“Felix was great with my dog Sadie! She can be a bit shy and anxious in new environments but warmed up in this safe and comfortable environment. She had a great time playing with the other dogs! Felix was very responsive and provided updates frequently”
“Wow, Marissa is the best. We got photos frequently and reports of how our furry friend was doing. She was very responsive and flexible with our crazy work schedules. Best sitter ever!”
“I am completely at ease when we leave our german shorthair pointer with this family. We get plenty of updates and it looks like Daisy gets plenty of playtime with their pet and plenty of attention from the humans. The second time we brought her there she ran right up to the house like she remembered the good memories she made there the last time.”
“Jenn was awesome! From the meet & greet to the weekend boarding. I was so nervous as it was our first time having to board our Aussiedoodle Jax. Jenn made sure to send us pictures & videos multiple times per day. It was such an added bonus to see our puppy just having the best time! She had toys & even took him swimming! I know Jax had a great time, he was wore out & sleeping as soon as we got home. She was really understanding & listening when I brought up his food allergies. I will continue using her for boarding & recommending her to our friends with dogs that may need it.”
“Jacob took great care of our dog while we were away! We were kept updated, and a very happy pup was returned to us. Extremely impressed with the service, would highly recommend and absolutely book again.”
“I would definitely recommend Melvin and Sean! This was our first time leaving our baby Charlie. As someone who deals with anxiety it wasn't an easy thing for me to do. However they made me feel completely at ease and assured me that he was safe and well taken care of. The photo updates they sent throughout the stay helped so much and truly gave me peace of mind. I’m so grateful for the wonderful care they provided! We will definitely use them again.”
“Jenna is amazing! She was ultra responsive when it came to booking and she made it super easy. The boys absolutely loved her and had a great time. They came home all tuckered out. We can’t wait to see her again!”
“I had to leave town last weekend and decided to see what boarding my dog Ding with somebody from Rover might be like. I hit the jackpot when I decided to reach out to Roman and Suzanne. Right from the get go they were extremely responsive and had the answers to all my questions. And so friendly! We did a quick meet and greet at their home and I instantly knew I’d be trusting my guy with them. Just really wonderful people and they clearly love the animals they take care of. And they sure took care of mine! I got lots of pictures and updates over the weekend, and Ding looked so happy in all of them. He really hit it off with their dog Sonic! The weekend flew by and after an easy pickup (they really made everything so easy!) Ding and I were back home. He totally crashed out after a fun weekend with his new friends. Cant recommend Roman and Suzanne and family enough! I’ll definitely be reaching out to for another upcoming weekend trip :) Thanks so much!”
“David provided the best care for our 2 pups! We were away for 2 weeks in which time David kept us updated on the well being of our dogs. He is a conscientious pet care provider 🐾🐾”
“Toby, my dearest little 8lb. Cheweenie fur baby does wonderfully with Pam and her small fur baby crew! I am so grateful to have Pam and her fur family to care for Toby. He has a blast. Pam always goes above and beyond for Toby. Moreso, Pam is very intuitive and provides for Toby his likes and preferences such as his favorite sunspot, placed bed in front of heater vent, food preferences. Huge she let's him sleep with her at night as that is what he is used to with me. Upon picking Toby up, although he is always happy to see me I can very much see he has bonded with Pam and her sweet pups and cats, making his stay very nice and positive experience. Pam and her fur babies have become like extended family as Auntie Pam and his fur cousins ❤️”
“Molly was wonderful!! She was communicative (I loved the daily updates with photos) and did so much to keep our dog busy and exercised. She came home extra tired and extra happy. Would definitely recommend!”
“Blue had a great time with Dale and his dogs. His communication with us was great from the start, sending updates everyday of his stay. Made us feel comfortable from the first meet and greet. Will be booking with him again!”
“Ru far exceeded our expectations. Numerous changes to our reservation were handled graciously. Our pet was spoiled. Ru sent regular update with pictures which was so nice to get. Mu Shu has made a new friend. I highly recommend Ru as a pet sitter. I will use her services in the future”
“Katherine was excellent with our black lab! Even with a fairly short notice, she and her family welcomed her and took great care of her over the weekend. Would book again!”
“This is the third time we have used Megan to watch our pup and she has been amazing! We are so thankful for her knowledge and love toward our puppy and her great communication. She is so kind and flexible.”
“Evvia was absolutely fantastic. Howie had plenty of activities and stimulation and I have no doubt he was in the best hands. Communication was great and I loved all the pictures and videos she sent of my boy while I was away. Will definitely rebook with Evvia in the future!”

“Oh my goodness, amazing! It’s clear she is an animal lover and caretaker. The thoughtful updates on what the kitties were up to and what she did during her time at the check in were so helpful and made me feel so at ease. Will DEFINITELY rebook. Thank you SO much Moira!!!”
“My kitty decided to be a very challenging and stressful little lady while we were gone. Maelee kept me informed of everything going on and was very patient and adaptive to my cats needs. You did a great job, thanks again!”
“Beth did well caring for our cats who "stress out" when mama's away. She even made an extra trip to double check on one of our cats who was being a bit of a spazzz. Quick to respond on the phone or via Rover's messaging options when needed. I'd recommend Beth as a stand-in Cat Mom when you need a sitter!”
“Molly is amazing! She communicates and updates as needed. And she’s taking loving care of the cats. I appreciate the pictures and notes each time. Highly recommend Molly!”
About: I have a lot of experience taking care of my family’s dogs (Bernese Mountain Dogs) and dogsitting for friends and neighbors. I have a lot of energy, so I am willing to walk, run, and play with your dog. I am also willing to take your dog to a dog park to get out some more energy. I also offer house sitting. I am a middle school teacher, so during the week I am only available for drop-ins and walks after 3:40. If I am dogsitting for you during the week, there will be times that I am gone for 8-9 hours at work. But on most weekends, I wouldn’t be gone for more than 3-4 hours at a time, and would spend the rest of the time home with your pet making them feel safe and loved! I work full time from 7:30-3:30 on weekdays, but have a lot of afternoon and evening availability for drop-ins and walks. I am also available for early morning drop-ins before 7:00 am. I follow all of the routines, procedures, and feeding instructions left by the pet’s family in order to provide great care for the pet and to ensure the home is safe and secure.
“Holly was absolutely amazing!! She is great with our two cats and they do well with her even with having shy personalities. We will definitely be using Holly for any future trips.”
“Brian was great, he stopped by early to meet our two cats and stayed in touch during the weekend. It really put our minds at ease knowing Jack and Rizzo were taken care of.”
“Booking with Kelsey & Forrest to take care of my cat was such a great experience! They were very communicative, sent pictures and videos of my cat, provided updates, and took very good care of my girl 🐱. This was my first experience with Rover and it was very pleasant. If you want someone that’ll take care of your pet like their own, don’t hesitate to book Kelsey & Forrest. I will definitely book them again in the future :)”
“Kaitlin is incredibly proactive, communicative, and responsible! She watched our two cats over a weekend and sent us lots of cute photos and detailed updates. We were super impressed with her and she made us feel so secure about leaving for the weekend. I trust her completely and would highly recommend her to anyone!!”
“Andrea took such great care of my 2 cats! She provided detailed descriptions of how they were doing along with pictures. She even went above and beyond and swept/cleaned my cat’s food bowls and water mats. I had peace of mind when I was away and couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Wonderful as usual! Hanna not only took great care of our cat (A++ service and photos/videos) but also watered a lawn we were re-seeding every morning, no problem. We know our cat looks forward to her visits - which makes us feel better while we’re away.”
“Melissa was amazing! send me pictures of my cats every day! And really showed she cared about them, keeping them entertained and loved ❤️ great communicator as well!”
About: I’ve been around cats and dogs since childhood. My friends, family, and co-workers have trusted me to care for their fur babies! I have a senior pittie with reactive/aggressive behavior, so I do have experience and empathy towards that! I work full time Monday-Thursday 7:30am-5pm but can drop in after work or later in the evening as well. Friday-Sunday are my more flexible days! I fully respect the owner’s schedule for their pet and will follow whatever instructions are needed to ensure your pet is safe and cared for properly. I would ask the same for my own!
“The main thing we appreciate is Jenn’s intuition. Does your cat need love and scritches? Respect and space? A little song? All of these, but in different ways on different days—because life is tough and there are happy days and hairball days and Jenn understands them all🌻”
About: I've taken care of my dog and family and friends dogs for many years. I even volunteered in an animal shelter for awhile as well! I currently run a small handmade business from my space. I do work a part-time service job a couple days of the week in a restaurant right now as well. Aside from dog sitting that's what I do financially. I spend a lot of time outdoors with my own dog, we like to run, play fetch, chase squirrels, and spend time treat training. I make sure a walk and quality time are prioritys with animals. I do not take dogs into my living space as I live with friends currently and on the road at times, so I prefer to go to your home and location. I'm very flexible! :)

“This was our first time leaving our dog (Fitz) with anyone, so wasn't sure how it was going to go. Joshua made us feel very comfortable. He took great care of Fitz and updated us throughout the day!”
“Great experience so far with Jacy. Our usual sitter was unavailable for boarding for the weekend we needed so we went looking for someone else. I'm always on the fence with new pet sitters as we had a terrible experience previously with someone else on Rover. Jacy put me at ease the moment we walked through her door for our meet and greet. I could tell immediately she truly cares for animals and it isn't just about making extra income. She uses an intake form to get all of the necessary details she needs to provide the best care for your pets. My Aussie is very anxious so she suggested doing a daycare day just so she could sniff around and get familiar with her home and the other animals there before she stays for the weekend. She had a great day! Jacy provided updates and pictures through out the day and it was clear Luna was having a great time. I'm sure her weekend stay will go great and we're so happy to have found Jacy!”
About: I’ve always had animals of my own, basically since I was old enough to walk. I started my own pet-sitting business when I was 13. I’m the go-to for friends and family when they need their babies cared for and I love every breed. I studied veterinary medicine for a number of years and have more recently begun to train dogs, as well. I work full-time but I make my own schedule. I also live just a few minutes away from my work and can pop back to my house when need be. I’m already taking care of our senior dog, our new puppy, and our two cats. I love being outside and taking the babies for walks. I have a fenced in yard as well as two other dogs and two other cats. I have a large crate as well as two portable enclosures and no shortage of extra bowls, blankets, toys, and towels. I live in a great neighborhood and there is a park a block away. It’s important to me that animals are well taken care of and I love spending extra time playing and snuggling with any babies I get to hang out with.
“This was our first experience with River and boy, did we choose wisely! This was a “test” for our pups in preparation for a 2 night stay and it was really good! Jenn meet us at the front door and took the dogs immediately out the back to the yard to aid in our escape. Of course they were happy to see us upon our return but we are confident in our decision to leave them longer with Jenn. We highly recommend her!”
“Megan did a great job watching our pup. She sent lots of pictures and kept us updated while we were gone. Harley was EXHAUSTED when we left, which is always a great sign. Will definitely use her again.”
“Melissa was absolutely awesome taking care of our dog, Finn! She’s so friendly and Finn felt comfortable with her right away. I felt good leaving him in her hands. I definitely recommend her if you need some doggie daycare!”
About: I've had one or more dogs in my life since I was 6 years old. I currently have a senior red heeler that I rescued 8 years ago. Not only have I grown up taking care of my own dogs, as an adult I dog sit quite regularly for friends. I do work from home, which affords me the opportunity to take breaks to interact with and toilet my heeler and any other dog we have visiting, on their schedules. I work from home, so Monday thru Friday, I rarely leave my home, except to take the dog for walks. I may go away in the evenings, during the week, for a couple hours, but that's rare. I do tend to be more active on the weekends, doing my grocery shopping and running other errands, as well church on Sundays, and an occasional brunch. I do have a fenced in back yard as well as a senior red heeler (as stated earlier). My heeler doesn't really pay much attention to other dogs, and seems to prefer the company of humans. That being said, he gets along great with other dogs.
“Miller had a great day with Daniel. This was his first time being away from us and when I picked him up he seemed very calm and happy. Daniel kept me updated during the day with pictures of my happy boy which I really appreciated. Excellent, timely communication as well.”
“Marina was super flexible with us and our schedule, which we really appreciated! She also was very patient and understanding with my anxious dog. She provided a great, comfortable environment for me and we will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Ki was flexible with my work schedule needs and was very communicative in sending pictures and updates of Benji. She brought him on plenty of walks too. Her excitement to meet Benji reassured me that he was in good hands.”
About: I am a retired Special Education Teacher. Your pet will get spoiled in my home or yours! I am a compassionate, caring person. I have been providing care for dogs for 4 years. I have plenty of references to back up any recommendation that you made need. My last pet was a puppy named Bella that I provided care for. I watch her 30 hours a week and helped potty train her. I loved her as if she was my own. I was Gramma Lisa to her and we formed a special bond which I do with all the pets I watch. I have had dogs in my life since I was young. I tell my friends that I will know I am heaven when I see my past dogs around me.
“Great experience. She was flexible with our arrival and departure times, as we were running behind for both. Dog seemed quite happy when we picked her up. Would absolutely use Sarah's service again. Thank you.”

“Kate has been walking my dog for a few months now. She's been consistent, reliable, and done a great job. My dog shoes her and the walks they go on. I would definitely recommend her.”
“Katie is the best! She is very good with my dog, and very kind and communicative. Thanks so much, Katie! We will definitely always use her anytime and recommend her to anyone.”
“Jasmine is an awesome dog walker! She was very attentive and left some of the best notes I've ever had from a dog walker/sitter, which I really appreciated. She also used rover cards, which helps a ton, so I know where Moe walked and how far during the day. 10/10 will use again. I can also tell she has a lot of good experience working with animals. Thanks Jasmine!”
“First time Rover users, so we did a walk with Lillie to get Odin acclimated before house sitting for a week next week. Lillie handled Odin’s confusion very well and took him around the subdivision and took notes for the upcoming stay.”
“I would highly recommend Maelee. She has walked Scout multiple times now and is always on time and a great communicator. Plus the cute pictures after the walk are always an added bonus 😊”
About: At a young age, I began to understand and care for our pets and those of friends and family members. I’ve learned how to be patient, kind, and active in order to provide the best care for dogs of various ages and sizes. Living in an apartment now post college, I’ve quickly realized how much I miss the joy and love a dog can bring. I would be incredibly honored to care and provide the most love to your furry family members! I do have a hybrid work schedule but it does come with flexibility to work around any at home requirements. I’ll typically be out of town Monday through Thursday, and have Friday through Sunday available at home. If given enough advance notice, I can manage my schedule to fit around your pets schedule. My work events can change weekly, so planning ahead of time is essential. When I’m not on the road, I work from home and have the ability to care for pets around the clock. My apartment complex is pet friendly, and there are many dogs that live throughout the building. There is an open grass area where many of them do their business, but I do prefer to walk around the block to give your dog more to sniff and space to choose where they’d like to “go”. There are also many local parks that I enjoy going to for little adventures! Since I will likely be working from home while caring for your pet, I will be able to provide 24 hour care and understand their needs throughout the day. Over the weekends, this will also be provided, as I typically stay home and go out around the area locally only.
“Brian did a great job checking in on Mochi when I had to work all day. He took him for a walk and made sure he went potty. Gave Mochi lots of treats and attention! Thanks again ?”
“I am a very over protective doggie mom. I met Claire and instantly liked her and so did my Daisy. She helped us out for a few days and I cannot tell you how pleased and grateful I am for hiring her. She is wonderful with dogs (and mine is strong and a bit wild). My dog LOVES her! I cannot recommend Claire enough! I wish this offered more than 5 stars!”
About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and understand that every pet deserves patience, attention, and personalized care. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their routine, I’m committed to making them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’ve had pets my whole life of all kinds and have watched many of my family and friends pets over the years! I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing dependable care, plenty of affection, and regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering basic medications if needed, and making sure your pet gets the exercise, attention, and comfort they deserve. My goal is to create a stress free experience for both you and your pet by providing reliable, compassionate care you can count on. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I’m currently a DPT student at GVSU so outside of class I’m open all afternoons after 3 and Fridays as well as weekends to drop in and visit your pets! Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, potty breaks, exercise, and any special requests to help keep your pet’s routine consistent while you’re away. During drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, plenty of love and attention, playtime, and potty breaks or litter box cleaning as needed. For walks, I use secure leash handling and stay aware of our surroundings to help keep your dog safe while tailoring each walk to their age, energy level, and individual needs. I respect your home as if it were my own and will ensure doors, gates, and windows are secure before I leave. I’ll also send regular photo and message updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: I used to operate a rescue and shelter outside of Atlanta. I have experience with all types of animals in all types of conditions. Familiar with special needs, dietary restrictions, after surgery care, blind animals and more. I have always been an animal lover and I currently have 3 dogs I would like to make pet care my full time job. I currently do some side work in the construction field but would really enjoy spending all my time with the pets if possible I have a fenced in yard and two fully separated areas of the house and garage that open into the yard that can accommodate any animals who aren’t comfortable around other pets. I let my dogs on the couches and beds and they have free reign of the house
About: I've raised and cared for my baby dog Lola also known as lolanaptimepartygirl since I was 10, pets have always played a very important role in my life. I love animals of all kinds and ages having 4 senior dogs of my own. I believe all animals deserve love and respect as they are not only friends but family, and it is truly an honor to get to exist in a world where we are able to connect with and care for such beautiful kind creatures. I work a part time job that's pretty flexible so I'm relatively available whenever. My schedule changes weekly so just let me know what you need and I'll make it work! I understand that concern for your pets safety is the most important aspect of pet sitting. I want you to have peace of mind while trusting me with your pet. I am very attentive and cautious when it comes to pet care. And I make sure every box is checked when it comes to safety! If you have any concerns when leaving your pet let me know and I will make sure we figure out a way to solve them.
About: I’ve always loved dogs and make sure to give them the best care possible. I want to take care of them as if they were my own. During the week, I work full-time and don’t have a lunch break, but I’m typically available after 4:15–4:30 PM, and I’m off at 3:00 PM on Fridays. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a little extra company, I’m happy to help however I can. I make sure to always take dogs on walks, and give them extra care. I’m more than happy to sit outside with them (weather pending) and play or just hangout together.
“Hannah is amazing. She goes over and above during her dog walks and has been extraordinarily flexible with her schedule. Our little Sadie loves her and we appreciate her so much!”

“Stephanie was absolutely fabulous! She was very attentive and sent frequent updates with amazing pictures of our dog having fun and socializing with the other dogs. She administered allergy medication and provided lots of extra attention during a thunderstorm which is always anxiety producing for our dog. When we returned, our dog was happy to see us and tired from the fun weekend, but also very relaxed and back to her normal energy level the next morning. I would highly recommend Stephanie and will definitely use her services again!!”
“Kijah did a great job taking care of Rocky! She was communicative, caring and sent regular photo updates to let us know he was doing well. It was nice to know he was in good hands!”
