Highly-rated overnight sitters - Benedict
“My dog looked like he was enjoying himself so much, I wasn’t sure how to convince him to come home🤭 His previous stay away from home was terrible, and stressful, he returned with hotspots all over his body. I knew we found a good fit Anika because she only watches one dog at a time, more his speed. We received pictures and updates daily which eased his humans minds. I cannot thank Anika enough fo her care. See you soon!”
“Nikki was very responsive and sent picyures throughout my trip. My pup even had accidents. Thats right i said accidents with an s! And she was so sweet about it. My pup came home happy and i felt at easy the entire time. One less thing to worry about. I will rebook and i recommend you check her out if you need a dog sitter!”
“Liz was wonderful with my dog over the weekend, providing attentive care and updates. I returned to a happy and well-cared-for pup. Would definitely trust her again.”
“Lina had a wonderful stay, she is a rescue from the Humane Society and Denise and her husband took extra time to make her feel safe and comfortable. I received daily updates and pictures. I will 100 % use them again and highly recommend Denise!”
“Kelly, is AWESOME. My best friend "COOKIE" first stay with a sitter, I was nervous leaving as we have been moving from place to place for nearly a month due to PCS. I mentioned that COOKIE is a picky eater. She made sure, he was feed and well taken care off while I was away. She also sent picture and brief daily updates , even when I wasn't able to reply due to work. Lastly she look after my COOKIE like it was one of her own. Gave me a piece of mind while I was on a work trip.”
“LaTasha was amazing with our puppy! We received photos and videos daily, which we needed with this being our first boarding experience away from our little baby. Our cocoa came back looking and smelling amazing! We will definitely use LaTasha for future needs! 🫶🏾”
“I’m so thankful that I found Onayda and thankful for Rover as well. Unable to take Kenzzington on my long distant trip, I felt 100% confident that he was in great hands with Onayda. I got pictures and videos and I must say that Kenzzington was living his best life. I’m looking forward to booking with Onayda again in the near future. If you haven’t booked with her yet, then what are you waiting for??? Your pets will thank you ?.”
“Lilian was very professional and courteous with me and my puppy as it was her first time away! She was also as nurturing and loving as I would have been which made me feel at ease. I loved all of the regular updates and pics. The whole petsitting process a 5 star experience for sure! Highly recommend to any pet parent!!”
“WE WERE TURNED AWAY BY SOOOO MANY SITTERS... I checked the schedule of every sitter before making contact to ensure that they were available. I made contact with at least 10 sitters and got "I'm out of town" or no response at all. The issue was my dog was asked not to return to a commercial kennel "Muddy Paws." There was no violence or aggressive behavior, just anxiety shown by barking, howling, tipping food, and water. But all of this is in Ash's bio, and finally, someone was real enough to tell me. "After reading your dogs bio, I don't feel comfortable with him." So I gave up and started to cancel a much needed family vacation. Then I got a small sign and tried Lindsay. She was the only one who asked, "What happened at Muddy Paws?". From there, we exchanged texts, and she asked if we could have a meet and greet that day. We had a wonderful meet and greet, and she took Ash for our vacation. And from there, we were thoroughly impressed. We got pictures, videos, and text messages. My wife actually got a little jealous due to how comfortable Ash looked and smiled in every picture. Plus, he found a new best friend in her dog, Remi. Now, if you are curious to know how Ash did, I highly recommend you ask Lindsay. She even went as far as to write something the other sitters could read that would educate them on Ash's behavior. And we appreciate that so much. BUT AS LONG AS LINDSAY IS A SITTER, ASH DOES NOT HAVE ANY OTHER SITTERS. THANKS YOU, Lindsay, from the entire Jones family.”
“Bianca was wonderful with our fur baby. She was proactive in keeping us informed on how Heaven was doing and sent us plenty of pictures. Heaven definitely enjoyed herself. We will definitely use her again.”
“Gio and Vanessa were great! They shared video updates everyday of Bella, and took the time to understand Bella and her needs in order to make her visit successful. I highly recommend, and will book again for next time I’m away and need someone to look after Bella!”
“This was our first visit with Stephanie and Blaze and it was great! Stephanie is quite welcoming and she has a very comfortable home, which Henry seemed to fit right in! I love it that she sent me photos, which reassured me that Henry was settling in well. We are already scheduled for 2 more visits!”
“I was very pleased with the care my fur babies received from Nick and Cici. I got updates and photos of them and I could see how comfortable they were in their home. It made me feel good to leave them and I know I will let them stay again! My babies were treated like they were a part of a new loving family environment and that warms my heart.”
“This was our second time having Tanita and Terrence care for our fur baby. It's a good feeling when you are pleased with the care and service Tanita and Terrence provide, but when our fur baby expresses excitement before they opened the door I knew he was in good hands. Will use their services again”
“Lashelle was a great person to watch over my dog. She provided me with daily updates and pictures of his visit. Through updates, I was able to view the love and care given to my dog while I was away. I will definitely seek to work with her again.”

About: Hey there! I’ve been caring for animals for over 25 years…or really, my whole life! From dogs and cats to birds, hamsters, bearded dragons, and even fish, I’ve shared my life with animals of all kinds. I currently live with four cats who have taught me even more about patience, play, and intuitive communication. I’ve also helped friends with pet care, walked dogs of all sizes, and provided loving attention to pets while their humans were away. Animals tend to gravitate toward me, and I feel deeply connected to them. I believe in meeting each animal where they are, tuning into their energy, and ensuring they feel safe, seen, and nurtured. Whether it’s a playful walk, cozy check-in visit, or overnight care, I’m committed to showing up with love, attentiveness, and a calm, grounded presence. Your pet will be treated like one of my own!
“Kendal was very prompt and made sure to give my animals plenty of attention. She also communicated with me of there were any issues. Highly recommend and will be requesting her services in the future.”
“There’s nothing like traveling and worrying the entire time! I was hesitant to use this app and I wasn’t having any luck finding a sitter…until I came across Emily! She kept me informed everyday! My fur babies were in such a better mood when I came home. They are usually boarded and that was not the best environment for them. It would take them days to resettle in at home. Thanks to Emily they were very well cared for! I will rebook for sure!!!!”
About: My name is Kelly. I am 28 Currently I am a paramedic. I have always been an animal lover. I have a 10 year old Shetland Sheepdog and 5 cats ! For about 10 years, I have walked and taken care of my neighbors dog when they needed me to for many years. I can do walks and drop ins. Please message me if you think I would be a good fit for you and your furry friend ! I work every other week. So I will have plenty of time to spend with your fur baby. I love to get them excited and tired out. I do not do this from home. I am very safe. I will make sure all doors and fences are secure, and watch when I leave.
About: I’ve lived in a multi-cat household for over 25 years and have cared for cats from a wide range of backgrounds, including shelter adoptions, strays, and cats who needed to be rehomed after losing their owners. I’m experienced with shy and senior cats, and I understand the patience and consistency they need to feel safe and comfortable. I also pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and litter box habits—because small changes can matter with cats.
“I couldn't be happier with the cat-sitting service provided by Myah over Christmas! Allison was content and well-cared for, and we appreciated the daily updates. Myah's reliability and genuine love for our cat made our holiday worry-free. Highly recommend!”
“Cynthia did an amazing job watching my cat, Rory. She always kept me in the loop and sent picture updates throughout my trip! Will definitely go to her for any pet sitting needs in the future :)! Thank you!”
About: I grew up with cats in the house and have always loved all sorts of animals! I have taken care of friends pets before while they were traveling, including feeding and playing with both cats and dogs, walking dogs and helping in the crate training process, and cleaning litter boxes. I am flexible with my time right now and looking to spend time outside during the day, or time inside with a cute kitty! I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to hang with your pets! I am able to build my schedule week by week depending on my preferences, so if you have a request, send it my way and I’ll see if I can make it work. For visits, I feel it should be your rules in your home. On a baseline, I leave a place better than I found it, I will clean up after your pet and myself before I leave! I like to know where a pet likes to spend time and a general daily routine before a visit too (if mom or dad says dinner is at 5 I won’t be so easily fooled by a begging puppy). Overall, each pet and owner is unique so my biggest priority is communication!

About: Hi! I’m Haley, a stay at home mom and lifelong animal lover who understands that pets are family not just animals. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away, so you can enjoy your time knowing they’re in caring hands. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up in a family that rescued animals, and my mom has worked in the veterinary field her entire career. Before becoming a stay-at-home mom to my three little ones, I spent years working in animal hospitals, where I gained experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. That background taught me how important patience, consistency, and attention to detail are when it comes to caring for animals. At home, we have three playful kittens and a friendly dog, so your pet will be staying with someone who truly understands their needs. We also have a large backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and get plenty of exercise. I know every pet is different, which is why I do my best to stick to their normal routine. Whether that means feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications, walks, cuddle time, or simply giving them space to relax! I’ll care for your pet the way you do at home. I believe keeping their routine as consistent as possible helps reduce stress and makes them feel comfortable. When your pet stays with me, they’ll be treated like part of the family. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, and updates while you’re away so you always know they’re happy and well cared for. I know how hard it can be to trust someone with your furry family member, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I’d be honored to care for your pet and provide them with a safe, loving home away from home. I am currently a stay at home mom to four children, I am available almost 24/7 to be able to care for your pet, and have a very flexible schedule I have a decent sized yard, it is not fenced in but your pet will never be left unsupervised outside. I am a firm believer that pets are family and will be treated as such. There is no limitations on where your pet will be allowed to go in my home. They want to jump up on the couch for some snuggles? Go right ahead. Feel more comfortable at night in my room? Come right on in. The way your pet is cared for at your home is how they will be treated here.
About: Hi I’m Lindsay! I love spending time with our extroverted dog Zoomy 🐾 and with my cousin’s two cats Windex 🐈 and Squirt 🐈⬛. Zoomy would love to have some friends come over to play.

I can do daytime hours or evenings, just let me know. I’d be happy to work with you and your schedule. We have a big yard with an invisible fence for your dog to run around. Plenty of space inside the house to play too! I will make sure to give your dog plenty of water and potty breaks and meticulously follow any instructions you leave me!

About: Hi! I am Sarah. I am a mom, business owner, and dog lover living in 7 acres in La Plata. I offer in home boarding and care in a peaceful, low stress environment where your animals can relax, explore, and feel at home. I am currently working on installing a fence, so for now I can do leash walks to keep everyone safe, or supervised play for small puppies since we are acres from the road. If you’re looking for personalized care, space, and a more relaxed environment, I’d love to care for your dog. Dogs are never left unattended for long periods, and I prioritize safety at all times. Dogs get plenty of supervised outdoor time and a comfortable, clean space inside to decompress. I care for pets in home as if they’re part of the family. I can follow each dogs routines, which includes feeding schedule, potty breaks, walks, and any special instructions that you provide.
“We needed a dog sitter for our 8 month old Coco while we had a last minute family outing. This was our first time booking a sitter and Lilian was everything we needed! She was very responsive and provided so much insight on the process. We knew Coco would be in good hands and she was! Lilian sent pic & video updates and Coco was having a great time! Thank you so much for taking care of our girl! We can't wait to use Lilian again! 🐾🩷”

“I recently adopted Daisey and wasn't sure how she would do in daycare. Lindsay did an excellent job of caring for her and helped Daisey to settle into a new environment and enjoy the experience. She regularly sent me updates and photos of Daisey which helped put my mind at ease. Lindsay provided excellent care and I will definitely use her services again.”
“This was my very first-time using Rover, and when I say I am overly pleased. Richardine is AWESOME! I was so nervous to use the service because I had just had a pup pass away, and I did not know what I was going to do going forward. I did a meet and greet with Richardine, and I knew at that moment, my pup will be with Richardine each time I will need a sitter. Very personable, reliable, and made sure I received photos throughout the day to let me know what my pup was doing. Once I picked my pup up, she was playing, and happy. I am truly overjoyed with the service that I received. Thank you so much Richardine, and I will see you very soon. Latisha M.”
“Saniyya was responsive and flexible! I was a little late picking up & she was helpful. Appreciate her help & would use again! Day care end time posted was a little off ( actually at 540p not 6p) but overall satisfied! Thank you Saniyya”
“My 13 year old Pumpkin is having a blast at Tanita and Terrence's home. I can tell Pumpkin is really enjoying being there and she'll be going back soon! Thanks for taking good care of her!”
“Corey and Monica were very friendly and took great care of Pepper. They sent photos throughout the day which I appreciated. They were accomodating and willing to work with me with some of Peppers anxiety issues. Will definitely be bringing Pepper back for future daycare :)”

I’m very mindful of the safety even of my own animals so your pet is in the best of hands. Although my yard is not fenced, I take my dog out for walks leashed and for the few times she has escaped, I’m not near any major roads for there to be any accidents or for her to be in harm’s way.

About: Hi friend! I am an animal lover through and through and, as a freelancer new to the Bay Area, I’d love to better utilize my flexibility by being a compassionate resource to those pups who need some extra love, attention, support, exercise or fresh air when you’re simply not as available as you wish you could be.

“Nikki was very responsive and sent picyures throughout my trip. My pup even had accidents. Thats right i said accidents with an s! And she was so sweet about it. My pup came home happy and i felt at easy the entire time. One less thing to worry about. I will rebook and i recommend you check her out if you need a dog sitter!”
“Liz was wonderful with my dog over the weekend, providing attentive care and updates. I returned to a happy and well-cared-for pup. Would definitely trust her again.”
“Lina had a wonderful stay, she is a rescue from the Humane Society and Denise and her husband took extra time to make her feel safe and comfortable. I received daily updates and pictures. I will 100 % use them again and highly recommend Denise!”
“Kelly, is AWESOME. My best friend "COOKIE" first stay with a sitter, I was nervous leaving as we have been moving from place to place for nearly a month due to PCS. I mentioned that COOKIE is a picky eater. She made sure, he was feed and well taken care off while I was away. She also sent picture and brief daily updates , even when I wasn't able to reply due to work. Lastly she look after my COOKIE like it was one of her own. Gave me a piece of mind while I was on a work trip.”
“I’m so thankful that I found Onayda and thankful for Rover as well. Unable to take Kenzzington on my long distant trip, I felt 100% confident that he was in great hands with Onayda. I got pictures and videos and I must say that Kenzzington was living his best life. I’m looking forward to booking with Onayda again in the near future. If you haven’t booked with her yet, then what are you waiting for??? Your pets will thank you ?.”
“Lilian was very professional and courteous with me and my puppy as it was her first time away! She was also as nurturing and loving as I would have been which made me feel at ease. I loved all of the regular updates and pics. The whole petsitting process a 5 star experience for sure! Highly recommend to any pet parent!!”
“WE WERE TURNED AWAY BY SOOOO MANY SITTERS... I checked the schedule of every sitter before making contact to ensure that they were available. I made contact with at least 10 sitters and got "I'm out of town" or no response at all. The issue was my dog was asked not to return to a commercial kennel "Muddy Paws." There was no violence or aggressive behavior, just anxiety shown by barking, howling, tipping food, and water. But all of this is in Ash's bio, and finally, someone was real enough to tell me. "After reading your dogs bio, I don't feel comfortable with him." So I gave up and started to cancel a much needed family vacation. Then I got a small sign and tried Lindsay. She was the only one who asked, "What happened at Muddy Paws?". From there, we exchanged texts, and she asked if we could have a meet and greet that day. We had a wonderful meet and greet, and she took Ash for our vacation. And from there, we were thoroughly impressed. We got pictures, videos, and text messages. My wife actually got a little jealous due to how comfortable Ash looked and smiled in every picture. Plus, he found a new best friend in her dog, Remi. Now, if you are curious to know how Ash did, I highly recommend you ask Lindsay. She even went as far as to write something the other sitters could read that would educate them on Ash's behavior. And we appreciate that so much. BUT AS LONG AS LINDSAY IS A SITTER, ASH DOES NOT HAVE ANY OTHER SITTERS. THANKS YOU, Lindsay, from the entire Jones family.”
“Bianca was wonderful with our fur baby. She was proactive in keeping us informed on how Heaven was doing and sent us plenty of pictures. Heaven definitely enjoyed herself. We will definitely use her again.”
“Gio and Vanessa were great! They shared video updates everyday of Bella, and took the time to understand Bella and her needs in order to make her visit successful. I highly recommend, and will book again for next time I’m away and need someone to look after Bella!”
“This was our first visit with Stephanie and Blaze and it was great! Stephanie is quite welcoming and she has a very comfortable home, which Henry seemed to fit right in! I love it that she sent me photos, which reassured me that Henry was settling in well. We are already scheduled for 2 more visits!”
“I was very pleased with the care my fur babies received from Nick and Cici. I got updates and photos of them and I could see how comfortable they were in their home. It made me feel good to leave them and I know I will let them stay again! My babies were treated like they were a part of a new loving family environment and that warms my heart.”
“This was our second time having Tanita and Terrence care for our fur baby. It's a good feeling when you are pleased with the care and service Tanita and Terrence provide, but when our fur baby expresses excitement before they opened the door I knew he was in good hands. Will use their services again”
“Lashelle was a great person to watch over my dog. She provided me with daily updates and pictures of his visit. Through updates, I was able to view the love and care given to my dog while I was away. I will definitely seek to work with her again.”
“Ruby had a great time! Lots of individual attention and a safely fenced big yard where she could run around and play. Ruby was happy to see me but whined at leaving her new friends when we drove away. I'll definitely be coming back!”
“Rae was awesome!!!! I’m her first booking on Rover and let me tell you she is clearly a professional. I have a 12 year old shihtzu whom at times can be a little feisty. lol Rae handled her extremely well, treated Layla as her own and sent me plenty of pics! Layla loved her so much, she tried to run back into the house as I was picking her up to go home! lol Thank you again Rae for accepting my week of request, having good prices and being an overall great person! I’ll def be utilizing you in the future again. 💜”
