“Jasmine was able to fit us in last minute. She was great with our golden retriever. We received updates and our pup was calm and happy when we picked her up. Will use her services again!”
“From the moment Peyton toddled into their home, she was loved. Liz, Jeffrey, and family, are a wonderful stop for any four-legged when you can't do it yourself. I don't think mine wanted to leave when I arrived to pick her up. Peyton can't wait to visit again. Many thanks!”
“Happy! Sweetie seems to really enjoy having other friends to play with. Thank Robin and everyone for their special care during this excessive heatwave!”
“This was our first time away from our 11 month old furry! Fidel and Melissa provided assurance during drop off and sent photos and communication through out his stay! There were a few other dogs too so that Creed had socialized play. We are pleased when we drove up and saw Creed in a sit, leaning against Melissa, and happy even before he saw us! Thank you guys for providing a home away from home!”
“I loved the fact that she took the initiative to take the dogs on walks and to the dog park. The puppies also were very happy in the pictures and there were daily reports that were in character for my dogs. When I came to pick up the puppies, the dogs were happy and relaxed. I am so happy with her service.”
“Marliez was great with my Bentlee. She sent plenty of pics and videos. I’m always worried about him being around other dogs because he’s so young but she handled him so well. Def would recommend.”
“Brittany and Shane were great sitters for our dog Rowan! They sent daily updates with photos and treated him like one of their own dogs. Rowan seemed to get along and enjoy playing with their dogs too! They have a large fenced in backyard and plenty of space for the dogs to play. We know Rowan is excited to go back to stay with Brittany and Shane again!”
“Megan was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING with our two dogs, Nelson and Kodie! Both can be energetic at times and both like lots of cuddles which they both received the entire stay. She followed the schedule perfectly and put our minds at ease! Communication was GREAT! Megan kept us informed of their daily activities from the time they woke up until they went to bed (including mealtimes, play time and cuddle time). She sent GREAT photos (AND I MEAN GREAT) the photos were picture perfect for magazines!! :) Megan was reliable and adjusted to our schedule with drop off and pick up. When the dogs ran out of the canned food, she offered and picked some up for us! How nice! :) At pick up both dogs were happy and well taken care of! BUT what touched my son and I the most is we were going through our pets bag and found Megan had placed a gift bag for Nelson and Kodie that consisted of a card, plush dog toy, and dog treats! WHAT A SURPRISE- We are STILL SMILING!!! :) THANK YOU MEGAN VERY NICE MEETING YOU AND WE ROVER PET PARENTS WILL BE RETURNING!!! :)”
“Brandon was a lifesaver! He took great care of my over active super energetic puppy! He was very accommodating and our dog loved playing with his gorgeous fur baby!!”
“I have never left my kitty before so I was a little nervous! Sabrina and Ryan sent pics and notes almost everyday showing how well he was doing in their care. He was very relaxed and comfortable in their home. I was so relieved, they were amazing. I also ran into some travel issues coming home and they were very accommodating with the pick up schedule. I would definitely use them again!!”
“Ashley was amazing with Bingo and provided constant updates. She was very patient with him as it took him some time to get comfortable. Had some personal emergencies, so we had to extend Bingo’s stay, and she was very accommodating.”
“Just picked up my pups from staying with Alex for the weekend. They had a great weekend playing with Reese. Alex sent us pics of them and they were so relaxed and happy. They look forward to staying again!!!”
“My dog was well taken care of and Shaun really tried to understand my dog. My dog was allowed to be the dog he is. My dog has developed some social skills with the visit. Shaun really cared about my dog.”
“Brinda & her husband were absolutely amazing!! She sent me so many picture & video updates throughout each day, which I really appreciated. They filled my pups’ days with plenty of walks, play time, & snuggles. I couldn’t have asked for anything more & will definitely book with them again!”
“Lidia is really great and very nice! My dog had a good time and was napping afterwards from being active with her and her dog all day. Thank you Lidia, I will definitely book with you again!”
“Geovanna was absolutely amazing with my fur babies while I was out of the country! She updated me every single day and sent the sweetest photos of my girls, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. My oldest, Cali, can be a bit feisty at times, but Geovanna handled everything so well and I am incredibly grateful. She was also extremely responsive, immediately answering any questions I had. To top it off, when my flight got delayed, she was so understanding and accommodating about extending the time. We all know things happen when traveling, and she made a stressful situation so much easier! I would definitely use Geovanna again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for safe, loving hands for their pets. 🤍🐶”
“Amanda was so great with my nervous girl Xena, she provided a safe, loving home for her to stay in. Amanda was also amazing with providing detailed updates and photos. I would give 10 stars if I could.”

About: I first fell in love with cats when I was 14 years old and over the years I have come to appreciate the unique personality each feline brings. From curious kittens to wise senior cats, I provide gentle, attentive care to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My goal is to create a calm and nurturing environment where every cat can truly thrive.
“Great experience again! It was so nice to know my boy was in good hands while I was gone--definitely made the vacation a lot easier to enjoy ❤️. Would 100% recommend!”
“Melissa was great with our cats! Came by to meet them before we left on our trip. She came by, took photos, and made sure they were happy and taken care of while we were away. Thanks so much, Melissa!”
“Megan was an amazing caretaker of my cat. She was very attentive to detail and her visits provided the comfort my senior cat was longing for while I was away for six nights. I’m looking forward to provide her services whenever I’ll be out of town.”
“Absolutely wonderful sitter! I am always highly anxious about leaving my cats behind when I travel, but James’s very thorough report cards and photos made me significantly less anxious about them. The cats loved him and I returned home to 2 happy kitties ☺️”
“Stephanie was an angel! My baby boy was so well taken care of. I was unfortunately called away for last minute travel and then had travel complications and Stephanie was not only able to help out last minute but she also adjusted her schedule to add on an extra day. Stephanie was super communicative and provided so many pictures. I will definitely be using Stephanie again and highly recommend her!”
“Grateful to Tabitha for taking care of Luna and Oliver while we were out of town! Luna was happy for the company and both cats were well taken care of during the visit.”
“I cannot recommend Lidia enough! She took care of my cat Mr. Chubs, for a full week, and I am beyond impressed with the care and attention she gave him. From refreshing multiple water bowls to handling the occasional hairball cleanup, Lidia followed every instruction to a T—and did it all with genuine kindness and love. Mr. Chubs can be particular about his routine, but when I came home, he was calm, happy, and clearly well-loved. Lidia kept me updated throughout my trip and gave me such peace of mind knowing my fur baby was in the best hands. If you adore your pet and want someone who will treat them like family, Lidia is your girl. Five stars isn’t enough!”
“Fennel is awesome! She communicates very well whether it is coordinating the service, any instructions needed for care, or whatever may be occurring during the visit. She goes above and beyond to care for your babies, I would highly recommend her for your next booking.”
“This vacation would not have been possible without Ryan and Sabrina! They loved Slate as one of their own and he has fallen in love with them. The daily updates were priceless for me!”
“Maria was absolutely fabulous! ✨ Sent me so many pictures of my baby daily which I appreciated so much. Definitely will be booking her next time I need someone to check in on my boy.”
“10/10, I would absolutely book with her again! She made the entire experience seamless from start to finish. Communication was excellent, everything went smoothly, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pets were in great hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely recommend her to others.”
“Cheyenne was awesome in taking care of our little furballs. One of our cats has hyperthyroidism, and she was amazing in making sure he got his medication twice a day. Our other cat is very skittish but she always made sure to check on her and little Winry did eventually warm up enough to play. We already plan on rebooking Cheyenne whenever we are able to!”
“Chelsea was absolutely great! She provided drop in care for our 2 cats when we were out of town. She did exactly what we asked her to manage and it was great! Our cats were very happy and comfortable around her which is NOT the norm. Just goes to show how sweet and good she is with pets. I highly recommend!”
“Needed a last min sitter and Carly was quick to answer and amazing! I felt so stress free knowing that they were with someone reliable, sweet, and trust worthy def will rebook in the future and totally recommend her to everybody :). Thankyou Carly your the best!!!”

“Liz and Jeffrey were so wonderful with Lola and Daisy! It was fairly last minute and they were incredibly understanding. They provided a lot of information about their home and care that made me feel so much better about dropping my girls off with them. They even got to attend the eclipse viewing party with some fabulous kids!! They provided lots of updates and videos which helped me enjoy a long day at work. One of the best Rover experiences I've ever had, if not the very best!!”

About: Hello, I am here to make sure your fur baby is safe and comfortable while you are away. With 8+ years of experience I have learned that every furry friend is different. Different distractions, different tastes, different attitudes but one thing each furry friend can’t resist is love and attention.

I work with all ages and sizes. Dogs and cats are all welcome❤️ Pet care fits into my daily routine by being my daily routine haha. I work from home and I have a lot of extra time to provide love and attention. I am practically home 24/7 and thats the way I like it❤️ I am always available if your fur baby wants to tag along around the house. I have crates if a friend needs to be crated or separated in another room. Always keeping a friendly calm environment. I live in a 3 level home with a nice yard for some exercise. Also, the neighborhood has a nice trail for some walks.

“We had such a great experience with this daycare! They were absolutely amazing—so kind, attentive, and clearly loves what they do. Saint had the best time and really bonded with their dog, Kai. They went on walks, played together, and even had time to rest and nap, which I really appreciated. I felt completely at ease knowing Saint was in such good hands. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”

““Absolutely amazing experience! caring, and genuinely loves the dogs. From the moment we walked in, I felt comfortable leaving my fur baby in Lanese care. I received updates and could tell my dog was having a great time. My pup came home happy, tired, and excited to return—which says a lot Highly recommend to anyone looking for a safe and loving doggy daycare”

“Naya is AMAZING! My husband and I have a long commute and needed someone to take care of our pup during the way while we're at work. Before we found Naya, we were really concerned about leaving him somewhere else for so long during the day. But we really lucked out in finding Naya! Naya has her own 2 dogs and a huge backyard that our pup loves to play in! She takes him for walks, teaches him tricks, and helps us so much by training with him as well!

About: I’ve owned cats for 30+ years. I helped care for a family dog in my young adulthood for 4+ years. Our family just started dog sitting for friends when needed and all parties involved adjust well to bringing new pets temporarily into the home. Even though we do not have our own dog we love and enjoy dogs. We are flexible with the type, age and size of dog. My kids and I love going on walks and being out in our big back yard. Having a dog join us for these times just makes it even more enjoyable! We understand that a pet is a part of the family and therefore we will treat your pet like part of our family for the duration of their stay. I am a stay at home mom. My schedule is flexible and we are usually not out of the house for more than a couple hours at a time and this is just occasionally. We have an excellent yard that any dog would go crazy for. I have young kids who will love on and play with your dogs. I am happy to go by any instructions you give me on how best to care for your pet. I am flexible in my schedule. I am a stay at home mom. This allows me to be available for your pet and their needs. We will treat your pet like they are part of the family while they stay with us. My kids and I will engage with them throughout the day by playing outside/inside and going on walks.

“Stephanie was awesome. I needed someone to come walk my puppy, my regular dog walker couldn’t do it and Stephanie was happy to help. She took Willow for a 1/2 hr walk made sure she had water. She sent plenty of pictures was very easy to communicate with just an overall sweet person! I really liked her and will use her in the future! Highly recommend Stephanie!”
“OMG!! Lanese was a last minute lifesaver before my trip! She was very thoughtful and accommodating towards the task of daily walks for Max.

“Tabitha's walks saved my pup from turning morose & depressed while I'm recovering from an injury. Haiku is cheerily anticipating her arrival as something to look forward to ... I especially appreciate her conscientiousness, concerns & flexibility during the current heat-wave, not to exhaust & stress the dog's welfare. Thanks, I'm truly grateful for this match :-)”
“Shane and Brittany have been so great with me and my dog! I’m a worrier, especially when it comes to my dog, since she isn’t always a walk in the park. Shane and Brittany have been very patient with answering all my questions and giving feedback on Gucci’s daily walks. They have also been very attentive to Gucci’s needs. I couldn’t ask for better!”
About: I’ve grown up around both small and large dogs, giving me experience with a wide variety of breeds and personalities. I’ve also cared for and dog sat more dogs than I can count. Me and my partner love dogs and we wish we could have our own - but out jobs are both in person Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday making it impossible to be there for a dog during the week. However, we would love to care for an animal over a weekend! Or even just dog sit! I currently work from home only on Mondays and Fridays. I am in person Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. I would be happy to help in baby sitting for long weekends and walks on the weekends! We currently live in a townhome with both a small front and back yard. While neither yard is fenced, your dog’s safety is my top priority. I always keep dogs on a leash when outside and never let them off leash unless they are in a fully fenced, secure area.
“Ryan was reliable and showed up on time and made an extra effort to get to know my dog and make my dog feel comfortable. I really appreciate Ryan walking Eli and will be booking him in the future!”
“Whitney is an amazing walker for our full of life puppy WALL-E. Her introduction was very friendly. Her communication is great. I would definitely recommend Whitney to anyone and for the new and existing ROVER members that's in the area. Take heed to what's needed for our handsome little guy!! You Rocks Whitney!!”
“Fennel is an outstanding sitter! They always keep me informed about the status of my pet and provide feedback and photos even when it is just for a short walk. They were also extremely helpful and reliable when I booked them for an all day stay. Highly recommend!”
“Emma was great ! She answered every message quickly , checked in each walk and made sure cai was well taken care of. It was a last minute request which she came and met Cai the same week! It was also cold and bad weather but she still made sure he was able to get outside ! Highly reccomend”
“Kaitlyn is super exceptional and awesome! I reached out for an initial request and interview with a set schedule. However my schedule was wacky and I needed more than what I asked for and Kaitlyn helped me out with no issue! Kaitlyn also has shown my Ella so much attention and love within their first week together and I love that! Kaitlyn has gone above what I could have expected and I so grateful! She is a jewel and you won’t be disappointed!!!!”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, extra playtime, or a little patience and encouragement, I’m happy to provide attentive care and regular updates so you can have peace of mind. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care throughout the week. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and bathroom breaks while making sure each pet receives the attention and care they need. I’m committed to being reliable, punctual, and communicative so pet parents always know their furry family member is in good hands. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and walking preferences. During walks, I remain attentive to my surroundings and keep pets securely leashed unless otherwise instructed in a safe, enclosed area. In your home, I will respect your space, maintain your pet’s routine, and provide regular updates with photos so you can feel confident your pet is receiving excellent care while you’re away.
About: I have owned dogs my whole life, and know how to take care of them. I also have experience with cats, I have helped my grandfather with a stray cat that chose him! I'm openly available, as of today. I like to volunteer, but that usually only takes about 4 or 5 hours. I will give your pet the time it needs. You make sure that they have plenty of fresh water, eat on time, and walk them every day when the sun is not too hot, eg in the morning or evening.
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I was a teenager. I’ve mainly done check ins or walks. I change pee pads/litter boxes, play with, and feed the animals when needed during the morning, day, and evening. I’m available during the weekdays and weekends during the morning, afternoon, and evening for check ins and walks so I’ll be able to care for your fur babies as needed! I will always make sure that fences are locked up and secure for play time as well as doors inside the house before I leave. I can also crate your fur baby if needed!

This was perfect as we saw how much of a difference it makes for our dog vs being at a doggie daycare center. She provides updates and pictures to ease our minds and always on top of communication. We are so grateful! And will be repeat customers.”
