“Our two little dogs spent over 2 weeks with Misty and her family. Misty updated us and sent photos daily, and the dogs had a great time. One is older with Cushing's disease, needing special care and meds, and Misty was great in taking good care of her. Our little dogs were happy, looking out the windows, playing in the yard, going for walks, and being loved. It was a great experience and we plan to use Misty again on future trips.”
“Eric and Morgan were super responsive and friendly. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a pet sitter! They also accepted my booking request right after I made it even though it was short-notice”
“Paula does a wonderful job with my boy Chubbs..I’ve used her several times. And I no longer have any worries or concerns when I drop him off with her. I know he is in good hands with her. She typically has other dogs she is watching so he has playmates that keep him busy and active. He sleeps hard for days after I pick him up, so I know he was having a good time.”
“Nicole and Tim were great sitters! They were flexible, very quick to respond, and their home was very clean. They took great care of Quinn and I know she had a great time with them.”
“Stephanie was wonderful and she took great care of our sweet pup while we were gone. She communicated with us daily, sent multiple pictures, and was always very prompt to respond to all questions. Upon our return after 9 days, it was clear that our dog was loved and well cared for - he was happy and he even came home with some goodies. We will absolutely have him stay with her again and I would recommend her for sure!”
“This was our first experience with the Rover.com app. I was a little nervous leaving my baby for 10 days, I have to admit. But Blake was awesome with our dog and me. He has 2 sweet dogs and they all got along great. He sent me pics and communicated with me daily. They have a lot of indoor and outdoor space. I will def use him again. Our pup can be finicky but she did great. All Good!!!”
“Samantha and her family were fantastic with Fannie, she was very responsive to a last minute request and kept us in the loop on how the weekend was going with our sweet girl. Fannie had a great time :)”

“Judith was absolutely incredible. I received so many wonderful updates and pictures and never once had to ask for them because she always thought to send them. Also when my travel plans changed due to weather she was so incredibly accommodating. I cannot recommend her enough and will definitely be using her for all of our future trips.”
“Ali is so sweet and knowledgeable of all dog breeds. My two boys loved her and her pets. Duncan and Jaxx came home happy and exhausted, what more could you want? I will definitely be using her any time I need a sitter. Thanks Ali!”
“Jennifer is so wonderful! She eased our minds by caring for our senior dog who has a couple peculiarities with his required care. Cosmo came home more relaxed and rested than any other time he has been away from us. We will hire Jennifer again very soon!”
“Was heading out of town for a week, and got in touch with Ruthie to watch our pup Riley. She was able to accommodate a short notice request. She was wonderful in the meet/greet, really taking the time to gain Riley’s trust. He had a fantastic time with her and her pup Ginger, with photo/video updates sent throughout. Would definitely recommend!”

“Brooke is a stellar pet sitter! She was very attentive to my cats behavior and provided a descriptive summary of her visit. She made me feel confident my pet received the best care possible while I was away.”
“Heather did such a good job taking care of our precious kitties while we were gone! Both of our shy kitties came out to see her, which is truly rare. Her pictures and comments about what happened during the visits really helped us know how they were doing and put smiles on our faces during a difficult time in our lives. ?”
About: I’ve taken care of pets for family and friends most of my life, but especially in the last 6 years. I’ve become the go-to person to care for friends’ pets and feel comfortable following detailed care instructions. My aim is to provide peace of mind while you are away from your beloved pet(s). My seasonal job allows me to spend all day with my pets and I believe a tired dog is a happy dog. That means long walks, lots of playtime, and reinforcement of their training. For cats, a routine is key and I love getting to see their personalities come out as I gain their trust. I live in a pet friendly apartment complex. I enjoy taking my dog for long walks in the neighborhood and bringing him to nearby parks for a change of scenery.
“Samantha and Christopher were awesome! They took such good care of our 2 cats and sent us tons of pictures with a blurb for each visit telling us how they were doing. I would absolutely use them again!”
“Our normal sitter had a family emergency right before the holidays, and we are so thankful we found Kate in time for our kitties! Two of them need daily medications, and we have had hit or miss luck with different sitters (not from Rover) in the past, but all the cats loved her (even the one that normally hides!) and they all seem to be very relaxed and not panicked when we got home this time! We will absolutely be using her in the future and recommending her to friends in the area!”
“Danny and Jennifer have taken care of our cat many times when we go on trips, and they are always wonderful. I love all the pictures and the detailed notes they send after each visit.”
About: I love and treat my dogs like family, and will do the same for yours! Growing up, I had experience with all types of dogs in my household! From hyper, playful and energetic, to calm, quiet, and shy, there was no shortage of variety as to the type of dog my family adopted, and was definitely no shortage of unconditional love I gave them! My experience with dog walking and sitting goes back to high school. I was always that family friend you'd call to care for your pets while you were on vacation! Whether it's 1 dog or 3 dogs at a time, no pup is ever left out, and I always balance my attention to each dog and their needs, ensuring their safety and well-being at all times. There is no shortage of love and attention from me when it comes to your dogs! Having 2 large dogs of my own, I understand the need for finding someone you can wholeheartedly trust to care for your fur baby (or babies). I am comfortable around dogs of all shapes and sizes! Both of my dogs have anxious tendencies, and one in particular can be very reactive, nervous, and sometimes aggressive, but through trust, patience, and love, I have been able to develop a loving and nurturing bond with them both, and have no doubt I can do the same with yours! I hope to meet your dog(s) soon! 🫶🏼🐶🐕 I can provide daily care for your dog(s) or cat(s) - whatever their needs may be! My schedule is very flexible and can easily be worked out to whatever your needs may be! I trust and understand the importance of keeping people’s homes their safe spaces for their pet(s)! I will follow any and all guidelines or expectations you have for your home whenever I am there to care for your furry friends! I always treat other’s homes like my own - with love and respect!
“Lauren was wonderful! She took great care of our cat while we were away and sent updates that really helped us relax knowing everything was going well at home. She was reliable, kind, and clearly loves animals. Our cat was comfortable and well cared for, which means a lot to us. We’re very grateful for her help and would happily book with her again. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“This was my first time using Rover and I’m so happy I chose Corrine to help with my fur buddies. She is super bubbly and outgoing. She communicated with me every time she stopped over to let them out and sent photos so I could see them in the yard. She asked great questions and covered everything they needed. I highly recommended her to help with your fur buddies. She took excellent care of mine. I will being using her again!”
About: I love cats so much I shortened my name to Cat. Kidding.. but I do really love cats. I have two kitties of my own and have a lot of experience with fostering mama cats with kittens. Used to dealing with “spicy” kitties and I’m not afraid of getting a scratch or two.
“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.”
“Kelly did a great job! It was our first time hiring a pet sitter but we had to because there weren't any boarding spots left for our two cats. I was worried about being gone for a week but Kelly was very reassuring and capable. She came by every other day to check on them and play with them. Both cats were friendly and liked her, which made me feel even more at peace. The first visit, one of my cats brought her a dead mouse, which has never happened before! Kelly was great and cleaned it up after letting me know about it. Our return was delayed due to the Southwest flights meltdown and we had to drive home. Kelly made sure to check on their food and water levels, which made me feel more at ease, as we embarked on our 29 hour drive! I recommend Kelly and would rebook with her again.”
“Anne was really sweet and caring with Miss kitty. She has very friendly personality and You can tell she loves animals I totally feel comfortable with her caring for Miss kitty.”
“Kristen was amazing! She did a great job interacting with my cats and getting them fed (which can be difficult). Kristen is very kind and made sure she followed all instructions left for her. I highly recommend her if you need a pet sitter. Not only did she keep us updated on how the cats were while we were away, but she sent us pictures of each one at every drop in visit she made.”

“Nicole and Tim were so welcoming and so kind. It was Benny’s first time spending time away besides groomers and he had so much fun! The updates throughout the day really made us be at ease. We are so happy with his stay and will come back to Tim and Nicole when we are in town. 😊”

“This was Cooper’s first time with Lucy and although he was nervous at first that was very short lived! I really appreciated the way Lucy worked to make him feel comfortable before I left. I could tell he was thoroughly enjoying himself in the videos she sent and when we made it back home he barely made it through the door before passing out! Would highly recommend :)”
“Sarah was amazing with my baby Soup! She is super friendly and very responsive. She took care of Soup like her own and sent lots of pictures and updates, which I really appreciated. I felt completely at ease the whole time. Highly recommend her! 😊”
About: So I just love dogs. I have had dogs my whole life and will never not have one. I work from home and am very physically active so my lifestyle works well with dogs as I am around to simply hang out with the dogs or go on long walks if needed! Luckily I work from home as an attorney and am able to provide many walks and attention throughout the day. I also live in an area with a lake and multiple dog parks. I am extremely attentive with any dogs that I take care of. I will provide sitting with care and attention and make sure your dog is safe and taken care of.

“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.”
“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.”
“Alvin goes to Beth’s 4-5 days a week. It’s been a few rough weeks for Alvin. He had surgery 10/1 and had a cone/collar for 12 days. She was great with keeping him from scratching but still be playful. He learned how to scoop the ball with the cone! We absolutely love the care he receives with Beth and her family!”
“Ursula was fantastic. She communicated very well with us during Marley's stay at her home. We really appreciated her care for our little dog when we were in Tucson for a brief stay.”
About: I help with pets often. Neighbors trust me to walk, play, and care for their animals. I enjoy playing outside and cuddling with animals. I can’t wait to meet new animals. I work from home 2 days a week and I work in the office short 5 hour days during the week with no evenings or weekends. I have a private, fenced, level yard. I have a no outlet neighborhood for nice safe walks. I enjoy playing the back yard, going for walks and snuggles too.

About: Hello! I have had many dogs and cats over the years and love them so much! I am looking forward to meeting and playing with your pup :) I am currently in graduate school for speech pathology at Mizzou. I go on runs/walks daily and am up early! A pup fits seamlessly into my schedule! I love going on walks, playing fetch, and anything else that the fur friend may want to do! We have a fenced in backyard that backs up to a park which makes for the perfect play area!
“Annamaria has been great! Charlie seems to really like her, and she’s been able to get him out of the house every visit so far - he can sometimes be a bit stubborn and refuse to get up lol. I’m very happy with the service so far, and definitely plan to continue having her work with Charlie.”
“This was my first experience using Rover and Michael has really set the bar! He was timely and courteous each day with pick up & communications. My doggie really took to him and was amped to go on walks and excited when returning. I appreciated the report cards and pictures and would absolutely book again.”
About: My husband and I grew up with all kinds of dogs and before having our own dog, and I cared for family and friends pets while they were out of town or needed help. I work night shift 3x/week and my husband works full time but is home every evening so your pet will always receive lots of love and attention. We have a fully fenced in yard for your dog to enjoy. Our home has plenty of space if you prefer your pet to be crated at night.
“Meghan, I’m so grateful for you. You came into my home with such calm care, followed every instruction, and treated my fur family with genuine love. You took Arrow for a real walk, made sure everything was secure, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Knowing my home was safe and my dog and cat were so well cared for meant everything to me. I’m looking forward to having you back very soon.”
“Alycia is so caring and attentive toward my dog. She’s also flexible. When the weather turned too cold for a walk, she pivoted and spent time tiring my pup out with toys in the house to make sure he got to get energy out. We feel so great knowing that we have her checking in on our dog while we are at work!”
“Kyani treated my dog as if she were her own fur baby! My pet was VERY well cared for, and I got detailed updates and pictures for each visit. Definitely planning to book with Kyani again if she’s available!”
