“Lara took wonderful care of our little Teddy! He got plenty of attention and loving from her and her sweet children. I appreciated that she sent pictures and texts to let me know that he was adjusting and doing well!”
“Danielle and her husband were awesome ! We left our two pups with them while on a trip to the beach and they constantly kept us updated and send lots of pics of them playing. We were at ease knowing they were in good hands and we will definitely go to them again for another beach trip !”
“Ollie had a great stay with Yueqian and her family. I knew how great a time Ollie had when I saw how much she didn’t want to go home with me. Will definitely trust Yueqian again with Ollie in the future.”
“This was our boy’s second stay with Donna. We will definitely continue to be a repeat customer. Donna treats our boy as if he is her own. Between golf cart rides, beach walks, trips to the park, etc., she keeps him too busy to be missing home. She sends tons of videos and pictures and my boy always looks like he’s having the best time ever. We love Donna!”
“Unfortunately, we had a change in plans and did not leave our dog with Katelyn. She was very gracious about it and refunded my payment. I met with her beforehand and she seemed a lovely person with a large, fenced in yard that my dog would love. We will keep her in mind when we need dog sitting in the future”
“Highly recommend Kyle, he was very communicative and took very good care of our dogs. Our dogs were happy and tired out by pick up time, we will definitely be booking again in the future!”
“Abigail and her daughter were fantastic. Our Frenchie craves attention and he got it in spades as evidenced by the many pictures and messages. He was very happy when we picked him up after 5 days and that was so comforting. Thank you. Highly recommend. Six stars!”
“Stella took great care of my girls (a Boston terrier and a “Velcro” Dalmatian) for a week. It was a last minute booking and she communicated so promptly and professionally. She even offered a meet and greet which made me feel even more comfortable leaving our fur babies with her. Stella had a great yard for them to play in, and updated us with pictures and videos nearly everyday! I would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a sitter that they can trust and feel like their babies were made feel right at home! Thank you Stella!”
“Thelma had a great time running around the yard! Robert send along cute photos and was flexible when our plans had to change last minute. Highly recommend!”
“Stephanie was wonderful. We had to board our puppy last minute due to complications with a reservation we had. She was quick to reply and we are so grateful that she helped us. She took pictures of Myla and gave me updates on how she was doing.”
“Shannon provided exceptional care, affection, and understanding to my rescue Beagle, Milo. This marked our first separation in the two and a half years he has been a member of our family. I initially experienced considerable apprehension regarding the prospect of leaving Milo; however, upon meeting Shannon, I was immediately confident that he would receive outstanding attention. Shannon consistently provided photographs and updates on Milo's well-being. Upon my return to retrieve Milo, he demonstrably expressed his affection for Shannon and her mother through repeated embraces prior to his departure. Witnessing the bond that had developed in merely two days was both heartwarming and profoundly reassuring.”
“Alicia and Van are absolutely wonderful. We love to leave Socks with them whenever we can. He loves playing Reecie and Lacey and I love that he has them to keep him busy!”
“Jerry was amazing and took excellent care of Raya. He even celebrated her first birthday with a pup cup and doggy cookies! I very much appreciated the updates and pictures of how she was doing. Highly recommend Jerry!”
“Amy was awesome! It was my first time leaving Bailey with anyone other than family. I expected to be nervous but I felt very confident and at ease, especially when Amy sent me photos and videos of Bailey hanging out with her and her family. Bailey did great and I will definitely be calling Amy again when I need a sitter!”
“We are so happy that our 18 month old golden retriever, Darla had her 1st stay away from home with Jennifer and Matthew. Jenn sent updates and pictures of Darla playing and having fun with her fur babies. Jenn was very prompt in getting back to us with any questions we had. She and her family were extremely welcoming and gave us a comforting sense that Darla was well cared for in a clean, organized and loving home. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jenn and Matt and look forward to working with them soon!”
“If you are looking for a pet sitter for your fur baby, look no further. Melissa is a caring responsible pet owner and will care for your pet as if it is her own. She was very conscious of Josie’s routine and habits. I felt very comfortable leaving her with Melissa. I received pictures and updates everyday. Definitely will be using Melissa again to watch Josie.”
“Taylor took great care of our 17 year old senior pup. She has an array of age-related needs, and he made sure she was comfortable, eating regularly, and getting outside...and all of those things are challenging for her at this point. I would highly recommend him!”

About: I’ve had my dog Chloe since she was a pup, I’ve crate trained her, she knows how to sit, shake, and speak when given a treat. I work full time but willing to work around my work schedule and my days off to take care of your fur baby to feed, walk, potty breaks.

About: Updated: 09/04/2025 I’ve always owned multiple pets and have taken care of neighbor’s pets since I was 11. I’ve been working on and off through rover for about 8 years now but have much more experience pet sitting aside from rover (if you’re wondering why there are only a few recorded sits on my profile). If your animal needs special care such as medication, diaper/pad changing, extra exercise, etc, it’s no hassle at all on my end and I’m experienced with all of these and more! I’m comfortable sitting any animal and I’m comfortable with pet/house sitting that requires me to stay over at the house or visit the house. I completely understand any requirements that ensure the pet’s comfort or your peace of mind :) Feel free to ask me any questions! I care for pets in my own home which gives me more insight to both caring for the pet and understanding the perspective of an owner. This also unfortunately means I can’t board pets at my own house. I live in a house with a dog and a cat and I prioritize their comfort so I don’t want to board other pets in my home with them.
“Marie was great watching my fur babies while we were on vacation. She put some beautiful pictures on the app so we could see how great my kitties looked. I was missing them terribly and Marie took great care of them. I would highly recommend Marie with the job looking after their pets. Thank you Marie!”
“Cassie did a great job of keeping us updated on our pets while we were away! She provided a thorough update on their moods, health, and appetites, and took the best pictures! She even took the time to meet them beforehand and ensured we felt comfortable with her. If something looked off in the house, she advised us of that as well. We could tell that our pets were well taken care of and had gotten plenty of play time and attention. Would recommend Cassie as she obviously loves animals and cared for our pets so well!”

About: I have grown up with animals, and always loved caring and providing a safe and fun environment for them to be themselves and be safe. Need potty breaks in the day? Need a day out of the house?

About: Growing up, we had all the sorts of pets that one can imagine…dogs and cats mostly and the whole family took part in taking wonderful care of them. I personally have had my cat, Clarence, for about 13 years now and he still acts like a kitten! Love that guy with all my heart. I love dogs too, but I’d like to have a fenced in yard before I get another one. I help out with friends and family whenever they need help house/pet sitting and enjoy it very much (that’s how I get my dog time in 😊). I’ve also worked for a company called Fairy Tails in DC.

All in all I’d treat your pet like it were my own, and I’m also used to different types of personalities in pets and don’t shy away from the shy ones. I do have a regular job that would require me to be away for 8 hours at a time. I work mostly evenings starting at 3:30pm. With enough notice, I can take the time out to stop by or even stay over as long as it’s not too far away. Thanks for your consideration! My cat, Clarence, gets along with other pets. Trust me when I say that he doesn’t lack in the love department. He runs freely inside, but my yard isn’t fenced in, so I don’t let him go out. I would follow pet/house sitting, and dog walking instructions as to whatever the client would request.

Enzo is 9 but a puppy at heart, he doesn't let his illness slow him down he was a beach dog I fell in love with while on vacation in the Barbados, he was estimated to be 4 at the time, I had a vet on the island quarantine and vet him (shots/neutering) and one month later I was back to get my love. We have been diagnosed and dealing with the Addison's for two years now and he couldn't be happier or healthier. I have boarded dogs in the past for about 10 years now, I also foster dogs in need of homes on occasion.

We take daily walks for exercise, and no dog is ever left unattended outside. I have a big comfy sectional for there relaxation. I have no problem with separating to feed if your baby is more comfortable that way, I personally don't crate my dogs but have no problem if your dog is more comfortable crated at night, or while running an errand. I don't mind bathing, brushing or clipping nails at your request.

Please do not hesitate to ask questions Preparation and education is key. Anything that you can think of that I might need to know we can go over in our meet and greet.
About: Dogs, cats, turtles, if it needed a home it found a loving life at our house! Over the years that has not changed, a house without sandy paws and a wet noses just would not be complete! I am a director for oncology research and also enjoy working with dogs. I have 2, 7 year old Golden labs. One of which is a certificated Therapy dog who loves her job! The other has been task trained for pain management. Both love to meet new playmates and people! When traveling I am very careful who I leave them with as they need to remain in their routine and I worry for their safety. The peace of mine I have found with my awesome Rover sitter Meghan I would like to offer those in my area. I work from home, am pro raw feeding (if you would like to learn ask 😀), believe animals are part of the family and deserve to be treated with love, respect and provided an environment where they can thrive! When you are away it is confusing enough, you need someone to help keep your furry family members routine and environment as consistent as possible. I work from home making my schedule very flexible. I can accommodate your routine and scheduled walks. One of my pups has low blood sugar and the other requires injections so I understand the importance of keeping a schedule! We are very accessible to walking paths, parks and the beach if allowed. I will not take your dog to a dog park or allow your dog to met other dogs without your permission. I have a strict no meeting other dogs on leash policy.

About: I’ve been trusted to take care of others dogs and cats since I was 14 (walk, feed, bathe). I am open to any breed. I also work with both dogs and cats. I also have some experience with reptiles, as I have a bearded dragon of my own.

I have experience with animals ages ranging from 9 weeks old to 15 years old. I have a lot of time to give to your babies and would love to care and play with them!

About: Over the years I've had experience with all stages and ages of pets, especially dogs, but also including horses, chickens, fish, guinea pigs, bunnies, cats etc. I've raised and cared for my own pets from puppies to elder dogs, special needs to the most energetic (or anxious). I've taken in some willful and anxious fur babies that have thrived and became amazing loyal, obedient and loving companions. I have also been blessed with 4 amazing grown kiddos that have pets of their own and I get to care for them often and its the best!! Most of my/my families pets have been rescues but we've also had/have several pure bred Animals (Long-haired German Shepherd, Newfoundland, Maltese, Blue Pittie). I like to make sure the fur babies get lots of love and exercise, but its also okay if your pet is a bit more stand-offish. I truly appreciate when pet parents leave information about routine, pets personality and preferences and will follow instructions meticulously. Special needs, medications, puppy care, etc are also welcome (of course!!). Feel free to ask any questions...look forward to chatting and meeting you/your fur babies. I am an empty-nested Mom and Mimi with my kids' families being spread around CO, NC, TN, GA, STX so I travel to see kids/grandkids/family...a lot...and I love it. This gives me the flexibility to do house sitting/pet care around those visits (in some cases, I've done sits near my kids as well and check both boxes, pet care and visits with the fam). I'm looking to pet/house sit almost full-time around family visits. I'm also VERY open to traveling to pet sits outside my home base area, overseas as well. I lost my little Maltese "Smiles" a few years ago and have poured my snuggles into my kid's 6 dogs. With my travel schedule its hasn't felt like the right time to add a new pet to my personal life so getting to love on my families' pets and those that I sit for really helps fill that void. I only care for pets in your/their home. I am primarily looking for overnight sits, but will also be available for walks and drop-in care.
About: Updated: 09/04/2025 I’ve always owned multiple pets and have taken care of neighbor’s pets since I was 11. I’ve been working on and off through rover for about 8 years now but have much more experience pet sitting aside from rover (if you’re wondering why there are only a few recorded sits on my profile). If your animal needs special care such as medication, diaper/pad changing, extra exercise, etc, it’s no hassle at all on my end and I’m experienced with all of these and more! I’m comfortable sitting any animal and I’m comfortable with pet/house sitting that requires me to stay over at the house or visit the house. I completely understand any requirements that ensure the pet’s comfort or your peace of mind :) Feel free to ask me any questions! I care for pets in my own home which gives me more insight to both caring for the pet and understanding the perspective of an owner. This also unfortunately means I can’t board pets at my own house. I live in a house with a dog and a cat and I prioritize their comfort so I don’t want to board other pets in my home with them.

“This was our boy’s second stay with Donna. We will definitely continue to be a repeat customer. Donna treats our boy as if he is her own. Between golf cart rides, beach walks, trips to the park, etc., she keeps him too busy to be missing home. She sends tons of videos and pictures and my boy always looks like he’s having the best time ever. We love Donna!”
“Unfortunately, we had a change in plans and did not leave our dog with Katelyn. She was very gracious about it and refunded my payment.

“Highly recommend Kyle, he was very communicative and took very good care of our dogs. Our dogs were happy and tired out by pick up time, we will definitely be booking again in the future!”

“Shannon provided exceptional care, affection, and understanding to my rescue Beagle, Milo. This marked our first separation in the two and a half years he has been a member of our family. I initially experienced considerable apprehension regarding the prospect of leaving Milo; however, upon meeting Shannon, I was immediately confident that he would receive outstanding attention. Shannon consistently provided photographs and updates on Milo's well-being. Upon my return to retrieve Milo, he demonstrably expressed his affection for Shannon and her mother through repeated embraces prior to his departure. Witnessing the bond that had developed in merely two days was both heartwarming and profoundly reassuring.”
“Amy was awesome! It was my first time leaving Bailey with anyone other than family. I expected to be nervous but I felt very confident and at ease, especially when Amy sent me photos and videos of Bailey hanging out with her and her family. Bailey did great and I will definitely be calling Amy again when I need a sitter!”
“We are so happy that our 18 month old golden retriever, Darla had her 1st stay away from home with Jennifer and Matthew.

She and her family were extremely welcoming and gave us a comforting sense that Darla was well cared for in a clean, organized and loving home. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jenn and Matt and look forward to working with them soon!”
“If you are looking for a pet sitter for your fur baby, look no further. Melissa is a caring responsible pet owner and will care for your pet as if it is her own.
