“Anjaliben was an excellent host for my fur babies Bear and Chubbs. From our first meeting I knew that I made the right decision with how welcoming she was. Bear and Chubbs were calm themselves for being with someone besides our family. This was a first time boarding experience for them and I. Medication was also given without any problems. I would highly recommend Anjaliben for her services that she provides. Bear and Chubbs have found their second home for vacations away from home.”


“Kelsey & Conor were amazing with George!! He settled in immediately with their two dogs, Brody and Beans, and had the best week ever. Daily walks, constant play, and by the end he was lounging on their furniture like he owned the place. They sent photos and updates without us having to ask, and were very flexible with drop-off and pickup over a busy holiday week. He came home happy and completely worn out. Could not recommend them more!!”

“Jenny and her husband are the best dog sitters we’ve ever had! One of our pups got a little sick, and he they took every precaution to make sure he was okay. From calling the vet, sending us updates, and sleeping with him at night to make sure he was okay, they treated our dogs just like they were their own. They really put us at ease and we always know that our dogs are in good hands when they go to visit!”

“Bri has been wonderful with our pup, both for a daytime stay and a week long stay. She has a great setup and separates small and bigger dogs so everyone gets time outside and gets along. Our dog always comes home happy and tired from her adventures!”

“Phyllis was fantastic!!! She kept in touch with us frequently for an update on how Domino was doing, which put our minds at ease. We really appreciated the report card when we returned. It was very obvious that Domino enjoyed her! We will definitely request her again."”

“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!”

“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.”

“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!”

“Jeslyn was so sweet! She arrived at the car with treats to pick up my pup, and kept her comfortable and was well taken care of. Great communicator, I received plenty of pictures throughout her stay. Will definitely book again!”

“Hilary and her husband were awesome and my dog couldn’t have had a better time. I got plenty of updates and he was so happy when I picked him up, would have them watch him again anytime”

“Stephanie was great - we did a meet and greet and then had our kiddos with her for the weekend. They came back happy and tired from all the fun. She was communicative and super friendly. Will absolutely book her again. Thanks Stephanie!”

“Max had a very nice stay. Family is very friendly and accommodating. Max seemed to have a great time. Alison sent us pictures during his stay. Would highly recommend this individual for care again. Looking forward to our next stay. 5 stars all the way !!!”

“Kristina was incredible! It was my first time booking a boarding session with Rover and she was so easy to work with sent me plenty of detailed updates about her fun weekend with Watson. She helped to make everything go smoothly! Thank you!!”

“Eric took such great care of Kobe. He was so responsive, accommodating to Kobe’s needs, and was so gracious when traffic delayed our pick up. We will definitely be booking Eric again”

“Hali was incredibly kind, professional, and accommodating. She took everything in stride despite delays in my travel and with patience as times for drop off and pick up changed as a result. I would absolutely recommend her to other pet parents! Thank you, Hali ☀️”

“Our cat had never been alone for extended time before. Mary was very kind, spending time with him to play and make sure that he was comfortable with her. She was reliable and tool of his needs and kept us updating with Oreo's well being, which made us feel at ease while away.”


“Megan did an awesome job caring for our fur babies when we were away. She gave our cat meds and followed all cat instructions extremely well. She was also very communicative. We are thankful she was able to care for our girls.”

“Both kitties were in great moods when we got home. They seemed really happy with their visits and we loved all of the extra touches Jacqueline M. provided. Super happy with Jacqueline and Rover. They take the anxiety away from worrying about who will watch our kitties when we are away.”


About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and understand that every cat has a unique personality and routine. Whether your cat loves to play, prefers quiet companionship, or simply needs someone to keep them fed and comfortable, I’ll provide patient, reliable, and compassionate care.

“Julia has been absolutely amazing! We’ve booked with her twice before, but this time one of our cats needed a little extra care, including oral medication and an ointment. Julia handled everything perfectly and adapted so well to our cat’s needs. She was communicative and very responsive throughout the entire stay. Knowing she was taking care of our cats gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. We highly recommend her!”

“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 had the honor of taking care of two cats in my adulthood who made me realize that the connection between a person and a cat is very genuine and beautiful. In my free time as a volunteer at an animal shelter, I now interact with cats across a spectrum. This includes kittens to senior cats with health issues, as well as every cat in-between. I am confident in my ability to interpret cat body language and social cues as to ensure a healthy and comfortable level of interaction with your cat.

“Gia was well cared for! Barbara provided pictures each day and Gia seemed to like her a lot. All instructions were followed perfectly as well. Would definitely book with her again!”

About: I'm dedicated to providing top-notch care for your beloved pets. With years of experience, I offer reliable pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits tailored to your furry friend's needs. Whether it's cuddle time, play sessions, or simply ensuring they're fed and watered, your pet's well-being is my priority. Rest assured, I'm committed to maintaining their routine and providing companionship and affection while you're away. My schedule can easily accommodate the needs and preferences of your pup, as I am home full time. I can provide frequent potty breaks and walks for your fur baby, as needed. We have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space for your dogs to play and run. When walking dogs, I use a standard leash, in addition to a hands-free waist leash, to ensure your pup stays safe.
About: I've had 3 dogs in my life and when I was old enough I trained 2 of them with basic commands. I usually help my aunt with watching her dog which includes bathroom breaks, staying over night, and hanging out with him during the day. I've also watched him after he had surgery to make sure he didn't mess with the wound. I'm a part time college student and I work during the weekend. I'm mostly free during the week after 11 on Mondays and Wednesdays and 1 on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Some Fridays I'm free before 1. I have a fenced yard and a pool with a small dog who loves running around and swimming(our big one passed recently), I give my dog baths, I take her for walks, play with her, feed her, clean her space. When I watch others pets I make sure to clean up if they make a mess, that they go potty before I leave and have a full bowl of food and water depending on how long they will be alone for.

“Eileen was amazing! She took exceptionally good care of our buys while we were away, kept up apprised of how they were doing with lots of photos and notes. She is the absolute best. She even got our fat baby to play—a lot. She made this anxious cat momma feel so secure while away on vacation.”

About: I’ve always had dogs of all ages and breeds in the family. It is fulfilling giving dogs their best life possible. We will treat your dogs like part of our family. I have a flexible job that allows me to provide care for animals throughout the day. My wife is also extremely involved and we enjoy spending our time around animals. I have a mini golden doodle and am constantly aware of the potential dangers to her. My main goals are to keep your dog comfortable and to not send them home with a vet bill.
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!
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.
“Briana is simply amazing at her job! She’s so responsive and truly knows how to take care of the animal or animals she’s sitting for or visiting with. She’s detail oriented and conscientious. We can’t thank her enough for all that she did for our cat. We will for sure book her again!”

“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.”

“What can I say?! The best of the best with the best friend of Roswell, Piggie! Brijana is an excellent dog mom, and she did the best job ever. I am very happy that I found her through Rover. She is extremely knowledgeable about dog behavior and training, and she has a unique vibe that anyone can connect with. Roswell loved the time with Piggie, his new best friend. She kept me posted about Roswell, and she shared the cutest pictures of these two besties playing or napping together. Thank you very much!!!”

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.
About: I genuinely believe I was put on this planet to care for animals. From dogs and cats to small mammals and wildlife, I’ve done it all! I have experience with pretty much any creature you can think of and maybe even some you can’t, lol. Seniors and those with special needs will always have a huge place in my heart. I promise to make your companion feel as loved as possible while you are away! Life landed me in a position to work from home/renovate our house so I am home almost all the time. I figured I’m so used to caring for animals anyway, I may as well help you with peace of mind while you’re away and I can make a few bucks doing something I love that I’m genuinely good at. We have a fenced in yard and live in a dog-friendly, super walkable neighborhood. My biggest goal is to have your companion be as comfortable and feel as loved as possible while you’re away, so any details you can share with me to keep them as close as possible to their routine would be amazing!

“Megan and her family were absolutely terrific - my dog Laverne loved it! I don’t think Laverne noticed my leaving when I dropped her off this morning. She was so happy to be there! I wasn’t entirely certain she was ready to go home either. if you were looking for a nice family atmosphere this is the sitter for you!”

“At the last minute I was scheduled to work a very long day and found Hendry right away. The experience was great! He always kept me updated through out the day and sent many (dope) pictures of my pups. Didn’t worry about them at all. Very nice and informative. I would definitely come back to him again.”

About: I can’t remember a time I didn’t have a pet of some sort under my care! From dogs, to birds, to fish, to frogs, I’ve really done it all! While I don’t have a furry friend of my own yet in vet school, I would love to take yours in and treat them like my own. I’ve already dedicated my life to the wellbeing of animals—why not include yours in that too! I’m currently a veterinary student so my schedule is a bit dynamic! I’m free 24/7 over the summer, but starting in September my schedule becomes a bit more dynamic. Feel free to reach out and see if our availabilities are a match! I live in a residential area with sidewalks (and a park!) perfect for daily walks, and I even have a fenced-in yard for extra play time. No other furry friends currently—so all of my attention will be on your baby!

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 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.

It was so nice feeling relieved; knowing that my dog's having a good time with a good caring family while i was at work. I highly recommend! Thank you so much, Shanee & the family. I shall be back for sure.”

“If you are looking for an experienced, considerate, and dedicated dog walker/sitter, then you've found your match! Gregory has provided dog walks and overnight care for our 60lb hound mix multiple times over the last few months and we couldn't be happier with the care he provides. He is incredibly communicative, provides very detailed updates after every walk (with plenty of pictures included), and has shown the utmost dedication to understanding our dog Izzy and her specific behavioral needs. We have worked with many positive reinforcement trainers in the past to address our pups over-excitability and leash reactivity and Gregory using much of the same language as these dog trainers when discussing strategies he used on his walks with Izzy to help redirect and keep her focused and safe. Our pup is very scent driven on walks which can require a lot of patience and steady redirection, and we are so grateful for how kind and gentle Gregory is when handling Izzy. We've only had one overnight experience with Gregory so far and he took great care of our home and left the house spotless! He also ensured us that he only books one overnight stay at a time to avoid any conflicts in schedule and make sure our dog has company throughout the night and to keep her safe in the event of an emergency. All that being said, you will have no regrets choosing with work with Gregory and we feel very fortunate to have found him!”

About: I've taken care of pets of all kinds since I was very young, from birds to cats and lizards to dogs, being tasked to walk, care for, feed, and just generally oversee. I am also a current Pre-veterinarian undergrad, and am confident in my taught abilities to both handle and treat animals. I love working with any and all animals, and am absolutely thrilled to be working with your furry friends! I'm a fresh animal science graduate from the University of Delaware, and have a pretty flexible schedule. Inquire with what you need, and I'll let you know if the times align! I currently have a very eccentric 3 year old, and as such have experimented a lot in the safest possible options for your pets! I am super confident I can provide a safe environment where trust can be built and your pet is safe.
“Matthew has been awesome with my pups! He walks them every weekday like clockwork, and I never have to worry because he’s DEPENDABLE. The highlight of my workday is getting THE BEST PICS he sends—they always brighten my day. Thank you for taking such great care of my babies, Matthew. We really appreciate everything you do!”
“Chris was great with our puppy Ygritte. He is super responsive and gave us map and picture updates on his walk with our puppy. Will definitely use him again. Thanks again Chris!”

“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: On a personal level, I have cared for and been family with dogs my entire life. As I got older, I found my current dog who has transformed my love and respect for dogs into something indescribable. After rescuing her at 3 months old, I have trained and raised her into a beautiful and fully-realized working-line dog. I have experience in advanced training of dogs that ranges from day-to-day obedience to scent imprinting and mind puzzles for high-drive/working breeds that require the mental stimulation. Regardless of your dog's personal needs, I will ensure that those needs are met and addressed in a fulfilling and rewarding way that will leave them feeling loved and satisfied. Depending on the week, you can expect to see me available up to five times in a week! I will do weekends and holidays without question. Every pet has their own specific and individualized needs. This knowledge will help me determine what is needed for your pet, such as longer/fast-paced walks to exercise a high-drive breed or a leisurely stroll for the beloved seniors. Drop-Ins will entail evaluating your pet's needs and addressing them accurately and satisfactorily.

We have a fence at my house that allows my dog at home to have a wide open space for playing and exploring. He also receives many bones for good behavior throughout the day.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember.

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!

“Kelsey & Conor were amazing with George!! He settled in immediately with their two dogs, Brody and Beans, and had the best week ever. Daily walks, constant play, and by the end he was lounging on their furniture like he owned the place. They sent photos and updates without us having to ask, and were very flexible with drop-off and pickup over a busy holiday week. He came home happy and completely worn out. Could not recommend them more!!”

“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!”

“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.”

“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!”

“Hilary and her husband were awesome and my dog couldn’t have had a better time. I got plenty of updates and he was so happy when I picked him up, would have them watch him again anytime”

“Stephanie was great - we did a meet and greet and then had our kiddos with her for the weekend. They came back happy and tired from all the fun. She was communicative and super friendly. Will absolutely book her again. Thanks Stephanie!”

“Max had a very nice stay. Family is very friendly and accommodating. Max seemed to have a great time. Alison sent us pictures during his stay. Would highly recommend this individual for care again. Looking forward to our next stay. 5 stars all the way !!!”

“Hali was incredibly kind, professional, and accommodating. She took everything in stride despite delays in my travel and with patience as times for drop off and pick up changed as a result. I would absolutely recommend her to other pet parents! Thank you, Hali ☀️”

“Brijana is the best Rover we have experienced by far! She treated our dog like her own and was very attentive to her needs as a puppy. She was very communicative with us the whole time by sending us daily pictures and videos of our puppy. She took our puppy on walks frequently and followed all of our instructions. We would recommend Brijana to anyone looking for someone they trust to watch their dog :)”

“Hands down the most amazing sitter! The pictures and videos sent showed how loved my baby was. So much so when I came to pick her up. She greeted me and went right back into their home. Will 100% book with her again and highly recommend”


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.
“Ferris had a great time staying with Kerry - We got periodic updates with photos and a very detailed report upon pickup. Ferris got a lot of attention and seemed really comfortable at Kerry’s place.”

“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%.”

“Our two dogs had such a great time that we were worried they were not going to want to come home with us. I also like the realtime Facebook footage and photos that you can view while you are vacation.”

About: Hi! I've been fostering dogs from a local shelter for a little over 2 years. In that time, I've helped about 20 dogs find their forever families. There's been dogs in our home ranging in age from 9 months to 9 years, all with a different story. Abused, neglected, owner surrender, stray, court case holds, seniors, puppies, overweight, super skinny and anything else you can think of! I treated them all with empathy and showered them affection to earn their trust and love. Many of my former fosters come for visits while their owners are on vacation. Any pup that comes through my doors will be cared for and treated with respect, just like my fosters! I work at a school, so I'm currently on summer break. When school is in session, I work Monday to Friday 9-1, and I'm off evenings, weekends and holidays. I also work in the town in which I reside, so my commute is less than 5 minutes, meaning I'm close by! I have a fully fenced in yard, crates and dog beds in various sizes, bowls, blankets and mounds of toys. I'm also comfortable administering medication if needed.
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.
“Elizabeth took great care of my old boy for 5 days. Her consistent updates and photos made me feel such at ease knowing he was in good hands. She was also very flexible and great to work with. Would definitely have her watch Rexxar again. Thank you!!”
