“Our other dog passed very recently and has been with Milo for life so leaving him was especially difficult. We typically board and this is our first time using rover. Barbara reassured us and sent photos/updates throughout our time traveling. Response time and communication was top tier. I could tell he felt comfortable and safe in her home and was happy as can be despite the circumstances. I am so happy we opted not to board. 10/10 recommend and would happily work with barb again.”
“Candace is absolutely wonderful! We live in FL, but we're originally from Delaware, and travel up there often. Candace is our go-to sitter. She has a wonderful personality, and she obviously loves our Boston as much as we do.”
“Geosselyn is friendly and very kind. She gave me frequent updates with photos/video to let me know how my dog was adjusting at her home. My small Maltese truly received excellent, personalized care. I highly recommend Geosselyn and will place my dog in her care again!”
“Sharon was wonderful with our dogs! She watched my two dogs and my sisters' two dogs for a weeklong vacation. Our pups are older and take oral medications as well as needing to go out frequently. Sharon handled their issues in stride, and even got my sister's timid anxious dog to warm up. They loved running around in the fenced back yard and snuggling up in the dog room with lots of spaces to take a break. Sharon sent pictures and updates throughout the trip. Would definitely work with Sharon again!”
“Karen kept my 2 English Bulldogs and a 10 y/o Boston Terrier for a long weekend and they came home healthy and happy. Her attention to detail (food, wrinkle cream and brachycephalic considerations for heat exposure) along with the ease of drop off and pickup will make her a top choice for future boarding.”
“Lindsey did a fantastic job caring for our 6 month old pup. She communicated a minimum of 2x per day and always provided pictures with each communication. We will definitely be using Lindsey again in the future.”
“Absolutely fantastic! They took great care of Dofus. Alexandra texted me updates and pictures. I was able to enjoy my time without worrying about him. Thank you. Highly recommend!”
“Jen was wonderful with our 3year old dog Scooter!! She treated him as if he were her own!! We were extremely happy with the entire experience especially since this was the first time using rover.com. We will definitely be seeing Jen in the future - thanks so much!!”
“Laura was a fantastic dog sitter! She was flexible with scheduling pick up/drop off, sent an update with a photo, and our pup seemed to have a great time with her. We will definitely use her services again!”
“Yvonne is so very sweet with our puppy. She made me feel very comfortable throughout our time away and sent many updates with pictures. It was wonderful to share with my kiddos throughout our vacation. The updates and photos gave us all great peace of mind that our girl was being well taken care of.”
“Jill and Thomas were great to work with! I knew after I met them that they would be a perfect choice for Charlie's stay! They were so kind, friendly, and flexible with our schedule. Charlie came home a happy pup! I would absolutely use them again!”
About: Ive had cats and dogs since a very young age I currently have 4 dogs and three cats. I have many years of experience and love them all! I am currently a student at University of Delaware and I thought maybe this job would work for my class schedule. I have a lot of free time outside of class. I have 3 cats, a boarder collie, australian shepherd, and a west highland terrier. They are all very good animals most of my animals live at home except for one of my cats that lives with me at school, but I’ve taken care of all these animals from almost all my life.
“Rita was great! Our first time using Rover and we were nervous since our dog can be a bit needy. Rita would send pictures and updates which put us at ease. Otis looked to have a great time! We will definitely be using Rita again.”
“This was my first time boarding my 6-month puppy, but Claudia eased all my worries. I got tons of pictures and updates that gave me peace of mind. I could tell Stella had a great time. If you’re unsure about boarding your pet for the first time, you can trust Claudia!”
“We loved Jacob and Megan! Our dog Coco loved playing with their dog! We got updated messages and pictures each day, and Coco was very happy when we picked her up! We will totally be using Jacob and Megan for our pet sitting needs again!”

“Great experience with Jessica. Close, convenient, received good feedback over 8 days, and an early meet and greet was scheduled to meet her dog which by the way he was a perfect companion dog . Will use Jessica again! I recommend her .”
“Pamela was wonderful with our lab. Her property is safe & spacious for pets to run around and play. Pamela’s communication is excellent providing many pictures showing our dog having fun & being well cared for. I would definitely book with her again and recommend her services.”

“Marlee continues to impress us more and more each time she watches our cats. She goes above and beyond with her service. She is diligent and detailed in her daily notes and sends several pictures each time she visits letting me see how my boys are. We have used Marlee several times and will do so in the future.”
“Dylan is so awesome. He’s so good with our doggo learning what he likes and catering to his needs. Great communication and goes out of his way to make your pet happy and well cared for.”
“Marian was fantastic with my cat! He’s usually pretty shy and doesn’t like to play with the sitters, but that was not the case here. It looks like he warmed up quickly. Marian took great update photos, followed all instructions to the letter, and was very punctual. Overall, she did a great job! We will definitely be reaching out to her again for future cat sitting needs.”
“Ashley was amazing with our two dogs! They can be very particular with meeting new people but they loved Ashley and she was so good with them. She followed all the instructions we left for her and was so communicative during her sitting. We would absolutely love to have Ashley look after our dogs again!”
“Justin and Stephanie were very accommodating and flexible. They sent at least one picture or video each day. They made sure my kitties were comfortable and well taken care of. They also were kind enough to get the cats a cardboard house to play in! I will definitely rebook with them in the future, and I recommend for anyone else to book with them!”
About: I’ve taken care of cats of different ages and needs since I was 10. That coupled with my experience working in a shelter setting has equipped me with the knowledge to meet the needs of many different types of cats.
“Christine took wonderful care of my 3 cats and she kept me informed about their daily activities. These were drop-in visits to my home for 16 days while I was on vacation. Would definitely use her again.”
“I highly recommend Jenni L. She and her partner Matt work together, and for this visit, Matt stayed with our beloved cat for several days. I cannot say enough about how reassuring it was to hear from him and see the pictures and videos that he sent of our cat and of the two of them together. Clearly, she loved him and felt very comfortable with him. We will definitely hire them again!”
“Julia was absolutely amazing! She was right on time, very flexible, super sweet, and treated my puppy, Fern, like her own! She and Fern became fast friends, and Fern was very sad to see Julia go. I’ll be booking with Julia again, no question about that!”
“Faith was an exceptional dog sitter who exceeded all expectations. She was punctual every day, ensuring that our pups received consistent care and attention. Faith dedicated 30 minutes each day to sit with the dogs while they did their business, showing her commitment to their well-being. Additionally, she captured lots of great pictures of the pups, which was a delightful bonus for us. Her reliability and thoughtful care made a significant difference, and we highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter.”

“We were very impressed with Geosselyn’s care of our dog! Her large fenced in backyard was perfect! Our dog seemed very comfortable with her! We highly recommend Geosselyn!”
“Justin and Stephanie were amazing with Charlie. From the moment I met Justin I knew I had nothing to worry about! I received many pictures and plenty of updates even though he was only there for one day. Communication was excellent and thorough. I really appreciated how kind and considerate they were of my highly anxious sensitive pup and took great care to make him comfortable! Thanks again!”
“Mutig was so happy when we picked him up! I have been nervous about where to leave him during a vacation we have coming up, but I was put at ease after this stay. She sent so many happy pictures of Mutig and Quincy playing and sent me updates of how he was doing. Yvonne and her husband were very caring. She fed the dogs separately, took them out often, and showed a lot of care. We are so glad we found her to have piece of mind that we are leaving Mutig in good hands when we cant be there!”
About: I have taken care of dogs, my whole life whether they were my own or somebody else’s I absolutely love animals your animal will always be safe in my care and have the best time. I’m currently a stay at home mom so if I leave the house, I only leave to go to the grocery store or to grab the little one something to eat if they want it I have a huge backyard my house backs up against the woods. We are not close to the road at all. You’re dog would never be let outside alone my kids would run around in the backyard with them 💕
“Sunaina was great with Loki! He had such a great time with her and her family. She sent us many pictures and updates periodically of him during his time with them. She listened to our instructions on his allergies and food timing, and took him out for walks. We were super happy that he was happy! Definitely will book again when we are back in the area!”
About: Hi there! My name is Kelsie, and caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s who I am. With over 15 years of both professional and personal pet care experience, I bring a deep understanding of animals of all kinds and the love they deserve. I’m comfortable caring for a wide variety of pets, from dogs and cats to birds, fish, and small animals. In fact, my own home is full of furry (and feathery!) family members—I currently have four dogs, a bird, a fish, and a chinchilla. Because of this, I’m very familiar with different temperaments, routines, and care needs. Whether your pet is a playful puppy, a senior who needs extra patience, or has medical needs that require special attention, you can trust that they’ll be in capable and compassionate hands. I have experience caring for pets of all ages and am attentive, reliable, and detail-oriented when it comes to following care instructions. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I treat every animal like they’re my own and strive to make sure they feel loved and secure while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet! I have a busy schedule but I always make time for my clients and their pets. And they always have my focus while I am spending time with them. My husband helps me with my services and between the two of us someone is almost always home! I believe that care should be tailored to each specific pet, so I do not have a set care plan until I meet you and your pets
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I grew up with Border Collies and have also adopted several dogs over the years, so I'm comfortable with everything from high-energy working breeds to laid-back companions. I've also volunteered at several shelters, giving me experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, temperaments, and backgrounds. I work from home (as does my wife) so your pet will be getting consistent, attentive care. To be honest, our dog passed away last fall and we are missing the joy of being dog owners and having dogs around, but we need something a little more flexible for the time being. You are getting two sitters for the price of one and we will care for your dog as if they were our own :) As a former dog parent who has used Rover, my goal is to provide exactly what I was looking for each time I booked a walker/sitter: clear communication, limited hassle, and all of the assurances that you can rest easy and not worry...your doggo is in good hands! I work from home and call my own hours (as does my wife) so as long as we know your dog's routine we will make sure to incorporate it into our own. We have a fenced-in yard and a walking path near our home so walks are never a problem (we love walks). My wife and I both work from home so one of us will always be giving your dog attention/supervision. We have previously owned dogs who were flight risks so we have been conditioned to keep an eye out, keep doors closed, etc. We have a big fenced-in yard and have a little indoor gate/fence that we use in the house if need be to secure a hallway, etc.
“Latoya cared for my Benny as if he was her own. She give him his medication and ensure it was taken at each meal. Latoya is very professional and reliable. Thank you for taking such great care of my furbaby. I highly recommend Latoya and I'm confident you will not be disappointed!!!!”
“Lauren is very flexible and understanding and really great with Chai! Great with updates and giving Chai lots of opportunities to potty and exercise. Chai also gets along great with Lauren’s own pups!”
About: Hi! My name is Shawna, and I’m an animal lover! 🐾 I have a dog named Neeko who loves making new friends, and a cat named Fat Tee who keeps us entertained. I’ve been around animals my entire life and truly love them all. I am happy to take your pups for walks, play outside, or just stay home and provide plenty of cuddles and companionship. I understand that pets are family, and I will do my best to make sure your fur babies are happy, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own! ❤️🐶🐱 I work full-time during the school year but am available evenings, weekends, holidays, and throughout the summer. I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and love while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will follow your pet’s routine, provide lots of attention, and make sure they feel secure and cared for whether I’m in your home or mine.
“Christie, was very kind to have accepted a last minute request to Daycare Pauley. She was very professional and good at handling Pauley. He was very happy with her and her dog was also very friendly with Pauley. definetly recommend her for dog sitting/ day care and or Boarding with her.”
About: Dogs have always had a special place in my heart and require a lot of patience and attention. I have over five years of experience within dog sitting and in my care, they will be loved, respected, and given the enrichment they properly deserve! I'm currently working part-time with plenty of availability during the week! My flexibility allows me to properly care for all the needs of your pet! At my apartment we have a trail that is great for walking pets and in close proximity within my complex. It's perfect for walking your pet(s) and a great place to decompress!

About: I've always had dogs and recently lost my beloved German Shepherd. I have helped my sister in her pet care business for several years now from pups to farm animals. I work full time remotely from home and have the time and desire to keep your fur babies company while they do the same for me. I currently work full-time remotely from home. I'd welcome some company and walk/play breaks in my day. I am often around on Saturdays and Sundays as well. I have a fenced yard for play and potty and would welcome pets into our home just like we did with our pets. I don't have any children at home as they are now all grown. I will also mainly schedule one dog at a time unless they are from the same family to make sure everyone is safe and happy.
“Rover services are top notch. Claudia was/is an angel and was fantastic with my dog Bella. I am using her serive again in a week. I didn't know about the tipping, so l will make up to her on Bella's next visit.”

“Marlee has come for 7 visits now to our geriatric poodle. She takes great care with our old dog and provides him a good walk (if he is willing) and gives him the needed attention. We are so happy she is able to take care of our Andy during the days we can’t. Thank you Marlee!”
“Paul and his fiancée do a great job with my Husky. My dog normally doesn’t enjoy other humans, and he loses his appetite when I travel. But Paul’s energy didn’t bring any of those concerns out.”
“Christine does a phenomenal job caring for our puppy while we are at work. She responds immediately, takes a bunch of pics for us, and always ensures he is comfortable before leaving. Christine always makes sure to meet our specific needs and is very attentive with Arlo. We are so thankful to have such a reliable and kind person to assist us when needed.”
About: and Sophie! Hi, I’m Sophie! I attended a vocational trade school where I studied Animal Science for three years. I gained hands-on experience caring for a variety of small and large animals, while learning proper handling and restraints, health and behavior, as well as how to safely administer oral and injectable medications. Through my training, I became certified in animal first aid and CPR. I also have experience caring for puppies/kittens, senior animals and pets with special needs, so I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and maintaining consistent routines. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, and also worked at a kennel in high school, so I have spent years caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Because of that, I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I give the best care and attention that I possibly can. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing in the yard, relaxing on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, we are committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. We will provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving attentive, reliable care. We understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in the care of someone else, and our goal is to make that experience as stress-free as possible for both you and your furry family member! :) Hey! I’m Dylan and I’m a lifelong animal lover with a ton of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up on a farm and have always had multiple pets at a time, so I learned responsibility and animal care at a young age. I currently have 3 dogs and 4 cats of my own, and I love spending time with them—whether it’s going on runs with my dogs or cuddling up with my cats. I’m calm, patient, and always make sure animals feel safe and cared for. I treat every animal like they’re my own, with love and respect. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, some playtime, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel loved and cared for while you’re away! I’m currently working a full-time job Monday through Thursday, from 6am until anywhere between 3pm and 5pm, depending on the day. I have Saturdays and Sundays off, and occasionally Fridays. Sophie works 2pm to 10pm a few days a week, her schedule is different every week. Since our schedules are opposite and Sophie has a bit more free time, one of us is always available to spend a good amount of time with your pet. The first thing we do when taking care of our own pets, or others pets, is let them out to go to the bathroom. Next, we prioritize feeding and medicating (if necessary) and cleaning and refilling all water bowls. Once everything important is taken care of, we then spend quality time with them, whether it’s playing fetch, cuddling or going for a walk. Before we leave, we make sure we let them back outside for a good while to make sure they take care of all of their business.
“Erikah was great with my parents’ dog and easy to work with prior and after the walk. I appreciated that she did a meet and greet. I manage my parents Rover account from afar and it’s sometimes hard to find walkers who are so responsive and nice.”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life from small pets to large dogs and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I grew up helping friends and neighbors with their pets, which gave me a solid foundation in handling dogs of all sizes and personalities. Now, I have a 1.5 year old Lab named Knox who’s full of energy and love. He keeps me active, patience’s, and always on my toes! I also have a 9 year old cat named Levi, who brings a calm, loving balance to our home. Because of them, I understand how important it is to trust someone who will treat your pet like family Whether your dog needs a long walk, some playtime, or just a calm presence while you’re away, I’m here to help. I’m reliable, communicative, and will always make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for as if they were mine. Let me know what your pet needs. I’m happy to accommodate special routines or preferences! I’m a full-time nursing student with plenty of free time during the day, so I’m great for helping out while you’re at work. I know how important it is for pets to get attention and exercise in the middle of those long days. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, or just some company to keep your animals happy and relaxed on your busy days. I have empathy for those who having to leave their animals so safety is a top priority for me when pet sitting. I will always use a leash when on walks and at home if there is no fenced in yard available. Also would like to know if the pet has any special instructions and their likes/ dislikes.
About: Hi everyone! My name's Shirl and I am hoping to make your life a bit easier by taking away the stress of leaving your pup behind while you're away. I have been pet sitting for over 12 years; I used to have dogs come board with me while owners went away, but I've found that most owners prefer their pets to stay in the comfort of their own home. I have years of experience doing overnight pet sitting, but unfortunately my growing family (3 dogs and a cat of my own) no longer allows for me to stay away from home overnight. I am happy to provide multiple daily visits and/or walks! My goal is to keep your pet as comfortable as possible while you're away, by keeping their daily routine as close to "normal" as possible. I've cared for all types of pets including dogs, cats, bunnies, chicks, quail, lizards, fish, etc.! I am an experienced dog handler/ animal lover at heart. I worked at/managed a doggie day care/boarding facility for 4 years, learning from a very experienced trainer who focuses on positive reinforcement techniques ONLY. During my time there, I had opportunities to complete trainings to understand dog behaviors and body language. I have volunteered at BARCS as a dog walker/foster, working primarily with bully breeds. Why I love dog sitting I have been an animal lover my entire life. From playing with salamanders as a kid, to growing up with cats and dogs of all shapes and sizes; I've also had bunnies, fish, frogs, hermit crabs, hamsters, birds...the list goes on! I couldn't imagine a life without animals in it. My experience administering medication Yes. Working at a dog boarding facility for nearly 2 years I have had to give many forms of medications, and my personal pets also take oral medications. I am not trained to give injections. My full time job allows me to work from home majority of the week. That makes it easy for me to swing by for a visit at different times of the day. The latest drop in I can provide is 7pm. I am happy to provide updates as soon as I arrive, during the stay, and as I leave. For dog walks, I prefer not to introduce any dog that I’m handling to another dog passing by. This ensures everyone’s safety.
About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life, big and small! I’ve bathed, feed, played with, and let dogs outside! Cuddles are a must! I attend Western Kentucky University but am home for the summer. I currently work part time at Brusters Ice Cream! My schedule changes weekly however I don’t work everyday meaning there is plenty of time for stopping by throughout the day! I will update clients on schedule changes to fit their needs and make sure all pets are taken care of properly. Most shifts are at night so I can stop by for feedings and bathroom breaks before work and after! Care begins with attention. Following clients instructions as every dogs and cats needs are different. Proper safety, comfort, and routine is important! Whether backyards aren’t fenced in or animals are fed at a specific time clients instructions are always important to follow!
About: With a lifelong passion for dogs and three years of hands-on training in animal science at TCHS, I provide expert care in walking, feeding, grooming, and administering medications.

Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine as I currently work part-time at Vixen Hall Kennels. My schedule changes weekly, but I’m flexible with hours and can easily accommodate different times. I’m also willing to get up early or stay up late if needed to ensure your pets receive the best care at any time of day. I treat every pet like they’re my own, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. I follow any specific instructions provided by the owner to maintain their pets' routine, whether it’s feeding, playtime, or medication. I’m committed to providing personalized care and always prioritize the well-being of each animal, ensuring a stress-free experience while you're away.
About: What sets me apart is 15+ years of pet care experience, expertise with senior and special-needs pets, and a personalized approach to every animal’s unique needs.

My experience with pets ensures that providing attentive, loving care feels natural and enjoyable, whether it’s a quick visit or an extended stay. With me as your sitter, your pet will be safe and comfortable in my home. With over 15 years of experience, I provide a pet-friendly, secure environment, free of hazards, where your pet will receive personalized care and attention.

“Sharon was wonderful with our dogs! She watched my two dogs and my sisters' two dogs for a weeklong vacation. Our pups are older and take oral medications as well as needing to go out frequently. Sharon handled their issues in stride, and even got my sister's timid anxious dog to warm up. They loved running around in the fenced back yard and snuggling up in the dog room with lots of spaces to take a break. Sharon sent pictures and updates throughout the trip. Would definitely work with Sharon again!”
“Karen kept my 2 English Bulldogs and a 10 y/o Boston Terrier for a long weekend and they came home healthy and happy.

“Pamela was wonderful with our lab. Her property is safe & spacious for pets to run around and play. Pamela’s communication is excellent providing many pictures showing our dog having fun & being well cared for. I would definitely book with her again and recommend her services.”
“Diane was great & I'd recommend her for your dog sitting needs. Cared for a senior dog with medication needs. Lots of walks! Kept us informed on how our dog was doing. A joy to talk to and was very friendly.”
“Cassandra was very polite and professional. She appeared to be knowledgeable about dogs and asked me questions about my dog to make her feel comfortable while staying with her. She sent me pics everyday and updated me on what or how she was doing each day. I would recommend her anytime.”
“Sunaina was kind to take care of my dog. Lots of photos and videos were shared with us which was greatly appreciated. My dog had a great time at their place. Thank you!”
“Chyann, was an amazing sitter for my baby. Beanie stayed with her for a week and throughout the entire stay she kept me updated with pictures and insight into how he was doing. She’s one of the more informed sitters on this platform and following our meet-and-greet I was completely sold on choosing her as a sitter. With the updates, smooth transition for drop-off, and Chyann’s warm personality I was completely at ease and confident throughout the boarding process. I’d definitely recommend choosing Chyann!”
“Elizabeth was great! She sent plenty of updates during our dog’s stay, which was greatly appreciated and followed all instructions when it came to him. She was also super sweet and her family was just as sweet, we felt very comfortable leaving Meechie with her.”
About: My home is always filled with love and laughter over our dogs. Rex is 16, a ShihZhu, Jack is 10 yr Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, and Peppa is 8 yr Chihuahua. Good nutrition, comfort, care, love and exercise are the keys to our content and playful pets. I am currently retired, and I have time on my hands. Dogs are very important to me, I feel they know more than we think they know. To give a dog comfort, company in your time of need would be my pleasure. I will take your instruction on how you’d like me to structure walks, exercise, feeding and meds. The playing and affection part is included. I will help you keep you pet on their routine.
