While we were away, Keirstin sent us photos and updates and she was very responsive when I asked questions about his settling in her home. Thank you Keirstin.”
“Amanda and her family took great care of Roy at their home. Amanda provided lots of updates and clearly gave Roy a lot of attention. He returned home very happy!”
“5/5 Stars — Absolutely Outstanding Care! I cannot say enough wonderful things about Caroline! She boarded my Miniature Schnauzer, Mikey, for a few days while I was away, and she truly exceeded every expectation. From day one, her friendly and welcoming nature put my mind completely at ease. She kept me updated throughout the stay with regular texts, pictures, and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear right from the start how kind, loving, and attentive she is with animals. Honestly, I couldn't ask for anyone better. By the end of the experience, it felt like a family member had taken care of my dog. I will definitely be reaching out to Caroline again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-tier care for their pup!”

“Vasiliki is amazing with Kira. My dog is a bit anxious but she loves Vasiliki and looks forward to staying with her all the time! She is super responsive and sends me frequent updates about Kira during her stay. Vasiliki was very accommodating of accepting Kira for a last minute request as well. Kind and responsible, will continue to have Vasiliki take care of Kira moving forward! 🙂”
“Ayush was wonderful with our dog! He made sure he was comfortable in his house and that he got along with his dogs. Super communicative and sent us plenty of pics! Will definitely book with Ayush again!”

“Ivette was amazing with Linnie! I got lots of pictures, and am happy Linnie had a cozy home with new friends while I was away. Definitely booking with them again!”
“My pup can be very anxious and Nicolle went above and beyond to make sure he was well taken care of. It took so much stress off my vacation planning and will definitely book again:)”
“This was the FIRST time I was able to leave my dogs anywhere and actually not worry or stress about how things may be going. Everything from the house space to the family, it’s all just perfect! And I’m extremely picky! So ya just a great experience in every way. I wish all sitters were like this one. Definitely recommend her and I would gladly pay even more than she charges. Totally worth the peace of mind. 10 stars!!”

“Jacqueline is the get away Hotel for my cat. He spent five nights being pampered, given time in the fresh air, and the center of attention with her entire family over the weekend. He sleeps out in the open which shows he is comfortable and lets the family play with him and rub his belly which he rarely allows. Jacqueline shares numerous videos pictures and text updates. My guy is actually adjusting coming back home; I’m not sure he was ready to leave his vacation! It’s just he and I so now I feel bad he left all of his friends at Jacqueline’s house! She and her family are truly wonderful people and take very good care of my cat. Thank you, so much, for taking care of my little turkey!”

“Tasnuva did a fantastic job on taking care of our cat and keep the place tidy and clean! She took care of our cat well that our cat doesn't seem stressed at all and moreover she was very happy 😊 I highly recommend her and she does the best!!”
“We’ve booked with Irisdelie multiple times to care for our cats, Chai & Latte, and she is absolutely wonderful. She’s extremely attentive, very responsive with updates (our favorite to read while away), and it’s clear she truly cares about animals and takes pride in her work. Our cats adore her and we always feel completely at ease when they’re with her. Can’t recommend her enough!”
About: As a cat owner myself, I have 5 years of hands-on experience caring for cats and understand that every cat has their own personality, routine, and boundaries. I’m comfortable with feeding, litter box care, playtime, grooming, and administering medications when needed. I pay close attention to small changes in behavior, appetite, bathroom habits, and energy levels. I’m also patient with shy or cautious cats and always let them warm up to me at their own pace. I’ll keep you updated while you’re away and treat your cat with the same care and attention I give my own.
“Deliris was a great help! She took her time with my kitties and gave them some very needed interaction. She is a great communicator and never left me wondering about what was going on. I would definitely book her again!”
“Karollyne took great care of my cat Jellybean while I was away! Communication was quick and helpful and I will definitely consider booking her again in the future. Thank you!”
“Neide took such great care of CJ. It was my first time using Rover so I was nervous but she cared for my cat as if it were her own. She sent daily pictures and even a video.”
“Kayla was absolutely WONDERFUL with our two cats. Our cats are still acclimating to one another, and not only did she spend time with each of them but she did an amazing job at having them play together, listening to them if they had enough, and overall giving them many positive bonding experiences with each other. I also have a much more involved feeding routine/schedule for them than most people, and she followed everything perfectly. I always looked forward to her reports and pictures, and she was very thorough on her stay and how the cats were acting/feeling. I'm 100% sure they will miss her (especially Filo) and I will definitely call on Kayla again in the future!”
“Stephanie did an amazing job checking in on our skittish kitties. They warmed up to her very well and she sent lots of updates and photos. I will be booking her again and highly recommend her if you are looking for a great cat sitter 🤗”
“Nicolle was a wonderful sitter to my cat while I was out on a holiday. She took great care of her while also making sure my home was in a good state for my cat. She is very caring and so loving towards my cat. She played with her, brushed her, petted her. She also made sure all the details were taken care of. Will recommend her and take her services once again :)”
About: The birthday that I was blessed with my first puppy at age 10 is one of my fondest memories. I knew from an instant that these were much more than pets, but rather treasured companions who deserve to be treated as such. My love for these pets only grew as I was entrusted by neighbors, friends, and family members to provide care for their buddies. When it comes to walking, bathing, feeding or any other interaction, every pup has their own unique personality, and it's our job as owners to understand them so we can provide the best possible care and love for them. I have experience in dogs of all sizes and personalities, from fluffy and friendly to tiny and timid. If you'd like to show your little friends some extra love and attention throughout the day, I'd love to work with you and meet your pup! I'm currently working part time in media, and my flexible schedule allows for me to give your pups all the love and attention they need at almost any hour! I'm available for walks whenever the sun is up, and in-home visits to work around your schedule! My home is arranged to provide the most possible comfort for your pup! With an open floor plan that is sprinkled with minimalistic furniture, there is plenty of space for you rover to roam and play! I'll be sure that they're fed to your schedule and get lots of love and attention
“I highly recommend working with Jeanette. She took excellent care of my shy, senior rescue cat while I was away for Thanksgiving. She’s super responsive, thorough, and incredibly responsible. I hope to work with her again in the future :)”
“Joni was a wonderful sitter for Tigger! She communicated well throughout the stay and took great care of him — including giving him his medication and gently comforting him when he was scared. The only minor hiccup was with the Rover card check-in timing (either forgetting or tapping a bit too early), but that’s a small thing. Overall, I’d highly recommend her and would definitely book again!”
“Jade was so kind and patient with our cat Nutmeg, our feisty girl! Jade sent detailed updates, included pictures and videos; and most importantly, really developed a bond with our cat. Jade is responsive, professional in her communication, and easy to coordinate with. Highly recommend her for your pet!”
“Daniel was beyond responsible and responsive, although I was far away from home he made sure to inform me on each visit regarding status of my senior dog and cat. I know for sure who to contact in the future ! 10/10 overall service”
About: Hello! I'm Audrey E, and I'm thrilled at the opportunity to be your next one-off or regular pet-sitter! I grew primarily around dogs, specifically American bulldogs, Jack Russell terriers, pitbulls, Shiba Inus, and lab breeds. Since the end of 2024, I’ve gained lots of experience caring for cats as well. I can provide excellent care in playing, feeding, and walking your dogs and/or cats. I also can do overnight stays. I'm unable to do boarding; however, in your home, I will make sure that your pets are comfortable and safe under my care. Here is my availability as of October 6th, 2026: • Mondays through Fridays: available all day, including overnights. • Saturdays and Sundays: available all day, including overnights. • I frequently check on the pets to make sure I let them out at the right times to go to the bathroom. • I make sure they have food and water, and refill when needed. • If the pets are cuddlers, I love cuddling with them.
About: Hello, I’m a 27 year old who has loved animals their entire life. Currently I don’t have any pets but while I was younger my family always had animals in the house. I’ve had the pleasure of growing up around dogs and cats. When I moved away from home I started pet sitting for family friends and neighbors. I have pet sat cats, dogs, even a parrot and a snake. I love caring for other people's pets and understand the love and care that is expected when taking on this job. Caring for animals is one of my favorite past times. I currently freelance so my availably is extremely open. That also means your pet will get my full attention for any care they need. I work from home so I will have ample time to care for the pets. I also live walking distance from a park so walks will not be a problem. I don't currently have pets but the way I would care for pets in my home is by paying as much attention as I can to them. Making sure they are well fed, comfortable and relaxed.
About: I have grown up caring for cats from feeding feral cats to caring for my own indoor cats since new borns over the past 10 years. My priority is taking the time to understand their routines, personalities, and needs. I follow instructions closely and always keep owners updated.

About: As a devoted dog enthusiast, I have accumulated over two decades of expertise in pet care and have been a dog owner for 25 years. My two English cocker spaniels hold a special place in my heart, making them my absolute world, alongside my spaniel before my current two that I had for 17 years, who passed away in 2019. Spaniels hold a special place in my heart. As a remote worker with a highly flexible schedule, I am able to be present with the puppies and dogs regardless of whether it is a weekend or a weekday. Residing in a two-story townhouse, I do not have a backyard, but I do have three balconies. Additionally, there is a park located nearby. I also have two English cocker spaniels, who are siblings, named Parker and Riley. They are friendly and calm after the initial few minutes. Parker and Riley are both six years old, and my husband and I ensure their well-being by keeping them well-groomed. We consistently monitor their eyes, perform regular teeth brushing, and ensure that their paws and nails are in optimal condition.

“This was the last daycare I had with Jennifer before my sweet elderly Xander passed. Xander had come to like Jennifer and over time, started to show excitement when he saw her. So this final rating was given by the dog. Xander had many medical needs and Jennifer accepted all of them. Xander passed yesterday and I contacted her to inform her and thank her. I didn't mention this but I was feeling regret about not checking the box asking for pictures all day long. SHE STARTED SENDING ME PICTURES. I"M CRYING BIG TEARS THANK YOU.”
“Jeanette was a great sitter for Mr Pickles! Great communication throughout while she cared for our pet, and very friendly and easy going. Her golden doodle was also great with our furry baby, she kept us up to date throughout the day with pictures and video, totally recommended :)”
About: Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life, not just a service I provide. I offer dog sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits, with care tailored to each pet’s personality, routine, and emotional needs. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or calm and senior, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Daily activities may include: Long or short walks based on energy level Feeding according to your schedule and dietary needs Playtime, enrichment activities, and mental stimulation Frequent photo and video updates for peace of mind I treat every dog as an individual, never rushing interactions and always prioritizing their well-being. I have long lasting experience taking care of dogs, more than 10 years. I can take walk dogs after 3 pm every day. I am a teacher, and I currently work every morning until 3 pm. I would walk dogs after 3:30 pm to make my day full. I would follow any direction the pet owner gives me. I would make sure the pet is comfortable and most of all I would keep everybody and everything safe.
About: I have cared for other people's dogs--roommates, friends, neighbors--since childhood, many decades! I've lived with cats, dogs and birds. I said goodbye to my rescue Westie of almost 17 years during 2025, and I’m not ready for another long-term pet commitment yet. I puppy trained her (with trainer) from 4 months and provided senior care for the last few years. I am very patient when meeting new animal souls, allowing them to come to me when they’re ready. I have been taking shelter dogs on Afternoon Adventures and have been successful with helping to train dogs in my care. I am working part time and have a flexible schedule, and now that I'm pet-less, I am available, even on short notice. I have been going on walks/hikes in our beautiful parks (over 2 miles) and would prefer some four-legged company. I am very good at following your instructions, respectful of routines and choices you make, and sensitive to furry companions' needs. I'll send you lots of pics! I will board low-maintenance/energy pets in my home, not puppies or kittens.
“Jamin was great and accommodating at the last minute. He was definitely attentive to Yanni's needs and was helpful in getting him acclimated to a new environment. Hands down would book again”
“Thanks for taking care of cheese yesterday. He is a bit of anxious dog, and I appreciate your patience to make him feel comfortable. I look forward to more sessions!”

“Andrew is top rated for a reason! Totally worth the cost. He’s got a great space perfect for a dog to free roam and family all committed to the care of your little one. Professional, accommodating, attentive, and great with updates / communication. New to the area and was nervous leaving my little one with a new care giver for an extended period for work travel.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years for family and friends, and I’m excited to welcome new furry guests into my home.

I live in a quiet, walkable neighborhood that’s perfect for daily strolls, and my home is clean, secure, and designed to help small dogs feel comfortable.

About: Hi, I’m Aria! I’m a JC local who enjoys taking care and showing love to all animals. My love for animals started back when I volunteered to dog walk and help find dogs and cats a home at a shelter back in Charleston, SC. Since then, I’ve been taking care of my family, friends, and neighbors fur babies. When people thank me, I thank them back because petting any fur baby gives me all the dopamine I need. I’ll only confirm a dog-walk and dog sitting shift if I’m working from home and can guarantee I can be present with your fur baby •Affection (dogs love company that make them feel comfortable and loved). I’m always sure to make them feel seen and cared for. It can be tough on them being away from their caregiver. So affection goes a long way. •Making sure they’re fed & hydrated (always attending them according to their usual/specific routine).
“Marli has been taking our dog on weekly walks for several months and she has house-sat for us on multiple occasions as well. She has been absolutely wonderful to work with since Day 1. She is quick to respond, always prompt, and most importantly, our dog really enjoys spending time with her. We have a large dog that has medical needs and she can sometimes be difficult when getting to know new people. Marli demonstrated tremendous patience and kindness with her and she was able to gain her trust as a result. We are incredibly grateful for that. We would HIGHLY recommend Marli to anyone looking for a kind, passionate, and highly communicative caretaker for their pet. Thanks Marli :)”

About: I had a very sassy adopted Persian cat for about 6 years until she unfortunately passed earlier this spring. (she was an old lady). I adopted my puppy Levi in March 2022 and most recently my new kitty, Mikasa in July. I currently work full time from home so I have pretty open availability to take care of pets throughout the day. My dog goes on a walk twice throughout the day. My living room is actually used as a flex work space and it is also where my dog has his bed. It is gated off from the kitchen and the other side is my home office where I usually am throughout the day. I also have a play room for the dog that is located off the living room.

From the moment we dropped him off, Natasha made us feel completely comfortable and reassured us that Buddy was going to be well taken care of. It’s not always easy leaving your dog somewhere, but Natasha was so kind, caring, and attentive, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Buddy had such a great time and was treated like part of the family! We could tell he was happy, comfortable, and getting lots of love and attention.

Joni was in touch with us with pictures and messages about what Poppy was up to several times a day. We would recommend Joni to anyone who is looking for a loving and reliable pet sitter. Thank you Joni!!!!!”
