“Mike and Amy are the best. Tonight when they dropped Buddie off, Buddie did not just fly out of the car to greet me. I had to go around to the open door and watch him wagging his tail like crazy in the back of their car and for a moment, I believe he was conflicted because he loves Mike and Amy & Bear so much that he didn't want to choose! It was sweet and made me happy that boarding him didn't seem to work out because Mike, Amy and Bear give him nonstop attention and love that no boarding place could. 💙”
“Megan was great. She took tons of pictures which we appreciated. She updates us at least everyday sometime twice a day so we felt secure that our pups were happy and safe. We've been looking for a sitter we can depend on and I think we've found her. Thanks so much Megan!”
“My dog Asher was treated like a family member, not a guest. I was absolutely thrilled as was Asher.. Cansu and Brett took him in like their own. Tons of photos and videos every day.”
“I can't say enough about Gillian and Mitch. Left my puppy fur almost a week during a move. She had so much fun with new friends and was so well taken care of . If you need someone please use Gillian and Mitch!”
“Natthinee B is definitely a 5 star. This was my first time leaving my fur brother with anyone while we went away. We received updates twice a day along with beautiful pics. The meet & greet was very good!….. I knew from then it was going to be a lovely experience for my fur brother. Thank you, Natthinee for making fun and feeling like a home for my Frisco.🧡🦋…. Props to your husband as well!🧡”
“My dogs came back happy, healthy and tired which is all I can ask for regarding their stay. I have a 13 year old dog that can end up overdoing it but no limping at all. Jen was responsive and I felt comfortable leaving Moana and Whiskey in her care while I was in Florida. I wish I had found her sooner. Definitely will be coming back.”
“Mery and Brad looked after my greyhound Nadia for a few nights and they did a marvelous job! Setting up Nadia's stay was very easy and my messages were replied to promptly. I was also kept updated throughout her stay. Nadia was obviously happy and well looked after when I went to pick her up; I would definitely recommend Mery and Brad to anyone looking for caring and wonderful dog sitters!”
“Samantha and her partner Zachary took fabulous care of our two dogs for three days. They are both high energy young dogs, one 7 months and one 13 months old and we were worried that they were going to be a problem. They love each other, romping like crazy with each other indoors and out and Samantha and Zach had no problem dealing with them. When we went to pick them up, it was obvious that both dogs really liked their caregivers. What more can one hope for in someone taking care of their dogs? We will be using them again when we are back in the Albany area. Thank you, Samantha and Zachary! Clifford and Ann Wagner”
“Paige seemed right at home when I arrived. Glad to see me, but in no rush to leave. Jonathan was very attentive to her and it is apparent he has a natural ability with dogs.”
“David was incredibly responsive, kind and easy to work with! He took on my elderly 16 year old pup within a 24 hour notice after we found out our Airbnb didn’t allow dogs :( He took great care of her and sent daily updates which we really appreciated! She felt right at home with him and he made us feel very comforted knowing she was in good hands! Will definitely rejoin with him in the future :)”
“Anna was great! We received daily messages and photos of our dog's status. She paid attention to the needs of our dog. He was given a bath and had his nails trimmed, which was the best!! We even received a report card on pick up! Anna did a great job and we will definitely be using her again!”
“Maegan was flexible with our appointment. We had an important meeting on Monday and she canceled Monday. Abby had a good time. She came home and was calmer than she has ever been.”
“This was our first time using this type of service versus a boarding facility and I wish I had known about Rover in the past. After reading reviews on so many we decided to board with Tiffany and we are so glad we did. It was a nice feeling while away, we knew our two dogs were safe, were not locked in kennels and were able to run around and play with her dogs like they were part of the family. Being in a home setting versus a kennel, I'm sure was much less stressful on them as well. Many times at boarding facilities there is constant barking and chaos, so a home setting is the way to go. I'm also sure our boys received some one on one attention and petting from Tiffany and not for an extra fee like the facilities charge. As long as Tiffany will have them back, her home is the only place I will take them when we travel.”
“Ginger was wonderful. She took our 5 month old puppy for 3 nights. She provided plenty of updates and pictures. We felt very comfortable leaving our puppy with her. I’m thankful we found her through this app.”
“Mikayla was amazing with our boy Kane! We felt comfortable and confident that he was in the best of hands not only with Mikayla, but her pups as well. we loved getting our updates and photos of our sweet boy while we were on vacation. Thank you for giving us peace of mind while we were away! It means the world.”
“This is our 3rd or 4th time booking with John and he never disappoints! He is always such a pleasure and was even able to help us out last minute AND over a holiday weekend! He takes such great care of our elderly dog who usually doesn’t do well in new environments. We are so thankful to have found John :)”
“This lady and her husband are the best kept secret of Rover! My dog has typically refused to eat for the first day or two of boarding, but with Sue, she ate the first night, her tail was high and wagging! She was a happy little camper. I would recommend Sue, without any reservations. She truly cares for her boarded dogs- they do know who loves them. She will always be our first choice!!”
“Jenny was a superb sitter. My dog Loui’ clearly had a great time with her. She kept me updated the entire time with pictures and videos. I would definitely refer my friends and other pet owners that are seeking a great sitter to jenny. She was very patient with me and was very flexible with her time. I will be using jenny as his primary sitter going forward. ??”
“We are so glad we found Marina! We decided to try Rover last minute to board our dogs before a trip and her profile immediately stuck out. She was professional, gave our dogs great care and kept us updated throughout. We were able to really enjoy our time away without having to worry about how our dogs were doing. We would use her again and again to watch them! She also gracefully dealt with our very active puppy who presents her own set of challenges! She was very knowledgeable and easy to work with. We really can’t say enough good things! Thanks again Marina!”
“Staying with Lorraine was an absolute blessing for my Penny! Lorraine loves dogs and it shows! Penny got lots of love and attention, and I’ve been getting daily updates, pictures, and videos from Lorraine. Cannot recommend her enough!”

“Lauren did an amazing job with our senior cat. The meet and great went smoothly. Then went above and beyond to take care of our guy while we were gone. To top it off, she came over in a last minute pinch to make sure he got his medications and food. We got frequent updates and wonderful pictures. It was so sweet, she’d sit on the floor next to his heating pad to spend time with him. We are so thankful and lucky she watched our cat.”
“Great job Sabrina! Thanks so much for taking such good care of my girl. It allowed me to relax and enjoy my weekend away to visit my son, daughter -in-law and little grandson. I will definitely book you again in the near future.”
“She did a wonderful job watching my cats! She was reliable, caring, and made sure they were well taken care of while I was away. I really appreciated the updates and felt comfortable knowing they were in good hands. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Joanne was amazing! We have cats that needed to be checked up on while were were on a long vacation. We had never used Rover before but noticed that they have services for cats too. We found Joanne and are so glad we did! She went above and beyond our needs. Our cats got lots of attention each time she came. She made sure their food and litter was topped off and kept the areas so clean. She was great about including lots of info and pictures in the report cards. She even watered our plants! Her sweet kids also came and played with the cats. They were very respectful of the house. It gave us such piece of mind knowing that our animals were looked after so attentively. There is no doubt that we will be hiring her for vacations to come!”
“We went on vacation for 10 days and Adriana came by to care for our cat. She gave her fresh food, water and kept up with the litter box. We received a photo every day, and saw jazzy sitting on Adrianna lap loving the attention. We are very happy that Adriana cared for Jazzy, so we could go away. This is a valuable service, and I would recommend Adriana for pet sitting.”

“Buddie spent the day with Megan, her family and pups and had a full day of playing and attention. He slept all the way home in the car and is out cold. A tired dog is a happy dog. Megan was very flexible and understanding when I was later than I originally planned.”

About: I have 15 years experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, as well as small animals and exotics. I foster dogs for a breed specific rescue, with medical and severe behavioral issues so I’ve seen it all. (Dog and human aggression ect…) If dogs are boarding in my home they must be crate trained and/or fully dog and cat friendly. We can always work something out, message me! I do not board cats but would be happy to stop by and spend some time with them. I’m home full time right now! I may go out for a couple hours for dog walking, but other than that someone is always here. We have a spare room if they need their own space. We have lots of experience fostering and crate/ rotate. We always make sure to spend equal quality time with each dog. If I am caring for your pets at your home I will spend the night there with them.
“Jenny was a superb sitter! My dog clearly had a great time with her. She kept me updated throughout the entire duration of his stay with pictures and videos. I would definitely refer my friends that are pet owners that are seeking a great sitter. She was very patient with my crazy work schedule and very flexible with her availability. Going forward i will be using Jenny as his primary sitter.”
“Exceptional people! They are extremely responsive and were very welcoming. We set up a meet and greet to make sure Sheba would get along with Bear which made me feel comfortable that I was leaving Sheba in good, capable hands. I get several updates throughout the day which is awesome and they are very flexible with times. 10/10 would recommend to a friend or anyone that needs doggy daycare. Thanks for being awesome guys!”

About: I've taken care of dogs since little, my babysitter at the time had two dogs, I helped by feeding them and cuddling with them. I also have a cat that lives at my parent's home. He's been with us for about 5-6 years. I took great care of him! Pet care is something I build into my everyday routine. I love spending time with animals, so walks, feeding, playtime, and giving them attention throughout the day comes naturally to me. I'll make sure pets are comfortable with me and/ the environment, I'll make sure your pets get the attention they need. I'll keep in contact if anything ever comes up.
About: Raised a well trained border collie in high school and recently fostered a puppy that became a service dog through Dogs For Better Lives. We trained it for 14 months to prepare for service training. Typically the professional training takes 4-6 months but our boy graduated in 2.5. I love short, fun training sessions and consistency. I was a solo traveler living the vanlife but am back home helping my folks in Maryland. I love dogs but owning one would radically change my lifestyle. I’m hoping that through Rover I can still have some dog time on the road and take some good boys and girls for adventures outdoors. Primarily I like to do drop-in visit for walks and short training sessions. Once we build a rapport, I’d like to do hikes and overnight adventures.
“Our Marcie came home nice and tired, and didn't seem stressed at all. Mikayla has other pets that are friendly and sociable, so we are of course happy to have our dog have the opportunity to play and socialize with them.”
“So happy to find such a great home for Sunny to visit while we’re gone — and only 11-minutes away. We could tell on our “meet & greet” visit that Sue and her pup & cat would get along well with ours. Sue send pix and a video today, and I could tell Sunny was very happy there. When I picked her up at the end of the day, it was obvious they were all happy together. Looking forward to many more visits and overnights!”
“We are extremely grateful to have found Anna for our puppy. Chloe had an amazing day full of fun away from her family for the first time. We are so blessed to have found Anna and we definitely will be booking her for the future. Not only is it a fun, loving, safe place but also you can tell she is experienced and loves caring for fur pets. She gave us a report at the end, with a goodie bag and some printed pictures from our pup. She went above and beyond! ❤️🐾”
“Gillian and Mitch and their four pups are absolutely amazing. They were so welcoming of Biscuit, who fit right in with the pack and had a blast. Came home completely tired and ready for dinner and sleep! Gillian kept me posted if his activities throughout the day. We will definitely go back to her.”
“Jack has been great with my dog. she goes twice a week for daycare and she is always excited to get there and never wants to leave. Jack has been very flexible and professional!”
“Definitely recommend Natthinee as a dog watcher!! My boyfriend and I left our dog Emma for the day, and she had a blast. Natthinee provided texts and video updates throughout the day. Our energetic dog came back exhausted and happy. We will definitely go back to her in the near future!”
“Sierra took great care of my elderly dog. He was so content when I picked him up that he didn’t want to go home. She kept him separated from the other dogs, but in the same room, so he could see and interact with his new friends without any risk to him physically. My little potato really enjoyed his time there and I’ll be bringing him back!”
“Brad and Mery were wonderful, and took great care of our dog Maisie. I loved getting pictures and updates daily- it made me feel much better being away! I highly recommend, and hope to use them again in the future!”
“Kathy was awesome! Took great care of Bonnie, and sent lots of pictures and updates to keep us posted and reassured that everything was going well. She was positive and friendly with communication and flexible as out time tables adjusted a bit.”
“Tiffany is a wonderful host, and Sunny had a terrific place to stay. A big comfy couch for the pups, a doggy door leading to a big fenced yard, and three very friendly pups of her own. Looking forward to a return trip later when we’ll be gone for a week. And looking forward to checking out the delicious looking cakes, cupcakes, & cake pops she custom makes!”
“Kara is amazing, Coco had a great stay, she sent pictures every day, took amazing care of our little boy, she even gave him a complimentary bath , she over exceeded our expectations ,we came back to a really happy doggo ! Would 100% book back with her,”
“Biscuit had a great first day experience with George. He is a pandemic puppy, and I was very apprehensive as to how he would do with someone who was a stranger to him. George was able to ease him into the stay and kept him engaged the entire time. I was happy to get the photo updates. Biscuit came home happy but tired after the whole day of fun, and went right to bed! It was a great first experience, and we will definitely be using his services again.”

About: I grew up with dogs and cats, so animals have always been a natural part of my life. Whether it's a bouncy puppy who needs extra patience and play, or a houseful of pets with different personalities, I'm completely in my element. I'm experienced handling high-energy dogs and juggling multiple pets at once — keeping everyone happy, safe, and on their routine is something I genuinely enjoy. Pet owners can feel at ease knowing their fur babies are in the hands of someone who treats them like my own. I'm attentive, reliable, and will always keep you updated with photos and check-ins so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing! I'm a teacher so until June 26, I can only do from 3:30 on during the week and then free on weekends. After June 26th I'm only working part time 8-11am Tuesdays and Thursdays so I'm available anytime after that! I am willing to bring pets to my moms if needed. I have an apartment and an animal of my own so my moms would be the better option. She has a quiet/comfortable home and a decent sized yard!
About: Leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, so my goal is to make sure you have complete peace of mind while you’re away. I grew up on a family farm and have been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Spending my childhood caring for animals taught me that every pet has their own personality and deserves individualized attention. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away! I value communication and will update you with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in great hands! I enjoy providing check in’s on kitties and pups, as well as providing plenty of play time. You can rest easy knowing I’ll care for your furbaby as if they’re my own. I just moved from a house to apartment so as of right now I am just boarding kitties due to having a smaller yard. Safety is my priority! My 20 lb shih zhu mix is friendly and adores cats!

I’m currently unemployed so I have plenty of free time to spare for your pets 💕 I am looking for full time so my availability is scheduled to change. I treat every pet like family and always put their safety and comfort first. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel secure and relaxed in my care. I can follow any instructions you provide including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and cuddle time. My goal is to create a stress free, positive experience for your pet while keeping you updated every step of the way.

About: Throughout my life I have taken care of dogs in many different capacities. Today I am currently an owner, foster parent for Petey's Legacy, and lover of all furry friends. I have experience with all ages and breeds and can provide the greatest experience a pup can ask for. I am always available for whatever your friend may need. I am available anytime, day or night to care for your pets. I know pets sometimes cannot wait to get the care they need and I am able to place them first on my list. I currently have two dogs and foster another one. At my home I have land that allows the dogs to move freely while on an extended leash. My foster dog has their own space that is separated from the other two so they can feel comfortable with a place of their own. All dogs receive equal attention and love. If I am caring for your pets at your home I am able to stay overnight if requested.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 10. I currently have an energetic Irish Setter and a bold orange cat, so I’m used to handling high energy pets with big personalities! Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and love on their pets for over a decade. I’m comfortable with senior pets, active pups, and cats that like to roam (or hide!). I’m currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for pets in their own home. I’m available for walks, check-ins, and overnight stays on weekends and most weekdays. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family. I follow your pet’s routine, keep their space tidy, and make sure they feel comfortable and safe while you’re away. I’m experienced with high energy pets and senior animals, and I always prioritize their well being and your peace of mind.
About: I would want my animals to be to be treated with love and compassion when being cared for by others so If you choose me to be your pet sitter your animals will get the same love and compassion in return🥰I am the type of person who will sit on the floor and rub your dogs soar hips for 10 mins. I have cared for a variety of animals such as reptiles , farm animals, even rodents! My love for animals can't be expressed. I have cared for animals of all ages ( puppies/kitten to elderly). Thank you for taking the time to read🥰 I am a stay at home mom and I am available from 7am-3pm on weekdays and on weekends my availability may be more open , it just depends on what I might have going on! I will not be taking care of animals in my home due to be having a 1 year old child unless you are okay with them being in a crate. I would not want anything to happen to my baby or your fur baby!
About: I have been passionate about caring for animals since childhood, with a lifelong commitment to helping pets and stray animals thrive in safe, loving environments. My goal is to ensure the health, happiness, and safety of every animal I encounter, treating them with the same love and care as if they were my own. With years of personal experience, including caring for a senior dog who lived a full 15 years and now rests peacefully, as well as raising my adventurous 4-year-old cat and my energetic 2-year-old dog, I bring dedication and compassion to animal care. Whether providing hands-on assistance or finding homes for animals in need, I am always ready to go above and beyond to keep them out of harm’s way and surrounded by love. Animal care has always been a big part of my life. I grew up around animals, which eventually led me to work in a veterinary clinic where I gained hands-on experience with pet health, behavior, and daily care. I’m no longer employed at the clinic, but the knowledge and skills I gained there still guide the way I care for every pet I work with. My schedule is now fully open, which means I can give your pet the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. Whether your companion needs walks, playtime, medication support, or simply a reliable and comforting presence, I’m committed to providing exceptional care. I treat every animal like my own and make sure you feel confident while you’re away by offering dependable communication and genuine love for your pet. If your pet has specific routines, quirks, or needs, I’m happy to accommodate. I’m excited to meet you and your furry family member! 🐾 I have a medium sized outdoor fenced in area that also is connected to an indoor area to get out of the heat. I also have a dog tie out that goes from the house down our hill.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats! Very familiar with both big and small breeds. We have a 6 year old yellow lab, Bodhi, who is extremely friendly and obedient. We could easily give lots of love and attention to some more animals!! I’m currently a stay-at-home mom to two kids. We’re home a lot, always out in our backyard playing. My weekly routine revolves around them and their school schedules, but for the most part I am at home. I have a large fenced in backyard in a safe neighborhood. We have motion sensor lights and camera in both the front and backyard. We also have baby gates up all around the house with garbages and cabinets all baby proofed as well! Super safe environment, nothing unsafe they can get into. We can crate or just separate and give them their own space with baby gates. We also have a nice cool finished basement that’s set up like a spare bedroom with king size bed and tv if that’s more their style :)
About: Positive reinforcement and teaching go a long way. Where pet love comes alive and the fun doesn’t never ends. Teaching essentials to a successful bond with your pet from the heart. I am currently a full time student with ample free time to care for your fur babies.

“Mike and Amy are the best. Tonight when they dropped Buddie off, Buddie did not just fly out of the car to greet me. I had to go around to the open door and watch him wagging his tail like crazy in the back of their car and for a moment, I believe he was conflicted because he loves Mike and Amy & Bear so much that he didn't want to choose! It was sweet and made me happy that boarding him didn't seem to work out because Mike, Amy and Bear give him nonstop attention and love that no boarding place could. 💙”
“Megan was great. She took tons of pictures which we appreciated. She updates us at least everyday sometime twice a day so we felt secure that our pups were happy and safe. We've been looking for a sitter we can depend on and I think we've found her. Thanks so much Megan!”
“My dog Asher was treated like a family member, not a guest. I was absolutely thrilled as was Asher.. Cansu and Brett took him in like their own. Tons of photos and videos every day.”
“My dogs came back happy, healthy and tired which is all I can ask for regarding their stay. I have a 13 year old dog that can end up overdoing it but no limping at all. Jen was responsive and I felt comfortable leaving Moana and Whiskey in her care while I was in Florida. I wish I had found her sooner. Definitely will be coming back.”
“Mery and Brad looked after my greyhound Nadia for a few nights and they did a marvelous job! Setting up Nadia's stay was very easy and my messages were replied to promptly. I was also kept updated throughout her stay. Nadia was obviously happy and well looked after when I went to pick her up; I would definitely recommend Mery and Brad to anyone looking for caring and wonderful dog sitters!”
“Samantha and her partner Zachary took fabulous care of our two dogs for three days. They are both high energy young dogs, one 7 months and one 13 months old and we were worried that they were going to be a problem. They love each other, romping like crazy with each other indoors and out and Samantha and Zach had no problem dealing with them. When we went to pick them up, it was obvious that both dogs really liked their caregivers. What more can one hope for in someone taking care of their dogs? We will be using them again when we are back in the Albany area. Thank you, Samantha and Zachary! Clifford and Ann Wagner”
“Paige seemed right at home when I arrived. Glad to see me, but in no rush to leave. Jonathan was very attentive to her and it is apparent he has a natural ability with dogs.”
“Anna was great! We received daily messages and photos of our dog's status. She paid attention to the needs of our dog. He was given a bath and had his nails trimmed, which was the best!! We even received a report card on pick up! Anna did a great job and we will definitely be using her again!”
“Maegan was flexible with our appointment. We had an important meeting on Monday and she canceled Monday. Abby had a good time. She came home and was calmer than she has ever been.”
“Ginger was wonderful. She took our 5 month old puppy for 3 nights. She provided plenty of updates and pictures. We felt very comfortable leaving our puppy with her. I’m thankful we found her through this app.”
“Mikayla was amazing with our boy Kane! We felt comfortable and confident that he was in the best of hands not only with Mikayla, but her pups as well. we loved getting our updates and photos of our sweet boy while we were on vacation. Thank you for giving us peace of mind while we were away! It means the world.”
“This is our 3rd or 4th time booking with John and he never disappoints! He is always such a pleasure and was even able to help us out last minute AND over a holiday weekend! He takes such great care of our elderly dog who usually doesn’t do well in new environments. We are so thankful to have found John :)”
“This lady and her husband are the best kept secret of Rover! My dog has typically refused to eat for the first day or two of boarding, but with Sue, she ate the first night, her tail was high and wagging! She was a happy little camper. I would recommend Sue, without any reservations. She truly cares for her boarded dogs- they do know who loves them. She will always be our first choice!!”
“Jenny was a superb sitter. My dog Loui’ clearly had a great time with her. She kept me updated the entire time with pictures and videos. I would definitely refer my friends and other pet owners that are seeking a great sitter to jenny. She was very patient with me and was very flexible with her time. I will be using jenny as his primary sitter going forward. ??”
“We are so glad we found Marina! We decided to try Rover last minute to board our dogs before a trip and her profile immediately stuck out. She was professional, gave our dogs great care and kept us updated throughout. We were able to really enjoy our time away without having to worry about how our dogs were doing. We would use her again and again to watch them! She also gracefully dealt with our very active puppy who presents her own set of challenges! She was very knowledgeable and easy to work with. We really can’t say enough good things! Thanks again Marina!”
“Staying with Lorraine was an absolute blessing for my Penny! Lorraine loves dogs and it shows! Penny got lots of love and attention, and I’ve been getting daily updates, pictures, and videos from Lorraine. Cannot recommend her enough!”

“I had Sophie, a greyhound, for a year and had never left her...she is shy and likes her comfy life e.g. Sleeping on the couch and company. Both of those needs were met. Peg kept me up to date... I loved the pics! So glad I found a home to leave her where she was cared for and loved by a true pet lover! Thanks Peg (and family!).”
“Kara was very thoughtful about caring for our elder dog during her stay. It was a last minute trip for us and she was very thoughtful and accommodating. Our girl Stella is a bit anxious and sensitive and Kara took the best care of her needs. It’s clear she loves dogs and takes great pride in caring for the pets in her home. I would 100% recommend Kara to others looking for a loving home and person. To watch their special family member.”
