Highly-rated overnight sitters - Elm
“Eileen is amazing!! This was my first time using Rover and booking my dog for dog boarding for my cruise vacation and it exceeded my expectations!!!!! I was super nervous and she was so welcoming from the beginning! She sent me daily pictures/updates so I never had to guess how my dog was doing & To top it all off , she even got my dog who can be picky about being around other dogs to like dogs now lol I highly recommend her for all of your dog needs 😬😬”
“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.”
“Ryan and his family took such great care of our girl. We got daily if not multiple updates and photos! We will be using Ryan and his family moving forward for all of our dog sitting needs. Book with Ryan and you won't be disappointed.”
“Monica was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was very flexible and accommodating to our scheduling needs. Kiyomi was immediately comfortable in her home. I will certainly use Monica for all my sitting needs.”
“Was so easy to schedule and book and super friendly and flexible ! Sent lots of pictures which was so nice ! Even treated my pup to some yummy blueberries! Can’t wait to have eve stay again sometime !”
“I was very happy with the care Luna received during her visit at Sarah’s! Luna has always been timid around other dogs, but she made some doggy friends while there, even letting them rest in her crate with her! Sarah took wonderful care of her, sending us pictures and even bathing her the day we picked Luna up! Definitely recommend Sarah and will have Luna visit again if we are out of town.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Hali as a dog sitter. The communication was great from the beginning and was easy and reassuring. She took great care of Ruby and even watched her as a 5 month old puppy. She sent pictures and videos of Ruby enjoying her time outside in her fenced in yard. She responded quickly to my check ins and made me feel comfortable leaving her. Ruby was happy and calm when we picked her up and I would highly recommend Hali as your dog sitter. I will be using her again when I need a dog sitter.”
“Our second time leaving our jack Russell mix terrier with Alyssa and Marcus and they were great. Our dog loves playing with their dog and they'd share photo updates throughout the days which we really appreciate. Highly recommend them as great dog sitters.”
“Kristina was so patient and sweet with Olive, who can be nervous and shy. By day 2, Kristina was sending us pictures of Olive belly up and happily napping next to Kristina on the couch and Olive completely made herself at home. Olive’s stay overlapped with a major heatwave, and Kristina made sure to get Olive out early in the AM for a nice walk each morning before it got too hot. I would definitely recommend Kristina for attentive and loving care for your pet!”
About: Why Choose Me? 🐾 Caring for dogs is something I’ve been doing my entire life. My family has never been without a dog, and now that I’m in my own home with my husband and our 2-year-old dog, I get to continue doing what I love—giving dogs a safe, comfortable, and loving place to stay. Over the years, my family and I have cared for the pets of friends and relatives more times than I can count, from overnight stays to month-long visits. Every dog who comes into our home is treated like family from the moment we meet them. We’re happy to give them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and, of course, lots of snuggles on the couch. 🐶❤️ Meet Ellie! 🐾 Our 2-year-old pup, Ellie, is a crazy, fun-loving girl with lots of excitable energy! She absolutely loves having other dogs around and is always ready to make a new friend. Whether it’s running around and playing, chasing each other in the yard, or simply hanging out together, Ellie loves the company of other pups. Because Ellie is so playful, she can be a great companion for dogs who enjoy having a furry friend around. Of course, I always take each dog’s personality and comfort level into consideration and make sure everyone gets the attention and space they need. A Home Away From Home 🏡 Our home is a place where dogs can truly feel at home. If your dog is used to sleeping in the bed, they’re welcome to do that here too! If you prefer that your dog stays off the furniture at home, we’ll absolutely do our best to maintain those boundaries and routines. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone else, so my goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both you and your dog. Your pet will receive the same patience, attention, affection, and care that I would want for my own. 🐾 I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pup and give them a loving home away from home while you’re away! Pet care is something I make a priority in my daily routine! I love making sure every pup gets plenty of attention, playtime, affection, and opportunities to feel comfortable and at home. I plan my schedule around the needs of the dogs in my care so they can enjoy a safe, loving environment while staying active and happy. Our fully fenced backyard provides a safe, spacious environment where dogs can play, explore, and enjoy fresh air alongside our friendly, playful dog, Ellie. We offer plenty of supervision, attention, and opportunities for fun, along with a comfortable crate option for dogs who prefer a quiet, cozy space to relax and recharge.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always helped my family care for them. Over the years, I’ve had 7 dogs and 2 cats, which has given me plenty of hands-on experience with different personalities and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, basic care, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. I’m available for evening check-ins and walks during the week, and I can also board pets on weekends. My schedule allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while making sure they feel comfortable and happy. I provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment for every pet in my care. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and get exercise, as well as one friendly dog and a cat who is used to being around dogs and gets along well with them. I can also crate your dog if needed and will always follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions you provide.
“I highly recommend David and Phyllis! They’re great people and really love dogs. We are so grateful to have them watch our dog, Toby!! Toby love’s going to their house which gives us a lot of piece of mind.”
“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!”

Cat caregivers near you - Elm
About: I’m a calm, patient, and attentive person who truly loves animals. I understand that cats need a balance of affection and independence, and I’m happy to move at their pace—whether that means playtime, quiet company, or just keeping their routine consistent
“Nicole did a great job checking in and feeding our cats. She provided us with pictures and daily updates. I would highly recommend her. Thank you Nicole for taking care of our cats.”
About: I have hands-on experience in feline care combined with a calm, detail-oriented approach that prioritizes each cat’s comfort and routine. I’ve worked in a feline-only veterinary practice, where I gained experience with handling cats of all temperaments, including shy, senior, and medically complex patients. I’m comfortable supporting medical needs such as administering oral medications and following detailed care instructions from veterinarians. I also have a strong focus on cleanliness and hygiene, including thorough litter box maintenance and keeping feeding and living areas clean and stress-free. Above all, I understand that every cat has their own personality and boundaries. I take the time to build trust at their pace, so they feel safe, respected, and cared for while you’re away.
“I am thrilled with Ashley's caringness..and experience. She even got my cat to stop hiding. When I was away during the blizzard..she made sure she made it to my house. I feel at ease knowing Clay is in great hands. Thank you Ashley..”
About: I’m a caring and dependable pet sitter who truly loves animals. I have experience caring for cats and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m happy to help with feeding, fresh water, playtime, litter box care, and plenty of attention and cuddles. I’m responsible, patient, and will treat your cat like my own!
“Greg was really great with our three cats! He took care to make sure everyone was ok during his daily drop ins, and was very thorough with all of the feeding and care tasks we had for him to do. Our cats loved him, he has a good way of relating to animals of all different personalities. Would not hesitate to recommend him to anybody for daily cat care.”
About: With 20 years of cat experience watching after kittens, mothers, seniors, special needs kitties, and all the cats in between, every cat has their own unique personality and preferences. I'm comfortable caring for one shy senior or a chaotic crew of kittens. I know when to engage a playful cat with a wand toy and when to give a grumpy cat their space. I'm skilled at giving medications, even diabetes shots, recognizing subtle signs of illness, and using treats to build trust with even the most skeptical felines.
“I used Rover as a last minute decision to board my cat while we moved from one home to another. Stephen(and his fiancé) were awesome! They answered questions i had prior without any delay. When i arrived to drop my cat they gave him his own space. They loved on him like he was their own so much that I’m not sure he wanted to leave with me. I was updated with pictures daily and I knew he was in good hands! We will definitely reach out in the future for vacations or whatever comes along!”
“Jennifer is AWESOME!!! She made special accommodations for my cat (Tango) to feel safe & loved and to acclimate to her home while I was away. Also, she sent me several pictures and videos throughout the visit to keep me at ease about his well-being. I certainly nominate Jennifer as being a 5-star pet sitter. She'll make sure your pet is treated well and taken GREAT care of while your away. I hope that our schedules line up again the next time I'm in need of a sitter. Thanks again, Jennifer. You're the Best-est!! 🙂😉”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Elm
“This was my Milo's 1st time ever being out of our home & with a stranger. I felt like a bad dog-mom leaving him daily and he wasn't too happy about the notion either. Seeing Eileen's patience & affection toward animals & receiving daily pics & videos of my boy all calmed my quills & assured me he was adjusting well & was in great hands.”
About: Hello! My name is Amanda, and I am 36 years old. On top of being an animal lover of all kinds my entire life, I have worked in pet stores, and Dog Kennels where I would distribute meds (oral and injection) as necessary and was a Dog Groomer for a family-owned shop for 15 years. We are lucky enough to have a very spacious fenced in yard where your babies can play and stay safe. Unfortunately, I am currently not taking any bigger breeds at the moment. This will not be a forever thing, it's just what works for our family right now. Thank you for understanding! Sadly, we lost our family dog not too long ago, but we have a hairless cat who is the most patient, lover girl you’d ever meet. Drop offs and pick-ups can be anywhere between 8am to 8pm. I have two small children, and I try to keep a nighttime routine. We can always make other arrangements; I am very easy to work with. If you would like your dog to be bathed right before picking up, we can arrange that as well! Dogs *MUST* be good with children and cats. I promise to love your animals and give them a happy & safe environment until you return! I cannot wait to meet you! I am currently a stay-at-home Mom! It will be easy to fit into your dog's schedule and cater to them as often as they need! I have huge 6ft privacy fenced in yard for play time and walks. We also have a beach and lake right across the street if that is something they would like!
About: I have taken care of animals all my life. I grew up with small pocket pets (rabbits) and birds. As an adult I have dogs, cats, chickens, horses, and alpacas - all of which live with me on my small farm. I have experience with giant breed dogs and higher energy dogs. I also know how and am comfortable giving medications. I have worked in the animal industry for the last 10 years. Ranging from boarding facilities for dogs and cats to veterinary offices. I also am currently volunteering with my therapy dog and we visit hospitals and schools. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom so my pets are with me all day. I take the dogs out for daily walks as well as other activities. I also have a large fenced in backyard for them to play in. I have a 1-acre fenced in yard for my babies (and yours!) to play in. All of my dogs are friendly and love to play with new friends. I also have cats (strictly indoor), horses, alpacas, and chickens on the property. New friends must be good with all animals as well as children if they are staying in the house. Children and other pets will never be left unsupervised with your fur baby. If I come to your home for care for your fur baby they will be spoiled with lots of attention and love
About: I am very good with dogs, because I pay attention to their body language. Dogs communicate through their eyes, body and barks. Similar to a person using sign language. Most communication is non-verbal and I definitely pay attention and make sure I treat every furry friend with respect and love. Dogs have feelings and like to socialize in healthy environments and that is what they will get with me as your dog sitter and / or dog walker. I will take your dog walking, I will check-in on your dog and play ball or tug of war with them, if that is what they like to do, I will provide water refills and food refills, even mix food upon request and follow instructions specific to your dog's need. I like to take dogs to the park, go jogging with dogs, belly rubs, hugs and playful affection. I like making dogs feel important, so they know they matter. This way, they feel happy and fulfilled while you are working or away on vacation, or away for that day or moment running errands. I am currently an entrepreneur. Trying to start my own pet business. Served, previously in the United States Air Force. Used to have an emotional support dog for 14 years who is no longer with us due to old age and health problems. That was my peace and joy who helped me through difficult times in my life. I actually feel happy spending time with dogs. Running with dogs, playing ball with dogs, training dogs, walking dogs, dog sitting and playing, cuddles and hugs! I make dogs feel important because they are our fur babies who deserve the best life can give them! I will give your dog fresh water, food, medication; if necessary, pay attention to their body language to figure out what they need from me to feel more comfortable and supported. If you have instructions or a routine I will follow those set of guidelines. I will keep all owners well informed with updated photos and possible videos on how their fur babies are doing! If they need a bathing that is extra, but I will clean your dog thoroughly after playtime. If, you want me to take your dog to the park, I love doing walks and runs in the park with your fur baby! Get all the extra energy out, so when you come home they are well satisfied and content. I have a house and a yard. Yard is not fully fenced in yet, but currently working towards fixing it or getting a new fence. My house is dog proof to keep all fur babies safe and happy, but there are always other options available to keep your dog as comfortable as possible. Depending on the service you hire me for pertaining to your pet.
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Purtika provided! They were reliable, communicative, and treated our pet like family. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter on Rover.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so loving and caring for them has always come naturally to me! Over the years, my family has had two Boxers, a Goldendoodle, and a Rottweiler, so I’ve been around dogs with all different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve always had a huge love for dogs, and that’s a big reason why I decided to start offering pet care through Rover. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for your dog while you’re away, and my goal is to give you that peace of mind. Whether your pup loves to play, go for walks, cuddle on the couch, or just have some extra attention and companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. I also have a friendly, playful 10-month-old Boxer of my own who absolutely loves other dogs and is always excited to make a new friend! 🐶🐾 I’ll treat your dog like part of the family and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. ❤️ Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work from home most days. This allows me to give dogs consistent attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. I’m able to stick closely to your dog’s usual schedule, whether that means midday walks, feeding at specific times, or just extra cuddles. Because I’m home often, your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will have lots of companionship. My flexible schedule also makes it easy for me to accommodate drop-offs, pick-ups, and special care instructions to ensure a smooth and stress-free experience for both you and your pup. 🐾 Whether pets stay in my home or I’m caring for them in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent, safe, and comfortable as possible. In my home, dogs have access to a large, fully fenced yard where they can safely run, play, and burn off energy. I always supervise outdoor time to ensure everyone stays safe and happy. Inside, they’ll have a calm, clean space to relax, with plenty of attention, playtime, and affection throughout the day. Because I work from home often, they get lots of supervision and companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely — from feeding schedules and walks to medication or special care needs. I treat every home with respect and every pet like my own, making sure they feel secure and loved while you’re away. My goal is always to create a safe, fun, and stress-free environment where your pet feels completely at ease. 🐾

I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, favorite activities, and any special instructions that help them feel at home. I have a comfortable, welcoming home and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. Whether your dog is playful and energetic or prefers curling up on the couch and relaxing, I’ll make sure they get the care and attention they deserve. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages during their stay, because I know you’ll want to see that your pup is happy and having a great time! I would love the opportunity to give your pet a safe, loving home away from home. 🐶❤️ I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day.

I’m happy to follow their normal routines for meals, walks, playtime, and rest so they feel comfortable and at home. Your pup will be treated like family from the moment they arrive! 🐾 I’ll stick to their usual feeding schedule and make sure they get plenty of walks, playtime, cuddles, and attention throughout the day. And when it’s time to relax or sleep, they’re welcome wherever they’re most comfortable—on their bed, the couch, or right beside me. ❤️ My home is their home while they’re here!
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.

We still miss having a dog around and would love the opportunity to welcome your pup into our home and give them all the love and attention we'd give our own. ❤️🐾 We currently have no pets and only accept one dog at a time, which means your dog gets to be the center of attention while they're here!

Mom and Dad are always the primary caregivers and responsible for all aspects of your dog's care and safety.

We're happy to follow your dog's normal schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, favorite toys, sleeping arrangements, and whatever helps them feel comfortable and at home. We also know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else's care. You can expect plenty of photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pup is safe, happy, and getting lots of affection. Because we have children, we only accept dogs who are friendly and comfortable around kids, reliably house-trained, and have no history of aggression. Whenever possible, we'd also love to do a quick meet-and-greet or video intro before your dog's first stay to make sure we're a great fit for one another. We want you to enjoy your time away without worrying, and for your dog to feel like they're part of our family while they're here. ❤️🐶 I work from home every day, so having a pup here fits naturally into our daily routine and means they'll have plenty of company, attention, and love throughout the day. I can easily accommodate potty breaks, playtime, snuggles, and walks around my work schedule, and they'll have someone nearby for most of the day. When the kids get home from school/camp, there are two more very enthusiastic dog lovers ready to give them even more attention! We're happy to follow your dog's normal feeding, walking, potty, and sleep schedule as closely as possible so their stay feels comfortable and familiar. We currently have no pets of our own and only accept one dog at a time, so your pup gets lots of individual attention and won't need to adjust to unfamiliar resident animals. We know how reassuring it is to actually see that your dog is happy and doing well while you’re away. During each stay, we’ll send you plenty of photos and videos so you can see how your dog is settling in and enjoying their time with us. We’ll also keep you updated on the important parts of their day, including meals, walks, potty breaks, playtime and medications when applicable. We want you to be able to relax and enjoy your time away knowing your dog is happy, comfortable, and receiving the same loving care you’d want for them at home.

About: I love caring for dogs in our home and treating them like they are a part of our family! Your dog will get plenty of attention and snuggles. Your dog will rarely be left alone as I am home almost all the time and if I am not, my family (all adults) helps care for the pets too. I have experience with senior dogs and those with anxiety. We have a fenced in yard and I also love to take dogs for walks in our quiet neighborhood. Please note that we have one cat in the house and a puppy. The puppy is a Carolina dog- mixed breed. As of June she is 8 months old. She has normal puppy energy and is ready to play! We would do a meet and greet to have the dogs meet before you booked to make sure you and your pup are comfortable. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality. I am interested in pursuing a future career working with pets. Your dog will be loved and treated like part of the family while staying with us. I have plenty of availability and flexibility in my schedule. For boarding, I am home all the time but in the chance that I am out, my family (all adults) is usually home. So your pet will rarely be alone. I am offering overnight boarding in my home. We are a family of 4 adult so there is almost always someone home. We do have a cat and a 6 month old puppy. We have a fenced in yard for your dog to run, but I will also take them for walks around the neighborhood.

About: 🐾 Your pet’s new favorite bestie! ✨NICU nurse with a BIG love for animals 🐶 Dog mom to Chewy & Finnegan 💕 Overnight stays, drop-ins & dog walks 📸 Plenty of updates, pictures & extra cuddles! Hi, I’m Meg! Your pet’s care, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I’ve spent years caring for dogs for friends and family, from overnight stays to quick drop-ins, and I love getting to know each dog’s unique personality! As a full-time NICU nurse, I’m responsible, attentive, and detail-oriented. I know how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, and I’ll treat yours like one of my own. Whether your pup needs a long walk, playtime, a little extra attention, or someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ve got them covered! 🐾💗 I currently work 3 twelve hours shifts a week. This leaves me with four days off throughout the week to check on your pups. My schedule is day shift work 7a-7p. I frequently walk my dogs at home along with other family members dogs. I have plenty of experience whether they’re calm and need a slow walk, or if they need the walk to get their energy out. I am also capable of feeding, medicating, and playing/spending time with your dog.
About: I was born and raised in Ukraine. My parents had a big house with big backyard, so we always had dogs and cats. Just like us, animals have their characters, they also get sick and do get old and more tender and fragile. Since I was a child I helped with care, feeding and sometimes even births of our animals. That taught me that just loving them is not enough! Care, compassion and respect are fundamental, when you own them or help someone with their furry babies! I am a responsible and caring person. Feeding, cleaning, playing, talking and sometimes listening to them, it’s all part of it! Give me a chance to become your pet’s friend. I’ll cherish them as my own! :) I have three human children and while they are in school, I’m all yours! Every day starting 9 am till 3 pm I can be a friend to your cat or dog. :) I have a fenced backyard that can easily accommodate 3 to 4 dogs! Am planing to get a crate, just in case it might be needed.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so loving and caring for them has always come naturally to me! Over the years, my family has had two Boxers, a Goldendoodle, and a Rottweiler, so I’ve been around dogs with all different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve always had a huge love for dogs, and that’s a big reason why I decided to start offering pet care through Rover. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for your dog while you’re away, and my goal is to give you that peace of mind. Whether your pup loves to play, go for walks, cuddle on the couch, or just have some extra attention and companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. I also have a friendly, playful 10-month-old Boxer of my own who absolutely loves other dogs and is always excited to make a new friend! 🐶🐾 I’ll treat your dog like part of the family and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. ❤️ Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work from home most days. This allows me to give dogs consistent attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. I’m able to stick closely to your dog’s usual schedule, whether that means midday walks, feeding at specific times, or just extra cuddles. Because I’m home often, your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will have lots of companionship. My flexible schedule also makes it easy for me to accommodate drop-offs, pick-ups, and special care instructions to ensure a smooth and stress-free experience for both you and your pup. 🐾 Whether pets stay in my home or I’m caring for them in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent, safe, and comfortable as possible. In my home, dogs have access to a large, fully fenced yard where they can safely run, play, and burn off energy. I always supervise outdoor time to ensure everyone stays safe and happy. Inside, they’ll have a calm, clean space to relax, with plenty of attention, playtime, and affection throughout the day. Because I work from home often, they get lots of supervision and companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely — from feeding schedules and walks to medication or special care needs. I treat every home with respect and every pet like my own, making sure they feel secure and loved while you’re away. My goal is always to create a safe, fun, and stress-free environment where your pet feels completely at ease. 🐾
“Logan has been amazing ! She is very reliable and has been a huge help with checking on my dog and my cats as well. I would recommend her for anyone who is looking for someone reliable and who has great communication.”
About: Hi, my name is Kayley. I am 26 years old, and I worked at South Jersey Regional Animal Shelter. I had worked with this company for over four years,and love working with all animals. I spend most of my time with dogs and I enjoy taking care of them. Most of my duties at the shelter include feedings, giving meds, cleaning after them, socializing, playgroups with other dogs, and loving ever single baby! I have had two dogs of my own, and am experienced in caring for and walking dogs. Because I have been working with animals for so long, I am skilled in knowing the ins and outs of dogs, and their needs. Can’t wait to be working with you and your baby! Because I do not work full-time, my schedule is completely free and flexible to focus entirely on whatever your pet needs. I am fully available to accommodate everything from quick daily drop-in visits and midday walks to dedicated, overnight in-home house sitting. Since my time is wide open, I can easily maintain your pet's exact daily routine, provide constant companionship, and handle last-minute schedule changes or extended care with ease. Personally prefer not to take care of someone’s pet in my home. Just cause meeting someone new can be stressful for an animal otherwise being in a environment they are already familiar and comfortable in!
About: My name is Rashad I am a 32 year old who has always had a strong love for pets. I am local to the Blackwood area but I will travel to care for your animals personally. I have personally owned 3 dogs, a Weimaraner named Bella, pitbull terrier mix named Jay and a toy sized Yorkshire terrier named Chloe. Unfortunately I am no longer a pet owner but I still I hope to be able to watch over some other furry companions to fill the void that has been made by their absence. I have experience as a manager at Petco so not only do I know how to care for dogs, I am well versed in the basic needs for most reptiles, birds, cats, and other small animals.I have no problem accepting pets that are not spayed or neutered for some reason rover won’t let me change that setting on my profile, so please disregard. I hope to share my affinity for pets with other pet parents while they allow me to host their fur children and look forward to yet again feeling the comfort of a four legged friend in my home. I work a rotating schedule with 12 hour shifts at a healthcare facility. I do my best to keep my calendar up to date but I am flexible so I do encourage you to reach out to me directly with an inquiries about dates and times I am available. I’m typically available early mornings and in the evening on the days I’m working but on my off days I am ready to be an all day companion for your furry friend! I have many years experience working with dogs and cats of all sizes and breed. I know how important it is to provide a safe and friendly environment to our four legged friends. I always try and approach any arrangement with both the owners and pets best interest in mind. I look forward to crafting a safe and trustworthy environment for your furever friends.
“Isabella was wonderful with my dogs! This was my first time using Rover, and she made me feel so at ease with someone else looking after my dogs while I was at work. She was very attentive to my dogs and kept me updated with each visit. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone, and I think my dogs would too!”

About: I am very good with dogs, because I pay attention to their body language. Dogs communicate through their eyes, body and barks. Similar to a person using sign language.

That was my peace and joy who helped me through difficult times in my life. I actually feel happy spending time with dogs. Running with dogs, playing ball with dogs, training dogs, walking dogs, dog sitting and playing, cuddles and hugs! I make dogs feel important because they are our fur babies who deserve the best life can give them! I will give your dog fresh water, food, medication; if necessary, pay attention to their body language to figure out what they need from me to feel more comfortable and supported. If you have instructions or a routine I will follow those set of guidelines. I will keep all owners well informed with updated photos and possible videos on how their fur babies are doing! If they need a bathing that is extra, but I will clean your dog thoroughly after playtime. If, you want me to take your dog to the park, I love doing walks and runs in the park with your fur baby! Get all the extra energy out, so when you come home they are well satisfied and content. I have a house and a yard. Yard is not fully fenced in yet, but currently working towards fixing it or getting a new fence.

“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. ❤️”
“Monica and Conrad were amazing with Heron, our 5 month old puppy. Heron was so comfortable and had Pongo as a playmate. I knew when we met them before scheduling the boarding that it would work out because Monica and Conrad are kind, caring people who love dogs. Pongo was calm and playful with a new puppy 'roommate.' We received daily photos and a review of the day and previous night. We will definitely book another boarding for Heron with Monica, Conrad and Pongo! Thank you so much!”
“Kelsey and Conor were incredible. This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous to leave my 6-month Cav who just got spayed. They kept me up to date with pictures and loved Chloe like their own. Will be booking with them again!”
“Annette and Martin have been taking care of my dog Baylor for a few years now and always do an amazing job. He gets so excited when we pull up to their house!”
“I was very happy with the care Luna received during her visit at Sarah’s! Luna has always been timid around other dogs, but she made some doggy friends while there, even letting them rest in her crate with her! Sarah took wonderful care of her, sending us pictures and even bathing her the day we picked Luna up! Definitely recommend Sarah and will have Luna visit again if we are out of town.”
“We could not be more pleased with Kara’s care of our dog. This was our first visit and she treated him like part of the family with daily updates and pictures for us. We could not recommend her more. Thanks to her we had a relaxing vacation with no worries.”
“Chazz was so gracious with our schedule in dropping off and picking up our dog. He was flexible with our last minute boarding and provided many photo/video updates. Ozy had a great time with him and I’d book again!”
About: Why Choose Me? 🐾 Caring for dogs is something I’ve been doing my entire life. My family has never been without a dog, and now that I’m in my own home with my husband and our 2-year-old dog, I get to continue doing what I love—giving dogs a safe, comfortable, and loving place to stay. Over the years, my family and I have cared for the pets of friends and relatives more times than I can count, from overnight stays to month-long visits. Every dog who comes into our home is treated like family from the moment we meet them. We’re happy to give them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and, of course, lots of snuggles on the couch. 🐶❤️ Meet Ellie! 🐾 Our 2-year-old pup, Ellie, is a crazy, fun-loving girl with lots of excitable energy! She absolutely loves having other dogs around and is always ready to make a new friend. Whether it’s running around and playing, chasing each other in the yard, or simply hanging out together, Ellie loves the company of other pups. Because Ellie is so playful, she can be a great companion for dogs who enjoy having a furry friend around. Of course, I always take each dog’s personality and comfort level into consideration and make sure everyone gets the attention and space they need. A Home Away From Home 🏡 Our home is a place where dogs can truly feel at home. If your dog is used to sleeping in the bed, they’re welcome to do that here too! If you prefer that your dog stays off the furniture at home, we’ll absolutely do our best to maintain those boundaries and routines. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone else, so my goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both you and your dog. Your pet will receive the same patience, attention, affection, and care that I would want for my own. 🐾 I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pup and give them a loving home away from home while you’re away! Pet care is something I make a priority in my daily routine! I love making sure every pup gets plenty of attention, playtime, affection, and opportunities to feel comfortable and at home. I plan my schedule around the needs of the dogs in my care so they can enjoy a safe, loving environment while staying active and happy. Our fully fenced backyard provides a safe, spacious environment where dogs can play, explore, and enjoy fresh air alongside our friendly, playful dog, Ellie. We offer plenty of supervision, attention, and opportunities for fun, along with a comfortable crate option for dogs who prefer a quiet, cozy space to relax and recharge.
