“Sherlock's enjoyed his stay! Glad he got along well with Oakley and Archer right off the bat. Kerri was so kind and was awesome with providing with pictures and updates every day.”
“Amber took a last minute booking for my elderly 15 yo beagle this past weekend. My dog is not the easiest with dementia, urinary incontinence, hard of hearing and paces a lot. Despite all of those things, Amber took my dog in and cared for her with ease and so mooch compassion and patience. I am so grateful for the care and would definitely recommend her and use her again in the future!”
About: I have 2.5 years of experience working as a veterinarian assistant for a family-owned and operated animal hospital. Aspects of my job include restraining, handling, medicating, feeding, grooming, bathing, and caring for any pets who may board with us at the hospital. I have comfortably handled dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, needs, and temperaments, and I am confident in my ability to care for dogs of all life stages. My schedule is extremely flexible and I am never away from home for more than four hours any day of the week, which means plenty of time for potty breaks, playtime, and feedings. I have a fully enclosed, insulated, temperature controlled, spacious gazebo on my property surrounded by a pet-proof fenced-in playpen. The inside is divided into four sections, so I can board up to four dogs no bigger than 40lbs at one time, and each pet will have his or her own space indoors for eating and sleeping. Outside, the pets will be able to interact and play, and they will always be supervised.
“Vanessa was absolutely AMAZING! She provided daily updates, photos and bonus videos! Lola was taken care of and loved just as much as she is at home. We are using Vanessa for our other family trip at the end of this month and I can feel at ease knowing that she will be a responsive and reliable sitter!”
“Kristen was very accommodating to our shy rescue pup, Maizie. She got all the attention and was well looked after and I have booked Kristen to watch her for another stay.”
“John treats my dog like his own. John really seems to enjoy the time he has with Deuce. The funny thing was, Deuce hardly wanted to go home with me when I picked him up. Deuce wanted to continue to play. I don't have to worry at all when I leave Deuce with John.”
“Rachel and Henrik (and their two wonderful kids!) watched our two Goldendoodles for the weekend, and we couldn’t have had a better experience. From the start, it was clear this was a perfect fit—we did a meet-and-greet beforehand, and instantly felt comfortable. Their home is beautiful, clean, and has a great backyard where our dogs had plenty of space to run and play. More importantly, our dogs were treated like part of the family—they got tons of attention, snuggles, and care all weekend. We also really appreciated the frequent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind. When we dropped them off, our dogs were so excited they ran right in without hesitation—that says everything. You can truly tell how much Rachel and Henrik love dogs and care for them as their own. One of the nicest families we’ve met, and we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were so well cared for. We will absolutely be using them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional dog care.”
“Jennifer was great watching our Max! I'm always nervous about leaving him somewhere new but he settled in pretty quickly with her family. She sent over 100 pictures while we were away for 6 days which I truly appreciated! I will be recommending her to anyone and everyone I meet.”
“The best dog sitter I have met. Daisy was so happy with them. They were so attentive to her and always sending me pictures of all the fun and activities they had with daisy. I will gladly have her as my dog sitter for daisy whenever I need and would definitely recommend to anybody who needs a dog sitter. Thank you so much Veronique you are the best. ☺️😬”
“Our dog Blanche had a great stay with Theresa and her family! We were given at least two updates a day with pictures. We will definitely book again for a future stay.”
“I'm neurotic with my dogs. I don't trust many to take care of them in my absence. But I can say I had none of this with Gabby. She was on top of my concerns and kept me in the loop the whole time. She definitely has top tier experience with dogs and "gets" them. Will rebook again 100%.”
“Trisha was great, she kept us in the loop with pictures and texts the whole evening. It was the first time we left our dog Jax who’s 1-1/2 old boxer with tons of energy. Thank you Trisha and we will definitely leave Jax with again and again.”
“Samantha has taken such great care of our fur babies. She is caring and loves them like they were her own pets. I can always count on her to give them the attention they need. They are both senior dogs and need special attention and care. I would not hesitate to use her when we need her services. I would highly recommend her any time.”
“Donna has a big fenced yard and a welcoming home … would be nice to have more regular feedback during boarding but she is very prompt with replying to text … I would definitely use her again”
“We left our family Dog, Luna, with Alex for 9 nights and he did a great job! Alex sent a short video and photo every morning to keep us assured that Luna was having a great time and was doing well! I would highly recommend Alex and wouldn't hesitate to use him again!”
“Amazing family home, Diana and Mike are perfect sitters and the peace of mind they provided with the constant pics and updates truly made my trip that much better. Highly recommend!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs. I currently own four dogs: two adult Belgian Malinois, a German Shepherd puppy, and a senior Shih Tzu mix. I have crate trained and potty trained multiple puppies and am familiar with the time, patience, and consistency required for successful training. Through caring for both high-energy working breeds and senior dogs, I have experience managing different exercise needs, routines, temperaments, and levels of care. I am committed to providing a safe, structured, and positive environment for every dog in my care. I am home most of the time and provide full-time care for the dogs in my home. Because I am available throughout the day, dogs receive regular supervision. I have a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely go outside for potty breaks and exercise. I am comfortable reinforcing crate training when needed and believe crates are a valuable tool for safety and routine. My own dogs are crate trained and are crated when they cannot be directly supervised to ensure their safety and prevent unwanted behaviors. I provide a structured, safe, and supervised environment while making sure each dog receives plenty of attention, care, and opportunities to play and relax.
“Sara and her family are wonderful! Our dog Ember has stayed with her many times over the last few years and always has a great time. Sara sends frequent updates and I always feel comfortable knowing that Ember is getting amazing care. Thank you Sara :)”

“Claudia was great with my pup. She is punctual, great with communication and an awesome dog sitter. My pup was very excited to have her stop by. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Amber was absolutely amazing with both of my cats while I was out of the country for a wedding. She went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for and loved. She kept me updated with pictures and had great communication the entire time, which gave me so much peace of mind being away. I could tell my cats were happy and comfortable in her care. I’ll definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Just booked Courtney for the millionth time (she is our favorite go-to sitter) and she was amazing as always! Took care of our 5 cats (one new kitten) while we were camping for a week. She always sends lots of pics and detailed updates in her check-ins. Her communication is awesome and she is just the sweetest human. We absolutely adore her! She also took in our mail and watered our plants. And this time we were having a bit of an ant problem due to the warm weather and she went above and beyond to help with that too. We love her and will be booking her for as long as she is doing pet sitting. Highly recommend!! ❤️”
“Samantha is very reliable. Takes pics of my cats, leaves a note on how they’re doing leaving me relieved when I’m away. I have used her in the past and will continue to use her for services.”
“Sam is the absolute best! I feel very comfortable leaving my dog and cat with her, and letting her into my home. She has amazing communication and sends me plenty of photos and videos during her visit! Will definitely be rebooking for any time that I’ll need her in the future”
“Jordan was very professional and took very good care of our timid, difficult cat. We felt very comfortable leaving her in Jordan’s care. Jordan went above our expectations.”
“Sarah was great checking in on my cats while I away. She kept saying he fed and took care of them and spent time with them so they didn't get lonely. I got photos and updates for each of the visits.”
“Emma and Trent did a great job caring for my two cats. They were happy when I returned and they were able to successfully get Delilah to take her meds every morning. I would use them again!”
“Molly is prompt, kind and a true cat lover. She was sensitive to my needs as well as Priscilla’s. This was important to me because it was my first time having a cat sitter. She is flexible and willing to accommodate small changes in the schedule. I would definitely hire her again.”
“Really appreciate Kimberly's dedication, going above and beyond to care for our cat. Much to our surprise they made our cat, who is normally very shy around people, so comfortable he was snuggled up next to her and even requested belly rubs!”
“Jenna took great care of Cheeto, giving him all the attention he craves. We hope to reply on her regularly to keep our needy little boy happy in our absence. ;)”
“Kayla did daily checks in for my three cats while I was away and everything went perfectly. We met up a few days before, and she sent me updates each day with pictures. She’s an excellent communicator! I look forward to working with her again. Thanks Kayla!”

“Jennifer is amazing!! It’s my first time using Rover for my puppy and she put all my nerves at ease. She sent daily pictures and updates which I really appreciated. Noodle can’t wait to go back! Thank you again Jennifer!”
“As always, Bo had a fun afternoon at John’s! To be honest, John is the only sitter I feel safe and comfortable leaving Bo . He KNOWS Bo, he KNOWS dogs , no matter what type or the personality of your dog , he knows how to handle them ! Bo is high energy, wants a lot of attention, loves to play …..and John figured him out after day one ! Not everyone can handle that combination…John 100% does . He is definitely a true dog whisperer and Bo adores him …”
“Theresa was a great dog sitter very attentive and caring. She sent updates, which I really appreciated, and my pup was clearly happy and well taken care of.She didn’t even want to leave when I picked her up! I would definitely use her again.”
About: I've always had a special connection with dogs. Ever since primary school, I volunteered to walk all my neighbors' dogs and would stay to play with them for hours—tug-of-war and frisbee were our favorites. I've walked dogs of all sizes, sometimes up to three at a time. Getting my own puppy was the best thing in the world for me, and I naturally have endless patience for animals. Throughout college, I walked and sat for my piano professor's dog for years—around the neighborhood, and I also drove him to dog parks and beaches. On top of that, I've volunteered at an animal shelter, cleaning dog and cat rooms and socializing with the animals. I currently can't have a dog of my own because I fly in and out for work. That's why I'm doing this part-time — it's never an assembly line for me. Each dog gets my full, individual attention, and I truly make friends with every one of them. I'm a sound designer and composer working on contract-based stage productions, which gives me a flexible schedule. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine — I walk dogs at least three times a day, feed them as many times as requested, and make sure they get plenty of playtime outside of my work hours. Since I'm not working a rigid 9-to-5, I can easily adjust my day around each dog's needs, whether that means extra cuddles, a longer walk, or a spontaneous trip to the dog park. Plus, because I fly in and out for work and can't have my own dog right now, caring for other people's dogs is something I genuinely look forward to and prioritize every single day. I live in a first-floor condo apartment in a neighborhood with lots of green areas — perfect for dogs who love quick potty breaks and longer sniffing walks. I let dogs free roam throughout my home and they're absolutely allowed on furniture. I treat every dog as if they were my own, which means lots of freedom, comfort, and attention. Since I do this part-time, I never have more than two unfamiliar dogs at once, so each dog gets a calm, focused environment. I'm extremely respectful of their space and routines — I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions to the letter, and I always leave things cleaner than I found them.
“We used rover for the first time and Donna made us feel quite at ease. She explained everything to us and we knew that our dog was in good hands. Will definitely use her again.”
“Amber did very good care for our golden retriever Daisy. She updated us with details and pictures about Daisy’s stay. Also Amber replied on any of our requests very promptly. We will be booking more services with her for our dog soon.”

“This was my fiancé's and I first time traveling since we got our puppy, Nilla, and we were super anxious about it. After checking out other options we decided to give rover a try and found Daniel. From the moment we met Daniel and Denise we felt a lot better, it was immediately clear that they love dogs and they love what they do, and they even gave us traveling advice! Dan is very knowledgeable when it comes to dogs and their behavior, I liked that because I knew that our pup would be in good hands. In order to get Nilla used to the place we decided do one day of doggy day care with them before her 7 day stay there and I am so glad we did, Denise sent me updates throughout the day and it was fun to see how happy Nilla was playing with other dogs, that made me feel 10x better about her 7 day stay there and I knew that she would be happy and most importantly safe. They day we dropped her off she immediately recognized the house, jumped out of the car and ran straight to Daniel, she didn't even look back when I said goodbye to her! During our vacation they sent us daily updates along with pictures and videos putting us at such ease knowing our pup was having fun and in good hands. Thanks to them we were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our pup! If you're looking for someone who will treat your fur baby as their own then your search ends here! I highly recommend Dan, this is coming from someone who cried when we booked the tickets to Amsterdam at the thought of leaving our pup with someone else.”

About: From reptiles to horses, i've been working in animal hospitals, hotels, petsitting and rescues for more than half my life. Love every type of animal and treat them always like my own. I have been in this industry for about 18years. It’s truly a passion of mine to ensure the best care is provided and to give owners peace of mind when they have to leave their pets or be able to help those who have never had to care for a hurt/sick fur baby. I have an American bully named Apex, a cat named Whiskey, 2 conures and a ball python. I am no stranger to the care and comfort needs of all breeds and species of animals. They are all loved and cared for diligently to make sure they feel at home and comfortable in any surrounding

About: Hi, I'm Jill! I'm a stay-at-home mom, Marine veteran, and lifelong dog lover. Dogs have been a part of my world for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is second nature to me. I am also a certified dog groomer, so I understand what it takes to keep pups looking and feeling their best. When your dog stays with me, they will be treated like one of my dachshunds who are friendly, playful, and used to having company. My goal is for every dog to feel like they are spending time with family- safe, happy, and loved. I am home most of the day and have a flexible schedule for drop-offs, pick-ups, or day care. Since I am around often, your dog will get plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision. I have a nice-sized fenced yard that is perfect for running around and playing fetch. There is a dog door for easy access to the yar throughout the day, so pups can stretch their legs whenever they like. Inside, dogs are part of the family- they can nap on comfy beds, lounge with me, and sleep in bed unless you prefer otherwise. My home is calm, cozy, and full of love.
About: I love all dogs! They are all so funny, each with their own fun personalities. I love to go for walks with the dogs, sometimes 2 at a time! When your pup is in my care my focus is on keeping them safe and happy! I am retired from working so I like to say that I am a stay at home dog Mom! When I am watching your dog, there is nothing more important to me than your fur baby’s safety and happiness. Since I am home full time I am available for your pup 24/7! I do occasionally leave the house but usually not longer than an hour or two. I have a large fenced in yard and a sweet, fun 2 year old Lab mix who loves to play with dogs of all ages and sizes. I have a 5 month old grand puppy and Reba loves playing with her!

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. From playful puppies and cuddly kittens to senior pets who need extra attention, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I work at a local Emergency Veterinary Center for more than 2 years. I have rode and cared for horses most of my life. I work part time and I have a flexible schedule to help care for your fur babies. I look forward to taking care of your treasured pets. I have 3 pets at home, 2 dogs and a cat. I care for them daily. I walk my dogs and I also have been active in dog training, with my dog. This helps me when I walk dogs not familiar to me.
“Ava helped me walk my pup while I was sick. She was very kind and attentive. She took photos of their walk and let me know important details! I will definitely be contacting Ava again for help with dog walking some time:)”
“John is a really great guy and is fantastic with our two dogs (2 Boxers), even taking the time to work on some training for our unruly 11 year old puppy. He is very prompt and courteous. Highly recommended to all.”
“I hit the jackpot when I booked Sarah. She is an absolute delight- so accommodating and caring. My dog took to her immediately. (I’m almost hesitant to rave too much about her because I selfishly want to keep her all to myself.) Sarah came to me after I had double knee replacement surgery, and naturally I was so worried about how I would care for my dog. I didn’t want to put him in a kennel, so she literally rescued both of us. Do not hesitate to book Sarah for any/all of your pet’s needs. She’s a gem!”
About: I had a cat when I was young which I took care of. Along with the cat, I’ve had various beta fish each living beyond expected life spans. When I was 17-19, I took care of my neighbor’s cat while they were on vacation. I’ve also helped take care of my grandmother’s dog for the past 5 years. I take her for walks and play with her. For the past few months, I’ve been volunteering at an animal shelter where my job is to clean the cat rooms and walk the dogs there. I’m currently a full time college student, but I will be available for breaks and over the summer. During breaks, I’m available anytime during the week depending on what days I’m home. During the summer, I have more open availability with any day being free depending on my internship. I’m very gentile whenever I work with animals, especially pets. I make sure an animal feels comfortable around me before getting them to do something. I build trust in the animal so that I can get them into a crate easily.
About: I’ve always possessed a deep love for animals and have grown up around pets my entire life. I have several years of hands-on experience working at a grooming salon, where I assisted with bathing, feeding, and caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I’ve also volunteered at local animal shelters, which helped me better understand dog behavior, body language, and each pet’s unique emotional needs. I’m patient, dependable, and committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I would be honored to care for your furry family member like they’re my own! 🐾 I recently graduated and am taking a gap year, pursuing additional courses as an aspiring physician assistant and working part-time in healthcare. My schedule is very flexible throughout the week, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and care to your pets. I’m generally available most weekdays and weekends, except Thursdays. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always take the time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and needs to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m attentive to body language, feeding schedules, medications if needed, and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free in their own environment. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind.

About: I’ve always had a love for animals and enjoy making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I understand that every dog has a different personality and routine, so I take the time to follow each owner’s instructions closely. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or just a calm companion, I’ll make sure they feel loved and cared for. I work from home, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. Since I’m home often, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods of time, and I can help keep them on their normal schedule so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. For house sitting, I’m also able to bring my work equipment with me, which allows me to stay with your pet while still working remotely and giving them consistent care and companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to keep their routine and environment as normal and comfortable as possible. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications if needed, crate routines, and any house rules. I always make sure doors, gates, leashes, and fenced areas are secure, and I pay close attention during walks and playtime to keep pets safe. I’m respectful of every client’s home and will treat both your pet and your space with care. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you feel comfortable while you’re away.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong love and experience with dogs. I’m 33 years old and have always had a dog in my home, so caring for them is second nature to me. For the past 8 years, I’ve been a dedicated dog sitter and walker, working with pups of all sizes, ages, and breeds. Whether it’s energetic puppies, strong large breeds, or senior dogs who need a gentler touch, I know how to adapt to their unique needs. I treat every dog as if they were my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while in my care. My priority is not just keeping tails wagging, but also giving you peace of mind knowing your pup is in trustworthy hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy it and make time for it. I’m currently taking classes to prepare for a nursing program, so I balance my schedule with studying, homework, and extra work on the side. Having pet care built into my week gives me a chance to step away from the books, stay active, and spend time doing something I love. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just giving a pet extra attention, I find that caring for animals is the perfect complement to my studies—it keeps me grounded, happy, and motivated. When I care for pets, my priority is making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable—whether that’s in my home or in a client’s home. I’ve stayed in clients’ homes for a week at a time, done drop-in visits, and taken dogs on walks, so I’m flexible to what each family needs. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow routines closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions—so pets stick to what’s familiar and feel at ease. I treat their home with the same respect as I would my own. I’m also very communicative and know how important updates are when you’re away. I check in regularly with photos, notes, and anything you’d like to know so you always feel connected and reassured. Families I’ve worked with know they can trust me to be reliable, caring, and attentive to every detail.

“Sherlock's enjoyed his stay! Glad he got along well with Oakley and Archer right off the bat. Kerri was so kind and was awesome with providing with pictures and updates every day.”
“Amber took a last minute booking for my elderly 15 yo beagle this past weekend. My dog is not the easiest with dementia, urinary incontinence, hard of hearing and paces a lot. Despite all of those things, Amber took my dog in and cared for her with ease and so mooch compassion and patience. I am so grateful for the care and would definitely recommend her and use her again in the future!”
“Vanessa was absolutely AMAZING! She provided daily updates, photos and bonus videos! Lola was taken care of and loved just as much as she is at home. We are using Vanessa for our other family trip at the end of this month and I can feel at ease knowing that she will be a responsive and reliable sitter!”
“Kristen was very accommodating to our shy rescue pup, Maizie. She got all the attention and was well looked after and I have booked Kristen to watch her for another stay.”
“John treats my dog like his own. John really seems to enjoy the time he has with Deuce. The funny thing was, Deuce hardly wanted to go home with me when I picked him up. Deuce wanted to continue to play. I don't have to worry at all when I leave Deuce with John.”
“Rachel and Henrik (and their two wonderful kids!) watched our two Goldendoodles for the weekend, and we couldn’t have had a better experience. From the start, it was clear this was a perfect fit—we did a meet-and-greet beforehand, and instantly felt comfortable. Their home is beautiful, clean, and has a great backyard where our dogs had plenty of space to run and play. More importantly, our dogs were treated like part of the family—they got tons of attention, snuggles, and care all weekend. We also really appreciated the frequent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind. When we dropped them off, our dogs were so excited they ran right in without hesitation—that says everything. You can truly tell how much Rachel and Henrik love dogs and care for them as their own. One of the nicest families we’ve met, and we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were so well cared for. We will absolutely be using them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional dog care.”
“Jennifer was great watching our Max! I'm always nervous about leaving him somewhere new but he settled in pretty quickly with her family. She sent over 100 pictures while we were away for 6 days which I truly appreciated! I will be recommending her to anyone and everyone I meet.”
“The best dog sitter I have met. Daisy was so happy with them. They were so attentive to her and always sending me pictures of all the fun and activities they had with daisy. I will gladly have her as my dog sitter for daisy whenever I need and would definitely recommend to anybody who needs a dog sitter. Thank you so much Veronique you are the best. ☺️😬”
“Our dog Blanche had a great stay with Theresa and her family! We were given at least two updates a day with pictures. We will definitely book again for a future stay.”
“Trisha was great, she kept us in the loop with pictures and texts the whole evening. It was the first time we left our dog Jax who’s 1-1/2 old boxer with tons of energy. Thank you Trisha and we will definitely leave Jax with again and again.”
“Samantha has taken such great care of our fur babies. She is caring and loves them like they were her own pets. I can always count on her to give them the attention they need. They are both senior dogs and need special attention and care. I would not hesitate to use her when we need her services. I would highly recommend her any time.”
“We left our family Dog, Luna, with Alex for 9 nights and he did a great job! Alex sent a short video and photo every morning to keep us assured that Luna was having a great time and was doing well! I would highly recommend Alex and wouldn't hesitate to use him again!”
“Amazing family home, Diana and Mike are perfect sitters and the peace of mind they provided with the constant pics and updates truly made my trip that much better. Highly recommend!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs. I currently own four dogs: two adult Belgian Malinois, a German Shepherd puppy, and a senior Shih Tzu mix. I have crate trained and potty trained multiple puppies and am familiar with the time, patience, and consistency required for successful training. Through caring for both high-energy working breeds and senior dogs, I have experience managing different exercise needs, routines, temperaments, and levels of care. I am committed to providing a safe, structured, and positive environment for every dog in my care. I am home most of the time and provide full-time care for the dogs in my home. Because I am available throughout the day, dogs receive regular supervision. I have a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely go outside for potty breaks and exercise. I am comfortable reinforcing crate training when needed and believe crates are a valuable tool for safety and routine. My own dogs are crate trained and are crated when they cannot be directly supervised to ensure their safety and prevent unwanted behaviors. I provide a structured, safe, and supervised environment while making sure each dog receives plenty of attention, care, and opportunities to play and relax.
“Jillian is excellent, caring, thoughtful, and understanding!! Our pets truly loved being part of her family, and came home just as they left, and in good spirits!! We're very grateful to have found someone like Jillian for our furbabies!!”
“Highly recommend Yaina for dog boarding. We had a very positive experience with the whole process from start to finish. Our dogs came home happy and healthy after boarding for over a week, and we received daily updates and pictures. It was a pleasure dealing with Yaina, and we will absolutely look to board our dogs with her again in the future. I would give more than 5 stars if possible.”
