“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!”
“Thank you so much to Ms. Anika! She is the best! She has been watching our furbaby for about 4 years now and I don’t know what we would do without her. Her love and care allowed us to have a 9 day worry free family vacation❤️”
“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!”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with Marco and Polo! From the moment we dropped them off, we felt completely comfortable knowing they were in caring and loving hands. She kept us updated, treated them like family, and clearly paid attention to their individual personalities and needs. Marco and Polo came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for — which says everything. Sarah went above and beyond, and her kindness and professionalism truly stood out. It’s hard to find someone you can fully trust with your pets, but Sarah made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and attentive sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you again, Sarah, for taking such wonderful care of our boys!”
“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! 🫶🏾”
“The perfect choice! Lilian was pleasant from beginning to end and willing to answer any questions we have! The updates on our pup were truly appreciated! We would certainly recommend.”
“CiCi and Nick took such good care of my pup while we were traveling. They were very flexible and made sure everything went extremely smoothly. He instantly seemed right at home with them. They sent updates and photos everyday and from the goofy smile on his face it looked like he was having the time of his life. They had plenty of space for him to run around and he very quickly made friends with their adorable Dalmatian. I will definitely be using them again in the future!”
“This was our first time boarding our baby Zoey and everything was perfect! Megan communicated with me and sent me pictures and videos everyday while we were away. I am very pleased with her services and will rebook with her again!”
“We are so happy with how well our three dogs were cared for by Tanita and her family. It was our first stay with them and all went very well. We'll be back.”
“Alicia and Randy are wonderful pet hosts!!! The care, attention, professionalism, follow up, and the love they have for their furry clients are just a few examples of superior work. You can instantly tell that they have a genuine love for animals, my Lola was treated with love and great care. I recommend Alicia to anyone that is looking for a safe and loving place for their pets stay. Thank you a million times Alicia, Randy, and their pets Cruz and Azalea for opening your house for Lola.”
“Kelly was such a relief with helping us on a last-minute boarding over the Christmas weekend. As it was our first time using rover, she was very good at calming my concerns and making sure I understood how everything would happen. She was even kind enough to send pictures while we were away. The whole experience was so much better than the typical kennel setup - not sure we’ll even think of anything but Rover and Kelly next time.”
“Kerry and her family took amazing care of my dog Briggs while I was out of town. I got loads of adorable pictures, and he was returned groomed and fluffy with a new bandana. I highly recommend them and will be reaching out again when I travel.”
“When I picked up Jackson, I was not sure he wanted to leave his vacation with Kathryn and her wonderful family! Sure he was excited to see us, but, then he laid down next to Kathryn as if he was feeling pretty comfortable at her home! She sent photos and write ups daily and this made me feel so much better about leaving him in her care. It was like he knew the family forever! This was the first time we went away without him in 8 years so I was a bit anxious about leaving. I would have no problems leaving him again if I have another opportunity to do so. I highly recommend Kathryn and I know he was very happy being there and well cared for. He enjoyed his daily walks and never missed a meal and perhaps, Me!!!! If there were 10 stars I would click everyone of them!”

“John was fantastic! He kept us updated on what was going on at home and sent us pictures of the pets each day. He made sure the cats and Guiana pig didn’t miss a step in their routine while we were out of town. Fantastic experience! We will use him again.”
“Amber was great. She gave me a time that would work for her because she couldn’t do my time and turns out that worked too. I’m a dummy and thought I updated my address so it sent her to the wrong house and she still went to my right address to leave the pups out. Luna and Kallie look like they had a great time and can definitely trust her with my girls!”
“Alecia was a great drop in sitter for our two feline fur kids. She did a nice detailed meet and greet prior to our trip out of town and met our cats. She checked in often and took lots of cute pics. I would certainly use her services again for future sitting and drop in sessions.”
“Leah is wonderful!! She’s a great communicator and wonderful with my cats. She took great care of them while I was gone . She’s very reliable , I knew my cats were in great hands, so I could relax and enjoy my vacation I will definitely call Leah next time I go away.”
“James goes above and beyond for the kitties, and for us. If there is something that needs to be done, he does it, and he always keeps in excellent contact with us, no matter what. We love (and the kitties love) James!”
About: I have taken care of animals for over a year now at a dog daycare/boarding centre in a variety of different circumstances. From Mastiff’s to Chihuahuas, I am confident taking care of various different sized dogs with a variety of different dietary needs from raw diets to kibble diets, medical needs from dogs that get medication once a day to dogs that get medication several times a day, and activity needs from dogs that need regular exercise to senior dogs that don’t need to be exercised. I have also had experience handling dogs that are extremely nervous around new people, dogs that can resource guard toys, and dogs that are highly reactive. I am a full-time commuter college student with large gaps between my morning and afternoon classes which I can travel to and from the owners house to let their dogs out and play with during. The only time that I am unable to stop by the house between classes is on Thursdays where I will be gone from 8 am to 2 pm due to my in-person lab course. I only offer services at my clients house so as of not to subject the pet to unnecessary stress from being in a new environment. I can administer any medication that is not via injection, I can cater to a variety of diets ranging from raw meat every day to freshly cooked food three times a day to kibble twice a day depending on the dogs needs, I have personal leashes that I can use or I can use the owners leashes to take the dog on walks as often as request/needed.

When you board your dog with us rest assure they will be treated as part of the family. I am currently a SAHM so the dogs get lots of attention and playtime we have a fenced dog area in our backyard, allowing the dogs free range to run and play with eachother. we have also have a side of the house specifically blocked off just for the dogs in the case that they want to rest without being bothered.

I have a fenced dog part and a friendly jack russel as well as 2 kida who love to play and tired the dogs out.
“Vanessa was great. Dealing with my cat herd isn't easy because they are masters of hide and seek. She was able to find and photo a few and even got a few pets in with one of them. She provided updates and pics daily. Anything out of the ordinary or new cat destruction she provided notice! Nice to go away and not be stressed over their care!”
About: Hi, I’m Amber! While I’ve had dogs my entire life, I became a cat owner about a year ago and have loved learning about their unique personalities and needs. In addition to caring for my own cat, I’ve also spent time around family members’ and friends’ cats over the years, which has helped me become comfortable caring for cats with different temperaments. I understand that every cat is different. Some love attention and playtime, while others prefer a quiet, patient approach. I’m happy to meet your cat where they’re comfortable and will always follow their routine and your care instructions closely. Whether it’s feeding, refreshing water, cleaning the litter box, playing, or simply providing companionship, I’ll make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind.
“Ben is very reliable and trustworthy. He took great care of my kitties while I was away, and left the litterboxes and house clean. Did a great job with special feeding situations. I highly recommend Ben!”
“Callie did a fantastic job taking care of our cat while we were away. Very good with communication during her visits and included daily pictures. Was very helpful to collect our mail and packages as well. We will definitely use Callie again in the future!”
About: I look forward to providing the calm, personalized care I give every pet. I take the time to learn each cat’s personality, routine, and comfort needs so they feel safe and stress-free while you’re away. I have experience working with young pets who need patience, consistency, and gentle guidance, as well as senior cats who require extra attention, medication support, and a slower, more thoughtful approach. I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own.
“Bree was an excellent care giver for my cat Baby. I cannot express enough what it meant to not have to worry. Bree sent daily photos and videos. She went out of her way to engage and play games with my anti-social fur baby 😊. Bree was friendly and dependable and I will be working with her again!”
“Sam is the best! They actually spend time at the house when they do drop ins and play with our pets. We have used them twice and the first time was very last minute and they were able to accommodate us. We trust them 100%. We highly recommend Sam!”

“Jacqueline did a outstanding job taking care of Lulu. My 20 month old golden retriever is high energy and she was outside throwing freebies and balls with her a many times during the day. She sent us pictures and videos throughout the day. The whole process was very easy and she was flexible when we needed a little later with pickup. We will definitely be a repeat client. Thank you Jacqueline 😊”
“Suzy was so concerned about my safety and ability to go to a memorial for a friend. When I was late, she was immediatly understanding, in fact, supportive. It was so lucky that I got in touch with her in the first place. . She greeted us with her two dogs, who were so sweet. She made sure the dogs had a proper introduction and gave me confidence that she would be able to handle my very active Australian cattle dog. All went beautifully.”

I will always prioritize that animal's safety and care and will remain vigilant when pet sitting or walking to ensure that safety.
About: I’ve had animas my entire life from dogs to chickens, rabbits, a chinchilla, turtles, a bearded dragon, cats, and more! Dogs hold a special place in my heart. I’ve trained with dogs my whole life. I worked at a dog kennel for 7 years, trained dogs professionally for 4, and recently graduated from an accredited dog training school called Starmark! I have also been trusted and recommended by many people who know me well and they have all given nothing but good feedback and compliments, I take pride in my animal care! I am currently between jobs after graduating and so I have a lot of free time to dedicate towards helping people and animals! You may message me with any further inquiries or questions you might have! While I do not have a fenced in yard, I am still very capable of providing lots of enrichment for dogs! My dogs go to parks, they walk on long lines outside to give them a lot of space, we go on sniffy walks, they get lick mats, enrichment toys, mental games, training, and so much more! My yard is also very large featuring a large in ground pool (fenced in) and multiple large areas of grass and lots of woods behind my house! I also have chickens that while kept in a secure, separate area, help keep the tick population minimal!
About: I have experience with large dogs and small dogs and love spending time with animals. I am currrently without animals at the moment which leaves more time for me to help others! I work full time but have availability some afternoons and evenings and also weekends. My job is also flexible so I’m able to take lunch breaks and work from home most days. I can work with your schedule and be flexible to what you and your animals need. Please just let me know what you’re looking for and we can work together to make that happen!
About: I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I’m extremely attentive to routines, moods, and comfort levels, so your pet feels safe, understood, and genuinely cared for. Most importantly, I'm compassionate and caring. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the time and attention they need throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday visits, or evening playtime, I’m able to adjust to each pet’s routine. In my home, pets receive a safe, calm, and comfortable environment. I follow their usual routines—feeding times, bathroom breaks, and playtime—to help them feel at home. I provide plenty of attention, affection, and supervision throughout the day while making sure they have a clean space, fresh water, and lots of love.
About: I am naturally a very empathetic person and that helps me care for animals because I tune into their wants and needs easily. I do research into the biology and psychology of different animals to also better understand them. I have raised and potty trained puppies, cats, and even rats. I also love to teach animals new tricks or games to keep their minds sharp and stimulated. I'm a nice blend of layed back and excitable so I value both play and rest with my animals. Fun fact: I raised my own emotional support Fancy Rat who was litter trained and obedient. I have an open schedule. Routine requests are allowed but not required (whether that be weekly furrbaby sitting or daily walks...etc.). I care for all living things in a respectful and loving manner. I firmly believe in positive reinforcement and as-needed discipline. I am fully vaccinated. I have a 4 year old Great Dane named Haven Marie. Haven is very friendly with everyone, she loves dogs, cats, kittens, and more. She's well mannered and the perfect blend of relaxed and energetic as well. She can come with or stay behind on any reservations! I don't have another job or many commitments at this time, so I have fairly open availability and I pride myself on my flexibility with all clients. I'm very easy to work with, especially if you're plans are always changing. I go with the flow. I don't use retractable leases, I walk with a clicker, and I like to harness any medium dogs or larger breeds when taking them on walks, so I can ensure the best quality of service and their safety.
About: I’m an experienced, reliable, and responsible pet sitter who truly loves animals. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for your pets when you’re away, and I treat every pet as if they were my own.

Fresh water, regular feeding, medication administration if needed and lots of love! I can guarantee your pup will never get lonely!

About: I have always loved dogs and had my own, but I started caring for other people’s dogs at around 13 years old. In early 2022, I started working at the doggy daycare/boarding facility I currently work at, and I am now a manager there. I am responsible for feeding, bathing, administering medication, playing with and cleaning up after dogs of all different breeds, temperaments, ages and sizes, and I couldn’t be more passionate about my job. I currently work full time (at a dog kennel), and my schedule is consistent but switches days every week. I know my schedule very far out in advance so it should be easy to work with! I have 2 dogs at home that are well trained but not very friendly with other dogs, so at home boarding does not work for me. However, at your home, I can work with whatever system you have going for your dogs already, whether that be a crate training system or something different. I have plenty of experience from my current job and can meet all the needs you and your furry friend need to be satisfied:)
About: I had Chows as a kid growing up and I've had my current Chow for 8 years. I love dogs and animals in general and understand the importance of having someone reliable to call on to be able to take care of them. I'll show your furbabies the love they deserve and make sure they're looked after while you're away. I'm available to take care of your pet as needed. I'd love to arrange a meet & greet to get to know your pet in their environment and discuss expectations. My goal is to make sure your pet is happy and well taken care of while you're away. Let me know their feeding and activity schedule and your instructions for keeping their area clean and tidy.
“Amanda did great with Willy. I had to put off the initial meet and greet a few times and she was very flexible with me. She was great walking with him and taking him out and back in the crate. Answered my questions in detail when I asked how he was during the walk and putting him in his crate. I highly recommend Amanda!”
About: Hello! I have been housesitting for about 5 years now for horses, dogs, cats, and more. I have experience in first aid and medication administering if needed. As well as spending my youth in 4-H and working in animal based settings, I am very knowledgeable of proper care. I strive to bring a positive energy around all animals I’m currently working part time, and I am in college part time as well. I am happy to work around both our schedules as I can be flexible! Any time spent with animals is time well spent for me! I am happy to continue whatever schedule/habits you like to keep your pets on while you’re away. I have learned so much about proper care over the years, and I will ensure your pet is happy and healthy!

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 had dogs and cats my whole life and am able to care for any type of animal. I am also able to administer medicine and take care of elderly dogs or pets with special needs. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! I’m a military wife and currently a SAHM so I am available all day between the hours of 830am-3pm and in the evenings as well once my husband is home from work. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly cats who have been around dogs. I am able to crate your pet if needed or am also fine with them roaming free in my home.
“Taylor was great working with our dog who get very anxious meeting new people. She did everything possible to make our dog more comfortable and it worked out great. She was able to take a nice walk with our dog and worked with our dog to make her more comfortable. I would recommend Taylor to anyone looking for services on Rover.”
“Erik was great with my overly energetic lab. Bella was so excited to see him. This was my first time officially using Rover and I would definitely recommend it to friends and family. Thanks Erik for treating Bella like your own!!!”

About: I am a loving and experienced animal advocate. I graduated in 2016 with a degree in Exercise Science, and in 2021 with a Masters degree in Public Health. Between age 9-18, I was an active member in my local 4-H club, but my pet experience began long before then beginning with my very first pet; a Grey shorthair named Smokey! I have owned 5 dogs, 4 cats, and 3 horses since age 7. Currently, I have a thoroughbred horse named Ray, a husky mix and two cats. I even had a hedgehog at one time! I have extensive experience with many animals of all shapes and sizes. The first thing that attracts me to a person while out and about is their dog! I am flexible and have super reliable transportation (my own vehicle). I love all animals and I treat them as my own. Feel free to ask any questions or inquire about future care of your furry friends! Prior to beginning my current job, I had been exclusively working with animals, management and care, including two farms with horses, goats, cats, chickens, and dogs. I currently work a very flexible schedule, where I work from home 3/5 days a week. My weekends are generally free when I am not traveling for one of my other side hustles! The remainder of my time is open for me to enjoy my own pets and be a resource for other owners who need their furry friends taken care of. I do not offer in home boarding out of enhanced safety precautions with my own dog. I limit how many bookings I have at once so I can dedicate time to getting to know your pets and spending adequate time with them. I will never bring another animal with me for a drop in/walk visit. I am also very experienced in wound/injury care.

“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!”
“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!”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with Marco and Polo! From the moment we dropped them off, we felt completely comfortable knowing they were in caring and loving hands. She kept us updated, treated them like family, and clearly paid attention to their individual personalities and needs. Marco and Polo came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for — which says everything. Sarah went above and beyond, and her kindness and professionalism truly stood out. It’s hard to find someone you can fully trust with your pets, but Sarah made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and attentive sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you again, Sarah, for taking such wonderful care of our boys!”
“The perfect choice! Lilian was pleasant from beginning to end and willing to answer any questions we have! The updates on our pup were truly appreciated! We would certainly recommend.”
“CiCi and Nick took such good care of my pup while we were traveling. They were very flexible and made sure everything went extremely smoothly. He instantly seemed right at home with them. They sent updates and photos everyday and from the goofy smile on his face it looked like he was having the time of his life. They had plenty of space for him to run around and he very quickly made friends with their adorable Dalmatian. I will definitely be using them again in the future!”
“This was our first time boarding our baby Zoey and everything was perfect! Megan communicated with me and sent me pictures and videos everyday while we were away. I am very pleased with her services and will rebook with her again!”
“We are so happy with how well our three dogs were cared for by Tanita and her family. It was our first stay with them and all went very well. We'll be back.”
“Alicia and Randy are wonderful pet hosts!!! The care, attention, professionalism, follow up, and the love they have for their furry clients are just a few examples of superior work. You can instantly tell that they have a genuine love for animals, my Lola was treated with love and great care. I recommend Alicia to anyone that is looking for a safe and loving place for their pets stay. Thank you a million times Alicia, Randy, and their pets Cruz and Azalea for opening your house for Lola.”
“Kelly was such a relief with helping us on a last-minute boarding over the Christmas weekend. As it was our first time using rover, she was very good at calming my concerns and making sure I understood how everything would happen. She was even kind enough to send pictures while we were away. The whole experience was so much better than the typical kennel setup - not sure we’ll even think of anything but Rover and Kelly next time.”
“Kerry and her family took amazing care of my dog Briggs while I was out of town. I got loads of adorable pictures, and he was returned groomed and fluffy with a new bandana. I highly recommend them and will be reaching out again when I travel.”
“When I picked up Jackson, I was not sure he wanted to leave his vacation with Kathryn and her wonderful family! Sure he was excited to see us, but, then he laid down next to Kathryn as if he was feeling pretty comfortable at her home! She sent photos and write ups daily and this made me feel so much better about leaving him in her care. It was like he knew the family forever! This was the first time we went away without him in 8 years so I was a bit anxious about leaving. I would have no problems leaving him again if I have another opportunity to do so. I highly recommend Kathryn and I know he was very happy being there and well cared for. He enjoyed his daily walks and never missed a meal and perhaps, Me!!!! If there were 10 stars I would click everyone of them!”

We would definitely book with them again as it was obvious Loki had lots of fun and felt comfortable with them. Thanks so much Giovanni & Vanessa you guys are awesome!”
