“Caroline was fantastic! Murphy is 10 and has never been boarded and is an only dog. Caroline immediately made me and Murphy comfortable. Murphy loved spending time with Gator and a couple other dogs, and Caroline sent regular updates. I can’t thank her enough for keeping Murphy for 12 days!

We received a few photos, which were absolutely adorable. We saw a big difference between dropping him off at Rachel's and a doggy daycare. We would highly highly recommend her!”

“Michelle and her wonderful family wholly welcomed my dog Skye and made her feel so welcome at their beautiful property. She's a bit of a nervous girl, and Michelle was very in tune with her moods and needs. She was gently introduced to Michelle's dogs one at a time, and even got to sleep in a bed with a family member. Not only was Skye reassured and happy, I was too!”

He made sure Goose felt comfortable in the house, provided him with sufficient exercise, and sent me daily updates with pictures and videos. Highly recommend Dan to anyone in need of a sitter!”
“I couldn’t be more thrilled to have found Tatyana, Nikki, and Biscuit to keep my little Bear company while I’m away. Daily check ins and communication were so helpful and eased my mind during the week plus multiple pictures to keep me posted on how he was doing. We look forward to knowing our Bear is safe and cared for when we aren’t able to take him with us in the future! Thank you again Tatyana!”
“Félix is beyond AMAZING ! He has such a beautiful heart and Love for dogs. I took my Shelby over for a meet and greet. I had never left her before and was very anxious about having to leave her for such a long time- 3 weeks. Anxious being an understatement. But I left the meet and greet 100% certain that she would be loved, spoiled and incredibly well taken care of. And she was. When I picked her up, she was happy and healthy and I could feel the bond that had formed between them. Felix was so wonderful about keeping me updated. He sent lots of photos and videos, took her on long walks every day, and has a huge fenced in backyard where she could run off her energy. I highly recommend Felix, would Absolutely leave my little girl with him again. I can’t imagine that there is anyone out there who could possibly do as well of a job or a better job of loving and caring for my best friend. I wouldn’t even consider leaving her with anyone else because I have found the very best in Felix.”
“Winston loved his stay with Renee. She provided updates throughout out his stay and kept him busy with walks and trips to the park. She clearly has a love of dogs and is great at caring for them. Highly recommend.”
“Katherine was absolutely wonderful! She was able to take my pup so last minute and was extremely communicative throughout my trip. Will be rebooking for every trip!!!”
“Emily and her family were so great with my dog. It's very nerve racking to leave your furry baby with unknown people but Emily made me feel at ease and my dog seemed to really love her family. She sent me lots of pictures and updates.”
“Averi took great care of my Remy boy! She is a kind and thoughtful sitter and very easy to communicate with. She sent pictures during Remy’s stay at her home and assured me he was happy and well taken care of. Prior to Remy’s overnight stay, we met up for a meet and greet. Averi listened to my explanations of Remy’s needs and had no issues understanding and managing his anxiety and reactivity. She made me feel at ease. We will definitely be reaching out again!”
“I couldn’t be more impressed with Sabrina’s care for my dog, Sophie. From the start, Sabrina was attentive, easy to reach, and communicated clearly throughout Sophie’s stay. She went above and beyond, frequently sending photos and videos that let me see just how much fun Sophie was having. It was reassuring and heartwarming to know Sophie was in such good hands. But what really sets Sabrina apart is the special touch she adds. She created these amazing custom magnetic photos that perfectly captured Sophie’s experience and her wonderful personality. It was an incredibly thoughtful gesture that I never expected! Sabrina exceeded every expectation, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.”

“Kerrigan did a great job with my kitties! Beulah doesn’t usually take to people and she was eating treats in Kerrigan’s lap. Gladys was her bossy self. It was nice to know that they were in good hands.”
About: I am the friends and family dog sitter! I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and I could still pet them for hours and not get bored. On average I stay at someone houses for a week while they’re on vacation as well as but not as often a weekend stay. I am great will all breads and sizes of dogs/cats, as well as ages such as senior animals. I personally took are of our 90lb 11 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback after her back legs gave out. So while using a harness I would help her do everything, such as standing up to eat, move around and go outside. I can also do things like trimming nails and bathing them (especially if you unable to do yourself). I truly care and feel for every animal as if they were my own. I’m currently not working full time at the moment and have been doing small jobs here and there such as dog sitting for friends and family. I have a great portion of time for spend getting to know and engaging in your pets. I’m available anytime after 9am. I will care for your pets the way I would care for my own and in such continue their regular and daily routine. Including things such as walking them in the morning/night, playing with them and loving them or any other needed or wanted activities.

Paige was super responsive to my messages and sent pictures and videos often to keep me happy! ollie got training while he stayed with them and was less mouthy (puppy teething)! again i cannot say enough good things about them, they loved ollie like he was their own. we will most definitely be booking with them again to take care of our puppy! best rover sitters out there.”

“Susan has been a fabulous fit for our pups and our needs. She is a true animal lover, has a big fenced back yard where the dogs can frequently run and play, and she treats each dog like her own. Having my pups stay with Susan is like having them experience a trip to a “grandma’s” house, of sorts. They definitely get loved on!”
About: Hi! I’m an experienced dog owner and lifelong dog lover who has raised and trained my own 4-year-old chocolate lab from puppyhood. I provide a safe, structured, and loving home where your dog will be treated like family. I’m a teacher and am home full-time during the summer, so your pup will get plenty of attention, including daily walks, playtime, and enrichment. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages and can administer oral medications if needed. Dogs staying with me must be friendly, as they’ll be spending time with my well-socialized lab who loves having a buddy around. Dogs are welcome on furniture to feel at home (just not on beds). Your dog’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority, caring for them just like I do my own! I am home during the summers, as I teach during the school year! This allows my schedule to be flexible and provide your pet with frequent bathroom breaks, outside time, walks, and play time! Your pet will be welcomed into my home and treated like a family pet during their stay! Pets are allowed on furniture, but I request that they not sleep on the bed. I have beds that I can provide for them as an alternative sleeping area. My yard is fenced in for ease of bathroom breaks and time spent outside, but will likely be accompanied by me as I will likely be home during the majority of your pets stay. If your pet tends to get curious when left alone, I ask that you provide a crate for them to be put in when I have to run out of the house during your pets stay. I am pretty flexible and happy to accommodate your pet’s needs during their stay!
“My dog Lucio has a lot of anxiety with separation but he dealt with it very well when I left him with Kristopher and his family. The property is beautiful and big. Perfect for pets. Kristopher kept me informed and made me feel very comfort during the day through constant communication and reports. I’ll certainly use his services again!”
About: Hello fellow animal lover! I’m Bec, the matriarch of a family of 6 (5 humans 1 dog). As fun loving people, we look forward to having furry visitors to play with and care for. I work from home and go for walks often. The house is quiet during the day while the kiddos are in school, and more lively in the afternoon once everyone else is home! I like to go on adventures with all sorts (mostly mammals) but especially my dog Parker. She’s the best pal. To know her is to love her, but I might be able to say that about all dogs! She’s always waiting for the next furry friend to come over and play. I am a very go-with-the-flow type of person! My schedule is flexible, and my partner is a stay at home parent. Together we have time and attention to give to your beloved little pets! I have a fenced in yard for plenty of fun and play. I go for walks in my neighborhood. My home is a clean and clutter free environment that is puppy proofed!
“Ashley is very good with my dog. I love the home environment for my pet. Communication with Ashley is great. My pet seems to be very happy with Ashley”
“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 :)”
“This was the first time using someone to watch my 5 mo old puppy. So glad to have found Linda! Grace was well taken care of and came home exhausted after a day of play.”
About: We take extra time to make sure they have exercise, love, play, safety, and fun. We treat your dog as if he's one of our own. Someone is always home to care for our pets. Their care is our #1 priority. We have scheduled meal times and always ensure fresh water is available. We also take time to make sure they have plenty of exercise and fun. We take multiple walks each day, spend time playing with them, ensure that they are well cared for and loved. We make sure they are happy!
About: I work remotely, which means I’m home a lot and able to give pets real attention throughout the day, not just quick check-ins between errands. I’ve been a dog owner since 2009, and while my two dogs sadly passed away a few years back, that long experience really shaped how I understand routines, personalities, and all the little quirks that make each pet unique. I usually keep things crate-free so dogs can relax and feel at home; they’re welcome to lounge on the couch, their bed, my bed, or wherever they choose, and I want them to feel like they’re just hanging out in their second home. If your pup is crate-trained or prefers a crate routine though, I’m totally happy to stick with that too. I focus on keeping pets comfortable and sticking closely to their normal routine, whether that’s walks, playtime, meals, or just hanging out and keeping them company. I’m pretty used to everything from energetic zoomies to picky eating to strong opinions about walk routes, so I try to meet each pet where they are and make them feel at home. I also keep pet parents updated with regular photos and messages so you’re never wondering how things are going, and can relax knowing your pet is being well cared for (and probably a little spoiled). Working from home gives me a lot of flexibility to fit pet care naturally into the day; walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout. Most pets are rarely left alone for long periods, which can be especially helpful for dogs that get anxious or just like having company. Overall, I try to keep things steady and predictable for pets, since they tend to do best with routine; regular walks, meals, playtime, and companionship built into the day so they feel comfortable and cared for. I offer flexible pet care in both my home and the client’s home, depending on what works best for each pet and their routine. In my home, pets are treated like part of the day-to-day household in a calm, pet-friendly environment where they can relax, play, and settle in comfortably, with consistent routines for feeding, walks, rest, attention, and plenty of time for play and companionship so they feel at ease and not bored. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping everything as familiar and stress-free as possible by sticking closely to their normal routine and following any specific instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and anything else that helps them feel secure, while also making sure they get plenty of one-on-one attention so they still feel cared for while you’re away. If I’m house sitting, I also help keep things running smoothly by bringing in mail, watering plants, and making sure everything stays secure, and I always provide regular updates with messages and photos so you know how things are going. Since I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, I’m able to accommodate midday check-ins, overnight stays, and longer care periods, and I’m also pretty adaptable if anything changes last minute. My goal is simply to make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for the whole time.
“She said he did wonderful. She took great care in all his needs & wants. Very dependable. Love the pics & communication through the day. Already booked again. Thank you”
“Libby is the best! She does such a great job with Bo and he loves going to see her. She gives regular updates, takes him to the park and on hikes, and is very attentive and responsive. Highly recommend!”
“Bianca was great with my extremely timid Miniature Schnauzer, Sophia. I adopted my now seven year old just before the pandemic hit so she's not used to being away from home; and, before adoption, she was essentially a puppy mill momma. Suffice it to say my girl isn't a people person (not aggressive, just timid) but loves to meet dogs. Bianca introduced her to her two adorable Shih Tzus plus two bigger dogs that were there that day with no problem and she got to explore the fenced back yard. Bianca sent me a photo of Sophia chilling (she decided to hang out in a large crate with the door open and went in and out as she felt comfortable). I'm sure Bianca could have snapped a picture of her outside and acted as if Sophia was really whooping it up; I appreciate the honesty and, because of that, feel comfortable with her taking care of my dog later this summer when I'll be out-of-state. I recommend Bianca for trustworthy care of your critter.”
About: We are a Christian home with a very active family! I’m thankful that my job allows me to spend most of my days at home with the kids and dog. Our dog is very friendly and loves new visitors. She’s smaller, but loves the big dogs best! My daughter on the other hand loves the smaller dogs. We will happily welcome them all! My dog and I frequent the dog parks, hiking trails, beaches and walks through the town. I used to be a former 4-H member with my childhood dog, so I’ve got many years experience with training and showing. My love and patience is huge for dogs. I prefer a dog to be kennel trained, and come with a crate but an open to discussion. I am very flexible and I will most certainly work with you with whatever you may need. Look forwarding to meeting you and your pup. We are home the majority of our days, tending to our hobby farm, and enjoying time outside. We have a very flexible schedule, and are willing to accommodate. The dogs are always fed separate, and separated when I leave! Pets are allowed on beds, and couches. They will get lots of time outside with us.

About: I have experience providing both overnight pet care and daily drop-in/walk visits for dogs of many different breeds, sizes, and ages. I enjoy caring for animals and believe dogs thrive with consistent attention, daily exercise, and loving care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping pets company, I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I work in a school, so I currently have weekends available and I will have summer available to provide daily walks in a few weeks. Safety and fulfilling needs is my number one priority when I have a pet in my care. I will ensure that walks or visits are safe for your pet and that its needs are being met.
About: Hi there! I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember, helping out family, friends, and neighbors with their pets, as well as looking after my own animals, who are now seniors. I also have a parrot, so I’m comfortable with pets of all kinds and personalities. I treat every pet as if they were my own, giving them the same love, attention, and care they’re used to at home. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or extra TLC for senior pets, you can trust that your furry (or feathery!) friend will feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m a paraprofessional at an elementary school, and I’m looking to fill in some of my time while waiting for my kids to get out of school, as well as make the most of my free time on evenings and weekends doing something I truly enjoy. I’ve been around dogs since I was 8 years old, so caring for them comes naturally to me. From energetic pups to more laid-back companions, I’m comfortable meeting dogs where they’re at and giving them the attention, exercise, and care they need. You can count on me to be reliable, patient, and attentive, and to treat your dog with the same love and care I give my own. When I’m with animals, they truly become part of my world. I have two dogs, a cat, and even a parrot, so I’m used to giving lots of love and attention to all kinds of personalities. I’m very affectionate and make sure every pet I’m caring for feels safe, happy, and completely spoiled. When I’m caring for your pet, I treat them exactly the same as I do my own—with the same love, attention, and affection as if they were part of my family. I love taking dogs along for car rides and even the occasional fun stop (like a pup cup outing!), and I make it a priority to keep them engaged rather than left alone for long periods. Whether it’s regular potty breaks, playtime, or just extra snuggles, I’m attentive to their needs and make sure they’re well cared for every step of the way.
“We love having Ava walk our lively Schnoodle. He needs his walk every day, and his humans are sometimes busy or not feeling well enough to take him. We really appreciate her! And it makes Kevin very happy!”
“Liz took such good care of my puppy! She was willing to work with me when I had a mix up. Sent some beautiful photos of my big boy too! Thank you Liz!”
“My dog is pretty anxious when it comes to new people/being around people when I’m not present, but Jasmine is so great with him! She was able to meet him prior to becoming his dog walker and he loved her instantly.”
About: I was raised with dogs of many different breeds and have owned a dog most of my adult life.

As a seasoned veteran, I also take notice of extra details that may need attention or extra care. I often bring my pet loving teenage daughters along so your pets can have some extra loving.
About: I’ve lived with cats my whole life. I’ve had the responsibility of feeding and cleaning them since I was 14. I am very excited to take care of other pets and keep them safe. I feed my two cats three scoops each day (three scoops for each of them), give them lots of fresh water, and clean their litter boxes every day. I not only take care of my pets to make sure they are safe and healthy, but I play with them and have lots of fun with them.

“Lauren is my go-to walker for Annie. She is very communicative and pays attention to any changes or concerns. Puppies aren’t always easy, but Lauren is patient and really spends time with her from when she was a baby. Love that she now can take Annie on rigorous walks to expend puppy energy! Highly recommend Lauren :)”

About: Hello! My name is Ally and I am a confirmed animal lover! All of my friends and family say that they want to come back in their next life as one of my pets lol. My family has had many different types of animals since I was a baby and love taking care of them. I have extensive experience in caring for cats, dogs, and horses - any size or age. I also have plenty of experience giving medications (pills, shots, ect) and have no issues with special requests. My older dog Dozer (who passed away at age 13 in April 2021) had Addisons and caratracts, so I have plenty of experience giving extra care when needed. I am currently am working a hybrid work schedule, but I work from home Thursdays and Fridays. On the weekends you will most likely find me out and about with my current dog Finnley. Finnley is a 5 year old Goldendoodle who loves life, people, treats and other dogs. We love to go to dog parks, the cottage, trails in the woods, car rides, the indoor dog park, and the Muskegon Dog Beach. I use positive reinforcement only and the dogs are of course allowed on the furniture. I have had many years of experience in training my own dogs and have no issues following any rules that you have for your pet. Finnley and I live in downtown Rockford. While I don’t have a fenced in back yard, Finnley and I take at least 2 long walks a day. I also have access to the Rockford Dog Park, The Pack Indoor Dog park, Townsend Park, Grand Ravines Dog Park, trails in downtown Rockford, Grand Rogue Park, and the White Pine Trail. Finn and I are more than happy to have multiple dogs on our walks with us – the more the merrier! Finnley and I would love to take care of your fur family! Currently I am working a hybrid work schedule and only have to go in to work 3 days a week. The rest of the week I am working from home and take several long walks a day. If the weather is not great (rain, too cold, ect) I have access to The Pack indoor dog park. My current dog Finnley and I love to go for multiple long walks - both off leash in the woods and on leash downtown Rockford. We have multiple potty breaks a day, have plenty of toys to play with, and Finnley loves playing with other dogs. Finnley has full access to water all the time and gets fed twice a day. If I do have to leave the house, it is only for 5 hrs at a time maximum. While I don't have a fenced in yard, I have access to multiple dog parks, trails, and other areas for exercise. Finnley is crate trained and is in his kennel when I am out of the house & at night. I only take dogs out to go potty on a leash. My house is extremely pet proof.

“Caroline was fantastic! Murphy is 10 and has never been boarded and is an only dog. Caroline immediately made me and Murphy comfortable.

Not only was Skye reassured and happy, I was too!”

“Félix is beyond AMAZING ! He has such a beautiful heart and Love for dogs. I took my Shelby over for a meet and greet. I had never left her before and was very anxious about having to leave her for such a long time- 3 weeks. Anxious being an understatement. But I left the meet and greet 100% certain that she would be loved, spoiled and incredibly well taken care of. And she was. When I picked her up, she was happy and healthy and I could feel the bond that had formed between them. Felix was so wonderful about keeping me updated. He sent lots of photos and videos, took her on long walks every day, and has a huge fenced in backyard where she could run off her energy. I highly recommend Felix, would Absolutely leave my little girl with him again. I can’t imagine that there is anyone out there who could possibly do as well of a job or a better job of loving and caring for my best friend. I wouldn’t even consider leaving her with anyone else because I have found the very best in Felix.”
“Winston loved his stay with Renee. She provided updates throughout out his stay and kept him busy with walks and trips to the park. She clearly has a love of dogs and is great at caring for them. Highly recommend.”
“Christina was great with our dog Asher! She was great at communicating and sent pictures of him to us while we were on vacation and showed us how he was loving spending time with their dog. They even sent us home with a new dog toy for Asher and he loves it. Thanks for helping us out! We will definitely request to book with them again.”
“Katherine was absolutely wonderful! She was able to take my pup so last minute and was extremely communicative throughout my trip. Will be rebooking for every trip!!!”
“Emily and her family were so great with my dog. It's very nerve racking to leave your furry baby with unknown people but Emily made me feel at ease and my dog seemed to really love her family. She sent me lots of pictures and updates.”
“Averi took great care of my Remy boy! She is a kind and thoughtful sitter and very easy to communicate with. She sent pictures during Remy’s stay at her home and assured me he was happy and well taken care of. Prior to Remy’s overnight stay, we met up for a meet and greet. Averi listened to my explanations of Remy’s needs and had no issues understanding and managing his anxiety and reactivity. She made me feel at ease. We will definitely be reaching out again!”
“I couldn’t be more impressed with Sabrina’s care for my dog, Sophie. From the start, Sabrina was attentive, easy to reach, and communicated clearly throughout Sophie’s stay. She went above and beyond, frequently sending photos and videos that let me see just how much fun Sophie was having. It was reassuring and heartwarming to know Sophie was in such good hands. But what really sets Sabrina apart is the special touch she adds. She created these amazing custom magnetic photos that perfectly captured Sophie’s experience and her wonderful personality. It was an incredibly thoughtful gesture that I never expected! Sabrina exceeded every expectation, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.”
