“I had an excellent experience with Pat and Bee. They truly cared for my dog as if it were their own, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I especially appreciated the daily photo updates and how quickly they responded to any questions I had about my dog’s day. Their large backyard was a huge plus—my dog had plenty of space to play, explore, and have fun. It’s clear they provide a safe, loving, and engaging environment for pets. I will definitely be booking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!”
“Gisel and her family took great care of my girl Kola. Kola had a case of severely itchy paws pop up the day before we were set to leave town. I was able to get some meds from the vet before we left. I let Gisel know what was going on with Kola, as she was licking and chewing her paws and they were very red. I kept socks on her paws and gave her Benadryl in between the meds from the vet. Gisel also kept this up for the four days Kola stayed with her family. I was so thankful and appreciative of the extra care Gisel and her family gave Kola. Kola’s itchy paws popped up so last minute and Gisel assured me she would take great care of her and she did just that! I would definitely use Gisel again for Kola!”
“Working with Megan and Jacob was a pleasure! Cooper looked like he was having a wonderful time in all the pictures they sent. Dunkin’ and the other buddies were great companions while he was there, too.”
“Had another great dog sitting experience with Jill and Chad… our Plott Hound mix, Luna, is always happy when we go on vacation because she gets to go have fun too, lol. 😂 Jill and Chad are quick to respond and always keep us abreast of anything we need to know regarding Luna’s stay and they send us photos and updates so we can see what she’s up to. I wish we lived a little closer but they are worth traveling a bit farther for. Overall a great experience and they are our go-to dog sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Finn had a great time staying with Tarina! She helped him up and down stairs and snuggled with him when he was scared of storms. She took such good care of him and I had peace of mind when I was away knowing he was in great hands. I am grateful we found her!”
“First time boarding my puppy and had to book last minute. Briana & Isaiah responded quickly and made the experience easy and stress free. I could tell quickly that was Benny in great hands! When I picked him up he had the best send off, they truly care. Will definitely book again.”
“Tania is just amazing. She did everything to make our Zoey feel at home. She even extended Zoey's stay so that we could attend to an emergency. I will be using her again, and again.”
“Molly was so easy to work with and she took such good care of our dog, Walter. I was very nervous about leaving him with someone new for the first time but she made the whole experience much better than I expected. We will absolutely book with Molly again for future boarding!”
“Sarah was AMAZING, So easy to work with, her whole family will treat your dog like their own, Teddy didn’t want to leave! Will definitely call Sarah again for any future dog sitting needs! 10/10 first time experience with rover”
About: I have had a red nose Pitbull for 15 years we just lost him after 15 years. My kids really want another dog. I feel this will be a great way to get their dog fixed as babysit other dogs. I am home all day. I'm a stay at home mom with three kids, so I will be here with the animal all day. I love to go walking I will take them with me to the trails at the park I have a fenced in yard for the dogs. I will also take them for walks. My kids would definitely play with them ball and with the rope.
“Outstanding dog sitter! My dog had a blast and Pamela C. was wonderful about documenting it through photos and sharing. Excellent communication and clearly a wonderful dog person. Highly recommend!”
“Danielle, her family and her two dogs were the best of hosts!!! Danielle works from home so she was always there to take care Juney and all of her food needs, walking needs and taking her out back to her fenced yard to play and get all the energy out. She also kept us updated every day with how she was doing and also with great pics to show the fun she was having or just relaxing. We couldn’t be happier. Danielle is awesome! I look forward to using her again for Juneau!!!”
“Constance was great for Gunner. Appreciated her keeping us updated on G. Also grateful that we were running a bit late and she was super flexible. We will use her again!”
“Steph couldn’t have been any more perfect for our dog, Remy! It was the first time we left a pet with a non-family member but I felt completely comfortable. Steph even has a doggie-sofa in her living area. I could tell from our first meet and greet that she was in tune with dog behavior. Her dogs are the sweetest hosts too! When we picked up Remy, I could just tell that she had a wonderful weekend. I really appreciate having a reliable, loving place to take Remy when needed.”
“Theresa is easily my favorite Rover of all time!!! She clearly took great care of my little one and my normally super shy pup felt right at home with no transition period. Which is a first!!! Cannot recommend her enough.”

“If I could leave more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. Mariah not only took excellent care of my 2 kittens while I was away for the holidays, but she helped save my home from a disaster. A pipe froze and burst while I was out of town and she took immediate action when she discovered the flooding in my home. She called the county water authority to have them assess the issue, ensured the main was turned off, and even brought water from her own home for my cats since there was no longer running water at my house. She offered her time and flexibility since she was local and I was out of state, and I am so grateful yo her. I could not have asked for a better person to be there. Thanks so much Mariah!”
“I have been using for a couple of times now. She is 💯 reliable and I can always count on her to giving loving far to my cat Rin. I wanted a sitter that can give lots of cuddles and love in addition to providing care ( cleaning litter, water etc). She is the person.”
“I am so grateful for Ela! My cat loves when she comes to visit, play with him, and spend time together. She intentionally built a relationship with him on the first visit and it shows, and he is a very discerning cat who won’t open up to just anyone! I appreciate Ela’s updates and pictures. She is great with feeding and cleaning the box too. It gives me so much peace of mind to know he is well cared for while I am away.”
“Angela was amazing! This was my first time using rover and I was so nervous! Still learning what works for my new baby and she provided tips, left him with a toy , sent lots of amazing pictures, and spent time playing! It made me feel good knowing he was in great hands while I travelled, will be booking again in the future.”
“Stephanie was amazing! Very professional, communicated well, and was overall very attentive with our boys. Our AC went out halfway through the week, and she helped us troubleshoot the problem from 3 states away. She also made sure to check on the cats and make sure the house wasn’t too hot without the AC. Overall, we had a great experience and we plan to book with her again for our next trips as well!!”
“Great experience with Nicolina and Patrice!! They took great care of our 4 cats and bunny even with one cat on meds and insulin shots!! Getting ready to book them again for our next trip out of town.”
“Thank you for taking care of Birdie. I was so excited she greeted you and you were able to visit during your drop in. I wasn’t sure what to expect as we never left her before…thank you for taking great care of her. It’s much appreciated.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of multiple kinds since I was 12. Mainly family animals but I would watch friends pets as well. I am currently a stay at home mom for the next 4-5 years, so I have more than enough free time on my hands at the moment. I have a huge fenced park right behind my apartments so they are able to play all day as needed. In addition to the park, I have a ton of space in my apartment and a friendly dog of my own who loves to play. I have a variety of dog/cat treats and toys!

I am committed to providing a safe, calm environment for every pet I care for.
“Tyler was great, our dog is 4 months old high energy pup who hasn’t met other dog yet. Tyler was comforted with his dogs being the first. He sent us a video of the dogs play and having a great time. We were nervous leaving him with someone for the first time but after meeting Tyler we were sure he was a perfect choice. We will definitely call on him again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a year now. I’ve been around dogs growing up: taking care of them, walking them, playing with them.

I have a nice little yard in the back and open space in the living room area. I can drive anywhere to walk the dog. We have Annie’s playground where I can walk it, or Mariners Point. What makes my place special will be the care and warm welcome the dog will receive! I’m sure that it will feel right at home!
About: Although I currently have no pets, I have had dogs and cats for over 30 years. I am recently retired and looking to fill part of my days with lots of doggy and cat snuggles. I'd love to help with your fur babies! I am retired and am available daily when I am not traveling. I am usually an early riser, so those morning walks are not a problem. If I am caring for a pet in my home, I have them on a leash when outside. In your home, I will follow your routine and all instructions you leave.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for the majority of my life. As a kid we had family dogs running around. Currently my spouse and I have a big cuddly Labrador.

My neighborhood is also quite expansive with lots of sidewalks and grass to wander around and play.

The safety and happiness of your pet is my top concern.

I’m comfortable caring for puppies, seniors, high-energy dogs, and pets who require extra patience, attention, or medical care. I have hands-on experience administering medications, including insulin for diabetic dogs, and caring for dogs with seizures and other health concerns. I understand the importance of maintaining routines and closely monitoring a pet’s health and behavior. While I’m not a professional trainer, I’ve completed training classes with my own dogs and have continued that experience by working with my mom’s dog as well. I’m comfortable reinforcing basic training, structure, and positive behaviors. I’m a stay-at-home homeschooling mom with two children (ages 4 and 9) who love dogs.

Safety, routine, and comfort are very important to me.
