“Zada is a great doggie caregiver. She is compassionate, has great communication and handling skills and provides abundant attention and care to doggie needs. We would highly recommend her and plan to employ her again.”
“Casey was great! He was great with the communication before and during the care of our three dogs! I love that he was honest about how each dog did during the visit. He didn’t tell me what I wanted to hear but the truth. Two of the three dogs did great. One dog was apprehensive and was nervous and that’s okay and Casey did what he could for him. I would definitely use his services again!!”
“Patty was really kind and patient while watching my nervous dog for a week. She sent updates and photos and after a couple days my pup was playing fetch with her in the yard. She sent us home with a bag of treats my dog really liked while staying there. Thanks Patty!”

“Nicole was awesome! Super good with communication and keeping us updated on how our pup was doing. Also Nicole was super flexible and very kind when our plans got shifted due to a flight cancellation. I highly recommend you book Nicole for all your pet sitting needs. We’re so happy that we knew our dog was in good hands and Nicole made sure we never had to worry about anything with our pup through our whole vacation.”
“My Sadie is still trying to recover from another great weekend with Mike! I love that he took her along on his weekend adventures to Park point and out for Pizza along with the daily walks that she requires. She is always so tired after spending time with Mike that she falls asleep in the car on the way home! A big shout out and thank you to Mike for being an exceptional pet care giver!”

About: With over 20 years of experience as a dog owner and lover, I provide a caring, home-based environment for dogs of all sizes. I work primarily from home, have two children, and a large, fenced yard for plenty of outdoor time and walks. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, loved, and part of the family while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your doggos! Working primarily from home with a flexible schedule allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, walks, and outdoor fun throughout the day. We currently do not have any pets of our own, which makes our home a great fit for dogs who prefer a quieter environment or do best as the only pet. I'm available most weekdays and weekends and would love to learn about your dog's unique routine, personality, and needs. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving home where your furry family member feels happy, relaxed, and cared for while you're away. I understand that pets are family, which is why I treat every dog in my care like one of my own. With plenty of experience hosting friends' dogs, I strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where your pup can relax, play, and feel at home.
“Shiloh did amazing with our golden doodle Jinx! She sent sweet update photos and jinx came back happy as ever. Her children gave our dog lots of love and her dog was very sweet and playful!”
About: I have always had a dog in my home for the past 20 years. I have been hired by many friends and families to watch and care for their pets, both cats and dogs. I also have extensive experience taking care of older dogs, as I cared for my childhood dog during the last year of her life. I also have lots of experience as an Animal Care Attendant. Taking care of all different ages, sizes, and energy levels of dogs! I am well versed in dogs with behavioral issues. Administering oral medications. As well as feeding. I am a big dog lover and have two rescue dogs myself :) I am very flexible and open during the week days. I can also be available on some weekends with notice! I typically spend my mornings taking care of my pups and getting them out on a walk. The rest of the day I am free! I am very patent when it comes to animals. I love playing, walking, and cuddling (but only when they want to). I am very observant and make sure they aren't getting into things they shouldn't. Your pets health and safety is my number one priority!
“As always, Jai had a fantastic time with Amber. She will take care of your pet like her own. You can relax and go on your vacation and even forget you have a pet (like I did 🙈)”
“Lori was my first experience with Rover and she was an absolute gem. I loved her communication during my dogs stay she sent text photos and video. I will definitely be using her again”
“Stacie did an amazing job looking after my Kadie! She sent pictures and updates every day, and Kadie came home tired and happy! Anyone looking for a good, kind pet-sitter is in the right place!”
“Courtnie was incredible with Lilly and Rubin. She is very friendly and knowledgeable with dog behavior. I felt completely relaxed and comfortable during my trip knowing she was taking care of my pups. I loved the photos and videos she sent me and I will absolutely have my pups stay with her again!”
About: While I have not been a professional dog sitter I have always been the one to offer to walk or watch my coworkers, family, and friends dogs.I absolutely love being around them, and can't wait to meet yours. In the past I have used Rover to find a sitter for my dogs when I am travelling with them. Having a safe place for them to be when I go tour around a new city is such a nice option to have. Sometimes this is a few hours other times an overnight. Hoping to be able to provide this for others. I have 3 dogs of my own, one shelter rescue and 2 foster fails. Luna, Ole, and Birdie have been great foster siblings to foster dogs I have cared for also. I have a fenced yard with enough room to play. I also have a few spare bedrooms so will have the ability to separate dogs if that is needed however I prefer to dogsit those that are dog friendly due to already having a few in the home.

“Zada did an awesome job caring for our dog while we were away for a weekend. She did drop-in visits to feed and play with our 95lb Chessie. The photo updates gave us peace of mind and proved he was having a blast while we were away! Will definitely hire again when the need arises!”
“Excellent service, Sav sent updates for Mimmie and was precise and punctual and cordial - was timely in response and flexible.. was very kind and gentle to Mimmie : will definitely use her service again. one of the best we ever had on Rover as we have used the service many times for vacation. Randy A.”
“We had an unexpected trip out of town and on short notice she came and did a meet and greet and then checked in on our cats while we were gone and made sure they got their medicines each visit. Having Talia stop in and give our cats medicines while we were gone was such a load off my anxiety. She communicated when she'd be headed over and a quick update on our cats. Highly recommend.”
“Chrissy took excellent care of our three kittens. They were wild and she played with them while cleaning up after them. She stayed in contact and sent photos of the visits which was great! I highly recommend her and will be reaching out to her for future visits.”
“Julia took wonderful care of our cat, Harvey. She was very responsive and communication was excellent throughout. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend!”
About: Have much patience as I helped raise litters of puppies from 17 on, experience with IVDD (intervertebral disk disease) paralyzed, expressing bladders, dog grooming assistant for 2 yrs, cancer/kidney failure, comfort cares, giving meds, behavior/aggression issues and more :) Currently work another part time flexible job. I don’t have a sitter for my dog so I would have to bring him along if it’s for an extended stay. He is very dog and cat friendly. I am a hard worker and learn things quickly. Pets have always been my passion to be around :) I always feed my pets before myself and they go out to use restroom the same most times. Safety is my top priority! Respect their space and property always.

I don’t have any special skills such as pet training, just really good with dogs. I am a full time nurse and I’m off every other week. I would love to take/walk dogs on my weeks off.

“Had such a GREAT experience with Sav! She knows exactly what she is doing and was SO adaptable her first time getting to know our dogs quirks. Truly, it means so much as we have a golden retriever who struggles on walks and is anxious! We will absolutely be using her again as our dog walker!”
About: Hi! My name is Mara, and I would love the opportunity to care for your pets and your home while you’re away. I have grown up with multiple dogs and have always loved being around animals. Over the years, I have also provided dog sitting and house sitting for neighbors and family members, caring for pets in their own homes, following their routines, and making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I understand that every pet has their own personality, preferences, and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I will take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also have experience providing more specialized care, including administering IV medication for an elderly animal I was watching. This experience taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, attention to detail, and following care instructions carefully. My background working in childcare, summer camps, and other safety-focused roles has helped me become dependable, organized, and attentive. I will treat your pets like they are my own and your home with the same respect I would want someone to show mine. I am happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I am currently a full-time online student, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for your pets. I am available for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, and I am happy to work with your pet’s routine to provide consistent and reliable care. I care for pets by keeping their routines consistent and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I follow all care instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and playtime, and I treat each pet and home with the same respect I would want for my own. I am happy to provide updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are well cared for.
