“Danielle provided a fabulous experience for Niko while we were away. He was able to have a lot of social play with many dogs, this was very new to him and he did great! She provided daily updates with pictures and videos to keep us at ease. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend! Thanks again!”

“Kerri was amazing for us with our doodle puppy in a last minute booking. She stayed in communication with us with lots of pictures and video. Maverick was taken care of just as well as he is at our house during his stay. Can’t say enough positive about this experience, which was our first with Rover and someone outside of our family keeping our dog.”

“Mitzi and Brett were amazing caresitters for ArtyB. The photos and videos were awesome, and it gave us comfort knowing ArtyB was in such great hands. Their home was a sanctuary for him, and as soon as he arrived, he immediately took off in the yard with the other friends. Thank you Mitzi & Brett!!”

“Rajita did a great job taking care of our 2 dogs. We enjoyed seeing the pictures she sent. It was the 1st time using her services and it was an overall great experience.”

“Absolutely wonderful experience with Sayaka and her husband! They took such great care of Paco and treated him like family. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving and attentive hands. Paco came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Communication was great throughout, and I really appreciated the updates and photos. I would definitely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet care!”

“Suzanne was awesome. I would highly recommend her watching over your pets. She kept in contact with me throughout the day and sent me pictures of my puppy. I could tell that my puppy really enjoyed his time with her. She deserves 10 stars 🌟”

“Stacey did an awesome job watching our pup! I know our dog was at ease & comfortable with her which was super important to us. She would communicate with us throughout the day & send us many updates which we loved. Our dog can be a handful meeting other dogs and isn’t the best on the leash but Stacey did great with her! She gave her lots of loves and cuddles too which was so appreciated while we were away. We will absolutely be using her again in the future!!”

“Andrew was the best and Took care of my husky, and provided pictures and was very patient and also provided tons of exercise for my dog. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a dog sitter or boarder in the future.”
“Repeat client here! Scott and Heather provided excellent care for our Woody. Scott is fantastic at keeping us informed about Woody and what he’s doing. Your dog will be well taken care here!!”

“This was my first time using Rover and having my pet stay with Jeremy & his wife, and we will most certainly be return customers! I received daily updates and photos of my dog who always appeared happy and loved! When it was time for pickup, my belongs were tidy and ready to go, with our dog bed having been freshly washed! What a great experience and what a great couple who obviously love dogs and have really figured out how to be gracious, clean, and loving dog watchers!”

“Rene took such good care of our sweet pup Archie while we went away for the weekend in the mountains. She sent pictures, videos and updates daily. She spent time snuggling him at night and making sure he had playtime during the day. I felt very reassured and was able to relax and have fun while away. She will be my go-to for future trips!”

“We could tell that our girl was in GREAT hands! She sent daily pictures and videos and was so good with our dog! We will definitely be using her again! Thanks so much for putting our mind at ease this trip and taking the best care of her!!! We appreciate it SO much!!”

“Zach and family did such a great job with our golden doodle. This is the first time we had left our dog with anyone else, and we would not hesitate to do it again with Zach. Our dog Baker Blu enjoyed daily walks and a lot of playtime with Zac’s dog Millie. In fact, I think Baker Blu was a little depressed when he came back home for the first couple of days because he missed Millie so much. Thanks Zach, appreciate you taking such good care of Baker Blu while we were away.”

“I have a problem pup that I didn’t initially know was going to be a problem. Paige did a wonderful job working with my skittish female shepherd, keep her safe and loved until I got back home! She even checked up on my chickens for me while I was gone! 10/10 would recommend.”

“Vanessa was amazing!! We got our puppy a few days before a previously scheduled trip and ended up reaching out to her a couple days beforehand. She was very flexible and had no problem with our puppy who is still working on potty and leash training. She sent us many updates and pictures and it gave us such a piece of mind knowing our girl was happy and safe. Her house is a bit of a drive from where we live, but we would definitely use her again!! Thank you Vanessa!”

“THE most WONDERFUL team of pet sitters EVER!!! The care, attention to detail, follow up, professionalism, the pictures , videos and the love the family has shown, their job and with their furry clients are just a few shining examples of her superior work ethic. My dog actions expressed he was very happy there.”

“Jennifer has been amazing to work with. She is very professional, and really cares for your animals. Jennifer keeps you up to date on anything related to the visit, good or bad. Several times one of my ill cats hasn't been feeling well during the visit, and Jennifer was able to let me know so that we can tend to her as needed. I highly recommend Jennifer for any and all of your animals' needs.”

“Olivia did a great job taking care of our gang and we look forward to using her again in the future. Great with dogs and cats alike. My dog, Lyla is usually skittish with new people but she went right up to Olivia and felt comfortable right away which is very important”
About: I have had dogs my whole life ranging from 175 to 50 pounds. My family also breeds dogs so I’m comfortable with all ages. I have dog sat for numerous family and friends and love all animals so your pet will get treated as if they were my own. I’ve also took care of dogs that take medication, are on special diets. I have a full time job but I make my own schedule so I will base that off of my schedule with rover. Pets will be well taken care of and took on walks. If your pet is more laid back and likes to lay around all day then we will do that. If your pet has a lot of energy and like to run the we can do that as well. I have plenty of yard for your pet/pets to play. I currently don’t have any other animals in the house and am waiting for my puppy to be born! Your pet will be allowed on furniture unless that is a rule you have then I will not go against it. I have plenty of toys, dog beds, and crates if needed.
About: I've taken care of my own pets and many of the pets of family, friends, and neighbors for over twenty years. I also have a service dog who I've trained mostly on my own, with refinement help from a professional, so you can feel confident that your fur family will receive exceptional care and attention from a patient and knowledgeable handler. I have an open and flexible schedule every day of the week, so it shouldn't be difficult to match what you need for your pet(s)! I have a 4yo poodle service dog who would only need to be with me for overnight stays or if your dog(s) would like a mid day playmate. He's incredibly sociable and energetic when off duty. Either together or solo, I will make sure to follow any routines or specific instructions we discuss and care for your fur family as if they were my own.

“She has been my go to sitter several times now. My cats who can be shy have warmed up to her overtime. I get lots of pictures which always eases my mind. Highly recommend.”

“Jeneen did a wonderful job with my cat. He tends to be very shy around new people but he seem to really take to Jeneen. She is very reliable and was very good about following instructions. Everyday I was gone she sent me pictures and video of my baby.”


About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud cat owner who understands that every cat has their own unique personality and routine. Whether your cat loves to play, cuddle, or simply enjoys quiet companionship, I’ll provide patient, attentive care while you’re away. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, playtime if they want it, and plenty of love and attention.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, up to three at a time. Over the years I’ve taken in many rescues and fostered dogs from time to time — big or small, young or old it doesn’t matter to me. I’ve also had cats throughout my life. Simply put, I’m an animal lover. Right now I have two dogs of my own, River and Bruiser (an 85lb beauceron and a 35lb true mutt, both rescues, who have traveled cross country with me. They hike, camp and swim but mostly love cuddles. I’m experienced giving medications when needed — oral meds, ear drops, you name it — and I’ve helped several dogs recover post-surgery. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, behaviors and sizes. I’m active and outgoing, so I love taking dogs for long walks. I work from home, so as long as there’s Wi-Fi, I’m happy to house-sit and hang out with your dogs or cats while I work. I’m also available for quick drop-in visits — walks, feeding, water, play, fetch, whatever’s needed. Flexible scheduling works fine for me. I work from home full time so I’m here with them all day. We typically go for three walks a day in addition to play time in the yard and most importantly lots of belly rubs and cuddles. I have a fenced yard where we play fetch, take the sun and play in the sprinklers. Dogs have free reign and are allowed on couches and beds.

“Kimberly is just outstanding, she cared for my family which are three very interesting kitties. She sent updates, photos, as well as status. I trust Kimberly with my furry kitties as well as my home.”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs since my early teens. I have a strong passion for dogs and love to care for them. I am very accustomed to dogs with behavior issues and bad anxiety because my own dog struggles with that. I can also handle both small and large dogs. I love taking my dogs on walks and also occasionally will find an easy trail to hike on with them. I would love to bring your dogs on nearby trails or stick to easy walks based on the dogs energy levels. I do stay overnight and house sit if requested. I’m currently working part time (short hours 2 days a week) so i’ll have plenty of time to play with and look after your pups! I unfortunately cannot care for your dogs at my own home because one of my dogs is not friendly towards other dogs, but I am more than happy to watch your dogs at your home! I can stay overnight with your dog if requested.
About: I own two dogs and have pet sit for neighbors, friends, and family. I also previously started my own pet sitting business. I currently work at a pet resort/doggy daycare facility. I have experience with walking, feeding, providing care, and anything else you might want for your pet. I’m currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pups! During the week I can provide any service needed. I will set up a meet and greet before completely booking any service for first time clients. This way your pet can be as comfortable as possible with me and to discuss any details or concerns you might have. When caring for your fur baby in your home I will follow any routines you might have while also keeping them happy & entertained. Your pup is my #1 priority!
“Ashley took exceptional care of our cats while we were away and went above and beyond our expectations. Will definitely recommend her and reuse her services if ever need them again.”

He is a very high energy dog and her kids and dogs she has always tired him out. Cannot recommend her enough!”

I am the right home away from home for your pup if he/she loves being around attentive, nurturing family with children. I am a homeschool mom of three children, aged 6, 9, and 11. As a homeschool mom, I am home a large majority of the time. I am available and present weekdays and weekends to care for and spend quality time with your pup! Any pup in our home will be well-loved, played with, cuddled, and attended to in a kind, gentle way! While I am home, your pup will be able to freely wander our downstairs area and screened in porch. At bedtime and when I have to leave the house, I will crate your pup. I have a large yard and a great neighborhood to walk your dog frequently. I have a screened in porch for your pup to lounge in on beautiful days and a large downstairs area to ensure your dog has a comfortable place to stay and an indoor place to play ball and snuggle. I can accommodate small and medium dogs who are crate-trained. For fully-potty trained dogs, I have a downstairs area that I can safely accommodate smaller pups who are not crate-trained.

“WE had our first experience using Rover . We were extremely satisfied. Our dogs had a meet and greet previously. This was their first stay. They were very excited when we got there. We got pictures during the day. We have booked with them again for a longer stay. We will be very comfortable leaving our dogs there for an extended stay. We felt like Jeff and Sonia were very involved with the dogs and this wasn't a side job.. which was comforting. Highly Recommend”

“Eden was just what we needed to help cover a gap in our schedules. Our dog Carson is strong-willed and strong bodied at 40lbs of solid muscle. Eden had no problem handling both aspects. Carson walked further for longer and put herself straight to bed from exhaustion every night. She truly enjoyed her walks with Eden almost more than she enjoys walking with us! That speaks volumes for Eden’s care and skill in giving our girl the quality exploration and exercise time she needs. Will definitely use Eden again for future needs.”

About: I have helped take care of my own cats and dogs and have been trusted by multiple neighbors and friends for overnights and long weekends, including one dog with special medication and care needs. I am completing my bachelors degree online which allows me a very flexible schedule at this time. I am willing to do daily and will consider extended care if needed. I enjoy playing, cuddling, giving praise and love. I also like taking dogs for walks or playing in the back yard. Cats are a little harder to play with, but I try with the cat toys, and if that does not work, I will just sit and cuddle.
About: While your pets are in my care, they will be treated as if they were my own. I will assist you in training your puppy to master the basic commands: sit, stay, and come. I am retired so your pet care is my first responsibility. During the summer, I will walk in the morning with potty breaks in the afternoon if it's too hot. During winter, if the weather doesn't permit driving, I will contact you and ensure that as soon as I can drive, I will be there to give your pet much-needed potty breaks and playtime. For more detailed availability, please see my public calendar https://calendar.app.google/1EpS26QNofEFAmsH7 Your pet's safety is my #1 concern. With that in mind, I will only walk when the weather permits. I will give them time to take care of their business and plenty of play time when the weather does not permit a walk.

About: I’ve taken care of puppies, older dogs, and cats for 4 years now. I love and care for each animal as if they are my own because I know how important a pet is to their family. I also respect all the rules given by their owners and make sure I’m following exact instructions. I also volunteered on a farm for a while as a young child and grew up taking care of my family’s chickens so animal care is something that has always been a part of my life. I am just graduated from school and getting my priorities straight so I have a very flexible schedule. When I’m working other jobs, they’re in the evenings and in my control as for scheduling and time so if there are specific needs for your pets around certain times, I can accommodate. I pet sit and homes and follow all rules that are given for me. I treat your space and your pets space with full respect and make sure I take care of it even better than my own space.

About: Friends and family can always depend on me to watch their fur-babies. I've worked as a veterinarian assistant in several clinics since high school.

From working in a shelter to hanging out with your pet on the sofa, I’m an experienced, reliable pet care-giver you can count on. My background in shelter/clinic work allows me to create safe and fun memories with your pet.

“Kerri was amazing for us with our doodle puppy in a last minute booking. She stayed in communication with us with lots of pictures and video. Maverick was taken care of just as well as he is at our house during his stay. Can’t say enough positive about this experience, which was our first with Rover and someone outside of our family keeping our dog.”

“Absolutely wonderful experience with Sayaka and her husband! They took such great care of Paco and treated him like family. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving and attentive hands. Paco came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Communication was great throughout, and I really appreciated the updates and photos. I would definitely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet care!”

“Andrew was the best and Took care of my husky, and provided pictures and was very patient and also provided tons of exercise for my dog. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a dog sitter or boarder in the future.”
“Repeat client here! Scott and Heather provided excellent care for our Woody. Scott is fantastic at keeping us informed about Woody and what he’s doing. Your dog will be well taken care here!!”

“This was my first time using Rover and having my pet stay with Jeremy & his wife, and we will most certainly be return customers! I received daily updates and photos of my dog who always appeared happy and loved! When it was time for pickup, my belongs were tidy and ready to go, with our dog bed having been freshly washed! What a great experience and what a great couple who obviously love dogs and have really figured out how to be gracious, clean, and loving dog watchers!”

“We could tell that our girl was in GREAT hands! She sent daily pictures and videos and was so good with our dog! We will definitely be using her again! Thanks so much for putting our mind at ease this trip and taking the best care of her!!! We appreciate it SO much!!”

“Zach and family did such a great job with our golden doodle. This is the first time we had left our dog with anyone else, and we would not hesitate to do it again with Zach. Our dog Baker Blu enjoyed daily walks and a lot of playtime with Zac’s dog Millie. In fact, I think Baker Blu was a little depressed when he came back home for the first couple of days because he missed Millie so much. Thanks Zach, appreciate you taking such good care of Baker Blu while we were away.”

“Vanessa was amazing!! We got our puppy a few days before a previously scheduled trip and ended up reaching out to her a couple days beforehand. She was very flexible and had no problem with our puppy who is still working on potty and leash training. She sent us many updates and pictures and it gave us such a piece of mind knowing our girl was happy and safe. Her house is a bit of a drive from where we live, but we would definitely use her again!! Thank you Vanessa!”

“Brian was ABSOLUTELY fantastic! I could not be anymore thankful for finding someone to cat sit for my Rose. He was extremely loving, caring, and attentive to her while making sure she was comfortable and adjusted. I will definitely be reaching out to him again for future visits to watch Rose and recommend him to anyone!”

“Milika was great with my pup. She sent daily pictures and even some videos. She spoiled my pup and you could tell in the videos that he really enjoyed spending time with her. I would recommend her services.”


“I really appreciated Sony's focus on keeping the dogs calm from the first meet-and-greet to when I picked them up after their stay. Drop-off and pickup were super streamlined so that the dogs aren't all nervous and I could easily get the dogs in and then bring their supplies in separately. Great experience, she will be my go-to from now on!”

“Monica was amazing! Very kind and flexible. I made mistakes and on top of that we ran into traffic on way back that wasn’t expected. Never once did we feel like she wouldn’t understand or made to feel bad. We could tell from our our pup was all day today that he was very active with Monica. We will definitely use her again next time we need to find somewhere safe where he will receive the love he is use to receiving from our family.”


“Hanna treated my senior pug like family. She sent multiple pictures and videos each day to keep me updated on his day to day activities while I was travelling for work. I have since rebooked with Hanna twice for a total of about 5 weeks and would recommend her to anyone looking for an attentive, responsive dog sitter.”

“Banjo had a great time at Melissa’s; she sent photos and updates everyday and drop off/pick up was super easy. I will definitely use her again anytime I need a pet sitter!”

“This was our first time using Rover.com and we started with a great sitter. We had a lovely experience with Luis. Josie was well taken care of and appeared to enjoy her time in his care. He kept us updated with text and pictures. Also, Josie is a picky eater, but Luis was persistent in following my instructions on how to get her to eat. She was walked twice a day and had a great time playing with a puppy that was also in Luis' care. I will use him again in the future and plan to recommend him to others.”

“Elizabeth was fantastic! She responded quickly to my request and took my goldendoodle into her home and cared for her like her own. My dog was immediately comfortable with her and she took amazing care of my dog including giving my dog some care for her ears that she noticed were bothering her shortly after I had dropped her off. She provided several pictures a day and texts to kept me very well informed of the status while out of the country! My dog was clearly happy and made to feel at home in her house and I would very highly recommend Elizabeth to care for your dog if you need someone that you can trust! I will definitely be looking to have her watch Skye on future trips knowing she is in caring, amazing hands!!!! A+++++++++++++. -Bill”
