“Seamus had a great overnight sleepover and loved playing with the other dogs. Gabe is great with dogs and there’s lots of room for them to run. Would definitely use again and recommend to anyone.”
“My dog had a great time with Jennifer, Thomas and their kids. They’ shared photos of her getting petted on the couch and going on walks. She was exhausted when she came home after having had a very fun day with this lovely family.”
“A few firsts: a first-time booking with Rover and a first time my Charlie ALMOST didn’t want to come home with me 🥴🐶 Kimberly’s a gem…warm & caring & communicative & totally convenient. Highly recommend!”
“I am super new to Rover, Andrea helped every step of the way. I am very grateful for how kind and thoughtful she was. She was very good with Thor and he seemed like he had a nice time. Thank you so much would trust her again.”
“I had a great experience with Maria. It’s evident that she and her family truly love animals based on how well they cared for my cat, Pumpkin. Maria also responds quickly and happily sent photos showing Pumpkin as happy and healthy, which I really appreciate. 10/10 I will be booking again! Thanks Maria!”
“Kayte was amazing!!! My dog has anxiety, but he felt right at home with Kayte. They even went on a 5-mile walk that I’ll now have to live up to haha. She sent pics daily and Onyx always looked so happy and safe. I’ll definitely be using Kayte again!!!”
“Volha was wonderful with our pup. Our former Rover we had used for a long time left NYC, and Volha will definitely be our new Rover when we’re away. She communicated with us so well, was very accommodating with our delayed flight back, and sent us updates along the way. It’s obvious she cares a lot about pets and treats them with care and attention. It’s the best we could hope for in someone to watch our pup.”
“First of all, I was super nervous to leave my precious Teddy with someone we didn't know (and the first time he'd have been left with someone we didn't know) & Rebecca was fantastic! Kept me in the loop with how teddy was doing, got him calmed down cause he was nervous too/ sent me photos of my lil guy throughout his stay with them... I couldn't say enough good things about our experience! Teddy seemed to love them too and that's what matters to me. I'll definitely be wanting Rebecca to watch him on our future summer adventures where pups aren't allowed. THANKS SO MUCH!”
“We are so grateful for the amazing care you gave Cloud while we were away! You went above and beyond—keeping us updated the whole time and sending the sweetest pictures that truly put our mind at ease. It was clear he was in great hands. Til next time!”
“Mildred was AMAZING watching our dog Sandy. She was highly responsive, very accommodating, and gave Sandy all the love and attention she needed. She sent photos and updates throughout her stay. Would highly recommend Mildred to anyone, and would definitely book with her again!”
“Katherine was a great sitter. She really loves dogs and my dog Tyson had the greatest time her and her dog Tilly. They got along really well. Thank you so much for loving my dog for the weekend! It's so comforting to know your dog is having a great time while you are away.”
About: I was raised in a positive pet friendly family environment and had my own dogs and cats for more than twenty years. I can handle large, medium, and small dogs and will look to give them long walks and lots of exercise as a good dog is a tired dog. I work full-time but have plenty of free time during the week and on weekends to feed, walk, play fetch, or just hang out with your dog. I am happy to come to your home and walk your dog and or play at a local dog park, I am familiar with dogs from Yorkshire Terriers and Kings Charles Spaniels to Rottweilers and German Shepards.
“Amanda and her husband took wonderful care of Jack. I received daily updates and pictures which helped ease my anxiety about leaving him for a few days. He was so spoiled! You can tell they are dog lovers and treated him like he was theirs. I will be using them in the future and have already booked Jacks next stay without hesitation.”
“Cici was wonderful with Ruby! I had another rover fall through and Cici worker with me to find a solution. We were able to have a very slow and steady meet and greet. It gave Ruby a ton of confidence for the stay. All the updates about how my pup was fitting in with her family were great. She handled the pup well. Would highly recommend”
“Jane is such a kind, honest, responsible dogsitter! Our pup Holly loved staying at her dog-friendly home. The other pups there welcomed her into the pack and Jane was communicative with messages and pictures during the weekend. We highly recommend Jane!”
About: I’ve always had pets throughout my lifetime from kitties, dogs, birds, fish, reptiles, squirrels that I hand fed and set free with my father- and many more. I worked in pet stores and help foster kittens when available. 💕 Look forward to meeting you soon. I work part time as a territory supervisor, and my work is flexible. I’m home every night and throughout the day leaving me with much time to care for your pets. I’ve given medications and feed depending on preference of pet and client. Each pet is unique to their way of being and I like to match the energy needed.
“Donna was great. She treated my dog like he was her own. I felt extremely confident that Guinness was being very well taken care of. Guinness came home very happy but tired from all the fun he had playing with Donna's dogs. I will definitely use Donna and her services again. I'm very happy. I found her thank you so much.”
“Sean was absolutely great and I will definitely be using him again for future bookings! He was easy to communicate with both leading up to and during our boarding. My two dogs clearly were well cared for and came home happy and tired!”
“Megen was great, our dog came back very happy! Megen's pets were great play friends and she communicated well while we were away. Megen was also very flexible with drop off and pick up which we really appreciated.”
“Rosalie was very kind to our senior dog, Bob. She has a lovely, clean home with a private, enclosed back yard for him to roam around. I would hire her again and recommend her to others.”

“So glad to have found Grettel. She was wonderful with my senior cat & making sure she got her meds each day. Definitely would re-book in the future. Thanks Grettel!”
“Kimberly took fantastic care of my cats! I have one shy cat that I thought would hide while she visited, but my kitty was out during each visit, and even played with her! I couldn't be happier, and have already re-booked her for another time while I'll be traveling. She's incredibly nice, and my cats were definitely well cared for!”
“Quick reply, prompt visit, really good photos. When I got back, everything was in its right place and clean and fair. My dog seemed very happy as well. What more can I ask for? Also she did a tick check, which I didn't even think about for a quick walk. Very much appreciated. Thank you.”
“Ebony is a lifesaver!!! Took care of our four pets for 3 days super super last minute — she is super communicative, sends pictures often, and took our dogs on a walk daily. I have a kitten and she took special care of him. Took extra time to make sure each pet felt comfy with her. She’s our go-to sitter now!”
“Lexi was fabulous, Walter and Bageera were both very well taken care of and we were kept up to date the whole time. We missed our kids (pets) very much while we were gone but very confident that we left them in good hands with Lexi. NO WORRIES 😉 👍🏼”
About: I’ve taken care if pets of all kinds since I can remember. I’ve had kitties, dos, reptiles, fish & birds. Also, have raised 2 orphaned squirrels as a child and what a great experience that was. I worked as a teenager in a pet store, and fostered kitties and a few puppies. I’ll care for your babies as my own.
“This was the 2nd time Paula watched our home & cats. Did a great job, home was left clean and secure. She is a professional and dedicated to the services she provides. Highly recommend.”
“Once again Paige took amazing care of my babies while i was away. I can tell they are happy with her love and care from the regular photos and updates she sends! I truly value Paige’s professionalism and love when she’s taking care of my kitties!! ♥️♥️”
“Kacey is the best! We can't recommend her highly enough. She's super communicative, wonderful with animals, creative in her approach to problem solving, and takes incredible photos to boot.”
“Timothy was a great sitter for our elderly cat. He was patient, kind and easily administered medication for our fur guy. We absolutely will hire Timothy again when we’re out of town and know our cat Stoopy would be in good hands.”
About: I grew up with two dogs who were my best friends. I have been steadily watching my sister’s beautiful dog Albert and her new puppy Janice for 3 years. Those days are the best days - i walk them, feed them their meals and required medicine, and always make sure they have loads of attention and pets! I work remotely and my schedule is very flexible, so I can cater to your individualized needs! I travel sometimes on weekends, but with enough notice, I will lock your dog sitting needs into my schedule and always show up in a timely fashion! I always keep an eye on the pets I am watching when out in the yard, even if the space is enclosed - I watch for other animals, etc to always ensure your pet’s safety. I have gone on many a walk with medium to large dogs and always make sure their leash is within 6-8 feet and they are secure within their harness.
About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life—whether it’s been my own pets, helping out friends, or rescuing strays in need. Both of my cats were rescued by me, and I’ve always had a natural connection with animals. They’re drawn to me, and I love giving them the same trust and affection they show me. I grew up with big dogs, including two pit bulls and a boxer, so I’m confident and comfortable handling larger breeds. Over the years, I’ve potty trained dogs, taught tricks, and cared for pets with all kinds of temperaments. My experience goes beyond cats and dogs—I’ve also cared for frogs, snakes, turtles, and even had the incredible opportunity to volunteer with elephants in Thailand. My love for animals runs so deep that I’ve been vegan for over a decade. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s truly part of who I am. What I Offer 🐾 A 100% open and flexible schedule—your pets will always get the time, love, and attention they deserve. 🐾 Experience with animals of all sizes, temperaments, and special needs. 🐾 Patience, playfulness, and genuine compassion for every pet I meet. Whether it’s cuddles, walks, playtime, or extra TLC, I’ll treat your fur babies like they’re my own. I have a completely open and flexible schedule, available any day and time. Since I mostly work from home, I can easily accommodate bookings, cancellations, last-minute changes, and special requests. The only exception is occasional weekend evenings after 5 PM, when I work at The Colony in Woodstock. Other than that, I’m always here for you and your pets! I live in a spacious three-bedroom, 2 story home with a large open yard, perfect for pets to play and explore. Your furry friend will have plenty of room to stretch, run, and enjoy the outdoors while getting all the exercise and fresh air they need to stay happy and healthy.
“Chana took very good care of my two cats, staying in my house with them for five days and nights. She sent me photos of the cats while I was away, reported on how they were doing and took care of some things around the house. Everything was in tip-top shape when I returned and my cats were happy. It was a great comfort knowing the cats were well cared for while I was away. I highly recommend her as a cat sitter, and house sitter.”
About: When I was a little girl, I read the warrior cat series and fell in love with cats. I decided I had to have one. It took me over two years to convince my parents, but once I got my first (a five year that had been abandoned at the shelter on Christmas) I was hooked. I love every cat, not just my own. Eventually even the most aloof, unfriendly, feral old curmudgeon of a kitty has my respect. I will never force a cat that doesn't want to be bothered to give me attention. That said, I'm very good at doing towel burritos around them if they do need to get a nail trimming or insulin injection. I love to play with them and find new ways to give them enrichment. I really believe cats deserve the attention and commitment dogs do.
About: I’ve taken care of animals for over 15 years. I pet sat many times as a child and continued through adulthood including, walking, feeding, administering medicine, baths & snuggles! I also volunteered at a local animal shelter as a dog walker. Currently 3 cats and a rambunctious German Shepard/Siberian Husky 3 years old. I have cared for all kinds of pets including but not limited to goats, chickens, horses, pigs, donkeys etc I’m currently working full time but have a very flexible schedule and can move my hours around to meet your needs especially for early morning and later evening check ins or during work hours! I have worked with leash trained and non leash trained dogs if you have a fenced in yard. I prefer leash trained dogs for public walks with a standard leash. I love animals, their snuggles & kisses too! I have kids & animals so drool & slobber don’t bother me!

“Kimberly was fantastic. Our pup spent the entire day with her while we golfed and had a birthday dinner. Very appreciative of her and will reach out again if we are in the area. Highly recommend!”
“Amy and her husband Chris took great care of my six month old puppy for the day. It was an early drop-off and they were incredibly accommodating (and patient when my puppy then cried like someone had died after I left). Amy was very responsive over text and I felt like my girl was in extremely good hands! Would recommend!”
“Hila hosted Millie for a day and Millie had a great time. We are so happy Hila was available. Hila was also communicative and flexible with us. Millie Enjoyed playing with Hila’s dog Ruby too.”
“Rosalie was SO GOOD and patient with our nervous chihuahua. She sent great updates and he had a lovely time in her home and fenced yard. We highly recommend her for dogs of all sizes! :)”
“Amanda was an amazing sitter for our dog Honey! She was thoughtful, communicative, flexible on timing, and Honey seemed so happy and calm when we picked her up. I couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Can't say enough good things about Sophia. She was extremely caring and loving with our puppy, a true animal lover and very pleasant person to deal with. Thank you once again!!!”
“Great experience of doggy day care. Eleanor met us and our dog prior to the doggy day care visit. She has a calm demeanor. She sent photos throughout the day to show us our dog was content - what more can one ask for? Thank you Eleanor.”
About: Hello, I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 11 years old. From dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, you name it! I’ve trained many puppies and love everyone’s furry friends. Fun Fact my dog at home is scared of thunder, so I always sit in the bathtub with him until he’s ready to come out (photo included) I’ve also babysat and house sat for many years :) I have maximum 2 one hour classes a day with a 3 hour gap in between! So there will be plenty of time for me to take care of your furry friends!!! I live in a single room on campus with loads of space and two beds if the pets want to have a comfy space. When I have to leave for a class I play zen pet music to help calm them down if I have to leave!
“Chaqutia took great care of our Labradoodle! She sent me pictures and updates throughout the stay, which really put my mind at ease. I was a little nervous about leaving my pet in a new home, but everything went perfectly. Knowing our dog was in good hands allowed me to relax and enjoy my birthday with my family. Thanks so much, Chaqutia!”
“Jacqueline was very friendly and communicative, and Bunsen took an instant liking. We received photos of her well-being during her stay and of her mile walk. Jacqueline’s home is conveniently located in a popular historic town, making drop-off/pickup easy on the way to/from Hunter Ski Resort from our hotel. Bunsen was well cared for and happy. She was also so tired, that she managed to rest during the long car ride back home! We would book Jacqueline again.”
About: I’ve always had a passion for animals my whole life and would love to provide an easy, safe and affordable sitting and walking experience for you and your family! I have over 15 years dog watching, walking and loving experience and would love to help you out! I’m able to come to your home and stay overnight, just a day or even just an hour. Whatever pet services you need provided for your fluffy best friend I can accommodate. I’ve always been told I have a way with animals and I think it’s just because they have always genuinely made me happy. I’m sure you’ll be happy with the way I treat your pup and I know they’ll be happy to stretch their legs with me! I’m currently available full-time to board animals at my private house on a quiet street! I also offer dog walking and drop ins as well as housesitting! My home is pet free at the moment so your animal will have their own private Airbnb and full reign of my cozy little house!
About: I didn’t get to experience the joy of growing up with dogs or cats but as soon as I was able I began taking in fosters from the NYC shelter system. It was quite a learning experience spending time with many dogs (and a few cats) of all different types and personalities. I no longer foster but I bring the experience and dedication from working with so many shelter pets to caring for your furry family members. And as a pet parent now myself I have been through many sitters so I understand what makes a good one! A note on boarding and meet and greets: I’m happy to have boarding candidates come by to meet me and check out the space but I do not do meet and greets with my own dogs. My dogs are dog friendly but they are too chaotic and excitable to meet new dogs and owners right away. New dogs are kept separate at first and introduced at their own pace when everyone is calm. This minimizes stress for everyone and allows for better interactions. I currently work out of the house Monday/Wednesday/Friday but my schedule is somewhat flexible. The rest of the week I work at home and I am often available all weekend. Dogs in my home have access to a securely fenced large yard for running and fetch, as well as a quiet neighborhood for walks. If the weather is warm dogs have access to a dog door so they may go outside as they please. If your dog likes to play with other dogs mine will certainly be happy to accommodate but they can also have separate spaces if quiet time is needed. In your home I will make every effort to keep your pets schedule as familiar as possible while offering lots of love and stimulation. As someone who has had many sitters come through and stay at my house I understand the importance of trust and cleanliness so you can be away without worry.
“Marielle took great care of my little Zuzu! My puppy started the day sad about me leaving her there and by the end she was totally bonded with Marielle! She was also totally tuckered out so she clearly got plenty of exercise.”
“This was his second visit, he did well. Nicole sent me pics and updates on how he was doing. ( He’s clingy and a mama’s boy lol ). I'm so grateful that we found Nicole. I truly believe he will come out of his shell. I believe he will blossom with her as time goes on.”
“Jane’s home is welcoming & relaxed. Our Sadie was nervous her first day of Doggie Daycare but was one of the pack by the I returned later in the day to pick her up. THANK YOU JANE!! Sadie will be back for another day with her doggie friends soon.”
About: My own dogs are always the #1 teacher. They show me how to best care for them - with food, play, training, medications, travel, sleepless days and nights when they've been ill, and giving them all them comfort I can. I've volunteered at dog shelters, spent hours walking dogs in all kinds of weather, and offered comfort to friends who've had to say goodbye to their best fur friends. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pets plenty of attention - playing, feeding, and scratching behind the ears. I take my dog for swims in the river, off leash romps in the woods, and leashed walks around town. We also play fetch and tug-of-war in the house or on the deck. If your dog needs a playmate, my dog, Jackson, may be a good fit. My cats - depending on their mood - like to lounge in the sun, pounce on the occasional toy, run up stairs, and hunt for treats I've hidden for them.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life! Recently started boarding and at home visits within the past two years and I love it! I’ve worked with puppies-elderly dogs, helped train from bite work to bathroom breaks. I try to do it and love it all! I am a teacher and I have summer home free with my daughter. We don’t have any pets of our own and love to love the pets you love! I like to follow the requests of the client, wherever, however, and whenever i’m needed! I have a fenced in yard and no other pets.

“Kimberly was amazing!!! Fast response!!! Awesome Communication!!! Went above and beyond!!! She came to our campsite while we were out exploring!!!... Would definitely use again and highly recommend!!!!!”
“Grettel was great with our sweet but anxious dog! She’s clearly very experienced with dogs and is able to read our dog’s cues clearly and respond accordingly. She was very accommodating to our pup’s special needs, and a just a joy to work with. Highly recommend!”
“Kacey came to walk our pup Lotte on Thanksgiving, Lotte was very excited to have the company and Kacey even sent us some pics of the cats as well who came downstairs to say hello! Would hire Kacey again!”
“Ella is wonderful! She is outgoing, friendly, and an excellent communicator. More important, she clearly adores dogs. She quickly bonded with our shy & anxious girl, Mina, at their first meeting. As well, Ella was unflustered when I realized I'd scheduled the wrong day for one of Mina's walks. Thankfully, she was able to accommodate my (very) last-minute revision! We will definitely request Ella again!!”

About: I have spent many years caring for dogs and I pride myself on building trust, providing excellent care, and treating every pet like they’re family. I have a very flexible schedule, allowing me to provide dependable care throughout the week. Animal care is a true passion of mine and I am committed to giving every pet the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. I understand the importance of trusting someone with your pet and home. I am reliable, responsible, and committed to providing safe, professional care while keeping your pet comfortable and happy in their own home.
About: I have experience with many different dog breeds with different energy and health needs. I give all of the animals under my care the same treatment. I would take care of a super senior cat with the same dedication I would a golden retriever puppy. I'm not squeamish at all either, I'm comfortable dealing with body fluids and administering injection and medications. I have volunteered at multiple animal shelters so i've seen it all! Currently, my only commitments are helping to babysit younger family members, which is flexible schedule and only part-time. I have lots of time to not only take care of your animals, but also play with them and give them good entertainment My own dog is a runner, so I am hypervigilant about making sure animals don't dart out doors. I always make sure I physically see the animal and watch them to make sure they look healthy and happy, I don't just leave food and water and go home. I'm more than happy to give daily updates on animals i'm watching there are owners out of town and take pictures
About: Hi, I'm Marceline! Growing up with a wildlife rehabilitator for a parent, I was surrounded by animals from day one. From bottle-feeding baby raccoons to gently caring for injured birds, I learned early on the patience, empathy, and responsibility that animals deserve. That lifelong passion turned into a career of caring: I spent 4 years at a cat shelter, helping to socialize, medicate and find loving homes for many cats. Beyond that, I've volunteered extensively at Farm sanctuaries and animal shelters, gaining hands-on experience with dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, and more! Whether your pet is playful and energetic or shy and sensitive, I'm dedicated to providing calm, attentive, loving care that meets their unique needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your animal family. You can count on me to treat your pets like my own - with respect, reliability and plenty of love. Let's connect - I'd love to meet you and your pets! Because I have an open schedule, I'm able to dedicate focused time throughout the day for walks, feedings, play, medication and whatever unique care each pet needs. I plan my day around their routines, not the other way around - whether that means early morning visits, midday potty breaks, evening cuddle time, or sleepovers. I'm used to structuring my day with animals in mind, especially my own cats and hermit crabs. Being attentive to animals' behaviors and needs is second nature to me, and I always make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and consistency throughout the day. When you leave your pet in my care, you're not just hiring someone to feed or walk them - you're trusting me with a member of your family. I take that responsibility seriously. Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment is at the heart of everything I do. I closely follow your pet's routines, dietary needs, and any medical requirements to make sure they stay happy and healthy. Im experienced in handling a wide range or animals - including those with special needs, and I always keep a close eye on behaviot and well-being When I visit your home for your pet, I strive to create a low-stress environment where they feel safe, relaxed, and loved. From cozy resting spots to familiar routines and gentle handling, I make sure your pet feels right at home with me.
About: I have had pets my whole life and hold animals dear to my heart! I LOVE spending time with them and making them happy. I have cared for dogs and cats for years and am very patient with them. I have a fenced in yard. I would prefer to avoid bringing clients pets into my home because I have 2 cats. But if the dog is friendly enough and has experience with cats I would consider it. My house is fairly big. It has a basement and attic, with 2 floors they’d have room to run and play. I have a medium sized yard so there would be room for them to run and play. I also have a safe street to bring them on walks. I pet sit full time. I’m looking to gain more clients so please book me. I spend my time practicing yoga, studying holistic health, caring for my own cats, reading or creating… so I am able to shift my schedule around easily to fit your needs! My home is cozy and safe with lots of room to run around and comfy furniture to sleep on! I keep the windows open and do not use toxic products in my house.
About: As a social worker, I'm highly attuned to both human and animal needs/issues, and love getting to know and cater to unique personalities - or provide loving care for those who are ill or have special needs. I started taking care of neighbors' pets at an early age and though we only had fish and birds and a cat at home, dogs and other animals became a special love of mine. I have been cat, dog, bird and other little furry friend sitting for over four decades and have done so for several years as a 5 star sitter on Trusted Housesitters. I love making new furry friends, both for sharing my positive, attentive energy with them, and for nourishing in the innocent sweet playfulness they often offer. The mutual benefits of animal care are no joke! As an avid traveler and travel writer (we social workers need periodic breaks from our big jobs), pet sitting has been a fabulous win-win-for-all! I love immersing in local scenes, and enjoy getting to know the nature, infrastructure, and pulse of new places. Perhaps most importantly, I love hunkering down for writing (I am a published writer in addition to being a social worker) with the delightful energy of furry friends beside me. They seem to like it too! I grew up in a small city, have lived in a major city for over two decades and LOVE being in more rural and remote areas too. You can count on me to bring my strong sense of professionalism and responsibility to your pets and to your home. I’ve often been told that other than happy pets, there was no sign I had even been there! I am currently freelancing/focusing my time on writing projects so I often have a flexible schedule....and love taking work breaks with furry friends! A veteran 5-start pet-sitter, I am new to Rover and am figuring out how the calendar and geography works so it can reflect where I am and when I'm available. Most folks comment that they can barely tell I've been there. Cleanliness, respect, and loving care are my hallmarks. I make sure to honor any requests and instructions for people's homes, which often have quirks and special needs -- and to of course respect privacy too, just as I would as a social worker. As for furry friends, they get exceptional, reliable, patient, playful, caring energy from me while I make sure that all their food, litter, or other needs are met.
About: I love dogs and have been working with them for 2+ years now. I care for them at home, give required medications and give them long enjoyable walks. I can come in at a time convenient for you and respond to the needs of your dog. I can also care for cats as well. If needed, when I stop in, I can also bathe dogs if needed by the owner. I want to do all I can so that your beautiful animals are happy, safe, well fed and comfortable. I can provide exercise for high energy dogs as well. I want to do all I can for you, the owner, and your precious pet. Please consider me for your pets needs to be met. Thank you.
About: I’ve taken care of animals for over 15 years. I pet sat many times as a child and continued through adulthood including, walking, feeding, administering medicine, baths & snuggles! I also volunteered at a local animal shelter as a dog walker. Currently 3 cats and a rambunctious German Shepard/Siberian Husky 3 years old. I have cared for all kinds of pets including but not limited to goats, chickens, horses, pigs, donkeys etc I’m currently working full time but have a very flexible schedule and can move my hours around to meet your needs especially for early morning and later evening check ins or during work hours! I have worked with leash trained and non leash trained dogs if you have a fenced in yard. I prefer leash trained dogs for public walks with a standard leash. I love animals, their snuggles & kisses too! I have kids & animals so drool & slobber don’t bother me!
About: I’ve worked with dogs of all shapes and sizes, I have volunteered countless hours in a shelter and have lived with dogs for the last 10 years. I have experience with both pure breed and rescues. I am an active person so your dog will always have someone to play with! I currently work nights so late night or early morning visits are never an issue! I love to stay active and four legged friends the attention they deserve, so if you want your animal to not only be acted for but loved then please reach out to me. Depending on the services provided and your dogs actively level I would love to take them for a long walk or chase each other in the backyard. I am currently a nursing student so I enjoy having an outlet of pet therapy to distract from the stress of school work.

“Seamus had a great overnight sleepover and loved playing with the other dogs. Gabe is great with dogs and there’s lots of room for them to run. Would definitely use again and recommend to anyone.”
“I am super new to Rover, Andrea helped every step of the way. I am very grateful for how kind and thoughtful she was. She was very good with Thor and he seemed like he had a nice time. Thank you so much would trust her again.”
“Volha was wonderful with our pup. Our former Rover we had used for a long time left NYC, and Volha will definitely be our new Rover when we’re away. She communicated with us so well, was very accommodating with our delayed flight back, and sent us updates along the way. It’s obvious she cares a lot about pets and treats them with care and attention. It’s the best we could hope for in someone to watch our pup.”
“First of all, I was super nervous to leave my precious Teddy with someone we didn't know (and the first time he'd have been left with someone we didn't know) & Rebecca was fantastic! Kept me in the loop with how teddy was doing, got him calmed down cause he was nervous too/ sent me photos of my lil guy throughout his stay with them... I couldn't say enough good things about our experience! Teddy seemed to love them too and that's what matters to me. I'll definitely be wanting Rebecca to watch him on our future summer adventures where pups aren't allowed. THANKS SO MUCH!”
“Mildred was AMAZING watching our dog Sandy. She was highly responsive, very accommodating, and gave Sandy all the love and attention she needed. She sent photos and updates throughout her stay. Would highly recommend Mildred to anyone, and would definitely book with her again!”
“Katherine was a great sitter. She really loves dogs and my dog Tyson had the greatest time her and her dog Tilly. They got along really well. Thank you so much for loving my dog for the weekend! It's so comforting to know your dog is having a great time while you are away.”
About: I was raised in a positive pet friendly family environment and had my own dogs and cats for more than twenty years. I can handle large, medium, and small dogs and will look to give them long walks and lots of exercise as a good dog is a tired dog. I work full-time but have plenty of free time during the week and on weekends to feed, walk, play fetch, or just hang out with your dog. I am happy to come to your home and walk your dog and or play at a local dog park, I am familiar with dogs from Yorkshire Terriers and Kings Charles Spaniels to Rottweilers and German Shepards.
“Amanda and her husband took wonderful care of Jack. I received daily updates and pictures which helped ease my anxiety about leaving him for a few days. He was so spoiled! You can tell they are dog lovers and treated him like he was theirs. I will be using them in the future and have already booked Jacks next stay without hesitation.”
“Cici was wonderful with Ruby! I had another rover fall through and Cici worker with me to find a solution. We were able to have a very slow and steady meet and greet. It gave Ruby a ton of confidence for the stay. All the updates about how my pup was fitting in with her family were great. She handled the pup well. Would highly recommend”
“Jane is such a kind, honest, responsible dogsitter! Our pup Holly loved staying at her dog-friendly home. The other pups there welcomed her into the pack and Jane was communicative with messages and pictures during the weekend. We highly recommend Jane!”
“Sean was absolutely great and I will definitely be using him again for future bookings! He was easy to communicate with both leading up to and during our boarding. My two dogs clearly were well cared for and came home happy and tired!”
“Megen was great, our dog came back very happy! Megen's pets were great play friends and she communicated well while we were away. Megen was also very flexible with drop off and pick up which we really appreciated.”
“Rosalie was very kind to our senior dog, Bob. She has a lovely, clean home with a private, enclosed back yard for him to roam around. I would hire her again and recommend her to others.”
“This was our first time leaving my almost 4 year old dog with any type of sitter. This was also her first time, with other dogs for an extended period of time. I was a little nervous at first but once we had the meet and greet with Jeff before confirming the stay I knew this would be the best place for my Betsy! Jeff was great at communicating before, after and during the stay. We got so many photos of how Betsy was doing. We had a bunch of thunder storms the week she was staying, Jeff did a fantastic job keeping her comfortable. He sent many updates and overall I felt confident that betsy was taken care of. When we picked her up she was so calm for the rest of the day. She had a great stay, and made so many few doggie friends! I would recommend Jeff to anyone and everyone! We differently will be having Betsy stay with him again!”
“Thalya was great and really looked after my dog Duke really well! We were gone for over 20 days and Thalya really went above and beyond to make Duke feel at home! Would recommend to all!”
“I can't say enough good things about Athena! She took amazing care of my dog while I was away for vacation, and I felt so at ease knowing she was looking after him. She went above and beyond, keeping me updated with pictures and messages throughout my vacation, which really put my mind at ease. On top of that, she's super sweet and easy to communicate with. I’d absolutely trust her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet sitter. Thank you again from us and Bruce for everything, Athena!”
“Nicole is amazing! She's accommodating, responds quickly, loves my dog and genuinely takes care of him showing love and TLC! She has a stunning outdoor set-up for furry friends and could not be lovelier. I will continue to request her services before looking for anyone else! I highly recommend her!”
“My dog was in good spirits when I picked her up after staying with Cipriana . I appreciated the photos she sent of Abby cuddling on the couch! I will definitely use Cipriana’s services again in the future.”
“Sarah was my first experience with Rover and Rex's first time staying with a sitter. After meeting Sarah the day before, Rex was immediately drawn to her. Her compassion and experience with dogs was evident from the start. She was very communicative and kept us in the loop with photos and updates throughout Rex's stay. Honestly can't say enough good things about her and how much she eased my nerves throughout this process. The next time I'm in need of a sitter, Sarah will be Rex and I's first choice. Highly recommend!”
“Terrance was kind and communicative from texting to the day we picked up Moose. We needed a sitter in the area last-minute and, as soon as we met him, knew our girl was in good hands. He answered questions about the space she’d be spending the most time in, encouraged us to bring stuff that would make her feel comfortable, assured her safety, and sent updates with pics. His kind demeanor and professionalism was so reassuring and allowed us a peaceful weekend. 10/10 recommend Terrance and would book his services again!”
