“Megan is absolutely incredible. She treats our dog as if she were her own. She communicates regularly and keeps us informed. So very grateful to have Megan watch our Fina when we are away. Five stars and beyond!”
“I’d give 6 stars if i could. We left Sully for an extended period of time for the very first time, which of course came with parental nerves and concerns (especially since my dog has IBD, so he needs the extra care and attention) Ashton was incredibly responsive, accommodating, and understanding of our nerves, but his care for Sully quickly dissolved our nerves of leaving Sully with how well he cared for him. Ashton sent us morning/evening updates, pictures, and took care of our dog as if he was one of his own (so much so that we could tell Sully was sad to leave him!) Ashton is an amazing pup care giver, i’d recommend him 10/10 and will choose him 100x over next time we need a sitter (and i know Sully will be so excited to see him again)”
“Truly awesome service, Jo was super flexible with my late request and took amazing care of Missy. She sent photo updates to let me know what they were up to which was great to see. She asked thoughtful questions to make sure she understood everything about Missy to make sure she gave her a great stay. Missy had a ton of fun with Jo and I will 100% use her again!”
“Adriana and her whole family was very accommodating and patient with our dog who gets separation anxiety. She kept me updated frequently with pictures and texts. I would use Adriana again and would recommend her. Thank you!”
“Brooke took amazing care of our little dog Star! We left our chihuahua with her in April of 2023 for a week. We received daily updates with pictures. She was treated as part of Brooke's family and not just a dog. Star clearly enjoyed her time at Brooke's home. We will use again. Thank you Brooke!”
“Joshua, you were fantastic with my dog Slippy for the full 10 days. From the very beginning, I could tell how much care and attention you gave him. The regular updates and sweet photos meant the world to me and let me truly relax on my trip. Slippy came home happy, energetic, and clearly well-loved. I so grateful for everything you did. Thank you so much, Joshua — I would happily trust you with Slippy again anytime!”
“This was our first experience using Rover and we struck gold with Vanessa. She was communicative and kept us updated on our pups while we were away. Our dogs can be a handful as one is VERY high energy, but she clearly knew what she was doing and they came home happy and healthy. I would highly recommend her to watch your pups!”
“Our pup had a great time with Debra! I really appreciate that she took the time to meet with us to get to know our dog before we left her in her care. Debra was excellent at communicating and shared daily photos throughout the week. We would love to have Debra care for our dog again.”
“This was the best case scenario I could have imagined. My dog was cared for to the highest level and I feel like he is even more obedient after. Laura is very nice and accommodating!”
“I highly recommend Julia and Connor! We overnight boarded our dog for 1 night with them and they were great with her! She was spoiled rotten. I got tons of updates with pictures and she played non-stop with their adorable dog, Mango! Their yard is so pretty with a large fenced in space for running around. 10/10 experience! We definitely plan to leave Millie with them again soon.”
“Yingying was fantastic with Ace and I knew he was safe, which made my time away stress-free. I would have loved more photo updates but overall, I was very pleased. Would definitely recommend and will book again if/when needed.”
“Amanda and her family (including their awesome dog) took care of our pup as though she were their own. We received pictures and updates throughout her stay. We had great peace of mind knowing our little dog was receiving such ample love and attention. Our dog looks forward to a future stay with Amanda!”
“Katherine took great care of our pup while we were gone for a week. She sent us pictures and updates daily. Our dog was very happy and well cared for when we returned. I would highly recommend this Rover placement. This was our first experience with Rover - and we and our dog couldn't have been happier!”
“Frankie and Alice had a great time with Ralph, great walks and lots of cuddling for Alice. Frankie needs regular pills to stay healthy and he came back in better shape than when I dropped him off. Definitely will be a repeat customer!”
About: Dogs have been a part of my heart my whole life. Growing up we always had a dog in the house, big or small. Fast forward to now, my partner and I have fostered almost 40 dogs in recent years. Since then, I have cared for dozens of local dogs that are reactive, anxious, high energy, you name it. Whether it be a puppy who needs constant attention or an older dog that is set in their ways, I have handled it. Your dog(s) will be in caring, assured hands with me. I will care for any breed of any age, size or temperament. I currently work as a local dog walker, boarder and groomer. I am also home quite a bit as well. This allows me to take your pup on an adventure with me during the day where they can go on pack walks, explore and sniff or they can chill in the yard if that is more their style. I am fully insured and certified in canine first aid and CPR, so your dog is always in safe, capable hands. My family dogs are friendly, laid back and always welcome to new friends. My home is set up with multiple boundaries to allow dogs to have quiet time when needed.
“Our usual sitter wasn't available for the dates we needed, so I reached out to Jodie. She and her partner were so kind and welcoming to our two dogs, Walter and Gwen. They had a great time, and we were able to enjoy our family visit without any concerns. Thank you both so much!”
“Christina was amazing with Minnie!!! They did so much, I can't believe it!! Minnie had an amazing "vacation" away from mom! Lots of play time, care and love!!! I 100% recommend Christina! Thank you again for an easy last minute request!!”
“Cherie was very communicative and flexible with timings. Sent me photos of Ralphie and he definitely looked very happy staying with her. Will use her services again in the future.”
“This was our first time leaving our dogs with a sitter. Lucille was great! She maintained great contact and was very in tuned to the nuances of each dog. I was thrilled that the dogs got exercise and went on lots of walks! Would definitely use Lucille again!”

“Susan was the first sitter to get our cat to come out of hiding. She was responsive, paid attention to details and did a great job. I will certainly be reaching out to her again next time we need a sitter.”
“This is the second time I’ve had Callie do drop-in visits for my two cats and she did a fantastic job both times! She goes above and beyond to make sure your pets stay happy and healthy. I highly recommend hiring her for any of your pet care needs!”
About: I grew up with 3 cats, and most of my immediate family and in laws have cats even still. I've been trusted to take care of their pets for years, and trusted by family friends and extended family as well to care for their feline family members! I also spent 6 years working for an animal rescue and helping care for the kitties in the shelter. There's nothing better than a chin scritch and a purr ❤️ bonus points for kitties who like to tell me chatty stories!
“Jessica did an awesome job. Everything done as expected and the pictures and emails updates were very much appreciated. I'll book next time with her as reliable pet sitters are getting very hard to find. Thank you!!”
“Did everything we requested and connected with Calvin and Hobbs. Both cats seemed to follow him all over the house and were fine. We will definely use Robert again when going away.”
About: I’ve been around dogs the last 20 years and I’ve been taking care of dogs for the last 14 years of my life. I love them and I couldn’t imagine my life without them. I’ve learned everything I know from my parents who’ve had dogs for 32 years I am 100% free and available whenever you may need I prefer having two days heads up before I can make the plan, but I can also show up For same-day visits as needed I have 2 3-year-old Samoyed girls that are absolute sweethearts who would love to have another puppy or dog hanging out in our fenced in back yard , I can crate your dog easily if needed.
About: I have taken care of cats for the past 5 years. I have taken a few animal behavior classes in college and understand how they can act. I have had to administer insulin injections alone before and felt comfortable. I love taking care of cats and feel comfortable in every situation.
“Meg took great care of my kitty while I was gone. She listened to what I needed and followed through. It gave me so much peace of mind. I would definitely use her services again!”
“Andrea sent many pictures and made sure my cats were very well taken care of! She also did an amazing job at giving one of my cats her daily pills. While my cats were in her care I didn’t have a single worrying thought about how they were doing, making my vacation super relaxing and stress free! She’s the best!”
About: Dogs and cats have been a part of my life since I was a small child. From a young age, I was helping neighbors by letting their dogs out and watching their cats while they were away. I’ve grown up around all kinds of dogs—from my own tiny 7-pound Chihuahua to my dad’s large pack of hounds—and I’ve experienced every stage of life, from newborn litters to senior pets. With years of hands-on experience, I understand the unique needs and personalities of each animal, so you can trust that your pets are in caring, experienced hands. I currently just quit my full time job and I’m working on building my cleaning business. I’m excited to take on new pets to fill in my extra free time! I take pride in being a reliable and trustworthy caregiver for every pet I look after. I treat each dog and cat as if they were my own, giving them the attention, care, and affection they deserve. You can count on me to stick to schedules, follow instructions, and provide a safe, loving environment so your pets feel happy, comfortable, and well-cared-for while you’re away.
About: I’ve been working with dogs since I was 7 years old at my grandmothers dog grooming salon. I’ve always loved both dogs and cats, and I’ve always felt a connection to them. I now have a dog and cat, and am open to caring for more animals! Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine very easily. On days that I’m working I have plenty of time to walk my dog and feed her in the morning, and once I get out of work i have just enough time to do a walk and feed her! On my days off I tend to spend as much time with my pets as possible, wether is playing, walking, or cuddling! I care for my pets at home by spending quality time with them. My dog loves walks, playing with toys, doing tricks for treats, and cuddling. My cat enjoys lounging with me some days, but he isn’t very playful.
“Emily is extremely friendly and warm. . She has a real passion for animals and a lot of experience. She is easy to work with and excellent at giving updates about caring for your animal(s). We had a great experience in her checking on our beloved cat, Butterscotch!”
About: We enjoy walks outside and hiking on the local trails in the area. Our home is very welcoming to pets of all sizes. We have had 8 dogs at one time staying here in size from an extra large Swiss Mountain Dog to a tiny Chihuahua. We love playing with the pups in the yard and ensure they get the exercise they need. We also make sure there is always someone home with to make sure they are taken care of. Our Greater Swiss Mountain dog is extremely friendly with people and dogs and loves making new friends. He is very active and loves to play. We love pet sitting and look forward to meeting new pets from the area. I’m currently working from home. We usually start our day with a 1-2 mile local walk. Eat breakfast and start our day. Midday we play in the yard. We do not have a fenced yard, but we are secluded back from any roads. Dogs are always monitored when outside. We can do a tie out if necessary.

About: I've had a dog for 15 years and have dog sat for many years. I've been walking pets for a year officially, and love every minute of it! I am currently not working at the moment so I am free everyday at anytime before 9pm to walk or watch the cats and dogs. I am able to give pets my full attention when visiting. I do have a fenced yard with no other dogs in the house. And a shy cat.
“Brooke is so kind and sweet and my pup loved her - I definitely felt like he was in good hands while she watched him for the day. She is quickly responsive to text messages as well. Great experience!”
About: I have not been an official sitter before, but I have been a dog owner for 20 years and know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care. Dogs are family, and I understand the importance of making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. We do not currently have any fur friends at home, so we would be honored to share that love with your dog. I provide a calm environment, pay attention to routines and needs, and communicate clearly so you can feel confident while you’re away. Because we do not currently have pets at home, we have room in our routine to give your dog plenty of love, attention, and companionship. We can be intentional about feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and rest, and we know how important it is to keep dogs on a routine that helps them feel safe and settled. We know dogs are family, so we care for them with patience, attention, and genuine love. Our home is currently without other pets, which allows us to offer a calm environment and focused care. We will follow your instructions closely, pay attention to your dog’s comfort and behavior, and communicate clearly so you know your pet is safe and well cared for.
“Michael was amazing! Our 1 year old rescue is very apprehensive with other people and he adjusted perfectly. Michael sent so many pictures of our puppy with his puppy friends. I am changing my dog care from a large kennel to Michael!!”
About: I have a lifelong love for animals and experience caring for my own dog, Milano, as well as family pets. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, playtime, basic training, and providing a safe, attentive, and nurturing environment for both dogs and cats! Hi! My name is Lindsey, and I’m a stay-at-home mom who provides loving, reliable pet care right from my home. I spend my days home with my two children, which means your pet will receive constant attention, supervision, and affection. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly treat every pet like family. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch, playtime, or sticking to their normal routine, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I also have a small, friendly Chihuahua named Milano who is almost 1 year old. He is very playful, gentle, and loves meeting new friends. Because I’m home full-time, your pet will never be left alone for long periods, and I can provide a calm, attentive environment. I always recommend meet-and-greets when possible before booking, so your pet can meet my children and Milano and you can see my home. This helps ensure everyone is comfortable and it’s the best fit for your pet’s stay. 🏡 My Home & Environment • Safe, clean, and pet-friendly home • Calm family environment with lots of supervision • My children are gentle, respectful, and love animals • Pets are never left unattended • Plenty of playtime, attention, and care throughout the day I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, and I take that responsibility seriously.

“Jodie is absolutely amazing! Booked her last minute for two days of daycare for my puppy and she excepted right away. Her updates and communication throughout the day is absolutely awesome. I could not recommend a better person to watch your pet. I will be continuing to use her for all my daycare and boarding needs! If I could give her 10 stars I would!!”
“Ralph is amazing with dogs. He took care of my dog in a pinch and very last minute and he not only was flexible but also very kind and loving to my dog. My dog took to him right away, dogs know dog lovers! His updates and pictures he shared of my dog throughout the day showed a happy puppy! My dog came home and just slept, he exercised so much with Ralph. I will definitely hire him again for doggy day care and boarding.”
“Colleen was super responsive and communicated great and sent pictures throughout my dogs stay with her for doggie daycare! I highly recommend her for anything as she is super knowledgeable and was overall amazing with my dog!”
About: I am an animal and nature lover who loves being outdoors and taking care of animals. I will take care of your dog as if it was my own. We love going on walks and playing inside. I have 4 kids that are full of energy and love playing with animals as much as I do! I work from home so I am always around and love talking daily walks early in the morning, at lunch and at dinner time. My golden doodle is always looking for new friends too! I have plenty of indoor space for play and a built in playful friend in my golden doodle so your dog will never be bored but can also have separate time for relaxation as needed
About: I have 14+ years experience in the veterinary field. Learning about animal behaviors, preventative care and physical health is a passion of mine. I am a very well rounded animal enthusiast that loves to stay busy. Some of my extracurriculars include training my Australian shepherd, whether it’s dock diving, agility or overall obedience. I will hold each pet to standards that support good manners, so some training may be associated with my services. I strive to exercise your fur babies intellectually as well as physically. I am very detailed oriented, and consider myself very observant. I’m not afraid to communicate and ask questions regarding your pets’ needs. I would be caring for your pet around my typical work schedule, which is M-F ~8-6pm, but I can always drop in mid day during lunch. Communicating your expectations so I may practice proper time management is important for a successful and stress free pet sitting job. I have a very well socialized 5yo male, 50lb, Australian shepherd, Oshie and he loves to play. Additionally I can provide walks, and play sessions. Hikes are also supported.
About: My husband and I have been around dogs our entire lives and have hands-on experience caring for them in a home environment. Currently, we have a large, professionally trained dog who has helped us develop strong skills in structure, consistency, and understanding dog behavior. She was trained through 6 months, and we continue to reinforce that training daily, so I’m very comfortable with commands, routines, and maintaining a calm, well-balanced environment. We have experience with: • Large and high-energy breeds • Maintaining feeding schedules and routines • Reinforcing basic training and good behavior • Reading dog body language and temperament • Creating a safe, calm environment for multiple dogs For us, safety and attentiveness are second nature. We are always present, aware, and intentional about making sure every dog in our care feels comfortable, secure, and well looked after. Your dog will never feel like they’re in a kennel they’ll feel like they’re part of our family. Your dog’s stay will feel like a true home away from home, safe, loving, and tailored just for them. • Daily walks (morning, afternoon, and evening) plus plenty of outdoor time • Support with training and reinforcement of good habits, we’ve worked with professional trainers and are happy to continue that structure • Lots of snuggles, attention, and one-on-one care • Supervised playtime with our gentle, well-trained dog, Paris • Calm evenings with a consistent, comforting routine • Kind, dog-loving kids who interact gently and safely We’re highly attentive to each dog’s unique needs and energy level, whether they’re playful and active or more relaxed and cuddly. We’re happy to accommodate your dog’s individual sleeping routine to make them feel as comfortable as possible. Whether they prefer sleeping in a crate, on a dog bed, or having their own space to roam (including an entire floor if needed), we’ll follow your preferences and keep their routine consistent with what they’re used to at home. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos, so you can feel completely at ease knowing your dog is happy, cared for, and part of our family while you’re away. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are our top priorities. We provide a calm, structured, and impeccably clean home where dogs are always supervised and cared for with intention. To ensure a truly personalized, low-stress, luxury experience, we limit the number of dogs in our care. We typically host just one client at a time, if you have multiple dogs, we’re happy to accommodate your family together. We never exceed three dogs total, including our own, so every dog receives dedicated attention, comfort, and care. Dogs are never left unattended for long periods, and all interactions, whether with our dog Paris or my children, are closely monitored to ensure safe, positive experiences. Paris is well-trained, gentle, and accustomed to being around other dogs. We take time to understand each dog’s routine, preferences, and temperament so we can provide a consistent and comfortable stay. Feeding schedules, exercise, and any specific instructions are followed closely. Our home is designed to feel like a second home, not a kennel, where your dog can relax, feel safe, and be genuinely cared for. ***We take trust and safety very seriously and are committed to following your dog’s routine as closely as possible. This includes accommodating any feeding method or dietary needs, whether that’s raw food, fresh or home-cooked meals, kibble, or more specific requirements like low-protein or other restricted diets. We carefully follow your instructions to ensure consistency, safety, and your dog’s overall well-being.*** We also provide regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and confident while you're away. We understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable with who is caring for your dog. When we've have used Rover for Paris, we always appreciated the opportunity to meet beforehand, so we are more than happy to offer a meet-and-greet prior to booking. This gives you the chance to see our home, ask any questions, and feel confident in the safe, calm, and personalized care your dog will receive while staying with our family.
About: I have grown up with both dogs and cats of all sizes, always loving any moment spent with them! I have a love for animals and taking care of them and would love to help you when you cannot provide the time or service you want to your pets when they need it! I am a teacher with the entire summer off! I can accommodate any schedule that best suits you and your pets needs whether it be during the week or weekend. I am incredibly respectful and trustworthy human with a love for animals and whatever best suits their needs and comfort level. I understand the needs of individual pets and am more than willing to go above and beyond to make both them and you feel comfortable.
“We have a 20 lb male Cavachon named Blazer. We were very pleased with Blazer’s stay with Robert. Robert was excellent at sending us pictures and keeping Blazer happy. Robert took Blazer for walks (even a special trip to the beach for Memorial Day) and let Blazer be comfortable on the furniture. We will book again with Robert.”
“Kathryn is great. She took great care of my dog while I was at work. Sent me pictures and updates so that I knew how he was doing. Highly recommend. We did daycare with her and he loves being there and playing with her dogs and whoever else she is watching that day”
About: I grew up surrounded by dogs! I have two rescue dogs, and I’ve had my older dog for about 8 years. I am comfortable with any breed and personality/temperament. I work from home, so I am almost always available for the dogs throughout the day. We do at least two walks per day and any potty breaks as needed! I would love to meet your dog(s) and care for them! I work remotely so I am available throughout the day and also am available all weekend. I can be flexible with whatever your schedule needs. I understand that every dog's environment, temperment, and needs are different. I am happy to work with you about what your dog needs. I am comfortable dealing with excitable, nervous, and fear-aggressive dogs.
“Ashley is pleasant and knows what she is doing with these dogs! She has an ideal yard and home and was willing to show me the environment. She sent me pictures throughout the day and made me feel very comfortable. We can’t wait to work with Ashley again!”

“Callie is amazing! She is dependable and communicates effectively. I really can’t explain how much I appreciate her! I look forward to the pictures of Kola from her walks! Thank you Callie so much!”

“I really liked Jessica, my dog walker and “mama” to sarge for 3 weeks! She was extremely reliable and loved sarge as I do. I couldn’t have gotten a better person to walk and take care of my dog while I was away. She sent pictures and and texts every day she was there with him. I would definitely ask her to take care of him again on my next vacation and will recommend Jessica to my family and friends”
About: I’m not just a sitter, I’m a full-time pet parent. My husband and I have two rescue dogs that we’ve raised and cared for over the past 6 years, starting from puppyhood. We’ve gone through training, learned how to handle different behaviors and built a home that revolves around happy, well cared for pets, including two rescue cats. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I treat every dog like they’re part of my own pack, whether that means sticking to their routine, giving them extra patience, or making sure they get plenty of love and attention. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work in real estate, which gives me a flexible schedule and as a mom of two (less furry babies), I’m already used to planning my day around care, consistency and routines. That means I’m able to prioritize walks, drop ins, and check ins throughout the day. I’m often out and about locally, so it’s easy for me to incorporate visits and give pets the attention they need at consistent times. I always follow each pet owner’s lead when it comes to care. Every pet has their own routine, preferences and personality, so I take the time to listen carefully and stick as closely as possible to what they’re used to. In my home, pets are welcomed into a loving environment. We live in a quiet cul-de-sac neighborhood, which is great for safe, low-traffic walks and a more relaxed setting. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar surroundings.
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 15. I have taken care of neighbors, family, and close friends' animals. I have experience with a variety of dog breeds and personalities. I have had to administer medication via shots to animals before and feel comfortable in those situations. I plan on going to veterinary school and have a strong interest in animals and making sure they have fun. I am currently working an internship completely online as well as taking an online summer class. I am able to stay anywhere I need to take care of animals. I have not much else that can interfere with me accompanying the animals. I will take the animals on walks and play with them. I want to make sure they are having as much fun as possible so they cannot worry about anything.
About: Hi, I’m Kristen! I’m based in New Hampshire and have been working with animals for several years. I have hands-on experience both personally and in a shelter environment, giving me a strong understanding of a wide range of animal needs and behaviors. I currently have two cats of my own and grew up around dogs, so I’m comfortable caring for both—as well as other types of pets. I’m flexible, dependable, and happy to help with everything from daily care to giving you peace of mind while you’re away. Whether you need a quick check-in, extended care, or just an extra hand, I’m here to help! I work full-time on a second-shift schedule (Thursday through Monday) in Peterborough, but I’m still available for housesitting and pet care with a bit of coordination. Because my schedule is a little unconventional, I may require additional support for certain bookings, but I’m always happy to discuss what works best for you and your pets. At this time, I prefer to provide care in clients’ homes, as I currently rent and have a cat who isn’t accustomed to dogs. This allows me to give your pets the attention they deserve while keeping them comfortable in their own environment.
About: My name is Natasha, and I am very passionate about caring for animals - I even worked for a rescue for many years! Part of why I love caring for animals with Rover is because I get to know and love so many new furry friends. I promise to treat your pets like my own, and give them love and care while you are away! I'm located in Amherst, on the border of Merrimack, and while I cannot offer boarding at this time as I have two young kids and a pup who has only been with us about 6 months and wouldn't do well yet with other pets in the home, I still would love to get the opportunity to spoil other animals in my area with love. I will treat your pets with respect and affection, and I am always happiest when I have a furry friend by my side. Please reach out with any questions, I look forward to meeting you and your four legged family members! I currently work full time remote, so I am home during the day every day and am able to keep good attention to my pup and any pups we watch. We treat every pup we watch as though they are our own. We absolutely love dogs, and will go out of our way to provide the best care possible.
About: I’m an animal lover with animals of my own!🩷🐾 From training my own pets, to taking care of friends and families, I’ve had a fair share of experience! :) I’m currently a full time student at UNH who works as a server on the weekends! My schedule is mainly open for you and your animal companion! 🩷 I’ve been walking dogs since I was a little girl, so I know the ins and outs! I’m sure of safety and precautions when taking care of my own pets and especially yours🩷
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is that animals have always been a part of my life, not just something I care for occasionally. Growing up in a big family, our home was always FULL of pets...dogs, cats, rabbits, 2 birds, fish, even an iguana—and I learned from an early age how to nurture and care for animals of all kinds. My mom owned a horse, and my dad’s one dog soon turned into three—then he brought home a rescue. Years later my mom brought home a litter of abandoned kittens, so compassion for animals has been a part of my life from the very beginning.. I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and ages, from playful puppies to senior pets who may need extra patience and medical support. I’m comfortable administering medication and paying close attention to pets with special needs. While in nursing school, I turned my love for animals into side work, walking dogs and providing overnight care for either dogs or cats. I treat every animal like my own, knowing how much they truly mean to the people who love them. Pet care fits into my routine very naturally. I’m a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. Your pet would have my full focus and lots of love. *For pups who aren’t used to stairs or have mobility concerns, we have a home elevator available so they won’t need to use any stairs.
“We love Emily and are so lucky to have found her. She does a great job caring for our crazy animals and is very reliable. We will absolutely continue to book with her.”
“Nathan’s communication is top notch and his love of dogs is immediately evident. I was nervous about letting someone into my home to care for my dog when I had to return to the office full time, but I am very comfortable with Nathan. I highly recommend.”
About: Dogs and cats have been a part of my life since I was a small child. From a young age, I was helping neighbors by letting their dogs out and watching their cats while they were away. I’ve grown up around all kinds of dogs—from my own tiny 7-pound Chihuahua to my dad’s large pack of hounds—and I’ve experienced every stage of life, from newborn litters to senior pets. With years of hands-on experience, I understand the unique needs and personalities of each animal, so you can trust that your pets are in caring, experienced hands. I currently just quit my full time job and I’m working on building my cleaning business. I’m excited to take on new pets to fill in my extra free time! I take pride in being a reliable and trustworthy caregiver for every pet I look after. I treat each dog and cat as if they were my own, giving them the attention, care, and affection they deserve. You can count on me to stick to schedules, follow instructions, and provide a safe, loving environment so your pets feel happy, comfortable, and well-cared-for while you’re away.
“Kathryn was a blessing to meet, and a joy to have as a walker, for my dog Juice. An owner of pitties, she handled him perfectly, even though he likes to pull. I look forward to hiring her again. As I'm sure, there will be more walks in future. Thank you so much for your time and dedication”
“Alexa was so wonderful! She replied to my inquiry quickly and then we texted back and forth without delay. She arrived on time, checked in and checked out via the Rover app, sent me a picture, and left a short but detailed Rover card about the visit. Alexa even brought Davey a little goodie bag; but I won't divulge the contents here so you are just as pleasantly surprised as I was! Davey was clearly well taken care of during the walk and that is all anyone could ask for when leaving their dog in someone else's hands.”
“I have a large, energetic four-year-old dog, and Maggie did a terrific job walking him. She was friendly and punctual, and my pup took to her right away. He came home tired and happy from his walk and is looking forward to seeing her again.”
“Heather was wonderful with my Golden Retriever Nell. She was reliable, always on time, and consistently took her for hour long walks and swims on our local horse trails and in our local pond, which was just what Nell loved. She took cute photos of their adventures to post for me, and kept her safe and content. She has been a real asset and I would highly recommend her. Nell is a young and energetic dog and Heather had no difficulty managing her and providing good care.”

“Allison walked my mini Goldendoodle, Ginger, around the neighborhood a few times a week and always brought her back happy and well-exercised. She was so caring and attentive, always making sure Ginger’s water bowl was full and that she was comfortable before leaving. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Ginger was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

“Megan is absolutely incredible. She treats our dog as if she were her own. She communicates regularly and keeps us informed. So very grateful to have Megan watch our Fina when we are away. Five stars and beyond!”
“I’d give 6 stars if i could. We left Sully for an extended period of time for the very first time, which of course came with parental nerves and concerns (especially since my dog has IBD, so he needs the extra care and attention) Ashton was incredibly responsive, accommodating, and understanding of our nerves, but his care for Sully quickly dissolved our nerves of leaving Sully with how well he cared for him. Ashton sent us morning/evening updates, pictures, and took care of our dog as if he was one of his own (so much so that we could tell Sully was sad to leave him!) Ashton is an amazing pup care giver, i’d recommend him 10/10 and will choose him 100x over next time we need a sitter (and i know Sully will be so excited to see him again)”
“Truly awesome service, Jo was super flexible with my late request and took amazing care of Missy. She sent photo updates to let me know what they were up to which was great to see. She asked thoughtful questions to make sure she understood everything about Missy to make sure she gave her a great stay. Missy had a ton of fun with Jo and I will 100% use her again!”
“Brooke took amazing care of our little dog Star! We left our chihuahua with her in April of 2023 for a week. We received daily updates with pictures. She was treated as part of Brooke's family and not just a dog. Star clearly enjoyed her time at Brooke's home. We will use again. Thank you Brooke!”
“Joshua, you were fantastic with my dog Slippy for the full 10 days. From the very beginning, I could tell how much care and attention you gave him. The regular updates and sweet photos meant the world to me and let me truly relax on my trip. Slippy came home happy, energetic, and clearly well-loved. I so grateful for everything you did. Thank you so much, Joshua — I would happily trust you with Slippy again anytime!”
“This was our first experience using Rover and we struck gold with Vanessa. She was communicative and kept us updated on our pups while we were away. Our dogs can be a handful as one is VERY high energy, but she clearly knew what she was doing and they came home happy and healthy. I would highly recommend her to watch your pups!”
“Our pup had a great time with Debra! I really appreciate that she took the time to meet with us to get to know our dog before we left her in her care. Debra was excellent at communicating and shared daily photos throughout the week. We would love to have Debra care for our dog again.”
“This was the best case scenario I could have imagined. My dog was cared for to the highest level and I feel like he is even more obedient after. Laura is very nice and accommodating!”
“I highly recommend Julia and Connor! We overnight boarded our dog for 1 night with them and they were great with her! She was spoiled rotten. I got tons of updates with pictures and she played non-stop with their adorable dog, Mango! Their yard is so pretty with a large fenced in space for running around. 10/10 experience! We definitely plan to leave Millie with them again soon.”
“Yingying was fantastic with Ace and I knew he was safe, which made my time away stress-free. I would have loved more photo updates but overall, I was very pleased. Would definitely recommend and will book again if/when needed.”
“Amanda and her family (including their awesome dog) took care of our pup as though she were their own. We received pictures and updates throughout her stay. We had great peace of mind knowing our little dog was receiving such ample love and attention. Our dog looks forward to a future stay with Amanda!”
“Katherine took great care of our pup while we were gone for a week. She sent us pictures and updates daily. Our dog was very happy and well cared for when we returned. I would highly recommend this Rover placement. This was our first experience with Rover - and we and our dog couldn't have been happier!”
“Frankie and Alice had a great time with Ralph, great walks and lots of cuddling for Alice. Frankie needs regular pills to stay healthy and he came back in better shape than when I dropped him off. Definitely will be a repeat customer!”
About: Dogs have been a part of my heart my whole life. Growing up we always had a dog in the house, big or small. Fast forward to now, my partner and I have fostered almost 40 dogs in recent years. Since then, I have cared for dozens of local dogs that are reactive, anxious, high energy, you name it. Whether it be a puppy who needs constant attention or an older dog that is set in their ways, I have handled it. Your dog(s) will be in caring, assured hands with me. I will care for any breed of any age, size or temperament. I currently work as a local dog walker, boarder and groomer. I am also home quite a bit as well. This allows me to take your pup on an adventure with me during the day where they can go on pack walks, explore and sniff or they can chill in the yard if that is more their style. I am fully insured and certified in canine first aid and CPR, so your dog is always in safe, capable hands. My family dogs are friendly, laid back and always welcome to new friends. My home is set up with multiple boundaries to allow dogs to have quiet time when needed.
“Christina was amazing with Minnie!!! They did so much, I can't believe it!! Minnie had an amazing "vacation" away from mom! Lots of play time, care and love!!! I 100% recommend Christina! Thank you again for an easy last minute request!!”
“Cherie was very communicative and flexible with timings. Sent me photos of Ralphie and he definitely looked very happy staying with her. Will use her services again in the future.”
“This was our first time leaving our dogs with a sitter. Lucille was great! She maintained great contact and was very in tuned to the nuances of each dog. I was thrilled that the dogs got exercise and went on lots of walks! Would definitely use Lucille again!”
About: My husband and I have been around dogs our entire lives and have hands-on experience caring for them in a home environment. Currently, we have a large, professionally trained dog who has helped us develop strong skills in structure, consistency, and understanding dog behavior. She was trained through 6 months, and we continue to reinforce that training daily, so I’m very comfortable with commands, routines, and maintaining a calm, well-balanced environment. We have experience with: • Large and high-energy breeds • Maintaining feeding schedules and routines • Reinforcing basic training and good behavior • Reading dog body language and temperament • Creating a safe, calm environment for multiple dogs For us, safety and attentiveness are second nature. We are always present, aware, and intentional about making sure every dog in our care feels comfortable, secure, and well looked after. Your dog will never feel like they’re in a kennel they’ll feel like they’re part of our family. Your dog’s stay will feel like a true home away from home, safe, loving, and tailored just for them. • Daily walks (morning, afternoon, and evening) plus plenty of outdoor time • Support with training and reinforcement of good habits, we’ve worked with professional trainers and are happy to continue that structure • Lots of snuggles, attention, and one-on-one care • Supervised playtime with our gentle, well-trained dog, Paris • Calm evenings with a consistent, comforting routine • Kind, dog-loving kids who interact gently and safely We’re highly attentive to each dog’s unique needs and energy level, whether they’re playful and active or more relaxed and cuddly. We’re happy to accommodate your dog’s individual sleeping routine to make them feel as comfortable as possible. Whether they prefer sleeping in a crate, on a dog bed, or having their own space to roam (including an entire floor if needed), we’ll follow your preferences and keep their routine consistent with what they’re used to at home. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos, so you can feel completely at ease knowing your dog is happy, cared for, and part of our family while you’re away. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are our top priorities. We provide a calm, structured, and impeccably clean home where dogs are always supervised and cared for with intention. To ensure a truly personalized, low-stress, luxury experience, we limit the number of dogs in our care. We typically host just one client at a time, if you have multiple dogs, we’re happy to accommodate your family together. We never exceed three dogs total, including our own, so every dog receives dedicated attention, comfort, and care. Dogs are never left unattended for long periods, and all interactions, whether with our dog Paris or my children, are closely monitored to ensure safe, positive experiences. Paris is well-trained, gentle, and accustomed to being around other dogs. We take time to understand each dog’s routine, preferences, and temperament so we can provide a consistent and comfortable stay. Feeding schedules, exercise, and any specific instructions are followed closely. Our home is designed to feel like a second home, not a kennel, where your dog can relax, feel safe, and be genuinely cared for. ***We take trust and safety very seriously and are committed to following your dog’s routine as closely as possible. This includes accommodating any feeding method or dietary needs, whether that’s raw food, fresh or home-cooked meals, kibble, or more specific requirements like low-protein or other restricted diets. We carefully follow your instructions to ensure consistency, safety, and your dog’s overall well-being.*** We also provide regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and confident while you're away. We understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable with who is caring for your dog. When we've have used Rover for Paris, we always appreciated the opportunity to meet beforehand, so we are more than happy to offer a meet-and-greet prior to booking. This gives you the chance to see our home, ask any questions, and feel confident in the safe, calm, and personalized care your dog will receive while staying with our family.
“Rosie was very happy and well taken care of. Jessica went out of her way to make sure she ate since Rosie was homesick and not eating her dry food. I was updated daily with pictures.”
