About: My whole family has always had dogs throughout my life. I have necessary experience to be able to handle even big dogs. That is why I am confident I’ll be a good fit to take care of any pup while respecting and continuing their specific training and cues. I will be available to let them potty or play outside as often as they need or with what their routine is at home. Just let me know what you need! I have supplies for any dogs needs. And also a fenced in backyard with plenty of room for us to play together. I also have plenty of toys on hand, from balls to ropes to durable stuffed animals.
“Sheila is THE BEST. This was our second experience and even though I was last minute booking and picked them up a hair late after not getting back to town when I thought we would, her attitude was always SO kind and she genuinely loved our pups. Really grateful for her service and would definitely recommend!”
“Our Charlie always gets great care with Edwin and Andrea. They send photos/updates daily and he gets plenty of opportunities for outdoor time, which he loves.”
About: We have been owners of a golden retriever for 6 years and are experienced with the needs of dogs. I have also watched friends dogs many times while they were out of town. I'm a homeschooled mom who will have a lot of time during the day to give your dog love and attention. My own dog spends lots of time outside enjoying fresh air and squirrels. I have a fenced yard and can take your pup on regular walks. My kids and I love animals and will be happy to cover scratches and cuddles while you're at work or out of town
“Nathan is fantastic! He sent pictures and videos throughout and my pup seemed to have a blast! He went to a dog bar, played with neighborhood kids and even helped with yard work.”
“Kassidy generously welcomed Tucker into her home for 2 weeks. Pictures she sent showed he was having a great time with her dog. Kassidy was very communicative ahead of the stay so I was confident she would take great care of him!”
“We loved having Amy watch our pup, Harper! We have an especially timid dog who usually doesn't like strangers, but seemed to really do well under Amy's care. Harper was nice and tired when we picked her up from playing with all the other dogs! We were very pleased with her stay and would definitely use her again.”

“Ella watched my two cats for the 12 days I was gone, and I couldn’t have asked for better service! This was my first time using Rover and I wasn’t sure what to expect, but Ella exceeded expectations! She sent me cute pictures and thorough updates every day, and made sure to give my cats lots of care and attention! I definitely wouldn’t hesitate to book her again if I needed!”
“Jamie was great! She came recommended from a coworker and I was very happy with how she cared for my cat Luna. I really appreciated how she wanted to meet and discuss Luna’s care in person first before the booking started, it made me feel more comfortable leaving Luna for a few days. I will definitely be scheduling future check-ins with her when I go out of town.”
About: I am a cat owner of two years and before that I lived with cats and regularly pet sat multiple cats! I know how to keep energetic cats stimulated and how to keep it chill for those who need a little more space to open up! I look forward to meeting your kitties!
About: I’ve loved and cared for cats for many years and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I currently cat sit regularly for a woman who lives in an apartment, and I make sure her cat feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while she’s away. I have experience feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, giving medications, playing, and providing companionship based on each cat’s personality and comfort level. I understand that some cats are very social while others prefer quiet space and patience, and I’m happy to adapt to their needs. Although I can’t currently have pets of my own because I live in a small apartment, caring for animals is something I truly love. I treat every cat like my own and always aim to provide dependable, loving, and stress-free care for both pets and owners.
“They on my cat while I’m gone. Litter box is always scooped when I get back and my cat seems happy. Reliable and easy to do business with. 😤👍”
“Thank you very much. Did a wonderful job checking in on my 2 kitties while I was out of town for the weekend. Spent some quality time with them and even left them some treats. I will for sure be back. Thank you”
“Abbey was very punctual and communicative. She made us feel like our cat was in great hands while we were gone. She sent multiple pictures a day and was very kind and respectful to our home.”
“Kayla did a great job with my boys! They loved spending time with her and she took very good care of them. I’ll definitely have her take care of my cats the next time I’m out of town!”
About: Cats are my favorite kind of company! Whether they’re shy or social, I’ll make sure your fur baby gets the love and care they deserve. I love earning their trust, giving pets and treats, and making sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away! 💕
“Syble was great looking after my cat! Even though my cat was conspicuously absent, Syble checked to be sure he had everything he needed. Communication was great. Would have no hesitation to recommend Syble.”
“Elizabeth took great care of our cat at short notice over the holidays - always on time and provided regular updates. She is appreciated and we highly recommend her!”
“Amy was caring, took great care of my kitty. She sent a photo of Noah playing while I was out of town and I knew my cat enjoyed staying with her. I would definitely ask Amy to watch Noah again.”
About: Growing up on a farm, I learned early on that every animal deserves patience and a steady hand. I treat every pet as an equal, whether I’m bottle-feeding a newborn kitten, training a high-energy dog to run alongside me, or simply sitting in the sun to keep a senior pet company. Because I don’t have pets of my own right now, my schedule is completely open. They get 100% of my attention, 100% of the time. Working from home full-time gives me the ultimate flexibility to provide your pet with constant companionship.I have dedicated blocks in the morning, at noon, and in the evening for long walks, play sessions, and feedings. Your pet won't just be 'checked on'—they’ll be part of my daily flow. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is maintaining their sense of security. I follow your 'house rules' to the letter to ensure their routine stays consistent. From refreshing water bowls and administering meds to high-energy play sessions, I handle every task with care. I also make sure your home stays exactly as you left it—secure, clean, and filled with a happy, well-exercised pet.
About: I’ve mostly cared for bigger dogs with a lot of energy. I regularly look after my friend’s pets as well as my family’s. I have a dog of my own, she’s very active and friendly. I’ve had her for over a year and learned so much about dogs from being a pet parent. I got to school part-time but I still have quite a bit of time throughout the day for check-ins. The weekends are best for boarding. I like to do dog walking throughout the week. I spend most of my time at home so I don’t mind hosting at my home but I’ll also do care at a client’s home. I do not have a fenced in back yard but I live in an area with a lot of parks and open spaces. I do spend a lot of time outside so I’m comfortable with going out for multiple walks a day. I don’t provide treats of my own unless the owner asks me too or if they tell me what they’re okay with their pet eating. I don’t give pets food I’m eating because I don’t want them to choke or they could get sick.

Perfect for high energy dogs - South 48th Street
“We really appreciated that Jadyn was able to take care of our Roxie last minute. We love that he is really fast in responding back and adaptive to our schedule (which is super helpful). On top of that he is really polite and respectful and Roxie loved him since the moment she saw him :)))”
“Tuffy looks happy and well cared for, which really stood out to me. David seems very comfortable and confident handling dogs. It’s clear he actually spends quality time with the dogs rather than just keeping them around, and that makes a big difference. We are grateful.”
“Jamie was very inviting. She met me at the door and greeted me. Her house was set up so well for dogs. Tinkerbell enjoyed having time outside with their dogs. I highly recommend Jamie and will definitely consider for future bookings”
“Andrea and Ed and their 3 fur babies welcomed Moose into their home and took such good care of him! Thank you so much, hope Moose can visit again soon!”

About: We recently said goodbye to our German Shepherd, who we had the joy of taking care of for the last 13 years. We are comfortable with all ages and sizes of dogs.

We have 4 kids ready to give your dog a lot of love and attention. We are gentle with animals, and we will follow precisely whatever instructions you give us.

I’m comfortable caring for different pets of different sizes and energy levels, including walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and giving them attention and companionship while their owners are away.
“Infinity was wonderful to work with! It was clear immediately that she cared for my pup and made sure she was comfortable in her home. She provided regular updates and photos and even gave my pup a bath after play time ended in the mud 🤦🏻♀️ I am so thankful our first pet sitting experience with this dog was with Infinity!”
About: I care deeply about dogs and their welfare, including love and exercise. My dog Mitzy also loves other dogs and is a gentle companion; she loves to play and make friends.

I have a fenced backyard and we have a huge neighborhood area exclusively to us homeowners the size of a football field. Also there are to parks within 5 minutes.
About: I am a School Counselor and love doing Rover as a fun side gig. I have been a dog owner for the past ten years, as well as a trained therapy dog handler. I know pets are like family, and you need trusted and reliable care while you are away or working long hours. I have open/flexible summer hours June until mid-August. Open for day time care, walks, and check ins as well as overnight care. Boarding and doggy day care in the country club neighborhood if dogs get along with mine and can be around a 3 year old! I have a fenced backyard and two golden retrievers (5 and 6 years old). Due to also having a 3 year old, I prefer to care for animals in their home but can be flexible depending on animal temperament towards children.

About: I have taken care of many family and friends dogs. I treat them like they’re mine own. I go out of my way to make them feel happy. I’m retired so my days and evenings are open to care for your pets. My hours are very flexible. Time with your pet will be the best part of my day. I love to walk, so your dog will get as much walking in as he or she wants. Their schedule will be my schedule. There are lots of dogs in my neighborhood, so your fur baby will meet new friends.
“Rachel was great with our dog Murphy! She was prompt in replying and very dependable. Murphy looked forward to his walk everyday, she even adjusted her schedule for us. We will definitely use Rachel again in the future.”
About: Most people babysit growing up, I was the local petsitter instead. Now I’m the go-to petsitter for my friends and colleagues, looking to help others! I have experience petsitting both cats and dogs! My main summer job is research, so the hours I’m available are very flexible. I make my own schedule so I can make myself available for most times! I’ve cared for lots of pets of varying age and need ranges, so I am equipped to do whatever is needed for pets to thrive while their owners are away. I am used to taking dogs on long walks or snuggling under a blanket, and I have two very particular cats of my own so I know how to get kitties eating, playing, and comfortable!
“I have been using Andrea and Edwin for awhile now and they are so wonderful to work with. I usually request them when I have to have my boyfriend’s dog with me for extended days, but they are still sending me pictures of my cat who wasn’t part of the request. They are efficient in communication and flexible in timing and if something comes up. Highly recommend them for your pet needs!”
About: I've dog sat for various families over the years. I've house sat 3 different times, and have experience with senior dogs needing extra care (medicine, cleaning, etc.) I also have experience watching up to three dogs at once. I have family and friends willing to assist me in case of emergencies, as well. I know some dog first aid, including CPR and Heimlich. Once I graduate from college and finish my summer classes in September, my schedule will be completely open! I don't have any regular weekly commitments, so I can spend as much time with your pet(s) as needed! I like to spend as much time with pets as possible, even if that just means sitting in the same room as them while we each do our own things.

About: I’ve lived my whole life with at least one pet in the house and shared responsibility in caring for him or her. I took in my own pupper, Benji, in the summer of 2020 as a 4-month-old puppy and trained him myself. My husband and I also have a precious cat named Princess who rules the roost :) We love our fur family, and I/we can’t wait to love on yours! I work a regular 8-5 job that has some flexibility in the morning and afternoon (I can come in later and leave earlier if I need to). I’m free most evenings and weekends. I can take care of pets in my apartment for a short period, but they have to be ok with cats and dogs. I have a cat tree and a litter box, and I take my small dog on a walk 3x a day. I would do the same or more for my clients. I also expect my clients to line out any needs and rules for me in their homes and/or for their pets so I can take care of them as desired.
“We had a last minute out of town trip pop up and Colleen & Mozart were easily to quickly coordinate with. They were very friendly and easy to communicate with. Would highly recommend!”
“Marie was excellent! She communicated consistently and provided great care for my 7 month frenchie. I would recommend her to anyone who needs boarding or pet care!”
