“Jenny and her family have become our dog’s second home. Our mini poodle is a bit nervous but you wouldn’t know it by how quickly he felt comfortable with Jenny. She cares for him very well and sends loads of videos and cute pics so I didn’t even get a chance to miss him while we travelled. I would highly recommend Jenny to anyone looking for someone to love their pet, although I’d rather keep her to myself!”
“Anjali took very good care of my pups while I was away. She messages back quickly with correspondence. She also sent pic updates, which I love and appreciates so much. I highly recommend this rover sitter. Her son also had a lot of fun playing with one of my pups. All and all, very positive experience. Thank you!”
“I have never had better place to leave my sweet Apollo, he had an excellent time! Kelsey & Conor were sending updates and images constantly. I would highly recommend them!”
“Aivy was amazing! I can’t say enough positive things. She took the best care of Herbie to the point I didn’t think he was going to want to come home. She sent tons of pictures and loved on him like he was her own.”
“David did a wonderful job watching my pup! He sent pictures of her everyday along with updates. She seemed very happy when we saw her afterwards. I’d trust him with her again!”
About: Pet Care Experience I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors who need a little extra love and patience. I’ve helped with walks, feeding, giving meds, and of course plenty of belly rubs and cuddle time. I treat every dog like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. What Sets Me Apart I really take the time to get to know each dog’s personality and quirks. Whether it’s helping a puppy learn good habits, supporting an older dog who moves at a slower pace, or sticking to a routine to keep your pup comfortable, I always adjust to what your dog needs. I also pay close attention to little details—like favorite toys, treats, or special instructions—so you can feel at ease knowing your best friend is in caring hands. Since I work from home, I have plenty of flexibility to give your dog the attention they deserve throughout the day. I can easily step away for walks, playtime, or check-ins, and I love having the company of dogs while I work. Whether it’s sticking to a set feeding and potty schedule or adding in some extra cuddle breaks, I’m able to keep your pup’s routine consistent and stress-free. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my care, I make sure they’re in a secure and pet-friendly environment—free of hazards, with plenty of space to relax and play. I always follow your instructions closely, whether it’s diet, medication, or special routines, so your pup feels right at home. When caring for dogs in a client’s home, I treat the space with the same respect as I would my own. I keep doors locked, routines consistent, and make sure your dog feels safe and loved until you return. Building trust is important to me, so I provide updates, photos, and quick check-ins to give you peace of mind while you’re away.

“Bri took great care of our Luna. Luna can be a bit anxious in new situations and Bri handled this so well and accommodated her needs. Luna also can prefer humans over dogs and wants to be a lapdog and Bri let her hangout with her and sent lots of updates. We will definitely be back!”

About: Hello! My name is Cookie, and I have a genuine love for animals of all kinds. As a pet parent myself to a 9-year-old Yorkie Poo and a 3-month-old kitten, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I have spent much of my life caring for dogs and cats and have experience pet sitting for family, friends, and neighbors while they were away on vacation. Through these experiences, I have cared for pets with a variety of personalities, energy levels, and needs. What sets me apart is the time, attention, and affection I can provide. As a newly retired individual, I have a flexible schedule and can devote plenty of one-on-one care to your pets. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I am happy to accommodate their routine. My home features a secure fenced yard with plenty of room for dogs to safely explore and play. I strive to create a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment where pets feel loved and cared for while their owners are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and look forward to giving your fur babies the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. As a newly retired individual, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am available every day beginning at 7:30 a.m., which gives me plenty of flexibility to accommodate your pet's schedule and needs.

Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and I have the time and availability to ensure your fur babies receive the love, attention, and care they deserve while you're away. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where pets are treated like family. In my home, pets are welcome on the furniture and are free to relax wherever they feel most comfortable. Dogs are taken for walks approximately every two hours and have access to my securely fenced backyard for supervised outdoor play and fresh air throughout the day. I follow each pet owner's feeding schedule and care instructions to ensure their routine stays consistent while they're away. In addition to meeting their basic needs, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and cuddles. As a newly retired pet lover, I have the time to provide personalized care and companionship, helping your pets feel happy, safe, and right at home. If caring for pets in a client's home, I will follow their established routines and provide the same level of attention, affection, and care to keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment.
“Brijana is a great lady. That being said good people helping good people. My dog Blu loved his time with Bri and gets so excited to see her when she stops in! Highly recommend her just as long as you are not taking my time slots with her :)”
“Zoey had a wondefurful 5 night stay with David and Phyllis. Our very anxious pup made herself at home quickly and enjoyed all of the attention she got during her stay. This was Zoey's first time work David and Phyllis, but I'm sure it won't be her last. Thank you both for taking such great care of her!!”
“I used Hilary and Sam to take care of my beloved furry friend while I went on vacation, and I couldn’t be happier with the service provided. They demonstrated exceptional professionalism and genuine affection for my dog. Their communication was excellent, providing regular updates and even sending pictures of my pup having a great time. I wholeheartedly recommend them and hopefully they will have space available when I schedule my next vacation.”

“Brjanna was amazing! She gave us lots of updates and pics during our week away. It was so comforting to know our 4 cats were well taken care of!!!

She’s our go to from now on!! Thanks sooooo much Brjanna!!! ????”

“Janelle is WONDERFUL. She took such great care of my cats and they absolutely adored their time with her. She sent great updates and pictures, and made my trip so stress free when it came to worrying about them. I can't recommend her enough!”
About: I’ve pet sat for a couple years now, my most regular customer has multiple dogs, one cat, four birds, and a ton of snakes, so I’m well equipped to watch a variety of animals! Throughout my life I’ve had multiple dogs, all different breeds, German shepherds, shih tzu’s, Boston terriers, and more, so in my opinion there’s no animal too big or too small that I can’t befriend! I’m a college student but my schedule is pretty flexible outside of classes, though during school breaks I’m completely free and I do own a car so I can travel a good distance to wherever your home resides! I will not be caring for pets in my own home, but when I’m caring in your home I’m more then happy to accommodate for whatever your pet needs, such as using a leash to go potty, or getting them to take pills if need be!
“We have used Eileen many times and are always so happy with her pet sitting. She sends lots of photos and is really thorough in addressing anything that comes up while we’re away. We highly recommend her!”

“Danielle has been doing a great job with my 5 month old puppy. Bella comes back from daycare relaxed and happy. she takes time to make sure Bella is not eating grass or doing the things young puppies do. I would highly recommend Danielle.”
“I have a lazy 8 month old Labradane that I've never left with anyone before that isn't me or my fiancé. He's a very sensitive stomach little boy and his health is so important as he's in training to become my service dog so I wasn't going to leave him with just anyone. I contacted Brijana and set up a meet and greet. Once I met her I wasn't even worried. Her and her boyfriend were so sweet and asked great questions to get to know my boy, he instantly loved them too. First day with her and I felt bad having to go pick hemingway up because he was having so much fun!!! She was very informative, timely, professional, and just extremely welcoming. Cannot wait for his next stay and I highly recommend her. She's knowledgeable and pairs all of her animals accordingly!”

About: My love for dogs is endless. I've been involved in dog rescue for over 12 years. The fun dogs, the shy dogs, the dogs with no direction and the perfect dogs, dogs of all ages. A very quiet home with playtime if they want it or quiet time that they need. I provide lots of enrichment and a full secure yard where they can run and play, or just sun bathe. I have been dog sitting for years and I've also been a part of a dog rescue where I've seen everything. Each one of our family members deserves love and respect and a little extra when their family is on vacation. It should be a relaxing time for our canine family too! I pride myself on the reaction of my visitors when they come back over and over!!! My schedule allows me to give your family members all the time and attention they could ask for in my home. I never want your furry family to feel like they aren't comfortable and I will engage with them as much or as little as they would like while giving them the space they need if they choose. I have a fully fenced in yard, but no one is out in the yard unattended. I also have the ability to completely separate dogs with separate exits/entrances. All dogs are able to go on couches and dog beds throughout the house and if they need their own space, I have that capability as well. The separated room has it's own tv, couch and is where I spend most of my day working. If your pup(s) is friendly, they are able to keep us company throughout the house. Smoke-free home.

I shall be back for sure.”

Thank you Bri from the bottom of my heart for the love and care Rosie received. If I come back, you will Def be my Rosie person. ❤️❤️❤️”

“Hendry was so loving, patient, and attentive with my little 4 month old pup. She was nervous with the other dogs at first but he took the time to let her get acclimated slowly until she was confident enough to play on her own. How do I know this? He sent lots of updates and well as gorgeous photos of her with his dog Nova and others. He also took the time to chat with me a bit about ways to help her gain confidence. I’m very happy with Margot’s stay with Hendry and his beautiful family, would definitely recommend him and book again!”
“Great first experience using Rover. Michael and Marceleena made us feel at ease and gave us some great pointers on puppy nibbling along with a welcome toy that my pup loves. I can clearly see why they have a 5 star rating. Looking forward to continuing to use them in the near future.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 20 years of hands-on pet care experience, including over 8 years as a professional pet sitter and dog walker with Achilles Total Pet Care, LLC. I’ve worked with dogs of every size, breed, and personality, including rescues, seniors and pups with special needs. My passion for animals started in 2004 when we adopted our first dog, Amber, who had never even been on a leash. We trained her from the ground up and she changed my life. From 2007 to 2009, I volunteered at the Voorhees Animal Orphanage doing community outreach, dog walking and was part of the "Pit Partners" program focusing on pit bull type breeds, many of whom needed extra exercise, patience, structure, and love. Since then, I’ve continued to dedicate my time and heart to helping dogs thrive. I also have over 15 years personal experience caring for our special needs dog, Max, who has severe environmental and food allergies, anxiety, and needs daily medication and ongoing management. I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet—and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m known for providing loving, dependable, and individualized care, whether it’s a long walk, playtime, medication, or just keeping your pet safe and happy while you’re away from home. My clients become like family—because their pets already are. ❤️ Let’s connect—I’d love to meet your furry family member! I’m available part-time for dog walks and drop-in pet visits while my kids are at school, activities, or camp. I occasionally offer pet sitting services when my schedule allows. I’m reliable, loving, and treat every pet like family! When I care for pets, whether it’s during a walk, a drop-in visit, or an occasional overnight stay at your home, safety and trust are my top priorities. I make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure by sticking to their routine, staying aware of any triggers and keeping them safe from any hazards. I maintain open communication with you, providing updates and photos, so you always know your pet is in good hands. At your home, I respect your space, follow your rules, and ensure your pet feels at ease.
“This was our first time using Karen and she did a wonderful job. My anxious pup settled in nicely and was very happy in all of the pictures Karen sent. Loved the updates too. Will definitely use Karen again.”
“Julia has walked our excited beagle Bella for the last week as we’ve adjusted to being new parents and she’s been perfect- shows up on time every day, takes Bella for a 60 minute walk in the freezing cold, and provides thorough reports afterwards! Super professional and prompt, we couldn’t be happier and look forward to continuing to use her services!”
About: I've personally owned and fostered several dogs, cats, and fish throughout my 24 years of life, and am very knowledgeable and experienced in handling all of their unique needs. I am very organized and detail-oriented and can guarantee that any instructions you have for your pet's care will be followed exactly as requested. I also have local vets and Petsmart on speed dial in the unlikely case of emergency. Beyond being qualified though, I truly love spending time with animals and ensuring they are as happy and healthy as can be! Some people on here are only interested in the money and do the bare minimum, but I can personally guarantee that I will go above and beyond to ensure you and your pet are happy! I work remotely, so I'm available pretty much anytime! Please check my calendar for availability prior to requesting services, I'll have it updated when I am unavailable. I promise to treat each pet like their own individual, making sure each one gets the proper love and care they deserve through long walks, scheduled food times, and endless pets!
About: I have taken care of dogs since 5 years ago helping friends and family when they needed help. I always had a connection with dogs and love to take care of them. I have a part-time job that gives me time to take care of pets weekdays and weekends mostly in the mornings. I can accommodate my schedule too. I make sure that all the necessities and schedules any dog has are completed before leaving, making sure the dog feels comfortable and safe are my top priorities.
“So glad I found Bracey! My dog Rigley loves her! You can tell she’s a true dog lover who loves what she does. I have no worries when Bracey is visiting/walking Rigley. I highly recommend Bracey/Sniffari Strolls. She’s one of the good ones.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12! I have been my family friends’ go-to pet sitter when they travel and take care of my brother’s dog for weeks at a time. I’m currently in school and my schedule varies, but I usually have free time in between classes and would love to use my extra time to spend with your pet! I will respect your home as my own and love your pet as my own too. I am a very neat, organized, and dependable person.
About: I am a former playroom attendant at Dogtopia Doggy Daycare. I’ve cared for cats for 20+ years. I’ve cared for dogs for 18 years. I have minimal experience with training animals and some experience administering medication to pets. I am available to take dogs on walks or to dog parks. I am also available for pop-in visits. I am currently on summer break so I have plenty of free time to care for your furry loved ones. I am available day and night to care for your animal. I can come into the home and provide care if needed. I have a fur child of my own that is very sociable and can come play with your pup.
About: I’ve take care of animals since I adopted my cat in 2006. Since then, I adopted my first dog (Maltipoo) in 2008, a rabbit in 2014, a second dog (Belgian Malinois) in 2018, and a third dog (Golden Retriever Mix) in 2023. I am looking to make a little pocket money during medical school. My availability is entirely subjective to my school’s schedule so I’m often only available weekends. My dogs are crate trained and leash trained so I have the most experience with that. I am more than willing to be flexible and learn your pet’s routine.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5 we’ve always been a dog family. Even now at the age I am we still have dogs we walk them, take them outside every couple hours and feed them twice a day I have a passion for animals. Pet care is already part of my daily routine. I make time every day to feed pets, provide fresh water, take them on walks, play with them, and make sure they get plenty of love and attention. Throughout the week, I keep a consistent schedule and can easily adjust my routine to meet each pet’s specific needs, whether that’s extra walks, medication, or sticking to their normal feeding schedule. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I care for every pet as if they were my own. In my home or a client’s home, I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while also keeping their environment clean and safe. I provide updates with photos and messages so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for during their time away.
“Amazing sitter. She took such good care of my older dog over the holidays and kept me updated on how he was doing. If I wasn't moving across the country I would definitely book Cindy again.”
“Stephanie took great care of our senior dog for 3 days and 2 nights while we were away. In addition to feeding and walking her, Stephanie also gave her medication and wiped her skin per our vets orders. Our girl was very comfortable for her stay! Thank you, Stephanie!”
“We just noticed that we haven't left any reviews for Kirby's stays at Nark and Breakfast! This is truly Kirby's home away from home. His second family. We can go away knowing Kirby is safe in their loving care????????”
“Sarah made me very comfortable leaving my Axel with her ! I actually think he hated to leave when we picked him up ..I will plan to use her everytime when the moment arises ..she's very compassionate and caring which was a plus because Axel was a rescue and very nervous ! She is the best !”
“Brijana is a great lady. That being said good people helping good people. My dog Blu loved his time with Bri and gets so excited to see her when she stops in! Highly recommend her just as long as you are not taking my time slots with her :)”
“I used Hilary and Sam to take care of my beloved furry friend while I went on vacation, and I couldn’t be happier with the service provided. They demonstrated exceptional professionalism and genuine affection for my dog. Their communication was excellent, providing regular updates and even sending pictures of my pup having a great time. I wholeheartedly recommend them and hopefully they will have space available when I schedule my next vacation.”
“5 stars all the way. Our Gunner is old and has terrible anxiety when left alone. Danielle truly went out of her way to make him feel comfortable. She sent us daily pictures and updates which was so appreciated. He looked so comfortable and happy. I would highly recommend Danielle 100%.”

About: My love for dogs is endless. I've been involved in dog rescue for over 12 years. The fun dogs, the shy dogs, the dogs with no direction and the perfect dogs, dogs of all ages. A very quiet home with playtime if they want it or quiet time that they need. I provide lots of enrichment and a full secure yard where they can run and play, or just sun bathe. I have been dog sitting for years and I've also been a part of a dog rescue where I've seen everything. Each one of our family members deserves love and respect and a little extra when their family is on vacation. It should be a relaxing time for our canine family too! I pride myself on the reaction of my visitors when they come back over and over!!! My schedule allows me to give your family members all the time and attention they could ask for in my home. I never want your furry family to feel like they aren't comfortable and I will engage with them as much or as little as they would like while giving them the space they need if they choose. I have a fully fenced in yard, but no one is out in the yard unattended. I also have the ability to completely separate dogs with separate exits/entrances. All dogs are able to go on couches and dog beds throughout the house and if they need their own space, I have that capability as well. The separated room has it's own tv, couch and is where I spend most of my day working. If your pup(s) is friendly, they are able to keep us company throughout the house. Smoke-free home.
“Aubrey is fantastic! Her home is safe and welcoming. We have a giant breed, a newly 1 year old Newfoundland who is still very much in the puppy phase. He can be difficult to manage with his enthusiasm coupled with his size. She felt confident taking on that combination and our dog thrived. He is a lone pup in our home so he really enjoyed the company of the resident dog and other guests. We received daily updates along with photos of his stay. We will be booking again!”
“Eliana took such great care of our 5 month old chihuahua/chiweenie puppy while we were in town visiting the area. Our sweet pup felt safe, secure and cared for at her home and received loads of attention! We received numerous updates and photos that certainly reassured us our pet was happy and well while we were away. Highly recommend!!!”
“It was our first time booking this sitter and she was absolutely amazing. She sent me lots of pictures of my dog 🐶 and updates on how she’s doing. She was very quick in responding to my messages and very kind. My girl 🐕 came home the happiest. She had her best time there. I have rebooked this sitter for next month and will 💯 book her again in the near future. Can’t wait for my girl 🐕 go on another staycation at this sitter’s place. Cannot recommend enough. ❤️”
“Continuing excellent stays for our dog Bert. I’ve said this before Kevin does a fantastic job and understands big breeds well. Bert is always eager to run into his house Whenever he stays 🐾🐾🐾🐾”
“Many heartfelt thanks for taking care of our pup for the weekend! Gina was responsive and understanding and kept me updated to make me feel at ease even though my little guy is 4 years old. I knew he was in the care of someone who is genuine. Her family was super friendly also! Thanks so so much!!”
