Tammy was very accommodating to my last minute boarding request for my dog Stella. Her and her husband John were extremely welcoming, took the time to go over all of Stella’s needs, and kept me updated throughout her stay! They are very attentive, and l felt very comfortable leaving her in their care. I would recommend Tammy over and over again!

Anna is SUCH A GREAT SITTER. I was extremely nervous leaving my babies with her simply because my girls can be shy at first, and are much so “mama’s girls,” but they have grown to love her very much. They get excited in the morning when they know they’re leaving for daycare, and they are always so pooped when they get home at the end of the day! I absolutely adore the photo updates she sends me, I can see just how much fun my pups are having while they’re away from home. Highly recommend her to care for your kiddos!

Amy is beyond amazing!!! I would not second guess leaving my pet with her. She is such a caring person and it shows from her skills she has with pets. Amy was so welcoming to my pup and cared for her. She was also very flexible when I had to extend my dogs stay for longer than expected. She even got my dog to eat, and she sometimes has anxiety being in new places. Amy sends pictures and updates of your pet. She did an amazing job!!

About: I have over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all sizes, from large farm animals like cows and horses to household pets including dogs, cats, and rabbits. My background includes working with both family pets and farm animals, giving me experience with different temperaments, routines, and care needs. In addition to my professional and educational experience, I also raise and care for my own animals, including rabbits, poultry, dogs, and cats. I am currently pursuing a B.S. in Animal Science with a minor in Histotechnology, along with a dual major in Canine Management and Training. My education has strengthened my knowledge of animal behavior, health, handling, and proper care techniques. In addition to my schooling, I was involved in 4-H for 10 years and FFA for 6 years, where I gained extensive experience in animal husbandry, responsibility, and daily animal care. I have also worked as a kennel assistant in a veterinary hospital and as a stable hand at a horse rescue ranch, where I assisted with feeding, cleaning, exercise, monitoring animal health, and providing compassionate care. I am also comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions to ensure pets stay healthy and comfortable. What sets me apart is my combination of real-world animal experience, formal education, and genuine passion for animal care. I am comfortable caring for pets of different ages, sizes, and energy levels, and I strive to provide safe, patient, and reliable care that helps pets feel comfortable and owners feel confident. I am currently a college student home for the summer, looking to stay busy. I work as a softball coach on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, as well as weekends. While I am not coaching, I am looking to spend my time with animals. Pets in my care are treated like family, and their safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. At my home, we have 20 wooded acres with plenty of space for exercise, enrichment, and outdoor time. Dogs can enjoy supervised leash walks or long-line walks, depending on their needs and the owner’s preference. I always make sure pets are safely handled and closely supervised at all times. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and relaxed in their familiar environment. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions to make sure each pet gets the care they are used to. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are in good hands.

About: I love animals and have cared for them my whole life. I'm a great listener and will do my best to accommodate to your dog and help you feel at easy leaving them in my care. I have two labrador retrievers, one cat, horses and chickens. I train my dogs in obedience and hunting. Both my dogs are guide dogs at a hunt club and are kennel trained. I love animals and feel blessed to work from home and spend all day with them. I have a large fenced in back yard. I do have horses and will make sure your pet is safe. I have a nice big porch that I have open to the dogs in the summer to enjoy the nice weather. I can provide mid-day walks when the weather is nice! I have two kids ages 6 and 8 that live with me. They are great with animals but will not be directly provided care for any dogs. Please don't hesitate to ask questions! I'm here to provide a safe and comfortable environment for your dog. **All dogs must be potty trained with the exception of dogs under 6 months that are still learning to potty train. I work from home and can let out dogs for potty breaks multiple times a day. They can lounge around my home and play with toys. I do have one older cat that likes to come out and say hi. She is more of a cat-dog. If I have dogs that need more potty breaks and stimulation, we can discuss a pet care plan for them while they are here. If for any reason pets are unattended, I have kennels for them to stay in. My computer is in the living room area where I can watch the dogs inside and outside the house. During the school year my kids will be at school. They are great with animals and understand how to treat animals with care and respect.

About: My husband and I have both grown up with pets and have continued caring for animals throughout our adult lives. We have extensive hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, and we currently care for a variety of animals in our home, including fish, a bearded dragon, a leopard gecko, a hamster, and hermit crabs. This has given us a strong understanding of different care needs, routines, and behaviors across species. We’re attentive, patient, and comfortable following specific instructions — whether that’s maintaining feeding schedules, administering basic care, or helping pets feel calm and safe in a new environment. We truly treat every pet as if they were our own. Because we work from home, pet care naturally fits into our daily routine. We’re around throughout the day to provide attention, playtime, feeding, and companionship, not just quick check-ins. Our flexible schedule allows us to adapt to each pet’s needs, whether that means extra cuddles, medication reminders, or keeping a consistent routine so pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. We care for pets as if they are part of our own family. In our home, pets have plenty of space to relax and play safely. We live on 10 acres, which allows for supervised outdoor time, walks, and fresh air, and we also have a large outdoor kennel available when appropriate for a pet’s comfort and safety. When caring for pets in a client’s home, we focus on consistency, attentiveness, and respect for each pet’s routine. We follow feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication instructions, and any special requests closely. We make it a priority to be responsive, communicative, and attentive so both pets and owners feel comfortable and confident while they’re away.

About: I’m blessed to be able to work from home to provide your pup the attention they need. Your pup will have two daily walks, playtime in the fenced backyard, a box of indoor toys with two dog beds and a kennel bed to choose from. My pup Gus recently passed so, I’m looking to share my love, cuddles, energy and basically spoil your pup. I used Roover for my pup so I know how important receiving multiple daily photos and videos are so you know your pet is safe and having fun. If your pet requires, I offer baths, brushing, trimming, administering medications, and hygiene needs. I was particular with my pups care and I can do the same for you, consistently is important to you and your pup. I’m excited to provide care to your pup’s needs until you return home. Since I work from home, it’s easy to provide the personalized care your pet needs. I’m willing to customize my schedule for your pet needs. Your pets safety is my priority. I provide leashed walks, and/or play time in the backyard. I’m able to customize a plan that best fits your dog’s needs.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have had both cats and dogs since I was a little girl. Caring for pets has always been a huge part of my life, and I truly love being around animals of all kinds. I currently have three dogs of my own, so I’m very familiar with daily care, walks, feeding routines, playtime, and giving pets the attention and love they deserve. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll care for them like they’re part of my own family. I have a flexible and reliable schedule that allows me to provide consistent pet care throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I am able to accommodate regular visits, overnight care, and extended stays when needed. I understand that pets thrive on routine, so I prioritize dependability and clear communication to ensure each pet receives steady, attentive care while you’re away. I provide calm, attentive care in either my client’s home or my own, always prioritizing each pet’s comfort, safety, and routine. I create a low-stress environment where pets can feel secure and relaxed, following their normal feeding schedules, exercise needs, litter box or habitat care, and any specific instructions provided. I take time to build trust at the pet’s pace, especially with shy or anxious animals, and I pay close attention to their behavior and wellbeing. Communication with pet owners is consistent so you always feel informed and confident your pet is being well cared for.

I can tell by the way Echo is always so excited to see Julie that she has a good time when with her and trusts her. She readily hops up into Julie's car without even so much as a glance back! And I love Julie's calm demeanor, regardless of the action with numerous dogs. And I think the dogs love it too. Echo always comes hope happy and exhausted - exactly what I'm after. :)

About: I’ve always had a special place in my heart for dogs. I have cared for my own dogs and others ranging from puppies to senior dogs, since I was a teenager. I work from home full time so your pet will always have someone around to hang out or play with. They will have plenty of attention from me and my sweet kiddos who will love on your furry friend as if it were their own. I have a senior beagle who will quickly become your fur babies best friend. He is super chill and sleeps most of the day away. I also have two kiddos who love to play with pups and take them for walks. Your pet will be leashed when going outside but will have plenty of space to move about.

About: I have over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all sizes, from large farm animals like cows and horses to household pets including dogs, cats, and rabbits. My background includes working with both family pets and farm animals, giving me experience with different temperaments, routines, and care needs. In addition to my professional and educational experience, I also raise and care for my own animals, including rabbits, poultry, dogs, and cats. I am currently pursuing a B.S. in Animal Science with a minor in Histotechnology, along with a dual major in Canine Management and Training. My education has strengthened my knowledge of animal behavior, health, handling, and proper care techniques. In addition to my schooling, I was involved in 4-H for 10 years and FFA for 6 years, where I gained extensive experience in animal husbandry, responsibility, and daily animal care. I have also worked as a kennel assistant in a veterinary hospital and as a stable hand at a horse rescue ranch, where I assisted with feeding, cleaning, exercise, monitoring animal health, and providing compassionate care. I am also comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions to ensure pets stay healthy and comfortable. What sets me apart is my combination of real-world animal experience, formal education, and genuine passion for animal care. I am comfortable caring for pets of different ages, sizes, and energy levels, and I strive to provide safe, patient, and reliable care that helps pets feel comfortable and owners feel confident. I am currently a college student home for the summer, looking to stay busy. I work as a softball coach on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, as well as weekends. While I am not coaching, I am looking to spend my time with animals. Pets in my care are treated like family, and their safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. At my home, we have 20 wooded acres with plenty of space for exercise, enrichment, and outdoor time. Dogs can enjoy supervised leash walks or long-line walks, depending on their needs and the owner’s preference. I always make sure pets are safely handled and closely supervised at all times. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and relaxed in their familiar environment. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions to make sure each pet gets the care they are used to. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are in good hands.

Alisha and Cameron took such great care of our dog Bear! He was so happy at their house. They provided lots of updates and pictures. I know he got lots of love. They have been our favorite Rover family to date!

I was afraid to leave my dog with someone I had never met. They were amazing with my little dog. She doesn’t like most people but she loved them by the time I picked her up!

Brandy and her family did a wonderful job taking care of my dog! Photos every day! My dog is a geriatric with special needs and he was very well taken care of. I would definitely use them again!

Talisha took such good care of my dogs. One is 13-1/2 and the other a 1 year old. They were there almost 2 weeks. I will definitely call on Talisha again!

This was Bruno’s first weekend with Michelle, after a successful meet and greet. We really appreciated the daily updates and pictures. Bruno had a good time and made some new friends. We plan on using Michelle again.

Amy is beyond amazing!!! I would not second guess leaving my pet with her. She is such a caring person and it shows from her skills she has with pets. Amy was so welcoming to my pup and cared for her. She was also very flexible when I had to extend my dogs stay for longer than expected. She even got my dog to eat, and she sometimes has anxiety being in new places. Amy sends pictures and updates of your pet. She did an amazing job!!

Alex was great with my nervous guy. We’ve boarded him in the past and he always seemed to be anxious and have trouble eating. He settled in quickly with Alex. I think being in a home environment was more like his everyday routine.

Kyle provided a comfortable stay for my dog Len's first Rover experience. Even though it was a pretty short stay it was so nice to get pictures and an update on how Len was doing. Will definitely be using Kyle again!

Julie took great care of my two dogs Ollie and Hercules. Her two big dogs were wonderful around my little dogs. The backyard is fenced and safe and I felt content leaving my dogs with her. I will be coming back.

Dave was amazing! We left our 2 dogs with him over thanksgiving. He gave daily updates with photos and answered any questions super quickly. We have one dog selective dog and he made sure to make him comfortable and not have to interact with any. Our other dog is a flight risk and he made sure she never got out of his yard. I think the dogs enjoyed their vacation as much as we did. We will for sure use Dave anytime he has availability!

Our Willow was cared for and loved just as we would with Shana and her family. Willow even ate right away there (something she doesn’t do often when a little stressed) so she obviously didn’t miss a beat going there for boarding. We will definitely use Shana again if she is available!
