ones that can be more of a handful and take a bit more doing often times, that I have to have it set that way for. And I did just recently up my prices some as I've noticed that Rover charges per night and I am not loving that, I always on my own charge per day, so I up'd my prices some to reflect that. But have noticed that I am still under many, esp when it comes to multiple pets, and so that is good. So you can always send me a msg and we can discuss any and all options. I can often work staying elsewhere into my routine, even if many miles away...Pop ins as well can be worked in more easily than not...Esp when it's on the way to work or right near work...And my work schedule often varies and can be shifted if need be...But that brings me to, work is part time, so I won't be gone hours upon hours at a time, but those hours could fall into the evening as in dinner could be an hour or 2 late an evening or 2, if that is alright. And I put a certain radius...But I have stayed in homes miles and miles away, out of state even, just ask if it's doable, it very well may be! But for pop ins and walks, I would prefer to travel within 10 miles or so from my home only. So I did just update this for a 45 miles out, but obviously I cannot be doing a pop in or daily walk so far away. I care for pets in my home or their home the same way I care for my pet in his home...With the added, well, additions that your pet may need. My home is often more foolproof safe...Such as I have an indoor fenced area around my front door...And I do sometimes bring something similar with me to others homes...I prefer to be (overly) safe than sorry.
About: Hi my name is Connie short for Confesora! I love animals because they’re always there for us, they are highly misunderstood and much smarter and deserving of this life than Most humans believe! They deserve the best care even our little "not so easy" ones! If you have a not so easy one let me know ahead of time please!! Immediately inform me if your pets cannot control their bladder or rectum thank you. I have been working and volunteering in pet care And Grooming for 20 years! I am getting back into rover after two years away because A lot of life changes like becoming a cleaning company business owner happened! Regardless of whether they have fur or scales I treat my pets, and other’s pets as family members who need just as much love and emotional care as they do physical! I am also licensed and insured! We have a few dog parks available for play days! ! As a Furbaby owner you need someone who will treat your Babies as if they are their own family and that is one of the most important things people need!

We have a fun friendly Cat Named Beau and an Old man named Ollie and a new young man named Rocky! Keeping your pets happy and satisfied and full of play time!
“Angelisa is very nice and diligent. She takes good care of my Labrador puppy. He is always very happy and when I pick him up. She handles him well and her kids seem to be very sweet with him. Will definitely use again.”
“Karma had a great day with Jacqueline and her daughter. They sent a picture and update halfway through the day which was nice as this was the first time I had left Karma with people I did not know. I texted on my way to pick her up and they had her ready to gomwhen I got there.”
“Meli took such great care of my fur baby! From the moment I was in touch with Meli, I felt safe and excited about the opportunity to have Ollie spend the day with her and her pup Nina. She was warm and assuring, and very quick to respond to messages! When I met Meli in person to drop Ollie off, I was happy to find such a friendly and kind person in real life, too! She sent me photos and updates throughout the 6 hours that Ollie was with her for “day care” (without me even needing to ask!) and I could tell he was having fun and being taken care of so well! I would absolutely recommend Meli and would love to have Ollie stay with her again if we need a sitter in Bloomington. Thanks Meli! ?”
“Lingwen was awesome! Very responsive. Ready right at drop off and pick up times. So sweet and careful with our little Princess that our puppy felt safe almost immediately after meeting her. Her place is beautiful, with plenty of space for our puppy to explore and play with others. She took great pictures and videos that kept us up to date on how our puppy was doing througout the stay. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommend!”
“Fantastic experience with Megan. Felt completely comfortable leaving Teddy in her care. Lots of communication and sweet pictures throughout the stay. Teddy was happy and relaxed when we picked him up. 100% recommend!”
About: Dogs have been my whole heart for as long as I can remember. I loved my own dog for 15 and a half wonderful years, caring for him through every stage of life until we had to say goodbye last summer. That experience gave me a deep appreciation for just how much love and attention dogs deserve at every age. Since then, I've channeled that love into caring for the dogs of friends and family, and I'm now so excited to open my door to more pups who need a warm, attentive caretaker. I'm comfortable with caring for guests from puppies to seniors, and I'm used to managing multiple dogs at once while making sure each one feels seen and loved. I care for every guest like they're part of my own family. Whether that means adventure, enrichment, or simply curling up next to me while I work, I try to tailor each stay to what makes that individual dog happiest. Your pup will be in loving hands, and I'll keep you updated with plenty of photos along the way. 🐶 I work from home and would love to have some furry coworkers around. Whoever's with me gets to hang out all day while I'm at my desk, with plenty of breaks for outdoor time and cuddles in between. ⏰ I do ask that you treat drop-off and pick-up times as scheduled appointments. I'm happy to be flexible when I can, but I do plan my day around arrivals and departures, so I appreciate being on time or getting as much notice as possible if plans change. My home is relaxed, dog-friendly, and ready for guests! I have a spacious fenced yard for outdoor time and plenty of indoor space to lounge around in. If your pup ever needs a quiet moment to decompress, I have a separate space for that too. I intentionally keep my guest list small so every dog gets plenty of individual attention. I also know how to read the room to make sure everyone feels comfortable and no one's overwhelmed. Your pup's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. 🌙 For stays longer than five nights, I do require a one-night trial stay beforehand. It gives your pup a chance to get comfortable in my home and helps ensure we're a great fit before a longer vacation.

About: I have had dogs my entire life and have always been surrounded by them, as many of my family members have dogs as well. Over the years, I have gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of different personalities and needs. I have looked after multiple family members’ pets, watched my neighbors’ dogs, and provided dog-sitting care before. I am very comfortable with feeding, walking, giving attention, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make time for pet care throughout my day. I also really miss my dog at home, so spending time with dogs here would be something I genuinely enjoy. I already go on daily walks, and caring for pets would fit naturally into my routine. Even with my classes, I would have plenty of time to give pets the attention, care, and exercise they need. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness would always be my top priorities. I am responsible, attentive, and caring, and I would work hard to create a calm, safe, and loving environment where your pet feels secure and well cared for. I will always treat every dog with patience, kindness, and the same love I would want for my own pet.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and cats. I have always been involved in pet care, as early as 9 years old by feeding my family cats and walking my dogs. I have experience with diabetic dogs, giving them their shots. I also have experience with anxious dogs, especially ones that come from troubled pasts. I am a college student currently home for the summer so I have plenty of time to devote to taking care of your pups or cats! I am experienced with dogs that tug on leashes or aren’t exactly well trained. I am good at reading dogs’ emotions and giving them what they need. I am also detail oriented and will make sure to follow any instructions left for me to the T.
“Tori has been walking our 2 dogs, Apollo & Mia, for a few weeks now. She communicates well & is very accommodating. She takes great care of our pups and I know they enjoy their weekly walks with her. Would definitely recommend Tori for any dog sitting/walking needs!”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and for the past 2.5 years, I have worked at a dog shelter, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. Through this experience, I have developed strong skills in handling, walking, feeding, cleaning, monitoring behavior, and providing enrichment for dogs with a variety of needs. I am more than comfortable working with energetic puppies, shy or nervous dogs, large dogs, and senior dogs who require special attention. My goal is to provide a safe, fun, and stress-free experience while giving dog owners peace of mind. I am currently home from college for the summer and have high availability throughout the week and the weekend. I am accustomed to maintaining feeding schedules, exercise routines, and providing consistent care throughout the day. I understand the importance of reliability and communication, and I work hard to ensure that each dog’s routine is followed as prescribed by the owner. Safety is my top priority when caring for dogs. My own dog who recently passed away, as well as my shelter experience, have taught me how to recognize body language, manage introductions, handle dogs safely on walks, and respond calmly in any situation. I am consistently able to carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and household routines. When caring for a dog in a client’s home, I treat both the home and the dog with the utmost respect and professionalism. I believe trust is earned through consistency, communication, and dependable care, and I strive to make every dog feel comfortable, secure, and loved.

“Dogs came home happy and well balanced! Clearly they had been well cared for and given the proper amount of exercise. Kexin and Carlos sent lots of pictures and videos giving me a lot of confidence and comfort in knowing that selecting them was the right choice! My dogs loved their large, fenced in backyard! My 2 dogs got along beautifully with their dog and cats. They even added some healthy supplements to my dogs’ food that they add to their dog’s food! Will be using them again soon!”
“Julie and Tiffany were absolutely amazing with our dog Luna. This was Luna’s first time staying with anyone and she was anxious. Julie sent us pictures and updates and Luna calmed down and enjoyed her stay and even made a new friend, Stella, another adorable pup staying with them. I can’t say enough about Julie and Tiffany. They are the dog whisperers and we are so grateful for the amazing care they gave our pup. Thank you!”
“Kira and Steve are terrific to work with, very easy going. They screen the pups to make sure they will play well with others and do what it takes to help the dogs feel at home. Their space is also amazing.”
“Heather was amazing with our dog! She gave her lots of love, walks, and play time, and also gave our dog her meds on schedule. We received daily updates and photos as well. Definitely recommend!”
“Recently we lost one of our two dogs. We had a trip planned for only a couple weeks later and had to board our second dog alone for the first time. Gabe was an excellent choice and probably the most knowledgeable in training that we have had so far! He was communicative, responsible, and made us feel completely confident while we were gone! Definitely will be giving him a call again for our trips.”
“We boarded our dog for the second time for over a week with Vignesh and are extremely satisfied with his care and updates. He’s also very accommodating with our dates and pick up and drop off times.”
“Bridget was fabulous. Blue had some digestive issues. We communicated with Bridget ahead of time and she was extremely supportive and helpful. She administered new food and medicine while Blue was there. She is an absolute pro and awesome to work with!”
“Bethany has been caring for our dog for the last month and we are delighted. He is well cared for and loved. It's typically only one day a week. But it's exactly what he needs. Thank you Bethany for being such a great care giver!”
“I used Rover for the first time time with Emily and she kept me updated with pictures of my Lyla multiple times a day. She made me feel so reinsured and had a great fenced in yard for the dogs to roam. She even let my Lyla sleep with her which was so sweet! Thank you so much Emily!”
“I was really impressed with Misael. We left our dog, Cindel, with him for the first time we’ve been away from her for a decent length of time. He gave us updates just about daily, including pictures. He informed us of things he noticed about her mannerisms and all her little quirks, and how she was getting along with other dogs and the household. I would definitely recommend him.”
“Amy and Ryan are wonderful and so accommodating. They're able to keep constant care of our little guy Gersh, and give us the confidence we want that he'll be okay when we need to be away. Our flight home was recently delayed and with our work schedules the following day it could've been an issue, but we thankfully didn't need to worry. They immediately let us know it wouldn't be a problem at all, and were so understandable and easy to coordinate with. We're happy to have found them, and so is Gersh! Thank you!”
“My dog stayed for a weekend with Alex. We got updates of him hanging out in the couch and playing in the yard. My dog had a potty accident at her place, but Alex cleaned up the mess and dog bed for us. She also seemed understanding of my dog’s anxiety issues.”
“Always my most trusted person to leave my Ollie with! I rarely trust people with my pup but when I leave Ollie with Paola, I have no worries! She updates frequently and Ollie always comes home happy and tired from playing!!! Thank you as always!!!”
“Would not hesitate to bring our pup to Briana, ever. She takes good care of him and sends updates along the way to put your mind at ease. Highly recommend. Thanks Briana!”
“Krista and Henry are the best! I had been looking for the right sitter for my boy Barney for months, and I finally found them in Krista and Henry! I am the epitome of a paranoid helicopter parent, and Krista & Henry were absolutely wonderful in putting my mind at ease. They allowed me several meet & greets to ensure Barney and I were 100% comfortable, which was a huge deal for me. When the time came for Barney to stay with them, I received multiple updates with photos daily, which assured me my boy was doing great, receiving unlimited love and exceptional care and having fun. I highly recommend Krista and Henry and will definitely use them again in the future!”
