“My puppies were safe and happy with Brandi. She sent me pics every day, and provided excellent communication throughout their stay. I won’t hesitate to book with her again!”

“Maellin was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter; she had excellent communication across the board. Sharing updates and photos of Navi every day. I could tell from the photos that she took such good care of her, Navi was smiling, and really warmed up to Maellin, which she doesn’t do with everyone. It was over the 4th, and Navi was quite nervous about the fireworks. Maellin took every measure to ensure her greatest ease and comfort, bringing her into their bedroom and turning on some background noise to help drown it out. Maellin is also a wonderfully sweet human; she will 100% be my first choice anytime we need care for Navi.”

“We have tried several boarding services for our dog Pepe and he always comes back sad. Our last trip Brian and Jerri watched him and he seems so much happier. They are great with dogs and really have a good understanding on how to handle them. We will definitely be using them again.”

“Our boys had a great time during their stay! Mina and Hannah were very accommodating, friendly, and caring. We really appreciated how well they took care of our dogs. We’ll definitely consider boarding with them again!”

“This is my first time using Rover. Safe to say Preston had a great time! He slept all day when I picked him up to take him home. I was very anxious about using Rover for the first time, but Bonni kept me updated with pictures every day and is very accommodating. Highly recommend.”

“Shell is amazing! We went an 8 day vacation to FL and left Maverick with her and she sent us photos every day of how he was doing, along with a video. The smile on his face in each photo and his wagging tail in the video confirmed that we made the right choice! We’ll definitely be bringing Maverick back to Shell! We are also so appreciative of her family as they take such great care of Maverick, also. We’re so glad that we found Shell!”

“Jamie and Patrick are absolutely amazing. Our Jane is very shy and can be difficult to deal with. We felt confident right from the start with their family. You will not be disappointed booking with them. We will definitely book again with them. Thank you for taking such good care of our girl! I would give a thousand stars if I could!”

“Cecilia is a wonderful caretaker for my dog Baldr, I have left him with her twice. She is very communicative and kind and I feel comfortable leaving my beloved older dog with her.”

“Amazing service and wonderful dog sitters. They went above and beyond and my experience was absolutely fantastic. They kept in touch and provided pictures. I will definitely be rebooking again.”

“Savannah took really good care of Maple. She was patient, understanding of her unique needs and helped fixed a nutrient problem we didn't realize was an issue. Maple came back "smiling" with the zoomies. We will definitely be using her again!”

“Crystal provided a wonderful environment for my dog Lucy. Her home is a dog (specially a husky) owner’s dream, with a big backyard and a tall fence which includes different areas for a pet to be mentally stimulated to explore. As a dog owner herself, she understands and learns the nuances of every pet so your pet will have such an enjoyable time that a repeat stay will seem like they’re going back to their second home.”


“Ashleigh and her family were great with my two dogs. It had been awhile since I boarded them and she made them feel right at home and sent pictures of them and sent updates frequently during their stay and made me feel at ease while they were in her care. My return trip was delayed and she was accommodating and flexible with the pickup time. I’ll definitely rebook with Ashleigh for future trips!”

“Liz was absolutely amazing with Muppet! Great communication and flexibility. She sent us daily messages with updates about Muppet's day, and lots of pictures. Liz was very professional, friendly, and loving with Muppet. Thank you so much, Liz!”

“My pup had a great time with Josie, her husband and especially their dog Paco. I got daily pictures and updates so that I never had to worry 🥰 Our dog needs daily medicine and they had no problem making sure she got it, they were even able to get around her pill defenses by putting it in cream cheese (a new trick I'm definitely adopting)! I was especially happy to hear how well our dogs got along and that lots of play and tug of war sessions were had 😄 Pepper was treated like family and we'll absolutely rebook next time we have to go away.”

“Patricia always does a great job taking care of my doggies. One of my dogs in particular is pretty emotionally sensitive, but seems to have a good time at Patricia's and always appears relaxed and happy in the pictures and videos Patricia sends. Patricia has also been able and willing to administer medicine and feed according to specific instructions. She was very flexible with us picking up the dogs later than anticipated after flight delays. Very happy we've found such a great sitter for our beloved dogs. She makes this part of traveling so much easier on me!”

“Joshua was great with our dogs. He has a big backyard with lots of room for play and relaxation. He was good at keeping us informed on how our dogs were doing and even sent pics. Love that he took the time to make sure our dogs got a walk daily. Will definitely use him again!”


About: I was born and raised with all kinds of dogs and love them all. I will love and care for yours like my own. I have one Jack Russell terrier named Jasmine. She loves all dogs. I’ve had older and younger dogs that have special diets and needed medication given and am comfortable with that if your dog needs it. They are free to roam night and day or you are free to bring a crate for them. I work at home so I will be at home all day each day. Growing up I cared for neighbors dogs and family dogs. We take walks each day if that’s something you’re comfortable with me doing. I’m currently working from home so I have plenty of time to love and care for yours pet. Doggie door that they can go in and out and I always go outside with them. I have a fenced yard and a small dog that yours can run and play with.Mine would love a play mate and someone to get the the zoomies with.

“Amber is very fast to respond and very professional. She even went an additional time to feed my cat when we where delayed. I felt at ease and that helped me enjoy our vacation. Thanks Amber!”


“Emma took very good care of our fur baby. Came over in morning and than again in the afternoon. Let our girl out and played and fead her. Was on Short notice. Will use her again if needed.”


“I would reuse Crystal over and over again. We have used Crystal three times now. She is professional, reliable, and overall just a great person. My cats adore her. She’s very responsible and attentive. If you are looking for someone to watch your pets, I seriously could not recommend Crystal more.”

“Savvy was great! She looked after our Phoebe kitty when she wasn’t feeling well. Phoebe had gotten an injury right before our trip and was full of medicine. Savvy was very communicative and sent us texts and pictures. Our three kitties were happy when we returned.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 14 years and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I have experience with both energetic dogs and senior dogs, so I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s needs, whether that means long walks, playtime, or a slower pace with extra attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own by providing plenty of affection, supervision, fresh water, exercise, and updates while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to making sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and happy. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, administer oral medications if needed, reinforce basic training routines, and accommodate any special instructions so your pet receives the care they’re used to at home. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide pets with plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I can accommodate walks, drop-ins, and sitting while maintaining a reliable routine. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort by treating every pet like my own. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, keep pets supervised, provide a clean environment, and make sure they receive attention, exercise, and affection. I understand that every dog has different needs, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences to help them feel secure while you’re away.
“Rae was awesome in taking care of our cat, Rico, while we were out of town for the weekend! She was very friendly and responsive, and we’ll definitely use her services in the future!”


“Sara did amazing and well exceeded my expectations for the care of my cats! She gave great updates and sent wonderful pictures. Would love to have her take care of my cats again.”

“Erin has been great with our kitties Zoey and Tango. She always shows up when she's supposed to and keeps us updated. The kitties really like her too! I would highly recommend her 😊”

“Brian accepted a last minute booking to come check in on my cat while I was out of town for work. He was very diligent about refilling my cats food and water and cleaning up after him. Brian was patient while my shy, anxious cat warmed up to him. When I returned home, my cat seemed so much less stressed than when I’ve left him in the care of friends or family, so I can tell Brian took good care of him.”


“Jennifer was such a perfect fit for my 14-year-old sassy cat! Carla purred with her right away and Jennifer took amazing care of her. I didn’t have to stress about Carla on my trip and it’s such a relief! I would hire Jennifer again and recommend her wholeheartedly.”


“Cheyne, P., took care of my 2 cats after I had surgery. She showed up on time, spent time with them, and did all the tasks on the to-do list. I will definitely contact her when I start traveling to take care of the animals and the house. Thank you so much, Cheyne, for all the love and care you give to all the animals you encounter. I enjoyed the pictures you showed me of your happy furry family members. Lynn S.”


About: I’ve lived with cats my entire life, and I know first hand what it takes to care for them. I’ve regularly cleaned litter boxes, played with our cats, and taken them to the vet. When we’ve gone on vacation ourselves, we’ve used cat sitters, and I’ve seen first hand the report they’ve left. I know what it takes to care for cats, and I have immense love in my heart for our feline friends.
“Lucy was great! She communicated well with us and sent pictures. The kitties were happy upon our return. She followed all of our instructions and we have already booked her again!”

“Martina is compassionate and seems to genuinely love animals. She is very bright, punctual, and affable. Martina is, in short, WONDERFUL and she did a GREAT job taking care of our special needs cat, Max.”


“Audrey is an amazing animal caregiver and kind soul. We all know our loved furry friends can sense this! My old Dog Pepper seemed to get a long right away with Audrey, and she’s normally very shy. I’m happy to recommend her services to anyone!!”

“Brian is great - our dog is pretty shy, but he has been really patient with her and now she is excited to see him and the other dogs. He is also great at communicating quickly. Very thankful to have a safe, fun place for our dog to go.”

“First time using Rover and Shell provided a great experience for me and my dog! She was very responsive to messages during pick up and drop off. My dog was super happy by the end of the day and had a great time running around with some of the other dogs. He was more than happy to come back for another day of fun a couple days later, making a beeline for the house whereas during the Meet and Greet he was much more reserved and cautious. Happy and tired dog at the end of the day makes our nights easier, and we look forward to more fun times at Shells daycare soon!”

“Brandi is so wonderful and patient. We were visiting in the area and I wanted to take my son to the Rodeo for the 1st time. So we neededa sitter for our Beagle, Bailey last minute. Brandi responded very quickly and kept us updated throughout the day. Thank you Brandi for taking care of Bailey so we could make some amazing memories.”

“Brian has a calm energy that the dogs immediately respected, and felt safe with a confident leader! Thank you Brian for your selfless service for us to go to our seminar and have no worries at all:)”

About: I have grown up on a farm and raised many different breed and species of pets. From cats, dogs, birds, cows, horses, chameleons, goats, rabbits, chickens, pigs, sugar gliders, and much more. I am a Veterinarian Clinical Assistant and work with a mobile pet clinic and also, came from a full service vet office. I have experience in training mainly food motivated pets on how to sit, speak, lay down, stay, paw or shake, and potty train. I’m working on as well how to heal and bigger dogs not pulling. Even senior pets I work well with and pet’s with health conditions like diabetes, etc. Have a comfortably of knowing your pet is in goid hands. Let me care and love your pet while you are working or away from home! The pets care fits around my part time work schedule. They will have a scheduled routine if I work part time that day. If im off work we will go to the park etc. I care for them by loving on them and spoiling them like they are my own, fot example my rottie that’s at home. I have so much love for animals that it is my career field after all. I will feed them, walk them, make sure they get daily exercise, and play time, as well as seniors if they have any severe joint problems I can help massage and make them feel better.
“My dog had a blast playing with the other dogs at the house! Brittany was great to communicate with and very flexible with scheduling. I will definitely plan more play dates with her and her pups!”

“Cecilia and family were very kind and understanding of Buffalo’s insecurity being left behind. Her dogs were very kind with my dog and had no issues. She kept in contact with me and sent me pictures that reassured me that Buffalo was comfortable and safe.”

About: My husband and I have two Australian cattle dog rescues with plenty of energy! We have taken care of puppies and senior dogs, energetic and calm dogs. I have previously boarded dogs in my home so I’m very comfortable with daycare and house sitting. I have done drop in visits and walks so I can provide that for your fur baby. I can and have given dogs any type of medication they require. Let me know what your needs are and I’ll let you know how I can help! Since I’m working from home meeting my dogs needs is not a problem. The dogs potty frequently throughout the day, they spend time outside, play time throughout the day and walks. I have taken care of many dogs in multiple dog households to solo households and can meet any need that they might require while I’m watching them.

About: I wanted a dog my whole life but my parents weren't pet people. I finally got my own dog as an adult when I also had two toddlers. It was way more work than I thought it would be, but training my puppy and watching him grow and teaching my kids about caring for a dog was so incredibly fulfilling! I loved learning about training and dog behavior and psychology and learned so much! I love all animals and especially love dogs and would love to share that love with your dog too!! I am a full time stay at home mom so my schedule is very flexible. Two of my kids are in school all day and I have a 2 year old who is home with me all day. I spend most of my time at home, with the occasional outings and errand running. Because I have a flexible schedule, I can fit your dog's schedule easily into mine. I can do potty breaks and walks whenever necessary and I live near a couple parks with dog runs that I like to take my dog to, so I could easily bring your dog as well. Though I am busy with 3 kids, I'm never too busy to love and care for extra pets! I have a fenced yard where your dog can go out for potty breaks. It is not a huge yard, but it is safe with rocks and turf where my dog uses the bathroom. My dog is inside for pretty much the whole day so your dog would be with him inside as well. I do have 3 kids, so your dog needs to be ok with small children, but they have all grown up with a dog and know how to be kind and respectful to dogs.
“Arysta is a godsend! She understands dogs and is a true "dog whisperer." Whenever I need to board my puppy somewhere I know he'll be safe and with someone I know is dependable, Arysta has my full confidence.”


“Lisa was absolutely lovely and my shy little dog was instantly comfortable with her. Lisa is very responsive given that I had a last-minute need for doggy daycare on an on a weekend day and she got back to me very quickly which I was grateful for. She has a kind, gentle demeanor, and from the videos she sent me, I got to see her adorable little poodle socializing with my pup. Maisie, my girl, clearly enjoyed it because het tail was wagging madly when they were together in the pictures and video. I’m so glad to have found Lisa and know that there’s someone really good in the New Rochelle Mamaroneck area”

“FIRST TIME USING THEM ….. AND THEY WERE GREAT SITTERS ….WILL USE AGIAN …. Love that they kept us informed and updated of there stay 5stars all day long …. Love Thor and Red”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was a child. Over the years I’ve grown to know more and more about animals and it has helped me care for my own fur babies. I’ve had a few family friends and family members count on me to check in on their pets or sit them when they’re not able to be home and they’ve continued to count on me. I also have experience caring for exotic animals. Anyone who needs care for those pets can message me as well! ** Please feel free to ask me about my coupon code for $20 off your first booking on rover :) ** I’m working part time and go to school full time so I have plenty of time for your pets on weekends and in between my work schedule! I have a fenced yard and 2 pups to keep your pet company. I also have a guinea pig who stays in his own room! I have two extra bowls I can provide if needed and an extra large crate to fit dogs up to approximately 100 pounds
About: Welcome to personalized care for your beloved furry friends! As a dedicated dog sitter (or cats,bunny,guinea pigs, birds, you name it!) I offer more than just sitting; I provide a tail-wagging experience filled with love, attention, and playful adventures. With a keen eye for each pup's needs and a passion for creating a safe and joyful environment. I'll ensure your dog feels right at home when you can't be there. Let's make their time away from home an unforgettable tail-wagging adventure! Jumping into experience and home life: I have taken care of pets, dogs specifically, since I was 9 years old. I am currently a stay at home mommy to my son (3 years old) and to our 3 bundles of joy. I love animals so much. They are more than just a pet or an animal, they are family. I will take care of yours with soft and gentle arms, as if they were my own. I do not professionally train, although both of my dogs are very good at what I have taught, (tricks and such). I also have no problems administering medications. I want to provide you a stress free getaway while know your babies are safe and sound. I will always send daily photos and/or videos of how your babies are adjusting to their stay. Our household is me, my fiance, our son and our three dogs. All of which will care for your babies just as much. I love that Rover allows us to provide personable stays to allow 1x1 tailored time with your pet that eases a lot of stress for everyone. I own an at home dog grooming kit which includes a dog vacuum that combs them while taking out the excess fur. Let me know if you need any deshedding services! My availability is totally available everyday! I work from home so I’m here on call for sure! If you are in need of drop-in visits, my fiance does come along for meet and greets and occasional visits as well. In both my home and my client's homes, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment for pets. This includes maintaining a consistent feeding and exercise schedule tailored to each pets needs. I ensure plenty of playtime and mental stimulation through interactive toys and games. Additionally, I maintain cleanliness by regularly cleaning feeding areas, litter boxes, and any pet messes promptly. Above all, I provide affectionate companionship and attentive care to make sure pets feel secure and loved while their owners are away.
“Melissa and her sweet family took such great care of my high energy dog. Not only did she send a ton of adorable pictures of the pack exercising & snuggling, but from the moment she greeted my dog, I could tell she was in good hands. I definitely will be using her services again, my dog came home super tired and looked so happy throughout the day! Thank you Melissa!”

“Jody was amazing with our new rescue, Teddy. She was very communicative and worked with us on all of Teddy's quirks like separation anxiety and leash reactivity. Teddy definitely had a fun day full of fun and adventure! We super appreciate Jody working with us on such late notice and for being so kind!”

“Marcy’s is an excellent dog walker and is amazing with our dog, who can be a challenge! We’re so impressed with Marcus’s patience and care for our pet😊”


About: Ever since I can remember, I've had a furry friend by my side. I've had dogs, cats, rodents, fish, and birds. I'll be more than happy to hang out with whatever species your babies are! I work nights, so im available pretty much every day to check in on your pets and/or take them on a walk. I work nights, so I'm usually available from 9:30am-4pm for walks and drop-ins, but occasionally I'm available past 4. I try to be as flexible as I can, and am usually available for short notice pet care. Please let me know if there are any special care instructions for your babies! I prefer to care for pets in their own home, but if your pet is okay around other dogs, I am happy to watch them in my home as well. I have a decent sized fenced yard, as well as 3 dogs and 2 cats. (Please let me know if your pet does not get along with other animals!) When I'm caring for pets in your home, I take care to respect your privacy and only go in the parts of your house that are necessary.
“Crystal has been walking our pup for like 6 months or more now, boarding him occasionally when we travel and shes the absolute best! We used to love closer to her place and then had to move across town and she continued to come walk Starz which was awesome! Shes really responsible, great at communicating and cares so much! We feel a 100% comfortable leaving our baby with her and would highly recommend her if you're looking for someone to walk your dog. Thanks Crystal!”

“Jennifer is awesome! She is always on time. She pays special attention to my dog to make sure he isn’t overheating on walks and he always comes back super happy!”

About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life. Since I was 12, it’s been my responsibility to take care of our English Setter. This began with me helping to train him. My role was to reinforce the lessons taught at the PetSmart classes. I’ve regularly walked, bathed, and taken to the vet our dog as well. I love animals of all kinds and care a lot about giving them the loving attention they deserve. I currently work part time 6 days a week, with Sundays off. I work from home, and regularly have mornings and early afternoons completely available. I have more than enough time for several appointments just about every day of the week. At the moment I do not own any pets, as my landlord does not allow it. I am unable to provide any services that would require my home. But I’ve lived with and cared for both dogs and cats my entire life, with great regularly since I was 12. I know what I’m doing when it comes to our furry companions. I’d love to provide walks, visits, and any other services I can.
About: I give your pets attention and affection, keeping them comfortable while you’re away. I send pictures most days to assure you all is well. My services include house-sitting, so your pets stay home where they’re comfortable. I have decades of experience with a variety of breeds. Let’s talk about what worries you and we’ll find a solution everyone is happy with! I’d prefer to visit your pets before securing the booking, to make sure we all get along. I am self employed and pet care is one of the ways I earn my living. I also work remotely for some of my clients and use the wi-fi to get tasks done. I have been house/pet sitting for decades. I treat your home as if I was a welcome guest, but not a part of the household. Over the years, I’ve had jobs where I was bonded for security, which means I have a clean record. I’ve been entrusted with confidential & proprietary information. I’ve adhered to HIPAA rules without breaking a sweat. I am trustworthy and friendly. I have a silly sense of humor and have skewed streaming algorithms with binging scifi. I’ve lived in the extremes of rural to urban environments. I can greet & thank people in ten languages. My idea of a party is a bowl of ice cream and a movie (sci-fi, British drama). Before we book anything, I’d like to stop by the house and give the critter(s) a chance to get a good look/smell of me and you can give me the lay of the land. Housesitting: I’m being hired to keep the critter(s) company, and that’s what I do. Nana comes to visit and keeping the house safe and the animal(s) safe and happy is my primary duty. My habit is to bring my own supplies, so when you get home, everything is how you left it. I have a ukulele and I sing familiar covers, so I’ll mention it now in case the neighbors mention something about it. (I have yet to have a dog howl as I sang, though the huskies were very talkative.) Drop-In: Depending on our discussion during the Meet & Greet, I will swing by your house according to the schedule we’ve set up. I will make sure the water is fresh and the food bowl has plenty of food. (My job is to make sure the animal(s) know they are being cared for and that they don’t have to stress about whether or not they will starve to death - I’m thinking of cats especially here who see the bottom of the food bowl and start to panic. Not on my watch!) Walk: I’ll be at your house at the time(s) we’ve discussed, put on the collar and leash, and set out on the adventure. My habit is to sing as I walk so that any other critter has a chance to get out of sight - a lesson learned by startling a skunk. It is important that I know if the neighborhood is friendly or if folks keep to themselves. Do(es) the dog(s) visit friends on the trail? or should I keep them on their own?
“Ethanee has been sitting/walking my oliver since he was two months old. He ADORES her and I’m so grateful for her care. She’s attentive, kind, communicative, punctual and respectful of my home/care requests for him. I will use her as long as her schedule allows!”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, giving me firsthand experience with their unique personalities, needs, and proper care. More recently, I was a member on another pet sitting website when I was a student at a university in Paris,France, where I had experience taking care of dogs and cats in my own apartment for a few different families for a period of time. The best part about watching pets is the pleasure I get from being able to give them love while their owners were away. I’ll be home in New Mexico for a few months before I return to Paris so my availability is completely open. I can watch pets any day and any hour. I’ll closely follow a pets routine, providing fresh water, food as instructed, exercise/playtime, medication if needed, a safe environment, and of course lots of love and affection.
About: "I've taken care of dog's and cats of every kind i have fostered through the city of Albuquerque for years and have my own dog's and cats. Animals are truly my passion and this wouldn't be just a "job" for me. I have a flexible a schedule and you can always talk to me if you need different days or hours we can go from there. I will take care of your fur baby as if was my own. I will listen to every detail you tell me and make sure it gets done and give your fur baby lots of love and pets.
About: I’ve always had a genuine love and respect for animals of all kinds. Caring for them isn’t just a job to me—it’s something I truly enjoy and take seriously. I have extensive experience around dogs through my father, who breeds and trains dogs for protection sports, so I’m comfortable and confident handling dogs of all sizes, including large and high-drive breeds. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m also passionate about learning more about canine behavior and training, with the long-term goal of becoming a certified dog trainer and participating in dog shows. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, some extra attention, or simply a calm and caring companion, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. ❤️ I have a flexible schedule and am available most days and times. I’m happy to work around your routine and accommodate your pet’s needs. I am really good at communicating any schedule changes. I care for every pet with patience, attention, and respect for their individual personality and routine. In my home or a client’s home, I prioritize safety, cleanliness, exercise, affection, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, walks, playtime, and any special routines. My goal is to give pets the same love, structure, and attention they receive from their own family.
About: My name is Julia! I’m new to Rover but not new to dog sitting! I have a dog named Dixie. Dixie is a Miniature Australian Shepherd and loves to play! We love to do everything together including car rides, going to the park, stores, walks, games, and enrichment activities! I have raised dogs my whole life but now I have Dixie. I am a huge worrier about leaving my dog with someone so I understand how important it is to have a safe place for your dog while you work or have vacations and that’s what I’m here for! I think it’s important to give dogs their best life possible 🤍 All dogs must be up-to-date on their flea and heartworm medicine. For Daycare: I currently work full time. I am off on Tuesdays so I can take some bookings on Tuesdays. I am pretty open on the weekends. When I go out, I bring Dixie everywhere with me, so I can bring yours too! For Boarding: I can take dogs for boarding, however on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays your dog would have to be crated for about 3-4 hours in the afternoon since no one will be home. Saturday and Sunday boarding I would be home all day! I have a fenced yard with certain areas blocked off that Dixie or other dogs should not go into. My gate is locked. I walk Dixie once or twice a day and play outside with her. I hangout inside when it’s hot out and play inside the house! I always make sure there is water and of course plenty of treats available!
About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs and cats since I was 8. Neighbors, friends, and coworkers have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe and entertain their pets. I currently work full time but am available 24/7 on the weekends. During the week, I can walk/feed/play morning and evening around my work schedule. I understand all pets are different and that their needs vary. I am flexible and willing to accommodate any special needs that your pet may have.

“Brittany was very responsive and kept me up to date with my dogs walk. Since she couldn’t walk them very long because of the rain she stayed and played with them in the house! Will be using her again!”


About: I have given dogs medicine and have experience with taking extra care of old dogs and puppies whose energy is off the roof. I have one huge dog so I’m also not afraid of pit bulls or mastiff’s and am able to fulfill any requests you have. I also have severe dyslexia so sometimes I may misread texts so please excuse any mistakes I make in reading or spelling. I have just started summer and go to unm as a art student so I am constantly having free time especially during the summer as my only plans are on Tuesday for counseling and Sunday’s for church. So I have a completely free week Everytime I go to a house I make sure to clean up after myself and to clean up extra just so when you come back it’s even cleaner than you lef!
About: I have had pets ever since I was 3 years old, I am now 20 and have lots of experience with taking care of them. I have also trained my dogs with the basics like, potty training, any tricks, simple house training etc. I am very experienced to take wonderful care of your fur babies and their needs. With my own pets I take care of them morning to night. I am home most of the time so I do spend time with them a lot but when I do leave my house I make sure they went outside before leaving and have plenty of water and food while I am gone. I always walk the dogs, follow any instructions that's given to me for the dogs care, eating habits, wash days, times to go out, and everyday I play with my own dogs keeping them active running around the yard and having plenty of toys. I also tidy up the house, sometimes with our fur babies the house can be a mess with toys all over and them shedding all the time so I can to provide that for you.

“My puppies were safe and happy with Brandi. She sent me pics every day, and provided excellent communication throughout their stay. I won’t hesitate to book with her again!”

“Maellin was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter; she had excellent communication across the board. Sharing updates and photos of Navi every day. I could tell from the photos that she took such good care of her, Navi was smiling, and really warmed up to Maellin, which she doesn’t do with everyone. It was over the 4th, and Navi was quite nervous about the fireworks. Maellin took every measure to ensure her greatest ease and comfort, bringing her into their bedroom and turning on some background noise to help drown it out. Maellin is also a wonderfully sweet human; she will 100% be my first choice anytime we need care for Navi.”

“We have tried several boarding services for our dog Pepe and he always comes back sad. Our last trip Brian and Jerri watched him and he seems so much happier. They are great with dogs and really have a good understanding on how to handle them. We will definitely be using them again.”

“Our boys had a great time during their stay! Mina and Hannah were very accommodating, friendly, and caring. We really appreciated how well they took care of our dogs. We’ll definitely consider boarding with them again!”

“Shell is amazing! We went an 8 day vacation to FL and left Maverick with her and she sent us photos every day of how he was doing, along with a video. The smile on his face in each photo and his wagging tail in the video confirmed that we made the right choice! We’ll definitely be bringing Maverick back to Shell! We are also so appreciative of her family as they take such great care of Maverick, also. We’re so glad that we found Shell!”

“Jamie and Patrick are absolutely amazing. Our Jane is very shy and can be difficult to deal with. We felt confident right from the start with their family. You will not be disappointed booking with them. We will definitely book again with them. Thank you for taking such good care of our girl! I would give a thousand stars if I could!”

“Cecilia is a wonderful caretaker for my dog Baldr, I have left him with her twice. She is very communicative and kind and I feel comfortable leaving my beloved older dog with her.”

“Amazing service and wonderful dog sitters. They went above and beyond and my experience was absolutely fantastic. They kept in touch and provided pictures. I will definitely be rebooking again.”

“Savannah took really good care of Maple. She was patient, understanding of her unique needs and helped fixed a nutrient problem we didn't realize was an issue. Maple came back "smiling" with the zoomies. We will definitely be using her again!”

“Crystal provided a wonderful environment for my dog Lucy. Her home is a dog (specially a husky) owner’s dream, with a big backyard and a tall fence which includes different areas for a pet to be mentally stimulated to explore. As a dog owner herself, she understands and learns the nuances of every pet so your pet will have such an enjoyable time that a repeat stay will seem like they’re going back to their second home.”


“Ashleigh and her family were great with my two dogs. It had been awhile since I boarded them and she made them feel right at home and sent pictures of them and sent updates frequently during their stay and made me feel at ease while they were in her care. My return trip was delayed and she was accommodating and flexible with the pickup time. I’ll definitely rebook with Ashleigh for future trips!”

“Joshua was great with our dogs. He has a big backyard with lots of room for play and relaxation. He was good at keeping us informed on how our dogs were doing and even sent pics. Love that he took the time to make sure our dogs got a walk daily. Will definitely use him again!”

“Marlena was such a fantastic sitter for our Pup. She has a loving home and family and welcomed our dog bob in right away. We got lots of wonderful photos and updates and our dog was hardly interested in coming home when we picked her up.”

“Cindy is awesome! The added plus is Dasha! Both took care of our Gin so well! Gin had a blast! Cindy ensures everything is covered and communicates often with pictures and videos. We just wished we could take Dasha back home with us. Thank you Cindy for taking such good care of our Gin!”

“Rachael was very accommodating in caring for our 1.5 yr larger puppy and was great in keeping us updated and sending pictures. We felt assured leaving our furry friend with her and rebook without hesitation.”

“Michael watched our fur baby for 13 days. She is approx. 14 yrs old, and we were worried about leaving her for such a long period of time. Michael's calm and easy demeanor was reassurance that she would be fine. She does not get along with other animals and as the only pet Michael watched he was able to provide her with individual attention. He sent photos daily, which we greatly appreciated. We will definitely use his services again. Michael, thank you for taking such good care of our family member!”

“Melissa and her fur babies made my Luna feel so comfortable and loved. Great communication and service! Luna gives 5 stars for the all the fun she had. Would def use this Rover sitter again!”

“Onrae is my very first Rover experience. Onrae responded quickly, professionally and was very responsive. I had concerns about my dogs behavior (he can be pretty high energy) Lucky for me Dashy was very well behaved at our meet and greet. After talking with Onrae a few minutes I had no concerns if Dashy did have any behavior issues staying there. When dropping off Dashy, he was excited to go in with the well mannered kids. I had prompt check in the next day. Basiclly Dashy did great and I had no concerned about his well being or about any behavior issues. Onrae is highly experienced and highly recommended. He's a no nonsense guy who seems to really care for dogs and client parents concerns. I will definately be using Onrae in the future!”
