“Very attentive. Our old girl gave him a pretty rough first night. He took great care of her despite her being the messiest girl in the room. I would definitely recommend to take care of your furry friends.”
“Ollie and Chief loved their stay with Natalie and her family! Ollie got to play with Natalies dog Rocky and get some of his energy out. Natalie was able to take care of Chiefs senior dog needs (like his diapers!) and treated the dogs as her own. We will definitely use her again in the future since she took such great care of our fur babies!”
“Sadie has the BEST time staying here. Gabrielle was so nice, their house was very nice, and had a big back yard and pool which she loved. Easy drop off and pick up. Gabrielle sent me picture updates of my dog having so much fun and I would definitely book with her again!”
“Samantha did a great job taking care of Mia for a whole week. She was even able to feed Mia her farmers dog food three times a day. She took Mia for walks and kept her separate from much larger dogs. Mia loved her visit. She also showed us pictures of Mia throughout the day. We felt so much better during our vacation knowing Mia was in good hands.”
“We love Larissa and so do our pups! Larissa and her family have been amazing with our dogs. We have an elderly dog and a playful dog and they have been so great with both of them. Highly recommend Larissa!”

She sent photos and a video of my dog and I felt very comfortable leaving Laci in her care. I would definitely recommend her and would use her again in the future. Laci had a great time!”
“Danielle is absolutely amazing! She took care of my puppy for 5 days. She followed all of the care instructions and would communicate throughout the days. When I meet her I knew my puppy was in great hands. Highly recommend Danielle for dog boarding and grooming!”
“Donna took care of our dog as if he were her own! She took the time to learn all about his habits and gave him all the attention he needed. I could tell he was so comfortable at her house and well-loved. I really appreciated the photo and update after the first day so we k ew he was happy & doing well. I will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Brook has been fantastic for boarding my dog, Rheia. She is organized, flexible, communicative, and loving! Rheia gets excited when we turn the corner into Brook’s neighborhood. I’m sure if Rheia were reviewing, she’d give Brook 5 stars, too!”

“Cassie was very accommodating. She took wonderful care of our basset hound. If you know a basset, then you know that they are stubborn and can't be trusted. Since our dog is still in her puppy stage, she can be a handful. Cassie enjoyed having her and was willing to watch her again. I highly recommend using Cassie as your next dog sitter.”
About: One of my biggest strengths as a pet sitter is my high energy and fun loving personality. I genuinely enjoy being active, whether that means long walks and jogs or playing fetch for half an hour. Whether your pet wants to cuddle on the couch or burn off energy with playtime, I'm happy to match their pace and make sure they feel safe and happy while you're away. I'm out the door Monday- Friday from 0730 to approx. 1600. I could walk/run/feed your pets in the morning prior to then and anytime after I'm home from work. Saturday and Sunday I am very flexible :) I have two cats that I will keep upstairs to give your pet the privacy and space on the first floor when boarding. I live in a townhouse with a small front and backyard but would most likely be walking/ jogging around the block with your doggo if boarding.
“KenLynn was amazing!! I am very anxious about leaving JuJu and have very high standards, and I felt very comfortable and sure that he was in great hands. It was so much fun getting those cute and funny pictures! I’ll definitely be getting in touch when we need a sitter again. Thank you, KenLynn!!!”
“Danielle was fantastic. She communicated fast, I’m glad she was available for our last minute trip. She took such great care of Whiskey, he had a wonderful time. Will definitely book with her again 🤍”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for cats and kittens through fostering and volunteering at my local animal shelter. I’ve fostered cats and kittens of different ages, personalities, and needs, including sick kittens who required extra care, patience, and close attention. I’m comfortable caring for shy or nervous cats, playful kittens, and cats who may need a little extra time to feel comfortable with someone new. I understand that every cat has their own personality and will always respect their space while making sure they feel safe and cared for. Whether your cat needs feeding, litter box care, playtime, cuddles, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re one of my own. 🐱🐾

About: I have multi-dog household experience. There has always been at least two dogs in my house growing up, they’re my favorite animals. I have a chocolate Labrador named Whiskey, and a Schnoodle named Max. My chihuahua sadly passed away. I love to meet and have other dogs in my house. I’m comfortable administering oral medication if needed. I’ll send daily photo updates. I’m a stay at home mom so there’s always time to care and play with our furry kids. I wake up between 6-8am and go to bed by 10pm. When I need to leave the house to run errands, I don’t take longer than 3 hours at a time, so I make sure my pets are taken outside for potty and water breaks. There is a fenced area in the back of our house, and a big open area. I can take them out on a leash if needed or crate them if they’re not house trained.

My goal is to create a safe, stress-free experience built on trust, consistency, and genuine care—for both pets and their owners.
About: There is nothing I love more than taking care or sweet fur babies. I’ve had personal experience taking care of dogs of any size for over 11 years. I have one small dog of my own that is old and very easy going. I currently work full time with kids with Autism. I usually work from 10-4. I prefer dogs that are crate trained and that can be left alone for a few hours. I am also available to dog walk before and after work! I have a large backyard area, however; it is not fully fenced. I make sure dogs are leashed when we hang out in the backyard!
About: I can’t remember a time I didn’t have a dog. I love to play with them and do anything I can to keep them happy. We’ve got our own house with a fenced in back yard. I am a stay at home mom as well. My kids loves to be outside, so we’ll get plenty of play time! I treat the dogs I watch as they’re my own. Give as much cuddles and play time as they want/need. I will meet all the requirements requested and anything else the dog/owner may need.
“Rebecca was a perfect sitter for our puppy. She had her dog to be a playmate for our rambunctious Jack Russell. It was very convenient to drop him off and pick up. I highly recommend her.”
“Maggie - my 8 yr old Labrador pet therapy dog - had a great time. Got walked, had a few other dogs to socialize with. Julia did an excellent job - we rebooked for a longer stay.”
About: We have been taking care of dogs since 2018! We are so enjoying it!! Hubby walks the dogs and I cuddle and play! It's a win win for your fur baby! For doggie day care we are available between 8 am and 6pm Monday through Friday. Would love long term . We do have one small dog. For boarding we are available both weekdays and weekends. We have a nice fenced-in backyard and my husband takes the dogs out for walks when possible! When that option isn't available,they have dedicated playtime in the yard.We have one dog that is not initially playful but takes a while to warm up but he does typically! I do require a meet and greet before committing and for pets to show proof of rabies shots,heartworm and flea and tic treatments. I work part time outside the home but my hubby works part time in the home so rarely are we both gone at the same time. I have a fenced in yard and my husband tries to walk our dog daily.Typically will hit the area walking trails. If necessary, he is willing to walk animals separately(older dog who can not walk as long or dogs who have health challenges)Our dog is aloof and takes a bit of time to adjust but usually does. We are attentive to this and supervise very closely until we see how things are going to be. We own both a large and small dog crate and can separate them if needed

I have had experience dealing with special needs dogs and dogs requiring specific tailored care. I am currently attending College and have a flexible schedule.

About: Lifelong Animal Lover & Trusted Dog Sitter 🐾 About Me: Hi, I’m Brook – a lifelong animal lover with over a decade of experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes! I’ve been looking after pups since I was 15, starting with dog sitting for neighbors and family friends. I know firsthand how tough it can be to leave your furry family members behind – that’s why my goal is to make your dog feel safe, loved, and right at home. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or just a calm presence while you’re away, I treat every dog like they’re my own. From tiny paws to senior snouts, I’m here to make sure your pup gets the care, comfort, and attention they deserve! I’m a part-time teacher on Camp Lejeune, which means I’m available weekdays after 12:30 PM and completely free on weekends. I’m usually home by 1 PM and spend the rest of the day relaxing, hanging out and caring for yours! Your dog will get plenty of attention, love, and time to play or just chill out — whatever makes them happiest. What You Can Expect: ✅ Safe, fun adventures tailored to your dog’s personality ✅ 100% transparency before and during the stay ✅ Daily photo updates and check-ins ✅ A calm, clean, and pet-friendly home ✅ Personalized care — whether they’re a couch potato or an explorer!
About: I’ve taken care of numerous pets since childhood (some of my families, friends, and breeders). I LOVE them all. I’ve had cats, dogs, birds (parakeets, lovebirds, cockatiels), rabbits, fish, and guinea pigs. Have worked as a vet tech and have a very strong family background in dog training and agility as well as a strong interest in veterinarian medicine. I work from home most of the time and schedule is flexible. The weekend we are usually here. Will be able to take care of pets throughout the entire day. Currently, we are in an apartment with first floor access to grass. We do have a fenced dog yard across from us and a larger fenced dog park walking distance within the apartment complex. We have an 8 month Australian Shepherd who is absolutely obsessed playing with other dogs! Has never ever shown any aggression towards any dogs, large and small. If keeping your dog with us, can provide bathing.
About: I’m typically the go-to gal for friends and family when it comes to caring for pets :) I have two dogs and two cats of my own! I work part time and two miles from my job! So that means plenty of time to play with some pups... I also work nights so the majority of my day is spent at home :) I have a fenced in backyard and two dogs of my own to keep ur fur baby entertained! I also have some crates in my home if need be.

“Ashley and Jon-Ryan were a great fit for our girls. We received feedback and pictures from them letting us feel our pets were in good hands. When we picked up our dogs you could tell they felt right at home. Thank you Ashley and Jon-Ryan. We'll see with our girls soon.”
“My first experience on rover and Sarah and her family knocked it out of the park. Instantly felt comfortable and knew that my puppers was going to be in good hands. Very responsive and updated me throughout her stay daily. Very attentive and genuinely cared for my sweet girl. Highly recommend.”
“Our pups love staying with Diane and her family! I can tell by the daily photos she sends to us that they are happy and loved. Knowing that, we enjoy our vacations without worrying about them.”
“Amanda was really good not only with our dog but with us as well!Very responsive, she was sending us photos and our dog had the time of his life playing, cuddling and being in a very friendly environment. Thank you Amanda for taking care of our Nugget and for making our get away stress free!”
“Very attentive. Our old girl gave him a pretty rough first night. He took great care of her despite her being the messiest girl in the room. I would definitely recommend to take care of your furry friends.”
“Ollie and Chief loved their stay with Natalie and her family! Ollie got to play with Natalies dog Rocky and get some of his energy out. Natalie was able to take care of Chiefs senior dog needs (like his diapers!) and treated the dogs as her own. We will definitely use her again in the future since she took such great care of our fur babies!”
“Sadie has the BEST time staying here. Gabrielle was so nice, their house was very nice, and had a big back yard and pool which she loved. Easy drop off and pick up. Gabrielle sent me picture updates of my dog having so much fun and I would definitely book with her again!”
“Samantha did a great job taking care of Mia for a whole week. She was even able to feed Mia her farmers dog food three times a day. She took Mia for walks and kept her separate from much larger dogs. Mia loved her visit. She also showed us pictures of Mia throughout the day. We felt so much better during our vacation knowing Mia was in good hands.”
“We love Larissa and so do our pups! Larissa and her family have been amazing with our dogs. We have an elderly dog and a playful dog and they have been so great with both of them. Highly recommend Larissa!”
“Olivia was wonderful and took such great care of Laci. She accepted the booking request pretty last minute and was very accommodating. She sent photos and a video of my dog and I felt very comfortable leaving Laci in her care. I would definitely recommend her and would use her again in the future. Laci had a great time!”
“Brook has been fantastic for boarding my dog, Rheia. She is organized, flexible, communicative, and loving! Rheia gets excited when we turn the corner into Brook’s neighborhood. I’m sure if Rheia were reviewing, she’d give Brook 5 stars, too!”
“Rebecca and Pippa were great with my pup Harlow! She felt comfortable as soon as she met both of them. Rebecca was wonderful about being flexible with our changing travel plans and was very communicative and responsive. Would definitely recommend and use again! Thanks Rebecca and Pippa! :)”
“Cassie was very accommodating. She took wonderful care of our basset hound. If you know a basset, then you know that they are stubborn and can't be trusted. Since our dog is still in her puppy stage, she can be a handful. Cassie enjoyed having her and was willing to watch her again. I highly recommend using Cassie as your next dog sitter.”
About: One of my biggest strengths as a pet sitter is my high energy and fun loving personality. I genuinely enjoy being active, whether that means long walks and jogs or playing fetch for half an hour. Whether your pet wants to cuddle on the couch or burn off energy with playtime, I'm happy to match their pace and make sure they feel safe and happy while you're away. I'm out the door Monday- Friday from 0730 to approx. 1600. I could walk/run/feed your pets in the morning prior to then and anytime after I'm home from work. Saturday and Sunday I am very flexible :) I have two cats that I will keep upstairs to give your pet the privacy and space on the first floor when boarding. I live in a townhouse with a small front and backyard but would most likely be walking/ jogging around the block with your doggo if boarding.
“Danielle was fantastic. She communicated fast, I’m glad she was available for our last minute trip. She took such great care of Whiskey, he had a wonderful time. Will definitely book with her again 🤍”
“First time using rover and will definitely be back with this family again for whenever we leave town. Super responsive, sent a ton of pictures, and even accommodated when our plane got delayed for a day. Steven thank you to you and your family and you can let the kids know the dogs will be back again later this fall. 10/10!!”
