“Awesome communications and amazing pics of our 2 pups. Such a relief knowing our babies were safe and happy. Highly recommend and definitely use again and again. Thank you so much!!!”
“John and Teri were fantastic! They took amazing care of our quirky doodle, and we really appreciate their kindness, communication, pictures, and care! Would recommend them to any and all and will totally use them again! Thank you for giving us peace of mind while we were away! Bonus was a huge fenced in yard to let the 🐕 roam!”
“Jennifer was amazing!!! She took such precious care of our Mayo buddy! She responded so quickly, allowed for last minute booking, and sent updates the entire time! Mayo loved playing with the Corgis! He never gets to play with dogs his size so he loved that! They had lots of sunshine and outdoor time! We will use Jennifer again!”
“Aish was wonderful. Answered all my questions. Sent lots of pictures. My puppy had a great time. Felt much better going on vacation knowing she was loved and cared for.”
“Phoebe had a great time staying with Trudy and her dog, Archie. We really appreciated how natural she was with Phoebe's quirks and willing to answer questions, especially with it being our first time boarding through Rover. It was great that Phoebe got lots of time playing outside with her new friend, Archie. They even worked on commands with Phoebe. We're sure Phoebe would love staying with them again!”
“Leanna was great! I appreciated her updates and pictures, especially since it was our first time boarding with her and her family. Henri made himself at home and seemed to fit right in! We will definitely use Leanna again!”
“Heather took great care of my doggo over the holidays. I know he had a blast from the photos she sent. Happy to know my dog has a new furry friend to hang out with.”
“This was our first time having our newly adopted boys stay with a sitter while we were away from a wedding. We are so thankful we came across Karen’s profile because she turned out to be the perfect match! Karen and her family provided lots of love to our dogs, sent many photos of their time together, and she was very responsive and thorough in all of her communications. Our boys came very happy and so did we! We will be looking for Karen again in the future and we highly encourage others to do the same!”
“Sarah and Richard were great! They were very accommodating of our thunder-anxious dog and flexible with pick up and drop off. And they sent a video in addition to photos!”
“Serah was an amazing person to have as our little Lita’s foster momma while we had an extended vacation. She kept us in the loop with texts and pictures. It was so reassuring to have our pup taken care of and loved as her own. Lita loved the fenced in yard and having Riley, Serah’s dog, as her playmate. We highly recommend Serah. We will definitely choose her again as our first choice in dog sitters.”
“Mike was great! He kept us updated with pictures and videos of Murphy everyday. Murphy has some separation anxiety, but Mike reassured us that he was adjusting well to his new surroundings. Murphy enjoyed playing with his dog friends all weekend! I would definitely use Mike again!”
“It was our first time on the Rover site and we needed someone to board our sweet girls Betsy & Bailey for about 2 weeks. We were moving and we knew they would not do well with all the change at once. And what we found was the best! Jazmin and her great family took them in as if they were their own pups. The love, snuggles and support they received from the entire family was immeasurable. We will be doing this again soon! I’m talking about top notch dog people! We are truly blessed to have found Jazmin!”
“Lan took great care of our dog Jorah, while we were away for the weekend, would 100% recommend Lan to anyone in need of a pet sitter and will utilize her in the future! She sent us pictures of Jorah every day and let us know how he was doing! She was always quick to respond as well.”
“Elyse (and her lovely family) provided the perfect place for us to leave our Chihuahua mix for our trip. She sent lots of pictures and descriptions of his day so that I always felt like I knew how he was doing. She was also quick to answer my texts and any questions that I had. He was so very comfortable there that he ate well, slept peacefully, played tug, snuggled all the humans, went for a car ride, interacted and got his sniffs in at a dog park and played happily with the 1 other pup in Elyse's care. He clearly felt at home. He also transitioned beautifully to actually being back home with no signs of stress. We feel incredibly lucky to have found Elyse and I'm so grateful that Herman has found her, too. We will happily leave Herman with Elyse again because we know, with certainty, that she'll love and care for him like we do.”
“Monika and her pet family were wonderful with my two dogs. My dogs got along well with her pets and loved the large, fenced back yard. My older dog is deaf and has some GI issues requiring medication which Monika took care of for me. The pictures she sent on a daily basis showed how happy they were and cared for. They stayed for a week and loved every minute with her family.”
“Chelsie and her family were not only amazing and patient with Tilly, welcoming her into their home while we were away, but she was incredibly flexible with our ever changing travel schedule. Due to weather that prevented us from getting home when we originally anticipated, Chelsie was extremely understanding and accommodating to help extend Tilly’s stay with her family. This was so helpful by taking one thing off of our already stressful plates. Thank you for everything, Chelsie!”

“Kallyn is wonderful! We have a shy cat who tends to hide when we’re away. He loved Kallyn from the moment she walked in the door and came out to see her while we were gone! She sent lots of updates and pictures and was great to work with. Couldn’t recommend more!”

I had to bring her home and keep one of her babies. They are so sweet and crazy rascals. I have no problems taking care of older cats and kitties.
“I have 4 cats, 2 of them are 1/2 feral. They are indoor/outdoor and Derek made sure they all received wet food twice a day. They were happy kitties when I got home. I live in the country and Derek was willing to drive to help me out. A great experience, I will ask Derek for help with vacations in the future”

“Jessica was a great care giver for our cats while away. She stopped in and spent time with each kitty, took many pictures for us, and was a great communicator. We appreciated her reasonable rates and sweet and caring manner. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for peace of mind for your fur baby while way.”
“Jennifer is amazing! She always goes above and beyond to care for animals. I went on a 10 day Alaskan cruise and land tour, with limited cell phone service, and I never doubted that my kitty who needs insulin twice a day, was being cared for. She's very responsive and sends updates and pictures from each visit. Jennifer rescued a baby bird from my driveway and brought it to the Wildlife Center. She is the sweetest!! My kitty loves Jennifer's visits, so asking her to care for her always makes me feel comfortable! ♥️”
“Mikayla is a lifesaver (literally). Unfortunately the door to my place came unlocked after I left to go out of town. When she arrived she let me know she couldn’t find one of my cats. She was incredibly helpful in finding and sending the microchip info to me, looking around outside for my cat, and eventually returning him to safety. I am very thankful for her dedication and the care she provides for my cats.”

“Giovana and her family were so wonderful with Skye. I couldn’t have asked for a better puppy sitter. Thank you so much for treating Skye like he was part of your family. If I need a sitter again, hopefully you are available. 😁”
“Mike does a fabulous job caring for my dog George. He is very calm and patient with my high energy, exuberant pup who can be a stinker at times. I love that he keeps me in the know of the day’s activities both verbally and with daily photos and video. I am comfortable leaving my dog in his care where I am confident my dog is safe, happy and has tons of fun. I highly recommend Mike! -Kim”
About: I care for each pet as if they were my own. I walk, run and play with them. I treat every pet like a friend, offering comfort, attention and emotional connection. I bathe my dog about every other month. We have a routine in the morning with a walk before breakfast. Sometimes a walk around lunch time and another one after work is done. He is well loved and treated like a family member. I work full time Monday through Friday. I am in my office 3 half days and full time at home the other 2 days. I could stop at someone’s place on my way home to spend time with a dog and walk them. I can also stop over after work and later in the evening. In my home I have a fenced in yard that my dog can run free and play. If I am in a clients home I would make sure that there is nothing that the dog/puppy could get into after spending time with them/walking them.
“This was our first experience using Lynn to provide an afternoon of daycare for our two, 1-1/2 yr old labs Maggie and Willow. Lynn met with us for a visit before we booked this daycare service and we found Lynn to be very knowledgeable, confident, cheerful and pleasant to work with. She did a great job answering all of questions and gave us the time we needed to ask them. On the day of daycare she took extra care in introducing our pups to the other dogs since Maggie can be very timid and a bit insecure. Everything went really well and by all indications Maggie and Willow had a great time. We will certainly book future stays with Lynn.”

“Leanna took wonderful care of Nala. She was prompt and clear with communication, and very easy to work with. My booking was somewhat last minute but we were able to work out the details without any hassle. This was my first booking with her, but I will always consider booking her again should the need arise in the future!”

They will enjoy our fenced in backyard and will be allowed to roam through our entire home. Jazmin is a college student home for the summer, and is in her 3rd year. She is on the deans list, and committed to getting good grades, being reliable and dependable, and willing to help provide a loving home for your pet! Jazmin will be away starting mid-August and since our family enjoyed every single dog we had over the summer, Mary has decided to continue providing care to help offset college expenses. Mary works from home, so your pup will never be alone for more than a couple hours if needed to run errands. We had a boxer that we raised from 10 weeks old to 12 years old. Unfortunately she was laid to rest in February 25, so your pet will be given a lot of love and affection and help fill our empty home. We have experience with puppy's all the way to senior dogs who are blind, deaf, diabetic, have seizures, etc. We have watched family's, neighbors, and friends dogs. We would be honored for you to share your pup with us while you are away.

“Teddy was happy to spend the day with Amanda, she gave him lots of love and attention. I was so relieved that Teddy was well taken care of. It's a plus that she has a fenced in back yard.”
“Shannon and David were great taking our husky with separation anxiety for an evening. They were very communicative, responsive, and provided us with photos through the evening. We would not hesitate to have them watch Izze again.”
“Bethany was THE BEST person for my dog. She has a very lovely home that is tidy and has created such a calming and welcoming vibe. Throughout the sit, she would keep me informed on what was going on and reassured my anxieties of leaving my dog with her. She listens and respects any of your requests. I could tell my dog had a lovely time with her because by the time I came to pick him up, he was hesitant to leave, which all the good signs that he felt at home. If I'm ever in the area again, Bethany would ultimately be my first choice. Thank you Bethany for all you've done to help my dog feel like it was another home and friend to visit.”

I closely supervise all interactions and work to make sure every pet feels comfortable and secure. If your dog is crate-trained or needs to be crated, I can accommodate that as well. Dogs are welcome on our couches and, if that’s what they’re used to at home, they’re welcome to sleep on the bed at night, too. I do my best to follow your dog’s normal routine so they feel safe, relaxed, and right at home while you’re away.
“This was the first time we used Rover. We left Gunner for a daycare day to start. Carolyn and Kristopher were great with Gunner. Carolyn wrote down all the details of Gunner’s normal routine and his particular needs. He came home very tired which was a win. We will be using them again in February for a longer stay. So thankful we found such wonderful people to leave him with.”
“My five-month-old puppy still has a bit of separation anxiety, but he seemed to enjoy his day with Aish and other dogs. before the day we arranged a meet and greet to get a sense of the space - Aish has a large, fenced back yard that the dogs play in, with plenty room to roam. I received photos throughout the day, we communicated regularly via text, and on pick-up Smoke wanted to stay. I would use Aish again should the need arise.”

About: I have always had dogs in my life. From a black lab hunting dog, to an elderly chihuahua, and a puppy Siberian husky! I currently have two cats (mama & kitty) that I rescued from a foster home. Pets are the best!! I’m a retired US Air Force officer, so I have a lot of flexibility. I enjoy walking and taking my grand-dogs to the dog park. I’m home a lot because I’m retired from the military, so I have a ton of flexibility. So, I can spend a lot of time with your pet.
About: When my friends go on vacation, I am the first person they call to petsit! Animals warm up to my calm demeaner quickly, and I've been told by pet owners that their shy animals have never been so friendly to a new person so fast before. I have experience caring for cats & kittens, dogs, and birds. I am very patient and gentle with animals, seeking to understand their physical and vocal cues to know what they need. I am also an expert at playing fetch and tug of war with dogs, and my expertise with cat feather wands means the cat usually gets tired before I do. I love walking, so it's a bonus if your pup wants to come with! I am a graduate student at St. Thomas with a part-time tutoring job during the school year, so I have plenty of gaps in my schedule to care for your pet. This means that I can spend time during the day, night, and weekend with your pet, including returning home for potty or play breaks in between tutoring or classes, depending on the needs of your pet. I am also available to stay overnight with your pet, so long as they don't mind helping me with my homework! I am vigilant and aware while pet sitting, making sure I know where your pet is and never leaving any doors, gates, or windows open. For example, my friend lives in an apartment and has two kittens who like to escape into the hallway, so I also create a barrier when I open his front door to ensure they stay inside. His windows also don't have screens, so I make sure they are always shut and locked up tight. I love interacting with and talking with animals when they are around, so even if I am busy working on my own projects, I'll take frequent breaks to catch up with your pets and give them attention.

“John and Teri were fantastic! They took amazing care of our quirky doodle, and we really appreciate their kindness, communication, pictures, and care! Would recommend them to any and all and will totally use them again! Thank you for giving us peace of mind while we were away! Bonus was a huge fenced in yard to let the 🐕 roam!”
“Phoebe had a great time staying with Trudy and her dog, Archie. We really appreciated how natural she was with Phoebe's quirks and willing to answer questions, especially with it being our first time boarding through Rover. It was great that Phoebe got lots of time playing outside with her new friend, Archie. They even worked on commands with Phoebe. We're sure Phoebe would love staying with them again!”
“Leanna was great! I appreciated her updates and pictures, especially since it was our first time boarding with her and her family. Henri made himself at home and seemed to fit right in! We will definitely use Leanna again!”
“Heather took great care of my doggo over the holidays. I know he had a blast from the photos she sent. Happy to know my dog has a new furry friend to hang out with.”
“This was our first time having our newly adopted boys stay with a sitter while we were away from a wedding. We are so thankful we came across Karen’s profile because she turned out to be the perfect match! Karen and her family provided lots of love to our dogs, sent many photos of their time together, and she was very responsive and thorough in all of her communications. Our boys came very happy and so did we! We will be looking for Karen again in the future and we highly encourage others to do the same!”
“Sarah and Richard were great! They were very accommodating of our thunder-anxious dog and flexible with pick up and drop off. And they sent a video in addition to photos!”
“Serah was an amazing person to have as our little Lita’s foster momma while we had an extended vacation. She kept us in the loop with texts and pictures. It was so reassuring to have our pup taken care of and loved as her own. Lita loved the fenced in yard and having Riley, Serah’s dog, as her playmate. We highly recommend Serah. We will definitely choose her again as our first choice in dog sitters.”
“Mike was great! He kept us updated with pictures and videos of Murphy everyday. Murphy has some separation anxiety, but Mike reassured us that he was adjusting well to his new surroundings. Murphy enjoyed playing with his dog friends all weekend! I would definitely use Mike again!”
“It was our first time on the Rover site and we needed someone to board our sweet girls Betsy & Bailey for about 2 weeks. We were moving and we knew they would not do well with all the change at once. And what we found was the best! Jazmin and her great family took them in as if they were their own pups. The love, snuggles and support they received from the entire family was immeasurable. We will be doing this again soon! I’m talking about top notch dog people! We are truly blessed to have found Jazmin!”
“Monika and her pet family were wonderful with my two dogs. My dogs got along well with her pets and loved the large, fenced back yard. My older dog is deaf and has some GI issues requiring medication which Monika took care of for me. The pictures she sent on a daily basis showed how happy they were and cared for. They stayed for a week and loved every minute with her family.”
“Chelsie and her family were not only amazing and patient with Tilly, welcoming her into their home while we were away, but she was incredibly flexible with our ever changing travel schedule. Due to weather that prevented us from getting home when we originally anticipated, Chelsie was extremely understanding and accommodating to help extend Tilly’s stay with her family. This was so helpful by taking one thing off of our already stressful plates. Thank you for everything, Chelsie!”
About: I’ve grown up around animals and genuinely love caring for them like they’re part of the family. I’m reliable, attentive, and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I’m experienced with dogs of different ages and temperaments. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions and medications. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and check-ins to give you peace of mind. I work a flexible hybrid schedule - 3 days in office, 2 days at home. When we leave our dog home alone to roam the house Monday - Friday, she is alone 8:00 to 12:00 and 1:00 to 5:00 with a mid-day lunch and potty break. We have a 2-year-old 75 lb Pyredoodle who LOVES to play and wrestle, so your dog will have a built-in buddy. We also have a fully fenced backyard for safe playtime and exercise. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and beds. Our home is smoke-free and kid-free.
“Michelle was amazing with Arlo!! We got so many updates and she was very communicative. Our puppy is very energetic and she handled it like a pro. Even got him to start taking naps which we will be continuing! The whole family showed him love and we were so grateful to know he was safe and extremely cared for while we were gone. Absolutely recommend her!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for WALL-E! From the start, they were professional, kind, and highly experienced with dogs. WALL-E warmed up to them right away, which gave us so much peace of mind. We received regular updates, photos, and little messages about how he was doing, which we really appreciated. It was obvious he was not only well cared for, but genuinely happy and comfortable. We came home to a relaxed, happy pup — the best sign of all! We would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
“Aimee and Robert were great with a last minute booking for our nervous girl. In the middle of moving it was so nice to know Ruby was taken care of. She came home relaxed and happy.”
“Carla and her husband took excellent care of my girl, on short notice. She was happy. She made nice with her first cat encounters. She was well loved while I had work travel, which was exactly what we needed! Thank you Carla!!”
