“Our 2 pups had another great stay with Megan and Vincent! They love playing with the other dogs and roaming in their beautiful backyard. We love the updates and photos of them while we’re away. We will certainly book again!”
“Theo came home happy and healthy! Megan and Jacob sent daily updates with pics. Theo was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for the entire stay. I really appreciated the updates and the peace of mind knowing my pup was in such good hands. It truly felt like a home away from home. I will absolutely be bringing my dog back and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a safe, loving place for their pet!””

“Deanna is such a great dog sitter! She and her lovely family took such great care of Romee. Romee had walks, plenty of playtime—just a perfect situation. Knowing Deanna was taking care of Romee allowed me to truly relax and not worry a bit while I was out of town. I’ll be rebooking with Deanna! Absolutely recommend.”
“Pamela was wonderful with our boy Vito, she took care of him like he was her own. We got tons of pictures, she took him for walks, Also he got to run around in her fenced yard, and she followed his schedule for foods and medicines. I would use pam again for sure when we need a sitter for him. Thanks Pam!”

“This family is nothing short of amazing! They took care of Reese for five weeks this summer! And he came back to us healthy and happy. He was able to play with their dog, which is now his forever buddy and have daily walks and play time so it made me feel good to know that our baby was well taken care of.”
“Lucky had a great time with Max and Thomas. He enjoyed playing in the backyard and all the pets. Thank you and I'll definitely rebook again. I appreciate the prompt replies to my texts.”
“Fantastic people who took excellent care of my dog while I was away for work. They were very communicative and easy to work with. Also very accommodating when my work training schedule changed. Highly recommend!”
“Casey and Marwa are the most accommodating and caring dog sitters, we have ever had. They do their best to keep with the routines that Indiana knows and then add extra long walks, treats, brushing, playing, and lots of love. Their Pug Kevin is so cute and friendly. On top of that, they are super-flexible with drop off and pick up times and took Indy in on very short notice. Will definitely be back”
“This is my very first time using Rover to gin weekend did a wonderful job caring for my 2 year old cat Ninja over the weekend. Colleen’s home was clean and she’s seems to have alot of experience dealing with pets. My cat had never been around a dog before, and Colleen took the time to allow them to acquaint them and they just left each other alone, no fighting.”
About: Since 2014, I’ve cared for pets of all ages and pawsonalities — from shy kittens to spicy dogs, plus chickens, bunnies, and even a hermit crab. 🐶🐱🐔🐰🐟 Fostering over 200 pets has made me fluent in body language (pet edition). Whether your pet wants snuggles, space, or serious playtime, I tailor each visit to what makes them happiest. I’m comfortable giving medications* and teaching basic obedience. I also make the experience great for you! I’m a reliable communicator, send plenty of cute pics, and if your pet’s up for it, you’ll come home to a handmade surprise “from your pet.” *If medications are required to be given an additional fee will be negotiated and applied before the booking is confirmed. Pet care fits naturally into my routine — it’s something I genuinely enjoy! I’m available mornings, evenings, and weekends, with a flexible schedule that allows me to adapt as needed. I am able to care for about a dozen pets per week and I only book one house-sitting family at a time to ensure each pet gets my full attention. Walks and drop-ins can easily be added into my day, especially Monday through Friday. Pet care is both relaxing and rewarding for me — I love building relationships with the pets I visit, and I think they look forward to our time together just as much as I do! I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, starting by learning their pet’s established routine to ensure they feel comfy and happy. I gather all the important info — like vet contacts, emergency numbers, and where cleaning supplies live (just in case!). I’m a tidy sitter too: I take out the trash and scoop up any yard “presents” to keep things fresh. Most importantly, I listen closely to both owner and pet to discover what makes each furry friend feel safe and loved, then tailor my care to their unique personality.
“Elizabeth took great care of my dog. She gave lots of updates and was a pleasure to work with. My dog loves her and seemed so happy while she boarded with her.”
“Angelene was fantastic! She was very informative about how Hunter was doing and provided many updates and pictures. We will definitely be using her next time we need someone.”
“Okay first let me just say how nervous I was leading up to dropping of my baby boy (lol). Paris answered my 1,000 questions leading up to the drop off. I appreciated that. So the day of drop of was "effortless" she focused just on Jax to give him time to "explore", after that she updated me often with pictures and let's just say " NOT SURE IF THIS DUDE MISSED HIS MOMMA" as much as I missed him. Once I knew he was comfortable and slept all night in his crate, I knew he was good. I would 100% book with Paris AGAIN, AGAIN, and AGAIN!!”
“We love Karen! Bruno always has a great time staying with her, we use Karen’s services for him every time we go away. This time around she trimmed his nails for me which I am very very grateful for. Thanks Karen!!”

“Jennifer was wonderful! She took great care of Murry, my senior cat. She provided updates and pictures daily, which always eases my anxiety when I'm away. She stayed the full half hour for the drop-in visits, which I really appreciated. I wouldn't hesitate to use her again to care for Murry when I'm away.”
“As always, Colleen was great. Daily visits and photos to show how well my cat was being treated. Additionally, she took the job over the holidays when I really needed to go out of town for a family matter and I didn't know if I would be able to get a cat sitter. She's the best!”

“We hope that Danielle can continue to help us out with our dog. She was very responsive to our inquiries and made our first time using Rover a breeze. She took great care of our dog and we felt at ease going away for the weekend knowing Danielle was watching our pup!!”
“Mason was fantastic. Very detail-oriented when learning about our cats and was so great about cleaning up messes and making sure they got the care they needed. Came home to a clean house and happy cats!”
About: I’ve always loved caring for animals and have experience with a variety of pets! I regularly dog sit and provide dog walks, and I also have experience horse sitting. I’ve cared for smaller animals as well, including having a pet hedgehog of my own. I’m comfortable following specific routines, giving pets plenty of attention, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away! I’m currently a full-time college student, so my schedule varies by day. On school days, I’ll typically be away from home for about 6–8 hours at a time. I’m available around my class schedule for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, and I have more flexibility on days when I don’t have classes. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and find a schedule that works best for both of us! I care for every pet as if they were my own! I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of exercise and playtime, and lots of attention and affection.

“Stephanie was amazing. She filled in when I messaged her last minute because my original sitter canceled within 24 hours of my departure. She gave thorough updates and made me feel comfortable while missing my babies. They were well cared for in my absence.”
“Trisha took excellent care of my very timid & shy cat, Stella, as well as my house. She sent twice daily updates along with pictures. My girl seemed very content & chill upon my return. Would definitely recommend!”

“Beauty and her pack are wonderful! I can’t recommend Beauty enough to any pet owner! Our dog Freya had an amazing time and Beauty was very flexible when our plan changed to a later pick up time. She even offered to let Freya stay the night if that worked better for us. I can’t thank Beauty and the pack enough for giving us peace of mind when we can’t be with Freya!”

About: Hi, I’m Olivia! I’ve loved animals since I was a child and have spent years caring for both my own dogs and the pets of family and friends.

Whether your dog needs someone gentle and patient or an energetic companion for long walks, runs, and playtime, I’m here to help. I have experience caring for dogs with special needs, including those with health conditions such as seizures, and I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. My yard is equipped with 2 acres with creeks and waterfalls running through, I will make sure to keep your pup is fulfilled. I’ve also trained my own dogs in basic obedience, including commands like sit, stay, and heel, and I’m happy to reinforce your dog’s training during our time together. Your pet will be treated like family while they’re in my care. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy until you’re back home! I’m currently unemployed so I will have all the time in the world to play with your babies. Play time is full time around here! I have lots of toys and fun activities to keep your dog happy and engaged. Whether it’s going for walks, playing fetch, or simply providing companionship, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog like family and strive to provide a fun, caring, and stress free experience.
About: Certified Dog Trainer & Professional Pet Spoiler I’ve been caring for animals professionally for over 10 years—basically, I’m the Mary Poppins of pets (minus the umbrella, plus a lot more treats). I work remotely, which means I have plenty of time to shower your furry, feathery, or finned friends with attention while you’re away. I share my life with my own dog, Roux, who would need to join me for overnight house sitting—she’s well-mannered, charming, and believes she’s the CEO of the operation. Specialties include: • Raising & training puppies (basic commands, potty, & crate training) • Senior pet care • Dogs with anxiety • Administering medications • Cat care (yes, even the sassy ones) • Rodent care (mice, guinea pigs, bunnies—you name it) • Basic fish tank maintenance (I’ve never lost a guppy on my watch) I work remotely which gives me some flexibility to care for your pup. I prefer overnight stays at the clients home with the ability to come home to work during the day but may be able to bring my work to you. I care for my clients pets exactly the same as their owner and better! I love them like my own. An in home pet sitter is a great way to keep your pets routine so they are less stressed while you are away.

About: My husband and I love dogs! Our dog, Alfred, is like one of our children. We have two young girls who have grown up with Alfred. We live in a single family home with a fully fenced back yard on 3/4 of an acre. We love being outside and frequently play in the back yard and go for walks. I work from home, so I will be here all day with your pup except for when I drop off and pick up our girls from daycare. We took a little break from watching dogs through rover due to moving homes and having a new born but we are back and excited to watch your pup. Please let me know if you have any special requests!
“Emma was so sweet with Puddin' - just the kind of energy that makes my nervous standard comfortable. She was also very flexible with me as I needed to drop off Puddin' way later than originally planned.”
About: What sets me apart is my six years of experience caring for my rescue dog, who is sensitive and shy. This has taught me patience, gentle handling, and how to create a calm environment tailored to each dog’s unique needs. I’m especially good at working with dogs that require extra reassurance and care. Working part-time from home allows me to keep a flexible routine for the pets I care for. I’m home most of the day, so I can follow their schedule closely — from walks and feeding times to playtime and rest — making sure they always feel safe and loved. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, pets are always supervised, have access to fresh water, and enjoy a calm, pet-friendly environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely and make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times.
“Our golden retriever puppy, Loki had the BEST time in Tarina’s care! He was extremely comfortable there and was treated like part of the family. We are excited to have Tarina watch him again soon! :)”
“Cali was amazing with Walter! It was his (and our) first time having an in home daycare provider and Cali could not have been better! Between the pictures and her reassuring nature, we feel so lucky that Walter got to stay with her! Thank you!”

About: Born and raised with a love of all the furry friends! This is my full time thing and I care for horses too!

My sister and cousin are also both vet techs that are close easy contacts if ever I have a need or question. I am detailed, organized and a patient Pet Sitter.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over five years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I was the proud owner of a Great Dane for three years who reached her senior years in my care. At nearly 145 lbs and living with severe arthritis and mobility challenges, she taught me the patience, attentiveness, and extra care that senior and giant-breed dogs can require. I’m very comfortable with large dogs and understand when they need a slower pace, extra assistance, and plenty of patience. I currently have a happy, energetic 2-year-old Golden Retriever, so I’m equally comfortable with younger, high-energy dogs who love walks and playtime! I’m also a devoted cat mom to my 3-year-old rescue cat, whom I adopted at just 12 weeks old. Every pet has their own personality and needs, and I know how much trust it takes to leave them in someone else’s care. I’ll always treat your furry family members with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Hi! I’m Claudia, a lifelong animal lover and proud pet mom. I work from home full-time as a Project Manager, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with your pets throughout the day. I’m also an early riser and typically start my mornings with a workout class, so early morning walks and visits are no problem! My flexible routine allows me to provide dependable, attentive care while working around your pet’s normal schedule. Your pet’s safety and well-being will always be my top priority. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a beloved family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, respect any special instructions, and provide plenty of love, attention, and exercise while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: I've taken care of pets for as long as I can remember, from farm animals to rodents, cats and dogs, reptiles & fish and even a deer! I've taken care of senior pets and very young pets!

“Our 2 pups had another great stay with Megan and Vincent! They love playing with the other dogs and roaming in their beautiful backyard. We love the updates and photos of them while we’re away. We will certainly book again!”
“Theo came home happy and healthy! Megan and Jacob sent daily updates with pics. Theo was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for the entire stay. I really appreciated the updates and the peace of mind knowing my pup was in such good hands. It truly felt like a home away from home. I will absolutely be bringing my dog back and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a safe, loving place for their pet!””

“Deanna is such a great dog sitter! She and her lovely family took such great care of Romee. Romee had walks, plenty of playtime—just a perfect situation. Knowing Deanna was taking care of Romee allowed me to truly relax and not worry a bit while I was out of town. I’ll be rebooking with Deanna! Absolutely recommend.”
“Pamela was wonderful with our boy Vito, she took care of him like he was her own. We got tons of pictures, she took him for walks, Also he got to run around in her fenced yard, and she followed his schedule for foods and medicines. I would use pam again for sure when we need a sitter for him. Thanks Pam!”

“Fantastic people who took excellent care of my dog while I was away for work. They were very communicative and easy to work with. Also very accommodating when my work training schedule changed. Highly recommend!”
“Casey and Marwa are the most accommodating and caring dog sitters, we have ever had. They do their best to keep with the routines that Indiana knows and then add extra long walks, treats, brushing, playing, and lots of love. Their Pug Kevin is so cute and friendly. On top of that, they are super-flexible with drop off and pick up times and took Indy in on very short notice. Will definitely be back”
“This is my very first time using Rover to gin weekend did a wonderful job caring for my 2 year old cat Ninja over the weekend. Colleen’s home was clean and she’s seems to have alot of experience dealing with pets. My cat had never been around a dog before, and Colleen took the time to allow them to acquaint them and they just left each other alone, no fighting.”
About: Since 2014, I’ve cared for pets of all ages and pawsonalities — from shy kittens to spicy dogs, plus chickens, bunnies, and even a hermit crab. 🐶🐱🐔🐰🐟 Fostering over 200 pets has made me fluent in body language (pet edition). Whether your pet wants snuggles, space, or serious playtime, I tailor each visit to what makes them happiest. I’m comfortable giving medications* and teaching basic obedience. I also make the experience great for you! I’m a reliable communicator, send plenty of cute pics, and if your pet’s up for it, you’ll come home to a handmade surprise “from your pet.” *If medications are required to be given an additional fee will be negotiated and applied before the booking is confirmed. Pet care fits naturally into my routine — it’s something I genuinely enjoy! I’m available mornings, evenings, and weekends, with a flexible schedule that allows me to adapt as needed. I am able to care for about a dozen pets per week and I only book one house-sitting family at a time to ensure each pet gets my full attention. Walks and drop-ins can easily be added into my day, especially Monday through Friday. Pet care is both relaxing and rewarding for me — I love building relationships with the pets I visit, and I think they look forward to our time together just as much as I do! I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, starting by learning their pet’s established routine to ensure they feel comfy and happy. I gather all the important info — like vet contacts, emergency numbers, and where cleaning supplies live (just in case!). I’m a tidy sitter too: I take out the trash and scoop up any yard “presents” to keep things fresh. Most importantly, I listen closely to both owner and pet to discover what makes each furry friend feel safe and loved, then tailor my care to their unique personality.
“Elizabeth took great care of my dog. She gave lots of updates and was a pleasure to work with. My dog loves her and seemed so happy while she boarded with her.”
“We love Karen! Bruno always has a great time staying with her, we use Karen’s services for him every time we go away. This time around she trimmed his nails for me which I am very very grateful for. Thanks Karen!!”
“Couldn’t have asked for a better Sitter for Habibi while I was doing business nearby. Emma is a true professional who deeply cares for dogs. She also has a gorgeous big yard that just screams out for having a dog running around in it. Not a big fan of business piece, but I look forward to the next opportunity to have Habibi stay with Emma.”
“Samantha was great! She sent photos to us and took amazing care of our two pups. She was also very flexible when our needs changed. Will definitely use her services again in the future.”
