“We couldn't be happier with the care Jaime provided for our dog, Maggie! This was Maggie’s first time away from home, and since she is very fearful outside of her usual surroundings, we were nervous about how she would adjust. Jaime was incredibly patient and understanding, taking the time to make sure Maggie felt safe and comfortable. She truly cared about Maggie’s well-being, helping her acclimate to a new environment with both people and pets. It was amazing to see Maggie grow to trust Jaime enough to sit and even sleep near her! We are so grateful for Jaime’s kindness and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and attentive pet sitter.”
“Yvette is hands down the absolute best!! I wouldn’t leave my dog with anyone else. She is so trustworthy, responsible, kind, and loves your pets just as much as you do. 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!”
“William is a blessing. He took very good care of Badger while I was traveling abroad. He made me feel very calm and sent pictures every day. Williams’s dog Whiskey is very nice and helped Badger fit right in. He is very considerate and gave updates every day of how Badger is doing.”
“Great communication and dog sitters. They watched our dog and sent us updates with photos every day. Our dog loves kids and their little one even cuddled with her (aw). Would highly recommend and use them again!”
“This is my second time boarding my dog with Grace and she is AMAZING! She takes such amazing care of my baby and always sends pictures and communicates. Grace is flexible and considerate. Could not recommend her more to anyone looking for quality pet boarding. Thanks Grace!”
“Harley was fantastic! She totally accommodated my 10 year old Labrador, who’s not the easiest to care for. She really loved him and did her best to make him feel at home and comfortable. She was very communicative about everything and sent lots of photos. Her house was clean and large enough for a 100lb lab. Her yard is big and fenced in. We will def be rebooking her! Thanks Leny 🫶🏼”
“Billy was wonderful with my girl April. She had friends to play with, plenty of cuddle time and walks. Would definitely board her with him in the future. Daily pics helped to see how happy she was.”
“Nan was absolutely amazing. This was my first time ever leaving my dog, who is very anxious without me, and she went above and beyond to make me feel completely comfortable. She sent so many pictures and videos, which truly put my mind at ease. Nan was so loving, patient, and caring, and it was clear my dog felt safe and happy with her. Thanks to Nan, I finally feel like I can enjoy work or personal trips without constant worry. I can’t wait to use her again and would recommend her without hesitation.”
“What a relief to find Vincent who was able to board our German Shepherd mix while we went away for almost a week. He sent us updates and we were happy our pet wasn’t alone. He was safe and got along with their beautiful lab mix-Scarlett. Thank you Vincent!”
“Ember had a great stay with Paul and Kathryn! We will definitely work with them again in the future! We got lots of pics and videos throughout her stay which was much appreciated 😊”
“Wonderful first experience! This was our first time having Kavyashree take care of our dog, and we couldn’t have been happier. From the very beginning, she took the time to ask thoughtful questions about what he eats, his routine, and his typical behavior. It was clear that she genuinely wanted to understand him as an individual rather than simply follow a checklist. What meant the most to us was how well she understood that he was feeling a little sad and missing his owner. She was patient, caring, and attentive to his emotions, which gave us tremendous peace of mind while we were away. We felt that he was in truly loving and capable hands. We would absolutely trust her with him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who is attentive, compassionate, and genuinely cares about the pets she looks after.”
“Cherish has watched my dog Rio two times this year and she does an excellent job. She takes care of Rio like it's her own, she sent videos and pics on regular basis. I have no complains and I would highly recommend her. I finally found someone who is right for my dog. Thank You Cherish. Sean P.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Radwa O. and her wonderful family! She boarded my pup Stormi for 6 days, and from the moment I dropped her off, I had zero worries. Radwa went above and beyond to make sure Stormi felt loved, included, and completely at home. The updates she sent were thoughtful and showed just how much Stormi was being cared for like one of their own. A huge thank you to her sweet pups Diesel and Lyla for putting up with my little fireball. Stormi can be a lot, but they welcomed her with such patience and playfulness. And to her boys, thank you for letting Stormi crash your sleepover! It meant the world to know she was surrounded by such kindness and fun. Radwa and her family are truly lovely people and amazing sitters. Stormi came home happy, healthy, and clearly spoiled with love. I would absolutely trust them again in a heartbeat! — Chanell G.”
About: I've had pets in my home all my life and have always helped care for them. Including: dogs, rabbits, rats, lizards, and fish. Dogs have always been my favorite animal and I love caring for them by walking them in interesting places or feeding them, even sleeping with them! I finally got a dog of my own at 15 and for the past several years have walked her weekly. Now I have 2 and have learned to manage them both while walking simultaneously. I try to go on light hiking trails or to parks, switching up the location every time. I currently walk my two dogs once a week for around 2 hours at a time and occasionally help with feeding and letting them out to pee. I also pet them and sit with them as often as I can. In my home, my dogs are well-fed with a healthy diet of kibble twice a day, eggs in the morning, and chicken strips at night. They each get baths once every few weeks. We also always prefer they are never alone for more than a few hours at a time. If we leave even for one night, we make sure we have someone visit them every few hours for feeding and letting out. Otherwise, we make sure they feel as loved as possible with lots of petting and sitting together!
“Dana and Nicholas were wonderful watching Roscoe. They took care of all his needs and gave lots of updates with how he was doing. I had no worries at all while he was staying with them.”
“Alice was great. Sparky was so happy with her and comfortable that he almost did not see me when I came to pick him up. Would definitely recommend and we would be working with her again”
“My dog is so well cared for when she’s with Jalisa. The entire family loves on my fur baby so much that sometimes I have to drag her away. I am a repeat customer and will be as long as Jalisa will have us.”

“Jonathan was excellent. He introduced my dog to his own dogs so that they can get comformtable around each other since my dog is afraid of big dogs.

About: Hi! I’m a full-time work-from-home dog lover who provides a safe, loving, and active environment for your pup while you’re away. Because I work from home, your dog will get plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and care throughout the day — not be left alone for long hours. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor playtime, and my family loves spending time outside on walks, playing, and enjoying fresh air with our furry guests. We also have children who are gentle, caring, and experienced around dogs. Caring for animals has always been a big part of our lives, and I regularly dog sit for family and friends. Recently, we had to say goodbye to our longtime family dog due to age and health issues, which only deepened our appreciation for the love and companionship pets bring into a home. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog, and I’ll treat your pet like part of the family — with lots of love, patience, attention, and belly rubs. Whether your dog loves walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm place to relax, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for during their stay. I currently work from home full time so your pet will not be left alone. I have the flexibility for walks during the day and a fully fenced yard for play time outside. I have a large fenced yard that pets always will be able to go in as well as a walking friendly neighborhood. We will follow your lead we do allow pets in bed and on furniture but will also crate if that is how your dog is comfortable.
“Kevin is the best! My anxious cavapoo Cleo, absolutely loves staying with him! She is always so happy and relaxed with him! Kevin is incredibly kind, easygoing, and flexible, which makes coordinating everything so stress-free. His communication is always clear and consistent, and I never have to worry when Cleo is with him. The biggest thing for me is how comfortable and happy Cleo feels in his care! Highly, highly recommend Kevin!”

About: My home was set up for an 80lb dog with a fenced in yard and areas around the house. Should be very comfortable for any dog. I’m very attentive to the pets, making sure their needs are met and that they are safe and sound. When I take on a job, my schedule is pretty cleared out for it since I’m a retired person. I can schedule my time around the care of your pet. I care for pets in my home by keeping an eye on them. Taking them out into the fenced yard and walking them twice a day. If they like to play fetch or tug I’ll do that with them too. I keep them fed, watered, exercised and rested.
About: I've never been a professional pet sitter, but I've proudly been the go-to sitter for family and friends for as long as I can remember. From playful pups to senior sweethearts. I've always loved caring for animals of all kinds. And yes, I've even pet-sat hermit crabs. In fact, one cat-sitting job turned into a 12-year relationship with my late cat Kitty (I know..very creative). I treat every pet as my own and understand how important it is to trust the person caring for them. My goal is simply happy pets and happy owners. My current priorities are my education and my son. Outside of those responsibilities, I have a flexible schedule and can provide dependable, loving care for your pets. My goal is to step in and make them feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. I'll stick to their routine, give them plenty of attention, play, and affection, making sure they feel like they're spending time with a friend instead of a stranger. I'll always keep you updated with photos and check-ins to give you peace of mind.
“So damn fortunate to have found Bianca. As pet owners, everyone is familiar with the apprehension that accompanies when you have to trust a stranger with your pets or like I say “Your Heart and Soul”. My boys are uber spoiled and Bianca’s level of patience with them….I couldn’t ask for anything more. She is communicative, punctual, extremely professional. She took the time to truly listen and understand Buddy and Brody’s personalities - their likes and dislikes - their joys and anxieties. As a pet owner, one can’t ask for anything more. The only aspect that behooves me is why does she not charge more for her services? Lol. All kidding aside, she is a Godsend for pet owners. B, once again thank you for you.”
“I was very hesitant to use rover. I did not like the idea of random people just coming into my home. Then we found Nicholas and I am so happy we used rover. He has helped me out so many times and my 3 year old golden doodle loves him. I highly recommend using Nicholas if you’re looking for an amazing person to care for your dog.”
“Mike, where do we begin. You are a wonderful person, he is SO prompt and on time. We truly appreciate that because at the end of the day, our dog who cannot help themselves needs to utilize the bathroom. You are so kind to athena, he brought a huge tennis ball for athena to enjoy and she is OBSESSED. We cannot thank you enough and will miss you.”
About: I’ve grown up with my grandmas dog who was a very shy and quiet dog and would usually just walk away from everyone but my grandma and me. Everyone thought he wasn’t a “good” dog because he didn’t really like anyone’s presence, yet they didn’t know how excited he’d get to see me. Sometimes he’d get so excited he’d pee a little! Every year after receiving birthday money I’d make sure to get him a little treat as a kid. Our time was great, and I’ll make sure it’s just as great with your pup! My schedule is lenient and can be adjusted with preparation. Monday-Wednesday 3-7 pm and saturdays from morning to evening is when I’ll most likely always be free! As someone who’s a very big advocator in pets safety and care, I’ll make sure to accept any sort of accommodations for your pet, every pet deserves a best friend no matter their needs!

About: I am dog/cat CPR/FA certified and have provided many years of animal care, as well as always owning my own. I have experience training pups on tricks and potty training. I have also had experience with end of life pets providing comfort care and medication administration. I provide daily care for my animals at home! I work from home every day and I have a generally flexible schedule. I am able to walk away from my desk to help you care for your loved ones on short notice. I have a home with a fenced in yard and my two dogs and cat love to hang out in it! When caring for others pets, I will always do a walk around of the property to ensure it is safe for the pet to explore. I always prefer if the pet parent leaves me with a checklist or letter for their preferences and will follow this. I will always ask about allergies, triggers and history for the pet to ensure they are safe with me, other people, and another pets.
“Jennifer is awesome! She made sure to come meet our dogs before we booked and they love her. She showed up on time and took great care of our boys. I feel a lot better knowing there is someone who can take care of our dogs when we need it.”

I care for pets in the clients home by making sure I know everything that needs to be done while I’m taking care of them. I make sure the families tell me any important information I may need to know. When coming into their house I approach their animals slowly and allow them to become comfortable with me so they feel safe as well.
About: I've been looking after dogs since I could open my eyes. I had a dog for 16 years and recently got a new one.

Let me help you and be your deep breath of relief. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine seamlessly. Even though I work part-time as a waitress and attend school full-time, I make it a priority to fit in as much pet sitting as I possibly can. My flexible schedule allows me to dedicate the necessary time and attention to each pet, ensuring they receive the best care. I care for pets in my home and my client's home with the same dedication I give to my own. Whether it's check-ins or pet walking, I ensure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved. Your pet becomes my pet, and I go the extra mile to provide the best care possible.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child. Lots of experience in caring for dog and dog walking. I also have experience in caring for a pet after surgery and administering medication. I understand how important it is for your dog to be comfortable while you are away from home. I work full-time, but I work from home two days a week. Those days I would be available for dog walking or checking in on your pet. Could do in-home sitting, preferably on weekends, but should be able to fit weekdays schedule also. I would be caring for your pet in your home. This would make them the most comfortable being in their own house. I will try to stick to the same routines that the owner does.
About: I’ve been around animals all my life and wouldn’t want it any other way! I currently have one rescue dog of my own, having sadly lost one of our pups three years ago. I regularly walk several dogs in the local area, and do regular drop-in visits for a family with three cats, when they go out of town. I also have experience caring for senior cats and dogs. I will always keep you updated with photos/videos promptly after each visit or walk. Rest assured, I will treat your fur babies as my own! My schedule is flexible and I am available most days, including weekends, depending on prior booking commitments. Caring for your pets is always my priority! I am mature, reliable, and responsible and will always treat your pets and your property as I would my own. I will check on your pet’s welfare first and foremost, then will keep them well loved and entertained throughout my visit/walk!
“Kim is respectful of our property and our dog seems to love her. It had been years since we had been in touch but she was happy to pick up right where we left off when my family had to go out of town for a night. Highly recommend.”
About: I've taken care of puppies and adult dogs of my friends and family for over 8 years and counting. I love training, walking/hiking, and taking my dog to the dog park. I currently work from home full time so I am able to provide daily walks to your fur baby. I also have a very friendly and social ShihPoo that loves any furry friend that comes to stay overnight or spend the day with us. I have a large apartment, in a multifamily house I share with my mother, with access to a fenced in backyard. I make it a priority to walk my dogs and either take them to the park or trail to give them a change of scenery (weather permitting). On very cold, rainy, or snowy days I make sure to give my dogs activites and attention. I will crate, if asked, but usually when I petsit I let the furbabies free roam. I work from home full time so I am able to spend the whole day with your pup and tend to their needs (walking, potty, playing, feeding etc.) In my home, I have a roam free environment however if a dog requires separation or crating I have a second bedroom. I also have a fenced yard for quick potty time.

“We couldn't be happier with the care Jaime provided for our dog, Maggie! This was Maggie’s first time away from home, and since she is very fearful outside of her usual surroundings, we were nervous about how she would adjust. Jaime was incredibly patient and understanding, taking the time to make sure Maggie felt safe and comfortable. She truly cared about Maggie’s well-being, helping her acclimate to a new environment with both people and pets. It was amazing to see Maggie grow to trust Jaime enough to sit and even sleep near her! We are so grateful for Jaime’s kindness and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and attentive pet sitter.”
“Yvette is hands down the absolute best!! I wouldn’t leave my dog with anyone else. She is so trustworthy, responsible, kind, and loves your pets just as much as you do. 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!”
“William is a blessing. He took very good care of Badger while I was traveling abroad. He made me feel very calm and sent pictures every day. Williams’s dog Whiskey is very nice and helped Badger fit right in. He is very considerate and gave updates every day of how Badger is doing.”
“Harley was fantastic! She totally accommodated my 10 year old Labrador, who’s not the easiest to care for. She really loved him and did her best to make him feel at home and comfortable. She was very communicative about everything and sent lots of photos. Her house was clean and large enough for a 100lb lab. Her yard is big and fenced in. We will def be rebooking her! Thanks Leny 🫶🏼”
“Billy was wonderful with my girl April. She had friends to play with, plenty of cuddle time and walks. Would definitely board her with him in the future. Daily pics helped to see how happy she was.”
“Nan was absolutely amazing. This was my first time ever leaving my dog, who is very anxious without me, and she went above and beyond to make me feel completely comfortable. She sent so many pictures and videos, which truly put my mind at ease. Nan was so loving, patient, and caring, and it was clear my dog felt safe and happy with her. Thanks to Nan, I finally feel like I can enjoy work or personal trips without constant worry. I can’t wait to use her again and would recommend her without hesitation.”
“What a relief to find Vincent who was able to board our German Shepherd mix while we went away for almost a week. He sent us updates and we were happy our pet wasn’t alone. He was safe and got along with their beautiful lab mix-Scarlett. Thank you Vincent!”
“Ember had a great stay with Paul and Kathryn! We will definitely work with them again in the future! We got lots of pics and videos throughout her stay which was much appreciated 😊”
“Wonderful first experience! This was our first time having Kavyashree take care of our dog, and we couldn’t have been happier. From the very beginning, she took the time to ask thoughtful questions about what he eats, his routine, and his typical behavior. It was clear that she genuinely wanted to understand him as an individual rather than simply follow a checklist. What meant the most to us was how well she understood that he was feeling a little sad and missing his owner. She was patient, caring, and attentive to his emotions, which gave us tremendous peace of mind while we were away. We felt that he was in truly loving and capable hands. We would absolutely trust her with him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who is attentive, compassionate, and genuinely cares about the pets she looks after.”
“Cherish has watched my dog Rio two times this year and she does an excellent job. She takes care of Rio like it's her own, she sent videos and pics on regular basis. I have no complains and I would highly recommend her. I finally found someone who is right for my dog. Thank You Cherish. Sean P.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Radwa O. and her wonderful family! She boarded my pup Stormi for 6 days, and from the moment I dropped her off, I had zero worries. Radwa went above and beyond to make sure Stormi felt loved, included, and completely at home. The updates she sent were thoughtful and showed just how much Stormi was being cared for like one of their own. A huge thank you to her sweet pups Diesel and Lyla for putting up with my little fireball. Stormi can be a lot, but they welcomed her with such patience and playfulness. And to her boys, thank you for letting Stormi crash your sleepover! It meant the world to know she was surrounded by such kindness and fun. Radwa and her family are truly lovely people and amazing sitters. Stormi came home happy, healthy, and clearly spoiled with love. I would absolutely trust them again in a heartbeat! — Chanell G.”
About: I've had pets in my home all my life and have always helped care for them. Including: dogs, rabbits, rats, lizards, and fish. Dogs have always been my favorite animal and I love caring for them by walking them in interesting places or feeding them, even sleeping with them! I finally got a dog of my own at 15 and for the past several years have walked her weekly. Now I have 2 and have learned to manage them both while walking simultaneously. I try to go on light hiking trails or to parks, switching up the location every time. I currently walk my two dogs once a week for around 2 hours at a time and occasionally help with feeding and letting them out to pee. I also pet them and sit with them as often as I can. In my home, my dogs are well-fed with a healthy diet of kibble twice a day, eggs in the morning, and chicken strips at night. They each get baths once every few weeks. We also always prefer they are never alone for more than a few hours at a time. If we leave even for one night, we make sure we have someone visit them every few hours for feeding and letting out. Otherwise, we make sure they feel as loved as possible with lots of petting and sitting together!
“Dana and Nicholas were wonderful watching Roscoe. They took care of all his needs and gave lots of updates with how he was doing. I had no worries at all while he was staying with them.”
“My dog is so well cared for when she’s with Jalisa. The entire family loves on my fur baby so much that sometimes I have to drag her away. I am a repeat customer and will be as long as Jalisa will have us.”
“Letitua was amazing. She and her family took great care of Levi and kept me updated all throughout Levi's stay. I could tell that Levi had a great time playing as well. Would definitely recommend”
About: I've always loved all animals since I was a kid but have a special affinity for dogs and cats. I lost my sweet pup, Ewan, in 2019 to Hemangiocarcoma (a blood cancer) and to this day I still mourn him and can feel his presence in my life. I also lost my dear cat, Figaro, last year to natural old age causes. I'm a very good dog and cat dad and miss them terribly. In the past few years, so many friends and family have asked me to pet sit their fur babies and they always remark that they know their dog or cat is in the best possible hands with me. That they can actually relax on their trip because of how responsible and devoted I am to their pets and how much their pets adore me. Everyone has been encouraging me to sign up for Rover and now I'm finally doing it! I honestly believe Ewan and Figaro guided me here in their own way to spend time with your beloved kiddos. I look forward to getting to meet you and your pets! I work remotely from home as a story consultant and my longest sessions are around 2 hours, so I have most of the day to hang out with your fur baby! If your pet is staying at my place, they'll most likely hang out with me in the large loft area where I work. So they won't be left alone (unless they're the type that needs their space!) The minute they tell me they need to go out for a walk or really just need attention, I'm all theirs. If they're used to taking naps or sleeping on the bed at night, that also is fine by me! :) If I'm at your place, of course I'll abide by your exact rules for them. I follow instructions well and provide plenty of photo updates so you can relax and know your fur baby is in good hands!
