“Larissa M. was absolutely wonderful! They were reliable, caring, and kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My dog was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive dog sitter.”
“I had a great experience with Lanette! She took excellent care of my boy Winnie while I was out of town. She kept me updated with photos and even gave him a bath when he got dirty! Above and beyond what I expected. I felt totally at ease knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“This was our fur baby's first overnight without the presence of any family member. Marcia was very accommodating as our baby doesn't do good in confined spaces and kennel is not an option for him. After a trial visit at Marcia's house he came home and was happy which made us feel relieved. We tried doggie daycare before and he came home super anxious and seemed depressed. We will definitely use Marcia's services in the future because we love seeing our baby happy. Thank you Marcia for opening your home to our fur baby.”
“Copter had the best time staying with Amanda and her pups! I felt comfortable throughout his stay that he was well taken care of. Amanda kept us updated via messages, pictures, and videos. I know he can’t wait to visit again! Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“Glory took great care of our three corgis. She sent us updates and they always looked happy and well taken care of. She was also very accommodating with pick up and drop off times. We would definitely leave them in her care again!”
“We had to leave our 6 month old puppy for a summer vacation, I was so nervous to leave him for over a week, but Samantha was wonderful, he is full of puppy energy and loved playing with her dogs, she provided frequent updates and photos and was so flexible, Apollo had a great time and we will defiantly use her again!”
“Overall great experience booking with Alexander! We left Sadie (6 year old German shepherd) in his care for 8 days and each day we received updates and pictures. I would definitely book with again in the future.”
“Home away from home! Thanks to Kylene for providing such loving and comfortable care for our guy while we were out of town. Not only did we stay in close contact, but Kylene accommodated our drop off and pick up needs. Our guy needs meds and gentle handling and Kylene ensured he was well cared for. No doubt we will rely on Kylene’s services in the future! Love her!”
“Andrew and his family were wonderful caregivers to my two mini dachshunds. I also appreciated the flexibility with my return schedule to pick them up at my convenience , which made it so easy and lessened the stress. Thank you Andrew and family for taking such good care of my dogs 😊”
“Karen was phenomenal! She provided excellent communication throughout our dog’s stay and was incredibly attentive and caring. She treated our dog like her own, taking her on walks, car rides, and fun adventures around the community. We loved receiving regular updates, messages, and photos, which gave us peace of mind knowing she was well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend Karen to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Abigail and her family have been amazing with my 2 girls! She is super communicative and made sure she knew everything about the girls before the start date. The girls always come home happy and tired, and Abigail always sends pictures of all the fun they have. Highly recommend!”
“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care that Olivia and her husband provided for my dog. Olivia went seriously above and beyond for Kato during his stay (which was a last minute booking for Christmas too). Kato is a bigger, young bully, so he’s not always the easiest to handle. Olivia handled him with ease and treated him like her own family pet. I received pictures, they went on hikes and car rides, etc (above and beyond like I said) 💕💕 I’m so glad we found Olivia. I’ve had some bad experiences with pet sitters, but I had no anxiety or worries during this stay and that’s priceless. I would 100% recommend Olivia and her husband to everyone.”
“One of the best sitters we’ve had. Our dogs really enjoyed being in her home. I received many pictures and videos of them having a blast. 100% recommend booking her”
“Heidi is a wonderful pet sitter. Our old dog was treated very well during our week of traveling. She sent us photos and updates on a daily basis which was very comforting for us. Thank you Heidi, look forward to bringing our dog the next time.”

“So awesome and dependable! Thanks so much for the care for my flock and barn kitty. They love your visits and I love that I don’t have to worry about them while away!

“The best service I could have asked for. Exceeded expectations, sent me updates of my cats, played with them, brought in my mail, took out my trash, watered my plant, and was consistent with times he was able to show up. I look forward to working with him in the future as well! Thank you!”
“Makayla does a great job and is very flexible when it comes to schedule times to do drop ins. My dog loves her and gets plenty of playtime during the visit. Highly recommended!”
“Madison was so awesome! She was very great with pictures and was so reassuring and responsive. She went above and beyond with staying a little longer than requested and bringing treats for my kitten to try. I will absolutely be reaching out for any future needs!”
About: As a previous dog owner myself, I know that dogs love attention and playing, even sometimes just want to be held. Given that I had to give my dog away due to my profession, please allow me to take care of your dog, care for it, and love it on the days you have things going on. I'm available at night on weekdays and all day on the weekends if booked I’m advance. Also if any special requests like washing or brushing are needed, I can do those too! Anything like special food, specific acitivty time, or anything of the like apply to your pet, I'm willing to abide to give your pet the best experience yet and to give piece to your mind while you go out and have fun! I do currently work full time as a civilian on base. My schedule is normally 6am-3pm, depending on what’s needed for the pet I can try my best to adapt my schedule as need be! Currently I won’t be able to house any pets in my home, my complex doesn’t allow pet sitting for my apartment unit (dogs and cats) I’m 100% okay with being able to come by and see your pet, if you’re pet is in a enclose or cage I don’t mind looking after those as well as long as everything is provided to care for the animal (I’m thinking gerbils, hamsters, bunnies, lizards, etc.). Pet care fits into my daily or weekly routine depending on what is required from the client regarding their animal. Feedings and pet engagement are my main priority so that if I cannot stay with the animal, the animal is getting social interaction when I drop by for feedings! I do not care for clients pets in my own home however caring for clients pets in their home is strictly followed from what is given guideline wise whether there’s a set of rules a routine an hour by our breakdown - it’s followed! And as always, there’s lots of pets and lots of cuddles involved.
“Olivia and Dustin were such a sweet couple and took great care of my cat. I was updated with cute and funny pictures while I was gone which I really appreciated. Olivia was very responsive when needed. I will definitely be taking our sweet girl back whenever I go on my next trip! Thank you both so much!!”
About: What sets me apart is that I have experience caring for a variety of animals, not just dogs and cats. I currently care for 4 cats, 3 dogs, fish, a turtle, and a jumping spider, so I understand that every pet has different needs, routines, and personalities. I’m attentive to details and take the time to make sure each animal feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I’m especially patient with animals that may be nervous or take time to warm up to someone new. I’m comfortable following specific feeding schedules, medication or care instructions, cleaning routines, and providing plenty of playtime, enrichment, and attention. My goal is to care for your pets the same way I would want someone to care for mine: with patience, responsibility, and lots of love. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already spend a lot of time caring for my own animals. I’m used to keeping consistent feeding and cleaning schedules, making time for play and attention, and paying close attention to changes in their behavior or needs. I enjoy being around animals and would be happy to make caring for your pets a regular part of my day while giving them the same patience, attention, and love I give my own. I care for pets by following their normal routines and paying close attention to their individual needs, personalities, and comfort levels. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or in their own home, I make sure they receive the appropriate feeding, exercise, playtime, enrichment, and attention they’re used to. I’m comfortable following detailed instructions for feeding schedules, medications, cleaning, and other specific care needs. I also understand that some pets need time to warm up to someone new, so I’m patient and never force interaction. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away, while also respecting their home and keeping things clean and orderly.

About: I have been caring for and watching dogs since I was a young child. Unfortunately, my husband and I are not currently able to get a dog due to the uncertainty of work schedules. Therefore, I decided that there was no better place for me than rover! I would love spending the afternoon walking, playing, hiking, or running with your dog! I have plenty of space for your dog to explore outside, or take them to mini trips to the dog park or to get a pupcup! I grew up with 3 golden retrievers, but have experience caring for pitbulls, dachshunds, boxers, red heeler, pugs, etc. I am also willing to take the time to learn the specific needs of your pet and take the extra step to build a relationship with them to give them the care they need. Please read the "cat care details" to see how I would care for your kitty friends! ☺️ I currently work part time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups!

About: I have always been the one everyone goes to for animal care. Animals are driven to me. And when I come into somebody's home, the animals always sit with me or love up on me. I know how to take care of a variety of animals from dogs, cats, exotic animals, too farm animals. I have started watching pets on my own and have nothing but great reviews. I work for myself and I need a flexible schedule, as my son is autistic. He loves having animals around as well. I am a single mom and I love the fact that I can teach my son the appreciation for animals and what they bring into the home. When I am able to care for your pet in my home, they are able to socialize with my dog is well. He is very active. He is a lab pit mix. He is friendly and never had any issue with any other kind of animals. Your pet will also have more one on one care. When i do check ups at your home I'm only there for a short time and tend to get anxiety from being alone too long.
About: What sets me apart is that I actually stick to your pet’s routine and pay attention to the little things. I also don’t mind helping taking care of exotic pets because I am trying to be an Exotics/Wildlife Veterinarian and have always had a passion for exotics, so I’ll be more than happy to help! I’ve helped with puppy training like potty reinforcing basic commands, but I am always willing to learn any crate training or potty training. I’m also comfortable with senior pups and making sure they get extra patience, slower walks, or medications if needed but I will need to learn how to administer your pup’s medication. I always send updates and photos so you know your pups are happy and taken care of. Pet care fits really well into my routine since I’m mostly available in the afternoons. I usually plan my classes and responsibilities earlier in the day, so afternoons are open for walks, drop-ins, feedings, and playtime. It works out great because I can give pets my full attention without feeling rushed, and I’m able to stay consistent with their schedule. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I follow feeding and walk schedules, give them plenty of attention, and respect their personality and space. I’m also very respectful of the home and always send updates and photos so owners feel confident while they’re away.

“Liz is super. She is reliable to come when scheduled. If there are any changes, she is flexible to our needs. Communication is great; she always provides a report and photos.

I am huge on sending pictures and regular updates so you will always be informed about how your pet is doing! Dog training can be done during drop-ins or dog walks as well! Currently rover is my full time job, so I will be able to adapt/work with your schedule! I am usually always available unless there is another client booked for times/days you request. Before services start I would ask for the basic run down on your home and where all of your pets belongings are stored and what I would need for them (food, toys, treats, leashes). I may also ask for current medications or allergies and their vet numbers just in case of emergency. I will make sure to follow their schedules as closely as possible to make sure your pet is as comfortable as they can be!
About: With over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience, I provide dependable, loving, and personalized care that pets and owners can trust. My background includes caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, puppies, senior pets, high-energy breeds, and pets with unique routines or special needs. Growing up around animals and spending years working closely with them has taught me how to read pet behavior, create a calm environment, and build trust quickly. What sets me apart from other pet sitters is the genuine connection I create with every animal. I treat each pet like family not just another appointment. I focus on safety, reliability, communication, and making sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding schedules, medication administration, or overnight care, I go above and beyond to give owners peace of mind and pets the attention they deserve. I will be available all summer full time from June- August as I am a high school teacher during the year. If needed I can also continue working part time during the school year. I provide a safe, loving, and dependable environment where pets are treated like part of the family. In my home, pets receive constant supervision, structured routines, plenty of playtime, exercise, and individualized attention based on their personality and needs. Safety is always my top priority I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space, closely monitor interactions, follow feeding and medication instructions carefully, and provide regular updates so owners always feel informed and comfortable while away. As a pet owner myself with a friendly golden retriever puppy, I understand the importance of trust, patience, and proper care. My puppy is well-socialized and helps create a fun, welcoming environment for visiting pets while still respecting each animal’s comfort level and boundaries. With over 10 years of hands-on pet experience, I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and someone pet owners can truly count on for peace of mind.
About: What sets me apart is that I have experience caring for a variety of animals, not just dogs and cats. I currently care for 4 cats, 3 dogs, fish, a turtle, and a jumping spider, so I understand that every pet has different needs, routines, and personalities. I’m attentive to details and take the time to make sure each animal feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I’m especially patient with animals that may be nervous or take time to warm up to someone new. I’m comfortable following specific feeding schedules, medication or care instructions, cleaning routines, and providing plenty of playtime, enrichment, and attention. My goal is to care for your pets the same way I would want someone to care for mine: with patience, responsibility, and lots of love. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already spend a lot of time caring for my own animals. I’m used to keeping consistent feeding and cleaning schedules, making time for play and attention, and paying close attention to changes in their behavior or needs. I enjoy being around animals and would be happy to make caring for your pets a regular part of my day while giving them the same patience, attention, and love I give my own. I care for pets by following their normal routines and paying close attention to their individual needs, personalities, and comfort levels. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or in their own home, I make sure they receive the appropriate feeding, exercise, playtime, enrichment, and attention they’re used to. I’m comfortable following detailed instructions for feeding schedules, medications, cleaning, and other specific care needs. I also understand that some pets need time to warm up to someone new, so I’m patient and never force interaction. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away, while also respecting their home and keeping things clean and orderly.
About: What sets me apart is that I actually stick to your pet’s routine and pay attention to the little things. I also don’t mind helping taking care of exotic pets because I am trying to be an Exotics/Wildlife Veterinarian and have always had a passion for exotics, so I’ll be more than happy to help! I’ve helped with puppy training like potty reinforcing basic commands, but I am always willing to learn any crate training or potty training. I’m also comfortable with senior pups and making sure they get extra patience, slower walks, or medications if needed but I will need to learn how to administer your pup’s medication. I always send updates and photos so you know your pups are happy and taken care of. Pet care fits really well into my routine since I’m mostly available in the afternoons. I usually plan my classes and responsibilities earlier in the day, so afternoons are open for walks, drop-ins, feedings, and playtime. It works out great because I can give pets my full attention without feeling rushed, and I’m able to stay consistent with their schedule. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I follow feeding and walk schedules, give them plenty of attention, and respect their personality and space. I’m also very respectful of the home and always send updates and photos so owners feel confident while they’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since i’ve been alive! Growing up I have always been around animals and dogs! From bullies to dachshunds to great danes we’ve had them all. When my parents go out of town I am the one they rely on to take care of their four dogs and I have two dachshunds of my own. I also take care of my neighbors dogs when they are busy! I have potty trained, leash trained and worked on socializing them from the start! I would love to take care of other dogs the way I take care of my own! Like they are my kids! I am currently a stay at home wife that is attending college! I am open everyday of the week besides holidays and some weekends! I have school Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursday until early afternoon (2pm) so anytime after works for me! I have a fenced in small yard inside my home and I take my dogs on walks constantly! My two dogs are crate trained but if your fur baby isn’t it’s no big deal! I can take your dog on walks or make sure they have enough play time in your yard at home!
“We needed someone to walk our GSD at lunchtime for us. My daughter suggested using the Rover app. We were so lucky to have found Chloe! Hey and my fur baby hit it right off. Chloe is absolutely wonderful! Very prompt and great communication ! We appreciate all she does for us and our Jameson, we asked her to dog sit as well. She loves our fur baby and she loves her too! Thank you Chloe!!!”
About: I grew up with dogs as a kid. As an adult I’ve owned 2 dogs for a total of 4 years. The first I had for 3 years and had gotten him from a friend due to PCS. My current is a GSD that I got as an 8 week puppy who is currently over a year old that I trained myself. I currently work about 6-8 hours a day but have a short commute to work so if needed, I am able to check in on pets on a more frequent basis. I take my dog outdoors pretty frequently since he’s high energy whether it be on walks or for play in the yard. At least once a week, I take him somewhere public to work on his socialization and training with distractions. We train pretty frequently as well and have to say he does pretty well so if you’d like, I can assist in anything you’re trying to train. Disclaimer though, I’m not a professional trainer, only dogs I’ve trained are the ones I’ve owned. I live in a house with a pretty large fenced yard. I’m a big advocate for dogs getting activity, whether that’s physical like a walk or play outside or if it’s any kind of mental stimulation. My dog is crate trained and stays in his crate while I am not at home. I would prefer the same of your pet to ensure safety of your fur baby while I am away. Once I’m home, I allow my dog to free roam the house and will do the same for yours. My dog has been around several dogs and cats and is very friendly, social and playful, however, if needed, I have the ability to separate animals that don’t get along to ensure their safety. If there’s any questions on care I provide, please feel free to reach out! I’m pretty flexible and will do my best provide the care your pet is used to/needs.
About: As a Family I’ve been taking care of pets for over 40 years. We took in bunnies, parakeets, dogs, cats. Especially close to my heart are senior pets. I am retired but help out with school drop off and pick up for my grandkids and watch them when they are out of school. They are all pet lovers and respectful of pets. I have a fenced in backyard and an elderly dog who loves spending time with other dogs I also go to friends and relatives houses to take care of their pets.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is a lifetime of genuine, hands-on experience. I’ve been caring for both cats and dogs since I was five years old, giving me an instinctive understanding of their needs, personalities, and comfort cues. Over the years, I’ve also gained experience administering medications safely and confidently, whether it’s pills, drops, or special routines. With me, your pets aren’t just looked after—they’re understood, cared for, and treated like family. I am retired military with 4 of my own cats. I am available Monday through Friday, after 6pm and Saturday-Sunday 8am to 4pm. Adding more animals to my daily routine brings joy to my day. I can care for you fur babies in your home by helping them keep to their normal daily routine. I can offer plenty of attention, love, pets, cuddles and whatever else to treat them like the family they are
About: I had both dogs and cats my whole life and raised multiple kittens and puppies. I have a 2 year old golden doodle and just recently got a kitten. I have also taken care of senior pets which includes giving them medicine daily. I will take care of all ages and requirements! I am a college student with classes only on Tuesdays and Thursdays, giving me a flexible schedule to provide reliable, attentive care for your pets! I can crate train your dog and I would love to take them on walks. I know leaving your pet in a new strange place can be hard for both you and your pet, but I promise to take good care of them!

“Larissa M. was absolutely wonderful! They were reliable, caring, and kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My dog was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive dog sitter.”
“This was our fur baby's first overnight without the presence of any family member. Marcia was very accommodating as our baby doesn't do good in confined spaces and kennel is not an option for him. After a trial visit at Marcia's house he came home and was happy which made us feel relieved. We tried doggie daycare before and he came home super anxious and seemed depressed. We will definitely use Marcia's services in the future because we love seeing our baby happy. Thank you Marcia for opening your home to our fur baby.”
“Copter had the best time staying with Amanda and her pups! I felt comfortable throughout his stay that he was well taken care of. Amanda kept us updated via messages, pictures, and videos. I know he can’t wait to visit again! Highly recommend!”
“Reagan took very good care of our girls. She sent pictures and updates and responded pretty quickly when I asked about them. Her home is non smoking so I didn’t have to worry about taking them to the groomer right away. Would definitely have her dog sit for us again if she’ll have us. lol. Thank you Reagan!”
“Glory took great care of our three corgis. She sent us updates and they always looked happy and well taken care of. She was also very accommodating with pick up and drop off times. We would definitely leave them in her care again!”
“We had to leave our 6 month old puppy for a summer vacation, I was so nervous to leave him for over a week, but Samantha was wonderful, he is full of puppy energy and loved playing with her dogs, she provided frequent updates and photos and was so flexible, Apollo had a great time and we will defiantly use her again!”
“Samantha and Christopher were absolutely amazing with my two GSDs! They took such wonderful care of them, and it gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Every picture they sent showed both of my dogs looking happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which meant the world to me. My dogs have separation anxiety, so leaving them is never easy, but Samantha and Christopher made the entire experience so much less stressful. It was clear they were patient, attentive, and genuinely cared about making my pups feel safe and comfortable. I'm incredibly grateful for the love and care they gave my dogs. I wouldn't hesitate to book with them again, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, compassionate sitters. Thank you both for taking such great care of my babies! ❤️”
“Overall great experience booking with Alexander! We left Sadie (6 year old German shepherd) in his care for 8 days and each day we received updates and pictures. I would definitely book with again in the future.”
“Home away from home! Thanks to Kylene for providing such loving and comfortable care for our guy while we were out of town. Not only did we stay in close contact, but Kylene accommodated our drop off and pick up needs. Our guy needs meds and gentle handling and Kylene ensured he was well cared for. No doubt we will rely on Kylene’s services in the future! Love her!”
“Andrew and his family were wonderful caregivers to my two mini dachshunds. I also appreciated the flexibility with my return schedule to pick them up at my convenience , which made it so easy and lessened the stress. Thank you Andrew and family for taking such good care of my dogs 😊”
“Abigail and her family have been amazing with my 2 girls! She is super communicative and made sure she knew everything about the girls before the start date. The girls always come home happy and tired, and Abigail always sends pictures of all the fun they have. Highly recommend!”
“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care that Olivia and her husband provided for my dog. Olivia went seriously above and beyond for Kato during his stay (which was a last minute booking for Christmas too). Kato is a bigger, young bully, so he’s not always the easiest to handle. Olivia handled him with ease and treated him like her own family pet. I received pictures, they went on hikes and car rides, etc (above and beyond like I said) 💕💕 I’m so glad we found Olivia. I’ve had some bad experiences with pet sitters, but I had no anxiety or worries during this stay and that’s priceless. I would 100% recommend Olivia and her husband to everyone.”
“Luna had a great time staying with them for a couple days. They took great care of her and made drop off and pickup very convenient and easy for us and for Luna. Manny thanks, and highly recommended!”
“One of the best sitters we’ve had. Our dogs really enjoyed being in her home. I received many pictures and videos of them having a blast. 100% recommend booking her”
“Heidi is a wonderful pet sitter. Our old dog was treated very well during our week of traveling. She sent us photos and updates on a daily basis which was very comforting for us. Thank you Heidi, look forward to bringing our dog the next time.”
