“Our dog, Mickey, loved his stay with Bob and his wife. Receiving pictures of Mickey throughout his stay made our mini-vacation even that more pleasurable. We have already booked a future stay and highly recommend Bob.”
“I had such an incredible experience with Meghan! This was my first time using Rover and having someone dog sit my baby that was not a friend or family member. Meghan was so understanding and was so so communicative by sending me daily texts and pics. Cannot recommend her enough!! My Scout loves Meghan and can't wait to go back!”
“I can't recommend Victoria highly enough! From the very beginning, she was reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. It was clear that my dog was treated like family, and I received regular updates and photos that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She went above and beyond to make sure my dog's routine was maintained and that all of their needs were met. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable to care for your pet, I would absolutely recommend Victoria. I'll definitely be booking with her again!”
“First time using Rover and Megan made it so stress- free! Her and her husband were amazing at answering any questions and kept me updated via texts and pictures of how my pup was doing. I would highly recommend her if you are looking for a sitter.”
“Angelica is a dream host! I can't wait to book my puppy with them again as soon as possible! I got the cutest photos of all of their adventures and he came back cleaner than I sent him and tired from all the fun!”
“Britney did an incredible job taking care of my golden retriever! From the moment I contacted her and through out the stay, Britney had excellent communication and made me feel beyond comfortable. She sent daily pictures and messages on how my Gus was doing. Britney being a vet also just made me feel another level of comfort. When I picked up Gus at the end of the stay, Gus was staring out the window watching Britney. I know they formed a strong bond. Highly recommend reaching out to Britney for your pet needs! Thanks again Britney!!”
“Took excellent care of my senior dog. Followed all of my instructions, gave her lots of loving, and even took her on a field trip. Lovely caring person who I will call again. Highly recommend.🐶🐾”
“Paul and Kathryn took great care of our golden ! She stayed the night there and was given so much love and attention. She loved running around their yard! They kept us up to date and sent pictures and videos ! Would use them again !”
“My doggies love their stay at Julie’s! They immediately felt comfortable (and so did I!). Julie is a great communicator and provided updates and photos regularly even for for an overnight visit. Marley and Winnie were happy and tired upon their return home, what more could I want?”
“Maria was amazing! My dog was so happy and comfortable at her home. When our travel plans were delayed due to the weather, Maria was incredibly understanding and accommodating. I highly recommend her and would absolutely trust her with my dog again!”
“Deena was so great with our Ludlow! She sent lots of photos and updates, and was very thorough with everything. I knew Ludlow was in great hands and seemed to have a lot of fun playing with Deena’s sweet dog also. Would certainly book again!”
About: Hi! I’m Abbey — a lifelong animal lover who grew up with three dogs of my own. I’ve also helped several families, neighbors, and friends with walks, feedings, and check-ins. I’m reliable, caring, and always make sure pets feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine!

“Cheryl was awesome. She made both my dogs feel at home. She has a huge backyard. Her own dog, Gus, is super friendly. She also sent updates and pictures daily for the 3 days they were there. BROWNIE AND BARKLEY were safe and loved. I highly recommend Cheryl.”
“We were so happy that Shelleen and Bill took such good care of our 2 senior labs Bono and Jeter. They made them feel right at home and could tell they bonded with our boys. It’s such a relief knowing that it was a stress free environment for them and they seemed calm and happy when we picked them up to come back home. We would not hesitate to recommend or use their services again . Thank you!”
“We were nervous about leaving Sammie with someone we didn’t know, but when we did the meet and greet with Tina we knew she was the right person to watch Sammie. She answered all our questions, asked good questions, and she genuinely wanted to make sure Sammie would have the best stay while in her care. We received updates on Sammie’s walks, cuddle time, and if she was eating her food. We also received pictures of Sammie which put a smile on our faces. We were reassured that we had made the right choice. We would absolutely work with Tina again. 😊”
“Danielle did a remarkable job sitting Basil over the holiday weekend. Basil was very well taken care of and was sad to leave when I came to pick him up. Danielle was also incredibly flexible; she allowed us to pick up Basil at a different date / time than we previously agreed upon. I couldn’t recommend Danielle enough :)!!”
“Karen did a wonderful job of keeping my excitable, 6 1/2-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Flicker safe and happy during a two-week stay. Flicker had a great time playing with Karen's younger dog, Finnegan, lounging comfortably in the house, and sniffing around in the grassy, fenced-in backyard. Karen's own two small dogs, Oliver and Finnegan, are both very gentle and sweet, as were all other canine visitors. Karen's home is equipped with gates at doorways to allow any dog visitors to be safely corralled in different rooms, and she was very responsive to my request for Flicker to be leashed while outdoors in the backyard. Each day, I received lovely pictures and updates about how Flicker was doing, so I could see that he was adjusting well and having a great time. Karen is very experienced and has great communication and attention to detail, working with me to coordinate Flicker's drop-offs with his crate. This would be an especially great, safe place for dogs who are older or who have any special needs. Thanks so much for everything, Karen!!”

She also went above and beyond and helped me take care of an urgent matter regarding my apartment while I was abroad. Highly recommend her and I look forward to her pet sitting for my cats again!”
“She is amazing!!! 😻 I had a medical emergency and Wendy went above and beyond to make sure my cat was well cared for while I was in the hospital!!! I can’t thank her enough and she is a true gem on this site!!!!”

“Rachel was an amazing host for our Cleo. She made sure to know any special needs of our dog and also has a house that is very pet friendly. Lots of beds and toys for the pups to play with. Our dog loves the company of other dogs so her and Rachel’s dog got along like sisters. Rachel was kind enough to plan a day of activities for Cleo, taking her to a few dog parks and a nature walk (Rachel sends photos often so you can be aware of what they are up to). Cleo was happy and exhausted from the good time she had at Rachel’s and we all know a tired dog is a happy dog and care taker. Will be looking forward to having Cleo stay with Rachel again when we’re in the area.”
“Michelle was great with my little puppy. She was very patient and took Shelly on lots of walks. I would definitely use Michelle again as she was also very friendly and professional.”

About: Hi my name is Micaela and one thing about me is that I adore animals! I love all animals so very much. I also feel that I work really well with them. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life. Most of my dogs have been big dogs so I’m pretty good with handling any challenge that’s thrown my way. I’ve had more aggressive and protective dogs as well as laid back dogs and I’ve loved all. I’ve also worked at local shelters in my hometown and felt that that helped me gain more experience working with varying animals. I trained a couple of my dogs from a young age and though I’m not certified I felt that I did a pretty good job. I’m very patient and very genuine. I also watched my dogs whenever my parents would go on business trips which was quite often so I’d say this is the perfect job for me! I’m a college student but have majority of my classes online so my schedule is pretty clear. I love being outdoors and in nature so dog walking is right up my alley. I also love just chilling at home so I have no problem with that as well. I will always be respectful of others space especially if they are allowing me to stay in their home and watch their animals. I would say I’m a pretty neat person and don’t mind cleaning up if anything is needed. Genuinely it makes me happy to help others around the house if necessary. I used to babysit for a while and would always tidy up when I could find the time. I recently moved and now live with my grandparents and mom. We also have a chocolate lab who’s very energetic and loves to play. We have a fenced in yard and a conservation close to our house so there’s plenty of space for the animals. We love having dogs in the house.

I strive to be dependable, punctual, and responsive when scheduling visits. Whether your dog needs a midday walk, evening exercise, feeding, or a drop-in check, I will communicate clearly and work to accommodate your pet’s needs whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a veteran and dog owner, I understand the importance of consistency, attention to detail, and following instructions. During every visit, I carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), exercise requirements, and any special instructions. I always ensure doors, gates, and leashes are secure and provide photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own.
About: Hi my name is Micaela and one thing about me is that I adore animals! I love all animals so very much. I also feel that I work really well with them. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life. Most of my dogs have been big dogs so I’m pretty good with handling any challenge that’s thrown my way. I’ve had more aggressive and protective dogs as well as laid back dogs and I’ve loved all. I’ve also worked at local shelters in my hometown and felt that that helped me gain more experience working with varying animals. I trained a couple of my dogs from a young age and though I’m not certified I felt that I did a pretty good job. I’m very patient and very genuine. I also watched my dogs whenever my parents would go on business trips which was quite often so I’d say this is the perfect job for me! I’m a college student but have majority of my classes online so my schedule is pretty clear. I love being outdoors and in nature so dog walking is right up my alley. I also love just chilling at home so I have no problem with that as well. I will always be respectful of others space especially if they are allowing me to stay in their home and watch their animals. I would say I’m a pretty neat person and don’t mind cleaning up if anything is needed. Genuinely it makes me happy to help others around the house if necessary. I used to babysit for a while and would always tidy up when I could find the time. I recently moved and now live with my grandparents and mom. We also have a chocolate lab who’s very energetic and loves to play. We have a fenced in yard and a conservation close to our house so there’s plenty of space for the animals. We love having dogs in the house.

“I had such an incredible experience with Meghan! This was my first time using Rover and having someone dog sit my baby that was not a friend or family member. Meghan was so understanding and was so so communicative by sending me daily texts and pics. Cannot recommend her enough!! My Scout loves Meghan and can't wait to go back!”
“Angelica is a dream host! I can't wait to book my puppy with them again as soon as possible! I got the cutest photos of all of their adventures and he came back cleaner than I sent him and tired from all the fun!”
“Britney did an incredible job taking care of my golden retriever! From the moment I contacted her and through out the stay, Britney had excellent communication and made me feel beyond comfortable. She sent daily pictures and messages on how my Gus was doing. Britney being a vet also just made me feel another level of comfort. When I picked up Gus at the end of the stay, Gus was staring out the window watching Britney. I know they formed a strong bond. Highly recommend reaching out to Britney for your pet needs! Thanks again Britney!!”
“Paul and Kathryn took great care of our golden ! She stayed the night there and was given so much love and attention. She loved running around their yard! They kept us up to date and sent pictures and videos ! Would use them again !”
“Deena was so great with our Ludlow! She sent lots of photos and updates, and was very thorough with everything. I knew Ludlow was in great hands and seemed to have a lot of fun playing with Deena’s sweet dog also. Would certainly book again!”
About: Hi! I’m Abbey — a lifelong animal lover who grew up with three dogs of my own. I’ve also helped several families, neighbors, and friends with walks, feedings, and check-ins. I’m reliable, caring, and always make sure pets feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I’m available on weekends and during mornings and evenings throughout the week. Whether it’s a quick walk, feeding, or drop-in visit, I’m happy to make sure your pets get the care and attention they need. When caring for pets in their own home, I always follow the owner’s instructions and routines to keep things consistent and comfortable. I make sure pets get fresh water, food, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I treat every home with respect and every pet like my own.
“Cheryl was awesome. She made both my dogs feel at home. She has a huge backyard. Her own dog, Gus, is super friendly. She also sent updates and pictures daily for the 3 days they were there. BROWNIE AND BARKLEY were safe and loved. I highly recommend Cheryl.”
“We were so happy that Shelleen and Bill took such good care of our 2 senior labs Bono and Jeter. They made them feel right at home and could tell they bonded with our boys. It’s such a relief knowing that it was a stress free environment for them and they seemed calm and happy when we picked them up to come back home. We would not hesitate to recommend or use their services again . Thank you!”
“We were nervous about leaving Sammie with someone we didn’t know, but when we did the meet and greet with Tina we knew she was the right person to watch Sammie. She answered all our questions, asked good questions, and she genuinely wanted to make sure Sammie would have the best stay while in her care. We received updates on Sammie’s walks, cuddle time, and if she was eating her food. We also received pictures of Sammie which put a smile on our faces. We were reassured that we had made the right choice. We would absolutely work with Tina again. 😊”
“Excellent experience with boarding our senior dog. Because of our dog's age, we usually travel with him, but in this case that wasn't possible. We met with Brian and his wife before our trip, which gave us an opportunity to see how our dog would fare while we were away, and we felt very comfortable with dropping him off with them. They did a great job taking some special instructions into consideration, given his age. You can tell right away that they are caring "dog people". They sent pictures while we were away, and were available for messaging during the entire trip. We would definitely recommend them as sitters.”
“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.”
“Bridgette was a great host for my pup-son! When i dropped him off, the first thing she said was, “I’ve been excited all day waiting for him!” How comforting that was to hear?! She sent ample pictures and even videos! She took him to the dog park, on long walks, and challenged him with puzzles. My little fella usually takes a while before he feels comfortable eating with a new sitter but he had no issues with her! She even fed him his motion sickness medication before I picked him up. I would recommend Bridgette to any and all of my friends/family. Your pup will be in good hands. Added bonus that she was able to squeeze him in on short notice!”
“Sydney was absolutely wonderful with Luna. She consistently sent pictures and thoughtful updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Luna looked genuinely happy and comfortable in her care. I truly can’t recommend Sydney enough!”
“Anmol, Trupti, and their boys were amazing with Dunston! They are the best sitters we have left him with! They sent us so many updates (photos and videos) so we were never worried about what was happening with Dunston. You can tell that they do this because of how much they love dogs and they showered our fur baby with love. Dunston got in the car and ran back into their garage when we picked him up because he wasn't ready to leave!! This truly is the best home away from home!”
“We can’t thank Rachel enough for watching Ralphie, on short notice too! He had such a great time and was well cared for! Rachel was extremely communicative and sent lots of photos. Ralphie also enjoyed playing with Chloe, who is such a sweet dog :) We definitely plan to contact Rachel again in the future!! Thank you so much!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for most of my adult life. My wife and I have made a point to adopt large older dogs that tend to be stuck in the shelter system. All dogs are good and deserve to live a fun filled, happy, and loved life. I am also recently pet CPR and first aid certified by The American Red Cross. Im currently working part time three nights during the week so I have plenty of free time to take care of your pups. Having recently lost our beloved Mastiff, I've been craving some pup time. I have a fully fenced in yard and have plenty of room to crate your pups. We recently lost our dog so we are pet free. Being dog people, we welcome your dogs like they were our family.
“Melissa was very friendly with Zuzu. Gave her lots of play time and long walks. She sent us lots of photos. Zuzu always looked like she was having a great time. Would definitely recommend.”
