“I highly recommend Jenn and Brian. They took great care of my senior dog, Dixie. I had never boarded my dog before so I was a bit anxious how things would play out. But daily communications and pictures were sent making me feel comfortable that I had left my girl with the right family.”
“Jackie made it possible to leave on a 2 week vacation. All 3 of our dogs were well taken care of. Jackie did everything we asked. We will definitely ask Jackie to take care of our family again. Thank you”
“This was my dog's first time with a sitter and he was visibly nervous when we first arrived, but Mindy was able to calm him down and make him comfortable very quickly. She sent many updates with pictures and videos and he was clearly very happy with her! I highly recommend her!”
“We were traveling out of the state and needed someone to take care of our 2 dogs while away. Just a quick weekend trip. I'll just say Monica is truly amazing. She took very good care of them. Playing and lots of cuddles. She sent daily updates with pictures and was so attentive to them. Always mentioned how they were doing and eating. I will definitely keep her as my repeat for any future vacations or quick getaways. Thank you again Monica!!”
“Michelle was an amazing with our shy foster dog Roxy! She was super patient, kind, and created a really loving and safe space for her to be comfortable with her. She has excellent communication with us so we were updated the whole weekend. Cannot recommend more!”
“Charlette was wonderful!!! Nikey does well with new people, but can get nervous in new environments. Charlette treated him with kindness and patience. She was able and willing to work with his normal routine and sent plenty of updates and pictures, which helped me feel at ease. Nikey warmed up to her, her home, and her family quickly. We are so happy to have connected with Charlette and will absolutely request services again!!!”
“Kiara & Yves, did such an amazing job with my little kitty. She was so well cared for and the sitter was super responsive sending many nice updates and photos of Lottie. I would recommend their services to anyone who was looking for a sitter!”
“Anthony did a great job taking care of my pup. She can be shy and fearful in new situations and Anthony did a great job to keep her calm and comfortable. She enjoyed playing with his dogs, Yoki and Canelo. I enjoyed receiving updates and pictures of my pup while I was away which helped me feel at ease. Anthony is calm, reliable and welcoming. I plan to use his services again when I need them.”
“I’m so grateful she accepted my dog last minute on the same day. She took amazing care of him and treated him like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving, reliable hands. We’ll be back!! Highly recommend!”
“Annalisa took such great care of my dog, Rukia, over the weekend! She was attentive, communicative, and made sure Rukia was comfortable and well cared for the entire time. I really appreciated the updates, and to top it off, she even gave Rukia a bath before pickup. Rukia came home happy, clean, and clearly well loved. I would absolutely trust Annalisa to watch her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet care!”
“Lulu had a blast at Courtney house. She took great care of her and Courtney always got back to me quickly with questions. We look at several sitter and we are so glad we found her!”
“Zero complaints. Went out of town for thanksgiving and she was amazing with our puppy. Gave me updates, bathed him before we picked him up. Highly recommend!”
About: Having cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages for over 15 years, I treat every pet like family. I understand that each dog has unique needs, whether it’s energetic play and long walks, patient puppy routine reinforcement (crate training, gentle redirection, and potty breaks), or calm, gentle comfort for seniors. I take pride in creating a structured, safe, and positive environment so your dog feels completely at home. You can expect frequent photo updates, open communication, and thorough attention to routines, feeding schedules, and favorite quirks while you’re away. Pet care integrates seamlessly into my daily routine thanks to my flexible schedule. Because I work independently from home, I have wide availability throughout the day to provide attentive supervision, frequent potty breaks, feeding, and interactive play sessions. I can easily accommodate weekday drop-ins, walks, and daycare, as well as overnight boarding and weekend stays without leaving your pet unattended for long stretches. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. In my home, pets enjoy a clean, pet-proofed environment where routines are respected and separate spaces can easily be arranged for feeding, rest, or crating whenever needed. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with complete respect, following your precise safety rules, leash protocols, and emergency procedures. You will receive regular photo and text updates so you always know your pup is safe, relaxed, and having a great time.
“Nichole took such good care of our dog, Juniper! She was so well cared for and enjoyed playing with Nichole's dog. Nichole sent lots of pictures and updates and even went as far as to clean her ears when she saw they were irritated. We could not recommend her more!”
“I booked Beverly because I thought she would take good care of my Lola while I was away. And she did. She messaged me almost every day I was away and sent pictures! Lola had a good time and got along well with Bev’s dog, Daisy. An added “perk” is the fenced in back yard where I knew Lola could do her “zoomies” safely. I didn’t worry about Lola getting good care while I was away. I highly recommend Beverly and would book with her again.”
About: I’ve been caring for my own dog, Layla, since she was 3 months old and she’s now 9 years old. Being a dog dad has taught me patience, consistency, and how important routines, attention, and trust are for pets. I understand that every dog has their own personality and comfort level, and I care for each pet like they’re part of the family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or keeping up with routines, my goal is always to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because caring for our own dog has already been part of our lifestyle for years. I work outside the home but have flexibility to take breaks and come home throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins. I understand every pet has their own routine and energy level, and I do my best to keep them comfortable, active, and cared for while you’re away. Creating a safe, comfortable, and trustworthy environment is very important to us. I've had my dog Layla since she was 3 months old and she’s now 9, so I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone who treats them like family. I follow each pet parent’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, routines, medications (if applicable), and preferred care styles. I offer boarding in our spacious two-bedroom apartment with access to nice grassy areas nearby for walks, potty breaks, and outdoor time. Small dogs are welcome on the furniture if that’s part of their normal routine and helps them feel more comfortable and at home. I also have our friendly dog Layla, who is already used to sharing her space and being around other pets, helping create a welcoming and pet-friendly environment. Our goal is to make every fur baby feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away.
“Denae & Mark provided a second home for my dog, who emerged from their care happier and healthier than when he started. They stayed in regular contact to ease my mind, and I highly trust their capabilities in caring for canines.”

“Emily was wonderfully patient with our shy but sweet cat and quickly made him feel comfy enough to come out for cuddles and play time. Communicative and took the cutest pictures along with the updates. Next time we're out of town we'll definitely be booking again with Emily.”
“Andrea is amazing, 100 percent recommend. She is responsive, flexible and sends great pictures. I loved knowing my cat was in such caring and capable hands.”
“Bri is an excellent pet sitter—I can’t recommend her highly enough. She’s taken great care of my cat several times while I’ve been on vacation. She’s informative and responsive and knows how to administer medication.”
“Brianna is a lifesaver! She had already been doing a fantastic job caring for my cat Thor (a very spoiled and special boy,) while I was all the way on the west coast, his daily pictures showing a happy kitty. I ended up having to reschedule my flight multiple times, and I believe had to rebook Brianna about 3 times! I ended up needing another 2 weeks or so of in-home care, and she took care of Thor with no issue and made this stressful delay so much less so as I knew my baby was being taken care of. She really went out of her way to make sure he was happy and had what he needed even in the most terrible weather. When I came home my place was clean and neat like I had left it (not even litter box smell,) mail on the counter, dishes cleaned, and even my plants were all perfectly healthy. Thor was in a great mood, I was so happy to find him feeling so well and not depressed or in a down mood from me being gone so long which he usually is after I've left him for a while - and I know that's because Brianna not only made sure he had his basic needs met but because she spent quality time with him. I can't thank her enough!”
“Jenna took exceptional care of my cats during my time away, ensuring they were fed and happy! She was also able to administer topical medication to one of my cats, making sure everything went smoothly. Jenna followed all of my instructions carefully and was very communicative during her visits, which was much appreciated. I would absolutely trust Jenna with my pets again and highly recommend her services!”
“Elisabeth took incredible care of my cat while I was away! I got plenty of photos and she was even kind enough to give in to his daily demands to be brushed. It was such a relief to know he was well taken care of while I was gone for two weeks. Elisabeth was able to step in and extend her visits when my return trip was delayed for a day. Highly recommended!”
“Ariana is fabulous and was so accomodating to my needs to add more visits. My kitty loved her from the very first visit. She took photos that relayed my kitty’s demeanor and she kept me informed about a food issue. I will use her again for sure!”
“2nd time booking with Ciara! Very thorough and took great care of our boys! Kitties were loved, instructions were followed completely, and they absolutely love her! The boys can be a bit picky/shy, but they gravitate towards Ciara and she is so sweet with them - sending me detailed updates, pictures, and videos along the way to make me feel comfortable and let me see my babies in the meantime! I have absolutely no doubt that they are well taken care of when she's there. Would recommend her in a heartbeat ❤️”
“Emma was fabulous in taking care of my boys! She was even able to get my stubborn kitty to take more of his meds than I could, no small feat. She was great about providing updates and following complex care instructions.”
“Michelle was a great cat sitter for Cheddar! She dropped in 5 times for us, was on time, communicated with us, and took care of Cheddar’s needs while we were away. Michelle has helped us twice now and we will book her again in the future. Thank you 😺”
About: I have take care of dogs and cats since I can remember. I’ve always had family pets that I looked after. Recently I started to pet sit professionally and have looked after pets with all manners of personalities and needs. I am currently working full time with a hybrid schedule. Monday through Wednesday in the office and Thursday through Friday remote. I am free every weekend and anytime after 5pm. Because each pet parent is unique and has their own ways to raise and care for their pets I strictly adhere to their rules and guidelines. That includes areas they have their pets walk and house rules for those that request house sitting.
“Gretchen took amazing care of my cat, Dory, while I was away for 5 days! I got updates and photos after every visit, which gave me so much peace of mind. She went above and beyond with the litter box, fresh water, driving to me, and taking the trash out before I got home. Couldn’t have asked for better care. Highly recommend!”
About: Ive had three cats in my life. Currently I have two cats and they are my world. In many instances I've had a cat or dog that doesn't like anyone besides family come up and become my new best friend.
“Once again Hailey did an outstanding job caring for our diabetic cat. You can tell she truly cares about the animals she is caring for and takes excellent care of the home as well. Highly recommend her for your pet sitter needs!”

About: I have raised two dogs (one large bread and one small bread) both from puppy to 16 & 17yrs old. I have had three cats (one still residing with me). Currently I dog sit two fur babies since 2020. In a week I am losing one of my buddies due to his parents relocating. I am already missing him and am hoping to make some new walking and cuddling partners. I work part time on weekends but can sit with advanced notice. Monday til Wednesday I am available for anytime on shorter notice. When I have your furry sweetheart I do not leave them by themselves at all,so I like to schedule when there is nothing to conflict with the time I have them. When in my house they have no restrictions from me, only what the parent wants. I have an outside bathroom area on leash for quick bathroom trips. I like to go for at least one or two long walks per day, weather permitting and your dogs abilities. I live in a walkable neighborhood and close to parks. When at your house I will follow whatever routine your partner is used to.
“Very nice people and effective communication for any issues or questions about my dog, Pluto Gave me updates during his stay with them! I also would like to thank them for working with me around my late arrival for pickup and thank them for taking him in, even if it was a last minute request.”
“Mindy is an excellent, patient and understanding dog sitter. She watched our puppy for a few days, and made more progress with his loose leash walking than we’ve managed to! She’s a real animal lover, and it shows. Our puppy was super exited to see her when I dropped him off on his third day with her. He got to play in the backyard with other dogs, get accustomed to cats thanks to Mindy’s social Bengal mix, and got plenty of walks, exercise and cozy naps. She sent me photos and videos throughout the day.”
“Alexis is a wonderful dog sitter. She is responsive and understanding of my dogs individual needs. He's an older boy and appreciates a good lap or couch for requent relaxation and Alexis is willing to provide that. This was our second time at doggy day care with Alexis and he rushed out of the car to visit her again!”

“Laura was amazing with my off the wall super energetic 3 month old springer spaniel puppy!! She is a super experienced trainer and was amazing at providing a balance between structure/close monitoring for safety and a lot of fun play time for my girl. She sent a lot of updates and advice that was very helpful for our training as well! Laura went above and beyond and even gave me tons of training tips outside of the visit because my pup is very difficult and has been struggling with separation anxiety. Best value out of a Rover stay I’ve ever gotten!”
“This was a last minute booking and Holly was more than eager to watch our Anakin. Holly was a delight to meet, very friendly, outgoing, and personable. She was great with Anakin and sent us updates, pictures throughout the day and had him play with her dog and asked if she could give him things before providing anything. Holly made us feel at ease and Anakin was very happy when we picked him up and even got a new toy which he has not let go. We highly recommend Holly for your pet care needs and will use her again if we’re in the area. Thank you Holly!”
About: I love dogs and I've been caring for dogs for over 5 years. I love walking them and play with them. I believe dogs are human's best friends. They're the best listener when you need to talk to someone :). I would like to take care of your dog while you can't. I will make sure they're being taken good care of. I have a large fenced yard and close to a dog run. I like taking them there when the weather is nice. I will tailor your dog caring style and make sure your best friend feels like he's home. Thanks for your time, and remember to enjoy the rest of your day and you know you can have a peace of mind :)
“I feel like Courtney isn't just the best dog sitter, she's one of the best humans. She was so welcoming and understanding of my not completely house trained pup, and she's almost like a trainer as well as sitter. She's worked on crate training and commands with my pup, even letting me borrow things to help at home. Five other sitters denied my request to watch a puppy, but Courtney is the ultimate dog lover, and honestly has more patience than anyone I've ever met. My only concern is that my pup loves being at her house maybe more than mine, since Courtney's dogs are her new best friends! I can't recommend her highly enough, except I'll be sad if she ever ends up booked when I need her. I couldn't imagine using anyone else.”
“He’s a great person and a huge animal lover! Apollo loves him and loves playing with the other dogs. I highly recommend Jose for all your pet sitting needs, he’s the best!”
About: One of my biggest passions is saving animals lives through fostering. My fostering experience has provided me many skills necessary to care for animals with varying needs, including young kittens, diabetic cats, XXS chihuahuas, and XXL breed dogs. Due to my experience in healthcare, I've provided many sub-cutaneous injections for diabetes maintenance and drug responsibilities. I've handled many small rodents including mice, and am comfortable with handling and providing care for smaller pets. I've managed care for animals with severe anxiety by providing them with daily psychiatric meds, and animals needing physical support with supplements, weight loss interventions (diet foods and safe, increased exercise), as well as animals with stranger fear. As a full time professional student, my mornings are often occupied by lectures, and Tuesday/Wednesday afternoons may be partially occupied for school responsibilities. I am very flexible, and can attend to pet care duties before, in between, and after my classes. I am open to over night stays and higher-maintenance care tasks, such as providing care for animals that require behavioral or psychiatric support during their family members absence. I enjoy playing with pets, within their boundaries of comfort. I have become apt at recognizing animals mood states, so I can properly respond to fear, excitement, anxiety, pulling on the leash, and over reactivity as necessary. I enjoy taking dogs on frequent walks if that is comfortable for them, and give occasional treats to reward 'good' behavior, such as sitting or laying down on command, and waiting to be fed. I am comfortable being cuddly with animals, and being very close and physical with them, if that fits in their boundaries. In my apartment I cannot host dogs, however, there are many parks and fields right in my backyard that I can bring your dogs to that they will enjoy.
“Charlette accommodated our day care request last minute and took such great care of our dog! She was kind when we needed flexibility with drop off. She sent adorable pictures through the day, and our dog was so happy and tired on pick up. Highly recommend!”
“Crystal handled my two rescues wonderfully. It was their first time being somewhere without us and everything went great. She was great at giving updates and sending pictures. We plan on booking with crystal again in the future.”
About: Hi there! I'm Caitlin, and for the past 13 years, I have gained extensive education, training, and experience with all types of animals. I have been with Rover since 2014 and have had over 190 clients through the years. As a proud professional, the experience under my belt includes: - Solo management of a small, rural cat shelter - Behavioral and adoption staff at a large urban animal shelter - Dog and cat training - Fear free certification - Management staff for boarding and daycare - Professional bathing/grooming - Exotic animal handling - Bachelor's degree in Animal Behavior Besides my professional experience, I have been a pet owner my whole life - dogs, cats, and exotics included! Right now - I have four beloved cats. ** Currently, my preferred clients are cats, small dogs, seniors, and more relaxed pets. I am not suited to care for strong, energetic dogs who need extensive exercise. ** In-home boarding and dog daycare are services I vet very extensively and am particular about due to my cats. While I do offer the services, it is always better to choose a house sit/drop in visit with me instead - these I can be much more flexible about. Some other services I provide beyond the basics include: - Wedding pet care and assistance - Pet transportation - Travel pet care and assistance - and more! I am a *CONSTANT CARE SITTER!* That means, I am in your home for the vast majority of the day, due to my day job being completely remote. While some others may need to step out for a full work day, I commit my time to YOUR pet(s) and YOUR pet(s) only - which sets me apart from other sitters. You may see that my husband, Josh, is also on my profile. He will occasionally help me with some services, but I am the primary sitter. I will always let clients know if he is going to be present for any services. While I work remotely, there are times I am unable to step out for long periods. Please note that because of this, all drop ins requested must be flexible within timeframes: 7am-11am or 11am-5pm. Safety for pets and myself is and always has been my top priority. I am proudly fear free certified and have worked on extensive safety training measures in all of my professional working environments. I know how to use all types of equipment (leashes, collars, harnesses, e-collars, etc) with ease.
“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.”
“Raisa is an awesome sitter. Very responsive on the app and kept me well informed throughout the day with pictures and messages on how he was doing. She has a yard with ample space for your pup to run around and have fun. Will definitely use her services again.”
“Rosalyn was exactly what you want in a doggy sitter and went above and beyond to make Marli’s very few experiences away from home exceptional! Marli and their doggy Lilly had a great day together. I would highly recommend Rosalyn to anyone who wants a sitter that makes your doggy feel special and loved. 🐾💚💜”

“Andrea was very easy to work with and left lots of funny updates about our dog on his cold winter walks. Made us feel like he was well loved while we were out of the country”
About: I have experience with seizures and strokes in dogs, am able to administer any kind of medication, and have some experience with animals struggling with anxiety. I am a graduate student just looking for some fulfilling part time work. I am available at any point during the weekdays and after October 31st on the weekends I will not be able to host any animals, but I plan on prioritizing the pet’s comfort within their own home and making sure all needs are met
“The proof of Jackie’s expertise is with the pups. They adored her. She is obviously a dog person. We’ll be booking her again as a sitter. I know that bean and sprout will have a wonderful time with her. Thanks Jackie!”
“Kate was great! Came the night before to meet our new puppy and worked with me to rebook as I realized I booked the wrong date. Kate took good care of our puppy, sharing pictures along the way. Will look to retire in the future. Thanks Kate!”
About: I have taken care of all sorts of household pets my entire life, i am a expert belly and chin scratcher, love going outdoors on walks or staying in to keep them company, and have extensive experience cleaning up all sorts of pet messes! I am visiting NY for two months to take care of my Aunt and wanted to do some pet sitting on the side to get out of the house and enjoy some sweet local animals! I care for animals based on your specific requests, whether that is coming by frequently for potty breaks, going on long walks, staying inside, or required brushing, I customize my care to your specific needs!
“Brianna was absolutely wonderful. So kind and caring, she took such good care of my puppy like she was her own. Took her on walks, played with her, laid with her, fed her made sure she went to the bathroom before she left. Will be using her again!!!”
About: Hi! I’m Morgan, a Canisius graduate student with lifelong experience caring for dogs—including my lab mix, Apollo, who’s back home while I’m at school. I’ve dog sat for friends and family many times, and I’m looking to love on your pet like they’re my own. I’m clean, reliable, and happy to help with walks, feeding, and even baths. Whether your pup needs a playmate or a calm companion, I’ve got you covered. I know routine is key. I am primarily online student. I am happy to discuss a schedule based on what your pet is used to. I’m committed to meeting your pet’s unique needs—whether that means checking in a few times a day, heading out for walks, or being a close companion while you’re away. I’m happily active, highly adaptable, and always focused on creating a safe, loving environment for your fur baby. You can count on me to be attentive, respectful, and clean in your space. Sometimes I’m not in Portland, but I keep my service area and calendar up to date.
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life, and I’d be thrilled to care for yours. I’ve been a pet owner for 15 years, and over those years that has included a black lab, 2 chihuahua rescues, a German shepherd, a pitbull, and a Corgi/Husky mix. I’ve also looked after the pets of my family and friends for extended periods, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I take pet care seriously not just the fun parts like playing and walking, but making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Your peace of mind matters just as much as their happiness. I’m able to care for dogs from small breeds up to about 100 lbs. As part of my services, I can walk your dog around your neighborhood so they stay in a familiar environment, and I’m happy to play with them indoors or outdoors based on your preferences. I can also administer oral medications if needed. I'm currently in between jobs so I am available weekdays between 9am and 2pm and as needed on weekends! With enough heads up and communication I could probably make almost anything work! I have plenty of experience walking and playing with dogs of all sizes so I am more than able to handle your little fur babies as well as the big ones. I love just hanging out with them if that is more their vibe as well. My own dogs are couch potatoes so I know how much value a little quiet down time can go a long ways too.
About: I have experience caring for both cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies who need plenty of play and structure to senior pets who require extra patience and gentle care, I understand that every animal has unique needs and deserves individualized attention. I've cared for a variety of breeds and temperaments, and I'm comfortable following specific routines, administering detailed care instructions, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away. I also have experience caring for pets with disabilities and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and adapting to each pet's individual needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply a calm, reassuring presence, I'll provide dependable, compassionate care and treat them as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring, capable hands. I'm currently seeking a full-time position, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, I can provide consistent, reliable care throughout the day. I'm committed to accommodating your pet's routine and will communicate with you regularly to ensure you have peace of mind while you're away. I care for pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can stay in a familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. Before each visit, I take the time to understand your pet's schedule, personality, and any special care instructions so I can provide the best possible care. During visits, I make sure your pet has fresh food and water, plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. I'm happy to accommodate each pet's individual needs, whether that means a long walk, extra cuddle time, or a slower pace for senior or special-needs pets. I also keep litter boxes clean, clean up after pets, and make sure your home is left just as I found it. Communication is important to me, so I'll send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away.
“Rebooked Callie for a midday break. Excellent with our 14 week old puppy! Patient. Callie also has an eye for good photo angles and has sent some of our cutest pictures we have of Benson, which is especially nice because these puppy years go by so quickly and before you know it, you’ve forgotten to document it. Highly recommend Callie for your pet.”
About: I have trained 2 dogs from puppyhood. We recently lost our beautiful lab/Shepard rescue, Dianna to heart failure. She loved her walks and we miss her dearly. I am certified in pet CPR and first aid. I love to interact with both dogs and cats. I will bring affection and adventure to every walk to ensure you dog gets the most out of their exercise time where they gather the neighborhood news! I am retired, my wife still is working full time, my son is in college, so I have plenty of flexibly in my schedule. I am very active and use to take our dog on several walks a day. I am offering services as a dog walker, so this does not apply to me at this point in time. I will provide this information should my services change.
About: I've been a cat dad of my own and looked after friends' and family's cats and dogs for 20+ years, including those in good health and those with special healthcare needs, like regular medications, etc. I love playing with them and just hanging out together...Basically just being pals! I'm not working full-time currently, I'm available every day of the week for pet care needs. Right now my main responsibilities are to the beck and call of my own 7-year-old Calico cat Partridge. I am very adept at dealing with feeding cats and dogs, dog walking, cleaning/clearing litter, and socializing with cats and dogs at their own comfort level. I have experience with special feeding routines such as pill and oral syringe feeding, and with application of topical medicines/ointments.
“Claudia was wonderful! It was the first time I used the service and was nervous to depend on someone I didn’t know to take care of my spoiled and very naughty golden retriever puppy (10 months). Claudia put me at ease immediately as she took notes during our conversation and came every time she was scheduled, sending pictures and notes. She asked very good questions and it was clear she had a lot of experience with dogs. I would highly recommend Claudia and loved the way the Rover system is set up.”
About: Having cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages for over 15 years, I treat every pet like family. I understand that each dog has unique needs, whether it’s energetic play and long walks, patient puppy routine reinforcement (crate training, gentle redirection, and potty breaks), or calm, gentle comfort for seniors. I take pride in creating a structured, safe, and positive environment so your dog feels completely at home. You can expect frequent photo updates, open communication, and thorough attention to routines, feeding schedules, and favorite quirks while you’re away. Pet care integrates seamlessly into my daily routine thanks to my flexible schedule. Because I work independently from home, I have wide availability throughout the day to provide attentive supervision, frequent potty breaks, feeding, and interactive play sessions. I can easily accommodate weekday drop-ins, walks, and daycare, as well as overnight boarding and weekend stays without leaving your pet unattended for long stretches. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. In my home, pets enjoy a clean, pet-proofed environment where routines are respected and separate spaces can easily be arranged for feeding, rest, or crating whenever needed. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with complete respect, following your precise safety rules, leash protocols, and emergency procedures. You will receive regular photo and text updates so you always know your pup is safe, relaxed, and having a great time.
About: Hi! I’m a passionate animal lover with a lifetime of experience caring for all kinds of pets. I currently have two big, lovable dogs—a German Shepherd and a Cane Corso—as well as two cats, so I know how to handle different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Whether your pup is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, they’ll get personalized attention and care like one of my own. Hi there! My name is Isabella , and I’m a professional hairstylist working Wednesday through Saturday. On my days off, I’m looking to spend more time doing something else I love—caring for animals. As someone who has had pets my entire life and currently owns two dogs (a German Shepherd and a Cane Corso) and two cats, I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and compassionate looking after your furry family members. I’d love the opportunity to help out with dog walking or pet care when you need an extra hand. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. At home, I provide a structured, loving, and safe environment for my pets, which includes two large-breed dogs—a German Shepherd and a Cane Corso—and two cats. I focus on consistent routines, daily exercise, mental stimulation, and plenty of affection. My pets are well-socialized, receive proper nutrition, and are always kept clean, comfortable, and happy. Whether it’s going on long walks, engaging in playtime, or simply giving them the attention they need, I treat each animal with the respect and care they deserve. My experience with a variety of temperaments and needs allows me to confidently and responsibly care for others’ pets with the same level of dedication.
About: I have been a dog, cat and all manner of other animals mama for more than 30 years. I believe that our furbabies are family and I treat them as such. I have never met an animal that I didn't love. I look forward to loving your babies the same way that I love mine and giving them as much attention and love as they can handle. I currently work my "real job" from home and can do it anywhere there's an internet connection, so, I am hoping to make a little extra money on the side doing something that I absolutely love which is taking care of animals. I have open availability and can usually accommodate most any need within 24 hours notice and if it's something as simple as a walk that you need on the fly, I can usually accommodate with 4 hours notice. I understand that care looks different for every animal, even ones in the same home and am dedicated to taking care of your fur babies in the exact way you want them to be taken care of.

“I highly recommend Jenn and Brian. They took great care of my senior dog, Dixie. I had never boarded my dog before so I was a bit anxious how things would play out. But daily communications and pictures were sent making me feel comfortable that I had left my girl with the right family.”
“This was my dog's first time with a sitter and he was visibly nervous when we first arrived, but Mindy was able to calm him down and make him comfortable very quickly. She sent many updates with pictures and videos and he was clearly very happy with her! I highly recommend her!”
“We were traveling out of the state and needed someone to take care of our 2 dogs while away. Just a quick weekend trip. I'll just say Monica is truly amazing. She took very good care of them. Playing and lots of cuddles. She sent daily updates with pictures and was so attentive to them. Always mentioned how they were doing and eating. I will definitely keep her as my repeat for any future vacations or quick getaways. Thank you again Monica!!”
“Michelle was an amazing with our shy foster dog Roxy! She was super patient, kind, and created a really loving and safe space for her to be comfortable with her. She has excellent communication with us so we were updated the whole weekend. Cannot recommend more!”
“Charlette was wonderful!!! Nikey does well with new people, but can get nervous in new environments. Charlette treated him with kindness and patience. She was able and willing to work with his normal routine and sent plenty of updates and pictures, which helped me feel at ease. Nikey warmed up to her, her home, and her family quickly. We are so happy to have connected with Charlette and will absolutely request services again!!!”
“Anthony did a great job taking care of my pup. She can be shy and fearful in new situations and Anthony did a great job to keep her calm and comfortable. She enjoyed playing with his dogs, Yoki and Canelo. I enjoyed receiving updates and pictures of my pup while I was away which helped me feel at ease. Anthony is calm, reliable and welcoming. I plan to use his services again when I need them.”
“I’m so grateful she accepted my dog last minute on the same day. She took amazing care of him and treated him like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving, reliable hands. We’ll be back!! Highly recommend!”
“Annalisa took such great care of my dog, Rukia, over the weekend! She was attentive, communicative, and made sure Rukia was comfortable and well cared for the entire time. I really appreciated the updates, and to top it off, she even gave Rukia a bath before pickup. Rukia came home happy, clean, and clearly well loved. I would absolutely trust Annalisa to watch her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet care!”
“Zero complaints. Went out of town for thanksgiving and she was amazing with our puppy. Gave me updates, bathed him before we picked him up. Highly recommend!”

“Nichole took such good care of our dog, Juniper! She was so well cared for and enjoyed playing with Nichole's dog. Nichole sent lots of pictures and updates and even went as far as to clean her ears when she saw they were irritated. We could not recommend her more!”
About: I’ve been caring for my own dog, Layla, since she was 3 months old and she’s now 9 years old. Being a dog dad has taught me patience, consistency, and how important routines, attention, and trust are for pets. I understand that every dog has their own personality and comfort level, and I care for each pet like they’re part of the family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or keeping up with routines, my goal is always to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because caring for our own dog has already been part of our lifestyle for years. I work outside the home but have flexibility to take breaks and come home throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins. I understand every pet has their own routine and energy level, and I do my best to keep them comfortable, active, and cared for while you’re away. Creating a safe, comfortable, and trustworthy environment is very important to us. I've had my dog Layla since she was 3 months old and she’s now 9, so I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone who treats them like family. I follow each pet parent’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, routines, medications (if applicable), and preferred care styles. I offer boarding in our spacious two-bedroom apartment with access to nice grassy areas nearby for walks, potty breaks, and outdoor time. Small dogs are welcome on the furniture if that’s part of their normal routine and helps them feel more comfortable and at home. I also have our friendly dog Layla, who is already used to sharing her space and being around other pets, helping create a welcoming and pet-friendly environment. Our goal is to make every fur baby feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away.
“Denae & Mark provided a second home for my dog, who emerged from their care happier and healthier than when he started. They stayed in regular contact to ease my mind, and I highly trust their capabilities in caring for canines.”
“Raisa took wonderful care of our dog, Bonita! We could tell Bonita had a fun and comfortable stay, and she almost did not want to leave. Raisa went above and beyond by giving Bonita extra home-cooked dog food and comforting her during loud noises and thunderstorms. Bonita also loved spending time with her daughter and husband too. We are so thankful for the love and care Raisa and her family gave Bonita. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!”
“I was nervous leaving my furry baby the first time with Alexis but I had no reason to worry. Alexis was great with her and provided me with regular updates. I would recommend and use Alexis again in the future.”
“Crystal was awesome! She sent 2 to 3 updates a day on my dog. She also took great care of him, walking him and even giving him his meds. You could tell he was comfortable! We will definitely use Crystal again in the future!”
About: Dogs have been a part of my family since childhood. My sweet dog, June, passed at the age of 15 last year. I have a loving home, great yard, and daily walks to share! I have experience with small to large dogs, including rescues and puppies. I work from home several days a week, and have open weekend availability to give your pet love and support while you are away. I walk everyday, even when not hosting a pet. My home is accustomed to the routine and flow of having a dog in the family, so your pet will be loved and cared for like family while you are away! I have a large yard, with very quiet neighbors around me. It’s a very peaceful, open place for animals. My previous dog loved chasing the squirrels and groundhogs! It has never been fenced because I preferred to be outside when the dog was outside, and walks are my preference. Your dog will be leashed and accompanied for safety and support, whenever I venture outside. I can crate your pet if that provides security. I have a comfy, quiet home with a large front window for watching neighbors go by, if your pet loves to lay and watch the street.
“Rusty was clearly very happy when my husband and I picked him up, we could see in his eyes that he had a great calm time around sierra and her husband. We would definitely consider doggy sitting with them again 🥰”
