“Heather, My experience with you was nothing short of amazing for both my dog, Sawyer, and myself. Even before booking, you showed a genuine interest in learning all about Sawyer. It was clear that you not only love dogs but truly wanted to make him feel welcome in your home. You provided a dog-friendly environment and kept me well-informed with regular updates and photos through the Rover app. Thank you for taking such great care of him. He’s really looking forward to his next visit with you. BTW, he enjoyed the rest of his Birthday Cupcake! Warm regards, Brian”
“Kyla is my go-to pet sitter! She and her family treat my dog as part of their family. My dog is always safe & happy when I go to pick her up and is always excited to go back to visit with Kyla. Thank you!!!”
“Our dogs had the best weekend with Kexin and Carlos (and their new furry friends)! Everything was super easy and smooth. They kept us updated with great pictures and videos and even gave us sweet mementos of their stay. We will absolutely book again and highly recommend them!! Thank you both so much for your thoughtfulness and care with Franklin and Riley!”
“Julie and Tiff to great care of my dogs! They had them for 4 days and sent me multiple updates each day. Communication was great and I love the pics they sent me. When I picked them up I could tell they were happy and well cared for. Would definitely use them again and highly recommend!”

“Meli is a fantastic sitter! She took awesome care of my pup, Chunk. I really enjoyed the pictures that she sent me throughout the day. It was a comfort knowing that he was in good hands. You can tell that she is very passionate about animals!”
“Our dogs had the best time with Melissa! They were well taken care of and made a few new friends. Melissa was extremely accommodating to our requests for drop off and pickup changes and even offered to meet us closer when our flight got delayed. We would absolutely rebook with Melissa and highly recommend her!!”
“Bethany took care of my sick, senior dog this past weekend. She couldn’t have been kinder or more understanding. She was so patient, and I couldn’t be more grateful that I found her. Abby is looking forward to her next stay with Bethany, hopefully in slightly better health!”
About: Hi, I’m Marilyn! I have been caring for animals since I was 12 years old, starting with my neighbors' cats and expanding to dogs as I gained experience. Medication & Special Care Experience With my nursing training and years of pet ownership, I am very comfortable managing special health needs. I am experienced in administering: Oral Medications (I’m a pro at using pill pockets, cheese, or whatever trick your pet prefers!) Topical Treatments Ear Drops Meet My Pack: We are a pet-loving household! When you book with me, your pet will be sharing space with my sweet fur-family. My French Bulldog: He is an 8-year-old Frenchie who is incredibly laid-back and absolutely wonderful with kids and other animals. My Two Cats: Nemo and Milo. They are energetic, sweet kittens (born in October and November 2025) who are well-adjusted to a busy, animal-friendly home. Home Environment & Boarding Accommodations I want your pet to feel as safe and comfortable as they do in their own home. My house is fully equipped for secure, happy stays: Fenced-In Yard: Perfect for safe, supervised playtime and quick potty breaks. Finished Basement with Baby Gates: I have a spacious, finished basement that is perfect for giving pets their own dedicated zone. If your pet isn't fully comfortable around cats, I can easily keep them separated using baby gates. Crate-Friendly: If your dog prefers to sleep in a crate or is crated for safety when unsupervised, I am happy to utilize a crate according to your exact preferences. Whether your pet needs active playtime in the yard, quiet companionship while I study, or precise medication schedules, I am here to treat them like a member of my own family. I can't wait to meet your pup or kitty! As a stay-at-home mom and part-time nursing student, nurturing and safety are second nature to me. My nursing classes only take up 2 days of my week, leaving me with wide-open availability to care for your pet the rest of the time. Because I am home so much, I can cater to all of their needs—from high-energy play sessions to specialized care routines. You can enjoy your time away with peace of mind, knowing your pet is in attentive, loving hands! My goal is to provide a "home away from home" that mirrors the safety and structure they have at your house. Home & Environment: Secure Yard: Large, fenced-in area for supervised outdoor time. Hydration: Constant access to filtered, fresh water. Socialization: My two young sons, our friendly 8-year-old Frenchie, and two cats make for a social environment, but we can easily accommodate dogs who need their own space. Crate Ready: I can utilize your pup’s crate for sleeping or breaks to maintain their existing training and comfort. My Promise: I am highly detail-oriented and will follow your specific instructions regarding feeding, exercise, and behavior to the letter. Your pet’s safety and your trust are my primary concerns.
“The Whitney family welcomed Koyuki with open hearts and treated her like a member of their own family.

I had to make a trip out of town and Julie's expertise showed brilliantly. She was like a second mom to my precious pup and fulfilled my every hope and dream. A blessing indeed. Who can put a price on peace of mind?”

I’m sure Thunder is looking forward to the next time he gets to be taken care of by you 😻”

“We used to find a neighborhood youth to take care of our outdoor cat when we went away. Our cat is now older and needs transdermal medication applied to his ears twice a day - so 14 visits. It was time to find a reliable adult. Through Rover we connected with Jill who lives nearby and has her own senior cat. We could not be more satisfied with the care she provided. The daily notification of visits with photos were much appreciated - although they did make me miss my pet more. Thank you Jill!”

“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!”
“Winston usually barks at new people he meets, but barely barked when he first met Misael and then was obviously very comfortable with him quickly. I received several photos and updates on what they were doing and Winston was exhausted and happy when we picked him up. Planning on booking another stay in the future!”
“This is the first time I have tried daycare since getting my dog. My dog literally have never been to a stranger's house alone before, so I was a bit worried. Dwi is very patient, caring and professional. It gave me a lot confidence.It’s a fantastic experience with her. I highly recommend Dwi.”
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)
“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: 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!”
“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.”
“Bethany was kind, considerate and understood my reluctance after a bad experience with someone who had excellent reviews. Amber did wonderful and came home relaxed and settled. It’s hard to find people to trust. I trust Bethany.”
“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!”
“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: I have had cats and dogs for over 6 years (with many more years of hamster experience) and my husband was raised with many pets since he was 3 years old (cats, dogs, chicken and even birds). We like being surrounded by fur babies! We have three kitties and one Golden Doodle that is eager to have fun with your dog (he is very gentle despite his large size). Both my husband and I work remotely so at least one of us will be at the house at all times. We will be able to take care of your pet’s needs! We have a fenced yard (with night lights!) with ample space for dogs to run and do their business. We have a fully-furnished basement where guests doggies can spend as much private time as they want, sleep on the bean bag, or look at the window to the outside! We have crates that are large and medium in case they are needed.
“I dropped off my puppy at Jacqueline’s apartment at 7 AM. She took great care of her, walking her and sending me updates via pictures (though she didn’t have to)! Thank you so much, Jacqueline!”
“Christopher, Ali, their kids, and their pups were great. They kept me updated throughout the day. They shared videos, photos, and updates throughout my puppy’s stay. I was super nervous but they made the experience great.”
“Lydia is great and very responsive!! Whiskey had a good time with Lydia and had lots of fun with her dog Izzy. He’s surely been in great hands and would definitely ask Lydia to watch Whiskey again and recommend her to others!!”
About: I grew up around dogs and cats ,and currently have four of my own! For the past three years, I have been a primary dog sitter for multiple families with animals, ranging in age and needs. Sometimes it’s best to leave our senior friends at home not to worry I have plenty of experience with a variety of medicines and special needs! Don’t forget your favorite, furry feline. I love cats for their sass and attitude! I have completed many beginner, obedience courses, and can help you and your family train a well mannered walker! I am currently enrolled in virtual school with extremely flexible hours and location! While I am home the majority of the day, there are times when I leave for athletics. I walk all animals on leash at all times unless in a fenced area such as a fenced backyard or dog park. I always make sure to bring water on a hot day!
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.
“Maeve took excellent care of our puppy, Barnaby. It was his first time with a sitter, and first time meeting another dog, and Maeve made it so easy. She communicated with me promptly, sent photos, and Barnaby loved being with her. 100% recommend.”

“Sydney took great care of my dog Tessie when she was unable to go to daycare for several months and needed drop in walks instead. She was always reliable, on time, and communicative and I would strongly recommend her to any other dog parent!”
About: Animal wellbeing has been a passion of mine since a young age. I started pet sitting and dog walking (individual and pack walks) in 2017. For me, it's easy to treat other people's pets like my own! I use Rover for my own pets, so I know firsthand how crucial excellent and reliable pet care is for our fury family members. I’m available for walks and drop ins 7 days a week and boarding from Friday evenings through Sunday nights. Feel free to reach out with specific dates/times! I love visiting pets in their home because so many are comfier staying in their own space while they wait for their humans to return. I know firsthand how important a predictable routine is for our pets.
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.
“Cassandra is great! She is very reliable and has built a fantastic relationship with Maizy in a short amount of time (just a few walks). Maizy excitedly awaits her arrival every morning and goes nuts when she sees Cassandra's vehicle pull up.”
“Jennifer was great! Sent tons of photos and even left us flowers! She took our 5 months old puppy out and then spent some time with him in our home before leaving. Max was a very happy boy when we came home from work!”
“Kiley did a fantastic job with both of our dogs, even on her first visit. She arrived on time and quickly bonded with them. They had a long, enjoyable walk and returned home happy and well-exercised. When they encountered a neighbor's dog, Kiley wisely picked up our little one to prevent any potential issues. We highly recommend her!”

About: I've grown up around dogs and cats my whole life. I have cared for pets while friends/family were away and enjoy doing so. I love spending time with animals. At the moment I am part time and have my daughter. My schedule is very open. Even on my work days I am free the first half of the day. However you want them taken care of is how I will do so. Always with love and kindness. I see my pets as my family.
About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 15, when I became responsible for my first dog. At 20, I started offering dog boarding in my home in Brazil, hosting over 10 dogs with love and dedication. Currently, I live in the United States in a small apartment with my husband, where pets are not allowed. For this reason, I provide pet care exclusively at the client’s home. I discovered Rover as a way to reconnect with the joy of being around dogs and cats, whether for a weekend or an entire month. This experience has been amazing! My husband and I care for the pets together, ensuring they receive twice the love, attention, and playtime. I work flexible hours so I definitely can stay long hours in home and provide a lot of attention for dogs and cats. I love walk and play before I need to leave them alone for a few hours. I do not host at home. We follow all the rules of the clients' homes and the animals' routines. We try our best to exercise the dogs by walking or spending time in the yard.
About: I have been a true pet lover my entire life. Now I raise two daughters who feel the same way. There has never been an animal we did not love. I have been the one all of my friends and family always rely on to help walk, feed, bathe, and take care of their pets. I have a lot of energy so love being active and going on walks and hikes and running around with a dog. I am happy to have an animal cuddled onto my lap and do not even mind being licked all over my face! I treat every pet as if it was my own. I trained two dogs from 8 weeks old, on so understand what it takes. I have had a cats my entire life and I love kitties as well! I am comfortable with big and small animals. My children are the biggest animal lovers I know and both want to be vets when they grow up. We would treat your pet like it was our own with more love than you can imagine! My girls and I are around most of the summer, as I work in a school. We are very active so we would love to be out and about walking and taking care of your dog or taking care of your cats! If I were to come to your home and take care of your pet or walk your dog, I would be very comfortable letting myself in and approaching any time of animal. I would give them all the love in the world an any care or exercise they need!

“Heather, My experience with you was nothing short of amazing for both my dog, Sawyer, and myself. Even before booking, you showed a genuine interest in learning all about Sawyer. It was clear that you not only love dogs but truly wanted to make him feel welcome in your home. You provided a dog-friendly environment and kept me well-informed with regular updates and photos through the Rover app. Thank you for taking such great care of him. He’s really looking forward to his next visit with you. BTW, he enjoyed the rest of his Birthday Cupcake! Warm regards, Brian”

Thank you both so much for your thoughtfulness and care with Franklin and Riley!”
“Julie and Tiff to great care of my dogs! They had them for 4 days and sent me multiple updates each day. Communication was great and I love the pics they sent me. When I picked them up I could tell they were happy and well cared for. Would definitely use them again and highly recommend!”

We would absolutely rebook with Melissa and highly recommend her!!”
“Bethany took care of my sick, senior dog this past weekend. She couldn’t have been kinder or more understanding. She was so patient, and I couldn’t be more grateful that I found her. Abby is looking forward to her next stay with Bethany, hopefully in slightly better health!”

“Julie just watched my shihpoo Jasmine for the first visit. Jasmine and I recently relocated from Virginia to Massachusetts and she is experiencing severe separation anxiety. I had to make a trip out of town and Julie's expertise showed brilliantly. She was like a second mom to my precious pup and fulfilled my every hope and dream. A blessing indeed. Who can put a price on peace of mind?”
“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!”
“Briana took extra special care of our puppy while we were away. We were so impressed by her communication, daily photos and updates, and how easy it was to drop our pup off and pick him up. He clearly had a wonderful time with all of the other dogs that were there and was exhausted when he got home! Highly recommend!”

Here is why; amazing communication from start to finish, meticulous home, exceptional understanding of dogs and their needs, kind and loving children, listened and respected to our care instructions, went above and beyond with our pup Riley's needs......THANK YOU Sarah we will be back!”
“We had our first playdate with Tracee this week and it went very well! Tracee has a warm and welcoming home and made our dog very comfortable and happy during his stay. I also got multiple pictures of him playing and relaxing, which I appreciated. We have an overnight stay booked with Tracee and are looking forward to it! Thank you!!”
“Gabriel is a wonderful guy, it is obvious how caring he is with the dogs. The videos were wonderful seeing our furry family member while away. I will definitely use Gabriel for my next need of Doggy Care”
“Vignesh and his family is a pro in pet care. Our dog Kulfi enjoyed a lot and I am sure he felt like home. Vignesh took care of Kulfi like his own pet. Excellent service and we will do business again in future.”
“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!”
“Penny had such a wonderful time with Denise! We were so grateful to know she was comfortable while we were away. Denise was very responsive and kept us updated on how Penny was doing. She’s excited to hopefully see Denise again soon!!”
