“Buster loved his stay with Stephanie! Throughout his stay she was very communicative and sent so many detailed updates about how he was doing and sent so many cute pics to keep me updated. Definitely will be staying with Stephanie again in the future!”

About: Hi, I’m Angie! My husband and I share a calm, child-free home with no resident pets, giving your pet a peaceful environment and plenty of individual attention. I work from home and can keep your pet’s normal routine consistent with companionship, walks, playtime, potty breaks, cuddles, and quiet time throughout the day. We also have a park just a two-minute walk away! I grew up around rescue dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens through my mom’s volunteer work and previously worked for a mobile veterinarian. I’m comfortable caring for pets of different ages, needs, routines, and personalities. Our home is especially well suited for seniors, shy or anxious pets, and animals accustomed to being the only pet at home. I’ll follow your instructions closely, send regular photo updates, and provide a safe, cozy home away from home. ☺️ I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m available throughout the day for companionship, walks, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and quiet time. There’s also a park just a two-minute walk from my home, making outdoor time easy to incorporate into your pet’s normal routine. My husband and I share a clean, calm, child-free home with no resident pets, allowing your pet to settle in peacefully and receive plenty of individual attention. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, keep their routine consistent, and send regular pictures and updates. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll treat their space respectfully and carefully follow all household and safety instructions.
“Vanessa was amazing! She made our vacation so carefree and easy with pictures everyday of our two fur babies. We had a very bad experience with an old dog sitter and this was time around was a breath of fresh air. They didn’t even want to leave when we picked them up! She treated our babies like family. I would highly recommend Vanessa to anyone who needs a sitter for their fur babies!”
About: Hi! I’m Jessica, I've been a pet owner for over 15 years and have cared for both dogs and cats throughout that time. I have also had the pleasure of caring for our neighbors' pets, and we currently share our home with two friendly, well-loved cats. What sets my home apart is the personalized, one-on-one care I provide. I am the sole caregiver responsible for every aspect of your dog's stay, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, administering medication (if needed), and providing individualized attention. I only host one family's dog(s) at a time, so your pup will receive my full attention in a comfortable environment. This is a family household where my husband and I live with our four children (ages 8, 5, and 2-year-old twins). The children are always supervised around visiting pets, and I remain the only person responsible for your dog's care. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet behind, and my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they're being treated with the same love and care we'd want for our own pets. I can't wait to meet you and your pup! I work from home two days each week and structure my schedule to provide regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of individual attention throughout the day. On the other three days, your dog will be let out in the morning and walked if time allows. I get back to the house around 5pm and will resume caring for your dog like they are my own. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I only host one family's dog(s) at a time to provide a low-stress environment. Dogs are welcome on the furniture if that's what they're used to at home, and I'll do everything I can to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a family household, young children will be present, but I am the sole caregiver responsible for all pet care and supervision throughout your dog's stay.
“I appreciate Kristen’s care for my dog, Panda, during a recent trip. I loved the photos she sent and the frequent updates. Panda was happy and relaxed during his stay. I highly recommend Kristen for boarding. Thank you!”
“Leah and her daughter were great with Finn. Many pictures were sent of Finn getting a lot of attention and having fun. It’s great to know that the next time we go away that Finn has a safe, fun place to hang out.”
“Lauren and Derrick were the absolute best. I felt very comfortable with them when I went to meet them for the meet and greet before my dogs stay. Their house was clean their pets were well mannered and friendly and they sent me many pictures during my dogs stay. they are true pet lovers and I would recommend them over and over. They will be my first option anytime I am looking for pet boarding.”
“Shiloh enjoyed her stay with Ms.Jessica and her family . Very informative & kept me updated with Shiloh frequently. Has a very beautiful home & big backyard for your pup to play . An vacation from home to her lol .”
About: I have taken care of pets my whole life so I can take care of puppies to elderly dogs. Most dogs love me and want to come play and pet. I also have a 2.5yr old son who absolutely LOVES dogs. We are happy to take care of dogs with special needs or is on mediations. We had a cat that just recently passed away and she would have been 19yrs old this year. She had asthma and we had to give her an inhaler 2x a day for 10 years. Happy to help your family with any special needs. We will love them like our own while you are away. I currently run my own business and work from home. I have a very flexible schedule so I can fairly easily adopt to your needs and help out wherever I can. I have a nice size home so your dog will have lots of free range all over the house. I live in a very pet friendly community so there are a ton of dogs around and a nice place to go walking the dog.
About: I’m a very active person and love being outside. I have no problem giving your pup a bath and cuddles! I will absolutely love to run with your pup. I wont disappoint you! I have a five year old husky who is extremely needy and active! So I understand a dogs needs ! I also grew up with two big labs so I’ve always loved dogs. I had a German Shepard puppy too. I love all types of dogs! I recently moved back to the area and I am looking to help out dog parents with their cat or dog babies! Open schedule right now. I take my dog to the dog park every day for an hour or so! I also take her for lots of walks, aka 10 times a day.
“My cat was so very well taken care of by Nazli. Nazli sent pics or videos of Baxter everyday while I was away; she gave him his meds orally in the morning and evening; and she showered Baxter with love and hugs every day. I had a last-minute cat sitter cancellation but was able to find Nazli and connect with her very quickly - she responded so fast and was very accommodating in setting up a time to meet Baxter, and to introduce him to her cat, Kuki. (She responds almost immediately to my texts or Rover messages in general). This was an excellent experience for me and for Baxter - he had a new cat friend to play with and he was just cared for with so much love. Thank you Nazli! I will definitely bring Baxter to you whenever I go out of town for a few weeks. I truly appreciate you and Baxter says meow :)”
“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.”
“Jill was absolutely wonderful with Charlie and Bailey. She and her fur baby Roscoe made them feel at home. Jill was so helpful, flexible and caring with them. They were administered meds regularly, fed and cared for with great love. Her home was beautiful and very clean but still very conducive to pet care. She was in touch with pics and reports daily and they always looked happy and healthy. She lives very close so that was an extra convenience. I’m excited that we’ve found such a wonderful caregiver so close to home. We will definitely be coming back.”
“Debbie was great with our 15 year old dog! We were getting married and needed to procure care for our dog immediately and she quickly agreed to take care of him. She was responsive and a great dog sitter . Thank you Debbie!”
“We had a great experience with Leanne and Mark. The communication was consistent, positive and geared towards my concerns re: his anxiety with new people. We are booking again and soon. Teddy came home relaxed and happy!”

“Natalie is the best sitter we’ve ever had. Takes good care of both of my cats and this last time, my 20 year-old got sick. He vomited and had diarrhea, and that got all over him and the house. She cleaned him and the house so well that nothing smelled when we walked in. She took such good care of my baby that I will never use another sitter. We were upset to hear that Thomas got sick and we weren’t thinking straight, but Natalie gave us good advice. Trust Natalie with your babies, believe me, you will not regret it.”
“Andrea took such great care of our cats while we were away. She followed all instructions and kept us constantly updated which left us at ease. Would definitely work with her again and would highly recommend her for all your pets needs. Once again, thank you so much!”
“Paola took great care of our fur babies while we were away. She did more than we asked and was super communicative and accommodating. She made sure our cats had clean water, food, clean litter boxes and even vacuumed. She also made sure our kitties had playtime and sent us lots of photos and videos while we were away. Overall she is extremely caring, professional, timely and consistent. I highly recommend her and would request her services in the future!”
“Jessica is the best! She is reliable, so easy to work with, and always quick to respond. And she is so great with my cat! Jessica really loves animals and makes sure they get lots of love and cuddles. I feel so lucky to have found Jessica, she is truly amazing!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for cats throughout my life, from senior cats to newborn kittens requiring around-the-clock bottle-feeding, through my mom’s rescue volunteer work. I also previously worked for a mobile veterinarian, so I’m comfortable caring for cats of different ages, routines, needs, and personalities. I understand that every cat has their own way of feeling comfortable. Some enjoy immediate cuddles and playtime, while others prefer quiet companionship and a little time to warm up. I’ll respect your cat’s boundaries and keep their familiar routine consistent, including meals, fresh water, litter care, playtime, and any special instructions. For cats staying with me, my husband and I share a calm, child-free home with no resident pets. This gives your kitty a peaceful space without unfamiliar children or animals competing for their attention. Because I work from home, I’m available throughout the day to provide companionship, care, and plenty of individual attention. Whether your cat is cuddly, playful, shy, or independent, I’ll provide patient, personalized care at their comfort level—and send plenty of photo updates so you can relax while you’re away.
“Alicia was super responsive and took wonderful care of our three cats. They’re really needy, so I was worried about leaving them for a long trip, but they were in great hands! Alicia also watered our plants and they looked better than how we left them!”
“I travel for work and it can be unpredictable at times. I often get delayed and/or dates change. Lauren is extremely flexible with me and my 2 boy kitties love her. I'm so thankful to have her as my usual sitter!”
“Davene did an excellent job looking after our two cats. She communicated well before, during, and after each visit. She made sure they finished their food and medicine and even stayed a little extra to keep them company which was a lovely touch. We'll look to Davene again to watch over them during our future travels!”
“Kim has taken such excellent care of our wild maniac of a puppy! She makes sure he gets tons of love and snuggles whether we are away for the day at work or for a few days on a trip. She has also taken great care of our two cats and our house while we were away. Kim goes out of her way to do the little things like bringing in the mail daily. She is wonderful!”
“I highly recommend Kayleigh! She clearly aims to exceed reasonable expectations. Her meet & greet was thorough, she connected well with both 2- and 4-legged clients, she focused her time and attention on our pet while we were gone, and proved herself to be conscientious and trustworthy.”
“We are so thankful for the all care and time Meghan spent watching over our 3 dogs! As first time Rover users we had no idea what to expect and it was also the first time leaving our puppy for an extended period of time! We loved all the detailed notes we received and Meghan really went above and beyond, as she noticed our puppy was getting a little stir crazy and took her on a walk during one of the drop ins. We felt like we could trust Meghan’s judgement in caring for our pups, thank you SO much!!!”
“David took great care of my two cats with his drop-in visits. He even brought our trash cans in for us! David communicated with me about my pets and when he was going to be late. I would definitely book him again!”
About: Your pets aren't "just pets" — they're family. And as someone who has shared my life with dogs for many years, I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with their care. I began my animal-care journey studying Animal Sciences at Rutgers University's Cook College. Although my career eventually took me in a different direction, animals remained a constant part of my life. I've been pet sitting for friends and family for 27 years, and I also worked as a veterinary technician for 6 years. My veterinary experience gave me hands-on experience caring for dogs with a variety of needs, including senior and medically fragile pets. I'm comfortable administering: Oral medications Eye drops Subcutaneous fluids Senior-pet care and monitoring Feeding and medication routines Providing extra patience and attention to older or anxious dogs My beloved 15-year-old Shih Tzu recently passed away, and while losing him has been incredibly difficult, it has also reminded me how much I love caring for animals. I'm ready to open my heart — and my schedule — to caring for other people's beloved pets. Today, I'm a wife and mother who works from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide dependable pet care while being available when your pets need me. Whether your dog needs a midday visit, companionship while you're away, medication administration, or simply someone who will treat them like family, I bring years of experience, patience, compassion, and genuine love for animals to every visit. Your pet's comfort and well-being are my priority. I work remotely from home and have had a flexible work-from-home schedule for the past seven years, which allows me to be very accommodating with pet-care needs. I'm available for morning visits after 8:30 AM, once I get my daughter on the school bus, as well as midday walks and visits while you're at work. Because I work remotely, I'm also happy to spend the day at your home with your pets when needed, as long as I have access to Wi-Fi so I can work while keeping your pets company. My only regular scheduling limitation is 3:00–5:00 PM on weekdays, when I'm busy with school pickup and getting my children to their afternoon activities. Weekends are generally open and flexible, and I'm happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet's routine and your travel plans. My flexible schedule allows me to provide more than just a quick check-in—I can give your pets plenty of companionship, attention, and care throughout the day. I believe the best pet care starts with making your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m playful and attentive, but I’m also responsible and observant—I pay attention to your pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. I’m happy to care for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, including larger dogs up to 100 pounds. I also welcome cats! Whether your pet is energetic and ready to play or prefers a quiet afternoon curled up beside me, I’m happy to meet them where they are. Your home is your pet’s safe place, and I treat it with the same respect I would want for my own home. I follow your instructions carefully, maintain your pet’s normal routine as much as possible, and make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other safety measures are secure. Most importantly, I want your pets to look forward to seeing me! I’ll give them plenty of attention, playtime, affection, walks, and companionship, while respecting their boundaries and individual personalities.
“Allie was wonderful with my two kitties. I reached out on short notice and Allie was able to get back to me quickly with a meet up time. Kitties were fed, scooped, and played with. I got cute pictures and videos to let me know they were well behaved, since this was their first time with a Rover. I am planning to book Allie again for future drop-ins :).”

About: We own two large dogs- an Australian cattle dog/Anatolian shepherd/Hound mix, and a yellow Labrador retriever. They are very high energy and unique with lively personalities. We love to take them on bicycle rides/walks through the woods and neighborhood. We both have experience with dogs- John dog-sat as a child and has had family dogs as well, and I grew up on a farm with 10-15 inside/outside dogs all my life as well as many other animals. We have a big back yard that is fenced in, we also live next to a big state park that is loads of fun for any animal! Our entire family and our friends also have dogs, so when we all get together we usually have about 12-14 dogs all together at once running around playing and having fun!

“Stephanie was great! She was very warm and welcoming. She sent lots of pictures and updates to let me know how Ollie was doing! I would definitely reach out to her again!”
“Trusting anyone with your pet, especially a young puppy, is always nerve wrecking. From the moment that I first spoke with Vickie I felt completely reassured that Denali was in good hands. Vickie and Heath are such kind, compassionate people and it shows in how they interact with the pets in their care. Denali is always SO EXCITED to get out of the car when she sees that we’re at their house, and comes home happy and exhausted from having so much fun. They are flexible, reliable, honest and even gave helpful tips when they noticed Denali starting to eat grass. I cannot recommend them enough for daycare/boarding!”
“Spencer spent a trial day with Debbie. He was well taken care of. Her dog, Charlie, seems to be good for Spencer too. Appreciated the photo, update, and reassurance that the day was going well. Will be using Debbie again in the near future and feel comfortable leaving Spencer in her care.”
“Wonderful family! Daisy enjoyed staying with them. I was in a crunch trying to find a sitter and Lauren and Derek were there for us. They did a great job making my dog feel comfortable when she was initially nervous. I highly recommend!”

“Amy came over earlier in the week to meet Ornn and I. Ornn quickly warmed up to her so I knolew it was going to be a good fit. She was prompt to pick Ornn up for his walks, and her notes let me know exactly what he was up to. I also loved getting the pictures to know he enjoyed his walk and then when he was back home and comfy.”
About: When my family adopted our first dog, Jennie, a German Shepard mix, I had made it a priority to walk her almost everyday and play with her so she was never bored. I also helped train her when she was a puppy, teaching her how to sit and how to give her paw. I also took care of her when she became older, helping her down stairs and cooking her healthy treats like salmon and chicken. My family has since had two different foster dogs (American bully and Pitbull) that I love to spend time and go on walks with. I’m currently home from college for the summer, so I have plenty of time on my hands and would love to spend it with your pets! I will always keep a vigilant eye on your pet and do my best to make them as happy as possible. I spend a lot of time outside in my fenced yard with my dog, so I will be sure to give your dog the same amount of attention.
About: I grew up caring for 2 dogs and 2 cats, as well as pet sitting for friends and family! Even though some have passed away now, the fur babies always leave a print on my heart. While I am unable to house pets where I reside, my heart is ready to meet new friends on my traveling journeys! I work remotely as and English/ESL teacher, so my schedule remains flexible to meet all pet needs and responsibilities. I have yet to run into a schedule that I could not tailor to my current workload and personal needs. Due to my flexibility, I have no issues waking up early and being around for specific care requests that are needed through the day. All of my previous engagements have felt confident and felt pleased with the attention, safety and comfort I am able to provide with the consistent presence.
About: I have taken care of pets my whole life so I can take care of puppies to elderly dogs. Most dogs love me and want to come play and pet. I also have a 2.5yr old son who absolutely LOVES dogs. We are happy to take care of dogs with special needs or is on mediations. We had a cat that just recently passed away and she would have been 19yrs old this year. She had asthma and we had to give her an inhaler 2x a day for 10 years. Happy to help your family with any special needs. We will love them like our own while you are away. I currently run my own business and work from home. I have a very flexible schedule so I can fairly easily adopt to your needs and help out wherever I can. I have a nice size home so your dog will have lots of free range all over the house. I live in a very pet friendly community so there are a ton of dogs around and a nice place to go walking the dog.
“I arranged for someone to walk my dog, but they had to cancel at the last minute due to a medical emergency after I had already left the house and been gone for a few hours. Andrea really went above the call of duty. She called a coworker to come in early and left work early to go and walk my dog. I really appreciated her responsiveness.”
“Abbey was great with our senior Lab who needs patience and TLC. She kept us well informed so that we knew Tasha was OK while we were away for a few days.I would trust her with Tasha anytime.”
“Patrick is such a caring and loving dog walker. We used him for a vacation and continue to have him come during the week because of how much our pup enjoys his walks & company. If you’re looking for a quality and loving walker- this is your guy! We love Patrick!”
About: I have worked in various different ways with animals throughout the past 6 years. I have pet sat for family friends and used to work in a kennel where we board both cats and dogs. I have had pets all my life and know how much they mean to you so I will give them the best care! I have a part time job but it is very flexible! I am looking to do pet sitting full time so I have as much time for your pets as I can! I make sure the pets are comfortable and happy. Just write down what your pet needs and I will make sure to follow their schedule.
About: 🐾 🐾 Rates 🐾 🐾 I am happy to travel but may need to add a mileage fee for bookings outside of my 15 minute radius. All rates are negotiable. *Boarding: I only host 1 family's pets at a time. This provides a safer environment for your pet and an "at home" feel with plenty of attention, especially for reactive or aging dogs. I don't use crates or kennels but if you want to bring yours along that is fine, I also have 1 medium sized crate on hand if needed. I have a very clean home and welcome pets to feel comfortable if they would like to snooze on the sofas, bed, and we have a secure fenced in yard, but I do not leave dogs unattended in the yard. I usually take my dog to the local dog parks and nature trails and would bring yours along too. 🐾 🐾 Basic Info 🐾 🐾 I am an EMT, certified in Pet CPR + First Aid. For the past 25 years, I have been an animal caretaker. My favorite part is getting to know all of the different breeds and personalities. Your pets will be treated with love, and be as comfortable in my home as yours. I always send lots of photos at the end of each day. 🐾 🐾 My daily schedule 🐾 🐾 I work from home as a university professor. My position is remote, so I am able to work anywhere with a wifi connection. I work for rover occasionally and my schedule is typically super organized and flexible. We do at least 2 active hours per day- and we try to squeeze in as many hikes as possible. If they are up for it, I will take them on a short jog every day too.
About: I have had multiple animals of various types in my home since birth. I enjoy life with pets and have know nothing else. I have experienced all stages of their lives. For 5 years friends and family have trusted me to walk, feed, and sit for their pets. I am recently out of high school. I have lots of free time and could spend loads of it with your pets. I am very flexible with availability I prefer to care for your animal in the safety of their home. I can also take pets to the dog park if they are happy to do so.
“Paola took care of our pittie pup like he was one of her own! I appreciated how much she communicated with us and put us at ease during the whole process, especially since this was our first time hiring anyone to take care of our dog. Brewer has been extra well behaved and attentive to commands ever since Paola spent time with him. We will definitely book Paola again!”

“John and Nicole took such great care of Milo. I was very nervous leaving him alone for the first time and John made us feel at ease that Milo would be taken care of. We got daily updates and photos. Milo even made some friends. I hope to use their service again in the future.”
About: Hi! I’m Jessica, I've been a pet owner for over 15 years and have cared for both dogs and cats throughout that time. I have also had the pleasure of caring for our neighbors' pets, and we currently share our home with two friendly, well-loved cats. What sets my home apart is the personalized, one-on-one care I provide. I am the sole caregiver responsible for every aspect of your dog's stay, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, administering medication (if needed), and providing individualized attention. I only host one family's dog(s) at a time, so your pup will receive my full attention in a comfortable environment. This is a family household where my husband and I live with our four children (ages 8, 5, and 2-year-old twins). The children are always supervised around visiting pets, and I remain the only person responsible for your dog's care. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet behind, and my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they're being treated with the same love and care we'd want for our own pets. I can't wait to meet you and your pup! I work from home two days each week and structure my schedule to provide regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of individual attention throughout the day. On the other three days, your dog will be let out in the morning and walked if time allows. I get back to the house around 5pm and will resume caring for your dog like they are my own. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I only host one family's dog(s) at a time to provide a low-stress environment. Dogs are welcome on the furniture if that's what they're used to at home, and I'll do everything I can to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a family household, young children will be present, but I am the sole caregiver responsible for all pet care and supervision throughout your dog's stay.

They will be my first option anytime I am looking for pet boarding.”

I can’t recommend Teresa highly enough.”

I would recommend Christina to anyone that wants the best care for their pups.”
