“I feel like 5 stars just isn’t enough for Charles. He was absolutely amazing. He communicated with me regarding my crazy work schedule that affected my drop-off time. He was so friendly and kind. McNugget had such a great time she went to sleep the minute she got home. I’m sure if she could talk, she would tell me about the wonderful time she had over the weekend. Will definitely be rebooking. This was a perfect, first experience using Rover.”

“My two beagles recently enjoyed two separate stays with Amy. She was great to work with, being very responsive to scheduling requests and doing a pre-stay meet-up with us. She has a great little yard for dogs to enjoy outside time as well as taking them for walks each day. My dogs were happy to arrive at her house for their second stay, which goes to show that they felt safe in her care. I would highly recommend Amy!”
“I loved leaving my Ellie girl with Sara. I was searching for a last minute sitter and she came through for me! She is so sweet, easy to communicate with, and sent me plenty of pictures. I feel like she went above and beyond for my dog and that meant so much to me! I appreciate you Sara! :)”

We would love to book with her again in the future.”

About: I've taken care of dogs since before I was 10. I grew up with German Shepherds, an Alaskan Husky, as well as a Shih Tzu who ruled the roost. I rescued a pup almost 5 years ago so am now a dog mom to a loving Terrier mix. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk and take care of their pets. I work from home and am available to take your dog on an adventure during the day. I live near an off-leash dog park and am also an avid hiker. I'm also available to dogsit during the day. I have a fenced yard and one friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can also come to you when it makes sense to do so.

“Even before our booking, Savannah was thorough and showed her care for our pets. She asked great questions and was sure to understand our pets needs. During our time away, she was communicative and put us at ease!”

About: I grew up on a farm and have always had animals around me. I subcontracted for a Rover pet sitter for 6 months as well as pet sitting for family and friends for the past several years. I am currently working Monday through Friday and occasional weekends. I start at 11 and my hours range from 2 to 5 hours a day. So my day job won’t take me away from your pet for too long. While in the clients home caring for their pets, I do what is needed to make sure their pet is as comfortable as possible, and try to stick to their daily routine as closely as possible.
“I really appreciated the updates and photos every day! Super easy to communicate with. Did great with administering my kittens meds!! Very reliable and easy to get ahold of. Made my birthday trip way better without having to worry about my kitties!”
“Thank you so much for watching Olive! This was my first time leaving my pet with a sitter and he made me feel so comfortable and at ease. I can’t thank you enough for helping during the holidays.”
“Jenna was a wonderful sitter for our cats. She made sure to look for our shy cat to make sure he was ok which was very appreciated! She sent us a lot of picture updates and was thorough in her communication. Our cats seemed happy to have her company. Thank you Jenna!!”
“Alanna is an absolutely wonderful pet sitter, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly. She has watched my special needs cat, Nubs, several times and has been consistently amazing. Nubs requires medication, and Alanna has no issues pilling her—she handles it confidently and calmly, which gives me so much peace of mind. Her communication is excellent; she keeps me updated and is always responsive. Most importantly, it’s clear how much she genuinely cares for Nubs. She gives her so much love and attention, and I always feel completely assured knowing Nubs is in such capable, compassionate hands when I’m away.”
“Olivia took fantastic care of our cat Milton! He is older and usually very shy around strangers, but she was able to make friends with him over the course of our time away and he came out for scritches and treats!💖”
“Carol was very gracious and offered to meet our cats even before we confirmed the booking. She took her time to let them be comfortable and I could see they were well-taken care of when I came home from my trip. She even cleaned their food bowls which I appreciated so much!”
“Anna did a great job! We were happy with her punctuality, updates and responsiveness and our cat seemed well taken care of and in good spirits when we returned. Everything we asked was completed and we’d be more than happy to book with her again!”
“Melissa did a great job taking care of our two indoor only cats. Houdini in particular, is very picky about the folks he associates with, and he loved Melissa right away. She was able to get him to take his meds twice a day and the pictures she took show that both cats felt very comfortable approaching her for food, pets and brushing. She even went above and beyond and kept our porch plants watered. Highly recommend!”
“Emily was so sweet with my little Zoey Bear. Zoey has pretty bad separation anxiety and I could tell that she was at ease with Emily. Additionally, Emily went above and beyond to come meet Zoey before the scheduled date and she even gave Zoey a massage while I was gone! Emily was on time, responsive to my messages, and respectful to my home as well. I will be booking he again for sure and highly recommend her!”

“Bonnie took wonderful care of our dog Penny! This was our first experience with Rover, and we were a bit anxious about it overall. Bonnie kept us up to date with how Penny was doing and even sent photos to let us know how she was doing. We couldn’t have asked for someone better to take care of our pup!”
“Ben was a gracious host that booked us at the last minute for an afternoon stay. Our dog enjoyed her time there and was thouroughly tukered out playing with Bella. Ben helped us out in pinch and we would recommend him for an afternoon or overnight stay.”
“Abby was excellent with our Pepper. She gave him very good care and attention. He must have had a good time with her since he is tired out now , and quite quiet which for him means he is tired out instead of wired. She sent a picture of him as well as short reports during his time with her.”
“We had a wonderful experience tonight. Marina took great care of Scout and made everything easy for us. Communication was excellent, updates were timely, and Scout was clearly relaxed and happy when she returned. We really appreciated the attention to detail and the kindness shown to our pup. Highly recommend.”
About: I have had a pet my entire life and have a huge heart for dogs. My current family pet (that does not live with me) is a little more needy, so I have experience with caring for pets that need medicine, special food, or just some extra love and attention. I work fully remote so I am home every day of the week. My job is very flexible so I can take your pet outside and on walks when I am not on a call! I would care for your pet by keeping them on their usual routine with feeding, potty breaks, and plenty of walks. I make sure they get exercise, playtime, and lots of love! I also keep their space clean and safe, and share regular updates so you always know how they’re doing.
About: Hi! I’m Peyten, and dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with pets and currently have two dogs of my own, so I know how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your dog like family. While I’m new to Rover, I’ve spent years watching friends’ and family members’ dogs and figured it was finally time to create a profile and help other dog owners too! I work from home full-time, which means your dog will get lots of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day — not just quick check-ins. We also have a fully fenced backyard, and my dogs and I love walks, hikes, park trips, and spending time outside. Whether your dog is high-energy or prefers couch cuddles, I’m happy to match their vibe and routine. I’ll always follow your care instructions closely and make sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, and right at home. I’m also happy to send updates and photos during their stay if that’s something you’d like! Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine since I work from home full-time and already care for my own two dogs every day. My schedule allows for regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of supervision throughout the day — not just mornings and evenings. We’re active and love getting outside for walks, hikes, or park trips, but there’s also plenty of downtime for dogs who prefer a calmer routine. I’m happy to follow whatever routine or schedule the owner has for their dog to help them feel comfortable and at home. Since I work from home, I regularly let my dogs outside for fresh air and playtime throughout the day, and we usually fit in walks, hikes, or a game of fetch at the park during the week.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Kerns
“Savannah was incredible! She showed up on time and spent extra time on her walk with Layka. I highly recommend her and I will definitely use her again in the future. In her meet and greet (introduction) she asked very pointed questions and had a great follow up. She treats your pet like her own and shows you right away that she cares about your animal.”

I have an hour lunch break which I can adjust to fit your dogs schedule and when I get off at work, I will take the dogs on a walk/to the park to get that last bit of energy in. I have a golden retriever who is such a lover and enjoys the company of others. He is crate trained so I can put him away if needed or I can also easily crate train your pets.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 13 Years old and have had experience with both young and senior pets. I was responsible for training some of my own family's pets, and I enjoy adapting to basic training with puppies or providing gentle and patient care for older pets who need extra support. I am very reliable with feeding schedules, medications, and updates so you can feel fully confidnet you pet is in good hands! Pet care fits into my routine by being something I attentively prioritize and plan around. I structure my schedule so I can give pets full attention during visits and walks. I am flexible with all times throughout the day, whether that be mornings, afternoons, or evenings. This helps me to accommodate feeding schedules, exercise needs, and check-ins. I prioritize building my day to be reliable so each pet receives consistent and effective care. When I am caring for a client's pet, I follow an established routine to help pets feel comfortable and secure under my care. I prioritize important aspects of schedules, including feedings, walks, playtime, and medication if needed. I keep homes clean, respect the spaces of those I am hired by, and love to provide regular photo updates so owners know their pet is doing well. My overall goal is to keep a calm, familiar environment that reduces stress for pets.
About: I have had high energy dogs mostly heelers and love to take them outside for adventures. It helps me bond with them and teach them to be social. I currently work evenings and bring my our dog out for walks all the time during the day. I love taking him to the dog park and hiking and have room to bring others with me. I mostly take my dog to the dog park and leash him when I take him hiking. I would be able to bring another dog with us when we adventure.

“Charles was absolutely wonderful. It was my first time using Rover, and he made me feel very comfortable. He was also highly communicative, flexible, and clearly LOVES dogs. I would highly recommend him!”
About: I absolutely love and adore all dogs! I grew up with a border collie and cared for her when she got old! I also have a 4 year old border collie and am not new to the puppy phases! :) I have dog sat for many of my neighbors growing up and since then. I am happy to meet you and your dog! Like I said I am a pet owner and work a full time job. So I have nothing short of a busy life, but I would love to add your fur friend to my agenda! :) The dogs will go out and play multiple times a day as I have the yard space to allow fetch, chase, or even just lounging. I live in a ground level apartment with an unfenced yard. There is plenty space between the yard and the road, which isn’t a very busy one anyway, but your pet will be safe from any cars, etc. I live about a 5-10 minute walk from Gallatin Regional Dog Park, so if your fur friend needs a fenced in space to run and play, that is an option as well! I also love to explore new parks around town and go on hikes so plenty of adventures will be in place! We will check out different dog parks, go swimming (if that’s what they like), go on hikes, play fetch, go on car rides, and of course cuddle! Nova (my dog) and I live a very busy lifestyle. When I am not at work, we (including your furry friend) will be going on hikes, camping trips, water days, car rides, visit my parents (up in the mountains), or just hang out in the backyard and play. We don’t always go on big adventures as I have plenty of yard space for the dogs to roam freely and run and exercise as needed. *If you are uncomfortable with your pet doing any of these things, please communicate ahead of time or expect some activities to occur.
About: Hello, my name is Julia! I was born and raised in Houston, but received my Bachelor's of Science degree from Colorado State University. I grew up with cats, but have always loved dogs. I have been dog sitting for about 11 years. I am very comfortable around them and understand the responsibility that comes with owning a pet. I love animals and always shower them with love and affection. I understand how important exercise and engagement is and will take your dog for long walks/runs (if appropriate) and play with them. One summer I enrolled in a summer class about the behavior and biology of dogs. This course provided me with further insight into the behaviors of a dog and has made me more conscientious with how I hold myself and approach a dog. I have experience with all different types of breeds and am open to all! I am available for dog sitting/walking, drop-in visits, and cat sitting. I am not working at the moment, so my schedule is very available to take care of your fur babies! I am looking for work or volunteer work in town, so my schedule is subject to change. However I expect it to remain flexible. If there are any rooms that the pet is not allowed in, I will ensure that they are closed off. While I am outside with the pet, I will make sure I have eyes on them at all times, and that they remain on a leash if I’m a public place.
