“So thankful to have found someone for our Keira. Morgan responded quickly for a short notice weekend trip and was quick to respond to my inquiries while we were gone as to how Keira was doing. We usually use a local kennel but have found that she comes home sad. She needs a lot of human interaction. Without her pack, she gets lonely. She came home much happier this time. Morgan and her family obviously made Keira feel very at home.”


“Carla was great! I’ve never left my dogs with anyone other than family, so I was honestly really nervous. Now that I have Daisy, my 2.5-year-old rescue, I needed to find someone I could trust. My vet recommended Rover, which helped, and after reading Carla’s reviews I felt much better. She was super communicative before the booking, and when I dropped Daisy off and saw the fenced-in yard (something she doesn’t get at home), I knew she’d love it. Carla also had a separate room set up for her to sleep in, which I really appreciated. When I picked Daisy up, she was happy and relaxed—it was obvious she had a great time. I’ll definitely be booking with Carla again. So glad I found someone I can trust. Thanks, Carla!”

“Cindy was great and really put my mind at ease when she looked after my dog, Roxi. We had never boarded her before and were nervous to leave her alone with someone she didn't know. Cindy first did a meet & greet beforehand to make sure Roxi would be comfortable around her & her pets. Then after I booked her, she sent me multiple pics and updates daily and assured me Roxi was doing fine which I so appreciated. I will definitely be using her next time I need a sitter! Great experience!”

“Sujanna was great to Sidney and great to work with!! She sent multiple updates and pictures every day. I could tell that Sidney was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Sujanna as a dog sitter and look forward to using her again.”

“Meeting with Loida, I knew that Charlie would be in good hands. You can tell that she really loves dogs and that they come first in her home :) Charlie had plenty of space to play, a couch to sleep on, and a deck to get some air. Would definitely use her again. ”

“Fiona is awesome and very accommodating. As an overprotective pet parent,she felt very trustworthy early on. Fiona kept us informed and sent lots of pics.

“Jennifer took great care of my black lab, Finnley for a few days while we were away for a long weekend at a family wedding. I don’t leave him often, so finding a local sitter that I felt good about took some research. I found Jennifer through Rover and saw great reviews. I appreciated getting photos while we were away to see that he was having a good time as well:-).”

“Monica and Kelvin were great to work with. They sent photos and updates of my dogs for the few days they had them. When I picked my boys up they seemed well taken care of, clean and happy.”

“Julia was terrific! She showed up for a last minute request. She was friendly, prompt and flexible. My dog was very comfortable with her at the outset.

They’ll always be safe in my care.
About: I am an outdoorsy person. I am fun and athletic. I love going for walks to get exercise. I have had dogs in my house all my life. I am very comfortable taking care of dogs. I have always been responsible for walking and feeding all of the dogs in the house. I love playing with dog whether it be fetch or tug o war I am up for all games. I love all breed of dogs. I have had many different breeds in my home from husky to old English sheep dog to a shih tzu. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to play with your pup. I am available for boarding, dog walking and drop ins whenever you need me. I have a big back yard and a quiet neighborhood so I can provide plenty of exercise for your fur baby. I also have 2 children who love dogs and can’t wait to play with them as well.
About: I have over 16 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. I’ve supported dogs through daily care, feeding routines, long walks, playtime, medication administration, and providing comfort while their owners are away. I’m highly intuitive, attentive, and patient, making animals feel safe, calm, and cared for in their own environment. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I take pride in adapting my care to meet their individual needs. Whether it’s an energetic pup who loves adventure or a more sensitive pet who needs a gentle presence, I create a nurturing, reliable experience for both pets and their owners. I offer a flexible schedule and am available for mornings, afternoons, evenings, and overnight care. I’m open to weekday and weekend bookings and can accommodate consistent routines or last-minute requests when needed. I provide an attentive, respectful care in clients’ homes, following routines closely, maintaining a calm environment, and ensuring pets feel safe, loved, comfortable, and secure.
About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since I was a teen. I would volunteer to care for pets all the time. I have taken care of all kinds of pets such as dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs, salamander bearded dragon and chickens. Tell me what their needs are and I will make sure fur baby is well taken care of. It’s my responsibility to make sure that each fur baby is happy and safe. I know how important dogs are to our lives, so it's my duty to make sure that your fur baby gets to experience the same kind of love and care that they're used to at home. When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It's a great way to make sure that we're all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. It gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your fur baby and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it's always great to chat with owners to learn more about your fur baby. I am available to care for your fur baby all day as my main focus is caring for fur babies! I work from my home part-time so I’m always available to provide love and attention to your fur baby. I have a large fenced in yard with plenty of room to play and 1 dog to keep your fur baby company. If needed, I have the ability to crate your fur baby.
About: Hi! I’m Ryan, and I’m dedicated to giving your dog the best part of their day. Whether your pup needs a high-energy power walk to burn off excess steam or a steady, relaxed stroll around the neighborhood, I tailor every walk to fit your dog's age, energy level, and daily routine. I know how important peace of mind is when leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I pride myself on reliability, clear communication, and keeping your dog’s safety as my top priority. Every service comes with detailed updates, GPS route tracking, and plenty of photos so you know exactly how their walk went! I currently work full-time as a bartender and sales distributor for a brewery. I typically work thursday-sunday. With my days off, I spend most of my time being active whether that's working out, walking or hiking. Adding in some dogs to walk would fit in perfectly to my lifestyle and would be something i always look forward to! I have a fenced in yard in which the dogs can run freely. With a potential client's home, a fenced in yard or invisible fence would be ideal to assure the safety of the dogs.

About: I have been walking an awesome dog almost daily, he is a very energetic and adorable 8 year old Pitbull/Boxer/Rhodesian Ridgeback rescue mix named Chewy and I have loved every minute. He has taught me how important it is that dogs get their daily walks and experience adventure! Looking to help other pet owners give their dog a hopeful moment in their day by getting outside - rain or shine! I’m currently working part-time, and I am incredibly flexible. I have a very reliable, pet friendly, Subaru that can drive in any weather. I am the type of person that you can text me an hour before and I will be there! Always happy to help in a pinch. I respect all spaces and homes the same. I understand owning pets can be messy and I’m not afraid to step up and help calm the storm however I can. I do not mind showing up to a home to help care for a pet, happy to help in any way I can!

“So thankful to have found someone for our Keira. Morgan responded quickly for a short notice weekend trip and was quick to respond to my inquiries while we were gone as to how Keira was doing. We usually use a local kennel but have found that she comes home sad. She needs a lot of human interaction. Without her pack, she gets lonely. She came home much happier this time. Morgan and her family obviously made Keira feel very at home.”


“Carla was great! I’ve never left my dogs with anyone other than family, so I was honestly really nervous. Now that I have Daisy, my 2.5-year-old rescue, I needed to find someone I could trust. My vet recommended Rover, which helped, and after reading Carla’s reviews I felt much better. She was super communicative before the booking, and when I dropped Daisy off and saw the fenced-in yard (something she doesn’t get at home), I knew she’d love it. Carla also had a separate room set up for her to sleep in, which I really appreciated. When I picked Daisy up, she was happy and relaxed—it was obvious she had a great time. I’ll definitely be booking with Carla again. So glad I found someone I can trust. Thanks, Carla!”

“Cindy was great and really put my mind at ease when she looked after my dog, Roxi. We had never boarded her before and were nervous to leave her alone with someone she didn't know. Cindy first did a meet & greet beforehand to make sure Roxi would be comfortable around her & her pets. Then after I booked her, she sent me multiple pics and updates daily and assured me Roxi was doing fine which I so appreciated. I will definitely be using her next time I need a sitter! Great experience!”


About: I was a mama to my Olde English Bulldogge boy Lolek for 11 years. I currently own a 2 year old Bull Terrier female named Koko and a 15 month old Cockapoo named Nala. I also have 5 chickens and 6 ducks and love to take care of animals as a homeschool mama. I homeschool my kids so I have a very flexible schedule. I am available during the week as well as the weekend. I only my be unavailable for services between 5pm-7pm as I may be taking my kids to extracurricular activities. I have 2 dogs at home so I welcome pets that get along with other animals. I have a 1.7 acre unfenced yard and love walks in my neighborhood and playtime in my yard. My dogs are crated during the night and when I am not home. I welcome pets that sleep in the crate during the night but also can accommodate well trained sleepers that need a bed or sofa. I can train your pup with simple commands and can give a bath as needed (for extra cost). I do have a dog kennel outside that I can use to let the pets I care for safely run around and play with each other.
“Fiona is awesome and very accommodating. As an overprotective pet parent,she felt very trustworthy early on. Fiona kept us informed and sent lots of pics. Titan really likes her also and he ran right in when we dropped him off. I would 100% recommend Fiona to anyone looking for a sitter that gives the family experience to your furbaby!”

“Jennifer took great care of my black lab, Finnley for a few days while we were away for a long weekend at a family wedding. I don’t leave him often, so finding a local sitter that I felt good about took some research. I found Jennifer through Rover and saw great reviews. I appreciated getting photos while we were away to see that he was having a good time as well:-).”

“Monica and Kelvin were great to work with. They sent photos and updates of my dogs for the few days they had them. When I picked my boys up they seemed well taken care of, clean and happy.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Leib as our dog sitter! He was caring, responsible, and clearly loves animals. We felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in such good hands, and the updates and pictures were so appreciated. Our dog came home happy and well cared for. Leib truly went above and beyond, and we would absolutely recommend him!”

About: Hey there Dog parents! I have been around animals starting at a very young age. So basically im obsessed with them. I was always the designated trainer for the new pups. And im pretty good at it. Whenever visiting family or friends you can always find me with the dogs. Family and friends have always trusted me with their furry family members. Wether your on vacation or simply your day is overloaded, I'm happy to offer my services to ease your day! Getting an early start on the day during the week with your pups in the morning works with my schedule. If early morning doesn't work with you, I'm also available late afternoon during the week. My schedule isn't firm so if you have any special requests, I would love to work with you and figure something out! I will always put your fur baby’s needs first. Watching their body language is something that I always look out for. Making you and your pup comfortable is what I strive for.
