“Ellie was very friendly and seemed knowledgeable about dogs. A good home and yard for dogs. I feel very comfortable about taking Molly there for our next trip. I hope they are available the next time we need card for our elderly dog.”

“This is the first time using Rover, or anyone we don’t personally know. Holly was amazing in all aspects! Welcoming, helpful, accommodating, caring, detail oriented, and understanding. The many pictures and updates she sent were reassuring of the obvious quality of care she and her family were providing.”


“Our dog Niki’s stay with Elizabeth and Nick went very well. It was her first stay with them and her first occasion to spend a night without us. As a dog trainer, Elizabeth is very in tune with dogs and did a great job communicating about how Niki did during and after the stay. She was returned to us calm, clean, and smelling good. We will definitely use them again.”

“Lutisa took such amazing care of my sweet girl! She kept me updated every day! She made my first Rover experience amazing. Thank you so much for everything! You definitely have a repeat client with us!”

“Pat was kind, caring, and took exceptional care of my senior dog. I felt completely comfortable leaving Lucy in her care. Will certainly use her again! Her assistant, Ryder, is a bonus, too, as he provides additional love!”

“Miss terry is adorable, sweet lady, I will give to her 5 star 🌟!! Definitely I will book Again and again with her!! Thanks so much for take care of sunshine as her own baby fur 😍bless your heart!!”

“Jenna and Shane were wonderful to work with! They were happy to set up a meet and greet, which made me feel at ease about leaving Rosie with a new sitter. Throughout the long weekend, they kept us updated with great communication and adorable pictures. We were especially grateful that they accommodated a late pickup, as we couldn’t wait to reunite with our pup. We’re so glad to have found a great new sitter.”

“Muggsy had another great stay with Rachael over the weekend! Rachael is always communicating with us with questions or sending us cute pictures and giving us updates. She is so accommodating and we know Muggsy loves his visits there! We know he is well taken care of every time we book with Rachael. So appreciative of the care and love she gives to our pup!”

“Kaitlyn was great with my girls! One of them has complicated feeding instructions and several medications, and she handled it like a pro! She sent updates at least daily, but sometimes more than once a day. She was awesome and I felt so comfortable leaving my girls with her! Thank you, Kaitlyn!”
“Wonderful experience, great communication. Our quirky little Bugg had a blast and came home happy, healthy, and well exercised. It was our first time leaving him with non-family and Amber & boys put our minds at ease. Highly recommend!”

“Koya's experience at Christopher's was excellent, he gave me peace of mind with constant updates about her. He's very kind and caring. I will definitely use his service when available. Extremely recommended. Thanks Christopher!”

“We found the perfect person to watch our Gracie. MARILBEL was accommodating, sweet, and a natural dog lover. Along with her dog, Molly, Maribel gave Gracie a wonderful few days. We had tried our vet's kennel and even the "luxury" pet kennels, but our dog is a "people" dog, and was definitely traumatized by those places, and it took days for her to get back to our normal dog. Putting my dog in a cage for days is NOT what we wanted. But Maribel was our answer. She loved on Gracie, played with her, texted us with pictures, and when we picked her up, she was not traumatized. She was her happy, normal dog self. We are grateful for Maribel and highly recommend her.”

About: I have always had at least one cat in my household while growing up. In the picture is my sweet girl "Smudge," who I have taken care of since she was about 10 weeks old and she is my everything. I have experience from working at a doggy daycare/boarding facility where we also took care of cats.

About: I personally haven’t ever owned my own cats but my sister and friends have. Everyone my sister goes out of town I will go and feed her cats and play with them for a little bit and spend time with them. I also always go over and take care of my aunts cats whenever she’s out of town. Just recently, my friend found 3 week old baby kittens under her house and we helped take care of them and helped give them milk since they were so little.

About: Hi there! I’ve been pet-sitting since I was 15 and have had the pleasure of caring for a wide variety of animals. Pet owners have trusted me with rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, as well as cats and dogs of all sizes. I’m experienced with pets from energetic 6-month-olds to senior companions up to 19 years old. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I always strive to provide attentive, loving care so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

“McKenna was great! We had to go out of town on short notice and McKenna was able to squeeze us in and took wonderful care of our cats. One of our cats is very friendly but the other is slower to warm up to strangers. She was sensitive to the differences in their personalities and was able to get our shy cat to warm up to her quite a bit in the few days we were gone. We will absolutely ask McKenna first the next time we have to go out of town!”

“I’ve used several people from Rover and Jordan is one of my favorites! She is punctual and sends great updates when I’m away so I’m reassured that my dogs are happy and in good care.”


“We are so grateful we found Irina to take care of our cats while we were gone. She kept us updated as they took a little time to warm up and sent us fun pictures of them daily. The cats clearly enjoyed their time with her and one of them even cried when we got in the car to leave! We loved knowing they were in great hands. Thank you Irina!”

“Such a sweet soul! Cared for my babies like her own which I deeply appreciate! Despite my kitties being shy, I know they appreciated everything she provided for them! I know I did! Will book again! 💗💗”

“Jenna and Shane are fantastic! My pup can be particular about who he vibes with as he’s a bit of an anxious boy. He immediately loved them and got along with their dogs. We will definitely continue to use Jenna and Shane!”

About: I can’t remember a time in my life that I didn’t have a dog (or two). Big dogs, little dogs and in between. Now that I am retired, I devote most of my time to caring for my two “baby girls”. Daisy & Bella are litter sisters although they don’t look a like. They are Teddy Bear/Schicons (1/2 Bichon Frise and 1/2 Shih Tzu). They are inseparable, looking out for each other or wrestling together, where there’s one there is the other. They do play well with others. My sister’s little girl is a Shih Tzu and she is an only child, we laugh and call her the Princess. I sit for her for a week or long weekends when my sister visits her daughter out of town. She also comes over for play dates. They all respect each other’s boundaries and the Princess has learned to play with “the Court Jesters”. My dogs and visitors are allowed on furniture and beds. My yard is not fenced, but I do have a radio frequency collar system that I can use or walk on leash per owner’s preference. I live a long way from the road so it is safe. We go on golf cart rides around the property in the afternoon, my girls look forward to it. I am retired, so unless I have a doctor appointment or go grocery shopping, I am home 100% of the time. I do go to church on Sunday morning. My girls have the run of our home but I can use a crate if owner desires. I will treat your fur baby like I do my own. They are my #1 priority, always. They have a feeding schedule twice daily with a few treats throughout the day. They get lots of love and snuggles to their satisfaction. I encourage them to play with toys inside interacting with each other and myself. They will get plenty of exercise indoors and outdoors. I refreshed their water several times daily.
About: Hi! My name is Rebecca, and I’ve worked professionally with dogs for over 15 years as a dog groomer and pet care provider. Caring for animals has always been my passion, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I currently offer overnight and daycare services, in a safe, loving, and low stress environment. Whether your pet needs playtime, walks, cuddles, feeding, medication reminders, potty breaks, or simply companionship while you’re away, I make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for like family in my home. Because of my grooming background, I’m experienced handling dogs of all sizes, ages, breeds, and personalities including senior dogs, anxious pets, and dogs with special care needs. Safety, cleanliness, patience, and positive interaction are always my top priorities. I work around animals full-time, which allows me to spend a significant amount of time with the pets in my care throughout the day. I’m flexible with scheduling and committed to providing dependable communication, updates, and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away. I know every pet is unique, and I love getting to know their personalities and routines to help them feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I work from home and run my own pet care business, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they need, whether it’s weekday cuddles, weekend playtime, or just making sure they feel safe and loved throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. While I don’t have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is strictly supervised and leashed, no exceptions. I provide plenty of potty breaks, structured walks, and engaging indoor play in a clean, cozy, and calm home setting.
“Jessica was incredible. We had a very last minute need and she was responsive, confident and we felt from the beginning that there wasn't a situation that she couldn't handle when it came to our dog. He can be a little anxiously attached and she didn't bat an eye. She was a godsend when we needed one!”

About: We have had many different types of pets over the years and understand the worry of having someone care for your pets while you are away. We are here to help with that worry by providing your pet a loving, fun and safe environment while you are away. Our family consist of my husband, a son in college and a daughter in high school and myself. We have a 13 year old Beagle/Terrier mix who is mostly interested in chasing squirrels and naps. We have recently rescued a kitten who is a fire cracker and provides a lot of interaction and entertainment for other cats and dogs who engages with her. I am home full time and when the children are home both enjoy caring and playing with the pets in our care. Being home allows me to have eyes on your pets and be readily available and responsive. We are well off the beaten path with lots of yard to roam and other barn yard pets. We have a small farm with an area fenced for our dogs as well as a fenced pasture for our farm animals. We also can accommodate crates for those pets that prefer the safety of their known space. Your pet with be a part of our tribe when they are here and will be safe and have a great time. I welcome frequent contact and am very responsive to each pet and their owners needs. Your pet will get the highest level of care here on the farm.
“Lutisa was very helpful in that I needed a sitter ASAP, and she agreed to take my Myra. I was so appreciative that I didn't have to leave her alone for many hours. She took very good care of her.”

“Stephanie is a fantastic sitter! She has kept my nine-year-old Maltipoo, Happy, several times. Each time, Stephanie went above and beyond to accommodate my needs and to ensure that Happy felt right at home. Even her poodle, Sammy, was the perfect "little host' and is now Happy's new BFF. The photo updates that Stephanie sent me throughout the day always brought smiles to my face as I could see how much Happy was enjoying himself as he and Sammy explored her lovely fenced backyard or sat together staring outside. I am so pleased to have found such a wonderful and safe "home away from home" for my little fur baby.”

About: Owned cats for over 35 and dogs for over 25 years. Have administered medication as well as brought sick/injured back to health. Familiar with various diet needs/restrictions. A lover of all breeds, I bond quickly with all animals (including the timid or mistrusting), due to my love for and patience with them. Will take time to play, walk and hang with them. Experience with crating, potty training and teething, and other behavioral training. I recently went back to college to complete my BA and now job hunting, so my availability is wide open. I am flexible and having my own three dogs, get up early and am used to letting them out early morning/late night. I can get to your home as early as 6 am and make my final visit as late as 9 pm. I can provide care in the owners or my home, as well as take them for walks (if owner agrees) and/or play in their home and yard with them. I will love on and treat your babies as I would my own. I do not believe in just feeding and letting out without also providing affection and play time, unless the owner strictly requests I do. My schedule is currently open. I am also working for an events venue part time. Connecting with and caring for animals is a pleasure for me and how I choose to spend a lot of my free time. I have a large fenced in yard for running and playing and three large crates and a small one, for those that feel they need that safe space. I also have a 15 x 15 pen outside if I need to keep any separate from each other. I also have four baby gates so I can rotate the room they are in without having to crate those that want to roam but don't get along with others well. I have cautiously and patiently introduced many animals to each other and also know that just like people, some get along with certain animals but not others.

“I can’t say enough great things about Morgan! She responded promptly to my last-minute dog walking request and went above and beyond from the start. She even made time to meet us before I left town, which gave me so much peace of mind—and my dog Miah, a 50lb mixed breed and 100% cutie, took to her immediately! Throughout the entire service period, Morgan was communicative, reliable, and always on time. Her updates were thoughtful and reassuring, and it was clear she genuinely cared for Miah. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such capable and loving hands. I will absolutely reach out to Morgan again for any future pet care needs. She’s a true gem!”

About: I’ve owned dogs and cats my entire life as well as smaller caged animals. I grew up with rottweilers and english mastiffs, so no dog is too big.

About: I’ve grown up with childhood dogs of all kinds from tiny chihuahuas and mini labradoodles to big breeds like Saint Bernards. I’ve learned that every dog is different, and their care really depends on their breed, personality, and routine. I’ve helped care for my siblings’ pets, looked after cats and dogs for neighbors, and I’m confident handling different energy levels, sizes, and needs. I’m also a runner, so I love taking active dogs on longer walks, but I’m just as happy keeping older or more anxious pets company and making sure they feel safe and calm. I have plenty of flexibility throughout the week. I’m usually available for dog walks or check ins in the mornings, late afternoons, or early evenings, depending on the day. I’m great at keeping a routine and following instructions closely, and I’ll always make sure your pet is cared for on time. I always aim for safety and a trusting relationship with my pet owners. As so, I want to give full clarity that I recently moved into an apartment complex that does not allow pets in or about the premises. For any doggy day care needs, I would love to take your pets to a local park or walking trail for their socialization, exercise and mental stimulation. Please communicate if this arrangement will work for you and under what other conditions you would feel most comfortable.

I'm also happy to provide daily check-ins with you regarding your pet! If you need someone detail-oriented, attentive, and respectful of your pet's boundaries, then I'm here for you. I work part time and I can make my own schedule, so I have plenty of time to either drop in to take care of your pets, or stay in your home with them! I'm happy to follow any instructions you leave regarding your pet's safety. If you need to ensure that child protective locks are always in place or that you dog gets crated at the end of the day, I can guarantee that will happen. I'm also very cautious of little escape artists, and will be sure that your pets are securely in your home as I'm leaving and entering.
About: With over a decade of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels, I bring a calm, confident presence that pets (and their owners) can trust. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime in the yard, or overnight pet sitting, I treat every dog like my own—with patience, love, and lots of belly rubs! I’ve worked with senior pups, energetic puppies, and everything in between. You can count on me for reliable care, daily updates, and a happy, wagging tail at the end of the day. My job is extremely flexible—I mostly work from home and have the freedom to take frequent breaks throughout the day. That means I can easily fit in walks, playtime, feedings, and check-ins without any disruption to your pet’s routine. Whether it’s a midday stroll or some extra attention during the day, I’m able to give pets the consistent care and companionship they need. Having animals around actually makes my day better, and I love incorporating pet care into my daily schedule! I focus on maintaining their normal routine in a familiar environment. I follow your instructions closely—whether it's feeding schedules, medication, walk times, or bedtime routines—to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I treat every home with respect, keeping things tidy and secure, and making sure your pet gets plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. From morning walks to nighttime snuggles, I’m there to provide consistent care and keep your pet’s stress to a minimum. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that everything is going smoothly.
About: I have cared for all different types of animals since I was 7 years old. I have a solid background in behavioral psychology, dealing with challenging behavior, and training puppies. I love every minute that I get to spend with animals! My schedule is pretty flexible and I am happy to work with you. I will do my very best to accommodate you and your pet. The health and safety of your pet is my number one priority. I will also maintain their routine, environment, and preferences so they are happy and comfortable!

“Kylo really enjoyed his time and seemed to just fit right in at Stephanie&Matthews home. it was such an easy drop off and pick up:) also appreciated the update pictures on all the days we were gone.”

“This is the first time using Rover, or anyone we don’t personally know. Holly was amazing in all aspects! Welcoming, helpful, accommodating, caring, detail oriented, and understanding. The many pictures and updates she sent were reassuring of the obvious quality of care she and her family were providing.”


“Our dog Niki’s stay with Elizabeth and Nick went very well. It was her first stay with them and her first occasion to spend a night without us. As a dog trainer, Elizabeth is very in tune with dogs and did a great job communicating about how Niki did during and after the stay. She was returned to us calm, clean, and smelling good. We will definitely use them again.”

“Miss terry is adorable, sweet lady, I will give to her 5 star 🌟!! Definitely I will book Again and again with her!! Thanks so much for take care of sunshine as her own baby fur 😍bless your heart!!”

“Jenna and Shane were wonderful to work with! They were happy to set up a meet and greet, which made me feel at ease about leaving Rosie with a new sitter. Throughout the long weekend, they kept us updated with great communication and adorable pictures. We were especially grateful that they accommodated a late pickup, as we couldn’t wait to reunite with our pup. We’re so glad to have found a great new sitter.”

“Muggsy had another great stay with Rachael over the weekend! Rachael is always communicating with us with questions or sending us cute pictures and giving us updates. She is so accommodating and we know Muggsy loves his visits there! We know he is well taken care of every time we book with Rachael. So appreciative of the care and love she gives to our pup!”

“Kaitlyn was great with my girls! One of them has complicated feeding instructions and several medications, and she handled it like a pro! She sent updates at least daily, but sometimes more than once a day. She was awesome and I felt so comfortable leaving my girls with her! Thank you, Kaitlyn!”
“Tina was amazing with our pups! She was incredibly communicative, both prompt in her responses before booking and went above and beyond in providing regular updates about how they were doing under her care. Thank you, Tina!”

“Koya's experience at Christopher's was excellent, he gave me peace of mind with constant updates about her. He's very kind and caring. I will definitely use his service when available. Extremely recommended. Thanks Christopher!”

“We found the perfect person to watch our Gracie. MARILBEL was accommodating, sweet, and a natural dog lover. Along with her dog, Molly, Maribel gave Gracie a wonderful few days. We had tried our vet's kennel and even the "luxury" pet kennels, but our dog is a "people" dog, and was definitely traumatized by those places, and it took days for her to get back to our normal dog. Putting my dog in a cage for days is NOT what we wanted. But Maribel was our answer. She loved on Gracie, played with her, texted us with pictures, and when we picked her up, she was not traumatized. She was her happy, normal dog self. We are grateful for Maribel and highly recommend her.”

“Melany is great!! We left our fur baby with her for a week and she sent pictures and he absolutely loved it! We were a little nervous about how he would act considering he is a very energetic dog and especially loved to explore outside so can be a handful at times on the leash but she did absolutely wonderful!! Definitely will be rebooking on our next trip no questions asked!!”

“Carrie is a wonderful dog sitter, she was happy to schedule a meet and great to make sure our dogs were compatible with hers and she was very accommodating with our anxious rescues needs. She sends updates and plenty of photos while they are there. Highly recommend Carrie and we will definitely use her in the future if we need someone to watch our boys!”

“Tulasi and Buddy are PAW-ESOME!! Went out of town on vacation for over a week and left my pup in their care. They regularly sent pictures and updates of how he was doing- he looked like he was having the time of his life in every one. Big smiles and lots of wagging tails were always present. I absolutely would recommend trusting these two with any pups if you are looking for someone to take care of them. Buddy returned my pup a few hours ago- the first 30 minutes were full of excitement to be home and lots of miss-you-cuddles, which were promptly followed by my pup rolling over and passing out creating a drool puddle bigger than his head. Clearly he had the time of his life with Tulasi, Buddy, and all of the furry friends he made during his stay. And I was able to have the time of my life on my vacation knowing my baby was being loved and taken care of. I won’t hesitate to contact these two next time I need someone to care for my pup and would urge you to do the same. ??!!THANK YOU TULASI AND BUDDY!! ??”

“Andrea did a great with job with Cooper. We were concerned because he was only 3 months old but based on the pictures Andrea provided we had no worries. He seemed to enjoy his stay and I would highly recommend Andrea and family.”

“Taylor is amazing! She took such a good care of Canelo while I was at work, her dog Rêve played with him all day. It was wonderful to come home and have him tired out and happy.”

“Teddy look like he was enjoying his stay. Thank you for the updates, it really made me feel good and know he’s in good hands. Thank you again!!! If I had to rate the experience with 5 being outstanding. 5 it is!!!!!!!! 👍”
