“Amazing Care for Our High-Energy Doodle Puppy! We couldn't have been happier with the care Jeremiah provided for our energetic doodle puppy during his three-day stay. Finding someone who can handle a young, high-energy dog is crucial, and Jeremiah exceeded all our expectations. Their home is incredibly clean and nice, and the fenced backyard was perfect for our puppy to burn off steam safely. It was a huge bonus that they have their own sweet doodle—our guy had an absolute blast making a new friend and getting constant companionship! Communication was prompt and reassuring. We received updates and very cute pictures via text throughout the stay, which made us feel completely at ease. They took him on multiple walks and ensured he received excellent care and attention the entire time. Overall, our puppy truly enjoyed his stay, and we are totally satisfied. We will absolutely be repeat customers and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and fun home for their dog!”
“Frank and Clarissa were amazing. They sent us pictures, let us know how our dog was doing and kept us at ease. Our dog can be a little shy when he first meets people and they made him feel like part of their family. Highly recommend!”
“Stacey was such a GREAT FIND. We were extremely happy with the care our Sasha received. We received photos of our little Sasha and updates almost daily. She cared for her as if her own. I will certainly reach out again for future trips.”
“I've found my home away from home for my little buddy Bailey! He absolutely loved his time with Jana and the family. Jana is outstanding and very contentious. I'm always a little nervous leaving my little dude but now that I found Jana I have no worries. I would recommend her highly to anyone that has a little fur buddy.”
“Carine and Eric took excellent care of my older Boston terrier. They kept me up to date on his activities and provided photos while we were away. I felt comfortable knowing he was in caring and capable hands. Will gladly book with them again for future care!”
“Kristen and family were fantastic with our (almost) 7 year old Goldendoodle. She shared a few pictures while we were away and it's instantly clear they treated our dog as if she had been with the family her entire life. Can't recommend enough!”
“Beth was great to work with. I have a high anxiety dog and it went much better than I hoped. Beth was calm and reassured me it would be fine and it was! It was nice to be able to enjoy my vacation and not spend it worrying about our dog.”
“Brenna was super confident about taking care of my slow to warm up dog and I felt very reassured that he would be in good hands. She was patient with him and helped him eat which he can be hesitant to do, and send lots of pictures of him lounging at her house. He was very relaxed when I picked him up! Would definitely book again and I recommend Brenna for anxious dogs.”
“Kiersa is very easy to work with, responds very quickly to messages and is very pleasant and professional! Benelli seems to really like her, glad the initial visit went so well, will definitely book again!”
“Valerie and family took great care of Hobie my dog. I've boarded him at two places that are kennel type over night with multiple dogs. He loves other dogs but he always came home stressed and once with kennel cough. Those stays it took him about two weeks to get back to normal. With his stay at Valerie's with only him he came home happy and healthy. Valerie communicated with me and sent pictures while he was at her house with her family. I highly recommend her!”
“Our dog Rio had a BLAST with Rachelle and Dan. They were very detailed oriented when it came to Rio’s special needs. They also sent the perfect amount of updates and pictures throughout the stay. Definitely will book again!”
“Joey was an amazing dog sitter! Lots of pictures, great communication, and my pups were so happy while they were there. They got to play all day and clearly received lots of love, would definitely recommend!”
“Natalie had great communication with us. Loved the photos and comments she sent, especially the ones of Joben sitting on their laps and playing with the other dogs. I will definitely contact her again when needed and would recommend her to all.”
“We left our dog with Brittney for a full week while we were on vacation. It was our first experience with Rover and we were beyond pleased with our experience and the care Pippa received! We will absolutely be choosing Brittney again for future dog sitting needs we have.”
“We are so thrilled to find Cherie. She and her family are so great to our dogs, who by the way have anxiety, but the dogs seem to feel good about going to Cherie's.”
About: Home full-time and just steps from miles of walking trails, your dog will enjoy plenty of exercise, attention, and companionship throughout the day. We currently have Loki, our friendly 5-year-old Golden Retriever, who loves other dogs, playing outside, and spending time with our two boys. Our boys absolutely love dogs and are gentle, affectionate, and excited to help make visiting dogs feel like part of the family. Boarding with us means your dog will be welcomed into a real home — not treated like just another booking. We only board one dog at a time, which allows us to give your dog plenty of attention, keep the environment calm, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. We do not have a fenced yard, but we have a large, wooded yard (.6 acres) where dogs can safely enjoy time outside on a lead. We also live right by a regional walking/biking trail, so frequent walks and outdoor time are easy and part of our routine. I am comfortable caring for all dogs, including senior dogs, rescue dogs, dogs with separation anxiety, and dogs who need a little extra patience or reassurance. I have experience giving medications, crate training, leash walking, basic obedience, and helping dogs settle into a new environment. I am active and outdoorsy, so dogs who enjoy walks, playtime, and being part of family life will fit in well here. For everyone’s safety and comfort, visiting dogs must be potty trained, kid-friendly, and non-aggressive. They do not need to be crate trained. We are not currently accepting puppies. Our goal is simple: to give your dog a safe, loving, active place to stay where they get the kind of care we would want for our own dog. My husband and I both work from home on alternating schedules, so caring for dogs are part of our normal daily rhythm. We are available throughout the day for potty breaks, attention, feeding, walks, and check-ins. We live right on a regional trail, which makes daily walks easy, and we also spend time outside in our large yard with dogs safely on a lead. Pet care naturally fits into our family routine — walks, playtime, downtime, and lots of love. Your dog can expect a warm, active family home with plenty of attention, outdoor time, and affection. Because we only board one guest dog at a time, your dog will get personalized care, a calm environment, and lots of time with our friendly Golden Retriever, Loki. We want dogs to feel comfortable, safe, and included while you are away. We have a large yard, but it is not fenced, so visiting dogs are always kept safe on a lead when outside. Our home includes two dog-loving boys and our friendly Golden, so visiting dogs should be kid-friendly, potty trained, and comfortable around another dog. We can crate your dog if that is part of their normal routine, but crate training is not required. We are happy to follow your dog’s feeding, medication, walking, and sleep routines as closely as possible to help them feel secure.
“Rosemarie and Gerald did a great job taking care of our two elderly dogs. One of our dogs really struggles with mobility issues, and they were very patient and caring with her. Great communication from them as well with lots of pics and updates.”

“Joey was great. She handled the special medicine put kitties needed and fed them separately. She made sure she undid what they needed and provided excellent communication. Thanks!”
“Lindy did a great job with our cats! She packed a lot of playtime and cuddles into her visits and sent us pictures afterward. We appreciate her helping us out and would definitely book with her again!”
“Third time hiring Kristin. We hope she continue to care for our fur babies/family. She's reliable, knowledgeable, and kind. Our pets love her, too! Don't hesitate to book.”
“Paige was a wonderful sitter! She was so kind and communicative, leaving us great updates and pictures from her visits. We didn’t worry about our boys at all! Would definitely recommend Paige😺”
“This is the third time Nicole has cared for our cat, Cheeto, while we’ve been away. We always get good updates, we come home to a tidy litter box, and this time we even came home to a cat who wasn’t mad at us after 10 days away. He was happy to see us but contented. Will continue to ask Nicole to check in on Cheeto whenever we’re away!”
About: I have been training dogs since I was little, first with my very first dog at the age of 8 and since with my current rescues as well as family and friend’s pets. But when I’m not helping train and take care of them I am an avid playmate for all pets. I am currently working full time home from school for the summer so I am available for walks and playtime or any care in the afternoons, after 3 pm. I am available for boarding and visits on the weekends after 9 am. I enjoy taking my dogs on daily walks as well as playtime almost every day. I brush my dogs hair regularly, especially as they shed for the summer. My favorite activities to keep them active however are bike rides, jogs and going to the dog park.
“Kayla does such a good job with our cat, Sammy. We’ve used her a couple times now and she is always very responsive. We can tell by the photos that Sammy enjoys hanging out with her. She’s the definition of a 5 star pet sitter!”

“Michelle was fantastic! I felt very comfortable leaving my cats with her. She did super well with their complicated feeding instructions. She also left great descriptions on how my cats were with many photos! Will definitely book with Michelle again.”

About: I have a special love for animals and have been relied on by friends and family for many years to help out with their pets when needed.

“Ashly was great with my four boys and sought them out to give them some love while she was here. The photos were lovely and I could tell they felt comfort with her. I’ve already hired her for my next work trip.”
“Jan did a wonderful job dropping in on our cats at home! She spent time playing with the cats, getting even our shy Bella to engage 🙂 She even brought over a new toy for them to try! Jan kept us informed throughout, with pictures from every visit, and went above and beyond to give the cats human interaction and playtime! Our cats are fed twice a day, dry food in the morning and wet food in the evening with some special instructions and Jan fed them exactly the way we wanted. Our cats were so well cared for! We will definitely book with her again! Thank you so much, Jan!”
“Jennifer is fantastic! She took extra good care of our 4 elderly cats with special dietary requirements and medication schedules. She brought us peace of mind while on our vacation which is very much appreciated! We have worked with her before and will surely do so again.”
“Bec was great with checking on both my cats! She kept me updated with pictures and a recap of her visit with them. She made sure they had plenty of food, water, love and attention.”
About: I've grown up caring for three dogs at once in a busy household, so I’m no stranger to managing multiple pets with love and attention. I’ve also worked at a dog daycare, gaining hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m especially confident with dog walking and making sure every pup gets the care, exercise, and attention they need.

I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow your instructions closely and keep your home clean and secure.

“Kristen and her family welcomed Oreo as if he was their own dog. I felt confident that he was getting all the attention he needed. He got some love and exercise and a much welcomed break from his new little fur brother for the day. He is a fast eater, so still eats a lunch and that wasn't an issue at all for them. I know he would be happy to go back for a visit and some playtime with the kids anytime. Thanks for taking such great care of our big boy!”
“Bagel loved her time at Carine’s home. She had so much fun with the kids and other pups staying with them and slept good at home afterward. We got lots of pics which is so fun! Thanks for taking such great care of bagel!!!”

About: I’ve had dogs all my life, helping my parents take care of them growing up. In highschool I got a job at a pet hotel and worked there for a year.

About: Hi! I’m Steph — a full-time pet caregiver through Rover and the heart behind a growing pet photography business. Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13 and have experience with all kinds of animals, from high-energy pups to quiet companions. I share my life with my dog Scooby, who’s a big lovebug and gets along great with both people and other animals, and two leopard geckos, Helios and Haku, who each have their own little quirks and charm. Over the years, I’ve worked closely with dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I also have hands-on experience with pet nutrition and wellness—I've worked with a variety of healthy foods, natural supplements, and holistic care routines. I’m great at picking up on subtle signs when something’s off and take pet health seriously. Whether we’re playing fetch, going for a walk, or just snuggling on the couch, I’m all about creating a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe and cared for. I tailor my care to each animal’s unique personality and needs, and I always follow your instructions to a T—because your peace of mind matters just as much as your pet’s happiness. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels loved, understood, and completely at ease while you’re away. I am very flexible with my schedule so please feel free to send me a request or a direct message to sent up an appointment! I have worked with certified fear free trainers as well as being a groomer for 3 years now I am very aware of animal body language and how to meet their needs so they feel safe in their environment. I do have a dachshund mix named Scooby that is incredibly friendly with Small to XL dogs. She’s always up for having a play date!

I spend most of my off hours training my current rescue dog and loving on my senior dog. I am a tv show connoisseur as well! I provide stability and consistency. I also do provide cuddling services if so requested by your pet. Thanks for reading and reach out with any questions! ** in case you are wondering the story behind photo 7, sweet Bianca gets really scared of fireworks and thunder, she has a favorite spot in the bathroom and I didn’t want her to be alone! So I camped in the bathroom with her and brought in the trusty ol kindle. :) I work full time within the community to help disabled communities. I work Monday-Friday typically between 32-40 hours weekly outside of the home. I love coming home to a new face & sticking to a dog’s regular routine. Willing to wake up early for a good walk and some quality time on the couch when dinner comes! When taking care of a clients pet, I try not to stray from their routine and lots of loving. I am extremely patient and will give any dog the time they need to warm up to me - I’m a stranger! By the end of my stay, your dog will miss me when I go out the door - guaranteed by all paws I’ve dogsat for already!
About: My husband and I grew up with dogs our whole lives and we owned a small dog for 15 years. We are often one our neighbors and relatives call when they need a pet sitter. We are excited to meet new dogs and families and offer pet care. Our home is warm and welcoming and we like to give pets a lot of attention. We feel they are a part of our family when they are with us. You will receive pictures and regular updates while your dog is with us, so you can be reassured your pets are having a wonderful vacation too. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family members! My husband works from home. I work from home at times and we have two older kids who are often home to help too. We are never away for more than 4 hours at a time. We follow the owner’s preferences. We will use leashes, harnesses, etc. when on walks. We will administer medications as needed. Dogs can sleep in our beds.
About: I care for my family’s dog, Moxie, every day alongside my siblings. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure he stays happy, active, and comfortable. What sets me apart is that I understand every pet has different needs and routines. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to following your instructions closely so your pet receives the same care and consistency they’re used to at home. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, active playtime, or simply having company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ve also cared for small pets in the past and have always enjoyed spending time with animals. My goal is to provide dependable care and give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. I’m currently a college student and work part-time during the summer, which gives me flexibility to provide pet care throughout the week. My work schedule varies from week to week, but because I work part-time, I have plenty of availability for drop-in visits, walks, and quality time with your pets. I typically know my schedule in advance and do my best to accommodate pet care requests whenever possible. I’m also usually available on weekends and enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs, whether that’s going for walks, playing, or simply keeping them company. I’ve always been an animal lover….I’m usually the one in the corner spending more time with the pets than the people at family gatherings! In fact, I even made a PowerPoint presentation to convince my family to get our goldendoodle, Moxie. My priority is making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and needs, follow instructions carefully, and provide consistent, reliable care. Whether I’m stopping by for a visit or taking your dog on a walk, I’ll treat them like my own, with patience, attention, playtime, and affection. I also respect my clients’ homes and will care for your pet and belongings responsibly while you’re away.
About: Hi! My name is Cressa, caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life! I have experience with both cats and dogs of all sizes, ages and temperaments and understand that each animal is unique! I am reliable, communicative and flexible with scheduling and would love to care for your babies! Why book with me ⭐️ Complimentary meet and greet ⭐️ Tons of photos of your fur baby ⭐️Confidence in knowing that your animal is being loved and cared for I am in college but still have plenty of time to care for your loved ones! I am fortunate that most of my classes are online and I have a light schedule! I will respect any rules that you guys have in your homes as far as yard or crate training. I am good at walking the dogs and playing with them in the yard. I would never play at a park with your unleashed dog.
About: I had a family dog until he passed when he was 16 years old that my family & I adopted when I 6 years old. I took over care for him in my teenage years, as we were attached at the hip. I now have my own dog who I rescued and has been part of my family since Mar 2018. I have experience working for a pet-care business, both as a walker and an office administrator. My family has also owned a cat, a turtle and a fish! I have a fairly flexible schedule, so my days are open and welcome the addition of taking care of fur babies during the day from late morning to early evening! I am very attentive when inside of a client’s home and treat it as if it were my own! I am great with attention to detail.

“Amazing Care for Our High-Energy Doodle Puppy! We couldn't have been happier with the care Jeremiah provided for our energetic doodle puppy during his three-day stay. Finding someone who can handle a young, high-energy dog is crucial, and Jeremiah exceeded all our expectations. Their home is incredibly clean and nice, and the fenced backyard was perfect for our puppy to burn off steam safely. It was a huge bonus that they have their own sweet doodle—our guy had an absolute blast making a new friend and getting constant companionship! Communication was prompt and reassuring. We received updates and very cute pictures via text throughout the stay, which made us feel completely at ease. They took him on multiple walks and ensured he received excellent care and attention the entire time. Overall, our puppy truly enjoyed his stay, and we are totally satisfied. We will absolutely be repeat customers and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and fun home for their dog!”
“Frank and Clarissa were amazing. They sent us pictures, let us know how our dog was doing and kept us at ease. Our dog can be a little shy when he first meets people and they made him feel like part of their family. Highly recommend!”
“Carine and Eric took excellent care of my older Boston terrier. They kept me up to date on his activities and provided photos while we were away. I felt comfortable knowing he was in caring and capable hands. Will gladly book with them again for future care!”
“Kristen and family were fantastic with our (almost) 7 year old Goldendoodle. She shared a few pictures while we were away and it's instantly clear they treated our dog as if she had been with the family her entire life. Can't recommend enough!”
“Beth was great to work with. I have a high anxiety dog and it went much better than I hoped. Beth was calm and reassured me it would be fine and it was! It was nice to be able to enjoy my vacation and not spend it worrying about our dog.”
“Kiersa is very easy to work with, responds very quickly to messages and is very pleasant and professional! Benelli seems to really like her, glad the initial visit went so well, will definitely book again!”
“Valerie and family took great care of Hobie my dog. I've boarded him at two places that are kennel type over night with multiple dogs. He loves other dogs but he always came home stressed and once with kennel cough. Those stays it took him about two weeks to get back to normal. With his stay at Valerie's with only him he came home happy and healthy. Valerie communicated with me and sent pictures while he was at her house with her family. I highly recommend her!”
“Our dog Rio had a BLAST with Rachelle and Dan. They were very detailed oriented when it came to Rio’s special needs. They also sent the perfect amount of updates and pictures throughout the stay. Definitely will book again!”
“Joey was an amazing dog sitter! Lots of pictures, great communication, and my pups were so happy while they were there. They got to play all day and clearly received lots of love, would definitely recommend!”
“We left our dog with Brittney for a full week while we were on vacation. It was our first experience with Rover and we were beyond pleased with our experience and the care Pippa received! We will absolutely be choosing Brittney again for future dog sitting needs we have.”
About: Home full-time and just steps from miles of walking trails, your dog will enjoy plenty of exercise, attention, and companionship throughout the day. We currently have Loki, our friendly 5-year-old Golden Retriever, who loves other dogs, playing outside, and spending time with our two boys. Our boys absolutely love dogs and are gentle, affectionate, and excited to help make visiting dogs feel like part of the family. Boarding with us means your dog will be welcomed into a real home — not treated like just another booking. We only board one dog at a time, which allows us to give your dog plenty of attention, keep the environment calm, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. We do not have a fenced yard, but we have a large, wooded yard (.6 acres) where dogs can safely enjoy time outside on a lead. We also live right by a regional walking/biking trail, so frequent walks and outdoor time are easy and part of our routine. I am comfortable caring for all dogs, including senior dogs, rescue dogs, dogs with separation anxiety, and dogs who need a little extra patience or reassurance. I have experience giving medications, crate training, leash walking, basic obedience, and helping dogs settle into a new environment. I am active and outdoorsy, so dogs who enjoy walks, playtime, and being part of family life will fit in well here. For everyone’s safety and comfort, visiting dogs must be potty trained, kid-friendly, and non-aggressive. They do not need to be crate trained. We are not currently accepting puppies. Our goal is simple: to give your dog a safe, loving, active place to stay where they get the kind of care we would want for our own dog. My husband and I both work from home on alternating schedules, so caring for dogs are part of our normal daily rhythm. We are available throughout the day for potty breaks, attention, feeding, walks, and check-ins. We live right on a regional trail, which makes daily walks easy, and we also spend time outside in our large yard with dogs safely on a lead. Pet care naturally fits into our family routine — walks, playtime, downtime, and lots of love. Your dog can expect a warm, active family home with plenty of attention, outdoor time, and affection. Because we only board one guest dog at a time, your dog will get personalized care, a calm environment, and lots of time with our friendly Golden Retriever, Loki. We want dogs to feel comfortable, safe, and included while you are away. We have a large yard, but it is not fenced, so visiting dogs are always kept safe on a lead when outside. Our home includes two dog-loving boys and our friendly Golden, so visiting dogs should be kid-friendly, potty trained, and comfortable around another dog. We can crate your dog if that is part of their normal routine, but crate training is not required. We are happy to follow your dog’s feeding, medication, walking, and sleep routines as closely as possible to help them feel secure.
“Rosemarie and Gerald did a great job taking care of our two elderly dogs. One of our dogs really struggles with mobility issues, and they were very patient and caring with her. Great communication from them as well with lots of pics and updates.”
“These folks are tremendous! They are so kind and attentive to each dog. Many photos and almost daily communications are sent to the "dog parents". They are attuned to any special needs a dog may have.”
“We were so happy with our choice to have Ozzy stay with Andrew and his girls. He was well taken care of and came home a happy dog. I was nervous about leaving Ozzy for so long with someone we didn't know, but Andrew talked to us on the phone a few nights before and eased our minds. He sent us photos and updates almost every day and always responded quickly to any messages I sent. We hope to use Andrew again in the future! Bonus was his dog Gunner. Ozzy loves other dogs and he and Gunner seemed to hit it off.”
“Regina is a consummate dog lover and pro at keeping dogs happy and content! Darby loved his visit and is coming back for another! Highly recommend - great communication, care, and doggy love!”
“Kahli is part of Melissa's family! She looks happy in every picture she sends to us. We are totally comfortable leaving on vacation knowing how well-cared for Kahli will be.”
“Look no further, Trish is the absolute best! Bogey loved his stay and got all the attention and love he could get and got to hang with with some new friends. I'm sure there are many good care takers on here, but I can't see how any could be better than with Trish! Next time I need care for Bogey, she's the one for sure!”
