“We had such a positive experience with Victoria! She went above and beyond with communication throughout Charlie’s stay and when Charlie wasn’t seeming to be feeling good, she reached out to let us know and even took her to the vet for us. She was able to care for Charlie, provide her with her medication for what turned out to be a double ear infection and when I picked her up, she seemed very understanding of the medications purpose and dosing instructions. Best dog sitter we have ever had, hands down! We will definitely be contacting Victoria again for our next trip away!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "I cannot recommend Laura enough! From the moment I met her, I knew my pup was in great hands. She took the time to understand my dog's needs and personality, and it was clear that Laura and her entire family genuinely love animals. During their stay, Ruby was treated like royalty! Laura sent me regular updates with adorable photos and messages, which put my mind at ease while I was away. They took Ruby on daily walks, played lots of games, and even taught her a couple new tricks! When I returned, Ruby was happy, healthy, and clearly had a great time. I will definitely be booking with Laura and her services again in the future. Thank you for being such an amazing dog sitter, person and dog mama while I was gone. You Rock Laura!! Thank You”
“Our dog loves Leah. She starts wagging her tail as soon as we arrive at her home. Leah is wonderful to work with. She sends pictures updating you on your dog’s adventures.”
“Matt and Jessica were AMAZING! They sent lots of pics and videos of him having the time of his life. It's like he was having his own vacation while WE were on vacation. Can't imagine using any other boarding service besides them from now on!”
“This was my first time using Rover and due to some medical needs, was very last minute. I booked with Shannon and she did an awesome job with my frenchie. I received pictures every day and periodical updates on how she was doing. I would definitely work with her again!”
“Rhu had a great stay with Stephanie. I received a picture everyday and she got to play all day in the big beautiful fenced in back yard. I would bring Rhu back withlut thinking twice about it.”
About: I've had and helped care for many different animals since I was a child including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, chinchillas, and chickens. We have 2 little boys in our home as well as a laid back newfoundland dog and 2 cats. Can administer medicine if needed and will try every trick in the book if needed to make it happen. I work part time from home so I will be home almost 24/7 besides the occasional errands. Animals can be with me as much as they would like. Dogs can be taken out and walked as often as needed. Animals can be allowed the run of the house or we also have a seperate downstairs area when some alone time is preferred or needed. Cats can be enclosed in a large quiet room with a tall gate if they prefer with seperate litter box. Crates are available for use upon request.
“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.”
“Marty is first rate. She is definitely a Star Sitter. She was great in communication, sending me texts, photos and videos of Dexter. Clearly, she took good care of him, he was in good hands. Dexter made friends and spent time outside, which he loves. One of my concerns was that Dexter got his medications, and Marty made sure he did. Without doubt, she is my choice for Dexter's lodging and daycare. She has my highest recommendation.”
“Diane took wonderful care of Rosie for us. You can tell she truly loves caring for fur babies. Her very large fenced in back yard is wonderful for safe outdoor play time. She texted pictures and responds very quickly to texts which gave me great piece of mind knowing our pup was in good hands while we were away. We will definitely use Diane in the future!”
“Andrew and his partner were absolutely fantastic for our cat. We were in a situation where we needed our cat of our home for some renovations and they kept us updated with how we was doing all day and with some lovely pictures. If we’re ever in need again I’ll for sure be looking Andrew up again. Thank you!”
“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.”
“This is our 2nd time using Toni and we couldn’t be happier with her! She is easy to communicate with and we love the updates we get. We always love seeing pictures! This really helps us feel more comfortable while we are away from our pup! She is very accommodating and has a great setup! Toni is also a pro at giving meds and eye drops! We will definitely use her again!”
“They were so comforting and took amazing care of my dog, Mila. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands. They kept me updated with pictures and messages, which meant a lot. I will absolutely use them again! Thank you Barbara and Dirk.🐾🐾”
“Brittany was super sweet to our doggy. Always communicating with us, sending us photos, and keeping us updated. We are so grateful that Luca could stay with her, happy and safe while we were a part of a wedding this weekend. We are so happy and highly recommend her to take care of your pups.”
“Taylor and family are always such a blessing for us! I know I can always leave our fur baby with them and feel 100% confident that she is in great hands! Taylor provides continuous updates and pictures throughout our pet’s stay giving us constant peace of mind :)”
About: I've had pets my entire life. It has been quite some time since I have owned a dog. I had the best dog of my life and since she passed away I don't think I can endure that loss again. However, I still crave interactions with man's best friend. I very recently lost my 19 year old kitty which has been difficult but I still have a 12yr old rescued cat with bad behaviors lol. I am experienced with providing oral medications and injections. I owned a diabetic cat that unfortunately died from cancer. I also have fish and cardene shrimp. I have cared for reptiles, birds, rats, mice, and other small furry friends. I am an RN but need to spend more time with critters to make my life more balanced and enjoyable. Sure, overtime as an RN pays better, but time spent with animals brings me joy. I have experience training both cats and dogs. I am a remote worker and therefore have a great deal of flexibility. Let me know your needs. I will do my best to accommodate your pet's needs. I keep my cat in the bedroom due to bad behaviors and extreme anxiety making it easy to care for another animal in our home if needed. I do not have a fenced yard but I live in a beautiful subdivision for long walks. I prefer to watch pets in their home to reduce anxiety but if your pet is very social and you prefer they stay in our home, our home is very pet friendly. Our whole family has cats and dogs and they always come to visit and get spoiled. Animals are allowed on furniture and run of our large home.

“Katie was beyond fantastic!! She made sure to get to know us and our (6) cats prior. And while visiting them, she took extra attention/time with our old lady cat to ensure she ate enough. Gave lots of scratches to our other furrbabies, sent us pics each day, and even cleaned up some (not so pleasant) ‘cat mess’ for us. Will be requesting her again any time we have to travel!!”
“Everything went great! It really gave me peace of mind to know Becky was checking on our cats, and getting updates on how they are doing. Came home to happy kitties. What a relief!”

About: I’ve been taking care of my own cat since I was 5! She’s now 13. I'm very used to giving cats medicine because she’s had her far share of illnesses over the years. I’m also familiar with giving cats shots because I used to own a diabetic cat I would help give shots. I would be okay with cleaning litter boxes, or any other kind of cat care you need!
“Kati was awesome! It was our first time booking with Rover and she put our mind at ease right away with our first meet and greet. I would definifley book her again. Our dog absolutely loved her! She took great care of him. She was great at communicating and was very responsive. She did everything we asked and gave our dog lots of love while we were gone.

I really try to be cognitive of your pet's needs and wants as they are almost entirely reliant on us/me to have their needs and wants met.
“This was our first time using Rover, we found Tyra listed and couldn't be more pleased! She was so friendly and did everything we asked her to do. We have become the main food source for a little family of feral cats and she came over and put their food out everyday and then stopped by later in the day to retrieve the empty dishes. We highly recommend her services!!”

About: I can provide care for complex needs animals, small animals and giant animals. I can administer medication even to animals who might not be enthusiastic about it or any other medical needs. I am currently only doing college classes and rover so I have open availability to care for your family members and all the love to give them I have a 4 foot tall fully fenced in half acre yard with a Bernese mountain dog puppy who can keep your babies company along with two dog friendly cats
“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!”
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, 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 for any boarding 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* **DROP OFFS/PICK UP- Please do not show up early without talking to us prior, If you are going to be late, please let us know asap, we operate around your guys times selected and schedule other bookings/meet n greets around drop offs and pick up ***

About: I’ve had cats my whole life and have been taken care of dogs for 2. I have a husky at home and a yorkie. Also have a cat and bearded dragon! I’m currently a graduate student working from home. That means I have a lot of flexibility and time to fill! Taking care of your pet will mean the world to me! I have a fenced yard so they have plenty of space to run around. I have a husky that is about 6 years old, a 2 year old Yorkie, and a 3 year old cat that roam around the house. Although it will be very easy to keep them separate if needed!h
About: With over 25 years of experience in caring for dogs and horses, I approach pet sitting with an understanding of animal behavior and a compassionate approach. Whether your furry friend is a playful pup or an anxious companion, I use positive reinforcement techniques to create a safe and nurturing environment. I have a friendly 4-year-old golden retriever, Lily, who gets along wonderfully with other dogs, providing a perfect playmate for your pup. I regularly care for friends and family's pets, and have watched dogs recovering from surgeries and in need of medication. Our spacious 2.5-acre property offers plenty of room for dogs to roam, explore, and enjoy playtime in a safe setting. From daily walks to playing fetch in the yard, your pets will be in loving hands. Having used Rover to book pet care for my dog, Lily, I understand that leaving your dog can be nerve-wracking. Let me provide the peace of mind you deserve while you're away, knowing your beloved dog is receiving top-notch care! Working from home allows me to spend time with your dog throughout the day and attend to them as much as needed. I walk every day and am happy to take your pup along with me if they love walks too! With 2.5 acres and a super friendly, welcoming golden retriever, Lily, I'd love to welcome your dog into our home. We want your dog(s) to cozy in and feel at home, and welcome them sleeping in our room or in their crate, however they are most comfortable.
“Great experience. Laura was waiting for Bryce and greeted him immediately. She sent pictures within an hour and I could tell he was behaving as always. Very comforting. And topper I sent a message when we would be there for pickup and she had him watching at the front door. Nice transition. I’m hopeful to use her frequently while I’m in town.”
About: I have been around pets my whole life. I had a beagle that was 2 when I was born so I grew up helping care for her. I have cared for turtles, fish, and a chameleon. Currently, I have a cat that I have raised from birth. I have helped my aunt with her two golden retrievers when she needed someone to take them out during the day and feed them while she was at work or away on vacation. For the past two summers, I have cared for my uncle's 12 year-old chocolate lab when their family is on vacation. She is a senior dog that needs a little more care and consideration. I am a recent high school graduate and my summer is open. I am attending Mott Community College in the fall, so I am also not going away to school. I plan to provide service to the client at their home. I currently live at home, so I can't care for animals at my house.

I also have the flexibility to stay home with your pet if necessary. I have 6 acres of property for your baby to explore but can keep on a leash if more comfortable roaming with me. If your baby is most comfortable in a crate or snuggling in bed either is fine with me.

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!”

“Kellie and Paige were both great with my dog. He’s a bigger dog and is kinda scared of meeting new people, and they were very patient with him and I on introductions and when they would come by to take him for walks. I also had several shift changes for the month I was here and they were great at communicating and flexible with their schedules, which was very kind. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.”

I also work at a doggy daycare and boarding facility where I take care of pups all ages and breeds.

About: Hi! 🤗 thanks for checking me out! I have a ton of experience with animals! I have experience in animal hospitals and doggy daycares alike 😃 Taking care of animals is where my heart is. I’ve always had multiple animals at a time. CPR and trauma experienced. I’m available all the time currently! Which means longer walks, play in the yard, or cuddles! I walk dogs full time so don’t be shy! I can’t watch anyone in my apartment, but I can come to your home or take them out and about! My attitude changes with each animal as I learn them. Most dogs I’m pretty playful with and have a lot of high energy play, some like to just sit next to a warm body on the couch and I can do that too.

“We had such a positive experience with Victoria! She went above and beyond with communication throughout Charlie’s stay and when Charlie wasn’t seeming to be feeling good, she reached out to let us know and even took her to the vet for us. She was able to care for Charlie, provide her with her medication for what turned out to be a double ear infection and when I picked her up, she seemed very understanding of the medications purpose and dosing instructions. Best dog sitter we have ever had, hands down! We will definitely be contacting Victoria again for our next trip away!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "I cannot recommend Laura enough! From the moment I met her, I knew my pup was in great hands. She took the time to understand my dog's needs and personality, and it was clear that Laura and her entire family genuinely love animals. During their stay, Ruby was treated like royalty! Laura sent me regular updates with adorable photos and messages, which put my mind at ease while I was away. They took Ruby on daily walks, played lots of games, and even taught her a couple new tricks! When I returned, Ruby was happy, healthy, and clearly had a great time. I will definitely be booking with Laura and her services again in the future. Thank you for being such an amazing dog sitter, person and dog mama while I was gone. You Rock Laura!! Thank You”
“Our dog loves Leah. She starts wagging her tail as soon as we arrive at her home. Leah is wonderful to work with. She sends pictures updating you on your dog’s adventures.”
“Matt and Jessica were AMAZING! They sent lots of pics and videos of him having the time of his life. It's like he was having his own vacation while WE were on vacation. Can't imagine using any other boarding service besides them from now on!”
“Rhu had a great stay with Stephanie. I received a picture everyday and she got to play all day in the big beautiful fenced in back yard. I would bring Rhu back withlut thinking twice about it.”
About: I've had and helped care for many different animals since I was a child including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, chinchillas, and chickens. We have 2 little boys in our home as well as a laid back newfoundland dog and 2 cats. Can administer medicine if needed and will try every trick in the book if needed to make it happen. I work part time from home so I will be home almost 24/7 besides the occasional errands. Animals can be with me as much as they would like. Dogs can be taken out and walked as often as needed. Animals can be allowed the run of the house or we also have a seperate downstairs area when some alone time is preferred or needed. Cats can be enclosed in a large quiet room with a tall gate if they prefer with seperate litter box. Crates are available for use upon request.
“Marty is first rate. She is definitely a Star Sitter. She was great in communication, sending me texts, photos and videos of Dexter. Clearly, she took good care of him, he was in good hands. Dexter made friends and spent time outside, which he loves. One of my concerns was that Dexter got his medications, and Marty made sure he did. Without doubt, she is my choice for Dexter's lodging and daycare. She has my highest recommendation.”
“Diane took wonderful care of Rosie for us. You can tell she truly loves caring for fur babies. Her very large fenced in back yard is wonderful for safe outdoor play time. She texted pictures and responds very quickly to texts which gave me great piece of mind knowing our pup was in good hands while we were away. We will definitely use Diane in the future!”
“Andrew and his partner were absolutely fantastic for our cat. We were in a situation where we needed our cat of our home for some renovations and they kept us updated with how we was doing all day and with some lovely pictures. If we’re ever in need again I’ll for sure be looking Andrew up again. Thank you!”
“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.”
“This is our 2nd time using Toni and we couldn’t be happier with her! She is easy to communicate with and we love the updates we get. We always love seeing pictures! This really helps us feel more comfortable while we are away from our pup! She is very accommodating and has a great setup! Toni is also a pro at giving meds and eye drops! We will definitely use her again!”
“They were so comforting and took amazing care of my dog, Mila. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands. They kept me updated with pictures and messages, which meant a lot. I will absolutely use them again! Thank you Barbara and Dirk.🐾🐾”
“Brittany was super sweet to our doggy. Always communicating with us, sending us photos, and keeping us updated. We are so grateful that Luca could stay with her, happy and safe while we were a part of a wedding this weekend. We are so happy and highly recommend her to take care of your pups.”
“Rachel did an amazing job with our dog. She kept us updated with how Louie was doing and sent us lots of pictures, which was great to see how he was doing. I really believe Louie enjoyed himself with Rachel and her family.”
“Lyndsey and Justin went above and beyond for our dog! I could tell from the first meeting that our dog was going to be in great hands! It certainly made our 10 days away much easier not having to worry about our girl! We received communication and many cute pictures of their young daughter giving our girl lots of love!! We Would highly recommend them for your dog, And we will certainly use them again! A huge thank you to this very sweet and loving family!”
“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.”
“We spent five days out of town visiting Dollywood and decided to try Rover for the first time. I went with Jolynn because of her great reviews and I wasn't disappointed. My pup can be a little high strung sometimes, so my wife and I were a bit worried he wouldn't adapt well. Turns out he loved it. No issues at all. Thanks for taking care of our guy! Can't recommend Jolynn enough.”
