“Karen and family took amazing care of our giant Newfoundland Nora. Spoiled her during her stay which was great to see. Pictures and updates daily showed how good of a time she had. Thank you for taking care of our baby.”


“Tonya made our pup feel so loved with plenty of cuddles and walks! Willow felt comfortable right away. She sent us a couple photos and messages each day so we knew how she was doing!”

“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.”

“Cassie is kind, calm, and unflappable in the face of our two mad, if adorable, Airedales, as well as our own human disorientation and disorganization. We had a one night stay as a trial run for our longer absence and it went really well. We feel confident our dogs will be well cared for while we're on vacation!”

“Landon, MaLese and and family are great with my dog! She gets so excited when she knows we're going over there, and they take great care of her, with regular updates throughout the visit. Highly recommend!”


“Thank you for taking such great care of Grizzly. He came home happy and tired. We loved receiving all of the updates and photos. We will definitely be reaching out the next time we need a dog sitter!”

“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.”

“Our dog loved her stay, and Brooklin kept us updated throughout our vacation, so we had peace of mind as well. I highly recommend Brooklin and her family as a safe and wonderful home for your pet while you're away.”
“This was our first time using Rover and first time for our Golden Retriever Leika, to stay with someone other than family. Jenny and her family took such good care of our dog and sent updates every day. I would definitely use them again and recommend to others!”

“Nicole & Derek are the first Rover family we have ever booked with. They were very friendly and our dogs really seemed to enjoy their time playing with the family. We were so happy to receive photos and updates during our trip. Definitely made the time away bearable knowing they were in such good hands.”

“Jenny was so easy and great to work with. She responded very quickly to my last minute plans and was able to watch my dog. She’s very sweet, communicative, and followed instructions well. Clean house and had another dog in the house, but my dog did great with her’s. Thank you so much for taking care of my baby! I would definitely go with Jenny again!”

“Hands down, Dynette is the best pet sitter I have ever used! She went above and beyond with my dog! She kept me informed and sent me pictures throughout the week and I have never been on a trip and felt so at ease about leaving my dog! I knew that my dog was in great hands and getting lots of love! I was so pleased that I am booking her for another vacation in a few months!”

“Jennifer did a great job with our pup. We enjoyed the photos updates. She doesn’t have a fenced yard but she is not anywhere near a main road and had a nice space for him to go out. She also took him for walks often. Our dog was in good spirits when we picked him up. Would highly recommend using her!”


“Mike has watching our pup a few times. Daisy is an anxious dog but by the end of our vacation, you could tell she was super chill. It was great seeing pics of her throughout our trip. Highly recommend Mike, he’s amazing!”

“Communication was excellent from start to finish, and it was clear she was knowledgeable about kittens and pet safety. Alissa was professional, reliable, and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We would book again and highly recommend!”

“My dog had so much fun running around Paula’s yard and playing with her own pups while I was out of town for a week. She is truly a dog person and I felt confident that he was in good hands. As a bonus, I was so happy and relieved to receive updates from her and photos throughout the week so that I could see that he was having fun and doing just fine. I would definitely book with her again!”

“Monica is great with Sophie and sends pictures/updates often, which I love. Sophie has taken to running out of the car and to her front door, which shows she knows where she’s at and excited to be there. I know she’s always in good hands with Monica.”

“Valerie was great with our two kitties! Our boy cat is typical not trusting of new people and can be hard to work with, and she was very patient with him! Our girl cat became best friends with Valerie!! She was very thorough with her duties, had great communication and I know our kitties were well taken care of!”
“Mark did a remarkable job...so remarkable that I think KodaBear misses him! He sent pictures or videos with every visit and gave him all his medications with ease. I will, without question, be asking him to take care of KodaBear again in the future. Thank you, Mark!”


“Vanessa is a true cat-lover and our cat was comfortable with her from the first time they met. She took excellent care of him while we were away on vacation, followed directions, and I would highly recommend her to other cat parents.”


“Stephanie was very kind and easy to work with! I very much appreciated her willingness to not only check in on my cats but check on my fish tanks as well. Would definitely recommend!”

About: My lifelong passion for animals began on our family’s organic dairy farm in Menomonie, Wisconsin, where I learned the dedication required to care for animals of all sizes. Over the years, we have opened our hearts and home to our friends' pets, gaining extensive hands-on experience with everything from energetic dogs to gentle bunnies. As a homeschool family, someone is almost always home to provide continuous love, attention, and structured care. We spend plenty of time outside so your pet will have lots of opportunities to exercise and spend time in the sun. Your pet will enjoy full access to our house and a large, securely fenced yard perfect for safe outdoor exploration. Located in a peaceful, dog-friendly neighborhood, we offer a warm, reliable, and attentive home-away-from-home where your pet will be treated like family.
About: I go the extra mile for the animals and the owners to make sure the pets are getting the best care possible. Respect is very important to me and showing respect to your animals and you is more than everything to me. I have taken care of (walked, home stay, drop-in) a variety of pets and will send updates and messages throughout our visits and time together. I love all animals but dogs have a special place in my heart ❤️. I am a high school student but get out at 11 everyday so I try and take advantage of that opportunity as it allows me to be flexible for your needs. I’m a very clean and organized pet owner! Their bowl of water is always filled and cleaned, I’ll clean up after your pets as needed, and the environment in which the pet is in will be tidy for you to come home to.
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages. I love going above and beyond for your pets! I will play with them, take them for walks, and do whatever best fits their needs and usual routine. I’m a teacher, so I’m currently on summer break. I’m very available and flexible with whatever your need is. I can change my routine to fit yours! I will follow all directions given to me regarding the care of your pet. I want to make them and you as comfortable and happy as possible!

“This was our first time using the Rover app, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Makayla was absolutely wonderful—super sweet and thorough when she came to meet our cat and go over all of the instructions. While we were away, she checked in every day with thoughtful notes and the cutest photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She even brought in some packages that were delivered, which was such a nice extra touch. It’s clear she genuinely cares, and we’ll definitely be booking her again. We’re already planning to have her help with dog walking, too. Highly recommend!”


“Amazing experience! Oriana is so sweet, she responded right away with my short notice request squeezed us in for a meet and greet and was very flexible. I really loved the communication and photos. A very cold day but she bundled them up and ventured and played inside with the! I will definitely be using her in the future”
“We returned from an extended weekend to find our cat mellow and looking as if he wondered where that fun guy went? Rory was a terrific cat sitter during his 'house sit', and we will definitely book him again.”
About: I've had more than 2 dogs in my home my entire life, from 8 week old puppies to seniors. I have experience giving the dogs medicine when they need it. I work part time at a retail store, so I am never working more than 9 hours at a time, I usually only work 4-5 hours normally. I make the pets my priority when I am caring for them and I watch their behaviors so I can catch anything out of the ordinary. I follow feeding directions and potty schedules.
About: Hi, I’m Johanna! Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I grew up with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including those with special diets, medical needs, and activity restrictions. Because of that, I’m confident in providing both loving companionship and attentive care tailored to each dog’s unique needs. I share my home with my dog, Hank, who absolutely loves being around other dogs. He’s gentle, friendly, and always happy to have a playmate. Whether your pup is high-energy and looking for fun or prefers a calmer, slower pace, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. My goal is to give every dog the same love and attention I would want for Hank. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or snuggles, I’ll make sure your dog feels right at home while you’re away. I currently work a hybrid work schedule so if you’d prefer me to be home while watching your dogs that can be accommodated. For the days that I do have to go into the office it is within 30 minutes and typically is only for 3-6 hours per day. Though I do not have a fenced in yard I believe in taking my dog Hank on multiple walks throughout the day to supplement this! We do have a grassy area across from our driveway that I love to throw his ball for him at so if your dog is good off leash there are ways to get exercise around. There is a dog park within 15 minutes of my home and I love taking my dog there and your dog can tag along if you’d like!
“Ella took my last minute booking request twice now and she is amazing. Jude and Canela love her. She kept me updated, she was professional and punctual. I would definitely have Ella watch my dogs again!”


“Leann was our first experience with a pet sitter from Rover. She showed up every day right on schedule, made sure they had their food, water, and medicine, They also got some play time and human companionship. Leann even got one of the best photos of one of our cats who is notoriously difficult to photograph. We'd book her again.”

“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.”

“Karen and her family are absolutely wonderful! She gives us such piece of mind with her knowledge and experience with dogs. I’m an anxious dog mom and I have never once questioned the high quality of care she provides. Wonderful as always - she is our top choice of sitter!”

About: Hi! My name is Shannon, my husband’s name is Dave, and we have an 11-year-old daughter, Harper. We absolutely love and adore animals—especially dogs. 🤍 We recently lost our beloved Morkie, Brooklynn, unexpectedly due to kidney failure in August. She meant the world to us, and we miss her dearly. While we’re not quite ready to welcome another dog of our own just yet, we would love to share our hearts and home by caring for your pet. With 13 years of having had our own Morkie, we care for every dog like our own, offering gentle care, plenty of snuggles and lots of love — so your pup feels safe and happy! We’ve cared for many family and friends’ dogs, treating each one with extra love and attention. We understand pets are family and want you to feel completely at ease. We both work full-time with flexible work-from-home options Monday through Friday if your dog needs daytime companionship. Our evenings are quiet, and we only list availability when we’re fully present—because your dog deserves our full attention. We have a fully fenced yard where your dog can safely roam, play, go to the bathroom and enjoy plenty of fresh air and exercise. We can also bring your dog on walks, if desired.

“My dog Jack just came back from Mike's. Another excellent stay. He had a pretty good time and is all tuckered out after a day of fun. I always know that Jack is in very good hands when he is at Mike's. I really appreciate being able to go out for a day and not have to worry about my dog. Very very happy!”
“We had such a great experience with Giovana! She was very responsive and kept us updated throughout the day with photos and messages. It was clear that Kit was well cared for and loved — Giovana truly treated her like part of her own family. We’re so grateful for her kindness and attention, and we’ll definitely be using her services again!”

“We are traveling and our William was desperately in need for some canine fun, and he found it @ John & Rochelle's place. He was very happy and tired everyday. I could not be happier. Will definitely keep them in mind if we come back through Hudson.”

“Our dog Aggie had a great time with Julie! When we booked, she asked if Aggie would be ok having another dog around. We said Yes and the two Cockapoos had a wonderful day together. We appreciated Julie being willing to take on a second dog since we were asking last minute.”

“Our Aussie/Border collie had a delightful time at doggy daycare every day for a week. Jessica and her husband were very communicative, prompt and sent photos. They were patient working through our dog's anxiety on the second day (when he realized this was not just a one-off play date), and he ended up happy and comfortable the rest of the week, playing all day with their resident dog and another friend. We'd recommend them as excellent dogsitters and wouldn't hesitate to use them again.”

“Caleb is amazing. He took the time to put together an activity list for our puppy, made sure he had multiple forms of mental stimulation (lick pads, puzzles), and ensured plenty of exercise. Caleb gave us a gift of our own lick pad, so very thoughtful. We will be back for more doggy day care.”

“Excellent service! Lorena was extremely warm and attentive with our puppy, who is only 11 weeks old. We felt at peace leaving our furry baby with her. She is also very knowledgeable about puppy development and gave us the requested tips. Will definitely request her services again.”

About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and abilities through volunteering and pet sitting.

I work full time but fully remote from my home office so I am available for morning, lunch, or after work walks or feeds when you are rushing to get to work or travel.

About: I have never not had a dog…or multiple!😊 I’ve grown up with Labrador Retrievers. With that being said, I can handle the chewing, the energy, the hours of stimulation, and the endless snuggles! I have raised multiple puppies into adulthood, with two currently being my own! From potty training to tricks, to walking on a leash, I have done it all! I also have had family dogs that’s we have had until 12-14 years old that have required special needs due to age. I am a nurse who once wanted to become a vet so I am super flexible from an experience standpoint!😊 I am a night shift nurse who works just a couple days a week! With that being said, my schedule is flexible and I’m almost always home! We are extremely active people who go on multiple walks a day, and I typically run a couple miles a week as well! Weather permitting, we are outside 95% of the time. My dogs are always enjoying the sun on our large deck that overlooks our woods, outside running in the woods, or playing fetch in the yard. We have 2 young and friendly labradors who love to play and meet new friends! We own 2 acres, half of it being woods with trails! This would be for the guests who have a great recall or have halo collars😊 For the ones who struggle a little more with recall, we have a 3 car garage with a doggy door to go in and out of a fenced in area (in pictures)! Also a large deck to catch some rays on, as well as plenty and plenty of walks! I want your pup(s) to feel as comfortable as possible and never want to leave😊 I am extremely flexible and want to stick to their routine as much as possible!

“Leann was great! Our pup had surgery and she was extra cautious with him. Asked questions. She truly cares and was a great help for us! Thank you! Highly recommend her and she'll be my first request in the future!!”

About: I've had more than 2 dogs in my home my entire life, from 8 week old puppies to seniors. I have experience giving the dogs medicine when they need it.

“Jennifer did a great job with our pup. We enjoyed the photos updates. She doesn’t have a fenced yard but she is not anywhere near a main road and had a nice space for him to go out. She also took him for walks often. Our dog was in good spirits when we picked him up. Would highly recommend using her!”


“Mike has watching our pup a few times. Daisy is an anxious dog but by the end of our vacation, you could tell she was super chill. It was great seeing pics of her throughout our trip. Highly recommend Mike, he’s amazing!”

“Communication was excellent from start to finish, and it was clear she was knowledgeable about kittens and pet safety. Alissa was professional, reliable, and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We would book again and highly recommend!”

“My dog had so much fun running around Paula’s yard and playing with her own pups while I was out of town for a week. She is truly a dog person and I felt confident that he was in good hands. As a bonus, I was so happy and relieved to receive updates from her and photos throughout the week so that I could see that he was having fun and doing just fine. I would definitely book with her again!”

“Mika and Andrew are wonderful! They took such good care of our pup while we were gone. We got lots of pictures and updates. They had no problems with his ear drops or medication. We are very thankful for the extra love they gave our dog.”

“Our standard poodle stayed with John and Teri earlier this year while we were gone for a long trip, and then again a second time this weekend. We know he is spoiled and loved and feels right at home both by the photos and updates John and Teri share as well as how our dog acts when we drop him off and pick him up. We are so grateful to know he is having a good time when we are gone! John and Teri are wonderful!”

“Jessica and her husband were great. My dog has separation anxiety, but she was in no hurry to leave their home. And, she's been relaxed since her stay with them. Communication was great. I will definitely use Jessica again!”

“This was our first time using Rover. Julie, Jon and kids were fantastic! Great communication. We appreciated the fenced in yard. We received photos and short texts, letting us know how our pup was doing. We picked up the same dog (temperament/trust) we left in their care, which made me so happy! Our pup came home happy & tired. We’ll definitely go back!!”

“Once again, we were so happy with the care our pups received from this fantastic team. One of our 2 pups has a fear of storms and situations that aren’t familiar. They went out of their way to take great care of them . I appreciated the pics of my nervous girl when she was calm and content with the family. Thank you very much! We will be hiring this A-Team again😊”
