“SO HAPPY we found Karen to take care of our dog while we were away! She is wonderful and took excellent care of Peanut! During our trip, we received texts with photos and nice comments. We really hope that Karen will be available next time we are away, because we will definitely be repeat customers!”
“Laronna and her Mom were great sitters! Mocha is a senior dog and wears diaper but they were able to accommodate her. Mocha was comfortable and happy. We love the pictures and videos update. We highly recommended her and will definitely use her service again. Thanks again Laronna!”
“Will return my husky to be at her care. He returned to us healthy, and playful as usual. Katie's care for pets was unequal. Fully recommend her for your pet.”
“10/10. Communication was great, my dog seems to have had a great time. Plus NaNa was very accommodating considering I booked last minute. Thanks again!”
“Great family what I like most is that they work as a team to take care of Cody. Great communication, spacious area, very kind to the dogs. I can say Leah is about her business every time I came by she had a dog there so that lets me know that she is well trusted with animals. I want to thank Mara for taken care of Cody cause he can be a handful because he wants all of the attention, and he is scared of other dogs, she sent pictures and responded to my text messages at timely manner. She told me some things that I didn’t realize about my dog while he was there. There young children are fearless with dogs so that was great to see the kids interact without being scared. I will be sending my Cody back to this family if they will welcome him again. Highly recommend this family.”
“Linda and her husband are the most amazing people I've met. They took in my elderly pup while I was out of town for about a week, and I can't imagine anyone taking better care of her (and all of her medications and quirks). We got updates every day, allowing me to fully enjoy my vacation without worrying about my pup. Sasha was treated so well, she didn't want to come home!”
“Jennifer is the best dog sitter I've ever met! She cared for my furry kids like they were her own. She sent daily updates and pictures. I could tell they were happy and comfortable. I didn't worry at all while I was gone because I knew they were in great hands. I'm so thankful I thought of rover.com and found Jennifer!”
“Misty watched our dog at her home while we were out of town. She sent updates and made us feel incredibly comfortable knowing that our dog was cared and loved! We will absolutely use Misty in the future for our dog watching needs!”
“Ebony is the best sitter in NoCo. She is so.pleasant to work with. She communicates all throughout your pets stay with her. She sends pictures of pictures and let's you know if there is any issue. My dog loves spending time with her and her pets. If.you are looking for a GREAT sitter and a worry free time away from your pet. Book with Ebony..10/10 Highly recommend! 😊”
“Excellent pet sitter! She boarded our puppy for two nights and took great care of her. Our puppy came home happy, healthy, and well-loved. Great communication and a caring environment. Highly recommend!”
“Jacob is a wonderful pet sitter. He took care of my two cats and kept me updated with pics and notes about how they were doing. One of my cats’ had trouble adjusting but he encouraged her everyday to come out of her safe place. She finally came out on the last day. So I will definitely use him again. By the way he took my cats in an emergency situation and contacted me right away. Thank you to Rover, but mostly a huge shout out and thank you to Jacob.”
“Mary was so accommodating with our nervous pup. We were traveling from out of town - she was very flexible and sent us updates and photos. I wish we lived nearby so our dog could stay with her again!”
“Thank you so much, Annie. It is obvious our pet loved staying with Annie. We appreciate the peace of mind of having our pet stay in a comfortable and loving home. We enjoyed the pictures and updates throughout our trip away from our pet as well. We recommend Annie for sure.”
“Our 17 year old dachshund spent his last visit with Lesley recently. And the only reason it was his last stay was because we just moved out of state. Henry spent a lot of time being cared for by Lesley over the last couple of years and each time was a great experience for him. We had peace of mind that he was well cared for and content and we will miss Lesley’s care a LOT!”
“Kelly was fantastic. First time ever leaving our dog with someone we didn't know. She took our baby in and treated him like part of the family. Got lots of updates and photos of him while we were away. I would 100% recommend her. I can see why she has so many repeat customers!!!!!”

“Summer was a delight to work with and our dogs loved her! She did as asked and always arrived and stayed for her drop ins as arranged. We would definitely hire Summer again for drop ins with our dogs loved:)”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong cat lover with 18 years of hands-on pet care experience. Over the years, I've provided cat sitting and boarding services for cats of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. Whether your furry family member needs a quick pop in, overnight care, or extended sitting, I am committed to providing them with the love, attention, and care they deserve. Animals have always held a special place in my heart. I believe every pet is unique and should be treated like family. My big heart, positive personality, and genuine passion for animals allow me to build trust with both pets and their owners. I take pride in creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where pets feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you're away. From energetic kitten who love adventure to senior cats who prefer a slower pace, I tailor my care to meet each pet's individual needs. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable looking after your beloved companion, and I strive to provide peace of mind through dependable, compassionate care. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members and treating them with the same love and attention I would give my own.
“Chloe was great. Took good care of my two cats - communicative, hung out with them for a bit, sent pictures, and was very punctual. Which I appreciated greatly as one of the cats needs meds 2x a day.”
“Mae was extremely communicative and definitely went above and beyond when caring for my three kitties! They fed, played with, and made sure boxes were clean for my babies. My cats looked very happy in the photos they sent, which was much appreciated. I would definitely book again!”
“Danny was perfect. He was very communicative-texted with us during/after every visit, shared lots of photos of our kitty, asked questions when he had them, fed her and stayed to give her some love too, and was flexible when I asked him to come a little later on the last day. Highly recommend!”
“I have two very social cats so I hired Taylor to swing by in the morning and evenings to spend time with them. She went above and beyond! Her pictures were amazing and I knew that my pets were in good hands while I was away.”
“We had absolutely no issues with Maddie stopping in to check on our cat, Monroe while we were out of town. She figured out the lockbox with no problems, and was always on time. She also sent pictures every time she dropped in which I really appreciated.”
“Emma was very conscientious and communicative, and she sent me lots of great photos while caring well for my fur babies with tons of play and affection. I highly recommend her services and will definitely contact her for future visits!”
“They did a super good job taking care of our 2 kitties! They were able to work with our house's security system and did a great job following directions and communicating with us.”
“I came home to a happy and healthy kitty!!!!!! Taylor was very easy to communicate with and it was so great to know my cat was being taken great care of while I was away!!!!!!”
“Caitlin is a marvelous sitter - she has cared for my kitties several times. She is familiar with their quirks and tries new things with them - toys and such. It is such a delight to see photos of them engaged with new adventures while I am far away. Thank you, Caitlin!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Normandy
“Just passing through and needed to leave Tobi somewhere safe for part of the day. Francie was great, exceeded expectations. Tobi loved playing with the other dt. This was our first Rover experience, but we'll be doing it again as we continue our travels.”
“Ashlie and Phillip were great with my pup! Excellent communication both before and during our stay. Their home is a perfect environment for any dog who loves getting lots of attention and outdoor play.”
“Keena provided amazing day care for my dog, Jasper. I could tell he how much he liked her right away. Jasper joined Keena and her family for a day full of fun activities. Keena shared so many wonderful photos. I would highly recommend her and plan to use her services again.”
“Nicole and tim sent great pictures in the video. They agreed to help out very last minute. And had an adorable house and yard for josie to hang out in.”
“Nana was a phenomenal sitter! Her dog got along so well with mine and I could tell she was getting lots of attention and playtime because she’d come home and pass out immediately. And I loved the pictures! Would absolutely book with her again.”
“TzuYu took great care of my dog! She gave very frequent updates & photos of my dog going on walks and playing with her and her dog. We already booked the next visit.”
“Angel was so great to work with! She was very communicative and she and her family took great care of our pup. She came home exhausted from a long day of play. Angel made sure to send plenty of pictures throughout the day as well! Thank you, Angel for the great care and peace of mind! ❤️”
“Pickup and droppoff was easy. From the beginning she handled Ace with care. Once we got home he laid down which is great because I asked if she could get some of his energy out and she definitely did. She also kept me updated throughout the day which I did appreciate. Will definitely be booking again.”
“We did a half day of daycare with Marie as an introduction (first meeting). Everything seemed to go great, and our pup was happy at pick up! We definitely plan to use Marie in the future.”
About: I'm a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for friends’ and family members’ pups of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’ve looked after everything from 14-week-old puppies to senior rescues. I’ve also worked with dogs who need medication, have special needs like blindness or anxiety, or just have tons of energy to burn. I approach every dog with patience, compassion, and personalized care — as if they were my own. As a full-time student with a light class schedule — just a few hours in the evenings Monday through Thursday — I’m available nearly all day, every day. This flexibility allows me to provide consistent care, timely check-ins, and plenty of attention for your pup throughout the day. When boarding dogs in my home, I provide a peaceful, dog-friendly space where your pup can relax and feel at ease. I have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and live in a quiet, walkable neighborhood that's perfect for regular walks and sniff breaks. I maintain a consistent routine, supervise playtime, and ensure your dog always has a cozy spot to rest — just like they would at home. Being welcomed into someone’s home to care for their pet is a responsibility I take seriously. I’m clean, respectful, and always follow care instructions closely. I create a calm, safe environment for each dog, keep communication open with regular updates, and do everything I can to make sure both you and your pup feel secure and supported.
“Our puppy loved Quia immediately! She is so sweet and was completely attentive to our dog’s special needs! Super flexible, super communicative, I would trust her any day, with any pet! A+++++ experience! Thank you, Quia!”
“Cooper loved his stay with Karen, as always! We decided to have Cooper go to a sitter very last minute so that we would be freed up for our moving day. Karen was very accommodating and flexible with pick up and drop off. Thanks, Karen! :)”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 6 from my personal pets to my aunts or neighbors I’ve always cared for and adored animals. Caring for pets isn’t just “checking in” to me — it’s making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and understood while you’re away. I specialize in working with cats (especially shy, anxious, or independent ones who don’t warm up to everyone), but I also provide loving, attentive care for dogs of all sizes and personalities. With my background as a licensed pharmacy technician, I bring an extra level of attention to detail when it comes to medications, routines, and noticing small changes in behavior. Whether your pet needs basic care or a little extra support, I’ve got it covered. I also keep a small pet supply inventory on hand — so if you’re busy or forget something (food, litter, treats, etc.), I can help without it turning into a stressful situation. You’ll always get consistent updates, photos, and honest communication so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I treat every pet like they’re my own — with patience, structure, and a lot of love. I am currently a stay at home mom, so your pets can get most of my undivided attention from me and my daughter who also adores animals. I do not have a fenced yard, but i have a big back and front yard definitely enough space for any pet to enjoy! I let my daughter play out there while I watch.
“Wonderful sitter - Melanie took the time to do a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure the booking was a good fit for everyone. Very attentive and kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout the day. My Obi had a great time!”
“Julie was a life saver! We were stood up by our original sitter, and she took Yuna in last minute. It felt reassuring to leave Yuna with her. Even though it was just for the afternoon, it seemed she got along with Julie's dogs and was exercised enough to have her sleep all throughout our road trip back home! Also kept us updated with pictures which was great.”
“Benjamin had a great time staying with Summer. I was scrambling to find a pet sitter when we decided at the last minute to do some sightseeing while visiting family in St. Louis. She graciously accepted him into her home without a lot of notice. Benjamin loved Summer the minute he met her, and happily went off to play with her and the other dogs. When we took him back the next day, he could not wait to leave us and go play with his friends. Summer is a real treasure, and we enjoyed ourselves knowing that Benjamin was happy and being well cared for. We hope that she will be available again on our next trip to St. Louis.”
“I’m so grateful for Laura and her family. She was incredibly flexible from start to finish, and my dog is completely worn out—in the best way! Laura gave her all the attention I couldn’t, and I couldn’t be more thankful.”

“Haley was great with my dog! She asked great questions to get to know her beforehand and was very knowledgeable about bigger dogs. I will definitely have her come back!”
“Quia is excellent in how she handled Snacks, a 95 lb Akita with a lot of energy. She took charge right away and calmed him down. A true professional. Thank you so much, you are the BEST! Andrea McCartney (MsAMac)”
“Kyani was excellent. Extremely responsive and responsible with our dogs. She was super easy to work with and even helped arrange taking our dogs to boarding at my request. I will absolutely rebook with her next time I need pet care. Very personable and obviously a dog lover.”
About: What sets me apart is my patience, flexibility, and genuine love for animals. I understand that pets, like people, need time to warm up, so I always work on their schedule — not mine. As a mom of two college students, caring for pets fills my heart and time with purpose. I’m dependable, respectful of your home, and willing to go the extra mile to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and understood. As a flexible part-time worker, I don’t mind driving or going the extra mile to make sure your home and pets are cared for like family I care for pets by following their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether in my home or yours, I provide a calm, loving environment where pets feel comfortable and secure. I take time to earn their trust, give them space when needed, and show affection when they’re ready. I handle feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions with care and attention to detail—just as I would for my own pets. My goal is to keep them happy, healthy, and stress-free while you’re away.
“Sarah went above and beyond and notified me of a leak in my kitchen when she came to walk my dog. Without her prompt attention the water would’ve continued flowing for several more hours!”
About: I love all breeds of dogs. I used to walk my neighbors doggies for fun when I was little. I've house sat for many friends with animals & plants for long periods of time. I've raised many puppies in my life time. I have two of my own that are now 2 and 5. They're everything to me. There's absolutely no better feeling than hearing the pitter patter of their feet on the floor as they're coming to attack me with love and kisses. I've never been without at least one dog in my household as long as I've been alive and I wouldn't have it any other way. I've also played sports my whole life so I love being active and playing games with the pups. I'm currently working part time so my availability is pretty open for the most part right now. I'm mainly unavailable after 4pm on Tuesdays and Fridays. I have two full sized crates at my home and a fenced in back patio with great sun for sunbathing. If I'm in your home, I'll respect your home as if it were mine & make sure the babies get soo much lot of love and attention. Picture/ video updates as often as you'd like. ❤️
“Anna was so great with walking our dog, Cleo! She came over the day before to learn about Cleo’s routines & get a layout of the house and yard. Anna walked Cleo & played fetch with her in the yard. She also sent pictures :) we will definitely be using Anna in the future for our drop-in and walking needs!”
“Meghan was absolutely wonderful with our high energy mini schnauzer Oli! They even ran together and Oli had the happiest face in her card picture. Oli also looked very well cared for when we got back home. Meghan was careful to wipe Oli’s muddy paws, refresh her water bowl, and spoil her with a couple treats. Her updates were detailed, yet concise. We loved having Meghan as Oli’s new friend and would recommend her to our family and friends. :)”
“Julianna was so wonderful! She came for a meet and greet and followed all instructions for our dogs walk. She is so sweet, respectful, and you can tell she has a love for pets! We will definitely be using her again😊 thanks Julianna!”
About: Hi! My name is Regan, and I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life. Growing up around animals has taught me how to care for pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. I have experience with daily feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Currently I work part-time in Frontenac, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pets! Please reach out to me about overnight sittings. I can provide atleast 2 walks a day and as many feedings as needed! I am completely comfortable house sitting and I have my own mode of transportation. I have grown up with cats and dogs my whole life so I completely understand both needs. I am capable of walking large dogs such as mastiff’s, German shepherds, or Rottweilers because I have owned all three!
About: I run a 5k every day and can handle large or small dogs. For boarding I have 2 acres of fenced in grass nearby where I run by husky at daily. My experience : I've had dogs in my home since I was 7 and was tasked with their walks and training. I now have a 2yo siberian Husky, Shryko, who I have off-leash trained for hikes and river adventures. So I'm very active, and my dogs have a lot of enriched exploring and exercise. All this with only treats, praise and regular patient consistency. I am a circus artist and entertainer by nights and weekends when the work is available. I spend most week days free at home honing my skill set and arranging bookings. Therefore plenty of time to head out for walks, or break and enrich a dog's day with playtime. I have a fenced in yard and large living room. 1 dog, 8 month 40lb siberian husky girl who loves company and playtime. Also have a large crate if separation is needed.
“Mallory was so awesome with Butters’ walk. She gives me updates every walk and she made sure to read Butters needs for walks during these hot days. Thank you so so much. hope to have Butters’ walks again with you soon.”

“Linda and her husband are the most amazing people I've met. They took in my elderly pup while I was out of town for about a week, and I can't imagine anyone taking better care of her (and all of her medications and quirks).

“Loved having Marie and family care for Gracie while out of town. I was sent daily pictures of the kids playing and cuddling with her which she throughly loved the attention.”
“Shannon was fantastic! She communicated well with us while she watched our boy! She sent pictures to show he was doing fine! We felt at total ease leaving our “kid” in her care… she welcomed doing a meet and greet earlier in the week ( at our request) to introduce our dog to her to before dropping him off later that week. She was very accommodating with our drop off/pickup since we were flying somewhere. Will definitely use her again and recommend to her to other pet parents!!!”
“Julia is awesome! Our dog is very shy and sensitive, and I was so worried to leave her for 2 weeks. But Julia took great care of her and sent us daily picture to comfort the nervous owner. And I saw our dog Mango was getting comfortable and relaxed every day. Also our flight got cancelled and there was a chance that we might need to pick her up at the midnight and Julia said that was totally fine. She was very responsive and easy to talk with. We really appreciate and we will definitely come back to her for the next trip.”

“Lara was amazing with my pup! I accidentally scheduled for the wrong dates and she adjusted her schedule to help me. She would send pictures daily and my pup always looked so happy! She made sure Ollie got a lot of time outdoor and was able to wear off her energy. I recommend Lara to anyone who is looking to book!! 🩷”
“Ollie had the best stay with Lindsay! She went above and beyond to make sure he felt loved during his stay. We got frequent updates complete with lots of pictures. We highly recommend Lindsay and feel lucky to have found someone who cares so much for our dog.”
“Keith and his wife were very personable. I appreciated the way they interacted with my dogs, I could tell they were well taken care of while I was out of town. Keith sent pics during their stay and was flexible with the drop off and pickup times. I highly recommend and will use them again. Zeke and Zena enjoyed their stay and couldn’t stop showing Keith and his wife love before they left. Thank you both for a job well done and making my business trip a little less stressful knowing the pups were being well cared for.”
