Highly-rated overnight sitters - Irving
“Our dog hadn't been to a sitter in years. He had a great time and looks forward to a return visit with his new friends. Christie was great at keeping us updated with photos and updates.”
“We had to find a sitter on fairly short notice for a 2 week vacation. I was really nervous about using this app and leaving my puppy with someone i didnt know. Katlynn was so easy to work with and accomodating. She sent me photos every day and and he came home happy and healthy. I will definately book with Katlynn again, if she'll have him :)”
“Thank you for taking such good care of Mochi. We appreciated the pics and the updates. It’s like Mochi had her vacation while we were away in vacation! We had such peace of mind while Kris and family were looking after our dog!”
“Alexandra was AMAZING!! We were in town for our wedding and she took such wonderful care of our puppy for the weekend. She was even so kind to bring him to the venue so we could get pictures with him. Would highly recommend!!”
“Janelle is outstanding. We have used rover in many states during our travels through the last several years as full time travelers and Janelle is the best!! Great communication and care. Would seek her out whenever possible.”
“Breslin had a wonderful time with Christina and Micheal! They provided consistent updates throughout the stay with pictures and videos of our little guy having fun. They treated Breslin like one of their own and we truly appreciate that. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter! Thanks again!”
“Tasha and her family showed a great deal of love and attention to my puppy! Lots of snuggles <3 I received regular updates and photos throughout the day which I enjoyed. Thank you!”
“Emily took great care of my Dobermann for 8 days. She took him on walks every day and he was able to socialize with her dogs and kids. She was very attentive with his feeding and diet concerns and sent me daily pictures. He seemed very happy in her care.”
“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!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we are so happy we found Suraya, she was amazing! She kept our golden, Charlie for 7 days and provided updates and pictures the entire time. He was just as happy when we picked him up as he was when we dropped him off. We will definitely be using Suraya again for our future dog sitting needs and highly recommend her to anyone looking for care ☺️”
“This was our second time having Anne care for our dog at her house while we were out of town for a week. Anne is so personable and you can tell she really loves caring for these dogs and takes the trust families are giving her seriously. I appreciate how laid back Anne is, adjusting to each dog's own personality and quirks :) Our dog gets a little home sick but I always know Anne is loving on him as if he were her own and sends us updates and pictures frequently to put us at ease. We will definitely continue to book with Anne in the future!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was young and have experience taking care of a variety of breeds. We have a safe, caring environment for pups that will make them feel like they are at home! We are available for boarding on the weekends, and can watch dogs during the week, but will not be home from 8-3. We have safe spaces for pups to relax during the day. We have a Shih Tzu, Woodson, that stays on our main floor with us most times. We do not have a fenced in yard, so we let him out on a leash. We live in a small neighborhood with little traffic. It is ideal for taking dogs on walks, and our neighbors either leash their dogs or have electric fences. Very safe!
“Terry and Chuckie took EXCELLENT care of Max during his stay. He needed additional care for his eye condition and they immediately stepped up to meet all of his needs. Terry sent several updates throughout the day which helped put this dog mom at ease. Looking forward to his next stay with them!”
“Jenn is PHENOMENAL. My Coco loved her the moment they met, and it was apparent in every single photo that Jenn was taking amazing care of my fur baby! I highly recommend Jenn and I personally will be going to her anytime I need to board my dog! The photos she takes of your fur baby should be on a poster; they’re THAT good! ♥️”
“This is my pups first time staying with Averi. She sent daily updates along with photos so I could relax knowing my dog was in good hands. I will definitely have my pup stay with her again! Thank you!”
“Amber was absolutely phenomenal with my kitty! This was my first time using Rover and I was definitely nervous dropping off my cat with someone, but Amber eased any stress I had. She sent lots of photos and videos and kept me updated throughout the days while I was gone. She put out all of the toys that I brought for her and I could tell that she really took the time to keep my cat entertained :) I highly recommend Amber for any pet sitting needs! I will definitely be rebooking for my next vacation!”
“Jayme's family takes such good care of Sven and he loves spending time with them - always comes back himself, like he's been home the whole time. I know they also take care of other dogs in between Sven's visits - I imagine Jayme's family blesses a lot of other families and their dogs too. :)”
“We left our pug with Sherri and her family and were so happy we did! Sherri took exceptional care of our pet and we could tell that she was in such good hands. I highly recommend Sherri. She was exceedingly conscientious and caring and Junebug came back to us happy and healthy!!”
“My pup had some issues while boarding but Chelsea was great taking care of him while we were away and handled the situation professionally and lovingly. Thanks Chelsea!”

“Michelle did an incredible job caring for my cat Carl, she had great communication, she followed all instructions carefully, treated Carl like family, sent several great pictures, and left detailed notes after the drop-ins. I highly recommend booking with Michelle!”

“Grace was so good with my cat! She had great communication, was able to take a last minute booking and took so many great pictures of my cat! Would definitely book with her again!”
About: I’ve owned and have taken care of multiple animals throughout the years! From house animals to some animals. I love our furry friends! :) . I’m working a part-time job currently where I work every other weekend, I’ll be able to stop in throughout the day on the days I do and don’t work! I have 2 friendly dogs, 2 friendly cats, a rabbit and a rooster! I keep them all safe and healthy, and I have a great bond with them!
About: What sets me apart is the care, attention, and trust I bring to every pet I look after. I understand that pets are family, and I treat each one with the same love, patience, and respect I would want for my own. I take pride in being dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to following each pet’s unique routine. I’m comfortable providing extra care for senior pets, pets with special needs, and those who may need medications or additional patience and reassurance. I also believe the little things matter—from keeping food and water areas clean, refreshing litter boxes, maintaining a tidy home, and noticing small changes in your pet’s behavior that may be important. My biggest priority is communication. I love sending regular photo and video updates so you can feel connected and confident that your pets are happy, safe, and receiving the attention they deserve. I don’t just watch pets—I build trust with them and their families.
“Jillian did a wonderful job caring for my two cats and also my flock of chickens while we were away on vacation. She sent daily photos and detailed updates. It was so reassuring knowing my pets were in good hands. I will absolutely book Jillian again for future vacations!”
“Sara was awesome; did everything we asked of her and more. She was not intimidated by our protective cats and we look forward to using her again in the future. I'm sure they will remember her (:”
About: Hi! I’m an animal lover with a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for animals of all kinds. I grew up helping my great-grandma on her farm with training Border Collies, which taught me the importance of patience, consistency, communication, and building trust with dogs. I’ve also trained my own service dog and currently share my home with three dogs, including a puppy. In addition to my dogs, I care for a special-needs cat, two rabbits, 15 rats, and a betta fish. Caring for animals with different personalities, ages, and needs has taught me to be attentive, adaptable, and respectful of each animal as an individual. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, a slower-paced stroll, extra patience, or simply some companionship, I’ll take the time to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I know how important it is to trust someone with a beloved pet, and I’ll treat your furry family member with the same care and attention I give my own. I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and your pet!
About: I work from home and would love to hangout with your pets! I’ve always had pets in the home from cats to birds to dogs. I have had a ten year old cat who had diabetes so I’m trained in injections and medications. My dogs back in Texas are pit bulls so I’m used to large lovable doggies :) I currently have a one year old golden doodle who loves to play with friends! I work from home so pets don’t go unattended and always have someone to hangout with. I am free most weekends and my significant other is also home to help out with high energy pups. :) I have walking trails around my apartment and wooded areas out back. My partner and I love to go on walks when weather permitting and would love to take your furry friend with us.
About: I’ve taken care of big & small dogs and even cats of many kinds & sizes too. Whatever is needed, I make sure it gets done properly and that the animals are happy. This is something for me to do in my free time, I work part time and am going to school. I can be flexible with notice. I have a very large property for dogs to run around on, however it is not fenced so a leash or something is needed for when outside.
About: I’ve had at least one pet cat for as long as I can remember and I truly think cats are the best. I currently live and travel with my senior rescue cat and bff, Ducky. Ducky has FIV and has required a lot of care over the years, and I’ve been happy to do it. I respect the unique personalities and boundaries of all cats and love meeting new kitties. Oh, and I’m more than used to the occasional slappiness of any feline friend lol!
“Kelley was absolutely wonderful! She came over beforehand to meet Koda, which gave me such peace of mind. She was incredibly reliable and kept me updated on when she would arrive and how each drop-in visit went. She spent time playing with Koda and sent me the sweetest pictures, which I loved receiving! She even went above and beyond by bringing in an Amazon package that had been delivered while I was away. I truly appreciated how thoughtful and dependable she was. I highly recommend Kelley and will definitely be using her again in the future! ❤️”
About: I’ve helped dog-sit my neighbor’s pups over the last 10 years and have loved every encounter with them. I recently lost my best friend (border collie mutt) of 13 years, and am looking to help any other owners out!! I love running with dogs, so if you have an energetic one that needs exercise I am happy to help! I am also comfortable walking, playing, stopping in, feeding, conducting potty breaks, and spending the night with all pets! I have a full time job (8-4) that has flexible hours and sometimes I work from home. I am available on the weekends to house sit and stay the night with your pup. I am available to pet-sit in your home and replicate your pet’s typical schedules and trainings, and whatever you need that is communicated to me!
About: Biscuit is my sweet cat who I’ve loved and cared for over the past 2 years. I understand how essential a consistent routine is for cats. I’m experienced with sticking to strict feeding schedules, keeping litter boxes spotless, giving medication if needed, and offering patient affection whether your cat is energetic or shy.
About: Neighbors and clients have trusted me in their home to safely care for their cats & I have done just that. It’s a joy and an honor to be able to care for animals this way. It’s a natural dopamine booster for me, as well!
About: We’ve had a family puppy for as long as I can remember! My brother and I do lots of volunteering between nearby shelters and we also do watch other dogs. My aunt has two German Shepards and a pit-bull that I watch quite often so I have experience with bigger dogs as well. I’m currently working a full time job from 8:30-4:30 PM, M-F. I can watch a dog any day during the week and or overnight as long as they can go that long without potty breaks! If the house is nearby I can go on my lunches to let the pets out :) We currently have an electric fence and colar for our puppy and are very cautious any time letting him out. I will give the same care for your puppy any time I am around it!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Irving
“Dick and Deborah were amazing. Opie had so much fun in the 6 hours he was there, he was sleeping before we even got to the first stop sign. The whole family was so sweet to him and gave him so much lovin. If we ever need a dog sitter again in the GR area, they'll be the only sitters we'll use.”
“They were so efficient and accommodating coming right to the car to get our little one and deliver him back to us. You can tell they really know what they are doing.”

About: Your pets are family, and I treat them that way. From dogs and cats to pigs, chickens, cows, and birds, I have spent my entire life caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. Even as a kid, I was the neighborhood’s go-to pet sitter, riding my bike around town to feed, play with, and care for everyone's pets. I love what I do, and I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry (or feathered!) family members in someone else's hands, and take this responsibility very seriously. To give you peace of mind, I will customize my updates and keep in touch as much or as little as you prefer. I do drop in visits, pet day care, and boarding in my home. We are a homeschool family, and usually home. My children love animals and we love playing with new animals whenever we can. We love to go for walks and hang out in our yard with our dog, pigs, and chickens. We have frequently watched a dog, and she fit in very well here-- we leashed her for potty breaks, crated her when we had to leave, and she roamed the house while we were home.
“Kathy has been wonderful taking care of my two doggos. She really works to understand my dogs' needs and what they're trying to tell her. She really treats them like there her owns dogs and part of the family. She has been nothing short of amazing in helping me curb some unwanted behaviors at home. When I go out of town in the future, I will be at ease knowing she's taking care of them.”
About: Hi, I'm Jill! Dogs have been part of my life since I can remember. I've spent years caring for and connecting with dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Friends and family often call me the "dog whisperer" because I seem to naturally build trust with dogs, whether they're shy, anxious, energetic, independent, or just need a little extra patience. I also have a special appreciation for senior dogs and understand their unique needs, routines, and comfort requirements. Your pup will be welcomed into a loving home with Sunny, my friendly chocolate Lab, a large-fenced yard, a doggie door, and plenty of supervised playtime and attention throughout the day. There is also optional swimming in the river behind my home. As a full-time REALTOR® with a flexible schedule, I'm home or nearby most of the time, so your dog will enjoy companionship, exercise, and plenty of affection rather than being left alone for long periods. I believe every dog is an individual. Whether your dog loves to play, explore, cuddle, or simply relax in a calm environment, I'll take the time to learn their personality and routine, so they feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you're away. My home is where dogs aren't just watched—they're welcomed, understood, and loved. 🐾 I am a fully time REALTOR® with a flexible schedule. I spend much of my day working from home or close by, which means your dog won't be left along for long periods. I have a fenced-in back yard and one very friendly female Chocolate Lab named Sunny who loves to play. I can easily crate your dog if needed. Dogs sleep in my room in a crate or on the floor at night
“Thank you for taking such good care of Ivy yesterday. Unfortunately she had multiple seizures during the night and is not able to return today. I wanted you to know that it was nothing that you did to cause the cancellation. We hope to see you again soon.”
“Can’t say enough good things about Dale and how he cares for Cashew! 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for an awesome and reliable person to care for their loved ones!”
“Maggie was incredibly accommodating and patient with me and last minute request. My husky loved playing with her Luna, and I love the idea of her being in a home instead of a concrete kennel. I also liked that her sons gave my pets attention while they were there. 100% would recommend Maggie to anyone!”
“SHERRI IS AMAZING! She took my booking last minute and was SO attentive! She has a lovely dog Goro loved playing with and a fenced in yard but she also gave him walks which I thought was so amazing. 10/10 best Rovers experience I’ve had :)”
About: Hello! Thank you for considering me for one of the most important roles in your pets life. I grew up with pets, volunteered at the humane society taking dogs out for runs, and now continue a life of advocacy for all animals! I currently work with both cat and dog rescues and pet sit often for friends and family. Having used pet sitting services before, I understand what it is like to put your trust in someone else - and will make you and your pet my number one priority. I will always ensure you receive updates and confirmation of the fun your pet is having. I look forward to connecting and spending time with your fur baby! I am a mom to an active toddler. We love getting outside as much as we can, and staying busy inside when the weather isn’t so inviting. We are in an apartment community that has safe sidewalks and lots of green areas (or snow!) for dogs to explore. We live on the second floor so your dog should be comfortable with stairs as well.
“Katrina took excellent care of my dog Blu. She was consistent with communication and updates about how Blu was doing. She made sure to keep him comfortable and took him for walks throughout the day. I would absolutely recommend allowing Katrina to take care of your fur baby!”

“Taya was the best! I am so happy I found the best sitter for my dog. She was so flexible especially with respect to the pick up and drop off timings which was very important for me. She also sent pictures and videos during the stay regularly. I will definitely approach her for any future boarding of my dog and I will highly recommend her to others too.”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Irving
About: I’ve been helping my parents raise dogs since I was around 10 years old, our first dog being a collie we rescued as she wasn’t being treated well with her initial owners. We took her in and got her cleaned up, took care of the fleas she had, found her a good diet, and gave her lots of love and attention through it all. We took her on camping trips, out on the water to go fishing, out on walks and to get pup cups at the ice cream shop, her favorite place being my granny’s house. Alongside her, we raised three more dogs when they were puppies, each one two years apart. 2 of them are Australian shepherds, and one is a husky, all girls and grew to form their own little pack, respecting each other’s place and playing happily in a big fenced in back yard. We supported our collie till her last breath as she was elderly, and even as she was so old, she always had her usual, laid back and quirky personality. Even now, I continue to help my parents take care of our dogs, as they’re not just pets, they’re our family, our fur babies, even in they’re old stages of life, they’ll always be our little babies in our hearts. So rest assured, your fur baby will be 110% safe and cared for with me, maybe even a bit spoiled! I’m sticking with Rover full time for a while! I’ve tried Camp Bow Wow, and found it isn’t the right work environment for me. I like providing services through Rover as I can better manage my schedule and get to know your fur babies more personally! With specific instructions written on paper, I have no issues accommodating to your pet’s needs in your home! I’m respectful during visits in others homes, treating them as my own and keeping spaces clean and tidy. With proper cleaning tools, I can clean up accidents on hard surfaces or rugs, I may need a demonstration on how to use a specific cleaning machine or vacuum depending on how complicated it is. I’m not allergic to any animal, or any breed, so pet hair doesn’t bother me! If need be, I am able to administer oral medications with proper instruction and demonstration. On walks I make sure to keep dogs close to me and away from the road, I carry doggy bags, and on hot days, I’ll carry a little folded up bowl that I can poor water in, so your baby stays hydrated!
“My two Scottie’s can be a lot to handle. One’s super energetic and the other is an anxious barker. Suraya provided me updates and pictures that set me at ease. The daily two walks, while i worked, kept them happy and tired! Thank you for helping during a holiday week!”
About: I’ve owned and have taken care of multiple animals throughout the years! From house animals to some animals. I love our furry friends! :) .

“Jillian. was perfect with our puppy, Hershey. Hershey has a lot of energy and when Jillian. walked her she was so tired that the dog actually fell asleep on Jillian.‘s foot while we were chatting after the walk. This is what I had hoped for! I definitely recommend Jillian. as a very qualified and capable doggy care person.”
About: I know dogs very well. I used to pet sit when I was young and still do. I’ve had many dogs a few cats and some fish. I am currently not working at a place with a schedule. I have no human children. No school, my schedule is open. I have time to meet pets needs. I have a nice yard on the lake, I leash up the fur babies and walk about a mile twice a day. Trips out the yard I’m between. I have an electric fence I haven’t put in yet.
“Absolutely super. I would not hesitate to use her again if we were in the area. Traveling thru and went over to Mackinac for the day and decided to leave the dog and wanted her to have some walks and stimulation.”
About: I may be new to Rover, but I am not new to caring for others. I am a lifelong dog owner and currently have a dog of my own, so I understand daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, and providing a safe, loving environment. I am also a parent and work in childcare, which has given me extensive experience with responsibility, patience, and following specific instructions. I’m comfortable sticking to routines, recognizing needs, and providing attentive care. I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with a loved one. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I give my own family, and I’m happy to follow any instructions to keep your pet comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine, especially long-term and weekend care. I’m available Thursday nights through Sundays, which allows me to provide consistent, attentive care without rushing or overbooking. As a dog mom, I understand the importance of routines, exercise, feeding schedules, and recognizing pets’ needs. I’m used to planning my days around caregiving and making sure everyone feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I have a large yard for supervised outdoor time. Since it’s not fenced, dogs are always closely monitored and leashed as needed. I have a friendly dog who enjoys company, and two children who love animals and are taught to be gentle and respectful. Pets are never left unattended. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my priority.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was a child, I also have experience with many others, if you have any questions please ask I'm currently a stay at home mom with a daughter in fifth grade, I have plenty of time on my hands to care and love on animals I will come to your home and provide the exact care that you have asked for, potty breaks, feeding, walks, or whatever they enjoy doing I will be happy to oblige, I do require pets to be up to date on vaccines and be able to show proof

I’ve also trained my own service dog and currently share my home with three dogs, including a puppy. In addition to my dogs, I care for a special-needs cat, two rabbits, 15 rats, and a betta fish. Caring for animals with different personalities, ages, and needs has taught me to be attentive, adaptable, and respectful of each animal as an individual.

I know how important it is to trust someone with a beloved pet, and I’ll treat your furry family member with the same care and attention I give my own. I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and your pet! I currently work Monday through Friday from 8 AM–5 PM, so my weekday availability is primarily before or after work, depending on the service and location. I have full availability on weekends and can be flexible with scheduling. I’m currently taking on extra work to help save for my dog’s upcoming surgery, so I’m excited to provide dependable, caring service while working toward an important goal for my family. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure I can give your pet the time and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities and needs, including training my own service dog and raising a puppy. I understand that every dog is different, so I take the time to learn their routines, triggers, boundaries, and individual needs. I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding walks, feeding, medications, access to your home, and any special care your pet requires. I’m also comfortable caring for animals with different needs, thanks to my experience with my own dogs, a special-needs cat, rabbits, rats, and fish. I believe good communication is an important part of pet care. I’ll keep you informed about how your pet is doing and will reach out promptly if I notice anything unusual or have concerns.
About: I have 2 dogs of my own that I have raised since they were puppies. My family has always had dogs that I helped out with throughout my life as well. Very flexible schedule and able to accommodate a lot of different times for people with busier schedules! Currently working as a real estate agent and work from home most days so I have plenty of flexibility to do drop ins and walks as necessary! I will come to you to check in or walk your pets. I will spend a minimum of 30 minutes with them each visit. I have 2 dogs of my own that I dedicate my time to and would treat your pet as I do my own
About: I have 5 dogs of my own, ranging from a cattle dog to a pitbull.I have no problem taking care of any type of animal and I have experience in all fields of care, including bathing, walking, nail-trimming, and more. I’m free from 6am-11pm on weekdays! I do work full-time but my boss is lenient and he’d have no problem with me tending to your furry friends! I personally have 5 dogs in a non-fenced in yard but they are all very well trained. I would prefer to keep your animals in the comfort of their own home though due to my dogs being very playful, if your dogs are comfortable being in a high-energy setting it would be no problem but they don’t need added stress from my rowdy bunch.
About: Pet sitting isn’t just a job for me—it’s my heart. I’m a deeply compassionate, reliable sitter who treats every pet as if they were my own. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs of all personalities, with a special gift for anxious, shy, and senior pets who need extra patience and reassurance. I’m currently enrolled in animal behavior coursework, which helps me read body language, respect boundaries, and create a calm, stress-free environment for every animal in my care. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or prefers quiet companionship, I meet them exactly where they are. I’m attentive to routines, medications, feeding instructions, and subtle changes in behavior—and I communicate clearly so you always feel confident and at ease while you’re away. From cozy cuddle sessions to gentle play, enrichment, and structured walks, your pet’s comfort and safety always come first. Animals are my happy place, and it’s an honor to care for them 💗🐶🐱 I'm currently enrolled in The Animal Behavior Institute online. And my schedule is very flexible, as I can study my Carnivore behavior course anyplace there is Internet. I take my pet sitting job very seriously. It's my honor and responsibility to make sure all of your baby's needs are met. I follow any instructions and always double check locks, bring in the mail and take out garbage if needed. My priority is the safety and wellness of your precious baby. I always check in and give updates with photos!
About: I worked for five years as a veterinary assistant/technician at a facility that offered boarding, where I became kennel manager. I'm confident working with seniors, medical cases, behavorial cases, and puppies. For all weekend drop-ins, my partner Alex will be accompanying me. I will be doing all pet care, but for my safety he'll be accompanying me. He'll be there to provide a little extra affection and play-time for your pets if they're interested. My schedule is open! I am a stay st home wife so I'll be able to devote plenty of time to your pets. I will have my partner, Alex, accompany me to all first visits for safety. He will also accompany me on any weekend drop ins. All pet care will be done by me, but Alex will give them a little extra love when applicable. I'm used to doing various different routines to care for pets. I have a dog of my own who's very friendly- if your pup needs a friend we can set up a play date! I'm mostly excited to offer one on one care for your pets in a way I was unable to do at a boarding facility.
About: No dogs too big, no dogs too small, I love them all! Hi I’m Alaina! I’ve been my family and friends go to pet sitter for over 15 years. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes and energy levels. I take pride in assuring I am your dogs new best friend by the time I leave your home. I have a reputation for providing top notch care for every animal I have the pleasure of watching. With my reliability, excellent communication skills, and my deep sense of responsibility, Im here to ensure your animal gets the love and attention they deserve. I work part time Monday-Thursday. I am able to provide full time pet care Thursday-Sunday. Whether that is staying in your home full time or doing drop ins as needed. I am capable in doing anything you ask of me. Whether that is administering medications, feeding three times a day, taking your dog for walks or just giving them the time and attention they deserve.
About: Hello my name is Justin L, I am 39 years, single, no kids and work full time. I lost my dog about 5 years ago and it was very hard to deal with. I am not ready to commit to another one yet, so I figured I might as well get my dog fix by helping others out on their vacation or their busy schedules. I always grew up with dogs and have had them all from small to large. Dogs are a mans best friend is the most true statement and I will always provide the best care for those dogs. Life would be so boring without dogs in it. I hope at some point in the future to get my own dog. I am available after I am off work. Depending where I’m working and where you are located I can possibly swing by during lunch time as well. I like to listen to what the owners say as far as what their preference for how they want their pet to behave. Any parameters with the house they typically write them up and I keep them updated throughout the day with photos of the pets.

“Our dog hadn't been to a sitter in years. He had a great time and looks forward to a return visit with his new friends. Christie was great at keeping us updated with photos and updates.”
“We had to find a sitter on fairly short notice for a 2 week vacation. I was really nervous about using this app and leaving my puppy with someone i didnt know. Katlynn was so easy to work with and accomodating. She sent me photos every day and and he came home happy and healthy. I will definately book with Katlynn again, if she'll have him :)”

“This was our first time using Rover and we are so happy we found Suraya, she was amazing! She kept our golden, Charlie for 7 days and provided updates and pictures the entire time. He was just as happy when we picked him up as he was when we dropped him off. We will definitely be using Suraya again for our future dog sitting needs and highly recommend her to anyone looking for care ☺️”
“This was our second time having Anne care for our dog at her house while we were out of town for a week. Anne is so personable and you can tell she really loves caring for these dogs and takes the trust families are giving her seriously. I appreciate how laid back Anne is, adjusting to each dog's own personality and quirks :) Our dog gets a little home sick but I always know Anne is loving on him as if he were her own and sends us updates and pictures frequently to put us at ease. We will definitely continue to book with Anne in the future!”
“This is my pups first time staying with Averi. She sent daily updates along with photos so I could relax knowing my dog was in good hands. I will definitely have my pup stay with her again! Thank you!”
“Jayme's family takes such good care of Sven and he loves spending time with them - always comes back himself, like he's been home the whole time. I know they also take care of other dogs in between Sven's visits - I imagine Jayme's family blesses a lot of other families and their dogs too. :)”
“We left our pug with Sherri and her family and were so happy we did! Sherri took exceptional care of our pet and we could tell that she was in such good hands. I highly recommend Sherri. She was exceedingly conscientious and caring and Junebug came back to us happy and healthy!!”
“My pup had some issues while boarding but Chelsea was great taking care of him while we were away and handled the situation professionally and lovingly. Thanks Chelsea!”
“Franny had the BEST time. Kailee and her kids were so incredibly sweet with our puppy, and they were so welcoming and accommodating to her young puppy needs. 10/10 recommend! Franny absolutely loved their huge backyard too.”
“Dan and Kelly are awesome. They sent pics and updates which we loved. By the end of his 5 days Pocket got into the groove there and did great. Matter of fact he loved it so much that he was pouty the entire day after we brought him home. It is hard to leave pets. With Dan and Kelly one can relax and know all is well. Super grateful. Thank you to Dan, Kelly and the gang.”
“Mabel had another wonderful weekend with Melvin! We appreciate his communication and obvious love for dogs! We won’t hesitate to go to him again for our dog boarding needs!”
“Wow, what can I say… Jill ( & Sunny :))was amazing with our 4 yr old yellow lab, Callie! She was so loving and all about making a great experience for Callie. Her home was perfect and such a nice setting back near a nice river with a large yard with a fenced in area as well. Our dog could use her doggy door (once she got the hang of it ;) )and go outside to the fenced in yard and play/potty/whatever ….as she needed. Jill was great about taking walks, letting her swim in the river at her property, having playtime and providing constant attention and love. And her dog Sunny is so loving and was a great playmate for Callie. :). Such a reassuring feeling to have her with Jill while we traveled. Knowing she was getting constant attention, love, care, exercise, and play. I will never use a kennel or doggy care center again as long as Jill is available, thanks Jill ! :-)”
