“Hanna and her family made Charlie feel right at home! They accepted his stinky shoe fetish and his desire for hands constantly petting with absolute open arms (his favorite). Her two fur babies welcomed him and left him absolutely exhausted and maybe a little depressed that there’s no one to play with in his own backyard. We will definitely be rebooking again! Thank you!”

“Bradley took great care of Miles and Lola! He kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the week, and they were well cared for. We really appreciated his communication and attention to them. We’d definitely book with Bradley again and recommend him.”

“Best Rover sitter there is. Treats pets like family and just like, one of their own. Got frequent updates and photos during our week out of town. Highly trusted and loving, even gave our pooch a bath prior to pickup! PS they spoiled our dog with his very own Christmas gift!”

“Luke and his family were exceptional! He was incredibly flexible with accommodations. We were able to leave Rosie and Loki with him in complete confidence that they would be taken care of, and provided daily photos and updates. I would highly recommend!”

“Olivia was great! Very friendly and responsive, it was super easy to coordinate drop off and pickup and our dog had a great time! Will definitely be using again and would highly recommend.”

“We were in a bind when our original sitter got sick right before we had to leave for my son’s wedding, and Stacy came through for us at the very last minute. She was absolutely wonderful with Sophie, so patient and kind. She sent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. We’d definitely love to use her again in the future.”

“Leandra and Mark did an amazing job with our puppy. They are so personal with clients. They took such good care of our baby. I definitely will book again. Their availability is great especially for a puppy. They love playing with the puppy. They treated our puppy like he was their own. I look forward to them watching him again soon!”


“Julie was a wonderful Rover host. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with them and loved getting pictures of my pup every day. I definitely will be using them again and highly recommend. Thanks so much!!”

“If you’re looking for boarding or sitting for your dog, then there is no better option than Madison. We are very happy with the care and attention our puppy received during his stay. He was in very high spirits when we picked him up and she will be our go-to sitter from now on. 10/10 would highly recommend.”

“Jenny took such attentive care of Chula when Chula felt under the weather. I am grateful that my pups were loved and cared for while I was out of town. It helped ease my mind considerably.”

“Debra was absolutely amazing! She truly enjoys dog sitting and it showed thru her genuine excitement to care for our Goldendoodle after our meet-n-greet. It honestly felt like leaving our dog at Grandmas. She took our dog in on Christmas Day and even got him a present. She even shared some of her Christmas dinner ham with him (after asking for permission of course). Debra genuinely loves caring for dogs. She sends updates and photos throughout the day. We’ve never left our dog with a dog sitter before and she put us at ease after meeting with her. We couldn’t be happier with the care she gave our needy and active Goldendoodle. We HIGHLY recommend letting Debra care for your 4 legged child. She will give them all the love and attention they can handle.”

“Kari and her family did an absolutely fantastic job, taking care of Sebastian. Not only were her doggies and family great with him, I would rebook with them anytime I could! Definitely recommend them for anybody that needs a dog sitter! Thank you guys!!”

“Kevin and his wife Piper took exceptional care of my golden retriever, Point! From start to finish, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such great hands. They went above and beyond by sending plenty of pictures, which really showed how comfortable and happy Point was during his stay, it meant so much to see him having such a great time. It’s clear they truly care about the dogs they watch and treat them like their own. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I will most definitely be having them watch Point again.

About: I’ve had grown up with cats and have two of my own, one is 13 years old and one is 1 years old. I don’t mind scooping a litter box, clipping nails, giving medicine, or anything of the sorts. I have cat sit for older cats before and have experience with special feeding instructions as well as giving correct medicine dosage at specific times. I don’t mind playing with kittens or high energy cats (and definitely don’t mind feeding them treats😂)
“An absolutely phenomenal pet sitter. We could not have found a better person to watch our cats while we were gone for several days. Hanna dropped in twice a day to care for our cats while we were out of town. She is super friendly and warm and sweet. Our cats fell in love with her instantly. We invited her husband to visit our place with her , and he was great with the cats too. Hanna was a great communicator. She kept us up-to-date and reached out if she had questions. She also sent us numerous photos and videos of our cats as she cared for them. That’s how we know how good she was with them. For most of us who have pets, they are almost like our kids, and we want to leave them in the best care possible when away. Hanna is the person to take care of your animals. If you are in need of someone to watch your animals while you were away, ask Hanna before anybody else. You will not be disappointed, I promise. We will absolutely reach out to Hanna again for future travels.”

I’m happy to send updates and photos so you can feel confident your cat is doing well.

About: I have experience caring for cats of different ages, personalities, and needs. I currently have cats of my own, so daily cat care is already a big part of my routine. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, playtime, administering routine care, and making sure cats receive plenty of attention and affection. I understand every cat is different — some are very social while others need extra patience and space — and I work to make them feel safe, comfortable, and at home while in my care.

“I was super nervous about trying out a new sitter for my cats, but Lucy was wonderful. Each day she sent me pictures and an update. I will definitely be using her again.”

I got out of my car and looked around for a few minutes but didn't see anything and I got ready to leave I hear faint cry and I turned and looked down into some tall weeds and there she was , this poor malnourished kitten crying for help . To make a long story short I got her home and the day my wife and I took her to vet . They kept her for 3 days running ivs into her .

“Hanna has been a lifesaver as me and my dog Poppy adjust to the area and with the move! Poppy loves going to Hanna’s and playing with her new friends. Poppy is super anxious around other dogs, but she LOVES Hanna’s pups. It’s such a great feeling as a pet owner to know when I drop Poppy off she’s more excited to be there than she is to be at home!”

“Olivia took wonderful care of our 38 lb, energetic Blue Heeler. She was calm and loving to our dog, and our dog responded in a positve way to her. She sent us pictures of our happy, calm dog during the day, which we appreciated. And we loved that Olivia only has one dog in the house at a time (other than her own sweet little dog). She invited us to use her again, and we will definitely take her up on it.”

About: I've watched and owned not only a German Shepherd for over 15 years, but also cared for exotic animals, such as F1 Savannahs throughout the duration of my life. I just recently retired from the Army summer of 2023. I'm kind of bored and would love to keep myself busy doing something I love. I own a single family home with a small backyard that your fur baby can have access to. With less than a mile if requested I can walk your dog to the dog park.
About: I grew up with in a home with multiple dogs and cats and now I have my own personal tribe of a dog and two cats. I work from home these days and for the foreseeable future.

“Marv came home from Jeremiah a happy pup and had a great time. We are planning to use Jeremiah for boarding as well and will leave a review after that as a follow up.”


“Our dog Molly loved playing all day in the large fenced-in back yard. Michaelynn took great care of our youngest "child" so we could attend a wedding nearby. We would recommend this dog sitter completely without hesitation.”

“We were visiting the area from out of town for a weekend getaway. Our dogs prefer being with someone especially if it’s at an unfamiliar place. We found Jina on rover thankfully and were extremely happy and pleased with her exceptional service. She sent updates/pics and asked specific questions to make sure she was aware of all of their needs and our preferences. We really appreciate it and would highly recommend!! Thank you ☺️”

About: Big or small, I love them all! 💕 I’ve had pets since I was a small child. I’ve cared for sick puppies & kittens, elderly cats & dogs. I have 3 years experience working at a pet bathing company. There I learned a lot about proper hygiene of various breeds and how to safely handle aggressive pets. I also have 400+ hours of volunteer horse care at an equine therapy barn. I walk my own dog daily and he is high energy. I’m always in search of play pals for him to burn energy with. Let us walk your pup! I love to snuggle my pets & make sure they are clean and bug free. I can bathe and lightly groom your pets when needed. I can’t wait to meet your fur babies. ❤️
About: Intuitive dog/cat mom, I will find a way to any canine heart. I grew up with dogs in our house and was taught to treat them no less than family members, having said that, I need to confess I am the worst person when it comes to disciplining a dog, but if you have some simple rules for your canine companion, I will follow them. My own puppy is seven years old and he is a spoiled little one, but is a gentle and sweet young fellow, his sister is a quiet long haired kitty. I love them both so much. I am an artist and a student at IUSB, but I have plenty of time between classes for long walks and other quality care your pets deserve. I live in a quiet neighborhood, overlooking a small pond, there is a fenced dog yard right outside my apartment building as well as many acres of green lawns to frolic upon.

“Constance is always so attentive to Hudson’s needs. He’s been working his way back from an injury and she has been so perceptive in knowing when he’s done and ready to rest. He’s always so happy to see her and loves her even more for all the treats he gets when they are back from their walk.”

I currently have pets of my own ranging from dogs and cats to an iguana and even a peacock named Pablo. Animals to me are family and bring out true happiness even on the days where I feel the most down. I currently work a seasonal position at a Farmer’s Market, so I have plenty of time during the off season to help out with your pets! I am a college student so I do have that as a responsibility but I am good with managing my time, as I do with my own fur babies. Your pet’s safety and well being is at the top of my list! I will keep close watch on your pet(s) and make sure they have everything they need. I also will comfort your pet(s) to make sure they know they are safe and can trust me during your absence.

This included feeding, walking, cleaning, and helping dogs feel safe and comfortable.

About: Hi, I’m Madison! I’m a professional canine trainer, behaviorist, groomer, and full-time caretaker with 12 years of hands-on experience. I’m certified in dog behavior, temperament, body language, and care—so I understand what dogs need to feel safe, confident, and happy. I create enriching, balanced environments where every dog can thrive.

With me, your furry family member is treated like my own—showered with love, positive guidance, and plenty of tail-wagging fun! I give every dog my full attention, making sure they feel safe, loved, and totally at ease. Most days, you’ll find us outside soaking up the fresh air—running, playing, and exploring together. And if you ever wonder where I am, I’m probably out back with the pack having a blast. When winter hits, we move the fun into our heated, pup-friendly garage. It’s set up just for them, with turf or rubber mats for comfort and tons of toys to keep tails wagging.

We are committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and personalized environment for every dog in our care.

About: Hello, I'm a big animal lover. Life is always better with furry friends! I have pretty much always had a dog most of my life & always consider them family. I was lucky & got to be there when my former fur baby was born. Her mom let me massage her hips & tummy while in labor. It was her 1st litter & she was awesome!! She let me handle all 9 of the babies after she was done delivering so we could transfer all them to a clean bed & to help rotate at feeding time to ensure they all ate. All 9 survived & were healthy!! I was also a "doula" for my mom's cats pregnancy & she let me massage her tummy & handle her babies right away also. It's a blessing to see & be a part of. I would love to provide a safe and comfortable care for your pet while you are away. I used to have birds, cats, fish, been around reptiles & snakes, turtles, I worked at an eagle rapture center in Alaska which is where I'm from. I have a strong belief to only work in something you love so here I am. :-) Your pet will receive the same love & attention as if they were my own & provide plenty of pictures. Before I became a provider for Rover I used the service a few times myself & was very appreciative when I was given daily updates & pictures & want to provide the same for others. It truly meant a lot to me to get that so I know the importance. -Reliable, Safe, Comfortable w/ all animals -Wellness checks -Doggie daycare in your home-Rover doesn't allow me to add this feature/pricing-please ask for free quote -Pet Sitting -Pet Grooming -Walking/Running/Playtime -Pickup/Drop Off for Appointments -Training -Overnight care -Reiki/Massage for pets -I'm more than happy to help w/ some extra house cleaning (additional) so don't be afraid to ask.

I have worked and lived with dogs of all breeds, energy levels, and abilities and I love them all! I am currently looking for new clients who are looking for mid-day dog walker.

“Hanna and her family made Charlie feel right at home! They accepted his stinky shoe fetish and his desire for hands constantly petting with absolute open arms (his favorite). Her two fur babies welcomed him and left him absolutely exhausted and maybe a little depressed that there’s no one to play with in his own backyard. We will definitely be rebooking again! Thank you!”

“Bradley took great care of Miles and Lola! He kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the week, and they were well cared for. We really appreciated his communication and attention to them. We’d definitely book with Bradley again and recommend him.”

“Best Rover sitter there is. Treats pets like family and just like, one of their own. Got frequent updates and photos during our week out of town. Highly trusted and loving, even gave our pooch a bath prior to pickup! PS they spoiled our dog with his very own Christmas gift!”

“Luke and his family were exceptional! He was incredibly flexible with accommodations. We were able to leave Rosie and Loki with him in complete confidence that they would be taken care of, and provided daily photos and updates. I would highly recommend!”

“We were in a bind when our original sitter got sick right before we had to leave for my son’s wedding, and Stacy came through for us at the very last minute. She was absolutely wonderful with Sophie, so patient and kind. She sent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. We’d definitely love to use her again in the future.”

“Leandra and Mark did an amazing job with our puppy. They are so personal with clients. They took such good care of our baby. I definitely will book again. Their availability is great especially for a puppy. They love playing with the puppy. They treated our puppy like he was their own. I look forward to them watching him again soon!”


“Julie was a wonderful Rover host. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with them and loved getting pictures of my pup every day. I definitely will be using them again and highly recommend. Thanks so much!!”

“If you’re looking for boarding or sitting for your dog, then there is no better option than Madison. We are very happy with the care and attention our puppy received during his stay. He was in very high spirits when we picked him up and she will be our go-to sitter from now on. 10/10 would highly recommend.”

Farm life has taught me the importance of patience, structure, and endless belly rubs. I work from home, which means your furry friend will get plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision.

“Jenny took such attentive care of Chula when Chula felt under the weather. I am grateful that my pups were loved and cared for while I was out of town. It helped ease my mind considerably.”

“Debra was absolutely amazing! She truly enjoys dog sitting and it showed thru her genuine excitement to care for our Goldendoodle after our meet-n-greet. It honestly felt like leaving our dog at Grandmas. She took our dog in on Christmas Day and even got him a present. She even shared some of her Christmas dinner ham with him (after asking for permission of course). Debra genuinely loves caring for dogs. She sends updates and photos throughout the day. We’ve never left our dog with a dog sitter before and she put us at ease after meeting with her. We couldn’t be happier with the care she gave our needy and active Goldendoodle. We HIGHLY recommend letting Debra care for your 4 legged child. She will give them all the love and attention they can handle.”

Always looking for opportunities to build community and knowledge around animals and people! I work part-time very close to home. I pride myself on prioritizing quality time to animals in my care. I have strict boundaries on the quality of care I want to provide so I do not take on more than I feel comfortable with. providing a safe emotional environment for your pets is my top priority I have a big yard with a small portion fenced in. I utilize the fenced in area for play and hanging out with dogs. I love hanging out with the pets inside also, I have raised beds set out in the house for relaxing and plenty of couches the dogs are welcome to enjoy. I use crates and gates in the house for peace of mind and relaxation when I am out of the house.
“Kari and her family did an absolutely fantastic job, taking care of Sebastian. Not only were her doggies and family great with him, I would rebook with them anytime I could! Definitely recommend them for anybody that needs a dog sitter! Thank you guys!!”

“Kevin and his wife Piper took exceptional care of my golden retriever, Point! From start to finish, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such great hands. They went above and beyond by sending plenty of pictures, which really showed how comfortable and happy Point was during his stay, it meant so much to see him having such a great time. It’s clear they truly care about the dogs they watch and treat them like their own. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I will most definitely be having them watch Point again. Highly recommend!”
