“The sitters did an amazing job. They communicated regularly with photos to update us on our dogs well being. Our dogs got a little anxious being away for the first time with someone new and one of them stayed out in the living room all night to help them calm down.”
“Ellie and Carson did an amazing job taking care of our sweet Uri! From the start, they were kind, communicative, and made us feel completely comfortable leaving Uri with them. You can tell they truly love animals and treat them like family. They made sure Uri was safe, happy, and well cared for while we were away. When we picked Uri up, he was excited and waiting at the door but yet he looked relaxed and content at the same time, which means everything to us as pet owners. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Uri was in such good hands. We are very grateful for the care and attention they gave him. We would absolutely trust Ellie and Carson to watch Uri again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for dependable and caring dog sitters!”
“Our dogs love Jenny! We have one medium dog and one large dog. Jenny is amazing and keeps us up to date on how our dogs are doing. It is so nice to be away and not have to worry about our dogs! I highly recomend her!”
“Heather and her family are great! She took great care of my sweet Jojo and sent us pictures and updates throughout the day. Heather is very trustworthy and a great communicator. I definitely recommend her and will use her again in the future.”
“Our dogs loved loved it at their home. We booked a last minute booking for a weekend and have never ever done that so we were nervous but they made the dogs feel so loved and welcome. They send us pics throughout their stay and kept us updated about them. We will definitely use them for every time”
“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!”
“We LOVE Pat! She took such wonderful care of our baby, Linnie. From the very first time I met her, I instantly knew she was the perfect fit. Pat has such a warm, loving, and cozy energy — both she and her home made us feel completely comfortable leaving Linnie in her care. She sent pictures, videos, and regular updates throughout Linnie's stay, which meant so much to us. We will absolutely be using Pat again for any future needs!”
“Holly took the best care of our puppies, they didn’t want to leave! Her and her family treated the dogs like their own and sent lots of pictures and updates☺️ will definitely be returning to Holly the next time we’re out of town!!”
“We were very pleased with Erica! She's a great communicator. Sends lots of pictures. I loved that. It was also sweet to see our dog, Ruthie, sleeping at their feet. She seemed to be very much at home there.”
“Our pups had a wonderful stay! Stephanie easily comforted Jade through a pretty bad storm. I received lots of communication and pictures. These dogs are whooped after all the fun they had!”
About: I love dogs and will care for them and love them like they are part of our family! They will get plenty of potty breaks and we will go for walks. There will be play time and plenty of cuddles! Monday through Thursday I work outside the home so bathroom breaks would be in the morning, evening and nighttime. Walks and play time would be in the evening as well. Friday through Sunday I am more available to spend time playing and cuddling with your pet. My yard is not fenced in so pets will be taken out on a leash for bathroom breaks and walks. Pets are welcome to lay on the furniture and sleep on a comfy bed. If you prefer for your pet to be crated at night or during the day when I’m at work, that can be accommodated.
“I’m so glad we were able to find Amanda. She welcomed my Rottweiler as one of her own when we needed a last minute dog sitter. She communicated greatly the 4 days she had her by texting and sending me videos to ensure me that my big baby was enjoying herself. I definitely recommend her and will be using her for future vacations!!”
“Channon was so great. We left our 75 lb Pyrenees mix with Channon for two nights. Channon's dog Bizzy was the perfect playmate for our pup! She did a great job caring for him, sharing any concerns she had, and sending a video or two. We could tell that our pup was having a great time and felt very comfortable. Thank you Channon!!”
“We had a great experience! Very accommodating to our dog’s needs and made sure he was comfortable and well cared for. It gave us peace of mind knowing our senior pup was in such good hands. We would definitely recommend and would happily book again. 🐾”
“Samantha and Tim are so great to work with! We are relieved that we have such a reliable place to send our dog. We know he’s in great hands. They love and take care of him like he’s their own!”
“Best experience by far.. love her and her wonderful family.. she sent pictures and videos.. she made me feel so comfortable leaving my fur babies with her.. definitely will use her again.. if your nervous like I was .. you will be pleasantly surprised…”
“Ashley and her family took care of my dog Sonny like he was their own. She sent me photos during his stay with them and was very understanding and flexible when unexpected changes happened during my travel.”
“Maribel was so flexible with us and treated our anxious pup like he was her own baby! We had to change plans at last minute and she welcomed Charlie with open arms. She was so wonderful with him and we are so appreciative of her!”
“Excellent sitter! Very caring, attentive and loving. Sends pics and msgs to keep me updated so we could enjoy our holiday while knowing he was being were taken care of. Thank you so much and I will definitely rebook for future trips!”

“Arianna did great with our babies. We recently added a new kitten (4.5 months old) to the mix and had to switch from drop-ins to house sitting at least until she's a bit older. She sent us update pictures, took up the trash cans for us, and stayed overnight. She let us know when the goblin kitten was getting into stuff and moved it so she wouldn't hurt herself. We actually got a cat water fountain delivered while we were away and she set it up for us which was so sweet! We've already booked her again for Christmas :D”
“Audrey took excellent care of our 5-month-old kittens! It was the first time leaving them for the weekend - nerve wracking for humans and kittens - and she kept us well updated on their care and antics. It seemed like they all enjoyed each others company! We really appreciated the time she spent with them beyond just feeding and all that. Looking at photos and reading her updates every day was a fun part of our trip!”
About: I've been caring for animals for over 10 years and have always had a passion for pets. I have experience house-sitting, feeding, walking, cleaning up after, and caring for dogs and cats for neighbors, family, and friends. Growing up with pets has taught me that every animal is unique, and I treat each one with the same love, patience, and attention I'd give my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I'm a graduate student completing my degree online while working about 30 hours a week in my internship. Outside of work and school, I spend most of my time with my family, my boyfriend, and at church on Wednesdays and Sundays. My schedule is generally flexible, and I do my best to accommodate pet owners' needs whenever possible. I often spend time accompanying the dogs with snuggles and a couple of hours of playtime a day. I provide food and water for the animals as instructed by the owner as each owner has a different approach. I often take dogs on one or two walks a day because exercise is extremely beneficial for pets.
About: I have owned cats for 8 years and have also rescued many kittens over the last few years. Cats are some of my favorite animals and I love their personalities. I know as a cat owner how anxious you can be leaving your felines in someone elses care. I promise to provide multiple updates and pictures a day to give you piece of mind while you are away.
“Karissa was super easy to coordinate with, did everything we asked, provided plenty of pictures, and gave Luna lots of pets and love in our absence. Would definitely recommend her!”
About: I have fed and played with cats on multiple occasions, and I genuinely have a great love for them in my heart. I have 2 years of experience, and I’m looking forward increasing that amount. I’m experienced in caring for them on the day to day basis, so don’t worry your fur babies will be nice and safe, and cared for in my care. plus, I will make sure they get lots of love, and cuddles.
“Heather and Andrew did an excellent job caring for our three rambunctious rescue kittens. They showed up twice a day to feed, water and play with the cats—then did a great job cleaning the food dishes, water bowls, and the three litter boxes. They loved on our kitties and respected our property. Great sitters!”
“CJ was fabulous! She made friends with Gucci, who is a really shy guy. Fed, watered, played, and loved on him. She sent great pictures, and brought in the mail. Soooo thoughtful! I am scheduling her for our trip to England in November. Thank you, thank you, thank you, CJ! You made our trip, worry free!❤️”
“Emily took care of my rabbit while I was gone on vacation for a week. She was so sweet and caring with him. She communicated so well with me about his care and sent me daily pictures of him. When I got home he was happy and relaxed and I could tell that he had a good week. I would recommend Emily to anyone who is in need of care for their pets.”
About: I have experience working as a kennel technician at a local animal hospital and have been caring for my pets for several years. I have also taken classes on pet care and how to work with different types of animals. I am currently working a part-time job, but i am able to accommodate what is best for you. Since I have a very flexible schedule I am open for just about everything! I have experience with kenneling dogs while also being on a timely feeding time and hourly walks, and play times. I care for my pets by crating and having scheduled feeding times along with plenty of fenced-in outdoor time!
“When I met Emma for the first time, we hit it off and I knew she would be a good person to take care of my babies. Emma was Heaven sent. She sent me videos and pictures of my kitties daily and informed me of a concern SHE had about one of them. That showed me that she payed attention to them and she cared. Emma did a great job and I guarantee you, she will take care of your baby(ies) as well. Thanks Emma and Rover.”
“Reba used so much consideration and care when looking after my elderly cat. She was kind, gentle, and understanding of his temperament and needs and it made me feel so much better about leaving him for a week.”
“Summer is great! She was so flexible with me when booking and was great with Lilo. She even brought in a few packages that came. I will be using her in the future!”

“Karyssa and her family were communicative about pick-up, drop-off, and events during the daycare. Gumby had a great time hanging out with her family. We couldn’t recommend her more 🐶! 10/10 would do it again.”
“Sarah was amazing. Mr. McMcBeevee had separation anxiety and we had just arrived to our new town. Sarah was able to accommodate us on short notice. Her calm, sweet nature was just what my sweet pup needed. Her helpers (kiddos) gave him all the love and attention he deserved. He loved playing with their labradoodle, Ryder. As a travel nurse, I appreciated the updates and pictures. Mr McBevee looks forwards to rebooking in the future”
About: I have been a dog owner since before I could walk, and have always seen my dogs as members of my family. In addition to growing up with dogs, I have also raised several litters of AKC registered Golden Retrievers, so I truly know how to care for every aspect of a dog. I have the knowledge and experience to care for any breed - from large & high energy to small & anxious… I am confident caring for all. I am very educated in breed specific traits and understand that every breed comes with specific needs. I am also willing to accommodate most unique needs you may have; whether your dog needs to be fed away from any other dogs/people, needs daily medication or even if you need me to reinforce a strict training regimen while they are in my care. I am confident in my ability to meet any level of care required. So whether you’re looking for an easygoing home with kids to snuggle your family dog while they’re away from you, or a knowledgable caretaker who knows the importance of stability and regimens; we surely will be the perfect fit! I am a stay-at-home mom so I am able to be present 24/7 to ensure total and diligent care for any animal in my home. We have a large cozy house with plenty of space to run around and play! There’s a large fenced in backyard to run around in! Our dog has free range of the house, but we have the ability to keep dogs and children completely separate when needed (via baby gates) and are willing to enforce any home rules to ensure stability. I have 3 well behaved children who are adequately trained on appropriate ways to interact with animals. I also have an adorable mini goldendoodle named Arlo who just might be the most lazy & well mannered doodle out there! I was a school nurse before becoming a stay at home mom and my husband is a doctor, so we have a very medically trained and safe household!
“Taylor and Trenton took wonderful care of my Great Dane Reagan! I'm always nervous that she can be a handful because she's such a huge puppy but it seems everyone had a great time! I would definitely have her stay with them again :)”
“Andrea was so amazing to my baby girl Kylie. Kylie instantly loved her and felt comfortable. She communicated well, set updates and pics. I can tell kyky had a good time with her, her pups and family. Thank you again Andrea. I will be using her again.”
“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!”
“Morgan and her family were absolutely AMAZING to my sweet pup! You can really tell that she (along with her children) really just love to care for animals. I was very satisfied with everything, my pup had two days of “day care” when my work schedule was extremely busy & my pup was so excited to go back the next day and see her family. Thank you again Morgan!”
“Tulasi did wonderful with Paco we've never left her with anybody but family and she just loved her and was excited to go back the next day and I've already setting up to book three more overnight visits within the next few months so I would highly recommend her”
About: I have been blessed to grow up with cats and dogs my whole life. I love taking care of animals. I have a dog and 3 cats of my own. Animals bring joy and it’s important to find care that you can trust and will do what you ask because they are your animals. I’m happy to care for your pets the way you request. I believe animals are a part of the family and deserve to be treated with that kind of love, care, and respect. I’m currently working part time as a nurse while I care for my son and my own fur babies. I look forward to meeting more animals and sharing the love. I have a privacy fenced in back yard where our dog stays. I have 2 outdoor cats (used to my dog who come and go as they please) and 1 indoor cat. If you choose to board your dog with mine we would have a meet and greet beforehand to make sure it’s a great fit for your fur baby and mine
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.
“The girls absolutely love going to Erica and Christian’s for their day care. They have always been on top of responding and I love the pictures they send during the day. I would highly recommend them to anyone!”
“Suzanne did a professional and wonderful job! I felt entirely comfortable leaving my lab, Harley with her. She did an exceptional job and I most definitely would have her care my my best friend again! She is a five star plus!!!”
About: I’ve been dog sitting on and off for a while now. I’ve used other dog sitting apps in the past and I’ve recently moved into a larger house to have plenty of room for your fur baby to have room to run and play. I will provide walks and play time everyday, and if you need baths or anything extra I will. I’m home 90% of the time so your fur baby will never really be alone. I can do dog boarding and/or drop in visits. I’m very flexible and if have a multiple day stay we can negotiate a better price for your babies. Available anytime I can meet for pick up and drops off do home visit or overnights in my house or yours I’m here for any of your needs Big yard we will go on a walk every afternoon at the park with my dog my kids will play fetch for hours never a dull moment
About: I provide exceptional care for every dog breed and I will show them great attention so that they will be eager to come back and spend time with me. I have raised three different breed of a dogs, husky mixed collie, boxer mixed and chihuahua and Pomeranian so I have a lot of familiarity with different breeds. I have experience with small and medium size dogs. I like to be able to have a relationship with every dog I dog sit so that they have a great experience while they are with me. I also have two teenagers who have plenty of experience with caring for dogs and will be at home to care for your dog(s). Pet care is very important to me. I treat each dog that I dog sit like the dog is my own and provide great attention to their needs and act accordingly. I work from home, so I will be able to provide all the attention your dog(s) will need. I care for pets by fostering dogs over the past years and being able to take care of different dog breeds as some dog breeds are uniquely different than others.
“Sally Ann enjoyed daycare with Elizabeth and her doggies. We were sent many pictures throughout the day, and communication through text was great! We certainly hope Sally would be welcome to come again,”
“Caitlin was amazing with Winnie! Super responsive, regular updates with photos, really flexible and understanding with schedule changes, and I felt totally at peace knowing Winnie (my dog child) was in great hands. Can’t recommend enough!!”

About: I have always had dogs, cats, goats, rabbits, ect. Also, I'm an EMT so I can handle any medical emergency that may arise as well! I just work part time, 3 nights per week, so my schedule is very open to love and care for your pets along with mine! I have a fenced yard as well as a fenced porch. My 2 fur babies are free roamers inside and are super friendly and loving!
About: I have spent my whole life around dogs. From a young child to current day, I've always had a pet in my life. I have cared for outdoor dogs, indoor dogs, fish, and snakes. I've also cared for and been around most ages of dogs from 8 week puppies to elderly companions. I love spending time outdoors with them, sunshine, snow, pools, treks, mud, or wherever. My two kids are in school so I'll have plenty of time for your pet. My kids are comfortable around pets so even after school, I'm still available for care. I'm also available to board any day or night of the week. I'm close to parks and Pilot Mountain trails. I have plenty of backyard space for you pet to run and even a ramp entrance for pets with mobile difficulties. I have a backyard space for healthy walking/running. I have plenty of toys to keep your pet active and cushions for relaxing. I have a crate available if needed. I also have a dog of my own to keep your pet company. My dog is allowed on all the furniture in the house and yours is welcome to join in for cuddles.
About: I have taken care of a variety of animals, my own and others included, since as far back as 8 years old. I've always enjoyed taking care of animals of all shapes, sizes, and ages and it makes my heart happy to see my kids following in those footsteps as they get older as well. I have a husband of almost 11 years, which will occasionally be helping with some of the pet care, and we have 2 kids (ages 4 and 9) so you know your animals will get plenty of cuddles and play time. We all enjoy and love your pets like our own! Our pets of our own include chickens which are all kept inside of a fenced in area. We live on roughly 3 acres of "unfenced land" at the end of our paved neighborhood road. Included in that are a few scenic trails through the woods on our property, so that means we have plenty of space for your fur babies to have some play time outside in the yard, and walks through the neighborhood/trails for exploration, exercise, and relaxation throughout the day! We are here with open arms ready to care for your sweet babies and willing to learn about each of their individual needs to make sure we make them and you feel comfortable and part of our family in the process! From boarding overnight, to drop-in visits when you can't be there, to random play visits/walking your fur babies, or even meeting/helping you with multiple animals' vet visits..... No matter the job or type of animal, give us a try and you won't be disappointed! We can't wait to hear from you and to make you part of the fam! I am a part time teacher/part time stay-at-home mom/wife so I have plenty of time to devote to your fur babies to make sure they get all the love, care, and attention they deserve for whatever the job you may need for them! Your pets are housed inside our home as one of the family. We have plenty of crates inside our house for individual sleeping spaces. We also use baby gates throughout the house to separate areas of our house so animals can be separated in their own spaces if and when needed. I always communicate quickly with clients and make sure to send lots of pictures to assure them of their pets experience and exceptional care with my family and I. I also provide each animal with an apple air tag just as a safety precaution when they are in my care for mine and my clients peace of mind.

To the best of my ability!
About: I’ve taken care of multiple animals since the age of 7. I’ve had 3 different dogs and dog breeds, and they were always loving and happy to be in my care. I currently have an 11 year old healthy yorkie who has had such a happy life filled with love, people think she’s a puppy still. I am naturally knowledgeable about important information when dealing with animals, and I’ve also been a temporary care taker for my grandma.

“Emily and I met to get to know once another and let her interact with Kacee. She is wonderful and the way she interacted with Kacee left me feeling secure on the knowledge that she would care for him as if her were her own. We got pictures from Emily while Kacee was out being his wonderful self which I loved. We will definitely be using Emily in the future. Emily thank you so much”
About: I live on a 14-acre property with vinyl horse fencing that has been reinforced with fence wire to contain dogs securely. We have two fully fenced fields, each about 70 yards x 50 yards. One field has agility equipment. Boarders and day care dogs will be able to interact with the agility equipment, if time allows and dog is comfortable. The other field is used mainly for disc dog practice and competitions, but is also great for general play. We have a stream running along the back of our property. We have 2 dog runs outside for outdoor relaxation when we are not doing activities. I have dog training certifications with Karen Pryor Academy and Animal Behavior College. I prefer to interact with dogs using positive reinforcement, treats and praise. I have been involved with dog sport training since 2008. We currently have 7 small dogs, all actively involved in dog sports, including flyball, disc, agility, barn hunt and tricks. Our females are intact and 2 males are intact.
About: I've had pets of all types all my life and couldn't be happier about it! I live right near a park for walking near me, work my own hours at home so am flexible anytime, and can even bring my own Siberian Husky if requested for puppy playdates etc.. I work my own schedule and at my own volition from home (part contract work, part commission) so im incredibly open as to days, hours, or times. Again, ive had a Siberian Husky since he was about 3 months old in 2017 and have raised him to be well-behaved since then. Anyone who has met a husky knows theyre some of the most hyper-active and high maintenance dogs so I'm condient in my skills. Have also raised cats, snakes, bunnies, and even chickens before so I have a wide range of pet care skills.
About: I have grown up with all kinds of animals from house pets to farm animals. I currently do Rover full-time, but have worked at a dog boarding/training facility and have worked with/handled dogs of all sizes and breeds. Although I have more experience around dogs I love cats just as much! I have no issues with certain breeds, ages, sizes, or handling medicine (so long as it is nothing a professional vet should handle). I can’t wait to watch and care for your fur babies! I pet-sit full time, giving me plenty of free time to walk, watch, and love your pets! My schedule is also very flexible making it easier to schedule based off your needs! I do have my own dog but unfortunately she is not friendly with other animals. Because of this I can only do daycare/overnight at clients own homes and walks/check-ins. I have plenty of personal and professional experience with aggressive animals and have no issues watching/walking aggressive dogs so long as both me and you are comfortable with it. With that being said it is important to me that any aggressive behavior whether with animals and/or people is told upfront and honestly as well meeting the dog ahead of time.
“Lexie was so great with Brinkley. She spent a lot of time with her and gave her lots of attention. She was really accommodating with the specifics of walking her and even took her to Brinkleys favorite park! The cherry on top was that she brought a package inside for us, talk about going above and beyond. I would highly recommend using Lexie to care for you pups. Brinkley can’t wait to walk with Lexie again 🐶”

“Our dogs love Jenny! We have one medium dog and one large dog. Jenny is amazing and keeps us up to date on how our dogs are doing. It is so nice to be away and not have to worry about our dogs! I highly recomend her!”
“Heather and her family are great! She took great care of my sweet Jojo and sent us pictures and updates throughout the day. Heather is very trustworthy and a great communicator. I definitely recommend her and will use her again in the future.”
“Our dogs loved loved it at their home. We booked a last minute booking for a weekend and have never ever done that so we were nervous but they made the dogs feel so loved and welcome.

About: I love dogs and will care for them and love them like they are part of our family! They will get plenty of potty breaks and we will go for walks. There will be play time and plenty of cuddles! Monday through Thursday I work outside the home so bathroom breaks would be in the morning, evening and nighttime. Walks and play time would be in the evening as well. Friday through Sunday I am more available to spend time playing and cuddling with your pet. My yard is not fenced in so pets will be taken out on a leash for bathroom breaks and walks. Pets are welcome to lay on the furniture and sleep on a comfy bed. If you prefer for your pet to be crated at night or during the day when I’m at work, that can be accommodated.
“I’m so glad we were able to find Amanda. She welcomed my Rottweiler as one of her own when we needed a last minute dog sitter.

I definitely recommend her and will be using her for future vacations!!”

About: I have over four years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog, including managing illnesses, administering medications, and recognizing when something isn’t quite right. Through this experience, I’ve learned to pay close attention to canine behavior and body language, allowing me to pick up on subtle cues about a dog’s comfort, needs, and emotions. I understand how to respond calmly in emergency situations and how to help dogs feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether it’s encouraging a dog to eat, maintaining their routine, or simply providing companionship, I approach every dog with patience, attentiveness, and genuine compassion. I truly see dogs as family members and believe they deserve the same respect, kindness, and care that we give to people. My goal is to make every dog feel loved, secure, and understood while they’re in my care. As a therapist who works from home, I am able to provide consistent supervision and attention throughout the day. My schedule includes regular breaks, allowing me to attend to your dog’s needs, offer potty breaks, playtime, walks, affection, and companionship without long periods of separation. My home has a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, as well as multiple rooms that can be used to give dogs their own space when needed. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and are treated like part of the family, creating a comfortable, home-like environment rather than a kennel atmosphere. Most importantly, I will be home the entire time your dog is in my care, ensuring they receive attentive supervision, comfort, and companionship throughout their stay.
“Paisley was great! Very communicative and easy to deal with. Gave us great updates while we were away and made coordinating pickup and drop off very easy. Definitely will hire her again!”
