“Marna did a fantastic job with our two senior chihuahuas. It was evident that they were happy and well cared for while they stayed with her. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone and would most definitely rebook in the future!”

“I couldn't be happier with the care my dog received! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that Sridevi truly loves animals and treats them like part of her own family. Her home is warm, clean, and perfectly set up for dogs to feel safe and comfortable. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Baxter came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for- honestly I think he had a little vacation of his own. I would absolutely recommend Sri to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Anne is the best! She very obviously cares a lot about all dogs, but especially the ones in her care. She sent me lots of updates, photos, and videos - possibly more than she normally might because this was the first time I’d ever been apart from my dog and was a little nervous! She asked me great questions and was very considerate; for example asking first if it would be ok to give my dog a certain treat. She’s very mindful of animal interaction and knows each dog and situation are different. This was my first Rover experience and I hope they’re all as good as this was. Thank you Anne!”

“Elisabeth was the absolute best! Lots of pictures and great communication- my doggo had the biggest smile in every picture and video. She was very gracious accommodating my last minute request and my doggo was so happy at pick up. We will definitely be booking again with her!”

“I’m so happy we found Sergey at the last minute. My two dogs stayed with Sergey’s for six nights. They came home tired, happy, and clean. Sergey was extremely flexible with our timing when our travel was delayed. I would not hesitate to recommend Sergey as a pet sitter.”

“great family who very clearly loves having a dog in the home. they treated my girl like it was her home. very open to let her wander through the house freely and vicky/her husband are very communicative during the stay texting updates each day. would recommend and use them again!”

“Christina took great care of our dog! She provided fantastic photos and updates so we felt at ease. It’s clear how much she loves animals; highly recommend and will use her again in the future.”

“Alicia and Dave were great with Cosmo. He was very comfortable there with them and their dog, and they were great at giving him his medications. Always tough to find someone to watch these dogs with some medical issues, but they didn’t miss a beat. Loved getting the picture updates.”
“Kelly was a great sitter for my dog, was very caring and patient and made him feel at home. He likes a lot of attention and she was great with him and sent daily updates. I highly recommend Kelly!”

“Molly was able to accommodate a last minute request to watch our dog Sadie. We could not have been happier with the care she received. She enjoyed playing with Molly's 2 pups and barely noticed we had left her. ”

“Kathleen made the process of booking easy and was very accommodating when I needed to modify the reservation slightly. She offered to do a meet and greet with my dog before the drop off. All went smoothly during the two-night stay. I am grateful for the care she provided.”

“Stout enjoyed his visit with Simon. He was flexible about us changing our plans too. He was able to add extra dates which helped us enormously. Thank you!!”

“Amy was wonderful with my poodle, accepting the challenge to tire him out by the end of the day. She is courteous and easygoing, and has a large fenced in yard for the dogs to play. I would definitely hope to schedule with Any again.”

“Claudia and Jason were an absolute lifesaver. We needed a last minute sitter while visiting Maine and they came through. Drop off was a breeze and I knew Chase was in good hands. Regular updates including photos reassured myself and the kids that Chase was doing well. I can’t thank them enough and I can honestly attest that your dog is in good hands with them. I would absolutely without hesitation use them again if we’re in town.”

“Emily, Kieran, and their lovely dog Leon are absolutely amazing. They took fantastic care of my pup Sally and made her feel like she was part of the family. They’re communicative, thoughtful, and absolutely rockstar sitters. Thank you!”

“Alma took such good care of our pup while we were away for the weekend! He got lots of exercise and had so much fun playing with Birdie. Alma had a great setup at home and her communication was top notch.”

“Our dog, Maggie was happy with Abigail and Neil. They sent a few photos. She has a lot of energy and I'm sure she kept their dog, Molly busy. I appreciate them allowing Maggie to roam free in their home and on furniture.”

“Elvis had an AWESOME time with Christine and I felt very comfortable leaving him with her. She frequently sent photos of him and he always looked comfortable and happy. I will definitely be bringing Elvis to Christine again!”

“Justin was fantastic! He was able to take my pup on short notice and did an amazing job. My dog had 5 different daily medications and Justin handled it with amazing care and communication. Highly recommend Justin for your next Rover!”


About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. I grew up with a cat who was much more than a pet—because I didn’t have any brothers or sisters, she was my best friend and constant companion. Later, after meeting my husband, who had a dog, I discovered how much joy dogs bring and how different, fun, and rewarding it is to spend time with them. Now that my own children are older and more independent, I finally have some time to do something I’ve wanted for a while: care for other people’s dogs. Spending time with animals truly makes me happy, and I would love to give your dog the same love, attention, and care that I would give my own. I’ve looked after dogs in my home and understand that every pet is unique. Some dogs love long walks and playtime, while others just want a quiet companion nearby. I’ll happily follow your dog’s routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. What really sets me apart is how much I genuinely care. I pay close attention to the little details, carefully follow your instructions, and treat every pet like family. I’ll also send regular photos and updates, so you’ll always know your furry friend is happy and well cared for. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pet. I’m available for afternoon walks during the week, as well as boarding. Your dog will have regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. I always do my best to follow your pet’s usual schedule, so they feel comfortable and at home while you’re away. My home is a safe, pet-friendly environment where dogs are treated like part of the family. They will have plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and a cozy place to rest. . My children are older. They’re gentle and respectful, and they’ll happily play with your dog if that’s something your dog enjoys. I’ll also send regular photo updates, so you’ll always know your pet is happy and well cared for.

“Stacey was incredible! She sent so many photos of my cat while I was on vacation, just as I had asked. She brought our packages in and even brought extra treats for my sweet boy! Thank you for giving him love and cuddles! I will absolutely reach out to Stacey again in the future when needed!”

“Katrina was amazing! I had her watch my two cats while I was away at a wedding, and she made the whole experience completely stress free. My cats can be a bit needy and require feeding twice a day, but she handled everything perfectly and stuck to their routine. She sent daily updates and pictures, which I really appreciated it made being away so much easier knowing they were in good hands. You can tell she genuinely cares about the animals she’s watching. I came home to two happy, well cared for cats. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!”


“Thank you Madeleine! Maggie loves spending time with you and I know she’s well taken care of while we are away. We appreciate your thorough photos and can tell that Maggie has had a lot of love. Thank you!”


“Hanna was great :) was super flexible and understanding when we had to do a last minute key drop off. My kitties were well taken care of and I had zero concerns. Thank you for taking such good care of my older kitty babies 🖤”


“Our senior cat absolutely loved snuggling with Paige (there was drooling involved) and we loved the peace of mind we got from knowing that her medications were being given on a consistent schedule. It made our vacation so much more enjoyable to have Paige providing all that TLC.”

“Melisa is great! Her drop in updates always brighten our day. Our kitty clearly trusts and likes her because he gets on her lap for cuddles. He does NOT do that with just anyone. She’s dependable and goes the extra mile every time she visits. Can not say enough good things about Melissa.”

“Jesika was a fantastic, caring, and communicative cat sitter! I really appreciated all of her updates, especially because my cat needs two daily medications. She even cleaned up a huge mess my cat made in between visits, not to mention she watered my plants because they were looking thirsty!! It was such a relief to have someone trustworthy and thoughtful looking after Rey while I was out of town for Thanksgiving. I highly recommend Jesika and look forward to booking with her again in the future!”

“So sweet and understanding when I miscommunicated instructions to her about accessing my place. She waited around to hear back from me about where the key was- which she had no obligation to do. She played with my kitty and sent lots of photos, which was a big comfort to me as I always worry about him when I’m away. She’s great and very sweet :)”

“Nishat is kind, professional, and reliable. I have two cats, one of whom is high-needs, skittish, and receives many medications. Nishat handles it all with aplomb!”

“Sera did a fantastic job taking care of our cat while we were gone! She sent a ton of great photos and updates. We would be thrilled if Sera is available to watch our cat next time we are out of town.”


“Priscilla is excellent! She took great care of my cats, remembered their quirks, and they were thrilled to see her and spend some time with her. Will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Katey provided great care for our cat while we were away for the holidays. She cuddled and played with him to his heart’s content. She was on time every day and sent many pictures and updates to ease our minds. Definitely recommend!”
“Anna was so wonderful. She watched our cat while we went away for the 4th of July. She was incredibly communicative and sent wonderful pictures/updates. Would recommend Anna to anyone looking for a kind and reliable sitter!”

“Lyndsay was great! This was our first time trusting someone who isn’t family to care for our cat Jose. We were a little nervous, and after the first drop in visit we completely relaxed. Jose is shy, but sweet and was comfortable with her immediately. Lyndsay sent photos and a report at each visit, she’s very fast to respond to messages. It couldn’t have gone smoother When we need a sitter again we will be reaching out to book Lyndsay.”


“Lisa was so loving and attentive with our cats! She was immediately in tune with each of their (very) different personalities and understood the needs of both. We had been anxious about ensuring one of our cats got his newly prescribed medication but Lisa eased our fears and made sure to give us a thorough recap each evening. We would highly recommend Lisa to care for your pets and will book with her again for future needs.”


“Heather's calm and tender care immediately put my cat Rasmo (and me) at ease, and they became fast friends right way. She was great about keeping in touch and providing pictures. I'd hire her again in a heartbeat!”


About: I’ve had my own cat since she was 5, which has given me hands-on experience understanding feline behavior, routines, and personalities. Through caring for her, I’ve learned how important patience, consistency, and a calm approach are in helping cats feel safe and comfortable. I’m familiar with reading body language, respecting boundaries, and creating a low-stress environment tailored to each cat’s needs. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or independent, I provide attentive, gentle care to make sure they feel secure and well cared for while you’re away.

“i would definitely book simon again! he was lovely and very accommodating. he gave a thorough report when i picked up my pet who came home calm and taken care of. i was also impressed by his own lovely, and nicely trained dog. that says a lot!”


“Absolutely wonderful pet sitter. Marna was calm and patient with our little chihuahua, Miika. Miika was happy and relaxed when she was picked up. I highly recommend Marna and will definitely be using her services again.”

“Alma was great with Reynard and sent photos and updates throughout the day. Reynard and Birdy got along well. Very happy that Alma was able to accommodate a last minute booking and we will certainly book her again!”

“Andrew is a true gem! We flew in for a weekend of family events and Andrew picked up our standard poodle and took great care of him! I felt very secure that Jasper was in good hands!”


“This was our first time leaving our newly adopted dog at someone else's home, and we felt anxious about it, of course. But, all of that anxiousness melted away after meeting Joshua and Ionna! Super nice folks, with very calm demeanors. Our sweet new pup, Olive, can be timid around new people and dogs, and they were very mindful of that, and very understanding. Their two pups, Charlie and Emma, are lovely, happy goofballs! We had a great experience with our Miss Olive staying there, and we plan to continue requesting doggie daycare with them whenever needed!”

“Lindsay is fantastic. She has been a lifesaver with our new pup. He always comes home happy and tired, and Lindsay always gives great updates so I know exactly how our pup has been throughout the day. I couldn’t recommend her more.”


About: Experience, work remotely, flexible schedule, own dogs in the past, able to walk frequently, able to be active with dog if needed. I am very active with my dog and would love to extend to the dogs I’m looking after :) I'm currently working remote and have the flexibility to take your pet out frequently and give them lots of energy. I have a lot of experience in the field I have a friendly 5 year old dog that loves other dogs. We are quite flexible and loving to our pets in the home and they are sure to feel comfortable
“Emily and Kieran took a very good care of our dog! They were very accomodating even on the last minute notice, and were very flexible on the timing, which we really appreciate :) They took Ohsam out for a walk several times, gave lots of loves and cuddles. I can see Ohsam had a great time with the family! Would recommend them during our next visit in Portland. Thank you!!”

“My Rosie first met Matt when his partner was her primary sitter and she has been obsessed with him for well over a year. His wonderful partner is no longer dogsitting in the area so Matt joined Rover himself bc he loved the dogs so much and I could not be more grateful. He keeps her active enough that Rosie is tired when she gets home but most importantly I appreciate knowing she’s going to be loved on all day. Matt is flexible and super communicative plus he takes great pictures - I would recommend him without any hesitation.”

“Kylie took excellent care of Rosa and made sure she felt comfortable during her stay. She was also easy to communicate and flexible with scheduling my last minute request! I would definitely use Kylie again in the future.”

About: I’ve been an animal lover for my whole life! I have experience with dogs of many sizes and breeds, cats, cows, and chickens. Walking dogs is one of my favorite things to do. I have worked for a dog walking company for the past 3 years. Also, I have worked on multiple farms where I’ve cared for farm animals and dogs/cats. I will care for your pet as if they were my own! I’m working a remote part-time job which leaves me with plenty of time to walk dogs throughout the day and in the evening. Additionally, I have a very flexible schedule on the weekends. If I am caring for your pet in your home I will make sure to follow whatever schedule you have for them. I will take them out to play often and give them lots of love.
“Annie was fantastic! Winnie is not the easiest of dogs and Annie was gentle and patient with her. She found ways around things that Winnie doesn't enjoy, like being picked up, which is necessary because she can't do stairs.”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely love caring for them. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel happy and secure. From energetic puppies to independent cats and senior pets needing extra attention, I treat every animal like family and make their well-being my top priority. 🐾❤️ Hey there) I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to care of your pets. Flexible schedule, overnight care and walking available. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, loving, and secure environment where pets can feel at home. I follow any routines, feeding schedules, and special instructions you provide, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of family and friends since I was in my teens, but more extensively in college and since. For 3 years I boarded and sat for three different family friends. I’ve personally helped raise 3 dogs and 2 cats. I’ve even helped herd sheep and tamed alpacas! I work nearly full-time as a server at a restaurant, so Wednesday to Saturday night I’m unavailable for somewhere between 6-9 hours on those days. When I have my off days I’m usually at home or out for a walk. I’m usually efficient with my errands and have extensive free time on off days. My apartment is a one bedroom, so if I’m not playing around the apartment with the pet, I’d want to bring them on a walk or to the park. I have a very comfortable bedroom conducive to nap time, and I live in the heart of Old Port. Whenever I am with pets in my house I am always looking to set up a cozy space for them to relax with blankets, pillows, their favorite toys. I try to make them feel like a proper guest in my home like anyone else. My apartment is always very quiet despite being downtown, but I would hope to find activities we could do in and around Portland to help keep them active and entertained.
About: I’ve cared for dogs while their families are away, providing lots of attention, regular walks, and dependable care. Your dog’s comfort, safety, and well-being are always my top priority. I’m available most days and prefer to schedule in advance when possible. However, I can often accommodate same-day requests and strive to provide prompt, reliable service. Pets are cared for with close attention to detail and provided comfortable spaces to relax. After each stay, everything is thoroughly cleaned to ensure a fresh, safe environment for every dog.

“Matthew is great, and I already booked him again. When I come home, my dog Pilot is happy and freshly walked. It is making my surgery recovery much less stressful. I really appreciate his updates after walks!”

“Melissa, went above and beyond for us. I can’t express enough how incredible and trusting my experience was. The stress of not being able to be home with our anxious pup was completely subsided because I knew he was getting the best possible care and love. She was so mindful of his personality along with the weather/humidity and our stress on top of that. She was so communicative, attentive and again just went above and beyond to help us all while we were in a pinch. I’m so grateful I connected with her on Rover!! We 100% would reach out to her in the future for our sitter needs.”

“Katey has been so great with Enzo. She gained his trust almost immediately and, in all the pictures you can really tell he’s really at ease with him. She’s also a great communicator and responds promptly. I only wish I’d found her sooner!”

“Anna made Nahla fall in love with her in about 90 seconds. I think Anna has a presence and a command that is so comfortable around dogs, I love that she gave us notes and pictures via the Rover card, we haven't had that level of communication before.”

“Emily is great! I have complete peace of mind knowing Chloe is in good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and dependable to care for their dog!”

“In NEED of a dog walker while recovering from foot surgery, I found Alejandro here on Rover. I chose Alejandro after reading many walker profiles and one review stood out which ultimately helped me make the decision. Alejandro has been very easy to work with, I booked for reoccurring walks for the time I am incapacitated, he has a planned vacation in the middle of my needs. We worked out a schedule that would meet both of our needs. After a few days of being laid up, no one was helping with my pups morning walks. Asked Alejandro if he was available to do mornings and he could! What good luck?! Communication has been great, pup is panting and happy when he gets home, and the rate fits my budget. Thank you Alejandro! Enjoy your vacation and we will see you when you return!”

“Mae is fantastic! She’s amazing with my 80 pound shepherd and little golden doodle. She was open to whatever routine was best for my dogs with ball playing and walks, and is a positive, helpful part of our daily routine. Highly recommend!”

“Jesika was such a huge help, always showed up with a smile, my puppy was overjoyed to see her and she was very communicative through our time. Would definitely hire her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs at all stages of life. My experience ranges from young pets to senior care. It’s been an honor. I work part-time from home and have a flexible schedule. I live in close proximity to multiple Portland Trails and our home fronts the Fore River and boarders a sanctuary. I have a fenced yard and a friendly Yellow Lab named Uma, who lives for her next play date. She is respectful of senior dogs and puppies too. There’s lots of room to run around and play.
“Thank you for taking the time for a meet & greet before we confirmed dog walking. Leo and I both appreciate the care you provide for him and the prompt responses when coordinating times for dog walks”


About: I have previously worked at a doggy daycare and am ready to start my journey with individual clients! Throughout my life I have always been the family member or friend who was always asked to watch pets so I have plenty of experience with many species of animals! I am a recent college graduate and I am using the summer to build my career so I have plenty of time to look after your pets! Through my previous job at a doggy daycare, I have gained experience working with many different breeds of dogs and temperaments. I am also fear free certified so I use non-forceful or fearful tactics in handling pups!
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life—from Cavapoos to Corgis to Wheaten Terriors to Doodles, to Boxers! I’ve also had the pleasure of having a Goldendoodle of my own as well! My sweet pup was in an accident and required lots of specific care such as wound care and medication administration for many months. I am a very patient and dedicated pet sitter and will treat your pet like my own. I’ll keep them safe, make sure they get the attention they need, and assure that you get the updates you crave while away from your bestie. I absolutely love animals and I also know how challenging it can be to have peace of mind while maintaining your life responsibilities outside of your furry friends—I hope to have the opportunity to take that stress off of your plate! I’m currently in grad school for Speech Language Pathology (classes are online until January 2027) and work per diem at the hospital. I have two shifts per week serving at a restaurant in Portland as well, they are typically 6-8 hour shifts so if booked for an overnight, there may be a day or two that I am away for that amount of time! Otherwise, my schedule is super flexible and perfect for that mid day potty and play break! Safety is first! You tell me how you like things to go in your home and what makes your pet the most comfortable and I’ll make sure it happens! Let me know if your pet has any anxieties in public and I’ll keep in mind ways to keep them happy and calm on walkies!
About: I love animals with my whole heart. I’ve had a sweet dog of my own for the past 10 years whom is truly my best friend. Other than my own, I’ve taken care of pets for friends & family for as long as I can remember. My relationship with animals on a whole is a special one for I respect them & am interested in what their behavior is trying to convey to us humans. I have previous volunteer experience at Antler Ridge Wildlife sanctuary in NJ, as well as previous experience in a VCA animal hospital as a tech assistant. I’m responsible, dependable, & very compassionate. I have a deep love for animals & aspire to one day have a nonprofit animal rescue. If your animal is with me, I will treat them with kindness. I know what it’s like to have to work long days away from our furry family members, personally it stresses me out. I would love to be able to ease that feeling of worry or guilt for you & be there to give your dog or cat some love! My schedule at the moment is a little all over the place. Typically every other week I have time off & can offer daily walks, & drop ins. Weekends I can typically do walks & drop ins as well. Mornings, afternoons, & evenings work when I have time off. I don’t have a fenced in yard & don’t plan to board your animals at my home. But when they are in my care at your home or on a walk I will make sure they are always safe. I’ll always check in with you before caring for your animal to see what sorts of situations may be stressful for them/ what their personal restrictions are. If anything ever seems off with your pet when I see them I will notify you immediately. Clear communication is key for safety!
About: Thank you for checking out my rover profile! My name is Emma! I have a huge passion for animals and have experience working in doggy daycare! I love breeds of all sizes and shapes and use Pawsitive reinforcement training. I’m always very adaptable base on each individual animal. I’m always prepared for treats unless they’re provided. I look forward to meeting your pets and will treat them like they are my own. Please reaching out for additional information ! My schedule is flexible since I currently work part-time, which allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. I’m available Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays from 9am–3pm, as well as Friday afternoons. This schedule allows me to give pets plenty of attention, exercise, and care during visits or house sitting. I always do my best to work with each owner’s routine so their pet’s day stays as normal and comfortable as possible. I believe every pet deserves care that’s tailored just for them. I use positive reinforcement, patience, and lots of encouragement to help pets feel safe, confident, and happy. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level so I can adapt my care to what they need—whether that’s energetic playtime, calm companionship, or maintaining training cues. I’m also happy to house sit in your home so your pet can stay relaxed in their familiar environment. I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, and I provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pup is doing.
About: We love taking care of dogs! We are the go-to pet sitters for our friends and family, and now that we are up in Portland, would love to be the go-to sitter for your pup! We've cared for a range of dogs, from puppies to senior pups, and all sizes in between. We have a wonderful 5-year old rescue pup named Dill. He is extremely sweet and does well with other dogs at the dog park and obedience classes. We request that all dogs that stay with us for doggy day care or boarding are friendly with other dogs. We do have space to keep pups separated for breaks, if needed. We both currently work full time jobs away from home, Mon - Friday 9-5, so would not be able to care for dogs that can’t be left alone for the workday. We would still take your pup out for a lunchtime potty break! During the week, our evenings are typically spent at home and the weekends are usually open! We currently live in a large 1 bed apartment with our rescue dog Dill. Your pup would be the only additional dog that we care for and we would introduce them to our pup at a comfortable pace! We have a partially-enclosed backyard and are near the Western Promenade for adventures.

About: I’ve been dog-sitting for families in Portland on and off for the past two years, along with caring for dogs in my own family. Through these experiences, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and ages, from playful puppies and energetic younger dogs to senior dogs who need extra patience, gentleness, and care. I’m attentive, loving, and gentle, with a strong ability to read dogs’ cues and recognize what they need to feel comfortable and happy. I understand that younger dogs may need plenty of activity and playtime, while older dogs often benefit from a calm, patient sitter who moves at their pace and provides a warm, reassuring presence. Every pet and family has their own routines, preferences, and expectations. I’m committed to following your instructions carefully and caring for your dog the way you would, so they feel safe, loved, and right at home! I work remotely from 9–5 Monday through Friday, so I’m available every evening and on weekends for pet care. Since I work from home, I’m also happy to provide longer daytime stays or overnight care, as long as I’m able to work from your home. My flexible schedule allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I prioritize safety, comfort, and clear communication for every pet in my care. Before a booking, I like to learn about each pet’s routine, personality, dietary needs, medications, exercise preferences, and any potential concerns. I follow the pet parent’s instructions carefully and keep a close eye on pets so I can respond quickly if anything seems unusual. In a client’s home, I treat the space with the same care and respect I would my own. I keep doors, gates, and other escape routes secure, maintain a clean environment, and make sure pets have access to fresh water, food, and a comfortable place to rest. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident while they’re away!

“My dogs appeared to have the best time with Heidi. They both came back happy and tired and, surprisingly, my sweet Lady wasn't big mad about staying with someone. Highly Recommended.”


“Marna did a fantastic job with our two senior chihuahuas. It was evident that they were happy and well cared for while they stayed with her. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone and would most definitely rebook in the future!”

Her home is warm, clean, and perfectly set up for dogs to feel safe and comfortable. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Baxter came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for- honestly I think he had a little vacation of his own.

“Anne is the best! She very obviously cares a lot about all dogs, but especially the ones in her care. She sent me lots of updates, photos, and videos - possibly more than she normally might because this was the first time I’d ever been apart from my dog and was a little nervous! She asked me great questions and was very considerate; for example asking first if it would be ok to give my dog a certain treat. She’s very mindful of animal interaction and knows each dog and situation are different. This was my first Rover experience and I hope they’re all as good as this was. Thank you Anne!”

About: 🐾 Hey there! I'm Emily, a passionate pet-sitter with a lifelong love for animals. Growing up, pets were always a part of my family, teaching me the importance of care and communication. I understand how hard it can be to leave your furry friend behind when you're away, which is why I strive to provide a loving and attentive experience for both you and your pet. I ensure they receive the same love and attention they would get at home. Can't wait to meet your adorable furry friend! 🐾 I am available mornings and evenings everyday. I work from home so I have the flexibility to check on your pet throughout the day or work from where ever your pet is! I care for animals by listening. Pets tell you what they need a lot of the time! Whether we are going on long walks, going to the dog park or just hanging out at home I’ll make sure your pet has a friend!
“Christina took great care of our dog! She provided fantastic photos and updates so we felt at ease. It’s clear how much she loves animals; highly recommend and will use her again in the future.”

“Alicia and Dave were great with Cosmo. He was very comfortable there with them and their dog, and they were great at giving him his medications. Always tough to find someone to watch these dogs with some medical issues, but they didn’t miss a beat. Loved getting the picture updates.”
“Kelly was a great sitter for my dog, was very caring and patient and made him feel at home. He likes a lot of attention and she was great with him and sent daily updates. I highly recommend Kelly!”

“Kathleen made the process of booking easy and was very accommodating when I needed to modify the reservation slightly. She offered to do a meet and greet with my dog before the drop off. All went smoothly during the two-night stay. I am grateful for the care she provided.”

“Stout enjoyed his visit with Simon. He was flexible about us changing our plans too. He was able to add extra dates which helped us enormously. Thank you!!”

“Amy was wonderful with my poodle, accepting the challenge to tire him out by the end of the day. She is courteous and easygoing, and has a large fenced in yard for the dogs to play. I would definitely hope to schedule with Any again.”

“Claudia and Jason were an absolute lifesaver. We needed a last minute sitter while visiting Maine and they came through. Drop off was a breeze and I knew Chase was in good hands. Regular updates including photos reassured myself and the kids that Chase was doing well. I can’t thank them enough and I can honestly attest that your dog is in good hands with them. I would absolutely without hesitation use them again if we’re in town.”

“Celine was 10 out of 10 fantastic for our dog’s weekend sleepover. She is a kind and caring person who makes sure both you and your dog are comfortable. I received many photos a day and I knew my dog was safe, happy, and enjoying his weekend with her. Overall it was a great experience and I would highly recommend Celine!”

“Alma took such good care of our pup while we were away for the weekend! He got lots of exercise and had so much fun playing with Birdie. Alma had a great setup at home and her communication was top notch.”

“This was Maizy’s second visit with Dill, Ike and Lucy. It’s obvious they love dogs! Their yard makes it easy for Maizy to go out. She was up early going for walks. The pictures we received showed how happy Maizy was on her vacation! Thanks guys!”
“Our dog, Maggie was happy with Abigail and Neil. They sent a few photos. She has a lot of energy and I'm sure she kept their dog, Molly busy. I appreciate them allowing Maggie to roam free in their home and on furniture.”

“Justin was fantastic! He was able to take my pup on short notice and did an amazing job. My dog had 5 different daily medications and Justin handled it with amazing care and communication. Highly recommend Justin for your next Rover!”


“Lindsay was so great! My two cats were only with her for a short stay but she was very responsive, sent updates with photos, and followed their care instructions incredibly precisely. My boys seemed to come back super comfortable and happy.”

“Hank and his mom Rachel were such a blast for our dog Bode to stay with. He had a great week of playtime, couch time, and what looked like hours of dog parkour. We will absolutely be sending Bode back.”
