Catrina took excellent care of my medically complex pup for an extended period of time. I couldn't be more grateful for the care, love, and attention she provided my dog while juggling her own family of pets! She kept me updated on how she was doing and sent me photos and videos regularly throughout her stay. Catrina was a godsend and I wouldn't hesitate to use her services again in the future! ❤️

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! ❤️

About: We offer a private alternative to traditional boarding. Dogs stay on acreage with plenty of outdoor time, but also a structured, safe environment. Each dog gets individual attention, consistency, and a calm experience—especially for dogs that don’t do well in busy kennels. Pet care is a central part of our daily routine. I work from home and spend much of my time on the property, so your dog is rarely left alone and gets consistent supervision and attention throughout the day. I keep a flexible schedule so I can provide structured outdoor time in a safe, controlled environment, along with individual care based on each dog’s needs. I also intentionally limit the number of dogs at one time, which allows me to maintain a calm, low-stress setting and give each dog the level of attention they deserve Dogs in my care are treated like part of the family. We keep a clean, calm, and comfortable home environment, and your dog will be included in that same space and routine. I follow each dog’s needs closely—whether that’s a structured routine for feeding, exercise, or any special care—so their experience feels familiar and low-stress while you’re away.

Laura went above and beyond my expectations! Due to some family scheduling issues, I contacted Laura for a last minute booking of drop in appointments with my kitten! My kitten is 7 months old and had never been left alone so I was definitely nervous! Laura was able to fit in all of our last minute needs. She left detailed reports and sent the cutest videos of my little girl while I was gone! They were very appreciated and helped calm my nerves. It is so evident that Laura loves all the animals she works with. She even did some tidying up, brought in our mail and a few additional tasks just to be kind and helpful. When we got home, our kitten was happy and well taken care of! I will continue to book with Laura whenever the need arrises! She is WONDERFUL!

Jacob was great to work with! Immediately after our meet and greet, we knew our dogs and cat would be in great hands. We have a one year old Great Dane that has a ton of energy, and Jacob made sure to take the time to play with her and tire her out. We have never seen her as tuckered out as the day after we got back! He communicated well throughout the process, and left our home like he was never there! Will definitely be using Jacob again!

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.

Hannah is absolutely wonderful! She is such a kind, caring, and dependable dog sitter, and I honestly couldn’t ask for anyone better to take care of my pups. Her communication is amazing, and she always keeps me updated, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. She is incredibly attentive to the dogs and really takes the time to make sure they’re comfortable, happy, and well cared for. She’s also so easy-going and flexible, which I appreciate more than I can say. Plans change, things come up, and Hannah is always so understanding and willing to adapt without ever making you feel like you’re a burden. Most importantly, I can tell that she genuinely loves animals and treats my dogs like they’re her own. I never have to worry when they’re with her, and that is priceless. I would recommend Hannah to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, responsible, and just genuinely wonderful to have taking care of their pets. ❤️

Cassie did a great job of keeping us updated on our pets while we were away! She provided a thorough update on their moods, health, and appetites, and took the best pictures! She even took the time to meet them beforehand and ensured we felt comfortable with her. If something looked off in the house, she advised us of that as well. We could tell that our pets were well taken care of and had gotten plenty of play time and attention. Would recommend Cassie as she obviously loves animals and cared for our pets so well!

About: I've always had an unending love for dogs. To me, they are truly God's gift to us, bringing joy, loyalty, and endless companionship. Over the years, I've had the pleasure of caring for many furry friends, ensuring they stay happy and safe while their loved ones are away. My true passion lies in making sure every pup feels loved, secure, and healthy during their time with me. Whether it's a playful romp in the park, a cozy cuddle session, or simply ensuring they have everything they need, my priority is your dog's well-being. It's safe to say that I've earned the title of the "Favorite Fur Aunt" among my clients. There's nothing more rewarding than seeing a wagging tail and knowing I've made a difference in a pet's day. I look forward to meeting your furry family members and providing them with the love and care they deserve while you're away. I am currently attending school online so I have plenty of time to care for your pups! I am available for short-notice bookings, drop-in services as well as care on the weekends. At this time I only offer services in my client's home. I have a small pooch that will come with me if it is permitted, otherwise I will keep him at home or in a separate area. The care I provide your fur babies depends on your specific request but my main goal is to keep them happy and healthy. You will also receive updates with photos and videos.

I’ve taken care of 3 elderly dogs and helped them be as comfortable as possible before dying at home. Groomed our family dogs for years. I’ve helped my dogs and others after surgery and have experience giving medication. We have a single story home with only three steps to the backyard and two to the front yard. My husband and children are wonderful at cuddling and playing with all the dogs we get to meet. We will provide the full spectrum of care needed to help your furbaby feel loved and safe while away from their own family. I’m home most of the day every day, we go on walks as a family in the morning & evening. I have a minivan available for transporting all sizes of animals. We homeschool and my husband helps whenever I need to take the kids to activities. There are very few times where we are all away from home, so we are able to give extra attention. I have a large fenced yard with chickens (in their own fenced area) and my cats are friendly and live outside the home. Our home is a single story and the only steps are three to the backyard and two to the front yard. Our garage is heated/cooled and a great space to keep large kenneled pets. Our neighborhood is quiet and has a great road for walking on.

When my AC broke in the middle of the night, I had to find last-minute daycare for my dog. I sent Clayton a message at 4 in the morning for a 730 drop off, and he replied and accepted my request within 5 mins. My dog is almost 13 and has been nervous around other dogs ever since he was attacked a few years ago. I was really hesitant about leaving him somewhere new, but Clayton’s reviews gave me confidence. And when we arrived, my dog walked in calmly and didn’t seem scared at all even with other dogs around. Clayton’s own dogs were so gentle and sweet, and mine quickly made a new best friend. Clayton stayed in touch throughout the day and sent lots of photos. My dog looked relaxed, happy, and like he was truly having fun. You can tell Clayton genuinely cares and treats your pets like his own. I won’t trust anyone else with my dog from now on.

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: 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! I offer boarding 7 days a week and pet walking and at home visits in the afternoons after 3 pm or anytime on the weekends! I have an open yard for your dogs to run or explore. Your doggos are free to lounge on my furniture or bring their own beds & blankies to sleep on. When caring for dogs at their home, I will gladly take them on however long of a walk they're used to. (I love walking, running, and hiking).

About: Hi there! I’m Z, and I’m a lifelong animal lover with a deep understanding of both cats and dogs. I’ve grown up with dogs and have a wonderful cat of my own. I also have years of experience caring for the pets of both my family and friends. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or ensuring your pet sticks to their routine, I treat every furry friend like they’re part of my own family. As someone who works part-time during the day, I have the flexibility to provide pet care in the mornings, evenings, and weekends. My schedule allows me to plan drop-in visits, walks, or playtime around your pet’s needs. Caring for animals is a natural part of my routine since I already care for my own cat. Whether it’s an early-morning visit before work or evening cuddles, I’m happy to adapt to ensure your pet feels loved and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and happy in their familiar surroundings. I stick to their established routines, whether it’s feeding schedules, playtime, or walks, to keep things consistent and comforting for them. For dogs, that might mean exciting walks or outdoor play, while cats might prefer quiet companionship or engaging with their favorite toys. I make sure their environment stays clean and safe, and I’m happy to administer medications or meet any special needs. Along with meeting their physical needs, I give plenty of cuddles and attention to help them feel secure and loved. I treat every pet like part of my own family, ensuring they’re well cared for until their owner returns.

About: I have hands on experience working at an animal shelter, where I regularly walked, handled, and cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds. Through this, I’ve worked with energetic dogs, as well as shy or anxious ones who need extra patience and care. My experience has taught me how to read dog behavior and ensure safe leashing and a calm environment. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. Pet care fits easily into not my daily routine because I currently have an open and flexible schedule this summer. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I can adjust my day to day meet to each pets needs. I do attend church on Sundays and Wednesday, but outside of those days I am highly available and committed to providing consistent and attentive care. In my home (boarding/daycare): I provide a calm, safe environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I stick to their usual feeding, walking, and sleeping schedules as closely as possible. Dog walking: during walks, I focus on safety and exercise, making sure each dogs get the right pace and level of activity for their needs. Drop ins: when visiting a clients home, I make sure pets are fed, have fresh water, get bathroom breaks, and receive attention and playtime. I also respect the home by keeping things clean and following all instructions closely. No matter the service, I provide updates and make sure each pet feels comfortable, cared for, and live while you’re away.

About: I have worked with Anna’s Angels doggy day care (4 years) & unleashed (2years). I have also had a variety of animals in my life. Animals are loving and caring, you just have to be patient with them. I have experience with grooming maintenance and health care aid as well. I treat all animals like family, Yes!! I allow all pets on my couches, bed , furniture (etc). I’m a a college student studying to get my degree in psychology. This has left me with a lot of free time. I tend to just dog sit my sisters 2 miniature pinscher‘s but I was introduced to Rover and with my love for animals I thought we’d be a great fit. Usually I’d assist with grooming, walks/play time, cleaning of feeding bowls, cages/beds area, refilling food/water or any special request that is needed at the time.

About: I am very energetic! I love to play outside with dogs. I love to play fetch and ball. I love to play in the sprinkler with dogs. I love to go on runs with dogs and make sure they are having the best time! I am always excited to play with dogs! I always make sure that they have the option to use the bathroom and always have access to water so they never get dehydrated. If they take any medicine, I make sure I have an alarm that lets me know it's time for them to take it! I always make sure that the dog feels comfortable at all times, and I always keep the owner updated to keep them comfortable and relaxed. I know your dog is your best friend, but when you can't be there with them, let me take care of them until you can! I do have base access! I have a very open schedule throughout the week and would love to play with your fur baby while you are away! So don't you worry, they will definitely get loved on until you get back! One way I ensure your baby is safe is by always going outside with them even when it's bad weather! I try to always make sure that your fur baby feels calm and safe no matter the situation. Another way I make sure they are safe is ensuring they are not in an area they are not normally allowed in alone. If we were to go on a walk or an adventure, I'd make sure they have on their collar and leash and of course send you lots of pictures while we're out!

Catrina took excellent care of my medically complex pup for an extended period of time. I couldn't be more grateful for the care, love, and attention she provided my dog while juggling her own family of pets! She kept me updated on how she was doing and sent me photos and videos regularly throughout her stay. Catrina was a godsend and I wouldn't hesitate to use her services again in the future! ❤️

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.

Jordan took such good care of my dog over the holiday long weekend. She seems to really care about the animals and she sent me photo and video updates. She also replies to messages quickly, was friendly and flexible on drop off and pickup times which I really appreciated. I would definitely use her services 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! ❤️

I have never left my dog with anyone that i wasn’t sure about. Morgan made me and my pup feel comfortable and safe. I really love the way she would keep me updated everyday that he was there. She worked around my schedule and helped me with any concerns I had. I highly recommend Morgan for your dog sitter ! 😊

Kentrice was AMAZING with my cat! She was incredibly punctual, very friendly and knowledgeable, and even her cats were so good to my cat. She sent the cutest pictures to me constantly, and communicated how my boy was doing very very often! I am for sure booking with her again in the future, she squeezed us in last minute which was amazing cause someone canceled on us!! I highly recommend her!

About: We offer a private alternative to traditional boarding. Dogs stay on acreage with plenty of outdoor time, but also a structured, safe environment. Each dog gets individual attention, consistency, and a calm experience—especially for dogs that don’t do well in busy kennels. Pet care is a central part of our daily routine. I work from home and spend much of my time on the property, so your dog is rarely left alone and gets consistent supervision and attention throughout the day. I keep a flexible schedule so I can provide structured outdoor time in a safe, controlled environment, along with individual care based on each dog’s needs. I also intentionally limit the number of dogs at one time, which allows me to maintain a calm, low-stress setting and give each dog the level of attention they deserve Dogs in my care are treated like part of the family. We keep a clean, calm, and comfortable home environment, and your dog will be included in that same space and routine. I follow each dog’s needs closely—whether that’s a structured routine for feeding, exercise, or any special care—so their experience feels familiar and low-stress while you’re away.

About: I have taken care of different kinds of pets since I was a little girl. I have had to give medicine to them. I have also taken care of young, old, and high anxiety furry friends. They deserve love and care while you’re away. I work during the week 8am-5pm Monday- Friday (sometimes I get off early on Fridays). I also work right around the corner from where I live and get a hour lunch. I can easily let them out to go potty and play with them especially after I get home. I am off on the weekends so I can definitely be with them all day then. I have a fenced in yard. I have 1 dog and 2 cats to keep your fur baby company! I also have a nice comfy crate as well as a baby gate if needed.

About: While I am new to rover I have experience with my parents senior dog and administering medications as needed, I am a proud owner of a stubborn chihuahua and my schedule is flexible to meet the individual needs of my clients. I also have base access for our military families. Before booking with me you should be aware: I can accept bookings as little as 3 days before your trip, depending on availability. I do require a meet and greet beforehand with you and your pets to make sure everyone is comfortable and that it’s a good fit. A few things to know: 🐾 All pets behavior must match what is listed on their profile. 🐾 All pets must be potty trained. 🐾 I do not take puppies or kittens. 🐾 Any medications, dietary restrictions, behavioral issues, or special care needs need to be discussed before booking and demonstrated prior to stay. I really value keeping pets on their normal routine and making sure they’re comfortable while their owners are away. If you’re interested or have questions, feel free to message me on Rover. My schedule is flexible. I am a stay at home mom and am able to schedule care into my day. If there is anything I am unable to do I will be open and honest with you. Safety is my #1 priority in my home, I have a two small kids and a small dog of my own and would need to do a meet at greet prior to establishing care. I also have a late yard for pets to stretch their legs. In your home I can play with your pets, take them on a walk, and administer medications. I would need a meet and greet with your pet to ensure safety as well.
