Highly-rated overnight sitters - Oliver
“We are so happy that we found Pam. She is amazing with our two dogs, CC and Chewy. She sent us daily photos of them, and we can see they were really enjoying themselves. Her home was perfect for the dogs, they had their own dog door to go in and out of. A very nice sized and secure backyard in a nice neighborhood. Will be using Pam again in the future and the dogs will be so happy to see her again. :)”
“Leonardo was amazing with my large breed dog, Jill, on a last-minute booking! He was super responsive, kind, and clearly great with big dogs. Jill loved him right away and came back happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Aimee was great! Very flexible with a meet and greet and drop off / pick up times. Lots of great pics and communication. I know Duncan was taken very good care of. Would rebook! Thanks Aimee!”
“Sara did a great job taking care of our large puppies. She sent about 3 pictures a day which we really enjoyed and looked forward to. She also played outside with our dogs which they loveddd. I would definitely rebook with Sara.”
About: What truly sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on experience combined with deep instinctual empathy.

I am familiar with maintaining strict medication schedules, managing low-mobility routines, and providing a calm, reassuring presence. Puppy Patience & Routine: I know how crucial consistency is for younger dogs. I will gladly reinforce your house-training rules, basic command structures, and positive behavior techniques. Anxious or Shy Dog Care: Because I understand dog behavior, I know how to give nervous pups their space to adjust, building trust gently at their own pace.

“Was great with my beagle heeler mix. Still a puppy learning all the things but he got along with her dogs and the neighbor pets. Received daily updates about how he was doing while I was away. Will be keeping her in mind for the future.”
“Words can not express how grateful I am for Marissa & Mosieo for taking care of our sweet Chyna!! They sent updates daily and communicated with us about Chyna activities each day along with pictures. Chyna love their home and they care they provided. This is our second time using their services and gets better each time. Really sweet family. We needed to extend out time being out flight was delayed and it was no problem! Very understanding! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!”
“Mrs. Jennifer and her husband were great with my CoCo. They made us feel very comfortable with the decision to leave CoCo in their care. I was impressed with the opportunity to have a meet and greet before the stay. My first experience with Rover didn't have this opportunity and I was hesitant to use Rover again but an emergency situation came up. I'm thankful that I was able to come across Mrs. Jennifer's profile. CoCo was in a safe, clean environment and it showed when they sent pictures and videos and when I picked her up she was very happy. This was not our experience with Rover before. I will definitely recommend them for your boarding needs and I'll definitely be booking again.”
“Ashley was amazing!! she took EXCELLENT care of my GiGi!! She sent pictures and information on how GiGi was doing daily. One outstanding thing about Ashley is that I had an extenuating circumstance just prior to my booking and Ashley was wonderful!! She was understanding and she worked with me which I greatly appreciated!! I absolutely HIGHLY recommend her!! She was just the best!!”
“From the pictures sent, Stella appeared to be living her best life at Chantel's place :) Great communication and it was obvious that Stella was loved and pampered. Stella says "I'll be back!"”
“Jennifer has been wonderful with our kitty! She sent us pictures every day, gave him lots of cuddles, and he really seemed to enjoy being with her. Would definitely use again!”
“Carlita continues to be consistent and such a great help with our Lewey when we have to go out of town or have important business to take care of with family. Lewey is always excited when we reach her neighborhood and pull up to the front door. When we come to pick him up, he doesn’t want to leave because he has so much fun with the other dogs in Carlita’s care. Lewey is always in good care at Carlita’s.”
“We left Pepper Poo overnight as a test for an upcoming trip. We were a little afraid that Pepper might misbehave because she was in a new environment with other people but Sarai did a fantastic job engaging her and reported that Pepper did a great job overnight!!! Thanks Sarai!!”
“After an unpleasant experience with a larger pet-care facility, we knew Brinkley needed something different—a warm, loving home environment where she would feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for. Finding Judy was just what we were hoping for. From the very beginning, she was kind, attentive, and thoughtful, giving Brinkley the same loving, personalized care she receives at home. Her genuine affection for her and attention to every detail gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Brinkley felt happy, relaxed, and right at home with her. We are so grateful to Judy for providing such exceptional, just-like-home care and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter.”
“Deanna was sooooooo awesome with Ivy. She was great and her family was awesome as well. They took very good care of my baby with my last minute booking. Thank you guys again. Can’t wait to rebook with you.”
“Hannah is amazing. We haven't left our babies over night before, but Hannah kept up dated and at ease. She took such good care of them and treated them as if they were her own. We will definitely book with Hannah again. My babies absolutely love her - we all do. :)”
“Wow! My Luna had a real pampered retreat staying with Barbara L. The pictures that Barbara shared with us showed us that Luna was really having a great time. From the meet & greet, I knew that these two would be fine. Typically, Luna will not eat the first day or two. Barbara shared a picture of Luna chowing down just a few hours after we left. I highly recommend Barbara. It is evident that she really loves animals and is extremely responsible about their safety and comfort. I will definitely reach out to Barbara to watch Luna for my next get-away.”

“This is my third booking with Kiarra in the past couple of months due to lots of summer travel. She provided daily pictures and updates as usual. During this booking, when she was concerned about the auto-feeders not dispensing food, she let me know and adjusted the camera I use to check in on the kitties at various times to the food bowl so that I would be able to verify Smokey's food was getting dispersed at the correct time. She's been great with my cats and I will continue to use her for future bookings.”
“Kayley was wonderful and took great care of our baby. She sent us pictures with updates several times a day and I could tell our girl was very happy. This was our first time using Rover and Kayley and I will definitely be using them again!”
About: I’ve always had a special love for cats and understand that every cat has their own unique personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your cat is playful and social or prefers a quiet environment and gentle attention, I will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I provide a calm, pet-friendly home where your cat can relax and receive plenty of attention, affection, and enrichment based on their individual needs. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, medication administration when needed, and recognizing signs of stress or illness. Having volunteered with animal shelters and cared for pets throughout my life, I understand the importance of patience, safety, and creating a low-stress environment. I know how much trust it takes to leave your cat in someone else’s care, and I will treat them with the same love and attention I would give my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your cat is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your feline family member!
“Skip did a great job for us. He communicated well and even sent a picture which was amazing since our cats hid from him most of the time.:) I guess they didn't understand that when Santa Claus is your sitter, you should come out and show some love if you don't want to be on the naughty list. We highly recommend Skip to anyone needing a responsible and caring pet sitter.”
“I was very pleased with Kristina's daily updates and the care she took in watching Nymphadora while I was away. She went above and beyond and even helped put the cover back on my motorcycle when she noticed it wasn't fully on. The photo updates were also nice to receive and made me laugh seeing Nymphadora peeking at the new people in her home.”
About: My first time cat sitting was with a family that had many rules and needs for their cats so I can be as hands-on or hands-off as needed. I’ve pet sat multiple cats at a time as well as families that have both cats and dogs many times.
About: I have taken care of not only the family cat all my life, but I am a momma to one 4 year old lil lady, a 4 month old menace and a 8 month old Tuxedo cat. I have experience with caring for a kitten as young as 4 weeks old and bottle feeding. Most of my friends will call me the cat whisperer, as I have rescued more than 12 cats and intend to do more. Litter boxes will be scared of me (I don’t mind cleaning them several times a day) and your cats will love me!
About: With 5 years of pet care experience, I understand that every cat has their own unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I’ve cared for cats with a variety of temperaments, from playful and affectionate companions to shy, independent kitties who prefer a little extra space. My experience includes feeding, refreshing water, scooping and maintaining litter boxes, caring for automatic feeders and water fountains, providing enrichment, and making sure each cat feels safe and comfortable in their own home. I believe in allowing cats to approach me at their own pace while providing plenty of patience, attention, and affection when they’re ready. Whether your cat loves interactive playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I make sure their individual needs are respected. I also understand how important peace of mind is for pet parents! I provide detailed updates, adorable pictures, and thoughtful communication throughout each visit so you always know how your furry family member is doing. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your cat!
“Janet is amazing! She’s so organized and kind, we loved receiving updates on our fur babies! I really felt like Janet went above and beyond for us, taking care of our home and kitties. We wholeheartedly recommend Janet for looking after your home and fur babies ❤️”

The environment is clean, cozy, and filled with opportunities for exercise and play, making dogs feel safe, loved, and stress-free during their stay. I have a fenced in yard and 2 dogs to keep your fur baby company. If your dog is not good around other animals that is no problem with them staying separate. I accommodate to your needs.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Oliver
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was around 11. Normally at that age just for close friends and family. I used to walk them and feed them and even sometimes get to bathe them. I have a dog right now and I love him with all my heart!! I absolutely love animals. I’m off on weekends Fridays, Saturday, and free Sunday between 8-11am, so I’d have plenty of time to take care of your pet! I’m available anytime through the week after 5:30pm. I take my dog for walks and potty breaks every 2-3 hours because right now he is a puppy. I would do the same for your pup, as well as play with them or let them outside to play as much as you’d like me to.
About: I have taken care of many types of dogs, doing everything from feeding to walking to giving medicine to my aunt’s senior dog. I have even worked with a sweet blind pupper too! I have an open schedule to care for your doggos during weekdays. I am also available weekend days too, if needed. Last minute needs I can accommodate too. I have 3 dogs of my own, a black lab, and two pittie mix babes. My husband’s cousin has entrusted us with the care of her pittie doggo while dealing with health issues. My aunt who lives across the street from me has me look after her two dogs when she travels out of town.
About: I’ve walked and cared for my families dogs and cats since i was young, i’ve always loved animals and having the chance to care for new pets is really fun. im currently working part time, mostly nights so i have a lot of free time during the day and afternoon. im also free every other weekend in my home, i feed my cats twice a day and make sure they are played with and loved on. And unfortunately right now, one of my cats is having tummy issues so i do know how to administer medications if needed.
About: I will be spending time with them at the dog park at my neighborhood and they will be treated like my own dog. I will love them as if they were own. I can take them for a walk every 2 hours and if you have any changes feel free to call me. I am at home all day so they will be under my supervision 24/7. I will feed them, give them their needs, take them out to use the bathroom and for a walk, and maybe take them for a run, and go to the dog park.
About: Hi, I’m Dillon! I’ve been caring for dogs for about 3 years and have built my own pet care business, Dillon’s Pet Care. I work with regular clients for walks, drop ins, and overnight care, and I really enjoy getting to know each dog and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m insured for my pet care business and take the safety of every pet I watch seriously. I’m reliable, flexible, and always make sure to follow each pet’s routine and any special instructions from their owner! I have a very flexible schedule and am available pretty much any day and time. I’m able to work around your pet’s normal routine and can provide consistent care for walks, drop ins, feeding, and overnight stays. I’ve been dog sitting for over three years now, so I’m used to being reliable, staying on schedule, and making sure every pet gets plenty of attention and care. I’m happy to work with different routines and do whatever I can to make things easy and stress free for both you and your pet! I have a large fenced in backyard where dogs can safely play, get some exercise, and enjoy some time outside. I also have two friendly dogs who are used to being around other dogs, but I always introduce everyone slowly and make sure they’re comfortable with each other. I keep a close eye on the dogs throughout the day and can separate them when needed.

I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe, and having a great time while you’re away!
About: Growing up, I had plenty of cats and dogs, both trained and untrained. I treat fur babies like literal humans, they deserve it. I love to cuddle with animals, play outside, or just be lazy together. I work for myself so I make my own schedule. Therefore, it isn’t hard for me to make arrangements to keep a pet or go and hangout. I have no fur babies as of now (mine recently passed) so you won’t have to worry about your pet being in a fight or hurt by the paws of any animal of mine. My home is on an acre of land with only one neighbor. I have a screened in back porch if the animal loves to sunbathe. I make it a priority to learn any pet I encounter.
“Leah is an amazing dog walker for Emmie! She is attentive, always receptive to what our pup needs, and as an added bonus takes great pics of her for our enjoyment! Emmie loves her!”
“Macy did a fantastic job with Daisy! Her communication was excellent, and she kept us informed so we always felt confident that Daisy was happy and well cared for. Macy is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and clearly has a genuine love for dogs. We highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve assisted my aunt during her Rover experience for two years, I’ve rescued and TNR’d neighborhood street cats for two years, and I have an 8 year old dog and a 2 year old dog back in New York! I recently moved to the area and am living with family, so my animals are not with me until I secure independent housing—they are with family that were still in my old area. I’m a full-time college student in graduate school and I work full-time, both of these commitments are virtual. This leaves me relatively free to prioritize the care your loved pets need! I currently am not offering to pet sit in my own home as I currently live with family, but when watching other peoples dogs I take the same precautions as I would with my own dogs as you can never guarantee their behavior and how they respond to situations or other people. I would ensure the environment is safe, and if we go out into the community, I would be aware of my surroundings and take every precaution as if they were my own!
About: Hi everyone! My name is Kamayla, and I’ve been taking care of dogs forever!! I am currently in nursing school, however I have a bunch of free time when I’m not in class! My family loves big dogs, so I have experience with Mastiffs, Rottweilers and Great Danes. I also had a pet hedgehog for 3 years. I currently have a Cane Corso Mastiff named Thanos and a Golden Doodle named Marley, so I can handle low and high-energy dogs. I adore them both but I want to open my arms to more furry friends! I am here to make sure you don’t worry about your pets while out of town, because they’ll be in the best hands! Pets aren’t just animals, they are family and I prioritize safety, structure and peace of mind. Please feel free to reach out about any small or large furry friends! 🐾 This is my senior year of school so I have a pretty flexible schedule! I also don’t mind tweaking my schedule to accommodate yours! My dogs have an huge back yard to play in, but I also love going on walks! Your dogs will always have my undivided attention no matter where they are.
About: I make sure your babies are well taken care of & make sure they get a lot of love & cuddles & a lot of treats. I work full time. I’m available on Tuesdays one week & I’m available on Thursdays another week & I’m off every other weekend but I’m available after 3pm on the other days. I have two animals of my own, 1 is a very spoiled cat & I have 1 big baby aka a dog that’s she thinks she’s a lap dog. I would treat others animals like I would treat mine & their going to be spoiled when I take care of other people pets.
About: I have had both cats and dogs almost my entire life and have worked as a Veterinarian Technician in an animal shelter and for a small family owned Vet. I strive to bring my knowledge and love for animals to my community so that pet care can be more affordable for regular people (such as myself). With the knowledge I have gathered from both working in office, having pets, sitting family pets, and my many years of pet grooming I hope to make my home a safe haven for your pet. We can also discuss natural treatments for pets which I've studied for a while now when it comes to specific breeds, mixed breeds, and their genetic ailments. I will soon be making all natural dog & cat treats for pets. I can also train pets through the treat/clicker system which has worked well for all of my pets and a plenty of others. If you would like for me to train them please let me know. Please contact me directly. I currently work from home and have a really flexible schedule. More than likely your pet will stay in the room with me (if they choose as i love cuddles as much as they might). Your pet can also hang out in the living room if they choose. They will go outside as many times as needed through the day until I get off at 5:30pm which then we will go for a walk. I also have a back yard. In which I will allow them to exert any additional energy throughout the day. I care for pets by paying attention to them and understanding the small hints they give indicating what they need at that time. I also create a potty schedule based on the dogs water/food intake to avoid accidents. I have no pets at the time so your pet will have my full attention. If permitted by the owner, I will groom, bathe, and train their pets.
About: Hi, I’m Alicia! Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and I love making sure every pet—dogs and cats alike—feels safe, happy, and loved. I’m Pack Pro Certified in multiple areas, as well as First Aid and CPR certified, giving me the skills and confidence to care for pets in any situation. For over a year, I’ve worked hands-on in a busy kennel, gaining experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I also have experience caring for cats and understanding their unique needs. I understand dog behavior, enrichment, and group play, and I’m trained in bathing and grooming, so I can help pets look and feel their best. I love finding ways to keep every pet engaged and comfortable—whether that’s through fun activities, relaxing walks, or extra affection. I’m also trained in administering medications, no matter the type, so pets with special needs receive the same reliable care and attention as any other. Whether your dog or cat needs a daily pill, a specialized routine, or just some extra patience, I can handle it with ease. My goal is simple: to treat every pet like my own, giving you peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work full-time at a kennel with shifting hours that can change week to week. Most of the time, I work 3-4 days a week, which leaves multiple days completely available for pet care. I’m happy to work with clients to find times that fit their needs, so your pet always gets consistent, reliable care no matter my work schedule. I provide loving, trustworthy care in clients’ homes, making pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I pay attention to their individual needs, routines, and personalities, and I’ll go above and beyond—whether it’s extra playtime, cuddles, walks, or simply keeping them company—so every pet feels loved and well cared for while their family is away.
About: I’ve worked with animals ever since I was 15. I would take care of my neighbors, friends, and clients dogs or cats. Use to work at an animal hospital and also a boarding/daycare facility. I learned from working there how to administer medications. At the moment I have a very flexible schedule therefore providing lots of options for you and your furry family members! I have always had a deep passion for animals! I have a dog and a cat at home that I adore. Both my babies are rescue pets. I enjoy working with both my dog and my cat on training them to do new things.
About: I’ve had animals my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve primarily cared for small and medium-sized dogs, but I’ve also had experience with larger dogs, including my roommate's two who were very cautious and selective about who they trusted. Somehow, they quickly decided I was one of their people! My family and friends also regularly trust me with their furry family members and often come to me for advice. I currently have a cat of my own who requires medication and has some behavioral quirks, so I’m comfortable with the extra patience, consistency, and attention that pets with special needs may require. I’ve always been the person animals seem to gravitate toward wherever I go. My mom has jokingly called me the “cat whisperer” for years, especially! I truly love getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their humans are away. I am self-employed and make my own schedule - I am very flexible so I am able to work from virtually anywhere and at any time, so fitting in any set care is very easy! I always want to make sure I earn the trust, respect, and love of the pets by being gentle, caring, and loving and showing them they can trust me. This often looks like some extra cuddles, a treat, some play time during quick drop-ins etc! There's nothing better than earning a fur baby's trust :)
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: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats in the family household my whole life, and started sitting family friends pets at a young age! I’m a part time online college student and work part time at two jobs in costumer service, so my schedule is pretty open and flexible for whatever! When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. I follow any specific instructions regarding feeding, exercise, and medications, and make sure they have a safe and stimulating environment. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship while respecting their space, and I keep pet owners updated with regular check-ins.

“Dillon is very attentive and thoughtful of your pets needs and personality. He responded quickly and sent plenty of updates and pictures to know how Hildy was doing throughout the weekend. He's got a nice big fenced yard for the dogs to play in and took Hildy for walks with his dogs as well.”
“I am glad I contacted Mr. Gregorio to take care of Brownie!!! He always kept in touch with us, sending us photos and videos!!! I am sure Brownie felt right at home!!! He took care of her and served her with great care... I definitely hope to have his availability for future occasions. Thank you, Mr. Gregorio!!! ☺️”
“Charlie had an amazing time and felt right at home at Luke’s house. His huge backyard offered the perfect space for him to run around and play in. It was also a plus Luke’s dog was there to play around and wrestle with. Luke is great and very tentative to whatever your dog’s needs are no matter how big or small. Will definitely book again in the future!”
“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.”
About: I am always working from home and usually available. I take care of my own two elder cats and my newest 2 year old 75 lb ridgeback dog. I’ve taken care of plenty of family and friends pets before too. My dog is trained and gets along with others and I also have a huge fenced in yard filled with toys. I work from home full time which gives me a lot of time to walk, play, and sit all animals. My job is not very demanding but I do have meetings throughout the day. I take safety very seriously. My two cats are dog friendly and they are elderly so they will usually stay clear of any animals besides myself and my husband. My dog is very playful and I do let her outside in my closed fenced yard. I will always supervise play and watch over them as if they were my own.
“Kelly took great care of my puppy! He had never been around other dogs and she was patient and careful to introduce him to a new environment. She communicated with me on updates and pictures which I really appreciated! We will be booking with her again for a longer stay!”
“Sarah did a WONDERFUL job taking care of our sweet Mabel. It was our first time leaving her, so we had nerves. Sarah took great care of Mabel - lots of love and attention, keeping to her schedule, frequent updates, and loving her as if she was her own. Mabel is young, and Sarah was very patient with her as she adjusted to her new environment. I would recommend Sarah to anyone.”
“Where do I start!? Milika was absolutely amazing with Daisy. I was very nervous because it was my first time using a sitter and leaving her for such an extended period of time. Milika reassured me that Daisy would okay and the way she took right to Milika said it all. Milika sent pictures and videos everyday. Milika’s children took to Daisy as well and they are so sweet. I would go to Milika every time I’m in need of a sitter for my fur baby. She’s truly an amazing and loving person. 10/10 id recommend Milika 100 million percent.”
“Nowell took amazing care of our dog this past weekend! She sent great photos and updates each day and it was clear our dog was having a blast. She has amazing communication, answers messages immediately, and is very reliable. We will absolutely be having her watch our dog every time we go out of town and highly recommend her to anyone else!”
“Staci pet-sat for my fur-baby Maggie for 2 days and I am thinking she is missing her and her family. When my husband and I picked her up, Maggie gave me a little resistance on the leash, but eventually walked towards our car. I have always been hesitant about leaving Maggie with anyone outside of our family because she has separation anxiety and can be sad when we left her in the past with other pet sitting services. I am so grateful that Staci took such good care of Maggie and gave us updates that gave me a piece of mind while away. Thank you for keeping her and obviously loving on her so much. 💜 I can’t wait for the next time she gets to go to you. -D. Recinos”
“Very resopnsive with timely communication. I had to go out of town at last minute and Danielle was able to acommandate. Koa was very happy and seemed to enjoy his stay. Will definitly be using again.”
“Tiffany is absolutely amazing! Ben had a great time and when I picked him up he kept going to her for snuggles and pets. Tiffany went above and beyond with Ben and was so professional. I will definitely try Tiffany first if I ever need hosting for Ben. 5 Star!!”
“We couldn't be happier with the care Hilary and Lucas provided for our dog, Sparta! He had an absolute blast during his stay and even made some new furry friends. It's clear they genuinely love what they do and treat every dog like their own. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our boy! We highly recommend their service to anyone seeking trustworthy and loving care for their pup.”
“Kim and John are such kind people. You can really tell they love dogs and they took amazing care of our two border collies! Every picture they sent, we could see both dogs were happily exhausted from all the playing and walks. I'm happy to say they took the time before our stay to introduce our dogs to theirs to make sure it was a good fit. And they're well informed on how to introduce dogs to each other so that they get off on the right foot. We felt more than confident leaving our dogs in their care! Thank you, Kim and John, for taking such good care of our dogs and for being so flexible when our dates and times changed!”
