“Joni is amazing! The first time I met her she told me she likes the dogs to feel like they’re on vacation too. My dogs had a wonderful time. Everyday I received a picture and video showing me what the dogs were up to. That was especially nice. She managed to get one of my dogs into the pool. And of course she has life jackets for my little dogs. Would highly recommend her.”
“I had a great first experience with Rover, thanks to Martha! Martha took amazing care of my dog for a whole week in her home. I was nervous about leaving him because he's had behavioral issues in the past, but it worked out really well! Martha was very responsive from the start and experienced with rescue dogs. Martha was very accommodating of Bumi's daily medication schedule and prescription diet, as well as his rescue quirks. She sent pictures and updates which were great comforts to me. Bumi was clearly very happy and comfortable while he was boarding. I will not hesitate to book Martha again!”
“Highly recommend! Our two dogs had a wonderful overnight stay. We received updates and photos throughout their visit, which made us feel so comfortable knowing they were in great hands. The care and attention they received were outstanding, and they came home happy and well cared for. We will definitely book again!”
“One issue - Stella was wayyyyyy too spoiled! We felt very comfortable with Michelle and she communicated well from the first meet and greet to the week long stay. You can tell she truly loves animals and we will use her again. Thanks for making her feel at home and we also appreciate the fact that there is only one client at a time.”
“Highly recommend! She took the stress of leaving your dog with strangers away right away. We did an initial meet and greet before confirming the booking. I didnt know what I was doing it was my first using the app and booking a service. She guided me on how to do it and honored the original price which was wrong. I dropped Davenchi off in the evening and I expected I wouldn't hear from Holly until the next day but she started updating me right away. I was able to rest easy the first night because she sent pics and let me know how he was adjusting. Everyday after that I got morning and evening updates with pics and sometimes midday updates if he made new friends or did something special. She even trained him a lil bit for me Hes a 4 month old puppy. Nothing but great things to say. The paw pedicures he received really won me over!”
“Andrew was seriously the BEST! I was super nervous because I had never tried boarding my cat anywhere, but Andrew provided a great place for Tomato to spend the day...so much so I don't think he wanted to leave! 😅”
“We had a great experience boarding our one year old husky with Toni for six nights. The facilities are impressive and Toni and her assistant Amy’s comfort and patience with our energetic and rambunctious dog put me at ease, as did seeing that she would have plenty of room to herself in her own spacious kennel and fenced in yards to run in”
“EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE!!! Their is no one I would trust with our most precious baby Winston ?. She not only took such great care of him, but also took pictures for me why he was in her care. She showed the love, compassion as if she knew him for along time. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER… to everyone. Thank you Greta you truly are the BEST !!!”
“Donielle is a phenomenal pet sitter! This was our first time leaving our dog, and we never worried for a minute. She has years of experience and took fantastic care of our pup. It felt like our dog was on her own vacation and having so much fun she didn't even miss us! I highly recommend Donielle for her professional and caring service.”
About: I have had animals in my home for my entire life. And I do truly enjoy spending time with all animals, They keep me active. I'm currently not working which leaves me lots of time to walk, play & nap with my dog and other dogs during the day time. I have a nice grassy with cement area fenced in yard with ample shade & a friendly dog to play with & to keep other dogs company.
“Sara and John Patrick took exceptional care of our senior girl. We received regular updates with photos of how she was doing and all of the love she was getting from the family. We are always hesitant to leave her with someone who isn't family, especially as she has gotten older, but we had no concerns after dropping her off. We will highly recommend them to friends and hope to rebook with them when the need arises.”
“Rosemary always seems to have a great time and comes back happy. Chris is friendly and easy to work with - really happy to have a place we can count on to board Rose and know she's in great hands. Thank you!”
“My dog Cooper was very relaxed and at home with Cheryl. I felt at ease with Cooper in her care with his special dietary needs and separation anxiety. I really appreciated how she accommodated my change in schedule due to unexpected travel delays. Definitely will rebook for future dog boarding.”
“Amazing environment. My dog has lots of room to run around as well as another playful dog so he was always active. Kimberly sent lots of pictures and my dog looked happy in every one of them.”
“Victoria has a clean house and a great yard for a dog . Her family is sweet and communication was excellent. The meet and greet went well and we finalized our booking and she sent pictures every day that made me feel reassured. She was attentive to all his needs and our needs and even picked him up and dropped him off. I would definitely use her services again. I have used Rover about four times in this was easily our best experience.”
“Jordan’s communication was top notch!!! Jordan was very attentive to my concerns and was flexible with our pick up/drop off schedule. Most importantly, I felt like Willard was in good hands for the short time we were away. Jordan sent texts and pictures of Willard and kept us updated throughout the stay. Jordan is great!! Highly recommended sitter!”
“She was fantastic with Luna. Jessica sent us tons of pictures and updates about Luna’s day & eating. She also kept Luna playing and happy. Jessica is professional and caring. Would book again.”
“Everything about this experience was great. Hope treated the dogs as if they were her own. Picking them up, they almost didn't want to leave. Highly recommend Hope and will contact her again when we need a sitter.”

“Krista went out of her way to make sure my dogs, Bugsy, Princess and Oso were comfortable and felt safe. She sent lots of photos, cleaned up after them and snuggled as if they were her own! I highly recommend her!”
“Kallie was INCREDIBLE! She gave me so many updates about the kitties while she house sat, it really made me feel so much less anxious about going away. It's clear that she really cares and truly has such a huge heart for the people and fur families that she cares for. I can't thank you enough!!! ❤️❤️❤️”

About: While I love animals of all kinds, cats are my soul animals. As you probably saw in other spots on my profile, I currently have 4 of my own. (I had five, but I very sadly lost my dear girl, Rita, to cancer last year ❤️). I love my kitties so much that I literally have two of their portraits tattooed on my arm. They're my entire world. I know that those of us who love cats, all share the same obsession. We're a special type of person. I currently care-take for my sick boy, Castle, dealing with his kidney disease. And have taken care of all my babies with the utmost care through their whole lives. I'm comfortable and confident in giving all kinds of medications, including administering subcutaneous fluids by myself. I'd love to care for your kitties while you're away!
About: Hi, I have had dogs through most of my life and hope you'll give me the chance to take care of yours. I've taken care of many different breeds from the small but mighty Chihuahua to the large, majestic Newfoundland. Several friends and family have looked to me to not only watch their dogs but also to help train them. I personally know how it feels to have obligations that might take you away from your fur baby. I would love to be the positive addition to your dogs life in order for you to be able to go to work, a family event or go out on a date with the peace of mind that your dog is being handled with the love and care that you yourself would provide. I have every confidence that you and your dog will be very happy with the care I can provide.
“Brooke was amazing ! I’m a Paramedic in Flint so I work long days . I have a new pup that is 5 months old and he’s crated while I’m at work . She came to my house and was able to let him out and play with him . She gave him some water and a couple treats . I booked her again because she seemed to do really well with my puppy . She communicated with me and I am very grateful to her for taking the time .”
“I have been so happy with her and can’t say enough about how great she has been. She responds promptly and is great at keeping us up to date with our fur babies. Would recommend her to everyone”
“Marlana is conscientious, prompt and so sweet with my cats. Both took to her right away and my normally shy and skittish Maine Coon especially fell in love. Great communication while we took a long trip, sending updates and photos. Also very patient helping me use the Rover app, which is not intuitive!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I have had a variety of pets since I was a child. I currently have 3 dogs and a cat. Our family & friends reach out to me when they plan on going on long trips or vacations because they know I jump at the opportunity to take care of their pets! I’m currently working full time during the week so right now I can only manage drop in visits throughout the weekend. Depending on the situation I could make drop in visits available during the week in the evenings as well! I will care for your pet(s) at your home in any way that is needed. If they need special care/medications or anything if that nature I am more than willing and able to take care of it.
About: Welcome! I have over 20years experience working with dogs. I like to look at my pet boarding as an Airbnb for pets! I am a former service dog trainer. I am currently enrolled in dog training courses through Rover. I will be completing a Veterinarian Assistant program this summer. There is always someone home or available. I work & study remotely. I do provide talking dog buttons. If your dog uses them let me know & we will have them available with words your dog uses & hopefully learn some new ones! Anything that is trending that promoted positive life quality for dogs I usually have on hand or am incorporating it into use Each day I incorporate daily walks, cuddles, & basic training. Basic training is eye contact, leash & buddy walking. I provide one on one time for the dogs each daily. I make sure no dog feels left out. In the summer months their last night of boarding they get a special walk to the ice cream store to enjoy a pup cup & extra one on one time. On weekends in the summers. I am outside most days . The dog/s can enjoy ice bowls, kiddie pool, water sprinklers and shade in the backyard. In the summer I offer water play daily! They have free will to come in & out of the house into the fenced in yard all day! In the fall & winter months the dogs can enjoy outside time by a warm outdoor doggie bonfire. There are areas they can romp in the leaves & explore. I also incorporate daily walks weather permitting. On colder days or rainy days we have a rainy paw day. If the dogs are open to it they can enjoy some doggy stretches, Spaw services such as coconut oil rubs on their paw pads, homemade doggie treats, and dog related movies and cuddles!
About: I grew up with dogs my whole life and have taken care of them as well. I’m currently in school to be a vet tech so this is what I’m best at! I’m currently a stay at home mom but I’m available for check ins/walks throughout the week and the weekends. My schedule will be updated often. I prefer to come to your home for check ins and pet care. I feel the pet will feel safer in their own home and environment and won’t be so stressed in a new place with somebody they aren’t familiar with.
About: I've had a dog for the past 5 years ( shiloh ) she's a German Shepard! She is wonderfully and well trained also is fixed. she does love to greet people so she might jump. I've also dog sat for many years as well and I worked for a dog company back in 2017 where I took care of daily task as well as medical needs when necessary, and worked along side pregnant and and birthing mothers. I have had a couple cats growing up, none to call my own though. So I am also acquainted with the care of cats and kittens as well as shiloh was raised around all types of animals and children of various ages so we are comfortable saying there should be no issues with her. However we can make other accommodation for her if you don't feel comfortable with another animal in the home. One final note I have 2 children a 1 year old and a 3 year old. I hope you enjoy my profile and to hear from you soon! I have a 5 year old German Shepard who lives full time with me and my children at home. I know how to give medication, shots aswell as cut nails and bathe but I do not feel comfortable trimming or giving the dogs a hair cut. I don't have a fence, i do have a little yard but I have harnesses and leads to walk and take the dogs out side to play. I do have a crate available if needed my dog is trained as well as crate trained. Shiloh ( my dog ) love the company of other fur babies to run around as play with. My two children are also in love with animals but I do have a vary large second living room and attached mud room that I can limit off for dog access if it would make having a dog stay here more comfortable due them not being used to children!
About: I have had a dog almost my entire life with short breaks in-between, I have always taken care of my animals and before I was old enough to pay I'd tag along for vet visits ! I've always been the person to call for animals in my family, most recently I've watched my neighbors cat upstairs for 4 days or I've watched my step sisters medium sized dog for her multiple weekend away trips and lastly of the more recent I house/dog sat for a close friend of mine for a week with her two dogs! I'm not shy with bigger dogs I had a Pitbull/Lab mix and I now have a German Shepherd who has allergies that we take care of! I'm currently working part time making donuts overnight so I would be able to stop by after my shift ends early morning (typically 6:30-7am), after I wake up (early afternoon so 2pm), then evenings before my shift(before/ around 8pm) ! I'm available most days besides Sunday/Mondays with give and take! I always make sure pets are fed on time, they're taken out multiple times a day, even taken on walks when needed and of course playtime! I also do not mind having to give animals their oral meds or maybe some cream on the skin or medicine baths!
“April is phenomenal! Her strengths are communication, attention to detail, and promptness. Her super powers are making my dogs happy, calm, and content! I’m super pleased with her and plan to keep on having her return.”
About: I really enjoy spending time with animals. I’ve done long stays for a few people and take care of a dog at home. I am always willing to learn more and add to my resume of pet sitting. I am currently working a part time job. I work anywhere form 16-30 hours a week because i’m in retail. I am looking for something to fill the gaps!! Unfortunately I will not be able to care for animals in my home due to my family dog. She doesn’t do well with other animals. In the clients home I would follow all instructions given and spend lots of time with your pet, all while treating your home and your animal with the upmost respect.
“I had a great experience with Sara as my new pet sitter! She was quick to respond to messages and kept me updated throughout her visits, which gave me real peace of mind. She took excellent care of my cat, Buddy, and it was clear she genuinely cared about his well-being. I’ll definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”

“We highly recommend Joni!!! She has a great setup for the dogs she cares for. We are visiting in the area and needed a sitter for the day. So glad we found Joni. She was very accommodating for our rescue dog that has separation anxiety. Cruiser even got along very well with the other visiting dog. We will definitely use Joni again when we are back in the area. By the way, she makes FANTASTIC Amish friendship bread!!!! Thank you so much Joni.”

About: I grew up and still live on a farm. I have kept dogs, cats, chickens, turkeys, rabbits, etc. throughout my life. I will care for your animals as if they were my own. I work from home and know how frustrating it can be to worry about your pets while on vacation. I will send photos and videos of your fur family while you're away so you can stay in touch while you're away. My preference is to care for your fur family in a comfortable environment, their normal home. I am happy to host your fur family in my home, but I already have 2 small dogs, so I think they would be more comfortable if I came to them.
About: I'm a caring dog owner and have my own hobby farm. I love all kinds of animals but dogs hold a special place in my heart! My husband and I have 11 acres & the dogs love going on walks through the trails and seeing the farm animals along the way. I am attentive to each animals individual needs and love the affection dogs give. I have experience walking many breeds of dogs and have reliable transportation to get to your home on time for potty breaks. I know how much our dogs need human interaction and I think I enjoy play time as much as they do! You can trust me to give your pup the best care possible, whether at your home or mine. Thanks for taking the time to check me out! God bless you! I’m currently working part time so I have lots of time to care for your pet! I’m also very active and love to take the dogs for walks! I have 11 acres and trails to keep your dog active! I also have my own dog who, although older, turns into a puppy when other dogs are around and loves to play.
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.
About: I love to cuddle and give them attention. Catch and tug of war are two of my favorite games to play. Your pups will be highly looked after in my care I'm currently a stay at home mom! My toddler is in school on Tuesdays and Fridays which has opened up my schedule to be able to look after your babies! I do have a 9 month old who will be in the home so please think about if that would be a good fit for your furry friends (: I have a fenced yard and two very friendly pups that will keep your dogs comfortable. We do have a big gate that separates the living room from the rest of the house so we can use that tool to our advantage in keeping everyone happy throughout the day! Because I'm home all day it will be so easy to watch over all the pups and make sure they get outside as often as needed.
“Jessica was a life-saver! She was very accommodating to our request even though we were a new client. She updated us with photos throughout the day, and as the day went on our dog had a better and better time. Would definitely book with her again!”
“She was amazing with my baby. He had other dogs to play with and did great with her. She kept me updated and sent me pictures while he was with her! 10/10 will be coming back!”
About: I have been around animals my entire life and currently own a dachshund, golden doodle, 4 goats & 24 chickens. I work from home most of the week so I am flexible to give you pet all of the cuddles while you are away. I love giving my dogs the chance to meet new friends. I am comfortable around any size dog and have plenty of experience. Feel free to contact me and consider my services. I am currently working part time at home and part time at work. 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.
“Jillian was awesome with my dog Smalls. Although she did not need to as this was just a day visit, she was ready to deal with diabetes meds for Smalls. Fortunately for Smalls, school was cancelled on this day, so Smalls got to play with Jillian's two adorable girls all day. Can't say thank you enough and would recommend Jillian to anyone in need of a Rover / doggie lover!!!”
About: From early on in life I have always been an animal lover. I was the one bringing home injured birds and stray dogs/cats when I was a kid. My mom was supportive of that passion and helped me help so many animals over the years. I have personally only adopted animals from rescues and my current dog is a rescue. I volunteer time to local rescues and bring supplies to local shelters. I care for neighbors animals and homes when they go out of town. I am always very nervous about new people around my animal and home, so I always make sure to treat clients like how I would want to be treated. I really enjoy giving people one less thing to worry about. I am openly available. Besides the occasional errand, I am always home, so nobody will be left home alone! We are up with the sun and stay up late! We are on 9 acres with river access, a quiet country road and plenty of places to lounge or run! It is not fenced in.

About: Hi! My goal is to make sure your pet is safe and comfortable while getting the best form of care I can provide. Growing up with animals, especially dogs, has taught how to be a patient and caring person. I’ve built a relationship with my own dog off of trust and want to do the same while caring for your pupper! I’m a focused and detail oriented person and will work to ensure all your specific needs are met. Currently I’m working part time, so I have a flexible and pretty open schedule to take care of your pets. I’m also good with last minute changes and can easily switch around my schedule for what works best for you! I live in a small town with plenty of areas to walk dogs and I also have a fenced in back yard. I have one dog and two cats that do well around other animals, as well as a trustworthy vehicle to take me to your location.
About: I have had animals in my home for my entire life. And I do truly enjoy spending time with all animals, They keep me active.

About: I would make a great sitter for you because I genuinely love spending time with all animals ,and I have a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. My passion for animals drives me to create a nurturing and safe environment for them, where they can feel comfortable and happy. I’m Working part-time so I’ll have plenty of time with your animals, but I do work so I would be gone for a couple hours. I’m pretty flexible with times. I also don’t work on holidays It's essential to conduct drop-ins on the dogs they care for to ensure their well-being and comfort. Regular visits play a crucial role in maintaining the dogs' daily routines, which can significantly reduce stress and anxiety for the animals.
About: I've owned pets of all kinds starting as a child! Animals bring me incredible joy, and I'd love to bring that joy into your home when I watch yours! I've owned, rescued and loved cats, dogs, rabbits, ducks, raccoons, birds, and squirrels! I currently own 4 cats, all of which were rescues. Two of them brother and sister who I hand raised and bottle fed. I also have 3 dogs, A gaggle a blue heelers, so I'm especially used to high energy pups. Though they very recently left my care due to a separation. I take great pride in the attention to detail I give to the animals in my care. I'm experienced in giving all kinds of medications, to both dogs and cats. In fact, one of my own kitties has kidney disease, and I've been managing his treatment and care 100% alone. Cooking him three meals a day, hand feeding, administering any medications needed, and even giving him at-home subcutaneous fluids. But as always, let's please communicate about the details of your pet beforehand if any special care is needed so we can make sure we're a great fit for eachother! I'm a corporate professional who is very fortunate to work from home, and has really great control of their schedule! So I can very likely work my schedule around your needs! For those whose pets I will be dropping in on to feed or walk, I take great care in making sure instructions are followed, and all the needs of your pets are met! I have an abundance of love to give, so rest assured that they'll get as many scritches as they can handle, and as much fulfillment as I can give while I'm there. I know what it's like to have to leave your fur-family alone, and I'll do everything I can to make this time a positive one for them, and you! I also offer cat boarding, which seems rarely offered. I wanted to offer this because I myself have been in a situation where I've needed this service, and I've never found a place that offers it, and it was absolutely so stressful so try and find a solution! For the kitties that stay with me, I have a completely separate spot in my house that I will have them stay in, since I have kitties of my own. The previous owner of my house actually had this section designed as an in-home salon, so it has a completely separate entrance into my home. As cat owners, we know how sensitive and stressed they can get, and introducing cats to other new cats just adds more unnecessary stress. This separate entrance and room allows for a stress free, safe environment that's large and clean to play and hang in, all to themselves! They will have their own sanitized, fresh litter, litterbox at the ready for them. No need to have to haul your own supplies here! Just bring any food and treats (or any special toys or blankets that you feel might be good things for them to enjoy their stay better, or be more at ease!) Your pets must be fully vaccinated in order to come stay, so please be ready to show proof of up to date vaccinations prior to any boarding bookings. This is for the safety of both your fur babies and mine.
About: I have owned dogs my entire life, I worked in the vet field for over 4 years in various aspects, I previously worked at a dog groomers. I currently have 1 dog and a cat, I used to have lots of reptiles as well! I'm never afraid of any dog and welcome them with open arms. I currently work part time Wednesday - Saturdays pretty consistently, but my days don't start until earliest 830am and I'm normally done between 4-5 (unless we have a late day scheduled). Sunday - Tuesdays are my off days outside of doctor appointments and any other extra curriculars I do ☺️ I do only offer in home services as my older dog is a bit of a rough player and my younger is in service training and I can't take the risk of him being injured. In you home, I will stay with you pet overnight if that is what makes you the most comfortable. They can sleep with me or be crated, whichever is preferred by you. Feeding will always be on schedule and meds can be administered as needed (I have a lot of experience keeping meds straight for my own dogs). A daily walk will happen (distance dependent on dog and weather) and we will play in the yard and enjoy lots of cuddles and belly rubs!! While I love spoiling my own babys, I'll make sure to keep everything as consistent as possible for you!
About: I’m a single mother of two, running and outdoors enthusiast, and lover of 4 legged friends. I live one mile from work and have a flexible schedule to be able to accommodate multiple quick trips home if needed. While working, your pet would never be alone more than 4 hours. In my home pets are allowed on the couch and in bed with me. I have a partially fenced back yard with room to run. I live in a neighborhood setting with sidewalks making walks ideal. I’m 5 minutes away from Owosso’s bark park. My two daughters love dogs as well and have grown up with dogs in the home. I look forward to the chance to get to know you and your dog. Thank you.
About: I had a chocolate lab. She passed away in July 2020. She was 16 years old. She was on medicine and had a couple surgeries so I am used to taking care of older dogs with meds, etc. I do have 5 cats and they are very spoiled. They are outdoor/indoor. They range in age from 9 yrs-2 yrs-old. I believe in daily exercise for animals, I even walk the cats! I am available very early mornings 6-7am and in the evening from 7pm on. I am also available on most weekends. I look forward to seeing your pet and helping you out! I have a full time second shift job. I will be available in the mornings before 3:00pm and most weekends all day long if needed. I am currently not boarding any pets due to my cats being very spoiled and particular about who they have around the house. I will give the best care to your pet in your house. I believe in exercise and a good diet for your pet and also the occasional treat.
About: I've had a dog for the past 5 years ( shiloh ) she's a German Shepard! She is wonderfully and well trained also is fixed. she does love to greet people so she might jump. I've also dog sat for many years as well and I worked for a dog company back in 2017 where I took care of daily task as well as medical needs when necessary, and worked along side pregnant and and birthing mothers. I have had a couple cats growing up, none to call my own though. So I am also acquainted with the care of cats and kittens as well as shiloh was raised around all types of animals and children of various ages so we are comfortable saying there should be no issues with her. However we can make other accommodation for her if you don't feel comfortable with another animal in the home. One final note I have 2 children a 1 year old and a 3 year old. I hope you enjoy my profile and to hear from you soon! I have a 5 year old German Shepard who lives full time with me and my children at home. I know how to give medication, shots aswell as cut nails and bathe but I do not feel comfortable trimming or giving the dogs a hair cut. I don't have a fence, i do have a little yard but I have harnesses and leads to walk and take the dogs out side to play. I do have a crate available if needed my dog is trained as well as crate trained. Shiloh ( my dog ) love the company of other fur babies to run around as play with. My two children are also in love with animals but I do have a vary large second living room and attached mud room that I can limit off for dog access if it would make having a dog stay here more comfortable due them not being used to children!
About: I grew up with dogs my whole life and have taken care of them as well. I’m currently in school to be a vet tech so this is what I’m best at! I’m currently a stay at home mom but I’m available for check ins/walks throughout the week and the weekends. My schedule will be updated often. I prefer to come to your home for check ins and pet care. I feel the pet will feel safer in their own home and environment and won’t be so stressed in a new place with somebody they aren’t familiar with.
About: Welcome! I have over 20years experience working with dogs. I like to look at my pet boarding as an Airbnb for pets! I am a former service dog trainer. I am currently enrolled in dog training courses through Rover. I will be completing a Veterinarian Assistant program this summer. There is always someone home or available. I work & study remotely. I do provide talking dog buttons. If your dog uses them let me know & we will have them available with words your dog uses & hopefully learn some new ones! Anything that is trending that promoted positive life quality for dogs I usually have on hand or am incorporating it into use Each day I incorporate daily walks, cuddles, & basic training. Basic training is eye contact, leash & buddy walking. I provide one on one time for the dogs each daily. I make sure no dog feels left out. In the summer months their last night of boarding they get a special walk to the ice cream store to enjoy a pup cup & extra one on one time. On weekends in the summers. I am outside most days . The dog/s can enjoy ice bowls, kiddie pool, water sprinklers and shade in the backyard. In the summer I offer water play daily! They have free will to come in & out of the house into the fenced in yard all day! In the fall & winter months the dogs can enjoy outside time by a warm outdoor doggie bonfire. There are areas they can romp in the leaves & explore. I also incorporate daily walks weather permitting. On colder days or rainy days we have a rainy paw day. If the dogs are open to it they can enjoy some doggy stretches, Spaw services such as coconut oil rubs on their paw pads, homemade doggie treats, and dog related movies and cuddles!
About: I really enjoy spending time with animals. I’ve done long stays for a few people and take care of a dog at home. I am always willing to learn more and add to my resume of pet sitting. I am currently working a part time job. I work anywhere form 16-30 hours a week because i’m in retail. I am looking for something to fill the gaps!! Unfortunately I will not be able to care for animals in my home due to my family dog. She doesn’t do well with other animals. In the clients home I would follow all instructions given and spend lots of time with your pet, all while treating your home and your animal with the upmost respect.
About: What sets me apart is that I focus on being consistent, attentive, and calm with every pet I care for. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual routine and personality, so they feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I’m also patient with different needs, whether that’s energetic puppies who need structure and playtime or older pets who may need a slower pace and extra care. I make sure communication with pet owners is clear and reliable so they always know how their pet is doing. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine because I’m very organized and consistent with my schedule. I’m comfortable handling feeding, walking, cleaning, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so fitting pet care into my weekly routine feels rewarding rather than stressful. I make sure pets are comfortable, safe, and cared for by following their normal routine as closely as possible. In my home or a client’s home, I focus on feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, playtime, cleaning up after them, and giving them attention and companionship. I also pay close attention to their behavior and comfort level to make sure they’re happy and stress-free. If the owner has specific instructions, I always follow them carefully to make sure their pet receives the best care possible.
About: I have had a dog almost my entire life with short breaks in-between, I have always taken care of my animals and before I was old enough to pay I'd tag along for vet visits ! I've always been the person to call for animals in my family, most recently I've watched my neighbors cat upstairs for 4 days or I've watched my step sisters medium sized dog for her multiple weekend away trips and lastly of the more recent I house/dog sat for a close friend of mine for a week with her two dogs! I'm not shy with bigger dogs I had a Pitbull/Lab mix and I now have a German Shepherd who has allergies that we take care of! I'm currently working part time making donuts overnight so I would be able to stop by after my shift ends early morning (typically 6:30-7am), after I wake up (early afternoon so 2pm), then evenings before my shift(before/ around 8pm) ! I'm available most days besides Sunday/Mondays with give and take! I always make sure pets are fed on time, they're taken out multiple times a day, even taken on walks when needed and of course playtime! I also do not mind having to give animals their oral meds or maybe some cream on the skin or medicine baths!
About: I am a middle school english teacher that is looking to make some money during the summer and meet some cute dogs! I would treat your dog like my own. I have a silver lab of my own that I take on a walk everyday (when the weather allows it). He is 8 years old and has lived the best life by going on puppy play dates, doggy day care, and many trips camping with us. I grew up with all kinds of dogs my entire life and I truly feel they are apart of the family! Should be treated like they are apart of the family.
“MacKenzie did an AMAZING job!! I didn't know what to expect being as this is was my first time using Rover, and I was blown away with how smoothly everything went. I was gone for the 4th of July and even though it was a holiday she walked my dog twice, fed and watered her. She made sure to update me with pictures and get all information needed to take care of my pet. Whenever I go on a trip again I will definitely be using Mackenzie's services again.”
About: I grew up with dogs, cats, exotic birds, and rodents as pets. I presently have cats of my own, foster kittens, a feral colony that came with my home, and an elderly chihuahua, who is constantly judging my Spanish. 😅 My schedule outside of pet sitting is currently pretty open. I've been a stay at home parent for a few years now and am looking to branch out a bit now that kids are in school. I'm happy to follow any and all directions in my caring for your pet. I understand they're like family for many of us, myself included.

“I had a great first experience with Rover, thanks to Martha! Martha took amazing care of my dog for a whole week in her home. I was nervous about leaving him because he's had behavioral issues in the past, but it worked out really well! Martha was very responsive from the start and experienced with rescue dogs. Martha was very accommodating of Bumi's daily medication schedule and prescription diet, as well as his rescue quirks. She sent pictures and updates which were great comforts to me. Bumi was clearly very happy and comfortable while he was boarding. I will not hesitate to book Martha again!”
“Highly recommend! Our two dogs had a wonderful overnight stay. We received updates and photos throughout their visit, which made us feel so comfortable knowing they were in great hands. The care and attention they received were outstanding, and they came home happy and well cared for. We will definitely book again!”
“One issue - Stella was wayyyyyy too spoiled! We felt very comfortable with Michelle and she communicated well from the first meet and greet to the week long stay. You can tell she truly loves animals and we will use her again. Thanks for making her feel at home and we also appreciate the fact that there is only one client at a time.”
“Highly recommend! She took the stress of leaving your dog with strangers away right away. We did an initial meet and greet before confirming the booking. I didnt know what I was doing it was my first using the app and booking a service. She guided me on how to do it and honored the original price which was wrong. I dropped Davenchi off in the evening and I expected I wouldn't hear from Holly until the next day but she started updating me right away. I was able to rest easy the first night because she sent pics and let me know how he was adjusting. Everyday after that I got morning and evening updates with pics and sometimes midday updates if he made new friends or did something special. She even trained him a lil bit for me Hes a 4 month old puppy. Nothing but great things to say. The paw pedicures he received really won me over!”
“Andrew was seriously the BEST! I was super nervous because I had never tried boarding my cat anywhere, but Andrew provided a great place for Tomato to spend the day...so much so I don't think he wanted to leave! 😅”
“We had a great experience boarding our one year old husky with Toni for six nights. The facilities are impressive and Toni and her assistant Amy’s comfort and patience with our energetic and rambunctious dog put me at ease, as did seeing that she would have plenty of room to herself in her own spacious kennel and fenced in yards to run in”
“Sara and John Patrick took exceptional care of our senior girl. We received regular updates with photos of how she was doing and all of the love she was getting from the family. We are always hesitant to leave her with someone who isn't family, especially as she has gotten older, but we had no concerns after dropping her off. We will highly recommend them to friends and hope to rebook with them when the need arises.”
“Rosemary always seems to have a great time and comes back happy. Chris is friendly and easy to work with - really happy to have a place we can count on to board Rose and know she's in great hands. Thank you!”
“My dog Cooper was very relaxed and at home with Cheryl. I felt at ease with Cooper in her care with his special dietary needs and separation anxiety. I really appreciated how she accommodated my change in schedule due to unexpected travel delays. Definitely will rebook for future dog boarding.”
“Amazing environment. My dog has lots of room to run around as well as another playful dog so he was always active. Kimberly sent lots of pictures and my dog looked happy in every one of them.”
“Victoria has a clean house and a great yard for a dog . Her family is sweet and communication was excellent. The meet and greet went well and we finalized our booking and she sent pictures every day that made me feel reassured. She was attentive to all his needs and our needs and even picked him up and dropped him off. I would definitely use her services again. I have used Rover about four times in this was easily our best experience.”
“Jordan’s communication was top notch!!! Jordan was very attentive to my concerns and was flexible with our pick up/drop off schedule. Most importantly, I felt like Willard was in good hands for the short time we were away. Jordan sent texts and pictures of Willard and kept us updated throughout the stay. Jordan is great!! Highly recommended sitter!”
“She was fantastic with Luna. Jessica sent us tons of pictures and updates about Luna’s day & eating. She also kept Luna playing and happy. Jessica is professional and caring. Would book again.”
“Everything about this experience was great. Hope treated the dogs as if they were her own. Picking them up, they almost didn't want to leave. Highly recommend Hope and will contact her again when we need a sitter.”
“Mandy was great! She sent daily updates with pictures which helped us feel more at ease while we were gone. Mandy was also so unbelievably understanding and patient when our little one chewed things she shouldn’t have! 😬 Thank you Mandy!!!”
“Literally the BEST person for our senior pup! She sent multiple daily updates, treated him really well, and basically spoiled him rotten! She even asked questions about his needs and wants. She referred to herself as “granny” for Benji, and by the end of his stay, Benji and I both agreed that she’s his granny! Ive never used this app before and she was my first person to try boarding with, and it was awesome. Will 100% come back if I need a sitter and 100% recommend her. :)”

Must be crate trained for the night time hours, during the day the animal will be out of the cage. I have a Doberman pincher.
