“My dog Belle has stayed with Denise for a couple of overnights in the past few months, but this time she stayed with Denise for a week over Thanksgiving. I was traveling out of state but never had to worry that Belle was in good hands. I even got some photo updates. Belle had fun snuggling with the kids and other dogs. I will definitely text Denise next time I need dog care.”
“Judy was phenomenal, we where very hesitant to leave our dog with a stranger for the first time but judy took Yoshi as part of her family, gave us pictures updates on a regular basis where he was looking just like at home. Judy is a fantastic individual.”
“Alba is amazing! She took tender loving care of my poodle Jackson. She took Jackson for long walks and played with him in her yard. She even took special care of him during the Fourth of July fireworks as he was scared and she comforted him. She’s great about sending videos so you can see exactly what your little loved one is doing all day. I highly recommend Alba!!!”
“My dog literally came back home so tired from having fun. He received excellent treatment he had another dog to play with (which was great to wear him out) I was sent multiple pics throughout the day letting me know that Ac was in excellent care. I will use them again and again 🙏🏽”
“Yessenia was absolutely lovely to work with. She answered any questions we had as first time Rover customers in order to put us at ease. We could see from the first interaction that she would be kind to our dog, as she immediately got down and gave her hand to the dog to sniff and then pet her. She has a daughter with a sweet and gentle personality, who kindly shared her own blanket with the dog to make the dog feel more comfortable. Yessenia‘s husband was friendly and pleasant as well. Yessenia sent us multiple pictures and updates over the weekend while she watched the dog. Though we brought some supplies, she was also prepared with her own if necessary. Furthermore, since Yesenia had already experienced life with a senior dog, she offered us some suggestions that might help with our pup. Our Rusty had never been cared for by a stranger up to this point. It was hard for us to leave her. That said, we would not only highly recommend Yessenia and her family to other dog owners, we will definitely reach out to Yessenia again if we need someone to board the dog. She even included a lovely note about the experience. Her thoughts were genuine, and it was nice for us to be reminded about the beauty of our dog whom we see every day.”
“Michael was absolutely fantastic! He took amazing care of our pups and kept us updated with daily photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear they were happy, well cared for, and in great hands. We are incredibly grateful for his dedication and would 100% trust him again for any future dog-sitting needs. Highly recommend!”
“Nachay was extremely amazing! She sent me updates on my dog, her dogs were extremely nice to my dog, she was also extremely nice to my dog, and my dog had an attitude when he came back home because he didn’t want to leave her house. I will be using her as a regular sitter from now on”
“The best sitter to book with! Xiaoying and her family are excellent and truly the sweetest! I had an overnight cat sitting service with them for a 7 nights and they sent me daily photos and videos and made sure to keep me updated! They also brought so many toys, a cat tree, and cat hideaway spots for my cat. My cat Lucki didn’t want to leave he really liked it there and it’s like his second home now😊 will definitely be rebooking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a pet sitter or boarding service! ❤️”

“Sharon and her family are the best. Our boy Nate loves it. Plenty of room to run, Duffy her boarder collie , gives a friend to run with for a bit. And lots of loving from the family. Nate feels right at home. Could not be happier.”
“Pam does it again!!! Mugsy can be such an anxious little guy when away from our little family, but he waltzed right into Pam’s house knowing he was in good hands!!!! We received multiple updates throughout our extended trip which kept the kids (and me!) calm knowing he was in such a loved and welcomed home!!! Pam’s house has become Mugsys own little vacation as he gets spoiled with treats and playtime with all of his new doggy friends!!!! Thank you so much Pam!!!!”
“I am so glad I trusted Kristen to keep my pet Yorkie. I went with her once I met her and saw how passionate she is about not just her animals but all. She treated my benjie like her own. I have left my dog with his vet boarding in the past and felt he didn't get the attention or care I expected. He was a little withdrawn and took a few days to be his normally playful self. When I picked up my pet from Kristen he was as happy as when I dropped him off and that meant a lot to me. I'm glad I chose Kristen and will definitely continue to use her services. I definitely recommend.”

“Veronica took exceptional care of my two dogs Molly and Oliver. She was very attentive to all their needs and provided a safe, fun environment for their entire stay. I will definitely be using Veronica again.”
“My pug Charlie had another wonderful time with Abbie and Peachy. Charlie feels really safe with Abbie even though she is a little anxious and Peachy is a great friend that helps Charlie to stay active and socialized especially in this cold weather. Outstanding hosts!”
“Michelle is fantastic! She checked in with me multiple times each day and sent pictures and videos whenever possible. She was responsive when I sent messages and questions. My pups were well taken care of.”

About: I've been caring for animals for years and have hands-on experience with both dogs and cats. I currently care for my own high-energy Shepherd mix, so I'm comfortable handling large, energetic dogs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and reading body language. I've also cared for multiple cats while their owners were away, making sure they were fed, had fresh water, clean litter boxes, plenty of attention (or space, depending on their personality), and that their owners received regular updates for peace of mind. In addition to everyday pet care, I have experience caring for dogs with medical needs. My current dog is undergoing heartworm treatment, which has taught me how important it is to follow medication schedules, activity restrictions, and provide calm, attentive care. I also helped care for my childhood dog throughout kidney disease. Whether your pet is playful, shy, young, senior, or needs a little extra patience, I'll treat them like one of my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.

“Andrea is wonderful with Teddy. I am so glad we found Andrea as she always takes such good care of Teddy when I need. Andrea is friendly, reliable, trustworthy and responds timely. I highly recommend Andrea for the best pet care services.”
“Amazing doesn’t quite describe Susan because she’s so much more. She took such great care of our two kitties while we were on almost 2 week vacation. She provided daily updates on the kitties and on the house and even took our mail in. It made our vacation so much more pleasurable knowing that we didn’t have to worry and we came home to very happy kitties. I will definitely ask Susan to watch them again and hope that she’s available when we travel:)”
About: I’ve cared for dozens of cats, including my very own. While working at an emergency animal hospital I cared for many cats with diabetes, hyperthyroidism, upper respiratory infections, and I even cared for small kittens! I can handle even the spiciest of cats, no kitty is too big of a challenge!!
“Julia was amazing with my cat! From the moment we connected, she was communicative, professional, and clearly a true animal lover. While I was away, she sent the sweetest updates and photos that genuinely made my day—my cat looked so happy and relaxed with her! She went above and beyond to make sure he was well-fed, played with, and comfortable. I came home to a happy, calm cat and everything in perfect order. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. I would 100% book with Julia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind sitter!”

About: Hi! I’m Oli, a recent grad with almost ten years of experience petsitting. I’m back on Rover for the first time in a while after some of my long-term clients moved/had kids & aren’t in need of a sitter as frequently as before, and I’m looking forward to building relationships with new clients and making friends with your pets. I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have experience taking care of dogs & cats of all ages and sizes with varying levels of needs, including rescues with significant anxiety/trauma and seniors with medical issues/cognitive decline. I can also maintain/clean freshwater fish tanks, and although I have minimal experience with exotic pets, I do have some familiarity with their needs and am quick & eager to learn more if you have any! Thanks so much for checking out my profile & considering me to take care of your non-human family members :^) I’m currently looking for work (great job market right now!!) and generally have a lot of free time. I’m mostly available during weekends and overnight during the week (when I know 100% that someone will be home to take care of Spencer), but I’m good to arrange weekday visits too!! Unfortunately, I cannot board your pet(s) in my home currently — my 14 y/o dog Spencer is ever-so-slightly senile and has developed some issues with reactivity & resource guarding

“Nashay is the only person outside of family who has taken care of my little guy and I’m not sure I’d trust anyone else. Even though it was two months between visits, he went right with her and barely wanted to leave when I came to pick him up. I love the constant updates with pictures and knowing my dog is safe and cared for!”
“Alba is wonderful! She takes such good care of peaches :) We trust her with both day boarding & overnight stays. She always sends pictures & videos & we are always at peace knowing our baby is in good hands.”

“My fiancé and I were passing through the area and had to attend a funeral on the way to vacation. Vanessa and her husband were fantastic, they were so flexible for our schedule and helpful to watch Jameson for only a few hours on a Sunday. They have a gorgeous fenced in backyard where Jameson and their sweet pup Storm played. Additionally, they were so personable and sweet. We’d definitely recommend them!”
“I will start off by stating Pamela truly a magnetic bubbly human being, her energy alone made me feel safe leaving Keanu in her care. Keanu he felt right at home immediately, and there was an instantaneous connection. Her home is immaculate, a great dog setting which in turn is 100% inviting for all pups. She is a gem and so is her animal loving hubby Jose. The countless videos, pictures are perfect and just makes me feel comfortable throughout his stay with Pamela. She shares her nutritious food and treats and he actually ate well (mini poodle picky eater). You will not be disappointed she is a true animal lover....her vibrant energy begins at her door and just elevates the owner and doggie like magic. Keanu is now a repeat daycare client and would have zero concerns when I need boarding. Thank you PAMELA”
“Maizie had a wonderful day with Samantha! She took such great care of her and sent me plenty of feedback during the day. She even found her first lost tooth!!! Looking forward to using her again.”
About: For the past few years I’ve been the number one contact in my family to pet sit. From small to large dogs I’ve been paid to feed, walk, and brush them. Additionally, I have experience training and grooming my own dog. I’m a New Paltz student and although I have classes during the week, I am still willing and able to take care of your pets at times where I don’t have class and weekends! I’m mindful when it comes to entering others homes and the boundaries clients set will always be respected! I take pride in my abilities to properly care for and walk dogs.
“Sharon and Mike took good care of our dog, Callie. They are very nice and accommodating . They have a large backyard where she was able to run around and get plenty of exercise. They also have an ample amount of shade so the dogs don’t get overheated. I highly recommend them to look after your pup.”
About: I have owned every size of dogs and breeds. I can also train basic commands like sit, lay, up, and drop it. I also have dogs on my own and they are very friendly with other dogs. I am also bilingual if you don't know that much English. I am a high school student that can take care of your animals after school. I also don't work on the weekends so I have plenty of time those days.

“Michelle was amazing with Milo! This was our first time leaving him with someone else, so I was a little nervous, but she made the whole experience so much easier and more comfortable. She was very attentive, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs, which gave me a lot of reassurance. I really appreciated the updates and how she made sure Milo felt safe and cared for. When I picked him up, he was happy and relaxed, which means everything to me as a dog mom. It was clear he was in good hands the entire time. The pickup and drop-off process was also smooth and convenient, which I loved. Overall, I had a great experience and would absolutely trust Michelle with Milo again!”

He handled her energy like a pro, giving her plenty of exercise with walks and backyard playtime, and made sure she got time to relax indoors too. I got daily updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease. Drop-offs and pickups were prompt, and it was clear Stella had a blast. Highly recommend Michael!”

“Michael was absolutely fantastic! He took amazing care of our pups and kept us updated with daily photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear they were happy, well cared for, and in great hands. We are incredibly grateful for his dedication and would 100% trust him again for any future dog-sitting needs. Highly recommend!”

Her home is spacious and clean, and there's a backyard which was perfect for my dog to go potty in the snowy weather during my trip. Would definitely recommend and book again! Thank you Diana!!”

We received updates and photos which put our minds at ease and Toby was so happy to have Pi and Jinx to play with! I can tell he already misses his new friends!”
“Britany watched my dog Reginald while I was away on vacation. Reggie can be wary of strangers sometimes but he instantly felt comfortable with Britany, and as soon as I saw her yard full of dog toys, I knew that my pup was in good hands. Britany kept me updated throughout his visit, and he was pooped when I picked him up so he definitely had a great time. I would certainly book with Britany again.”
“Nari, Ryan and Jiyu took great care of Bella for over two weeks. They took Bella everywhere they went. Many pictures and videos were sent to us. And we could tell Bella loved them from the updates we received daily. We were quite surprised how well Bella adapted that we started to get a bit jealous! They treated Bella like a family member. And we would definitely trust them again to take care of Bella in the near future!”

From regular updates to going above and beyond in ensuring her comfort, I'm beyond grateful for their exceptional service. Nova found her home away from home, and I found peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!”
