“We left our dog with Lorinda for several days. She did great with Caya and Caya loved her. We were sent photos, which we loved. We will definitely leave her again with no worries. I recommend Lorinda to anyone.”
“We feel so lucky to have found Charlene. Our two dogs instantly took to Charlene at the meet and greet and gave her lots of kisses. We felt totally at ease leaving our dogs with her . Our one dog was very nervous the first day and had an upset stomach and Charlene and her husband took extra good care of her and kept me updated on her and my other dog . Both her and her husband let our dogs sleep right next to them . When we pulled up to pick our dogs up our one dog was cuddled right next to Charlene giving her kisses . We can’t thank you and your husband enough for taking such good care of our babies . It is such a relief to us to have found such a wonderful sitter and will definitely always have you watch our babies . Thanks a million for the great care you gave our dogs Donna N and Frank”
“Jeannys was absolutely amazing. If I could give her more stars I would. She took care of my stray who I found abandoned on the side of the road in the beginning of summer. Molly is a little shy and nervous but she went right with Jeannys and seemed SO comfortable which reassured me. Jeannys constantly updated me with photos and videos! She also took Molly out and about like she was her own dog! I will definitely be using Jeannys for Molly in the future!”
“Bee was a joy to deal with sent me many pictures of Maddie..Maddie enjoyed being with her dog Harley and she was very well taken care of. Would recommend anyone boarding their dog with her”
“Nicole was awesome. She has a very positive upbeat energy about her.. She came to my house to meet my dog Sadie before my booking started, and I immediately got a good vibe from her - and so did my dog. I felt reassured leaving Sadie with her knowing she is a vet tech. I will definitely be booking my dog’s care with her again.”
“Gil was so great with our Lulu !!! He was awesome to communicate with before and during her stay. We set up a meet beforehand and he asked lots of thoughtful questions to make sure he understood her care. Lulu had long walks in the country while she was with him and lots of snuggles - just what she loves ! When we picked her up she was so relaxed and happy. Couldn’t ask for anyone better to watch our girl ?”

“Gil's calm and thoughtful demeanor immediately inspired trust. His care of my cat was flawless. I will request Gil next time I am away. I recommend Gil without reservation.”
“Colleen checked in on my cats while I was out of town. She refilled food and water supply, and changed the waste bin for the automated litter box. She gave me photo updates of my cats greeting her at the door. I appreciated her services and would book again for whenever I am out of town.”
“Excellent! Super friendly, immediate and positive responses, very engaged, incredible with dogs. Even noticed a medical condition in my poodle and offered to help. Even helped with other animals on property. Super thank you! Would 100% recommend. Dependable, honest, proactive, engaging communicator, trustworthy, and non-judgemental.”

About: I grew up in a house that shears had at least one cat. I love their calm independence and their aggressive demands for attention on the turn of a dime. My last cat who I’d had since she was a kitten in the 1990s, lived to be a distinguished old lad. Toward the end I had to administer subcutaneous fluids along with a battery of meds. Several of my current clients require syringe meds & pills hidden in coveted wet food. I haven’t had another cat of my own since, but recharge my cat lady powers whenever I get to care for them.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Sidney
“This was my dog's first time with a Rover sitter. Lorinda did her best to get him settled. She understood he was not wanting to be social. She got her chair and stayed by him while he was in her fenced area. Couldn't ask for more.”
“Our dog Luna had a fun day playing and going for walks, while we felt at-ease all day knowing she was in good hands. We would book again because we appreciated the periodic updates, pet-free home for focused attention, and responsiveness.”

“I can’t thank Gil enough for the attentiveness, caring, and love he showed to my 15 yr old dachshund! Gil took the time to listen to my wife and me when we described to him our pup’s tendencies and hinderances. We felt confident as we pulled out of the driveway that our old guy was in great hands! Gil made sure to send us photos of our pup throughout the day, as well as updates on its evacuations (very important for an older dog). Overall, I can say unequivocally that Gil was a perfect sitter for our elderly pup, and I would 100% recommend him to anyone needing a pet sitter in that area! Kudos, Gil!”
“Charlene was an amazing sitter and made our pup feel super comfy. She was really communicative and he came home happy as can be! Would use her service again anytime ! Thank you so much!”
About: Hi! My name is Julia and i'm 33 years old. I have 2 little boys that are homeschooled. I've been taking care of all sorts of animals since I was a little girl! I have always had a nurturing personality and loved making sure they always had a clean environment and were always cared for. I've always groomed my own pets and I can also give any medications or shots they may need for medical conditions. I'd love to take your dog for a walk or play some fetch in the yard! I'll make sure they feel loved and cared for while you're away. I'm a stay at home mom of 2 little boys!

If your dog is staying in my home, my cats will be kept seperate from them so there is no issues or worries :)

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Sidney
About: I have over 7 years of hands-on animal care experience, including running my own dog walking business for 2 years and ongoing work in farm animal rescue. I had two dogs of my own for over 15 years and have cared for many rescue dogs with a wide range of personalities and needs. I’m patient, reliable, and especially comfortable with shy, nervous, or high-energy dogs. I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine while they’re in my care. I do have cats in my home, so dogs staying with me should be cat-friendly. References are available upon request. “Pet care is a central part of my daily routine. I work part-time overnight, which means I’m home and available throughout the day for walks, supervision, and consistent care. I also run a nonprofit animal rescue from my home, so caring for animals is something I’m actively doing every day. My routine is built around feeding schedules, exercise, cleaning, and making sure each animal gets individual attention. Because of this, I’m very used to managing different needs while keeping a calm, structured environment.” depends on each pet’s routine and comfort level, but I always aim to keep things as consistent and low-stress as possible. In my home, I provide a calm, structured environment with regular feeding schedules, exercise, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. Dogs get daily walks, enrichment, and individual attention. I take introductions slowly and make sure everyone is safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications if needed—while also keeping your home clean and respected. I pay attention to behavior and body language and adjust care based on what each pet needs. My goal is always to make pets feel secure and well cared for, whether they’re in my home or staying in theirs
