“Bev watched my chihuahua for the first time. She came home happy and playful. I could tell she had a wonderful time. Also Bev’s comment was she sure loves her tummy rubbed which I knew meant if all she wanted was Bev to rub her belly she really liked her and trusted her. I will definitely be using Bev again soon.”
“Jordan and Nathan did an amazing job watching our dog Millie while we were away on vacation for a week. They spent a lot of time letting Millie get acquainted with their dogs and from the all the pictures and videos, we can see that they all shared their space together and Millie assimilated into their routine seemlessly. We looked forward everyday getting updates and pictures and it sure made us feel great that our dog was being loved and cared for by such a wonderful couple and their dogs, in their beautiful home. I already booked another stay with Jordan and Nathan for our summer vacation. Thank you Jordan and Nathan for all your love and kindness to Millie. We highly recommend them for their services !”

“First time using Rover so we were a little nervous but upon dropping Otis off but Danielle quickly set our minds at ease, She seemed very knowledgeable and caring. While we were away we received numerous photos and updates. Otis looked like he was having a great time playing with the other dogs and seemed to even fit in with Danielle’s family during a long Thanksgiving break. Definitely recommend and will book again next time.”

About: I absolutely adore animals but especially dogs, I worked at a dog kennel for two years, which has helped me to gain experience around dogs of any and all different sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments/requirements. I have been dog sitting/walking and doing overnight stays for 3 years and take great pride in taking care of your pet as if they’re my own! I am working part time at a kennel right now, however my shifts are very short (5 hours max but typically 2.5-3 hours). I get my schedule on a week to week basis, so if you want to guarantee that I have the availability to watch your pup, let me know at least 2 weeks in advance and I will happily request off from work to help you out (please still feel free to reach out even if its less than 2 weeks in advance, I likely will still be able to help you out). Having such short shifts, im available for pop-ins and walks the majority of the day, however there should be no problem with staying overnight as my latest shift is from 8:15-9:15pm at the kennel for let out. I will care for your pet as if it’s my own to ensure their safety and enjoyment for the time I am with them, as well as making sure your home is safe while you are away. I will follow any and all instructions that are given to me to guarantee everything runs smoothly and that your pup has a great and safe time!
About: I’ve been taking care of all different kinds of pets since I was 10, specifically many dogs. I’ve also fostered/trained multiple foster dogs for the past 6 years and cared for my senior dogs and dogs with medical needs as well. I used to have 3 of my own but now a single dog owner to the most welcoming dog who loves to be around other dogs.

I’ll try to ensure we can keep your pets on their normal routines. I have a large fenced in yard with plenty of space to run around and a loving dog who’s used to welcoming all pets and humans. She’s also used to sharing all her things. Proper introductions always required.
About: Cats are by far my favorite animals. I’ve loved cats ever since I was young. I have two fur sons of my own—Lincoln and Willie—and I have many years of experience around both male and female cats. I pretty much grew up with cats in my family home. I am very in tune with their needs and how they like to be taken care of. I am more than comfortable feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playing, and spending time.
“My babies are typically not too comfortable with people they do not know. Tatyjana Communicated with me that the dogs went under the bed but did not give up. She said she was trying to get them to warm up to her and they did. We will definitely have her back again.”
About: I have my own personal cat who is a rescue and I am her whole world. I have baseline skills in reading cat behavior and help nervous cats feel less uneasy in my mannerisms. I can play, feed, interact, change litter, groom, whatever you need and your cat will accept. I have even rescued cats from a burned house and was able to foster and rehome them. I’m the kind of sitter who gets down on the floor to play, encourages enrichment activities and treats your pets like the unique little personalities they are. Whether it’s energetic playtime, calm companionship, or sticking to a careful routine, I show up with matched energy, patience, and genuine care.
“Kevin kept an eye on my cats while I went away for Christmas. He was awesome! He was attentive to the cats when he came over, cleaned the litter boxes and gave them cat food. He even took the time to warm up and play with them for a while when he came over. I’ll definitely be using Kevin again anytime I need a drop in visit!”
“Spencer took great care of my two kittens during his drop-in visits and gave me real peace of mind while I was away. He was reliable, attentive, and clearly very comfortable with cats. He even scooped the litter box twice because one of my kittens likes to use it right after it’s cleaned. I would definitely trust Spencer to watch my cats again and highly recommend him.”

“Danielle was awesome! We left our 4 month old GSD with her for the better part of a day. Our pup seemed to be sad to leave her new friends behind when we picked her up. Danielle’s communication and scheduling flexibility is appreciated. We would definitely use her again if in the Buffalo area.”
“Natalie was amazing with our Standard Poodle Bowie. We were a bit nervous leaving him as he can have separation anxiety at times so Natalie made us comfortable with frequent updates and pictures. Highly recommend her!”
About: Hi! I’m Mary. I am a stay at home mom of 5 year old twins and a 12 year old shihtzu mix. I became a dog walker 5 days a week in September of 2024 by chance and realized how much I love it. I’ve been around animals my whole life, currently including my 8 chickens! If you’re looking for a dog walker, I walk in all weather. I can also just pop in and hang out for a bit and let them out for a potty, change litter boxes, feed, etc!

I can also quickly get acquainted with the safety features & layout of your house! I will make sure to ask any questions that are relevant to dogsitting at your house to make sure your dog's daily routine isn't disrupted
About: I’m a fun, patient, attentive and big-hearted animal lover with a lifetime of experience caring for pets. Growing up with a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, and reptiles, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs. I’ve cared for pets ranging from reptiles and fish, to senior dogs and cats, to puplies and brand new kittens. At 19, I adopted my first dog, a Bull Mastiff, and raised him from a 6-week-old puppy to a 140-pound adult. I’ve also cared for my family’s cats after my mother passed, and I lovingly adopted a 12-year-old Cairn Terrier, providing him with care until his passing at 16.5 years. While I have no formal training, I have a natural ability to train animals with patience and love, always using a firm yet gentle approach. I’m experienced in handling a variety of species, including reptiles like ball pythons and geckos, and have even assisted with rescuing wildlife. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals, my diverse experience, and my ability to provide both playful and responsible care. Your pet will feel loved, safe, and well-cared for with me! I live alone, lost the last of my own critters, and am a seasonal traveler. I go to Argentina for a couple months every winter so I can’t responsibly own pets of my own, but I am built to be around them! I need animals in my life so this is as much for me as it is for you. I work remotely so I have a lot of flexibility especially when it comes to sitting or walking from my home or town. I can be very attentive to your animal to whatever fits their comfort level. I am very active so am I game for hikes, walks, and lots of playing, but can also enjoy a nice sit and snuggle with an elderly friend. I live alone so there would be no triggers from children, other animals, etc. once they’re in my house. I live walking distance from several trails and parks. I also love taking dogs for car rides! Whatever they wish. I am very attentive so I ensure your baby will be content and cared for to the best of our ability.
“Ashley is so kind and educated. She made me feel so comfortable leaving my pups with her. She is patient and understanding of dog behaviors and boundaries and was willing to accommodate with love. We traveled to her from Indiana and will use her again on our next trip and strongly recommend that you do the same!”
“Lauren was amazing. I work long hours & she was always ready to watch Maggie early in the morning until evening. I really appreciated her being so kind to my dog. Maggie loved her!”
“Carol is truly a dog lover! It is great that she took our last minute booking as we came in to town to sightsee. Our girl was very well taken care of giving us some free time!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 17 years and have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their pets as if they were my own. I’m attentive to routines, leash safety, and each dog’s individual needs — whether that means a long, energetic walk or a slower, more relaxed pace. I’m especially patient with dogs who are nervous, shy, or need a calm presence, and I always prioritize safety, comfort, and positive experiences. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, and I’ve set aside dedicated time for dog walks! I’m flexible with weekday walks and happy to accommodate regular weekly schedules as well as occasional walks when needed. I focus on being punctual, reliable, and consistent so your dog can count on a familiar routine🐾 Your dog’s safety is always my top priority! I follow leash safety at all times, pay close attention to body language, and tailor each walk to your dog’s comfort and energy level. I’m careful with weather conditions, traffic, and surroundings, and I treat every dog and home with respect. I’ll always follow your instructions and provide thoughtful updates after each walk!
About: I am a recent college graduate. I work at two concert venues on most evenings. I love working with dogs and being around dogs. I am able to commute around Denver and can stop by frequently to check on your pet. I really enjoy going on hikes around Colorado mostly in Boulder, I am able to take your dog to a trail to hike to make the walk more enjoyable for the dog. I have 4 dogs of my own. I have volunteered for the Colorado puppy rescue for 4 years while I was in high school. I am able to stay overnight with a pet after I get off work and during the day most of the week. Thanks for considering me on Rover!
“I’m anxious to leave my dogs with others, but I could tell upon meeting Monica that they would be ok. She is a very sweet lady who obviously loves dogs and made ours feel at home in her comfortable home and nice fenced-in yard. In every way Monica was awesome! Anyone should feel comfortable leaving their dogs in her care.”
“We appreciate Mindy's flexibility with our dog sitting needs while visiting Buffalo. She was friendly and communicative, too. Our dog seemed happy and relaxed in Mindy's home. Will be using Mindy's services again.”
“We were just passing through on a road trip and landed tickets to see the Bills play so this was a last minute book. Sierra was wonderful with our Bella who has separation anxiety. She took it slow with Bella and soon Sierra had her eating (she has NEVER eaten a meal when we are not there with her), going for walks, and napping. I can tell Sierra was great with Bella because she was happy when we picked her up and went right to sleep when we got home.”
“We now call Dena, Aunt Dena, because for the short 8 weeks we were in Buffalo for work she and her family became Goose’s family. I can not say enough kind things about her and her family, all around great people and caretakers. I am positive that Goose misses his friends in Buffalo, I know I do, and hope to one day be back to visit. I am so thankful for all the time, commitment, and love she put into Goose.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I love and understand them. I can provide the level of care I would have wanted for my dogs, which was customized and specific with lots of attention. I am a homebody and work from home. I’m used to caring for my dog daily, she sadly just passed at age 14. I’m transitioning in work from a high stress job to finding a more fulfilling path. I go for daily walks on the walking path and of a stroller is needed, I have that too! And a wagon! I have two big fields where I live set far back from the road, a backyard and a walking path behind the townhouse. I can provide a safe, caring and catered environment for your dog while your away.

“Sierra could not have been better! As a first time Rover user with a dog that can be quite a handful, while also traveling out of state for a week+, my wife and I were a little worried. The experience was stress-free, my dog loved her, and Sierra went above and beyond in many ways. I would recommend Sierra to anyone and we are so glad we have found someone that can watch our little guy. Pretty sure our little guy was a little sad to see us walking in the door and not Sierra when we returned home.”
“Michelle is absolutely wonderful with Lucille. My 3 year old Bloodhound. I work a few long days every week. On those days Michelle come in for walks with Lucille.she is very dependable and trustworthy. Highly recommend.. I am so happy we found her!”

“Kevin was the primary care giver. He was helping me care for my husky with a wound. Kevin was patient and gentle with my dog. I was unsure how to get her foot soaked for 15 minutes twice a day. I am disabled and the vets office wasn't giving me any good advice. He showed me how to get her into the tub and keep her there for 15 minutes without over stressing her. He was very impressive. He obviously loves animals,and has a talent to calm them.”

About: My family has had dogs my whole life of different types and sizes, now I raise a mini Bernedoodle. I have taken multiple puppy training courses which I could apply to any age dog. I work in law enforcement. My schedule is flexible due to my job and I will update my availability ASAP according to my work schedule. I spoil my dog and will do the same for any that come into my home. No human food is my big rule. My Mini-Bernedoodle is just over one year now and raising her has been very rewarding. I have taken multiple training courses on training young dogs but could apply these concepts to any age dog. I have a good size yard which I am able to walk my dog around when she goes to the bathroom. My yard is 3/4 fenced in and my neighbor doesn’t have any pets.
About: I have a big house with room to run and play. I'm happy taking care of the puppies and dogs that aren't quite fully potty trained. My family dog in Florida is not spayed so I have experience with females in heat. I don't mind cleaning up messes because the house is all mine. I have 2 small dogs living with me that are very spoiled. My little Einstein has allergies so I buy him special food, shampoo, conditioner, etc to help with his itchy skin. He is a quiet little one who loves meeting new pups. My little Lola loves to cuddle and chew on her bone. You can be certain that your dog will be spoiled too. I also have 2 cats, Harley and Quinn, who have their own room where they love to play. As for me, I'm a Preschool Teacher. My work is right down the road so I come home and let my dogs out during lunch. My dogs go out every couple hours when I'm home. Spending time with my dogs and cats is probably one of my greatest joys.

“Tatyjana was phenomenal! She took great care of our 8 month old corgi, Poke, during his walk and was careful to not let our 3 year old indoor cat outside during the process! She is very professional, and made sure to keep us updated from the start of the walk to it’s finish. We will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.”

I follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any specific care requests to make sure each pet feels as stress free as possible. I love spending quality time with animals through walks, playtime, cuddles, and attention based on their personality and needs. In a client’s home, I make sure to respect the space, keep everything clean and organized, and provide regular updates with photos and communication so owners feel comfortable while they’re away.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I love and understand them. I can provide the level of care I would have wanted for my dogs, which was customized and specific with lots of attention. I am a homebody and work from home. I’m used to caring for my dog daily, she sadly just passed at age 14. I’m transitioning in work from a high stress job to finding a more fulfilling path. I go for daily walks on the walking path and of a stroller is needed, I have that too! And a wagon! I have two big fields where I live set far back from the road, a backyard and a walking path behind the townhouse. I can provide a safe, caring and catered environment for your dog while your away.

“Jordan and Nathan did an amazing job watching our dog Millie while we were away on vacation for a week. They spent a lot of time letting Millie get acquainted with their dogs and from the all the pictures and videos, we can see that they all shared their space together and Millie assimilated into their routine seemlessly. We looked forward everyday getting updates and pictures and it sure made us feel great that our dog was being loved and cared for by such a wonderful couple and their dogs, in their beautiful home. I already booked another stay with Jordan and Nathan for our summer vacation. Thank you Jordan and Nathan for all your love and kindness to Millie. We highly recommend them for their services !”

“First time using Rover so we were a little nervous but upon dropping Otis off but Danielle quickly set our minds at ease, She seemed very knowledgeable and caring. While we were away we received numerous photos and updates. Otis looked like he was having a great time playing with the other dogs and seemed to even fit in with Danielle’s family during a long Thanksgiving break. Definitely recommend and will book again next time.”

They’re reliable, communicative, and truly love what they do. We trust them completely and feel so lucky to have found them! Highly recommend!”
“Melissa and Gregory were incredible! This was our first time using Rover and they put us immediately at ease. They welcomed our rambunctious puppy into their home with open arms, making us feel confident that he would be well taken care of. He had some tummy troubles going on when we had to leave and they were so understanding, telling us not to worry. He made a mess in his crate one night because of this and they were so understanding, not bothered at all. They cooked up his brat diet (ground beef and rice) for several days until his stomach was working better. Leo came back to us healthy and happy. I highly recommend Melissa and Greg - they are just super!”
