“Paul & Kathryn took great care of Tyson and sent me many pictures, he really enjoyed being with them and their children. I had no concerns leaving him in their care and will continue to reach out them as needed...”

“This was our first time leaving Teddy for an extended stay with anyone outside our home and from start to finish we felt reassured and confident that our dog was in the best hands! Anmol & Trupti loved our dog as if he was their own! Frequent texts and pictures were so appreciated and we cannot thank them enough for caring for Teddy!”


“I never worry at all when we leave our young dog with Bob. He truly treats him like he was his own. Very attentive and accommodating. He has a wonderful fenced in yard where our pup can run around to his heart content without fear of getting out. Our Teddy is very social and Bob arranges some play dates with neighboring dogs which is great. Bob always sends pics and updates us throughout the stay. I highly recommend Bob for a stress free time away knowing your pet will be in very good hands.”

“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.”

“Meaghan was an amazing dog sitter! She took exceptional care of our Yorkie, ensuring she was well-fed, exercised, and happy throughout our time away. Meaghan sent regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind. Her love for animals is evident, and our dog clearly enjoyed time with her family and their dog. We highly recommend Meaghan for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you, Meaghan, for your outstanding service!”

“Wonderful experience from the meet until pick up. Meg able to accommodate us for a last minute boarding. She sent photos & video daily which was amazing. She also gave us detailed daily updates on how our pupper ate and played. 10 out of 10 experience!”

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.
“Eduardo took great care of my big personality dachshund! I needed last minute care and they were so quick and responsive. They sent photos during the stay and my pup had a great time! Will definitely use them in the future!”

“Neveen is perfect sitter . She is compassionate and caring . Lucy enjoyed her stay with Neveen . I felt that Lucy was cared for at Neveen’s home exactly as I care for her . I will definitely be a repeat caller on Neveen ‘s service”

“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.”

“Harleny was an awesome dog sitter. She took care of Ruby as if she was her own fur baby. Ruby also loved her a lot. She also shared lots of pictures and videos, which made me feel so happy and felt she was in safe hands even if we were miles away from her. Will definitely reach out to her on our next vacation.”

“Brian and his family were amazing with Shelby, I could tell from the meet and greet that this was where Shelby would get the best care. While on my trip I received multiple updates that put me at ease, I could see they treated Shelby as if she was their own. This has been the best experience I've had on Rover and will continue using Brian for every trip moving forward. Thank you so much!”

About: I have 25 years bird, cat, guinea pig & dog experience. It would be my pleasure to take care of your pets. I am an active animal rescue volunteer that is passionate about caring for animals. I currently have a 14-year old diabetic cockapoo (I'm comfortable administering insulin and other meds) and a 11-year old shih tzu puppy mill mother. My family and I have participated in the Pets with Wings program and brought homeless puppies back from St. Thomas. I also volunteer with Happy Homes and clean and socialize the cats at Petco Marlboro every Wednesday morning.

I will arrive at your home on time and follow your detailed instructions for caring for your pets. I can clean cages, litter boxes, walk pets, feed/water, administer medications and brush if needed.
“We were on vacation for a few days. We felt secure about our dog. I felt that our dog was left in good hands with Yvette. She was really wonderful and caring towards our dog. We really appreciate her handling of our dog during our vacation.”

“It was so nice leaving my dogs in William's care as he clearly loves dogs and enjoys taking care of them. They were well-cared for and William communicated well as to any questions or concerns and clarified any points about how I would like for them to be cared for. I will definitely be hiring William again in the future.”

“Bianca is an absolutely wonderful cat sitter. She looked after my cat with so much care. From the very beginning, she was highly professional, reliable, and communicative, sending regular updates and pictures that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely loves animals, and my cat warmed up to her immediately. I highly recommend Bianca to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter, and I will definitely be hiring her again in the future! Bianca, thank you very much!”


“Patti is so great! This is the second time we’ve asked her to take care of our little Leo 😊 She’s so kind, nice and caring. Our cat loves her so much! She’s not only feed him she also plays with him and cuddles with him which he absolutely adores 🥰”

“Jenna was amazing with our three cats. They were well looked after the entire week. Jenna was punctual, thorough, and made sure we were kept in the loop at all times. We highly recommend her, A+!”


About: I don’t just watch cats—I care for them with the same attention and affection I give to my own. I’ve had pets my entire life, and I’ve also worked professionally with a pet-sitting company, where I gained hands-on experience with cats of every temperament, age, and personality. I understand that cats thrive when their routines feel safe and predictable, so I make it a priority to learn their habits, preferences, and boundaries. Whether your cat is shy, senior, playful, or a certified lap-lover, I adapt to their pace and comfort level. I’m experienced in administering medications, including oral meds and topical treatments, and I’m patient with senior kitties who may need a little extra support. Cleanliness is also incredibly important to me—I keep litter boxes spotless, food areas tidy, and your home as neat (or neater!) than you left it. Most of all, I genuinely enjoy building trust with cats. I take time to talk to them, play with them, and make sure they never feel lonely while you’re away. My goal is that you come home to a relaxed, happy cat—and complete peace of mind.

“Bridget has become my go-to cat sitter. I have hired her several times to care for our 2 cats. She replies to requests super fast and communicates during each care visit. Very reliably and trustworthy.”


“We are so happy with Kimberley’s care of our cats while we were away. She built trust quickly with our cats, administered medicine and we knew our cats were in good hands. We will definitely book her again!”

“Finnian was available last min and responded super quickly which is always great in a pinch but not expected. He was open to all my directions for my new puppy and comfortable dropping in without meeting her and not knowing what to expect. Took adorable pics and sent great notes! I do the job full time and so far I’m happy I found him :)”

“Brittany was great with my kitties. Was receptive to any suggestions or changes that were made. Was very helpful when one of the cats got out because a friend of mine came to water the plants. All in all I would highly recommend her.”

“Allison was such an amazing sitter. We got pictures and updates daily. She loved on my Miso as if he was her own. I will absolutely be using Allison as our boarding sitter again. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking care of our boy🫶”

“We left our cat with Steve for five nights. We seldomly ever leave our cat who travels with us all around in our camper. Of course we were a little bit nervous, leaving him in a strange city. But, Steve and his wife were amazing! The communication was outstanding and the kitty care was excellent! Steve’s wife works at pet shop and her love of animals was clear. I would not hesitate to leave leave Moby there again. Thank you so much for being such caring people and great pet sitters!”


“Meaghan was able to accommodate our last minute request to cat sit and we were very happy with how communicative and professional she is! We will definitely use her again in the future!”


“Jamie has taken care of my 2 cats multiple times now and always does a great job! Whether it’s extras like making sure Cat TV is on for them, feeding, treats and playtime, the cats are always happy and well taken care of when I come back from trips :)”


About: I was born and raised with my childhood cat and took care of her until she passed when she was seventeen. I've cared for neighbor's elderly cats throughout the years as well as got a new cat named Stevie two years ago as a kitten.

About: Hi! I’m Ella, and I’ve been surrounded by cats for most of my life. I currently have two cats and grew up with another beloved cat who was part of my family for many years. I know that every cat has a unique personality some love to play and cuddle, while others just appreciate a calm, familiar presence. I also work at a pet store, where I care for animals every day and enjoy helping pet owners with their pets’ needs. In addition to caring for my own cats, I’ve looked after pets for friends and family, so I understand how important it is to keep your cat comfortable and maintain their normal routine while you’re away. Whether your cat needs feeding, fresh water, playtime, litter box cleaning, medication reminders, or simply some companionship, I’ll make sure they receive the same love and attention I’d give my own pets. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your baby!

About: I have often been a cat sitter for a few of my close friends, ranging from day visits to overnight stays. I have cared for more than one cat at a time as well, with an experience of caring for 2 in one household over the duration of a week.

About: I’ve been taking care of cats since I can remember. From a young age I loved rescuing cats off the streets and making sure they got proper care. I have a lot of experience taking care of people’s personal cats as well as taking care of them in a shelter environment. I have dealt with even the spiciest of cats with care !
“Lauren was absolutely wonderful and took such great care of my cat while I was away on vacation. She sent me updates and pictures every visit and was so patient with my shy kitty who spent her first few visits hiding. They ultimately became best buds which made me feel so much better about being away. I would definitely recommend Lauren and would definitely have her again!”


About: I’ve been lucky to care for cats most of my life and have spent over 10 years fully responsible for my own. I currently live with my sweet (and opinionated) cat Henry, and I truly enjoy getting to know each cat’s personality, whether they’re playful and social or need time to warm up. I’m patient, observant, and always adjust to what each cat needs. I understand that for many cats, this is their chance to get meaningful interaction during the day, and I’m happy to give them attention, affection, and enrichment if that’s what they want, or space and quiet if that’s what they prefer. I’m comfortable administering medications and always keep litter boxes extra clean because I know how much those little details matter. I’ve also had the chance to care for other people’s pets, and I’ve built quick bonds with even the shyest cats, which is something I’m really proud of. Friends and family regularly trust me to care for their pets, and I always treat that responsibility with the care it deserves. I’ll keep you updated with photos and check-ins so you can feel confident your cat is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away.
“Heather is very dependable and caring towards our Moochi. Although it had been many months since Moochi had seen her, he remembered her and rubbed against her when he saw her. Heather is also a very good communicator. I highly recommend Heather!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Wickatunk
“It was our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous at first, but that quickly changed once we met Evgenii. Our dog seemed to become friends with him right away! He kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us great peace of mind. We would absolutely book with Evgenii again whenever we are in the neighborhood.”

“Brian And his wife were so lovely with my dog! Before His first daycare day, we did a meet and greet where they asked throughtful questions about his meal sensitivities and tried to make him feel very comfortable. Would recommend 😊”


“Liia and Lucky are the best! Liia took great care and loved my dog just as much as she was her own. Lucky is a great doggie friend as well. Would highly recommend their home for your fur baby to spend time there.”

“Excellent communication and service! Very caring and attentive, answered all my questions, provided frequent updates and very accommodating to any requests made for my dog’s care. I knew my dog was in good hands right away and he appeared to have a great time with them! Highly recommend and Looking forward to using their services again!”

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, and two years ago I worked with a dog-sitting company—a truly rewarding experience. I love being surrounded by these four-legged friends, and I have a natural ability to communicate with them. I am currently off for the summer, but starting in September, I will be mostly available after 4:00 p.m. on weekdays and throughout the weekends. In my home, I focus on creating a safe, fun, and structured environment for every pet. We’ve recently added a secure fence to our extra-large backyard so visiting pups now have a spacious, supervised play area to run, explore, and burn off energy. In addition, I make sure dogs stay active and engaged with daily walks around the neighborhood, tailored to their age and energy level. In a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s routine as closely as possible—feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and walks—so they feel comfortable and cared for in their familiar space. My goal is always to provide consistency, safety, and lots of loving attention, whether I’m hosting your pet or caring for them in your home.

About: We’ve had dogs our entire lives and currently share our home with an Australian Shepherd, so we’re very familiar with active dogs and consistent routines. We’ve also fostered dogs, giving us experience helping pets feel comfortable in new environments and working with different personalities. We treat every dog like our own and focus on making them feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into our routine since we both work from home and are around throughout the day. Pets receive regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of attention in a calm family environment. With two adults home, we’re able to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and care while keeping pets comfortable and on their normal routines. Because we have two young children, we only accept dogs that are friendly with kids and other dogs. Dogs stay with us as part of our daily family routine and receive regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of attention throughout the day since we both work from home. We also have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and exercise. Our goal is to provide a comfortable, supervised home environment where dogs feel relaxed and cared for.

But I am also willing to go meet the dog at his home. If that’s the best safe and neutral environment.

About: I have 7 years experience taking care of my own 80 lb Greyhound, Chloe. Unfortunately, we lost her to bone cancer a few years ago. We have 2 kids who absolutely love dogs and we're ready to love a few more pets! We only care for one dog at a time so your pup can get all the attention they deserve!

Your dog will be in the best care while you are away! With someone home 24 hours a day, your dog will never be alone. While I do have a fenced in yard, I still believe walks are important for every dog. Boarding and doggy daycare options are available during the week and throughout the weekend. Medication administration is also available for your dog. My husband and I work opposite schedules. I'm currently working part-time, but my husband is home when I'm at work, so your pup will be cared for around the clock! Boarding and doggy daycare are available daily. I have a fenced in yard for pups to run around. I can also crate your dog at night or when specified. I can care for your pup however you see fit, including following specific feeding schedules or medication schedules.
“Kevin was fantastic to work with! He was communicative, respectful, conscientious of my needs, accommodating, and frankly such a caring individual. He helped me plan an out of state visit, was flexible concerning the timing, and best of all tired out my dog by the end of the trip. I would absolutely book with Kevin again!”

“Debi and her husband were really great with Aria! We felt comfortable that our puppy was in good hands! I will definitely recommend her! I feel bad that Debi is too far away for me to use her services regularly! I really wish she lived closer! If I get an opportunity I will use her services again!”

About: For years I have taken care of dogs big and small. I’ve been called on my neighbors, friends, and family to watch their fur babies while they are away. In the past I have come over for the routine feed and bathroom and kept company, boarded at my home, or stayed at their home if the dog is more comfortable in that environment I am currently a student, so you can often find me home studying. Studying can get boring pretty quickly, so I would love the company and your fur baby would be spoiled with love and attention I live in a single family home with a large fenced in yard and live within a short walking distance to a scenic walking path

“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.”

“Jenna is terrific with my dog. She patiently guides him into his walks, because he can be finicky. She is observant to notice ticks and/or other bugs or growths. She pay attention to details. I would recommend her.”

About: I have had dogs my whole life, some being high energy who play all day and some low energy who love to just cuddle and relax. Ive had 4 different breeds, from Pitbulls, Labradors, Huskies, and a German Shepherd. I know what it takes to make a dog feel at home and loved even if their owner isn't home. I love dogs more than most of the human in the world and trust me when I say your dog will miss me when I leave. I currently am searching for a job post college and waiting to enter a Police Academy in the coming winter. So I am available almost everyday and almost all day. I do have a dog at home that I take care of so if She needs to be walked I will do her separately. I have a energetic Husky at home so I know all about the high energy dogs, when I lived with my parents I had 2 couch potatoes so I know the best of both worlds. I love walking and running myself so having a furry friend with me just makes it even better.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs all my life, have had dogs of all sizes (from labs to terriers), and love all dogs no matter what. I am able to handle puppies, and elderly dogs.

About: Hi! I’m Ella, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. I currently work at a small business pet food and grooming store, where I spend my days with dogs and assisting pet owners with their pets’ needs. Being around animals every day has taught me how important patience, attention, and love are when it comes to providing great care. I also have two dogs of my own, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve regularly walked and looked after dogs for friends and family, giving me experience with pets of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels.

About: I have over two years of professional experience working with dogs and have been a dog owner for more than 15 years.

I live at home, so overnights at my home aren’t an option, but I’m happy to stay overnight at your home if needed. I am capable of handling multi-dog families. Due to my background, I'm used to seeing sibling sets of 2-3, despite never personally owning more than 2 dogs at 1 time

About: I grew up with a yellow lab and cared for her from adolescence to adulthood. I have experience with both dog and cat sitting, and often help family and friends ranging from overnight stays to day visits. I care for each pet as if they were my own, and I love working with a wide array of breeds and types. I will have a pretty open and flexible schedule, hence why I will be able to accept overnight stays. I will also have a vehicle as well, so it will be easy for me to commute to different homes. My own dog was raised in a very loving household, with a fenced in yard and she enjoyed long walks around the neighborhood. I am happy to feed the pet per the requests of the owner, as well as provide treats and playtime.

Anmol & Trupti loved our dog as if he was their own! Frequent texts and pictures were so appreciated and we cannot thank them enough for caring for Teddy!”

“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.”

“Wonderful experience from the meet until pick up. Meg able to accommodate us for a last minute boarding. She sent photos & video daily which was amazing. She also gave us detailed daily updates on how our pupper ate and played. 10 out of 10 experience!”

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.
“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.”

“Harleny was an awesome dog sitter. She took care of Ruby as if she was her own fur baby. Ruby also loved her a lot. She also shared lots of pictures and videos, which made me feel so happy and felt she was in safe hands even if we were miles away from her. Will definitely reach out to her on our next vacation.”

“Brian and his family were amazing with Shelby, I could tell from the meet and greet that this was where Shelby would get the best care. While on my trip I received multiple updates that put me at ease, I could see they treated Shelby as if she was their own. This has been the best experience I've had on Rover and will continue using Brian for every trip moving forward. Thank you so much!”

“We were on vacation for a few days. We felt secure about our dog. I felt that our dog was left in good hands with Yvette. She was really wonderful and caring towards our dog. We really appreciate her handling of our dog during our vacation.”

“It was so nice leaving my dogs in William's care as he clearly loves dogs and enjoys taking care of them. They were well-cared for and William communicated well as to any questions or concerns and clarified any points about how I would like for them to be cared for. I will definitely be hiring William again in the future.”

“I couldn’t be happier with the care Radwa provided for my Frenchie Ramsay. She was attentive, loving, and kept me updated with quick responses. Ramsay loved her and her children right away. My dog came back happy and did not want to leave. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring sitter. 5 Star all around.”

“I highly recommend Shelly! She was so amazing with the boys and incredibly accommodating when we had an unexpected change to our plans . We were sent lots of pictures and videos of their stay everyday. My dogs looked so happy and relaxed at her home ! Plus my dogs smelled amazing when I picked them up ! I am so happy we found her !”

“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.”


About: We’ve had dogs our entire lives and currently share our home with an Australian Shepherd, so we’re very familiar with active dogs and consistent routines. We’ve also fostered dogs, giving us experience helping pets feel comfortable in new environments and working with different personalities. We treat every dog like our own and focus on making them feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into our routine since we both work from home and are around throughout the day. Pets receive regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of attention in a calm family environment. With two adults home, we’re able to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and care while keeping pets comfortable and on their normal routines. Because we have two young children, we only accept dogs that are friendly with kids and other dogs. Dogs stay with us as part of our daily family routine and receive regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of attention throughout the day since we both work from home. We also have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and exercise. Our goal is to provide a comfortable, supervised home environment where dogs feel relaxed and cared for.
About: As a pet sitter, I provide personalized, compassionate care, ensuring pets feel loved, safe, and happy, while offering owners peace of mind through reliability and trust. I have a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide loving and attentive pet care. I am also available for boarding on both weekdays and weekends. For boarding in my home, I will provide a safe, loving environment with a fenced-in yard for play and exercise. Visiting pets enjoy companionship with my two friendly dogs and receive attentive care tailored to their needs. In clients’ homes, I will ensure your pets feel comfortable and cared for, maintaining routines and providing love and attention as if they were my own.
“Lori was wonderful with Lili. Since we have had her we were told she isn’t great with other dogs so we were a bit nervous with having her around multiple dogs. But Lori made us feel comfortable that she would be able to help her out and she sure did! Lili had a great time playing while we were away and being around the other dogs. We can’t thank her enough and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

“Was worried since this was a first time visiting this house with Milo and Maui but they looked so comfortable! I was so happy to see my cats and Lenny was so sweet and caring. Both my cats were able to have seperate rooms which was also so great.”
