“Taylor has watched my dog twice this month and done an excellent job!! She is very consistent and easy to communicate with. She provides updates and lots of photos. I travel multiple times a month and will be using her every time!”
“Bandit hasnt gotten to spend time with Johanna in over a year and they picked right back up where they left off! Bandit was excited to her again when i dropped off and i was told they had some great cuddle sessions to weather the storm that passed through while he was over. Johanna is great as always.”
“I would give him 10 Stars if I could. First time using Rover. Rick was waiting for us at the road. He introduced himself and explained how the app and everything works. When we brought our dog out for introductions, he made sure she felt at ease. After some conversation, he gave our dog the tour of the area and kept us in the loop with pictures and messages. His property is perfect for animals. Honestly, kinda felt like we were leaving our dog with family.”
“I loved all the updates and photos I received! He was more than accommodating and did a wonderful job taking care of my kitten! I will definitely be using him in the future!”
“We love Brianna. I can leave town with fewer worries and knowing my pup is getting VIP treatment. She gets to sunbathe, meet new friends and take naps in the big dog beds 🥰”
“Haley was amazing! Our dog had a great time and came home calm and happy. Haley had great communication and sent so many wonderful pictures and videos. We felt very comfortable with the experience and would not hesitate to leave our baby with her again 😊”
“Emilio loved Madison’s home. He had an amazing time with her family and beautiful fur babies. He absolutely did not want to leave the next morning. I will definitely be booking again!”
About: Ive been around taking care of dogs since I was a little girl.I have 3 of my own and I will make sure to treat yours like my own. At the moment im not super busy or working a lot , so i will be home to give all my attention to your pet. I have a big fenced in backyard , i have many family members and a great home to make sure your animals are comfortable and has plenty of company.
“Sabrina took such great care of my pup! She gave him plenty of exercise and sent me pictures throughout his stay which assured me that he was in great care. He had a blast with Sabrina and her dogs! I highly recommend Sabrina if you’d like your pup to be in a safe, fun, and caring environment while you’re away! 5 stars!”
“Cheyenne was very flexible with my schedule. I was on vacation and we were going floating. On the day Cheyenne was supposed to watch my dog, the river was swollen and dangerous to float. She went above and beyond to accommodate for the situation. She was prompt on pickup and drop off, communicated effectively and overall a sweet girl”
About: My experience with animals is over 15 years. From walking/ feeding and watering/ playing fetch/ to giving medicine when needed. Your babies from young to old are given the best in my care. I'm a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to care for your babies! The town I live is small and quiet so your pup should be extra cozy here. I have a cozy shaded (with plenty of room to move about) pen where your pup will stay when I'm not supervising them in the big fenced yard or talking walks.
About: I can't remember a time in my life when I didn't have a dog. I currently have a very loving Great Pyrenees. I lost my Cocker Spaniel last summer so I have room in my heart and home to help people out when they want to travel. I understand the delimma of owning a dog and getting away so rest assured, help is here! I have a beautiful hobby farm and your dog will enjoy sniffing around with my big girl, Bonnie! I am retired and have lots of hobbies that keep me home most of the time. Your dog won't ever be left alone for more than 2-3 hours at a given time. I am new to Rover but I have often cared for friends and family pets in my home. I am in a very rural area and my yard isn't fenced. But maybe, on a busy day, one car passes my house. I wouldn't let a dog unfamiliar with me or my home run lose, but rest assured, there is no where for them to go here. Your dog will be happy and well cared for in my home.
About: Hi dog owners! I have several years of experience taking care of dogs. I have two back home that I love and miss dearly. I know they require our special care and attention and I hope I can help be of service to you and your fur babies when needed. I work full time Monday-Friday but I’m home every night. I’m usually around on weekends for any pet sitting needs. Please reach out for any potential bookings or questions you may have. I currently live in a pet-free environment, no smoking, etc. I do have a few littles every other weekend so getting along with kiddos is a must on those weekends.

“Cheyenne was absolutely amazing! She took great care of my boy and was great at communicating with me! When we had to cut our trip short she even gave us a refund for the visits we didn't need her to do. Definitely recommend her for all your pet sitting needs!!! Thanks so much Cheyenne!!!!!!”
“Taylor provided exceptional pet care from start to finish. She treated my pets with warmth and patience, and it meant so much that she was able to get my senior dog to play , something she rarely does with new people. Taylor followed all instructions flawlessly, communicated consistently, arrived on time, and kept me updated with plenty of photos and notes about their routines. I’m very grateful she accepted the request and would confidently book her again.”
About: I love animals of all sizes, I am a certified dog groomer and have had past experience working in a vet care facility taking care of animals for 5 years. I am familiar with all ages from puppy's to elders and special needs cats and dogs are welcomed. I am also able to give your pet medications if they have any. No dog would go unloved and would be given all the attention he/she could want. Animal care is my top priority and your loved ones will always be safe with me. I have experience with every breed and any temperament. I'm trying to make pet care my full time job, so I have an open schedule 7 days a week to accommodate your pets needs. Care would take place in the client's home, lots of play time and following owners instructions for what they would like if they have any.
“Melody is so awesome! She came over right on schedule every day and sent pictures and videos of my kitties so I knew they were taken care of. She stayed and played with them for a while too which I loved because they are very social cats. She went above and beyond what I could have expected for my first time using the Rover app. We will definitely be booking her again!”
About: I have always had pets in my home and have often been called upon to take care of friends’ pets including dogs, cats, chickens, goats and ferrets I have a pretty flexible schedule and am able to do pop ins and walks throughout the week. We also have a fenced in yard to host small dogs. We have 2 little dogs that are primarily inside and a retired farm dog living their best lives. Everyone gets love and attention daily. We also have chickens and 2 cats that are all spoiled
“Elizabeth has been SO incredible with my dog and is so easy to work with. I travel frequently for business and knowing that she is taking care of my baby while I am gone is so comforting. She sends me updates while I am gone and works with my schedule in order to make sure that my pup is well cared for. I would highly suggest her! ”
About: Hello! My name is Melissa, and thanks for checking out my profile. Im new to Rover, but not animals care. I had a steady client, house sitting two dogs, but that is now too far away. That job was in-house care with my dog and all that included all that comes with it, feeding, playing and much more. Please let me know if I can be the one to help you! I've been an optician for 7yrs and am studying to get special certification. I do work part time as an optician locally. The job is only few days a week from 9-4. With enough notice I can make changes in regards to scheduling. Besides that I love going to the river with my dog or am just as happy sitting on the couch. I like a good schedule: something for me to follow, to know exactly what you expect and need. My dog and I walk in the mornings and after work or let out back on a lead, depending on weather. I am always outside with her. I take care of my cat litter everyday or every other. Swiffer everyday! I don't know how the litter travels everywhere!! Drives me nuts!
About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for cats—along with a wide range of other animals, including exotics—I understand that cats aren’t just pets, they’re family with very specific personalities and needs. From shy, independent kitties to high-energy or special-needs cats, I’m attentive to their routines, boundaries, and comfort. Whether it’s feeding, litter care, playtime, or just quiet companionship, I make sure your cat feels safe, respected, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Katie did great with my kitties. They’re usually scared of strangers and slow to warm up to people but they seemed to take a quick liking to her! She was timely with their visits every day and always let me know how they were doing. I genuinely looked forward to the pictures she sent me of them every day, it helped me miss them a little less. :)”
“Kiera took amazing care of our two cats while we were away over Christmas! She was so responsive and kind, and really went above and beyond to make sure our kitties had everything they needed.”
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, ferrets, birds, horses, and farm animals for as long as I can remember! I love animals and I will love and care for your pets like they were my own! I'm newly married as of June 24th. I'll be a stay at home mom with my son until I find something part time, just trying to bring in some sort of income so that I can make sure our finances aren't too strained I will always watch out for your pets while they are under my care, I will make sure that they are in a clean and safe environment, and I will always make sure they have plenty of food and fresh water.
About: I have had pets my entire life, primarily cats as well as a few dogs. I currently have a dog and cat, so taking care of either is second nature. I have also had two cats at one time and understand the nature of multi-cat households. I have pet sat many times for friends and family. These include homes with multiple dogs, multiple cats, a mix, and even a snake. Reptiles and rodents don't bother me! These experiences have also included long-term stay (1 week+) and animals with additional care needs (senior, diabetic with necessary insulin injections at meals). I am currently in vet tech school so I know what to look for to keep your pets safe! I also have experience volunteering in shelters with many animals of different temperaments.
“Courtney did a great job with my JRT, Oakley. She sent photos of her visits the first few days and Oakley looked like she was having a great time! Courtney noted that Oakley wasn't eating dinner and asked if I had any suggestions. I gave her my recipe for frozen tilapia in the microwave and Oakley ate it up! Courtney gave it to her every night afterwards--Oakley pulled one over her head! I usually make it a treat. I guess we both had great vacations! I also saw on the weather that thunder storms were happening in NWA. I told Courtney where Oakley's thunder shirt was and how to put it on...I was grateful for that.”

“Johanna watched my dog for the whole day and sent several picture updates, which I appreciated. She was easy to communicate with and very accommodating. Thank you Johanna for taking good care of my sweet girl!”
About: Whether it’s taking care of my own animals, or others, I am passionate about them receiving the best care. I have a gentle heart when it comes to animals but also love playing fetch and other games. I grew up with a family dog I was responsible for caring for, along with many other animals. Growing up on a farm helped develop a love for animals and their well-being. I may not be a professional dog trainer, or even sitter, but I can assure you while your family member stays with me they will feel loved and happy for the entirety of their stay. Whatever your pet needs, I will try my best to provide it for them. *I am willing to drive to St. Robert or FLW area to meet to pick up pets for boarding. I am a stay at home mom so I will have more than enough time to dedicate to taking care of your animals! Any pet would be welcomed right into our family. I have a fenced in back yard where the dog will be able to roam freely to potty. I live in a quiet neighborhood great for walks!

“Brianna (dog sitting , boarding, etc.) is a hidden gem to say the least. My fiancé and I looked around for a person / business that could take care of our beloved dog. Our dog Is still young and requires someone who is attentive, understanding , and simply cares. Briana fits the bill and more . We will certainly be sending Maya to Briana again in the future. .”
About: I’ve been an animal lover all of my life but specifically dogs. I feel they are true angels and as much as I’d love to own 10 of them, I can’t so this is the next best thing! I’m currently a stay-at-home mother of two children and we have our puppy, Nala. I have all the free time to take care of pets and make sure they’re constantly comfortable, loved, and checked on. I do have one extra large dog kennel. If you want to bring your own kennel, that is also totally fine! I have extra dog bowls as well, but again if you want to bring your own, totally fine! I have a safe, fenced in yard. I like to do outside time as much as possible so the dogs can get their energy out and if you have a food schedule, I can follow it!
“Our pup Korea had an awesome day. Madison showed her how a pup should be treated while away from home. Starbucks like a boss and a paw clean after coming in from outside. Madison sent pictures throughout the day and reassured me that my girl was in great hands. Loved her service.”
“Brittany did so good with my dog! Wished I had found her sooner. She knows dogs very well and will make sure your dog is comfortable and well cared for, whatever that may look like with their quirks and characteristics!”
“Carolina is great! She is so kind and caring, and I always feel at ease knowing my dog is in good hands. She keeps me updated throughout the day with messages and pictures, which really helps me stay connected even when I'm away. My dog loves spending time with her, and I can see how much attention and love she gives.”
About: Hi! My name is Liz and I originally hail from Boston, MA, but recently moved to Fort Leonard Wood with my husband after 6 years in North Carolina! I have been working with animals for over 15+years. I grew up riding horses and worked as a veterinary technician for small and large animals for over 3 years. I have been working as an RN in acute care for the last 6 years, but have decided to take a break from nursing for the time being. I fill up my free time hiking, trail running, weightlifting, fishing, and camping. Life happens, I totally get it, so my cancellation policy is flexible. Please reach out for more information or any questions/concerns. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I currently am taking time off from nursing so have full availability. I am expecting my first child in May 2024, but will be active and dog walking/sitting (god willing) up until my due date! I am an early riser and can really work with you to accommodate any schedule you and your pet need. I would love to know your dogs typical routine and needs. I have a 12 year old Great Dane/pit mix named Ivan who is my best friend. He just needs a good introduction, but is glad to having 4 legged visitors and sharing our home :)
About: I grew up in a family where animals weren’t just pets—they were part of our daily life and the heartbeat of our home. Over the years, we cared for everything from cats and dogs to horses, cattle, and chickens. There has never been a moment in my life without at least one dog or cat by my side. That lifelong connection turned into a genuine passion for animal care. Because of that, I’m working toward opening my own boarding facility—one that will not only care for family pets, but will also take in strays and rescues who need a safe place to land. Using this app is my first step in that journey. I’m here to: build meaningful relationships with pets and their owners gain hands-on experience with a variety of animals and personalities earn supplemental income to invest directly into the boarding and rescue facility establish a future client base built on trust, reliability, and genuine care Your pets will be treated like they’re part of my family—because caring for animals is something I’ve done my entire life, and something I take pride in doing well. Pet care is a major part of my everyday life. I recently left my full-time job so I could dedicate myself fully to working with animals and building my future boarding and rescue facility. That means I’m able to structure my days entirely around pet care — not squeeze it in between shifts or treat it like a side task. Every week, my schedule is centered on drop-ins, walks, feedings, playtime, and enrichment. I set aside dedicated time each day specifically for pet visits, check-ins, updates, and keeping each pet’s routine consistent. Because this is my full focus now, I’m able to be flexible, reliable, and fully present with every animal I care for. Whether it’s a single visit or multiple pets throughout the week, your pet becomes part of my daily rhythm — and they’ll always get calm, attentive, and consistent care. How I Care for Pets in My Home and in Clients’ Homes My goal is always to keep pets safe, comfortable, and on the same routine they’re used to. Whether I’m caring for your pets in your home or mine, I make sure they get calm, consistent attention and all the essentials they need. In Your Home: When I’m caring for pets in their own environment, I follow your instructions exactly so their routine stays steady. Here’s what you can expect: • Fresh food and water on your preferred schedule • Clean litter boxes or outdoor potty breaks • Daily enrichment, playtime, and companionship • Respect for your home, your space, and your pet’s boundaries • Clear communication and photo updates every visit • Extra patience for shy, anxious, or rescue pets • Medication or special care needs handled as instructed I make sure everything stays clean, calm, and familiar — which helps pets feel secure while you’re away. In My Home (if applicable): In my home, pets get a safe, supervised environment with plenty of love and structure. They receive: • A quiet, calm space to relax • Regular feeding times and fresh water • Enrichment toys, cozy bedding, and comfortable hangout spots • Supervised play and attention based on their personality • Respect for crate routines or safe spaces if they prefer them I keep their environment low-stress and easy to settle into. Overall Care Approach: No matter where your pet is staying, I treat them like one of my own — with patience, consistency, and the kind of care that prioritizes their comfort and happiness. I tailor my approach to each pet’s personality, energy level, and needs so they feel understood and well cared for.
About: Hi, I’m Sadie! We are a military family that has a five year old and two dogs! Kobe is a standard poodle and Honey who is a golden doodle! I know that with having dogs it can be hard to find care so you & your family can take leave to go see family! So I’m hoping I can give families that opportunity. Can’t wait to hear from some of you guys and get to love on your furry babies! Have a blessed day!! I currently work from home Monday-Friday and available weekdays all day! Could offer 3-5 potty breaks a day along with evening playtime along with walks! I have 2 fur babies that are very friendly and always up for play dates! Don’t have fenced in yard but have open backyard area. I also have 2 xl crates if needed.
About: As an avid animal lover with six years of experience working with dogs—including those who are sick, injured, scared, or have been abused—I can accommodate any special requests to ensure your dog's comfort and happiness. My home is a safe, smoke, drug, and alcohol-free environment where your dog will feel loved and secure. Big or small, every dog is welcome! I aim to make your dog excited for every visit. Consider me to be your dog's home away from home! Early Morning (6-8 AM): I start the day with potty breaks and individual or group walks based on compatibility and needs. Provide fresh water and food according to each dog’s specific dietary plan. Late Morning (10 AM-12 PM): Engage in playtime, which could include fetch, puzzle toys, or simply supervised free play in a secure area followed by supervised outside time. Afternoon (2-4 PM): Quiet time for rest or individual attention like grooming, brushing, or cuddles. This helps reduce anxiety and provides a calm environment. Evening (6-8 PM): Dinner service, followed by a final walk to allow for potty breaks before bedtime. * Night (9-10 PM): Final check to ensure all dogs are comfortable, have access to water, and are securely settled for the night. Address any late-night needs like anxiety or discomfort. My top priority is creating a safe, fun, and comfortable environment for every dog in my care. Each day includes structured playtime, regular walks, and plenty of opportunities for socialization, tailored to their individual energy levels and personalities. I provide nutritious meals, fresh water, and cozy resting spots to ensure their physical needs are met. Most importantly, I offer constant attention, affection, and a watchful eye to make sure each dog feels secure, loved, and right at home during their stay.
About: I have had pets my entire life and leaving them for longer than I'm used to is so hard. I've been with dogs that are hours old and I've been with dogs in their final moments. I do work 8.5 hour shifts 3-4 days a week. So while I couldnt care for them while I am at work before/after and and on my days off I am more than available. I require a meet and greet for new clients just so I know where all of thier stuff is and so the pets meet me with thier owners for the first time and it is less stressful. I can crate animals take them for walks, take them out in the backyard. Anything to burn energy before being left home alone again.
About: I’ve owned and taken care of pets for years! I would love to take the weight off of your shoulders and help you with you pets! I am currently at home full time so I have all the time to take care of your furry friends! Sunday through Saturday I’ve got you covered! I have a fenced in yard and a walking trail very close by to take everyone on walks or runs and 2 furry friends of my own to keep company and play!
About: I’ve been around pets my whole life. I currently have one rescued border collie mix named Spock. My husband and I have a big backyard and both love animals. I look forward to meeting you and your pet:) I am a college student so just let me know what works for you and your pet and I’m sure I’ll be able to work my life around it:) I’ll treat your pet just like I treat my own. Spock gets along great with other animals but I would love the chance for them to meet before an animal just being dropped off at my house. Spock is allergic to chicken and has high anxiety so I know how important it is to give animals the proper care they need.
About: My experience with animals is over 15 years. From walking/ feeding and watering/ playing fetch/ to giving medicine when needed. Your babies from young to old are given the best in my care. I'm a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to care for your babies! The town I live is small and quiet so your pup should be extra cozy here. I have a cozy shaded (with plenty of room to move about) pen where your pup will stay when I'm not supervising them in the big fenced yard or talking walks.
About: I've taken care of all ages of dogs. I have provided training and care for dogs of all ages. Bathing, walking, training, general care. I have also worked professionally training and caring for dogs for the government. I am currently working part time. I am available anytime all week as long as there is notice. I go to the gym Monday to Friday but only for an hour or two a day. I live on a farm in the country. With two friendly dogs at home. For boarding I can either allow my dogs around yours or not, your preference.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Dixon
About: I have 6 years training experience with dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds. I would be sure to give love and attention to your pups and make walks and drop in visits enjoyable for your furry friends. I am all about tired dogs = happy dogs, so I would be sure to tire them out and do some brainwork with them while in my care. During walks, I would be sure to work on leash manners and help them to learn to look to the owners for guidance. Drop in visits will be less stressful for the pup and owners knowing they are getting the care they need on those long weekends, long work days, etc. I hope to be your new go to pet sitter! Please inquire if you need drop ins outside of these days! Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns regarding scheduling with me! Look forward to hearing from you. I care for your pets like I do my own. I want them to be happy and relaxed while in my care. Keeping them in their routine as much as possible is what I strive for!

We also have a fenced in yard to host small dogs. We have 2 little dogs that are primarily inside and a retired farm dog living their best lives. Everyone gets love and attention daily.

About: I have had dogs since I was a small child and have loved them ever since, all dogs deserve to be loved and I love all dogs! I do not currently work a job and am looking at a way to find some way to find money and being able to be around dogs is the best way to do so! I have a fenced yard, 4 dogs who absolutely love being able to make new friends with other dogs, I also love to do some small training if needed treats as rewards!
About: I have experience raising five dogs from puppyhood from 8 weeks old. I work well engaging dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I am currently a mom of four large bunting breeds. I am great with handling dogs with anxiety as well as those that have social and/or separation issues. I am able to run your dogs is preferred over a long walk. I have a flexible schedule and can adjust to your needs accordingly. If a client has any special requests, I am generally always able to accommodate. I have a fenced yard with sufficient land for play (about a 1/4 acre). The inside of the house has plenty of room as well the the basement is a designated pet play area.
About: I have had experience training and working with all breeds of dogs for my entire life. I know basic vet training; obedience training and much more I currently have a full time job but because of my work hours I have plenty of spare time where I am always looking to do more hobbies I care for pets in my home by dusky walking proper feeding times and playing with them they are always my full focus and my top priority
About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds— including dogs, cats, and even exotic animals— I bring both knowledge and genuine compassion to every job. I understand that pets are family, not just animals, and I treat them with the same attentiveness, patience, and respect I’d want for my own. Whether it’s daily care, special routines, or unique needs, I’m committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m chronically self-employed because I love the flexibility it offers. I’m used to taking on a variety of jobs and adjusting to my client’s needs week to week. I will never take a job I can’t fully commit to, so you can rest assured I will give your pets my full attention when they’re on my schedule. Every pet has their quirks so it’s important to have fully transparent communication with my clients. I will always encourage a meeting with the clients and pets prior to the job starting, as I believe it’s best to get familiar with the pets and their home. I often request to visit at the time I’d normally visit while the client is away, because I want to see the walking/feeding/crating routine in its fullness. I ask a lot of questions and take notes to make sure we’re on the same page. I also request the clients to leave me their contact info, vet’s info, and an emergency contact’s info to make sure I can be prepared for any emergencies that may arise. I encourage clients to ask any questions they have, even if it seems silly. Likewise, if I have any questions, I will ask them instead of guessing. I often send pictures and updates throughout the stay. I stay off my phone as much as possible to be alert and cautious. I take care of your pets the way I’d want someone to take care of mine.

“Taylor has watched my dog twice this month and done an excellent job!! She is very consistent and easy to communicate with. She provides updates and lots of photos. I travel multiple times a month and will be using her every time!”
“I would give him 10 Stars if I could. First time using Rover. Rick was waiting for us at the road. He introduced himself and explained how the app and everything works. When we brought our dog out for introductions, he made sure she felt at ease. After some conversation, he gave our dog the tour of the area and kept us in the loop with pictures and messages. His property is perfect for animals. Honestly, kinda felt like we were leaving our dog with family.”
“I loved all the updates and photos I received! He was more than accommodating and did a wonderful job taking care of my kitten! I will definitely be using him in the future!”
“Emilio loved Madison’s home. He had an amazing time with her family and beautiful fur babies. He absolutely did not want to leave the next morning. I will definitely be booking again!”
“Sabrina took such great care of my pup! She gave him plenty of exercise and sent me pictures throughout his stay which assured me that he was in great care. He had a blast with Sabrina and her dogs! I highly recommend Sabrina if you’d like your pup to be in a safe, fun, and caring environment while you’re away! 5 stars!”
“Cheyenne was very flexible with my schedule. I was on vacation and we were going floating. On the day Cheyenne was supposed to watch my dog, the river was swollen and dangerous to float. She went above and beyond to accommodate for the situation. She was prompt on pickup and drop off, communicated effectively and overall a sweet girl”
