“Thanks Diane and Grimm for taking good care of Lexi and Coops!! We appreciated all the updates and pictures as well! Definitely will rebook in the future! Chris and Lisa! 😀”
“Kelli was an absolute gem. We received lots of updates and pictures of our baby boys. We felt comfortable that our boys were safe and happy while gone from us. We definitely will choose Kelli again in the future.”
“Andrew and his wife were amazing hosts to my 114lb husky. They provided pictures everyday and walked her as much as she wanted! She barely wanted to leave their home- highly recommend!”
“Jessica & Matt are amazing! They updated me everyday with photos and how my pup was doing. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs a dog sitter. Thank you again, to both of you for taking such good care of Charlie, I never worried once while I was gone, knowing he was in your care😊”
“Greta is Awesome . Always on time, keeps me updated, very experienced and takes care of my boy when I’m away. My dog is always happy to see her and always have a good time with her.”
“First time we used Rover.com and first time we were away from our dog. I think he had some anxiety but Lyndsey and Justin were great with the whole process.”
“Marty was fantastic with my dog. She accommodated our need on short notice and treated our girl like her own. She sent me photos and videos through out the time I was away. Her home and yard are beautiful. The fenced area was very impressive! I will definitely trust Marty with my dog in the future.”
“Laura let me book last minute and has been so flexible with my unpredictable work schedule — I truly appreciate her! She does a great job making sure your dog feels comfortable and at home, and she reassures me with updates throughout the day, which means a lot. I honestly think my dog gets triple the attention and exercise when she’s boarded with Laura. Jersey always comes home super tired and content! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“I cannot say enough good things about Jess. From our first meeting, I immediately felt comfortable leaving my baby with her. Her family is so warm and welcoming, and I love that she only takes one family at a time. I received pictures every night about my baby’s day. He was so happy and cared for that. I thought he might not want to come home with me. You will not be disappointed when you use Jess.”
“Amazing, definitely highly recommend. Our dog and cat are very social and need a lot of attention and they were very happy and comfortable from the start. Very responsive, friendly, provided a lot of updates and pictures. We found our go to for any future need for watching our pets.”
“Kristen was so great with our cat! She made sure Tunip had quiet places to stay and calm down after being stressed from the new environment. She was also very responsive and kept me updated throughout our trip. Overall, Kristen and her family were so kind and welcoming!”
“We had a great experience with them and we will definitely be using them again! They offer a really welcoming space for your pets and you can tell that they care about every one that they take care of. My dogs stayed with them and I could tell by the pictures they had a great time. They weren't even excited to see us when we picked them up after being gone for a week! I was slightly offended but so happy they enjoyed their stay.”
“Jamie and her husband have watched our Magd twice now and wouldn’t want anyone else watching her. She is so attentive and absolutely adores our puppy. Thanks so much for being the best dog sitter ever!!!!”
“We spent a week on vacation and left our Italian Greyhound with Beth and her two pups Annie and Lennox. She sent photos every day and kept us updated. Rush came home excited and happy. Highly recommended.”
“Annmarie is a literal dog whisperer & GEM! Brings in my rambunctious boy, sometimes with very short notice, and calms him with her pure existence! Thank you, Annmarie! Oakley loves being with you and his friends, and we appreciate the love and patience you show him!”
“I think Shivambika did a very good job with my 7 lb. Yorkshire Terrier. She learned about and respected some of his breed’s idiosyncrasies. She took him into her yard, on a leash, & to a nearby trail. No doubt he loved that. It was my fault that he had to be exposed to another dog for his last 3 days, as I initially got my return date wrong . But he dealt with that pretty well, it seems.”
“Paula, Manny and there pack of fur babies were WONDERFUL for our dog! Our Gus is very young and energetic and is our only dog. Spending time with Paula and Manny and their stable pack was so good for him!! He actually came home much better behaved than when we dropped him off!! This is the first time we've ever used a dog sitter and I was very nervous. Paula understood completely and sent photos and checked in daily! So reassuring. Highly recommend!”

“Chloe is fantastic. If you're on the fence about choosing a Rover, she definitely removes anxiety from the equation once you see her in action. She was on time, followed every instruction, and provided great enrichment with and attention to my dogs and cat. They took to her immediately with zero tension. She spent solid time making sure they went potty, and closely monitored their bathroom habits and water intake. Everything was locked up securely when she left. I loved the detailed report cards and would absolutely book her services again.”
“Yvonne is such a caring sitter! Mavis is very cautious of people and she warmed up to Yvonne instantly ❤️ thank you for taking such good care of our fur baby while we were gone. 10/10 would chose Yvonne to watch my pet/s again.”
About: I have loved animals from a very young age, convincing my parents to get me my own dog when I was 10 years old. Her name was Zoey! I trained her myself, and she was my best friend. Not long after that, I began dog sitting for friends and eventually also spent time cat sitting and taking care of animals like chickens and bunnies. I adore pets of all shapes and sizes, and I understand entirely the immense value they have in our lives. I want nothing more than to make you feel safe allowing me to care for your best friends. I am occupied from 8am to 6pm Monday through Friday, but I am free most weekends and available to care for pets in the evenings. I make sure all animals are well fed and watered as fits their schedule. Also, I understand the importance of activity and quality time and make sure to play with them, take them on regular walks, and give them lots of love.
About: I love working with animals! I work at a pet boarding facility so I am very experienced when it comes to handling and taking care of a variety of pets. I have taken care of cats and dogs of all ages. I currently have 5 cats and 2 dogs of my own. I’m a huge animal lover and like to describe myself as an animal whisperer! I am an online graduate student, so I have lots of time on my hands to pet or house sit. I am available most weekdays and weekends and am willing to stay at the location of the the house if needed! I am great at following directions. Whatever instructions are given to help keep your pet safe I will make sure they are met! I bond with animals very easily so I will make sure your pet has a great time, even if they miss you!
“Victoria is wonderful! She pet sat and stayed at my home for a week. I returned to my house looking just as I had left it and my kitty was very happy. I will definitely use her again 😊”
About: I’ve always had a strong love for animals and experience caring for pets with different personalities, sizes, and needs. I currently own a German Shepherd/Poodle mix and a Maltese/Yorkie, so I’m very comfortable handling both high-energy dogs and smaller breeds that need extra attention and care. Caring for my own dogs has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and making pets feel safe and comfortable. What sets me apart is that I truly treat every pet like family. I understand that every animal has their own routine, personality, and comfort level, and I take the time to make sure they feel loved and cared for while their owners are away. I’m experienced in walking, feeding on schedule, providing playtime, administering basic care, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I’m also comfortable with puppies that need extra patience and energy, as well as with older dogs that may need a calmer, gentler approach. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already spend a lot of time caring for my own dogs. I’m used to maintaining feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets get the attention and care they need throughout the day. Since I’m organized and good at managing my time, I’m flexible and dependable for drop-in visits or walks during the week! I enjoy staying active, so taking dogs on walks or spending time playing with them is something I genuinely enjoy. Whether it’s sticking to a pet’s normal routine or giving extra attention when needed, I make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand how important routines are for pets, so I make sure to follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. I also pay close attention to a pet’s behavior and comfort level to help reduce stress while their owner is away. I have experience caring for both large and small dogs through my own pets, a German Shepherd/Poodle mix and a Maltese/Yorkie, so I’m comfortable handling different energy levels and personalities. I keep environments clean, calm, and pet-friendly, and I always prioritize safety during walks, outdoor time, and interactions. My goal is to make every pet feel at home and give owners peace of mind, knowing their pets are in caring, dependable hands.
“Jessica was extremely nice, respectful, and was welcomed in my home. I have a hard time A. Leaving my pets with others and B. Letting people into my home. But Jessica did everything that made me feel so comfortable and reassured that my pet was taken care of well. Highly recommend and I intend to book again.”
“I am so extremely grateful right now. Hunter is the best match for my dog snow. Thank you so much for everything that you’re doing for me. I cannot even begin to thank you enough.”
“Teryn is the BEST! She was so dependable and even brought in our mail when the post office missed the hold mail request. The fur babies were well taken care of and we were very comfortable leaving them in her care. We will definitely hire Teryn again!”
“Bridgett was a lifesaver! She took great care of my kitties while I was out of town for a week. She sent me daily updates and pictures and really seemed to like hanging out with my needy cat.”
About: I have owned animals all of my life and have struggled to find the best care for them when needed. I have experience and currently care for dogs, cats, birds, horses and chickens. I will care for your fur babies the way I would expect my own to be cared for. My expectations are very high and I would not provide anything less. My home is in a great neighborhood and I have a fully fenced backyard. My home is non-smoking and I do have a 13 and 16 year old who also love animals. My 2 older girls are out on their own finishing school and caring for their own animals. I commit to providing the best possible care for your animals because I know how important that is to me.
“This was my first time leaving my cats, and I was so relieved to find Mckenzie. So grateful to her for her awesome cat sitting! She was extremely friendly and eager to bond with my cats to make them as comfortable as possible while we were gone. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates, which I really enjoyed. She also left the house spotless. Thanks again McKenzie, I’m sure we will be contacting you again!”
“Sam took great care of my cats and bearded dragon. She made sure to double check that my dragon’s lights were on a timer and not just out. She did a good job of giving my needy orange cat lots of attention and space for my shy cat. I highly recommend her.”
“Jewel provided a sense of comfort when I was out of town knowing that my pet was in good hands with a dependable, kind, animal lover. I will use her again and 100% recommend others do too! Joe B.”
About: Loving Home on an Acre – Your Dog’s Second Family! Hi there! We’re a pet-loving family offering dog boarding and doggy daycare from the comfort of our home. With over 12 years of experience as pet owners and more than 8 years of dog sitting, caring for animals is second nature to us. We recently lost our beloved pup, and while we miss her deeply, we’re excited to open our hearts and home to new furry friends. We live on a fully fenced-in acre—plenty of space for sniffing, running, and exploring. Whether your dog loves lounging in the sun or playing fetch, they’ll have the freedom and safety to do what they love. We work remotely and have a teenager who is home from college for the summer, which means your dog will never be alone—there’s always someone here to provide companionship, belly rubs, and supervised outdoor time. We welcome dogs of all breeds and ages, from energetic puppies to relaxed seniors. Our home also includes one very mellow cat who is used to dogs. We ensure a calm, respectful environment for all our guests and treat each pet as if they were our own. If you’re looking for a safe, caring, and attentive place for your dog while you’re away, we’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care is a natural part of our daily routine. Since we both work remotely from home, we’re here all day to provide consistent care, attention, and companionship. Our days include regular potty breaks, playtime, and walks tailored to each dog’s needs and energy level. Because we live on a fenced acre, your pup will enjoy plenty of safe outdoor time, supervised at all times. Whether it’s cuddle time on the couch, fetch in the yard, or quiet moments for senior dogs, we’re fully present and engaged. Caring for pets isn’t just something we do—it’s something we love and live every day. We provide a calm, structured, and loving environment tailored to each pet’s needs. Dogs staying with us become part of our daily routine, which includes supervised outdoor time in our fully fenced acre, regular potty breaks, and personalized play or rest depending on their energy level. We’re always home, so your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, and snuggles throughout the day. We follow your feeding and medication schedule closely and make sure to maintain any habits your dog is used to—whether that’s crate time, leash walks, or cozy bedtime routines. Our home is dog-friendly, and while we have one cat, they’re used to dogs and tend to keep to themselves.

About: I am currently a stay at home mom to two young boys. Before I became a mom I work e at a vet hospital and at a dog and cat boarding facility. I would just like to earn a little more cash on my free time and what better way than to be with animals. I have 2 dogs of my own who love the company of other dogs and cats as well. I also have a small bird but she stays in her cage And I have two guinea pigs that also stay in their cage. I’m more than welcome to come to your home or if you want them to come to mine that is fine also! I do have a fenced in back yard. If you have any questions just ask. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile.
“After my husky's first stay with Jamie, I can say we will definitely use her services again! Bailey loved spending time at her house. The fenced yard was perfect, and Jamie provided lots of love and connectedness. Thank you, Jamie!”
“My puppy Cooper has visited Tristan a couple times and we will be continuing weekly doggy day care once a week. I love knowing he is having a good day full of walks and attention, helping Cooper develop skills in his puppyhood. Tristan sends a lot of good photos showing Cooper having fun!”
“Silver was extremely professional and, I sincerely appreciate the level of care and concern that she gave to both myself and my fur baby. She took the time to make sure I was comfortable and, I have honestly never seen him smile as much as he did while in her care! I will definitely be using her in the near future!”
“Trish was so good with our puppy! She worked with him throughout the day and took him to the park. It was such a relief knowing he was with someone who truly cares when we couldn't be with him. I also love that I have another option for Khyron on those extra busy days! I would definitely recommend Trish to take care of your fur baby!”
About: Both Matt and I have taken care of animals since we were young for friends &family. We have two frenchies both are two years old ( please keep in mind when they first meet a new dog they get very excited and can have a lot of energy and LOVE to play) We have also had experience with numerous breeds. Your fur baby will have lots of fun and love in our home. Having two frenchies, we know how high maintenance some dogs can be, that’s why it’s important to us to provide the best experience for you and your fur baby. During Monday-Friday I work 8-5. However, Matt does work from home so will be able to give your fur baby all the love and attention!( if Matt does have to step out it’s typically no longer than 2 hours but not often ) If you have any questions regarding our schedule, please feel free to reach out. If for some reason Matt does have to leave for more than a couple hours, we will block that day off as we do not believe in leaving fur babies alone for long periods. We are homebodies on the weekends as well. So someone will always be with your fur baby. We will make sure your fur baby gets plenty of walks and outside time. We live in a nice/quiet neighborhood. When the weather is nice, our frenchies love to sun bathe, play fetch, we also set up their splash pad, so we spend lots of time outside. We do allow dogs on our bed and furniture( if you allow it) we will not crate your dog unless we do have to step out ( which again is not often). During the night, we will not crate unless you prefer them in a crate. Please let us know if there is any special request and we can accommodate. We do ask for a meet n greet to make sure your dogs and our two frenchies get along. Your fur baby’s safety and comfortability will always be our priority as well as our babies. We know how it feels leaving your fur baby and you might get anxious so we will make sure to send a daily update. *Please note we are happy to accommodate large dogs, they MUST get along with little dogs. We do only accept one large dog at a time. Please be sure to look at our pics as we do have a short fence, if your dog is known for jumping we may have to utilize a leash*

We have 10 individual kennels for dogs at night and a large indoor doggie daycare play area as well as a 6 ft fully fenced outdoor play area.
“Glad I was able to use Rover during our travel. Diane was attentive to Bob making certain he ate and drank while he was in her care. Home was clean and well cared for. This is about the 4th time I have scheduled a sitter when I have had to travel to an event a distance from home. Will recommend Diane to family who live in her area and to other travelers”

“Louie had a great first day with Kerry! She is wonderful and her home is beautiful and pet-friendly. She understands Lou’s needs as a puppy and made time for lots of walks and play time to tire him out! She kept in very close communication with us and sent cute pictures of Louie all day. She is incredibly loving towards Louie and made us feel very comfortable leaving him in her care. We trust her implicitly and appreciate how flexible she is with late pickup times. We will continue to use her as needed for daycare! Thank you so much Kerry!!!”

About: Over the past years, I've been a dog mom to Kira, a German Shepherd, Lady, an Australian Cattle Dog, and Gaia, an Australian Cattle Dog. I loved them all very much, and took very good care of them. I welcome the opportunity to get to know your dog, and shower them with love and affection. I like to walk, to play, and to cuddle. I have experience with senior dogs. I'm available 7 days a week, from 11:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.. I'm available with one day's notice for established customers for a walk or drop-in visit. We need to allow time for a complementary "meet and greet," and then if I'm a good fit for your pet, we can schedule walks and visits. I will settle in with your fur baby, and learn the lay of the land in the house and yard if we are at your house. We'll have some treats (if appropriate) and go out for potty, walk, and play. Then we'll rest and cuddle.
About: I have pet sat in my home and drop by visits of, dogs, cats, lizards, and fish for the past 8 or so years for money and have owned pets my whole life. I have watch anywhere from 1 to 7 dogs at a time and have multiple cats at one time. If I am doing drop by visits I perfer spend about 1 hour or more at the house each visit. During this time I will feed, water, let animals use bathroom, clean any and all messes inside and outside of the home, and play inside and/or outside with the pet. I take pictures for each visit of the pets as well as send a synopsis of the visit to the pet owner upon request. The day of or prior to the owner returning, I can sweep and mop the main living area or vacuum especiallyif it has been wet outside. If you let me know where bathing and brushing equipment is, I am also willing to wash and brush any and all pets prior to the pet owner coming home. This way the owner can come home and enjoy time with their pet rather than cleaning. I am a military veteran who is taking time off my job as a veterinary assistant to help care for alling family member. Due to my experience with military I am very time oriented and organized, but can function well in crazy environments as well. In addition to that with my experience of working in the veterinary field I am well adapt to give medication and handle medical emergencies with animals. This being said if I notice a medical issue with your pet I will take it to be seen, but will notify you prior to taking them. I personally have a diabetic cat, so I am also comfortable with giving injections and taking blood glucose reading from pets. I also have experience giving fluids under the skin if the animal is in renal failure or for any other reason. I am comfortable giving pills to animals that need medication in that form as well. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. I am able to visit your home at any time with the exception of 7 am to 8 am and 7 pm to 8 pm when I need to feed and medicate my own diabetic cat. If there is a time I am unable to visit due to care of my family I will let you know prior to our booking. Dogs will go on daily walks around the neighborhood to relieve any pent up energy and/or have yard time if you have a fenced in yard. All pets will receive lots of pets, love, and play time from myself.
“I am extremely grateful for this dog walker. I cannot express it enough. I’m having to regenerate my nerves right now. I’m going to keep this dog walker for as long as I need. I am extremely blessed right now. Thank you Hunter for every single thing that you do. God bless you, sir.”
About: I have 21 years of comfortability around pets (since I was born) and 3 years of professional pet sitting experience with both dogs & cats :). I have experience with senior pets & puppies! I work part time but my shifts are usually less than 8 hours. **if your pet cannot be left alone for 6-8 hours please give me ideally a month of notice so I can adjust my work schedule to fit their needs.** I am available every day of the week and update my calendar constantly! I treat my pets with love, care, and as a part of my family! I would do the same with your pets to make them feel as safe and at home as possible.
“Jessica is great with my Australian Shepherd, in the summer she’s taken him on walks in the park and in the winter she’s considerate of the conditions so he doesn’t get hurt! She also always checks his water and gives him some attention which I know my little guy loves! Thank you for taking care of my Aussie, I really appreciate it!”
About: I have been a volunteer at Paradise Animal Rescue for over a year, with a focus on caring for the kittens and cats. I have 3 cats of my own and grew up with cats and dogs. One of our cats is a senior and two of them require special care after having dental surgeries, so it's no problem if yours needs special attention. I regularly dogsit for a friend who has a Great Pyrenees, Leo. I work part time and remotely, with a very flexible schedule, so I am able to accommodate for just about anything you and you furbaby need. I will treat your pet(s) as though they are my own. Every visit to your home, I will follow all of your instructions to a T and give your pet(s) all of my love and attention.
About: I was grew up on a farm and have spent most of my life with animals. I worked at a local vet clinic in high school, trained horses and I have worked in rescue. My family always had at least one dog for as long as I can remember. I got my first Border Collie, Dexter, when I was thirteen. Dex and I did everything together and he's the one who made me fall in love with Border Collies and all things dog related. I have been training, showing and breeding for nearly 23 years. The dogs I have now are involved in disc, agility, dock diving, obedience and herding. I enjoy all animals but dogs and horses will always have a special place in my heart because so much of my life has been spent with them. My hours are generally very flexible and I am available whenever best suits you and your pets needs. Most of free time is spent with my dogs or with clients. I'm not watching pets at my home right now because my oldest dog doesn't like strangers and I don't want to upset him if I don't have to. *Currently rewriting my profile please excuse the chaos*

“First time we used Rover.com and first time we were away from our dog. I think he had some anxiety but Lyndsey and Justin were great with the whole process.”
“Marty was fantastic with my dog. She accommodated our need on short notice and treated our girl like her own. She sent me photos and videos through out the time I was away. Her home and yard are beautiful. The fenced area was very impressive! I will definitely trust Marty with my dog in the future.”
“Laura let me book last minute and has been so flexible with my unpredictable work schedule — I truly appreciate her! She does a great job making sure your dog feels comfortable and at home, and she reassures me with updates throughout the day, which means a lot. I honestly think my dog gets triple the attention and exercise when she’s boarded with Laura. Jersey always comes home super tired and content! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“I cannot say enough good things about Jess. From our first meeting, I immediately felt comfortable leaving my baby with her. Her family is so warm and welcoming, and I love that she only takes one family at a time. I received pictures every night about my baby’s day. He was so happy and cared for that. I thought he might not want to come home with me. You will not be disappointed when you use Jess.”
“Amazing, definitely highly recommend. Our dog and cat are very social and need a lot of attention and they were very happy and comfortable from the start. Very responsive, friendly, provided a lot of updates and pictures. We found our go to for any future need for watching our pets.”
“Kristen was so great with our cat! She made sure Tunip had quiet places to stay and calm down after being stressed from the new environment. She was also very responsive and kept me updated throughout our trip. Overall, Kristen and her family were so kind and welcoming!”
“We had a great experience with them and we will definitely be using them again! They offer a really welcoming space for your pets and you can tell that they care about every one that they take care of. My dogs stayed with them and I could tell by the pictures they had a great time. They weren't even excited to see us when we picked them up after being gone for a week! I was slightly offended but so happy they enjoyed their stay.”
“Paula, Manny and there pack of fur babies were WONDERFUL for our dog! Our Gus is very young and energetic and is our only dog. Spending time with Paula and Manny and their stable pack was so good for him!! He actually came home much better behaved than when we dropped him off!! This is the first time we've ever used a dog sitter and I was very nervous. Paula understood completely and sent photos and checked in daily! So reassuring. Highly recommend!”
“Haley hosted our 10yo golden retriever in her home for 5 days. They have an excellent fenced in backyard and two kiddos to keep pups busy! Haley also did home visits for our cat, who needs insulin shots with his food. She came over once before our vacation to see how to care for our cat and we returned to a healthy and happy feline! The daily photos we got were such a reassurance that our pets were in great hands. We definitely will use Haley again for our future trips. Easy to communicate and coordinate with!”
“If I could give 10 stars, I would! Our dog Mabel had the time of her life. We received updates throughout each day with pictures and videos, which made us feel so comfortable while we were away. They have a very spacious backyard where the dogs can run and play. I honestly don’t think Mabel wanted to come home after her stay! We can’t thank them enough and would absolutely book again!”

It helped me also in choosing care for my dog that she listened to his specific needs & she is a dog trainer. She is very accommodating. I will be boarding him again in the future.”
