Tucker had a fantastic stay with Rebecca! We were extremely nervous because this was our first time away from our pup. Rebecca put us as ease with daily picture updates. Tucker was well loved and cared for while we were away for 10 days.

I can't say enough positive things about Paola! Our dog has separation anxiety and is always very anxious when we're not with him, but somehow Paola made him feel right at home and completely comfortable during his stay. She sent us multiple pictures every day and was very at ease knowing our dog was being very well taken care of!

We had Corrine watch Ollie from Thursday through Monday, and Ollie had a great time! Corrine took great care of him and was very communicative throughout his stay. She sent us photos daily, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. It was also really nice that we were able to visit Corrine before our first drop-off to make sure Ollie would feel comfortable. Her place is perfect for dog sitting, especially with the backyard she has specifically for dogs to go out, play, and enjoy themselves. By the time we picked Ollie up, he was all tuckered out, which is always a great sign. We would definitely recommend Corrine!

He was well taken care of and we could relax and enjoy ourselves. We will definitely book with Carol again when we need a sitter for Max. Thank you!!

I was nervous to leave our puppy for the first time but Thomas made me feel comfortable after our meet and greet. My 6mo old is a little bit anxious around new people but I felt comfortable leaving him. Thomas sent updates and even let my puppy sleep in bed with him. He was also super accommodating when I mixed up days in my booking. Would 100% recommend Thomas

Nicole took such amazing care of our dog Dakota while we were away! We’ve used her twice now, and both times Dakota came home sooo happy. You can really tell Nicole genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. She even recommended a great groomer for Dakota, which we really appreciated. She has a nice backyard, and her kids and dogs are super friendly, so Dakota had plenty of fun and social time while staying there. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Dakota was in such good hands. We highly recommend Nicole — definitely a 5-star experience!

About: I have cared for puppies, as well as adult dogs and aging dogs. I love them all and they all sense it when I meet them. I am retired, so I have a lot of time and a very flexible schedule. Also, I am up very early in the morning, and like getting an early start. I have a partially fenced yard, so would be more comfortable with your dog n a leash or inside the house if at my home.

Jennifer took incredible care of my two-year-old cat, and I couldn’t be happier! This was my first time having someone outside of my family pet sit, so I was definitely nervous — but Jennifer instantly put me at ease. I left very specific instructions and shared my worries with her, and she went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. She kept me updated after every visit with detailed reports and plenty of photos, which I truly appreciated. From her updates and the way my little guy looked in the pictures, I could tell he trusted her completely and felt safe and loved in her care. I’m so grateful I chose Jennifer and would book her again and again without hesitation. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and attentive, I highly recommend her!

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly can't imagine life without them. I've owned both large and medium-sized dogs over the years, so I'm very comfortable handling and walking big pups with confidence. Whether your dog loves a long adventure, a leisurely sniff-filled stroll, or just wants some extra love and attention, I'm happy to meet them where they are. I recently worked as an adoption and foster counselor at an animal shelter in St. Louis, where I had the opportunity to work with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I'm comfortable handling dogs who are dog-reactive, dog-aggressive, leash biters, or shy and fearful, and I know that every dog deserves patience, kindness, and understanding. My own two dogs are my whole world, and I know how much trust it takes to leave your best friend in someone else's care. I'll treat your pup like one of my own—with plenty of love, attention, and lots of tail wags along the way! 🏆 Certified in Fear Free Training 🏆 I currently work from home with a very flexible schedule, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. Whether they love extra walks, playtime, cuddle breaks, or simply having someone nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away! At this time, I provide pet care exclusively in my clients' homes, where your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I'm happy to help with everything they need, including walks, feeding, fresh water, brushing, playtime, potty breaks, medication (if needed), and, of course, lots of love and attention. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible—for both you and your furry family member!

About: I have owned, rescued and fostered many dogs over the last 25 years. My experience lies in many sizes and breeds. I am also trained in CPR and first aid just in case an emergency arises. I have a special place in my heart for seniors and I have provided a loving home to several of them in their golden years. Dogs, like us, have personalities, quirks and mood swings. They can and will test us. My many years of experience and love for dogs gives me the patience and understanding to deal with difficult situations. I am available full time and on weekends to provide the time and attention your dogs and cats need. That would include drop ins, feeding, walking, poop cleanup and YES even baths. I can also administer medications. Dogs require a structured routine with both feeding and exercise. Your dog is your family and I will treat them like a member of my own pack.

About: I am a lifelong cat lover with a special place in my heart for shy, quirky, and special‑needs kitties. I share my home with three wonderful cats who have cerebellar hypoplasia, so I’m deeply familiar with caring for felines who move through the world a little differently. I’ve learned how to support cats who are shy, quirky, slow to warm up, or who need extra patience to feel comfortable. Since I work mostly from home, I have the time and calm environment to give your cat the gentle, attentive care they deserve — always at their pace.

Paula was honestly the best dog sitter we could have ever asked for. She is humble, kind, and was absolutely wonderful with Cappucino. She was very, VERY patient with him, through his stubbornness, active personality, and especially his barking. I couldn’t ask for any one better to care for my dog. Cappucino is stubborn and it isn’t easy to get him to trust you, especially if he barely knows you. But somehow, Paula managed to win him over! I was so happy when I found out they were starting to become friends. She send us updates, messages, and pictures throughout our entire stay, and is surprisingly quite a nice photographer! I recommend Paula to everyone, and would give her a 10/5 if I could. You won’t regret having her care for your pup!

About: I have been a dog/cat owner since I was two years old and there is no pet I do not love. I have owned German Shepherds, Australian Shepherds, Mixed breeds, a Papillion, a Great Dane as well as a Himalayan and an Orange Tabby cat. I am able to spend a lot of time with any age pet and treat them as if they’re my own. Being disabled I’m home a lot. I have a fenced in backyard where your dog would be free to run and play. I use a walker. My home has an elevator. Therefore, it is not a problem to let them out frequently. Just let me know what your dog loves and I will make sure they have the best time possible! I do not work. I am disabled. Therefore I’m home a whole lot, probably too much. This enables me to spend quality time with your pet. I have a fenced in backyard. I do not have any dogs or cats of my own. Therefore, I am able to devote all my time and attention to your loved one.

About: A true nature lover I love ALL living things! Yes spiders and snakes too. Especially those who can love back . I've rescued and cared for almost every species. Elder dogs and those with health issues. Medications, injections I'm able to deliver it all. My schedule used to revolve around one of my Yorkies 12 hour insulin schedule. I cooked his meals took him for long walks. He loved the water and we spent long hours at the beach. He recently passed at age 15. I'm now willing to share with other pups who need some care and stimulation. I have a large fenced yard and a pool which one of my dogs and another I sit for loves! My other 2 are couch potatoes and are content to lay in the shade although they do enjoy their walks. We exercise rain or shine

About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for pets at every stage of life. I’ve taken care of puppies who need patience, structure, and reinforcement of basic training, energetic adult dogs who thrive on activity and routine, and senior dogs who require a gentler pace, medication awareness, and extra attentiveness. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s specific needs, whether that means reinforcing potty training, maintaining feeding schedules, administering basic medications, or simply providing calm companionship. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I work fully remote from home and have flexibility in setting my schedule. This allows me to plan my day around walks, feedings, playtime, and any specific care needs your pet may have. I’m home throughout the day, so your pup won’t be left alone for long stretches and can receive consistent attention, bathroom breaks, and companionship. Because I structure my work independently, I can easily adjust my schedule to maintain your pet’s normal routine, whether that means early morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening wind-down time. It’s important to me that pets feel comfortable, engaged, and cared for, not just supervised.

About: I've had my own dog for the past 9 years, and caring for them has taught me how important consistency, patience, and love are. Although I'm new to Rover, I'm excited to provide a safe, comfortable home for dogs during the workweek. I work from home Monday through Friday, which allows me to give plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles while following each owner's routine to help their dog feel happy and relaxed. I work from home Monday through Friday, so your dog will have plenty of supervision, companionship, and care throughout the day. I provide regular potty breaks, playtime, and exercise in my fenced yard while following your dog's normal routine as closely as possible. Whether your pup enjoys relaxing, playing, or just being near someone during the day, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a securely fenced yard and one friendly, fully vaccinated resident dog. I will introduce dogs slowly and always prioritize a calm, low-stress environment. If separation of the two dogs is important to you, I can also accommodate that request. I also have three children (ages 16, 10, and 4), who are in school for most of the day. While I'm working from home, visiting dogs stay with me in my home office so they're never without supervision. When my children return home, visiting dogs have the option of remaining with me in my office in a separate area from the rest of the household if they need a quieter space or if separation is the safest choice. I can provide either a crate-free stay or crate your dog if that's part of their normal routine. I'll always follow your care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special needs, so your dog feels safe, comfortable, and at home.

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and the experience I've gained caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I volunteered with ACCT Philly Animal Shelter, where I helped care for both dogs and cats with a wide range of temperaments and needs. That experience taught me how to be patient, attentive, and adaptable, whether working with energetic puppies, shy rescue dogs, or senior pets that need a little extra care and compassion. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, my family always had multiple pets, and I was known as the one who spent the most time caring for them. Whether it was feeding, walking, playing, or simply making sure they felt safe and loved, I naturally took on that role because I truly enjoy being around animals. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable while you're away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience because they're a puppy or senior, I'll treat them like they're part of my own family. Pet care isn't something I fit into my routine—it's a part of my everyday life. I truly believe that when you choose to have pets, you make the time for them. The people closest to me joke that I'm a bit of a "helicopter mom" with my animals, but I think that's exactly why we have such a strong bond. I love going above and beyond to make sure my pets are happy, healthy, and enriched. On nice days, I bring my cats out onto our secure porch so they can safely enjoy fresh air and sunshine. I hide treats around the house to create little "brain games" that keep them mentally stimulated, stay on top of their grooming and hygiene, and make sure each of my pets gets one-on-one attention every day. I think it's important that every animal feels loved as an individual, not just as part of the group. That same level of care is what I bring to every pet I look after. Whether it's sticking to their normal routine, making time for extra play, or simply giving them companionship while you're away, I'll care for them with the same dedication I give my own. I believe the best pet care starts with understanding both the pet's needs and the owner's expectations. I'm also a strong advocate for respecting boundaries—both yours and your pet's. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your furry family member can feel nerve-racking. My goal is to make that experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Whether you prefer frequent updates, lots of photos, detailed visit summaries, or specific instructions on how you'd like your pet cared for, I'm happy to accommodate your preferences.

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly can't imagine life without them. I've owned both large and medium-sized dogs over the years, so I'm very comfortable handling and walking big pups with confidence. Whether your dog loves a long adventure, a leisurely sniff-filled stroll, or just wants some extra love and attention, I'm happy to meet them where they are. I recently worked as an adoption and foster counselor at an animal shelter in St. Louis, where I had the opportunity to work with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I'm comfortable handling dogs who are dog-reactive, dog-aggressive, leash biters, or shy and fearful, and I know that every dog deserves patience, kindness, and understanding. My own two dogs are my whole world, and I know how much trust it takes to leave your best friend in someone else's care. I'll treat your pup like one of my own—with plenty of love, attention, and lots of tail wags along the way! 🏆 Certified in Fear Free Training 🏆 I currently work from home with a very flexible schedule, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. Whether they love extra walks, playtime, cuddle breaks, or simply having someone nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away! At this time, I provide pet care exclusively in my clients' homes, where your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I'm happy to help with everything they need, including walks, feeding, fresh water, brushing, playtime, potty breaks, medication (if needed), and, of course, lots of love and attention. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible—for both you and your furry family member!

I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. From energetic puppies, to senior pets that need extra care and patience. I currently work in Long Branch from 9-5 Monday-Wednesday, but am available before or after those hours. As a pet owner I understand how nerve wracking it can be to find a trustworthy pet sitter to take care and love your pet like their own, and I make sure to give your furry child the same love and attention! I work full time working in office Mon-Wed, but am remote Thursdays and Fridays. I’m willing to work out a schedule with as much flexibility as I can for you. Whether your pet steps into my home, or i step into yours i’m willing to accommodate to your pets needs. I have a 2 year old beagle is very energetic, friendly, and playful and a 7 year old siamese who likes surprisingly likes dogs. I have a large fenced backyard with EVERY possible exit area sealed.

I also have a puppy camera that I leave on in my living room to check on when i’m not home.

About: I have owned, rescued and fostered many dogs over the last 25 years. My experience lies in many sizes and breeds. I am also trained in CPR and first aid just in case an emergency arises. I have a special place in my heart for seniors and I have provided a loving home to several of them in their golden years. Dogs, like us, have personalities, quirks and mood swings. They can and will test us. My many years of experience and love for dogs gives me the patience and understanding to deal with difficult situations. I am available full time and on weekends to provide the time and attention your dogs and cats need. That would include drop ins, feeding, walking, poop cleanup and YES even baths. I can also administer medications. Dogs require a structured routine with both feeding and exercise. Your dog is your family and I will treat them like a member of my own pack.

About: Hi! My name is Mia. Anyone who knows me knows how much I love my dogs; being able to love and take care of my three munchkins is one of my favorite parts of being alive. That being said, half of my heart will always be with animals. I grew up in an incredibly dog-loving family. We unfortunately never had any cats, but I have assuredly tried to change that; unsuccessfully :( From a very young age, I was constantly put in charge of keeping an eye on my dogs while my family was out or had company over. I realized I didn’t mind at all! I currently have three pups! My senior Lab mix, Oreo; a Cavapoo, named Charlie; and a Cockapoo, named Benny. I won't be shy to repeat how much love and joy these dogs give me every day. Since being the token dog-babysitter all my life, my family encouraged me to find a job at my local doggy daycare. I had always admired how much thought and detail they put into their business, and was excited for the opportunity to be surrounded by animals all day, MY DREAM! I ended up being very disappointed, however. It turns out my version of pet care didn’t exactly align with theirs. Since there are SO many animals in that facility, they did everything in a very one-size-fits-all manner. 4 walks a day, feeding, group playtime, next dog. In theory, that was an honorable system with that many dogs in one building. However, I had always wanted to go dog by dog, get to know them, sit in their kennel with them, and take my time. I wasn’t always able to do that due to the system already put in place. I realized each and every animal are so incredibly different and fluid in their own way. They require different things, have different habits, like things a certain way, and have different backgrounds and preferred environments. For example: my dog, Benny, was rescued from a foster family that takes in animals that are up for euthanization. We aren’t fully sure of what Benny’s life was like before that, but we know he was tossed around to households that didn’t treat him the best. This makes him the extremely reactive dog he is today. It is very frustrating to have a pet who attempts to bite every single stranger that he doesn’t know very well, but that makes it all the more worth it. To know that we are able to be that safe, loving family for him; To know that we are working on his anxiety towards new people in the most gentle way possible, like so many other families have failed to do. All of this to say I like to take my time with all puppies and have lots of experience with reactive/senior pets! I prefer to get to know them, adhere to their routine, likes and dislikes, and make sure my care is at the utmost quality as they’d like it. I have fortunately reclaimed my token-dog-babysitter title and have been able to take care of many of my friends’ and family's pets for weeks/days at a time, and would love to do the same with yours! Also PS: I do not require any pet sitters myself, so the “My Pets” tab is empty. All of my babies are in my “Photos” tab. I am currently a college student, so my schedule is pretty much limited to Friday-Sunday for long term care. Along with another part-time job. However, my schedule varies week to week, so if there is any point where you would need care during weekdays, I am completely open to coming up with a solid plan and schedule. I much prefer to go to the clients home, since my three pups don't exactly love the extra company. However, I am very meticulous with the way I treat other peoples spaces and animals, as I have mentioned before. I would not like anyone coming into my home, and not honoring it the way I see fit. I also have a very OCD system, where I ensure everything is clean and where it should be before I leave. Again, this is your home and your system, there is no reason it should be disrupted. All that being said, your pet is my #1 priority. After reading my "get to know me," I am sure you are very familiar with my method and how much time I like to take with animals. I also realize it would be really hard to explain my own dogs specific routine to anyone else, but I WANT YOU TO BE AS SPECIFIC AS POSSIBLE! If they will only take medication every night with a certain flavor of pill pocket, or only can be hand-fed their breakfast/dinner; I want to know it all!

About: After 30 rewarding years of working with children and adults with special needs, I have recently retired and am bringing my lifetime of patience, empathy, and intuitive care to your beloved pets. I understand that every animal is a unique individual. My career taught me how to read subtle body language and provide a calm, reassuring presence. Whether your dog wants to curl up on the couch for endless cuddles or a shy, anxious friend needs gentle space and time to warm up, I naturally adapt to their emotional needs. As a proud owner of a sweet senior dog myself, I am well-versed in the slower paces, gentle handling, and extra TLC that older pets require. I can be available during the week or on weekends in the mornings afternoons or evenings for drop ins, belly scratches, walks, meals, and whatever else your pet needs. I cannot bring pets to my home at this time. Though I have a large fenced in yard, my senior girl might have trouble with company if she’s having a tough day with her arthritis.

Elder dogs and those with health issues. Medications, injections I'm able to deliver it all. My schedule used to revolve around one of my Yorkies 12 hour insulin schedule. I cooked his meals took him for long walks. He loved the water and we spent long hours at the beach. He recently passed at age 15. I'm now willing to share with other pups who need some care and stimulation. I have a large fenced yard and a pool which one of my dogs and another I sit for loves! My other 2 are couch potatoes and are content to lay in the shade although they do enjoy their walks. We exercise rain or shine

About: I was a veterinary technician for years and I just love and adore animals. I can administer medication if needed, and give a lot of love to your pets. I currently work part time at a restaurant in the evenings so I am free all day. I can also come by after work if needed. I currently cannot care for pets in my own home because I have a dog who is not accepting of other animals in her home.

We had Corrine watch Ollie from Thursday through Monday, and Ollie had a great time! Corrine took great care of him and was very communicative throughout his stay. She sent us photos daily, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. It was also really nice that we were able to visit Corrine before our first drop-off to make sure Ollie would feel comfortable. Her place is perfect for dog sitting, especially with the backyard she has specifically for dogs to go out, play, and enjoy themselves. By the time we picked Ollie up, he was all tuckered out, which is always a great sign. We would definitely recommend Corrine!

Danielle is absolutely amazing! This was our second time using her services, and we feel truly blessed to have found such a gem. She communicates consistently and clearly, shows exceptional care and attention to detail with our dogs, and is incredibly flexible when we’re in a crunch. We truly appreciate her dedicated service and everything she does for us.

I was nervous to leave our puppy for the first time but Thomas made me feel comfortable after our meet and greet. My 6mo old is a little bit anxious around new people but I felt comfortable leaving him. Thomas sent updates and even let my puppy sleep in bed with him. He was also super accommodating when I mixed up days in my booking. Would 100% recommend Thomas

We are very happy with the care Bowser received. From the minute Bowser arrived, it was obvious he felt very comfortable. During his stay he even learned how to use a doggie door following Kim's dog all around and playing with him. Kim did a great job and we definitely plan on using her again!

Christine was so great with our puppy, Callie. Callie was there for a full day / night. Christine made sure to keep Callie entertained the entire time. She brought her out with her and kept up with her energy! She provided lots of exercise including walks and a large fenced in backyard. Callie is a puppy and still is not used to sleeping alone, but Christine made sure to stay with Callie until she was calm and comfortable enough for bed time. We will definitely be reaching out to her again to sit!

Jenn provided the best care for our recently adopted french bulldog, Dr. Pepper. She kept intouch with me all weekend and sent lots of pictures. He seemed to really enjoy his stay with Jenn and her family. I would highly recommend her and we will definitely be using her again in the future.

Nicole took such amazing care of our dog Dakota while we were away! We’ve used her twice now, and both times Dakota came home sooo happy. You can really tell Nicole genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. She even recommended a great groomer for Dakota, which we really appreciated. She has a nice backyard, and her kids and dogs are super friendly, so Dakota had plenty of fun and social time while staying there. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Dakota was in such good hands. We highly recommend Nicole — definitely a 5-star experience!

This was our first time leaving Lincoln with Jouseline, and she made it such a great experience. She was an excellent communicator, sending updates and photos of Lincoln eating, walking, and enjoying his day. She was also flexible with our schedule when we needed to pick him up a little earlier. Lincoln came home happy and well cared for. We’ll definitely book with Jouseline again!

About: I have cared for puppies, as well as adult dogs and aging dogs. I love them all and they all sense it when I meet them. I am retired, so I have a lot of time and a very flexible schedule. Also, I am up very early in the morning, and like getting an early start. I have a partially fenced yard, so would be more comfortable with your dog n a leash or inside the house if at my home.

About: Your pet gets more than a sitter they get a new best friend! ❤️ Since I work from home, they'll enjoy plenty of love, attention, playtime, cuddles, and companionship throughout the day. Photo updates are always included so you can see all the fun! Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover who worked as a vet tech many moons ago while I was in nursing school. These days, I work from home, which means your pet will get plenty of attention throughout the day. My home is also full of fellow animal lovers! We have two dogs, a bunny, a love bird and a bearded dragon, and my two kids absolutely love helping care for our furry (and scaly!) guests. I'm also a bit of a homebody, so spending time at home with animals is truly my happy place. I can't wait to welcome your pet as part of the family! Your pet's comfort and routine are my top priorities! I have a large, fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play, and I'm always happy to take dogs on leashed walks for extra exercise and enrichment. I can follow your pet's regular feeding schedule, administer medications if needed, and tailor care to their individual needs and personality. Whether they love to play, explore, or simply relax with lots of cuddles, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home.
