“Janet is the best sitter ever! She loves my little diva and treats her like her own fur-baby. She is so sweet and kind, so caring and truly enjoys what she does. I will 100% use Janet whenever I'm out of town, because I know my little doggie will be well-cared for, and let's just say it, truly spoilt - which I love! Janet is the best!”
“Kelly is the absolute best! Ellie had a wonderful time on her return to “camp” with Kelly. Ellie got to go on many walks to explore Kelly’s beautiful property! We received the cutest pictures each day, along with an update on how Ellie was doing. Kelly gave our girl lots of snuggles and attention, just like she’s gets at home. Ellie was so happy when we picked her up and I’m sure she can’t wait to go back! Kelly is truly all you could dream of and more in a dog sitter.”
“Ollie loved hanging out with Jennifer! Every picture she sent, he just looks so happy! Ollie enjoyed having other friends a lovely neighborhood to explore. Thank you, Jennifer, Charlie, and Parker!”
“Max LOVES being with Bryan and always makes new doggie friends. Also Bryan shares any new behaviors with us, which is very important since Max is relatively new to the family. It takes a village!! We are so glad Bryan and Jenn are a part of Max’s village!”
“Lauren did a great job caring for my dog Stella! She was able to accommodate a last minute boarding request and sent daily pictures/updates. Stella came home happy and well taken care of.”
“Tara took good care of my dog. She stayed in touch with me while I was away letting me know everything is going well She also sent me a picture showing me how she is setting in. Tara is very responsive to my texts. I love that. I will definitely use her services again.”
“Adalia is fantastic. She made me feel very comfortable leaving Luxe with her for the week. She kept me updated and Luxe came home her same happy self. Will def use her again.”
“Amanda was a godsend for boarding our three dogs while we were away for five days. We were anxious since it was our dogs’ first time being boarded. The pups didn’t exactly make a great first impression—let’s just say they had some settling in missteps in the first 10 minutes that had us cringing. But Amanda was amazing, brushing it off with a smile and total confidence. She knows her stuff, having worked with veterinary’s practice, and made us feel quite comfortable leaving our pups with her. She sent us daily texts and pics, which was a relief. The dogs clearly loved her, and by the time we picked them up, they were chill, happy, and obviously well-fed and exercised. We’re already looking forward to booking Amanda again.”
“Angi took such wonderful care of our 4 month old puppy while we were away. She sent daily updates and was fantastic while dealing with a very energetic pup. We could not have asked for a better setup, and we will absolutely be using Angi in the future!”
“Amanda was sweet enough to board our 9 week old puppy for a long weekend. Our puppy was well taken care of, spoiled with lots of play time and walks. Amanda sent me lots of pictures and was easy to communicate with. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Lil bear loves going there. I never have to worry about him when I drop him off. We use them for overnight boarding and doggy daycare. I highly recommend them.”
“Jessica and Matthew were so great with our dog!! We got photos and videos of him having the best time with them. He even got a bath He was so happy and we loved that he was having as great a vacation as we were. Highly recommend!”
“Caitlin and her family watched our two miniature poodles for 8 days. She consistently sent us pictures of them so we could see how they were doing. When we picked up the dogs, they were not excited to leave. Her children were adorable and really bonded with our dogs. I will definitely be using her again.”
“We are so grateful to Maxine! She took care of our pup on short notice when we had an emergency. Archie had a great time and we were relieved he was taken care of while we were away.”
About: For any and all services I provide I will be seeking guidance from the pet owner for preferred handling as people treat their pets differently (allowed on furniture, leash vs off leash, feeding times, etc.) Most of my pet sitting experience has been at their home and i have cared for up to four dogs and two cats (plus chickens and fish). I have also babysat for a cat and a few different dogs at my place. I enjoy an active lifestyle and live near state lands so lots of hiking is usually on the agenda (for dogs anyway). I recently put down my aging cat and have found life is lonely without him, but I am not ready to replace him just yet. Rover seems like a great way to get my fix and earn some extra money along the way. I work full time Monday through Friday and have hour long lunch breaks if midday breaks are needed for your pets. Weekends are for serious play! I live on a low traffic road near a state forest. Access to trails from my back door and a large (unfenced) yard to roam. When staying in someone’s home I treat it like my own with care.
“i’m pretty sure my dog was upset that i was taking her away from Beth’s retreat when i came to pick her up lol Beth was very thorough during our meet n greet. you could tell that caring for our pup the way we do was super important to her which we loved. she was very communicative and attentive to Cookie’s needs. she sent pictures and video’s throughout. we will definitely be booking with her the next time we’re in need!”

“Kayla was excellent! She was a great pet sitter for my cat. She communicated with me through out the weekend when I was away and I felt so comfortable leaving my cat under her care! Would recommend her services to a friend”
About: I’ve pet sat for family members but I’ve also and still currently pet sit for previous teachers. I’ve done an internship at a vet clinic. I completed boces which made me a certified veterinary assistant. I worked at the SPCA while finishing up college. Volunteered at Tanglewood Nature Center. Depending on my work schedule I spend as much time as possible outside of work with your pets. I don’t leave them alone for long at all. I’m easy going, my dog gets crated when I’m not home. I will make sure nothing is sitting out that could potentially harm an animal
“Valkyrie enjoyed her time, Mika didn't have to take the garbage of cat litter out to the trashcan and she went above and beyond. Will be using her again when I go out of town for long times!!”
“Gretchen was great with my girls! She was on time for her drop-ins and stayed to play with them the whole time. She did a meeting with me to meet the girls before she came to watch them which was great! She strove to understand what I needed from her and what the girls needed with their behavioral issues! Very professional and kind!”
“I never worried for a second about Zelda and Luka. Adalia was great with communication about the visits and the dog's activities. Great job and I will have her watch the dogs again!”
“Cassandra did an amazing job taking care of my 3 cats. She was very quick to respond if i had any question or concerns and showed real genuine care for my animals. She was my first sitter on Rover so i was kind of nervous about the whole process but she really made everything very easy and i was able to focus on my vacation and what i needed to get done.”
“Staci took very good care of my two cats. We had her do two visits a day and she was very prompt and you could almost set your watch by her. She followed the feed and care instructions to the letter and even went above and beyond to make sure Oliver, who has CKD, was comfortable. I would recommend Staci if you're looking for a good reliable pet sitter.”
About: I have been a cat owner my whole life (57 years) and currently have 3 rescued cats, but I also care for my daughter's 2 rescued cats when she goes out of town. I love cats and would love to care for your cat when you are away as I understand how hard it is to leave your pets. I always want my cats to feel cared for even when I am away and would love to do that for other cat owners.
About: With over 20 years of personal experience caring for my own cat, I understand just how important it is to have someone dependable and attentive looking after your feline family member. Cats thrive on routine, patience, and gentle care — and that’s exactly what I provide. I offer reliable drop-in visits that include feeding, refreshing water, scooping and cleaning litter boxes, and giving your cat the attention they’re comfortable with — whether that’s playtime, quiet companionship, or simply respectful space. I’m attentive to details and happy to follow specific instructions to keep your cat’s routine consistent and stress-free. You can expect timely visits, clear communication, and updates so you feel confident your cat is safe and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every cat with the same kindness and respect I gave my own for 20 wonderful years.
About: I have always gone to great lengths to ensure that my cats have the best life possible. From cleaning their litter boxes twice a day, to making sure they are receiving healthy stimulation throughout the day. I plan to do the same with any feline friend that I am fortunate enough to spend time with.
About: I grew up on a farm and have been around all sorts of animals. I have experience with all types of dogs, from Great Danes to Chihuahuas. Neighbors, friends, and family have previously relied on me to house sit and care for their pet(s) while they’re away. I’m currently working part time, so I have lots of free time to care for your pet(s). Even on days I work, I can do potty breaks before and after. I rely on what the client tells/gives me. I like to keep animals in their own home so they can feel comfortable and not anxious with another person and at another home. It’s good to keep one of those neutral.

“If there was >5 stars, this would be a time to use it! From the very beginning Janet was an absolute sweetheart, meeting me on the porch to grab my little guy, asking pertinent questions to be sure she was doing the best for him and even putting up low wires in her house to keep him from chewing them (puppy) Dash took to her immediately, tail wagging and kisses like she was an old friend of his, since dogs are a good judge of character, I just knew this was going to be a great day for him. From picture updates, to her summarizing their daily activities for me, I was totally at ease and had a happy heart with my decision to reach out to Janet to keep Dash for the day. She is simply the best!”
About: I've loved caring for pets for family and friends over the years. Moved away from home so looking to keep that same experience around here. I'm generally off on Sundays and Mondays for work, and live close enough for potty breaks and I make my own schedule if enough notice is given. I have a fenced in yard which has been home to dogs the size of a Great Pyrenees down to a Yorkshire Terrier before. The home is large enough for multiple pets to have their space.
About: I've always had dogs & cats growing up. Recently, my husband & I rescued a puppy from North Carolina, named Mack. He is the light of our life. I love to be around dogs, and want to ensure they get the best care, whether that be walking or playing ball/fetch, or just snuggles. My goal of Rover is to be the home away from home for your fur babies. I want to ensure that you know/are reassured your fur babies are well loved, cared for, and looked after. I want to ensure that we form relationships, so that you have peace of mind I currently work full time about 20 minutes from my home, which allows me a greater radius to care for your loved one. I work M-F 8am-4pm (roughly), so I am available for any after work or weekend assistance. I have a fully fenced in yard for my dog to play in. We play ball multiple times throughout the day. He is up to date on his vaccines, and we ensure that he receives any care he might need. I am trained to notice any significant behaviors or concerns, and will address this ASAP.
“Molly immediately connected with Jessica and Matthew at the Meet and Greet. They sent pictures every day and Molly had a great time during Doggie Daycare! No worries with them. I will definitely use their services again.”
About: I actively foster dogs/puppies on a consistent basis for several years. I've worked with the same Animal Rescue for a long period of time and have experience with many different situations. With the Rescue I regularly handle different scenarios and medical needs, from new born pups to seniors! I'm comfortable with all shapes, sizes, and medical history. Most temperaments I have lots of experience with as well. I work from home full-time. I'm home all day every day Monday-Friday. My weekends only consist of a few errands making me gone for no longer than 4-5 hours at a time. I have a 7ft tall, fully fenced, back yard. I can kennel a dog if needed, but generally they would be out hanging with me. No dog will be left unattended, inside or outside, for long periods of time. I have two adult dogs in the home that can be introduced or remain separate if needed. I also have a 6yr old in the home that loves and is respectful of all animals.
“Cannot say enough good things about Jennifer! Needed last minute doggy daycare for my boy. Text her the morning of. She was quick to respond. I felt at ease as soon as I pulled in. I knew he would have a good time and he did! Picking up was also flexible. So thankful for Jennifer today!”
About: Experienced in overnight and back-and-forth pet sitting. Can care for puppies to seniors at any hour of the day and night. I am not grossed out by any mess your pet may make and will keep the space clean. Normally work 7-noon 3 days a week. My job is very flexible and could change to suite you and your pets needs! I am very quick with responding if you would need me last minute. My pets that I've had in my home get fed at the same time every day. They are also allowed to go out when they want and get their paws cleaned when they come in. Water is always available to them. You can expect me to do the same with your animals unless told other instructions.
“Jessica and her family did a great job with Max. She took time to introduce Max to her dogs and get him comfortable with them. Max was happy and healthy each day when I came to pick him up. Her young son liked taking care of Max too. I’m grateful for the care they gave Max”
“My dog had a fabulous time at daycare with Mikia, her daughter and her dog Zara. I received some great photos (including some funny ones of the dogs wrestling) and felt comfortable knowing the dog was having a good time, socializing and burning off her adolescent energy while I was at work. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi, I’m Katie, and I’ve been taking care of dogs my whole life. My family has 6 dogs total, from a Chihuahua to Pit Bulls, so I’m quite familiar with taking care of different sizes, ages, and breeds. I also have experience taking care of senior dogs with special needs, as I used to own a blind and deaf dog. I’m happy to pet sit overnight or just take your dog on a walk! I’m definitely a homebody, so your pet can have my undivided attention. It would genuinely make me so happy to take care of your dog, please feel free to reach out! I’m currently working part-time and taking classes remotely, so I’m almost always home. My work days are on the weekends, but on weekdays I am completely free! While I work weekends, I work close enough to home to be able to check-in during my breaks. I do not have any pets at home, so any pets can expect my undivided attention. I do not have a yard, but I am happy to take dogs for long walks around campus!
About: I have a small dog, an indoor piggy, and a caged bird. I have grown up with pets, and always make sure they are properly taken care of. I love all animals, and strive to provide them the best stay possible. I am currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to spend with the fur babies! I enjoy walking in the morning and evening, and if your pup enjoys that they can tag along! The animals will be taken care of just as my own. My dog is spoiled, and loves to snuggle. She’s is not aggressive towards other dogs, she just prefers humans. The animals are allowed on furniture and allowed to sleep in bed with Charlie and myself; as my home is their home for the duration of their stay!
“Thank you so much to Shanea and family for caring for our Boy during a busy trip, and being so lovely and patient with a rapidly changing schedule. We would definitely book Shanea again anytime we are in town!”
About: Aside from my own pets over the years, I’ve also provided care and comfort to pets of family and friends. Whether in my home or yours, I will treat your pets as if they were my own. I know how hard it is to find a safe place for our fur babies when we have to travel. Our pittie mutt, Hank, can’t wait to meet your pups! I recently retired after 36 years of teaching and have lots of free time to care for your fur babies. We have a large fenced in deck (and pool for our swimmers). Our 12 acres are not fenced but are cleared for easy walks, on or off lead as desired. Our home sits well off the main road. We’re not opposed to taking pups for rides in our side by side. House trained dogs have freedom in our home. We’re suckers who allow pets on furniture and provide all the love and cuddles needed to make them comfortable. We have plenty of room for crates if your pup is more comfortable in one. In your home, I will follow your house rules. Depending on location, I can come and visit or stay overnight. I can bring mail and packages in for you and take care of your plants. 🪴
“My yellow lab, Sandy, had a wonderful day with Claudia! Claudia was very responsive and engaging, fun, and bubbly. Since she was going to be taking care of another dog on the same day that I booked Sandy's stay, Claudia suggested that we meet both her and Bella (cutest pug ever!) ahead of time to see how the two dogs would get along. It was so nice to be able to do that so that it was easy for me to just drop Sandy off on her booked day without a worry. Claudia sent me fun videos and pictures throughout the day, which was fantastic. Sandy loved her! I will definitely book Claudia again whenever I am in Ithaca! She was fabulous!!”
About: I've cared for dogs of different sizes over the years and I love to cuddle, walk, and pamper pups. We have a fenced in back yard and I like to take long walks with dogs if they're up for it. We have a 4 year old boxer/hound mix who is sweet with people but not great with other dogs. We keep him away from guest dogs, there's lots of room in the house for each dog to have their own space and still get lots of love from me and the family. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I take breaks through the day to care for puppies, whether that's a quick potty break, fun walk, or play time with balls and toys. When boarding, I make sure pups get any meds they need, plenty of time outside, and snuggles on the couch (if they're the snuggling type). I know some dogs need longer or shorter walks, and I make adjustments based on what they need.
About: Taking care of pets has always been part of my life. I have a fenced in yard for dogs to run and play. As for walks, I have to active kids who are always willing to take a walk around. I currently work at the local school just minutes from my home. I come home middle of the day. I am home during the summer and on weekends. I have a fenced in yard and one dog who is a big baby. Dogs are allowed to lay wherever they are comfortable but can also crate if they are used to that.

“Kelli took great care of my pups! She really cares about what they like and what you might be working on with them. She definitely was a big help to me and with text and picture updates my mind was at ease!”
About: I specialize in caring for small/medium breed dogs in a peaceful, country home just five minutes outside of Ithaca. With experience ranging from young dogs to seniors, I provide a calm, structured environment where your pet can feel safe and at ease. What sets me apart is my exclusive focus on smaller breeds.

My flexible schedule allows me to take regular breaks for walks, playtime, and one-on-one attention—ensuring your small dog is never left alone for long stretches and always feels cared for.

With a large yard and the companionship of my own two playful dogs—a Chihuahua mix and a Pomeranian —your pet will enjoy playtime, walks, and personalized care.

“Angela was totally amazing. This was my first time trusting anyone other than family with my babies and Angela made it so easy. She communicated with me daily sending pictures and updates and my dogs loved her. I will definitely be asking her to come again in the future.”
About: I have been house sitting/pet sitting since I was 14 years old. I am very reliable and have a flexible working schedule aside from Rover. Pet sitting from me will encourage your animals to still feel loved when you can't be there and decrease their loneliness when you are away. I will make sure your animals are in the absolute best care :) I currently work part time and am blessed to make my own schedule. I am available most weekdays, weekends, and most holidays. Saturdays I am unavailable for the entire day but can still check in with your pets in the morning and evening! I also make my schedule for my other job two weeks in advance and can work around your schedule to the best of my ability. I currently have my own dog and two cats and would love your animals (almost) as much as mine. I understand some pets may have special needs and I am willing to offer this as well as understanding some animals need more love than others and that is no problem. I can feed, water, walk, play, administer medication, love on your animals, etc.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life. I have helped take care of my friends and family’s pets for years. Now that I’m an empty nester I thought taking care of your fur babies would be a great way to fill my new found extra time and make some extra $ to help my college kids. I am self employed and have a flexible schedule, so that I am able to make sure your fur babies are properly taken care of. I will walk, feed, and play with your fur babies as per your request to make sure they feel safe and loved in your absence.
About: I’ve pet sat for family members but I’ve also and still currently pet sit for previous teachers. I’ve done an internship at a vet clinic.

Depending on my work schedule I spend as much time as possible outside of work with your pets. I don’t leave them alone for long at all. I’m easy going, my dog gets crated when I’m not home.

“McKayla is a dog whisperer. My dog can be fearful and reactive of strangers and she took to McKayla right away. She walked my dog several times while I was on a 2 week trip, and I felt so comfortable knowing my quirky pup was in good hands. You can tell she has a lot of experience with dogs who have special considerations. So happy I found her as a walker! Highly recommend her.”
About: I am a very reliable, loving and responsible person who you can trust with your four legged family members. Both my dogs are over the rainbow bridge now but we had a long loving journey together. One was a Lab mix and the other was a Husky rhodesian ridgeback mix. I know the importance of mental stimulation, exercise and rewards that all dogs love. I have grown up around a variety of different animals and also like to volunteer with local non-profit animal rescues. I have experience working with dogs who suffer from anxiety, aggression and/or have a lot of energy. My schedule is flexible in both days and time. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. Thank you for your time and stopping by to view my profile. -Gillian S I have the availability and flexibility to be with your dog as much as needed. I work from home allowing my schedule to be flexible and your dog to be with a human 24/7 if needed. I would typically take my dogs to run errands and pick up and drop off the kids to school. If your dog likes car rides and you are comfortable with that they are welcome to always tag along. If they do not like car rides they can be crated or left out in the home. I always use leashes for walks as we do not have a fenced in yard. I do have crates if your dog needs that for any time away or feeling comfortable (depending on how you work with your dog).
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 5+ years of experience pet and house sitting for friends and family. I’ve cared for everything from large, energetic dogs to laid back cats. I currently share my home with two pups (a Shepherd/Lab and a Beagle/Husky mix) and four cats, so I’m no stranger to managing different personalities and needs. I'm also comfortable caring for reptiles, rodents, and fish (within reason) I’m a recent college graduate with my own reliable transportation and a flexible schedule. While I do navigate some chronic health issues, I’m committed to providing attentive, compassionate care. I especially enjoy creating DIY toys and enrichment activities to keep pets mentally stimulated and happy while you're away. Whether you're looking for drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care, I’d love to help your pets feel safe, loved, and at ease in their own home! My current schedule is very flexible, as I spend most of my day tending to my health and home. I typically have semi-frequent doctor appointments, but they are planned well in advance, which allows me to coordinate our schedules easily I prefer to care for your fur babies in their own home. I can provide drop-in visits or overnight care. I am a laid-back person and will provide lots of love and attention during visits.

“Cate did a great job helping take care of my pup while I was out of town. She was on time for my dogs walks, and I always got pics and a written description of what happened on the walk which was very reassuring. I will definitely continue using Cate for dog walking!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all age and sizes since I was a child. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to do anything their pet needs while they’re away. In the future I’m looking to take a dog training course and slow transition into that as a full time job. Every morning I wake up and immediately tend to the dogs and let them outside to use the bathroom and play around, then we come Inside to eat breakfast to start the day. We go outside about 3x daily to potty and play. I have a big privacy fenced in yard for play time. I have 4 dogs of my own. However I typically do not let them converse with my boarding dogs unless known that they are friendly.
About: Hello, I’m Abigail. I have had all types of animals my whole life and have had experience working at pet stores and doggie day cares. I strive to keep all animals happy, healthy, and safe at all times! I am home full time, so my schedule is pretty flexible. My home is welcome to all breeds, and if your pup has special needs that is no issue! I have a child, a three legged pup, and a scaredy cat that are all very well socialized with other animals! If need be I can watch almost any other kind of animal you may have. If you have any questions at all, please feel free to contact me! I hope to meet your pups soon! Thank you.
About: We live on 4.25 acres. We do have a large back deck that is attached to the house. Our dogs love going on the the deck to sit and bath in the sun. I have had all kinds of pets since I was a little girl. I am 34 years old that is wanting to do something that I love. I am married of 13 years, we have a 15 year old son, and have 3 pomeranian/papillon. We are very pet friendly. The dogs are free to roam as they please. We have potty trained our 3 dogs. We let our dogs on the furniture and through out our house, we believe in on open environment. Our dogs go outside as often as they like, we do not have a doggy door, but I do take them out every few hours when I am home. The dogs always have food and water that are out all the time. I drive a Chevy Traverse, for when I need to either pick dogs up from their home's or for when we leave the dogs have somewhere to sit. My services are great, because here in our house we love animals of all shapes and sizes. I take pride in taking care of our animals and yours as well. I own my own cleaning company and my husband works part time. Don't worry taking care of your fur babies will not get in the way of our schedules. Our back deck is fenced in on the top including a gate for the stairs. We do let the dogs outside as often as they like (typically every few hours.) Our dogs roam the house as they please and they always have food and water out.
About: I always loved having pets growing up. I grew up in the country so we had a lot of space for animals to be able to run around and be outside. Dogs, cats, birds...practically every creature you can imagine. Currently I have a cat of my own, and a friend’s dog who I watch fairly regularly. It works out well because I’m a very active person who likes to get outside as much as possible—hiking when the weather permits and bringing him along with me. This is in part due to my ever-changing, flexible schedule. I have a few set shifts during the week, but for the most part I make my own hours and I have time to be available pretty much whenever I am needed!
About: I have always had dogs in my life and understand the responsibility of taking care of them. I am currently enrolled in a veterinary technology program and have experience with taking care of rescue dogs, having to walk, feed, and play with them three times a day. I have also cared for others pet for weeks to months at a time. I currently have two dogs of my own and understand that it is concerning being away from them at times, and would want the upmost care for them. While you’re away from home, I will be there to make sure that your dogs are well taken care of. I will make sure that your dogs are happy, healthy, and as active as is needed

“Kelly is the absolute best! Ellie had a wonderful time on her return to “camp” with Kelly. Ellie got to go on many walks to explore Kelly’s beautiful property! We received the cutest pictures each day, along with an update on how Ellie was doing. Kelly gave our girl lots of snuggles and attention, just like she’s gets at home. Ellie was so happy when we picked her up and I’m sure she can’t wait to go back! Kelly is truly all you could dream of and more in a dog sitter.”
“Ollie loved hanging out with Jennifer! Every picture she sent, he just looks so happy! Ollie enjoyed having other friends a lovely neighborhood to explore. Thank you, Jennifer, Charlie, and Parker!”
“Max LOVES being with Bryan and always makes new doggie friends. Also Bryan shares any new behaviors with us, which is very important since Max is relatively new to the family. It takes a village!! We are so glad Bryan and Jenn are a part of Max’s village!”
“Lauren did a great job caring for my dog Stella! She was able to accommodate a last minute boarding request and sent daily pictures/updates. Stella came home happy and well taken care of.”
“Tara took good care of my dog. She stayed in touch with me while I was away letting me know everything is going well She also sent me a picture showing me how she is setting in. Tara is very responsive to my texts. I love that. I will definitely use her services again.”
“Adalia is fantastic. She made me feel very comfortable leaving Luxe with her for the week. She kept me updated and Luxe came home her same happy self. Will def use her again.”
“Amanda was a godsend for boarding our three dogs while we were away for five days. We were anxious since it was our dogs’ first time being boarded. The pups didn’t exactly make a great first impression—let’s just say they had some settling in missteps in the first 10 minutes that had us cringing. But Amanda was amazing, brushing it off with a smile and total confidence. She knows her stuff, having worked with veterinary’s practice, and made us feel quite comfortable leaving our pups with her. She sent us daily texts and pics, which was a relief. The dogs clearly loved her, and by the time we picked them up, they were chill, happy, and obviously well-fed and exercised. We’re already looking forward to booking Amanda again.”
“Angi took such wonderful care of our 4 month old puppy while we were away. She sent daily updates and was fantastic while dealing with a very energetic pup. We could not have asked for a better setup, and we will absolutely be using Angi in the future!”
“Amanda was sweet enough to board our 9 week old puppy for a long weekend. Our puppy was well taken care of, spoiled with lots of play time and walks. Amanda sent me lots of pictures and was easy to communicate with. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Jessica and Matthew were so great with our dog!! We got photos and videos of him having the best time with them. He even got a bath He was so happy and we loved that he was having as great a vacation as we were. Highly recommend!”
“Caitlin and her family watched our two miniature poodles for 8 days. She consistently sent us pictures of them so we could see how they were doing. When we picked up the dogs, they were not excited to leave. Her children were adorable and really bonded with our dogs. I will definitely be using her again.”
“We are so grateful to Maxine! She took care of our pup on short notice when we had an emergency. Archie had a great time and we were relieved he was taken care of while we were away.”
About: For any and all services I provide I will be seeking guidance from the pet owner for preferred handling as people treat their pets differently (allowed on furniture, leash vs off leash, feeding times, etc.) Most of my pet sitting experience has been at their home and i have cared for up to four dogs and two cats (plus chickens and fish). I have also babysat for a cat and a few different dogs at my place. I enjoy an active lifestyle and live near state lands so lots of hiking is usually on the agenda (for dogs anyway). I recently put down my aging cat and have found life is lonely without him, but I am not ready to replace him just yet. Rover seems like a great way to get my fix and earn some extra money along the way. I work full time Monday through Friday and have hour long lunch breaks if midday breaks are needed for your pets. Weekends are for serious play! I live on a low traffic road near a state forest. Access to trails from my back door and a large (unfenced) yard to roam. When staying in someone’s home I treat it like my own with care.
“i’m pretty sure my dog was upset that i was taking her away from Beth’s retreat when i came to pick her up lol Beth was very thorough during our meet n greet. you could tell that caring for our pup the way we do was super important to her which we loved. she was very communicative and attentive to Cookie’s needs. she sent pictures and video’s throughout. we will definitely be booking with her the next time we’re in need!”
“Tucker was very happy with Bill &Emma . Wasn't to excited to see me when I picked him up . They sent lots of videos and pics of Tucker's stay with them. Will definitely use them again ,very pleased with the care they gave Tucker.”
“Thank you Ray! Pepper had a great time! It was nice to get photos and videos of you all out and about while we were away. Will definitely call you again when we need a safe fun place for Pepper and Oona when we travel again!”
