“Karen was awesome! I’m so happy I found a dog sitter I can trust. She’s not only good with dogs, but has a dog friendly environment that made my dog feel right at home. She also sent plenty of pics and kept me updated. Can’t wait to take a trip again and have a peace of mind knowing my dog is in good hands.”
“Lorri was great taking care of our senior dog while we were out on a short vacation. She is very caring and would like to Know all about your pet’s routine so that she can help best. She is a warm gentle person and I am sure your pets will love her.”

“Took good care of our senior dog who requires meds and eye drops. Sent daily photos and had quick response time. Very happy with our Rover Experience with Misty and her fam!”
“Lindsey was awesome with Cane. She and her pups greeted us at the door, which made it easier for my pup to feel happy about me leaving. She let him be comfortable and he definitely made himself comfortable! She was sweet, and kept great communication! And very flexible with me. We'll definitely reach out to her again”
“My dog can be a handful sometimes and Laura was able to tame him. It’s clear that she’s a huge pet lover because she didn’t want to leave her home for any extended amount of time due to my dog having separation anxiety. She also provided me with photos, videos, and updates on how things were going.”
“Cynthia and Robert did a great job taking care of my dog. I felt comfortable knowing my pet was in good hands, and I really appreciated the frequent updates. It gave me peace of mind while I was away. I would definitely recommend her to others looking for a reliable sitter!”
“Anusha & her family were great! They were very welcoming and attentive when I dropped off my dog, Holly. Anusha clarified all the instructions and arrangements that we had discussed. Holly has some meds and a special diet and they stuck to everything. She was in frequent contact with updates and photos while I was away. Anusha and her family made boarding Holly easy and stress free! I would highly recommend boarding with them!”
“Alycia is wonderful! Our dogs were so well taken care of (including our older dog)!!! We really appreciate being able to leave town knowing that our dogs are in good hands!”
“Mika and her family were great with Rambeau. He looked happy and content. We enjoyed Rambeau's daily pictures and short video updates while we were out of town. And I hope to use them again. :-)”
“We used her twice within a month for our mini bernedoodle! Bear was excited to go back the second time and ran inside. He was tired when he got home, a sure sign he had a good time.”
“Leslie was incredible! It was a last minute booking and she was so thoughtful during our meet and greet. And Lily adjusted so quickly to her. Peanut, Leslie’s dog, is also just the sweetest. I was kept updated throughout my trip and knew Lily was in the best of hands! We’ll definitely be booking again.”
About: I have always had a dog and cat in my life (and still do!). I have been using Rover for two years and I don't seem to want to stop anytime soon. I have trained two golden retrievers and walked a lot of puppies, senior dogs and many ages in-between. One of my own dogs was awarded canine good citizenship before my children were born. I love being around animals and I have a caring nature. Now that my kids are getting older, it fits my need to get exercise and bring some joy into my life. I would love to give your pet some snuggles, snacks and I am always mindful to send lots of photos to ensure you can relax while you are away. I know that is what I would want as a pet owner. Some people think you have to either be a "dog person" or a "cat person". Not me! They both have a place in my heart for very different reasons. Cats take some time, but I love their comforting purr, the playfulness of spunky kittens or just petting their soft fur. Some owners simply just someone they can trust for a check-in. I am happy to provide the details needed so you can be OK while you are away. I am typically available in the afternoons as long as I don’t have a meeting scheduled (I work from home) and most evenings are available. Weekends are the best time to book care if you will be out for soccer games, dinner or long evening plans. I have kids as well and I have used Rover for 6+ years on my own pets. I am excited to return the favor to you now that my kids are older. I have used crates with my own pets during training and I will follow whatever safety instructions are needed. I understand all collars, how to avoid run ins with feisty dogs and other concerns you may have. I know how to troubleshoot dogs that like to find hiding spots or have the ability to slip out of the door. I am 40+ and I am raising tweens at this point, so I have a little wisdom under me that other walkers may not have at this point. I am also trustworthy. I have a great full-time job coupled with flexibility. I just want to combine my love of pets with a little extra income.
“We cannot recommend Sarah enough! From the moment she met our dog, she was patient, calm, and deeply knowledgeable. While we were away for over a week, we received daily photo updates and detailed texts that gave us total peace of mind. Our dog most definitely got more attention and pampering than she does at home:) When we came home, our pup was relaxed, happy, and clearly well-cared for. We look forward to using Sarah on our next trip! Thank you, Sarah!!”
“Asia was so sweet and professional. When we first arrived Asia and her fur baby Crypto welcome us. Asia made my lil boy (Biskit) feel so at home. I asked Asia to send me text, pictures, and videos, and she did just that. That really made my heart fill of joy to see pictures and videos of my lil boy(Biskit) and to know that he was well taken care of. We thank you so much Asia from the bottom of our hearts 💕 Sylvia and Antwon Dudley.”

“Sarah was incredible with our two cats while we were on a trip! She was highly responsive and proactive, and we felt like our cats were in really great hands the entire time.”
“Bonnie was great! She sent lots of photos at each check-in on my 2 cats. She also made comments to keep me apprised on how they were getting comfortable with her, which is important as they are both elderly cats & are slow to warm up to people.”
“Couldn’t have asked for better care for my senior cat! Brooke gave us great updates including cute pictures of Grasshopper and made sure my picky eater actually ate her k/d food. I’ve never felt more at ease about Grassy while traveling!”
“Mason is wonderful! He took great care of my cats while I was out of town and made sure they were loved on. He is transparent, easy to communicate with, and provides great visit reports and photos. You’ll be at ease knowing he is watching your fur babies and they will be well taken care of.”
“We're new to the area, and needed a sitter to take care of our four cats while we drove our car cross country to our new home. I'm so glad we found Diane! She took amazing care of our two geriatric cats who need pills and injections, and gave us assurance that they were on track with their meds. We got so many excellent photos at each visit, and we knew that our babies were getting lots of play and cuddle time. We'll be repeat customers with Diane again - highly recommend!”
“Danny and Jennie are the absolute best! We couldn’t thank them enough for meeting our high maintenance cat needs while we are out of town. They are the best and most trust worthy sitters we have ever had. This is my second time using them and I will continue to request them each time we need help! Thank you both!”
“Alicia took great care of my cats when I was out of town! She was punctual, respectful, and communicated well from the moment I sent the booking request. I came home to happy cats, highly recommended!”
About: As a lifelong cat lover, I know every cat has its own unique personality and routine. I've cared for cats my entire life, growing up with several of my own and continuing to provide trusted care for family and friends whenever they travel. Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and prefers quiet companionship, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home. From feeding and fresh water to litter box cleaning, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of affection on their terms, I'll treat your cat like one of my own while you're away.
“Suz is incredible. She is warm, flexible, reliable and my fur baby absolutely LOVES her. I have so much trust in her when I’m out of town to take care of my kitty. Absolute gem!”
“Alexandria took great care of our kitties while we were out of town! We have some finicky eaters and one who needs meds, and she didn’t have any issues with them. She was also kind enough to take our garbage cans from the curb and get the mail. I would highly recommend her!!”
“My dog LOVES Nicholas. He took the time to bond with her. He is reliable and kind. My mind was at ease knowing Nicholas was there to feed, walk, and comfort my dog.”
About: I’m that girl who will say hi to every animal I see. I grew up with a beagle and now have black lab mix named Louie, who I rescued in 2019. He is my “child”. 😂 im currently figuring out my career goals after working in accounting and finance roles for the past 15 years. This gives me plenty of flexibility during the day to care for your pup! I have fostered dogs through Is Today My Day rescue and have successfully gotten 4 dogs adopted. It’s not easy saying goodbye but makes me so happy knowing they are going to loving families. I’m so excited to meet your furry family member and love them like one of my own! I’m currently very flexible during the day time so I’m pretty open to dog walks or drop ins when needed. I no longer provide boarding services. My dog has full run of my home. He sleeps in my bed and I have no issues allowing others to do the same. I have a fenced in large patio area with partial yard to potty and play off leash.
“Susan was great she was very accommodating with my last minute request. She was very communicative & responded quickly. My BoBo is pretty shy around new people but he seemed to relax & feel comfortable. I liked the fact that she only sits for one pet at a time also.she let him have free roam of the house. Thank Susan for taking good care of my boy & having to put up with venting during a bad time. Will be happy for you to sit again when needed. Thank you Stacie N”

“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: I have always loved dogs. My husband and I adopted a beagle 5 years ago and we have just loved every minute of it. We go on daily walks, have plenty of toys and dog puzzles. I currently work from home and will have plenty of time to monitor and play with your dogs. My Beagle Tommy is also dog friendly. We go outside frequently and supervise outside playtime. I have a friendly beagle who loves to play hard and nap hard too. We allow dogs on the furniture and work from home. We do not crate dogs even when leaving the home.
“Ashley took great care of our family member. He was recently rescued and she was very accommodating and knowledgable about his timid personality. She was flexible with our last minute scheduling needs because we didn't even think that we were going to need doggy daycare while on vacation. I definitely recommend her!”
“Holy Smokes! Jeanne was so sweet and so kind to our new puppy. We are road tripping as a family and took our kids to Six Flags. Chip got to hang out with this lovely lady! She sent the best pictures and was very responsive. Highly recommend!”
“I have a young puppy (3 months old) and she had a great time. She was well taken care of and will definitely be coming back! I was provided updates and pictures throughout the day. Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I only recently, in the past couple of years, started taking care of other people’s pups, and I really enjoy it. I treat all pups as if they were my own. I am retired. I play pickleball quite a bit, but I am never gone more than a few hours at a time. My husband works from home, so there is almost always someone around to accompany your pup. My favorite part of the job is showering pups with love. We have mattresses on the floor and if the pups are willing, we love to snuggle with them. I typically walk them 4 to 6 times a day, depending on the wants/needs of the pup and the weather. I will be sure to check in multiple times daily with you and send photos and videos. I am very quick to respond to messages!

“My pup did daycare with Raini for 2 days. Everything went great and he was a happy pup! She has a great fenced in backyard for dogs and she sent lots of pictures and videos. This was our first experience using Rover and it was a good one.”

About: I’ve worked at Banfield pet hospital in different states, expanding my knowledge of different species from different regions. My grandmother owned a grooming business when I was a little rascal, which allowed me to be around fluffy friends all day. I work a typical day shift so my home is up and active by 6:30am every weekday and we’re on a walk before I head off to work. Evenings consist of walks before and after dinner. I allow animals to roam home as a part of their natural curiosity. I’ll have very deep conversations with my furry friends because I know for a fact they understand me, just as I do them. I enjoy walking around the neighborhood and, on average, I bike 10 miles a day to stay in top shape.

“Max is always happy to see Kiffin and she is very easy to communicate with about what you want for your dog. Max needs to be urged along and not sniff every 2 seconds. Kiffin makes sure he gets some decent exercise!”
“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!”

About: Hi! I'm Sarah. I grew up with cats and have over 20 years of experience caring for them. A little later on, two adorable golden retrievers joined my family, giving me over 10 years of experience caring for dogs as well. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, including puppies, kittens, seniors, and pets who need medication. I've always loved animals, and pet sitting has become one of my favorite ways to spend my time. I enjoy getting to know each pet's personality, building trust with them, and making sure they have plenty of attention, enrichment, and care while their people are away. Whether your pet is outgoing and social or prefers their space, I'm happy to follow their lead and adapt to what makes them most comfortable. I believe trust is earned, not assumed, so I always let animals set the pace and do my best to meet them where they're at. You'll receive plenty of photos and updates throughout your booking, and I'll care for your pets the same way I care for my own: with patience, respect, and lots of attention to their individual needs. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m self-employed, which gives me a flexible schedule to work around your pet’s needs. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I can often accommodate extra visits on short notice. For me, the fundamentals of a drop-in are relationship building, care tasks, and enrichment. When I arrive, my first priority is making your pet feel safe and comfortable with my presence in their home, and that usually starts with a hello. Sometimes that means a full cuddle session; sometimes it's just a quick sniff before they go back to doing their own thing. Sometimes I won't see them at all for the first few visits, and that's okay too. Whatever your pet's personality, I'll always let them come to me first. Building trust takes patience, respect, and consistency, and I'm there to meet them where they're at. Once we've said hello, I'll take care of the basics: food, water, medication, litter box, potty break, walk, and any other care tasks we discuss at the meet & greet. I'll always prioritize your pet's immediate needs, whether that's attention, playtime, or simply giving them space if they're feeling unsure. My goal is to make sure everything gets done while keeping them comfortable and stress-free. After that comes enrichment—the fun part! Depending on your pet, that might mean playtime, cuddles, brushing, training reinforcement, or simply keeping them company. I'll also take plenty of photos throughout the visit so you can see how they're doing while you're away. The time you've booked (30 minutes, 60 minutes, etc.) is dedicated entirely to your pet's care and enrichment. Afterward, I'll spend a few extra minutes completing a detailed Rover card with photos and notes about our visit. If my schedule allows, I often stay a little longer, though I can't always guarantee it. This is the general framework I follow, but every visit is tailored to your pet's individual needs and personality. My goal is always the same: to make sure they feel safe, cared for, and connected while you're away.

“We cannot recommend Sarah enough! From the moment she met our dog, she was patient, calm, and deeply knowledgeable. While we were away for over a week, we received daily photo updates and detailed texts that gave us total peace of mind. Our dog most definitely got more attention and pampering than she does at home:) When we came home, our pup was relaxed, happy, and clearly well-cared for. We look forward to using Sarah on our next trip! Thank you, Sarah!!”

“Isabella was great! I was nervous leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know but her past reviews made me feel more comfortable. She was quick to send me pictures and updates on how my pup was adjusting. I would 100% recommend Isabella to family and friends and plan to use her again in the future! Thank you!!”
“Carly was easy to communicate with, kept us up-to-date during our trip, and our girl came home as happy as ever. Thank you for your help, and Matilda will hope to see you again soon. :)”
“This was my first time using Rover and I must say I have absolutely no regrets! From day one, Leah was amazing! She was super responsive, warm and welcoming. I was so nervous to leave my cat Shai, as cats can sometimes struggle outside of their homes, but from the moment I let Shai out of the carrier, he was on the go! That let me know I made the right decision. Her kids were so gentle with him as well, which was another indication of a loving, safe environment. I am so grateful and thankful for meeting these wonderful group of woman. This will be my go to for pet sitting from now on! Thank you all so much!”
“I’m just going to say a quick review as I already left a long and great review for Julia after my other booking. She was wonderful and I highly recommend her. My BoBo loved her and didn’t wanna leave. Thanks, Julia 💕💕💕”
“Stella had an amazing time with Ashlie and Phillip! They are very comfortable with large dogs and made me feel so at ease leaving my pet in their care. Their home is perfect with a fenced in backyard and the entire family is used to having dogs around. I received picture/updates and had a wonderful experience! I will definitely be using Ashlie and Phillip in the future!”

“Catherine is amazing!!!!!!! My baby had a ball she was so tired when we got home. It’s so hard to find people good with bigger dogs. She is our new dog sitter for sure. You won’t be disappointed.”
