“Victoria was amazing with the dogs! We got pictures and comments every day to know how they were doing and she was so sweet to them. She really treats her “guests” like they’re her own dogs, one of our dogs even slept in her bed!”

“Ximena did a terrific job watching our timid toy poodle while we were on vacation! Her small dogs were friendly to mine. She clearly explained how she would keep her safe and what the daily routine is at our meet n greet, and sent pics and updates every day. As an added bonus, she lives very close! Will definitely use her again!”

“Mary is very easy to work with, and professional at the same time. I felt very comfortable with her instantly upon meeting her, and entirely pleased with our interactions. I highly recommend her, and intend to book with her again soon.”

“Brock and Rashelle provided exceptional care for my beloved fur baby. Their kindness and affection truly shone through, making my pet feel right at home. He had a wonderful time playing with their pup, and I appreciated the daily walks and outdoor playtime they ensured he had. I also loved receiving regular updates and photos, which brought me peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend their services!”

“Amanda took wonderful care of my two dogs during their overnight stay. She was attentive, reliable, and clearly very comfortable around animals. I felt at ease knowing they were in such good hands, and it was clear they were well looked after and happy when I returned. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter.”

About: I ran a prison dog rescue and training program. We rehabilitated dogs from puppy mills, rescue groups and shelters. We also did grooming services for the dogs. I'm retired. My schedule is wide open. I have time to devote to taking care of customers pets. I have always had a affinity for taking care of animals. I live in a Townhouse in a nice area with plenty of green space. I enjoy walking dogs who come to my house or walking them from their house.
“I hate to be honest here. For fear that Kate and Ken will not be available when we need them in the future. They were so attentive to Tripp. Their dogs and our dog played so much. I received pictures and videos daily showing the smile on his face. We don’t have a yard as big as theirs. Or other dogs for him to play with. So this was a real treat for him. They understand our dog’s communication style. Let him be a dog. Play like a puppy. But also balanced it with the guidance and directions he is used to. Both Ken and Kelly were exactly what we hoped for when we signed up for care. We drove 40 minutes to drop him off and pick him up. Both my husband and I believe it is worth it. Previously Tripp had been boarded at a kennel. I started using Rover in hopes that he would get more interaction with dogs and humans while we were gone. Boy! Did Ken and Kelly do that! Thank you for loving him like one of your family!”

“Mooncake is always thrilled to spend time with Stephanie, Kyle, and their wonderful dogs! Stephanie sends detailed and sweet updates throughout the day, which I really appreciate. Mooncake has a blast with them and collects snuggles all day.”

“Dani was amazing! I boarded my two cats for almost two weeks which was the first time I have ever been away from them and I was nervous. She made sure my cats felt comfortable to be in a new environment and loved. I received frequent updates with pictures of my boys and made me feel at ease for boarding my boys.”

“Macee was fantastic! She cared for our dog like he was her own, kept us updated with adorable pictures and videos throughout his day and we know he had the best time! We really appreciated her great care!”


“Erin did a great job taking care of my puppy for the weekend! When I went to drop Lottie off she brought her dog down so that they could meet on neutral territory, which was really nice and during the weekend she text me updates and pics every day. I liked that she only took one pet at a time in addition to hers, that made me feel much safer leaving my puppy there. I would definitely recommend and use her services again!”

“We were so nervous to leave Emmett for the 1st time. We knew a regular kennel wasn’t a right fit . Laura and her family took Emmett in and loved him like their own pup. We loved the frequent pictures for updates. Playing in the fenced in back yard. Sleeping at Laura’s feet while she worked and walk outsides .Laura had great communication the whole week. I will definitely be using her again. Thanks Laura for making this a great experience for us and Emmett.”

“I've had very good luck with sitters on Rover. We've never had one we didn't like, but our experience with Catlyn was above and beyond. Our dog was treated like part of the family and had a great time spending a week with Catlyn's dogs and being a part of her family. I will never feel bad about leaving our dog with a sitter if she is in Catlyn's hands. She is also great at communicating and sending updates with photos and video. Highly recommend.”

“Lisa did an amazing job! She sent photos and kept us informed about how our dog was doing throughout the stay. Our dog came home healthy and happy, as though he’d never left! Big thank you to Lisa for all the loving care you gave our little guy!”

“Our 8 month old puppy Ollie stayed with Morgan while we were out of town for 5 days. It was Ollie's first time boarding somewhere and we could not have chosen anyone better! Morgan sent us multiple photos while we were gone and asked us questions when needed. Her little dog Finn was the cutest and is super easy going and friendly. We were so glad we chose Morgan and Finn, and will definitely choose them again if we need to board Ollie in the future.”

“Haley was the perfect fit for my scaredy dog. He has trouble adjusting to new things and Haley was so gentle and brought him out of his shell. It was an amazing experience and we will definitely be going back.”

“Tanya was the best! This was my first time leaving my dog Murphy in quite some time, so just like any dog "parent", I was worried. After two days of being away on a seven-day trip, my worries were eased. Tanya communicated and wrote detailed rover cards each day and sent photos of Murphy which we really appreciated. On the days that had terrible thunderstorms, she spent extra time with him and gave Murphy lots of attention. Thank you so much!”

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was little. There was always at least one dog in my home at all times. I love dogs! Right now my schedule a little flexible for drop ins, walks and other dog needs. Boarding can also be considered. Prefer nothing after 8pm but will make exceptions. I currently take my dogs out in the yard on a leash and walks in the neighborhood. I'm open to whatever your dog may need.

“Hailea was great! She communicated regularly about my kitties and sent great photos. When I got home, they seemed well taken care of and happy. I will be booking with Hailea again!”

“Jennifer did a great job caring for our fur babies! She is very responsive and provides lots of pictures so you can see your pets while you’re away. We will definitely reach out to her again in the future!”


“I am satisfied with Janae’s work. I left my cat for a week and the cat is still alive. Lol. She sent photos and answered messages quickly enough. The house was kept clean. I will work with her again. Very respectful, kind & responsible person.”


“Konnor patiently waited through a delay the office had to let him into the building. He looked after Finn as good as any could expect and protected our dog’s needs as an anxious dog.”

“Wow! Allison stayed with my kitty Wally for three nights, and I came home to a happy and content boy - and he can be a handful! Home was also left immaculate. I appreciated the update pics off and on while I was away also. Thanks so much Allison!”
“Lucas was such a wonderful find for our sweet pair of cats! My husband and I are helicopter parents about our babies who have very specific and different needs including our boy cat who needs to be medicated and is a very picky eater. Lucas sent us very frequent updates on the state of our cat's appetite and how things were going. In the past, we have come home to find our cat has either lost weight or has liquid medication smeared on his fur from medication difficulties. When we came home our boy cat looked the best he's ever looked after such a long stay with a house sitter. We can tell our cats felt very at home and comfortable with Lucas. The house looks great, very clean and exactly how we left it. All and all, among the best rover experiences we've had! Great communication, healthy happy pets, a clean home, what more could we ask for?”

About: I have grown up with Dogs and Cats. I have also pet/house sat for friends and family through middle school, high school and college. I have grown up with cats I’ve had/have 4 (Dizzy, Yoyo, Bast and now Tiffany!) My favorite activities with kitties are playing with the string toy, brushing, giving treats and snuggling while reading/watching Tv/doing Homework. I also like to keep the blinds open so the kittens can look out and watch the birds. Lastly of course I love watching them get the zooms! :) As far as Dogs, I’ve had/have 4 German shepherds (Apache, Zoom, Camo and Ranger), 1 husky (Cherokee) and 2 Australian Shepherds (Banjo and Max) My favorite activities with dogs are throwing the ball, running/walking, brushing/baths, snuggles and getting a snack never hurt! :) I have taken pride in self training my dog to be “good K-9 citizens” ex: No jumping, “Sit”, “Down”, “Waite”, “Leave it” and being good on the leash! You just have to figure out what the dog’s favorite reward is. It could be a toy, treat or positive pets/loving!

“Boots had a great time with Angie. He was only with her for a few hours while I was at a work event. I was surprised to find out even in his short stay he was taken for a walk! I will definitely book with Angie in the future if I’m in Columbia again.”

“Fawn absolutely LOVES going to Christine's. Her dog, Daisy and Fawn are good buddies. A big plus s that Christine plays with Fawn. Fawn loves balls and Christine mixes up the variety of balls. I swear, when Fawn goes inn Christine's house and finds all the toys she has set up for the day's play, Fawn turns back and looks at me with the biggest, wide eyes and SMILE, I have ever seen on a dog. I recommend Christine if you are looking for a great care giver for your little dog.”


“Caleb accepted our last minute booking and was very accommodating. We had a really early drop off and a late pickup and they had no issue with that. Curry had a great time with their family. Would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs daycare services!”

“Haley, I thank you and your family for welcoming Molly for a safe, fun day while I was away! Haley’s home doggie daycare was a wonderful experience for my dog. Haley provides a comfortable home environment, a great backyard, lots of playtime and interaction with other dogs and members of her family. Thanks again!”


“Fawn is fairly new to Ximena and her pack. I wanted to have a back up sitter for when we wanted to board Fawn. Fawn gets very excited when we pull up to Ximena's house. She knows the dog "pack" and is excited to be there. When I pick her up at the end of the day, she is ready to have a nap, as she has had a busy day walking and playing. Ximena takes very good care of her. I recommend Ximena for caring for your small dog. She and her pack are great!”


“Great experience! Shannon and her husband are great and are obviously pet lovers! We have a nervous doggie and Shannon sent pics and updates. Will totally request them again!”

“Because of poor planning on our part, we did not have boarding arrangements last Sunday when we were going to be out of town for the day. Sam and Jesse stepped up and took care of our Dobby for us. As always, they did a great job with him. And they bailed us out of a potentially tough situation. Thanks to Sam and Jesse for all they do!”

“Jennifer and James were such a God-send when Spenser and I were getting married last week!! Our wedding venue allowed for our doggie to be present at the ceremony (she walked the aisle in a flower collar and pearl leash :)!) but not reception, and so we needed not only a dog sitter but one who would be willing to pick up our girl from the wedding venue! James was happy to do it, showed up right on time, and our Chewie happily went with! They sent us cute pics of our babygirl relaxing on their couch and playing in their backyard during the wedding reception. It really put us at ease. We've never had to turn to Rover for dog sitting, usually we have family do it (obviously not an option when the whole family and friend-crew is at the wedding), but now that we know how amazing James and Jennifer are, we are forever grateful and liable to ask for their help again! Thanks SO much!!”

“Catlyn was fantastic. My sometimes nervous dog seemed comfortable because of how Catlyn eased her into the new environment. Kallie took her time to sniff everything in the house and yard but Catlyn’s easy attitude let Kallie feel comfortable exploring. Her dogs were sweet and Catlyn takes care to be sure all the dogs are getting along or if she needs to separate them. Her yard and home are lovely and she is too. I would recommend Catlyn as a great choice.”

About: My family has had cats ever since I was 12, I also rescued a goldendoodle 8 years ago and he has been my best friend ever since. I love all types of animals, and have experience with rabbits, horses, guinea pigs, and hamsters as well. I have been pet sitting and dog walking as a vet student for over a year now. I am a veterinary student in my clinical rotation years. I live in a duplex, meaning I have my own house with no roommates. It is a 2 bedroom, 1 bath. I can pet sit from your house if you have multiple pets and are gone for days or pet sit from my own place if you have just a cat or a smaller dog. I live in a duplex at the moment by myself without any pets, but I pet sit for friends a lot, driving over to their places to let the dogs out/walk them, feed the cats/dogs/fish and clean the litter boxes, make sure the water bowls are filled, etc.
About: Evan grew up on a farm and has been around a rotating cast of animals his whole life including dogs, cats, horses, and a llama. Gabrielle still routinely provides care for her family's 12-year-old golden doodle, Millie and loves dogs of all sizes breeds and personalities. We can't wait to hang out with your pups! we love walks, playtime and cuddles. Evan is a writer who works from home, and Gabrielle is a yoga teacher who is in and out depending on the day. we are home a lot because our dog has separation anxiety! We have a small fenced in yard with gravel and lots of plants. we can go back there for pee breaks and playtime plus we are very close to humboldt park where we love to walk our dog. Our house is cozy and dog friendly. our dog Bruce loves to play and cuddle with other pups

About: I have lots of experience in a lot of different animals. For example: dogs,cats,rabbits, and horses In all age range including some with medication. Pets need lots of love and attention. Keep them fed,watered,walks, or dog park. I trained my pups to bathe without a hassle and brushed without any problems. I also trained my pups to walk off the leash, go home, sit,stay, shake, high fives, up, and roll over. Currently, I’m training my pup to be fully potty trained, to not bark, jump on people when she’s excited, and walk off the leash. I work full time and I am able to do drop in morning and in the evenings when I’m off work. It’s more of a part time job and this is something I love. Pets have free range at my place, I have a dog park, a lot of my stuff are baby proof, if the clients prefer kenneling I have a kennel as well. I prefer to give options to clients and ask questions upon their routine. I can accommodate with the routine they have.
“Donna is EXCELLENT with my dogs Charlie and Buddy. They're Maltese-Shih Tzu mixes, 7 and 3 years old, and they absolutely love her and they walks she takes them on. I've watched her with my boys and based on what I've seen, would highly recommend Donna to anyone looking for a walker with a great temperament and strong skills at dog handling.”

“Jennifer was great with Merle! She was available right away when I found out I needed a dog walker and responded within minutes. She was literally there within an hour. I really appreciate her being accommodating and taking my furbaby for a walk on such short notice. He had a great time and she sent me cute pictures of him on campus :)”
About: Ive taken care of both my own families animals for years, along with friends and families pets. I grew up with dogs of all sizes, from a teacup chihuahua to an adult husky. This also includes mostly periods of having multiple dogs. I also grew up with cats, usually in pairs. I myself have owned small birds, along with a leopard gecko. I’ve done sitting work for more relaxed animals, but also more agressive or high maintenance ones. I myself currently own a young black cat named Nordly! I currently work as High School wrestling coach, so I am flexible for the most part except for saturdays (through february) where I am gone for 6-8 hours. I will always try to accommodate to the needs of the specific pet or pets. If it’s a shy cat who just needs some food and alone time, awesome I’ll keep my distance! A needy attention seeking dog? I would love to give all my attention and energy! I’m used to a routine for dogs and cats, and daily cleanings of their areas. As long as we can communicate what your pet needs, I’ll make it happen.

About: I have grown up with Dogs and Cats my whole life. I have also pet/house sat for family and friends through middle school, high school and now college. I have/had many dogs and cats who have been/are massive parts of our family. 4 German Shepherds, Apache, Zoom, Ranger and Camo. 1 Husky Cherokee and 2 Australian Shepherds Banjo and Max. I have taken pride in self training my dogs to be good K-9 citizens. Ex: “Sit”, “Waite”, “Down”, “Leave it” and not jumping. Some of my favorite activities with dogs are walking/running, brushing/baths, playing with toys/wrestling, snuggles, driving around and a snack never hurt anyone! :) As for cats I’ve had/have 4 (Dizzy, Yoyo, Bast and now Tiffany!)

Of course I love watching them get the zooms! :) I am a full time college student with MIZZOU Army ROTC. During the summers I’m available most days/nights and weekends. As for the school year I’m pretty open as well. We will have to communicate and see what works best for everyone at that time. I was raised to hold myself to high standards and values some of these values are summed up best by the Army values, Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selflessness Service, Honor, Integrity and Personal Courage. I believe you need all of these to not only be the best version of yourself but pull the best out of others, person or paw. I care for my pets by making them an important part of my life! I love to be active and take my dog on runs/walks and play. As for my cat when I’m doing Homework or relaxing after a long day she likes to snuggle me or play with her toys. My pets are my family, team and life. I keep them safe by keeping them in active parts of my life, researching the food they eat and have a great relationship with there vet!

Previously Tripp had been boarded at a kennel. I started using Rover in hopes that he would get more interaction with dogs and humans while we were gone. Boy! Did Ken and Kelly do that! Thank you for loving him like one of your family!”

“Mooncake is always thrilled to spend time with Stephanie, Kyle, and their wonderful dogs! Stephanie sends detailed and sweet updates throughout the day, which I really appreciate. Mooncake has a blast with them and collects snuggles all day.”

“Dani was amazing! I boarded my two cats for almost two weeks which was the first time I have ever been away from them and I was nervous.

About: I have experience providing loving, reliable pet care, including feeding, walking, playing, administering basic care, and giving every pet plenty of attention, affection, and comfort. I’m currently in school, so I’m available for evening and overnight shifts that extend into the morning, allowing me to provide flexible and reliable pet care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide reliable, attentive care and a loving environment, giving pet parents complete peace of mind.

About: I have grown up around and loved pets since I was 7 years old! Many parts of my childhood I grew up with 5 dogs, but we just recently got our first cat. My partner is also an animal lover and grew up with multiple pets his entire life (his mom is a veterinarian!). We now have a 6 month old dachshund, Clover, and a cat, Stella Dallas! We are students so we have really relaxed schedules, and spend a lot of our time working from home. We live in a house that has a large privacy fence with a perfect sized backyard. We joined Rover to share our love with your animals! 🥰🐾 My partner and I are both students and I work a remote job. We spend a lot of our time not in class at home with our animals! I have a fenced in yard with a privacy fence. My dog Clover will keep your dog company as she loves to play with all of her cousins! Clover is crate trained so I have experience with that, but I don’t mind if your dog is not! I spend a lot of my time at home so your pup or cat will always be getting attention and the love they deserve while you’re away! :)
“Jessica was awesome, super communicative and an overall kind person! I loved the daily pictures and SO thankful she took my dog so last minute. Leo seemed so very happy to be there!”

“Donna was very helpful with my last minute request. She had time to invite me over so Kushito can meet her pack before the stay. She kept me updated with videos and pictures of him! She has an amazing outdoor space. He was very happy when I picked him up and I could tell he had a lot of fun during his stay!”

About: I have training experience & trained my pup myself! We play, snuggle, walk, and continue to practice training every day! I love teaching my pup new tricks, and can do the same for yours! We are very happy & energetic in our home! My sweet Buster gets along with other animals very well! He's a sweetie! I make sure to do mentally stimulating activities and challenges for Buster! They're so good for dogs! I make them fun and rewarding! I can do that for your baby too! I work full-time. And when I come home, my attention is on my pup- getting his energy out and having fun! If your request is for house sitting, I would need to bring my dog along with me. I'm home all evenings and all weekends. On the weekend, especially, I'll be available to do all the caring for your sweet babe!! The #1 thing is I don't give my dog people food. If I do, he only gets safe fruits & veggies and cheese. I don't have anything a dog could choke on or really swallow. I put Buster in a kennel when I'm gone, but I could leave your dog out if they don't do kennels. Please ask me questions if you have any!
“Haley was amazing with our pups over our weekend away. She sent picture updates often, and when we picked up our pups, we could tell they had been loved on the whole time. Haley’s own dogs were also very sweet with our girls, despite the big size difference. You can tell how much she and her husband love dogs! We will absolutely reach back out to Haley.”

“Weiling took excellent care of Lisa and Maggie. She was always very attentive to their needs and made sure they were comfortable and happy throughout their stay. She sent lots of photos and updates, which gave me great peace of mind, and she absolutely spoiled them with love and attention. Communication was open, consistent, and easy from start to finish. She was also very flexible with scheduling, which I really appreciated. I would not hesitate to leave Lisa and Maggie with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”
