“Nicole provided excellent care for our 3 month old puppy. He had a wonderful day full of playtime and snuggles. She also provided lots of pictures throughout the day which we loved!”
“Sam and her family took excellent care of my two dogs! Communication was top-notch, and I loved to see how happy and well cared for they were. They came home content and tired, which is the best review of all. It’s clear they had a great time in your beautiful spot in the forest. Thank you so much, Sam! 🤩”
“Josie loves dogs and took great care of our Pip. The family made Pip feel good about spending the weekend with them and seemed to love her, even forgiving her for getting food off the counter. 😬 we feel fortunate to have found them.”
About: I've been around animals my whole life and currently have two pet goats who we spoil like dogs. My partner and I have 30 acres of beautiful land surrounded by woods, which is a perfect haven for running, fetch, and all sorts of outdoor shenanigans. I work remotely from home with a flexible schedule. I typically work a few hours in the morning, and then am outside working on projects and playing with the animals all day. We have a large property (about 30 acres) surrounded by woods with lots of room for your dog to run and explore. We also live near some great hiking trails.
“Arrow had a wonderful time staying with Karl. We had a meet and greet which was very professional and welcoming, and Arrow got to meet Karl's (super sweet) dogs while I checked out the accommodations and shared details about Arrow's needs. Drop off and pick up or a breeze and while we were away we got plenty of pictures of our boy having fun. I recommend this sitter.”
“Christian responded quickly to our initial request & because we had a long drive he agreed to accommodate a 2 hour drop off window (we texted updates). He was friendly at drop off, happily engaged the dogs, asked good questions about their needs & sent photos as requested. At pick-up he offered details about their stay. Both dogs were happy to see us but seemed to have enjoyed their night with Christian. Would book again”
“Emily took great care of my pug Forrest. She sent many messages and pictures daily showing how he was enjoying his stay with her and her family. He enjoyed himself so much that he was reluctant to leave when I arrived to pick him up him up, literally hiding behind Emily so I wouldn’t pick him up. I will definitely use Emily again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great family home environment for their pet when away. A+, 5-stars.”
“Patti and her family took such great care of Luka while we were away. She got so much love and Luka was sad to leave when we came to pick her up. She will definitely miss the amazing yard! I know she will be very excited to go back when our family goes away again. Thank you Patti for loving our sweet girl and taking such good care of her.”
“Jie and her family were amazing dog hosts. She sent us daily updates and videos and was an incredible communicator. This was the first time we’ve left our furry children with someone and could not have been happier. We were so relaxed knowing they were in great hands and will recommend her and this service to all the pet owners we know!”
About: Allow me to love, feed, walk and play with your pet! I understand that your pet is your baby, and it can be difficult to leave your pet with an unfamiliar person. Please leave your worries behind in knowing your pet is in good hands. I grew up in a home with cats and dogs. My mother was a Lhasa Apsos breeder and an avid cat lover! We always had animals in our home and we were taught to care and respect them. One of my mother's favorite saying.....There is nothing like a warm cat and a good book. I'm currently retired so I have plenty of time to play with your fur babies! I'm willing to work around your schedule. Just let me know! I have a fenced in yard and an Shitzu named Teddy who is very friendly with all breeds. I will keep your pet stimulated throughout the day! A tired puppy is a happy puppy! 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾
“Natalya was wonderful with Charlie, our miniature schnauzer... She introduced him to a doggie door (his first) and he enjoyed playing with Natalya's two lovely dogs... I know he was well cared-for! Communicating with Natalya was easy. A great experience for us and Charlie.”
“Dorothy was great - she and her family made Bruno feel very welcome and secure and kept us updated while we were away. He has a special diet and daily medication and she was great with giving that to him. Definitely will book again.”
“Indigo had a great time during his stay! Thank you so much Sandra for taking him in while I was on my trip & thank you for your flexibility with the pickup time!”
“Luiz and his family are wonderful! Once again, Sachi had a great time and we didn't worry about a thing. As we were getting closer to Luiz' house, she got very excited and clearly knew where she was going. Thank you so much.”
“I booked sort of last minute and wasn't able to make a meet and greet happen (though Abigale kindly offered) and I felt totally comfortable dropping my Bernie off. I got plenty of updates while away and plan to use them again! Bernie was well cared for! And their home is lovely! Thank you!”
“Megan regularly fosters kittens from Dakin so I felt very comfortable leaving our two cats in her care, especially since our one cat requires a special diet and pill administration. Really appreciated the super quick communication !”

“I am so grateful that Aurore checked in on my two cats while I was away! The photos and knowing they were safe and cared for were such a relief and I will absolutely reach out to Aurore again!”
“Kiersten did such a wonderful job of caring for our four cats while we were away! She arrived on time, well prepared for her stay at our home. I was immediately at ease with her, and could see that our cats were too. She sent photo updates each day, which was a comfort to us as we traveled, and the cats looked great and very relaxed with her. Most surprising for us was that our very energetic and sometimes anxious newest cat, who arrived just a few months ago, really loved being with Kiersten, and he very soon got cozy with her! He was just beginning to relax with us but hadn't yet even begun to sit on my lap when I left. Our eldest cat also clearly loved being with her! He's very unique and emotionally complex, and doesn't always relate so easily with people. We are very grateful for her attentive care to our precious cats, and highly recommend her services. We would be happy to work with her again!”
“Natalie was great! Communicated with us throughout, sent lots of pictures, and wrote thoughtful, entertaining updates for each visit. We hope Natalie will be available next time our cats need a sitter!”
About: I’ve taken care of cats as long as I can remember, I’ve had 5 cats of my own of different ages and health issues that I’ve dealt with! I very much love working with cats and I’m able to take care of any age as well as administer medication if needed. I have also taken care of family members and friends pets when they have gone away and they have always returned happy and satisfied with the care I’ve given to their pets!
“Maggie provided excellent cat care and house sitting. I appreciated that she fit us in last minute and accommodated our schedule around some other commitments she had. I would definitely book her again!”
“Lori is absolutely amazing - left for two weeks over the holidays, and came home to my cat Finn healthy and happy as ever! She was super accomodstkng and easy to work with, and always sent me the cutest photos. Will definitely be contacting Lori again if I’m traveling any time in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of different kinds of animals since I was 12! I have two cats and two dogs of my own and have taken care of the animals of my friends and family reliably for years. I love all animals and have even taken care of chameleons, lizards, and ducks! I’m a college student home for the summer so I have a lot of availability for your animals! I can do both housesitting and drop in visits, and would be happy to spend time with your animals on weekends or weekdays! When watching animals, I am always sure to clarify all of their needs and schedules! I have experience in giving both cats and dogs medications, and would be happy to learn the specifications of your animals!
“Megan is awesome and showed such great love & care for my two large dogs that absolutely loved her! She truly went the extra mile to care for the yard & house so things were in great shape when we returned. I highly recommend Megan to anyone in need of pet care ❤️”
About: Your pets' safety and happiness is my number one priority. I have experience caring for cats of all ages and temperaments. If your cat is high energy, I'm ready to provide enrichment and playful company. If your cat is shy, I'm ready to patiently provide a calm environment where their boundaries are respected. Additionally, my cat Wallula has navigated a myriad of health complications over the years, which has meant that I have become very comfortable administering medication to cats in the form of a pill, liquid via a syringe into their mouth, or inhaler.
About: I’ve been around cats my whole life and have always had a special connection with them. I’ve cared for friends’ cats over the years and have a cat of my own who’s now 7 years old. I’ve had her since she was a tiny kitten, and she’s truly my world. She’s independent but loving — she has her favorite cozy spots around the house and loves playing with interactive toys. I believe in gentle redirection and positive reinforcement, and it’s helped her grow into a sweet, well-behaved cat. I’m comfortable with all kinds of feline personalities — from shy or nervous cats who need space, to affectionate ones who love attention. I understand their body language and always approach them with patience and respect. My goal is to make every cat feel safe, calm, and cared for while their owner is away.
“Five Stars! I had an absolutely exceptional experience with Dan as my cat sitter through Rover. From the very beginning, Dan was professional, communicative, and genuinely attentive to every detail of my cat’s routine and personality. While I was away, Dan went above and beyond to make sure my cats were not only cared for, but truly comfortable and happy. He provided consistent updates, including photos and thoughtful notes, which gave me real peace of mind. It was clear from every interaction that he has a natural connection with animals and takes his responsibilities seriously. What stood out most was Dan’s reliability and the level of care he put into even the small things—keeping everything clean, sticking closely to their feeding schedules, and spending quality time engaging with my cats so they didn’t feel lonely. I returned home to a relaxed, well-cared-for cats and a spotless space, which speaks volumes about the level of service Dan provides. I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and truly exceptional pet sitter! Thank you, Dan—I will absolutely be booking with you again!”
“Can’t say enough about how great Kendra is with our cats. Our shy girls have really come out of their shells with her. It’s really great to know our cats and our home are in good hands when we have to travel. Thanks Kendra!”
About: I’ve lived with pets for my whole life, and I currently have 1 dog and 2 cats (and 5 chickens!) at home. I have experience pet sitting for all kinds of animals (including ducks!), and all of the dogs and cats I’ve taken care of hold a special place in my heart. I took care of a cat who needed medicine squirted into her mouth each morning, as well as a dog who needed special medicine with her food. Overall, the biggest thing I bring to the table as a pet sitter is my love of all pets, and my dedication to making sure they receive the best love and care while you’re away. I am a college student, but all of my classes end in the early afternoon, and I have plenty of time in the morning to fit in pet care. I will not say yes to taking care of your pet if I don’t think I can give your pet the amount of time and care they deserve. Every pet I’ve taken care of has had slightly different needs and routines, and I always try to stick to that so not too much changes for them. I had a dog who needed a walk 3 times a day, and was super cuddly during the day, so I spent a lot of time cuddly and playing with her. I’ve also had cats who were very shy and nervous, so I made sure to give them space but also room for love if they wanted it. There’s no one way to care for pets that works universally, but I always make sure to feed/walk/play with them and give them the love and attention they need.
“Sky provided drop ins for our cat Tilly while we were away. She provided great pictures and updates using Rover cards and made sure our attention-loving kitty was happy, played with, loved and fed! Sky did a wonderful job and Tilly was definitely happier with Sky being around ? Thank you!!”

“Samantha and Brian has a large backyard for my dog to roam and they took him on a nice hike in the woods. My dog had so much fun with them and their young kids. I would choose them again for a eventful daycare that my swiss shepherd definitely needs!”
“After flunking out of another doggy daycare in the first ten minutes, my little guy had a great experience with John and the other dogs today. In addition to being a good caretaker, John is a great dog photographer!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have spent many years helping friends and family take care of their pets. It’s something that brings me a lot of joy. Over the years, I’ve looked after all kinds of pets — from energetic pit bulls and bulldogs to small dogs like Shih Tzus and even cats. Sometimes I’ve stayed in people’s homes for a week or two, and other times I’ve just stopped by for walks or check-ins. I’ve also welcomed pets into my own home when friends needed someone they could trust. I have a calm, friendly personality and get along well with animals, even if we’re meeting for the first time. I’m always careful to notice when a pet might be nervous or needs some space, and I do my best to make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. My schedule is very flexible since I work a per diem job and can choose when to take shifts. This gives me plenty of time for pet sitting, walks, or overnight stays. I’m usually available on short notice, too. The only thing I plan ahead for is care for my own cat while I’m away, but that’s easy for me to arrange — so it won’t affect my availability or reliability. When I’m caring for pets in their own home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible — feeding, walks, playtime, and cuddles just the way they’re used to. I make sure they feel safe and cared for while their family is away. If a pet stays in my home, I treat them like one of my own. I create a calm, cozy environment with plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I also make sure to follow any specific instructions from the owner so each pet’s needs are met. I’m gentle, patient, and understanding of different personalities — whether a pet is shy and needs space or energetic and ready to play.

“I feel so lucky to have found Sofie and Teryn! They took such great care of my two dogs for the whole day. I was thrilled to get pictures right away and throughout the day while I was gone. I hope to use their services many times to come. Javi and Rocky were happy and very well-cared for at the beautiful home. Thank you!”
About: I am a caring, loving, responsible person. I am 25 years old and I've been caring for animals since i was a little girl. I love bringing dogs to local dog parks and on hikes. i have years of experience with reptiles, small animals, fish, dogs and cats. i make sure after each and every visit pets will come home and want to snuggle up with their loving owners. I am capable at calming pets when stressed or energetic. I am always clean, well-organized and i always put pets first. When pets are in my care, they are always treated with love and have the best care. I treat them like family because they are family. If you want a professional loving pet sitter contact me now. I am available throughout the week. I am basically up everyday before 9 am so i can have time to do things around my home and have time for your pets. In my home I go on walks all the time, or trails, or even dog parks. I always give the fur babies love and attention. At your place its whatever you need me to do, but I do play with the pups and kitties when they have toys.
About: Our family dog just moved out with my daughter, so my grandpuppy 😂. Thankfully he comes to stay regularly for extended visits! Most of my photos are of him, truly spoiled & loved. I’ve cared for animals most of my life. I’m available for walking, boarding, or checking in daily while you’re at work to feed or let out. Flexible availability, reliable and kind. I have very flexible availability for boarding, house sitting and checking in and walking. I only work 15 hours a week, so I’m home most of the time! Let me know your needs and I’m sure we can work something out that’s best for your pets needs. I have a smoke free, very tidy home. I live in a townhouse that is surrounded by woods and has close proximity to walking trails. You can provide a crate if needed for boarding. I will welcome gentle, people-friendly dogs, who are house & potty trained only. No overly dirty or muddy dogs please! Thanks for your understanding.
“We had a last minute booking and Gabby was so accommodating. She updated us with photos and I think Honey had the best day with her. Our plans ran late and again she accommodated with no problems. Highly recommend.”
“Amanda's home was clean, welcoming and well set up for pet care. Amanda's pricing was fair and honest and she was amazing with communication throughout the day. It was obvious that she loves animals and my dog agrees as she was excited and happy on the days that she was in Amanda's care. I highly recommend her!”
About: I took care of dogs growing up, and now dogs are part of my family. My children have also grown up with dogs, helping with training, feeding, brushing, bathing, and playing with our dog. I am a middle school teacher who is home with my family during the summer. My 10 year old son and I are available to welcome your dog into our family life during the summer weeks and on weekends during the school year. We have a large yard with a stream and conservation land behind our house. We enjoy walks in the woods, running around and playing catch in the yard with dogs who stay with us. Inside dogs are allowed on the couch. We are home all day during the summer. We are excited to meet your dog and welcome them into our family life.
“Giannina came through at the last minute to watch my dog for the day. I prefer when sitters send photos and videos because it helps me feel reassured that he is content. She is busy with her children so I didn’t receive any. Anyway, I’m happy he was taken care of.”
“Thank you Forough and Amir! We were nervous at first how Russell would do and how he would get along with other dogs, so we were so relieved to hear that he fit right in! We would definitely feel comfortable leaving him with Forough and Amir again and look forward to scheduling another visit!”
About: I love dogs. I have a rescue her name is Snickers and shes 7 months old. I've had dogs all my life. How anyone can hurt man's best friend is beyond me. She is like my child and makes me smile, keeps me company and I dont know what I would do without her. I love her with all my heart and wouldnt trade her for the world. I would treat anyone's dog like I would my own. They are all special in their own way. I would be honored to take care of your dog, I look forward to meeting you very soon. Thank you, Robin K I work full time at home and I'm able to walk my dog and take her out anytime! I'm available all day. My Snickers would love a play mate. I dont have crate but if yours needs one you'll have to bring it. I'm very diligent in taking my pup out all day long.
“Thank you so much for all of the wonderful pictures and the videos of Miss Tulips day with you. I hope she was a good girl for you but thank you so much for the exceptional care and love you gave her. We will most definitely have you watched her again for us. Thank you ☺️”

“Jaxson was wonderful to work with! He was easy to communicate with and responded quickly. He has a calm, gentle energy, and Ajax felt comfortable with him right away. I appreciated how naturally he connected with my dog!”
About: Ive been caring for pets for many years. I had a dog walking business over a decade ago. We taken care of our own and others elderly dogs. We like taking dogs on long off leash walks in groups if possible. Dogs are always welcome to cuddle up on the furniture. Im a stay at home-mom, homeschooling. We go to play groups and trips but we can plan our day around dog walks. We take the dogs out first thing in the morning on leash as our yard isnt fenced. We are happy to come feed kitties and water plants. We love taking dogs out on walks and caring for them in our home. We love going on long walks mid day out in nature
“Kiersten was amazing with my anxious dog! She was patient with him and did a great job making him comfortable. She paid super close attention to his preferences and behaviors, which I really appreciated. She was super reliable as well.”
“Aurore was excellent showed on time was so friendly to oir pooch treated her like a queen gave her plenty of yard time an made sure she was xomfortable before she left . She is gonna be our dog watcher for the future .”
About: I've grown up with animals my entire life and am very comfortable around them. I enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they get the attention they need! As my mom and sister own their own horses, I have been taking care of my family's dog and two cats while they are away and at shows. I am very careful about the safety of my family's pets, we have a fenced in yard for our dog, and I am very thorough when taking care of our chickens when closing them up for the night to protect them from predators.

“We are so grateful to Lori, who hopped in the car and came a long way to help us out at the very last minute. She took our high energy 3-year-old lab on a fun hiking adventure and took so many cute photos. We will definitely use Lori again!”
“Dan is the dog whisperer we were hoping for!! He was prompt and very flexible! He was so great with pepper and we’re thrilled to have found such a sweet new friend for her!! Thanks Dan!!”
“Kendra was incredible! She was so easy to communicate with and provided excellent care for our two dogs. She also sent regular updates and photos. It is clear that she truly cares for animals and is very knowledgeable. We would absolutely hire her again.”
About: Hi, I am a retired dog groomer of over 35 years. Now I am a stay at home dog mom. I am pet CPR and first aid certified as well. I am up early and to bed late so I can make sure your pups can stay on their normal schedule and stay as comfortable as possible. I very strongly feel that your pet and home has your rules and find it very important to follow any instructions given to me. That means there are rules that are in place & I stick to them.
About: With 25+ years of pet care experience, including 15 years as a vet tech, I treat each animal as I would my own. I enjoy getting to know clients and their companion animals. I feel it is important for pets to have someone familiar taking care of them while their people are away. For this reason, I will usually ask to set up a meet and greet prior to the first booking. In addition to dogs and cats, I have experience with small mammals (e.g. gerbils, guinea pigs, rabbits), exotics (e.g. lizards, turtles, birds), and farm animals (e.g. chickens, horses, cows, sheep, goats). Whether exercising exuberant young animals, entertaining indoor cats, or just keeping them company so they don't miss you [as much], I'm there to be another one of their people! I look forward to meeting your animal companion(s) and learning more about their routine and requirements to keep them happy & healthy while you are away. You can expect to receive updates including photos while they are in my care. Drop-in visits and house sitting generally available 7 days (between 8AM-8PM) and 7 nights/week. I offer dog walking but not are occurring service on week end days, though available some weekends. My own yard is unfenced; I offer leashed walks and potty breaks in yard and/or on nearby trails. Due to respect for my 3 cats, I do not offer doggy day care or sitting in my home across the board. I have made exceptions for cat-friendly and low-key critters in the past. Find it generally works best to care for pets in the comfort of their own home, where I keep their regular routine going to the best of my ability.

“Smaller dog was being defensive first time meeting her (Cozy is cautious around new people). Sky was extremely patient with her and did a great job working with her. By the end of the walk, Cozy was bringing her toys to play with. Great job overall.”
About: I have lots of experience house/pet sitting and can provide multiple references. I love all animals and will dedicate time to making them feel comfortable with me. I am currently unemployed - looking to fill tons of time with pet care! If you need someone for a longer job or last minute help, let me know! I spend lots of time with the pets I watch and I am happy to provide any specific needs: dietary, scheduling, playtime quirks! Very committed to keeping your pup or cat happy.

About: I’ve had pets since I was about 4 years old, and am experienced with caring for cats and dogs. Any needs they have, I will take care of them all - from simple company when you're at work, to walks, giving meds and overnight stays! I have experience training puppies too, from potty training to the classic "stay", "sit", "come", "leave" etc. commands. I have a large dog myself so size of your pet is no issue. Anything you're unsure about, shoot me a message! I work full time at a school but am free weekdays after 2pm until around 10pm. On weekends I am free from Friday afternoon until Monday morning so I can do overnight stays too if needed. Depending on the care required, I will feed pets, give them meds, take them outside, play games/fetch/etc., brush them, empty litter boxes and so on. I have had several cats and dogs of my own and cared for many more, so I am comfortable with adjusting to their different personality types.

“Nicole provided excellent care for our 3 month old puppy. He had a wonderful day full of playtime and snuggles. She also provided lots of pictures throughout the day which we loved!”
“Sam and her family took excellent care of my two dogs! Communication was top-notch, and I loved to see how happy and well cared for they were. They came home content and tired, which is the best review of all. It’s clear they had a great time in your beautiful spot in the forest. Thank you so much, Sam! 🤩”
“Josie loves dogs and took great care of our Pip. The family made Pip feel good about spending the weekend with them and seemed to love her, even forgiving her for getting food off the counter. 😬 we feel fortunate to have found them.”
About: I've been around animals my whole life and currently have two pet goats who we spoil like dogs. My partner and I have 30 acres of beautiful land surrounded by woods, which is a perfect haven for running, fetch, and all sorts of outdoor shenanigans. I work remotely from home with a flexible schedule. I typically work a few hours in the morning, and then am outside working on projects and playing with the animals all day. We have a large property (about 30 acres) surrounded by woods with lots of room for your dog to run and explore. We also live near some great hiking trails.
“Arrow had a wonderful time staying with Karl. We had a meet and greet which was very professional and welcoming, and Arrow got to meet Karl's (super sweet) dogs while I checked out the accommodations and shared details about Arrow's needs. Drop off and pick up or a breeze and while we were away we got plenty of pictures of our boy having fun. I recommend this sitter.”
“Christian responded quickly to our initial request & because we had a long drive he agreed to accommodate a 2 hour drop off window (we texted updates). He was friendly at drop off, happily engaged the dogs, asked good questions about their needs & sent photos as requested. At pick-up he offered details about their stay. Both dogs were happy to see us but seemed to have enjoyed their night with Christian. Would book again”
“Emily took great care of my pug Forrest. She sent many messages and pictures daily showing how he was enjoying his stay with her and her family. He enjoyed himself so much that he was reluctant to leave when I arrived to pick him up him up, literally hiding behind Emily so I wouldn’t pick him up. I will definitely use Emily again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great family home environment for their pet when away. A+, 5-stars.”
“Patti and her family took such great care of Luka while we were away. She got so much love and Luka was sad to leave when we came to pick her up. She will definitely miss the amazing yard! I know she will be very excited to go back when our family goes away again. Thank you Patti for loving our sweet girl and taking such good care of her.”
“Dorothy was great - she and her family made Bruno feel very welcome and secure and kept us updated while we were away. He has a special diet and daily medication and she was great with giving that to him. Definitely will book again.”
“Indigo had a great time during his stay! Thank you so much Sandra for taking him in while I was on my trip & thank you for your flexibility with the pickup time!”
“Luiz and his family are wonderful! Once again, Sachi had a great time and we didn't worry about a thing. As we were getting closer to Luiz' house, she got very excited and clearly knew where she was going. Thank you so much.”
“I booked sort of last minute and wasn't able to make a meet and greet happen (though Abigale kindly offered) and I felt totally comfortable dropping my Bernie off. I got plenty of updates while away and plan to use them again! Bernie was well cared for! And their home is lovely! Thank you!”
“Megan regularly fosters kittens from Dakin so I felt very comfortable leaving our two cats in her care, especially since our one cat requires a special diet and pill administration. Really appreciated the super quick communication !”
“Forough and Amir were awesome! Baloo got a playmate in Ruby and he lioked so happy. We got daily updates and that helped know he is doing fine. We will definitely work with Forough and Amir again! Definitely recommend!”
“I can’t stop saying how wonderful Rachel is. She has cared for Louis several times and each time I’m at ease because I know he’s in good hands. Thank you Rachel so much!”
“Holly and her family were wonderfully accommodating and helpful with our pet Sylvie. They have a wealth of experience looking after dogs, and really appreciate their individual personalities and needs.Communication was great and I would hve them watch Sylvie again, anytime.”
