“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.”
“Highly recommend. Johnathon has a lovely space where my pups had a blast. Loved the pictures he sent of them while I was away at my wedding. My Luna is an anxious dog and yet she did great. Definitely would rebook from here on out.”
“Sandra was amazing with our gizmo the day she had her. She took excellent care of him. Shared updates and photos, as this was our first time using this service. We are so very pleased and happy and will be booking her service again hands down. She’s very compassionate and loving.”
“First time using Rover and super apprehensive… but Alexis made the experience of leaving my puppy behind super comforting. I was kept updated on Khloe and what she was doing. Comments throughout the day which I appreciated. I definitely recommend Alexis and will use her again and again.”
“We’ve left our pup Soup here for daycare and overnight boarding and each time he comes back tired and happy! He gets great outdoor play time with other dogs and cuddle time with the humans. We will definitely be using their services again.”
“This was the first time using Rover. I will absolutely trust Dawn to watch my Lily again. Dawn was understanding with me and my fears of leaving my pup. Her family was very welcoming as well. She went above and beyond on making her home pet friendly. I received many photos and videos to set my mind at ease. If 6 stars was option I would give it to her!”
“Daniel took very good care of my boy. He was not used to being away from me, but I feel like he felt like home. Daniel sent me photos and daily updates. I do not live in the area, but I definitely recommend Daniel.”

“Francesca and John were wonderful! Buddy did very well during his stay. This was his first time ever boarding and I was nervous about how he would do since he is an older dog. They kept me updated all the time and assured me he was relaxed and not anxious. So glad we found them!”
“Beckie and her family were the perfect home away from home for our high-energy 2yo German Shepherd. She has a beautiful and massive back yard and provided photo updates throughout the stay. We’ll happily trust Beckie with Echo on future trips and highly recommend her!”
“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.”
“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”
“Jennifer was an excellent sitter! She sent lots of updates and photos, and it was clear that Juliette was well cared for and having a great time. She even got her a little lamb toy, which was so sweet and unexpected. Would recommend her completely!”

“Kim was very quick to respond to me whenever I wanted to check in and see how Ryder was doing. She was very friendly and welcoming. She sent me pictures and made me feel comfortable that my baby was in good hands. I would highly recommend her. This was my first time using a dog sitter and I am very pleased with the entire experience. Thank you again Kim for everything. I would use her again if I need a sitter.”

“Paula was excellent. The cats warmed up to her in no time and she kept us updated everyday with pictures. The house was left very clean and neat. I would highly rebook and recommend her to anyone needing pet/house sitting.”
About: I've grown up taking care of multiple dogs and cats my entire life! I love playing with animals and giving them lots of attention. I enjoy taking dogs on sniff walks and playing mentally enriching games with them! I have often taken care of family and friends' animals throughout the years. I am reliable, punctual, and have a very flexible schedule! I recently moved back into the area and don't have a set schedule, so I have lots of availability!

“Kamber took incredible care of our two kitty cats on very short notice! She was very communicative, fast to respond, and empathetic to our fur babies. I would absolutely book her quality services again!”
About: As an experienced and long time foster, I have cared for dogs in my home with varying needs and personalities. I provide lots of affection, as well as necessary structure, to ensure a balanced and fun stay for all. I also have a sweet, Boxer-mix Zoe (50 lbs), and a Sato from Puerto Rico named Ellie (15 lbs), who love their foster siblings, and boarding mates & love to play, cuddle, and bring them out of their shell, especially little dogs. I have a few years of experience with rescue dogs, including puppy mill dogs, and street rescues, because of that I'm very confident working with shy, nervous dogs that need a little more TLC. In my personal time, I work as the social media coordinator for a dog rescue, and walk dogs for a friend's dog company.
“We couldn’t ask for a better cat sitter! Lillie is incredibly communicative and always sends the most thoughtful, funny, and sweet updates — which means so much when you’re away and missing your kitties! She gives them tons of love, playtime, and attention. She’s also really attentive and quick to notice any changes in behavior or eating/drinking habits, which we really appreciate. We always feel completely at ease knowing our cats are in Lillie’s care!”
“Sara did a great job stopping in to give Chai her medicine and even came a day early to learn my way of administering. Highly recommend Sara to anyone looking for a cat lover who will treat your pet as their own.”
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.
“My first time ever leaving my to 2 cats with someone besides family to go away on vacation for 2 weeks. She took very good care of my girls and sent me photos along the way. I appreciate everything you did and hope I am still taken on as a client someday despite my very late pick up as I had advised her before I left. Late flights coming from city are the worst, ugh.”
About: From overnight stays and walks to playtime and cuddles, family and friends have entrusted me with the care of their fur baby. Being able to work with cats and dogs on a daily basis as a veterinary assistant continues to help me accumulate various skills to work with animals of all temperaments and ages! I’m currently working part time so I’d have flexible time to spend with your precious pups whether during the week or during the weekend ! Pups are off if their routine is off so if you have a specific schedule or way of doing things I can assure you I will stick to the game plan.
“Not only is Jade Marie extremely respectful, she was responsive to my partner and I while we were away for a week-long vacation. She made a personal connection with our two cats by playing with them and also kept their area clean and tidy. I would highly recommend Jade Marie to other pet owners seeking help!”
About: I grew up with cats and understand that they’re all unique. I care very deeply about animals and have a special connection with cats. I have plenty of experience having had 4 cats of my own in my adult life!
“Kacey visited my senior cat twice daily as I traveled abroad for a week. My cat suffers terribly from separation anxiety and I have never been away from her for so long. My cat’s face is very expressive and from the live photos Kacey sent, I took great relief in seeing my cat content and cozy with her there hanging out and keeping her company (and full of treats). Kacey was warm and kind and reliable. I am so grateful to have found her on Rover. I feel a newfound ability to travel without guilt!”
About: I have years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I provide calm, reliable, and loving care while keeping pets comfortable in their routine. Owners trust me for walks, feeding, playtime, and overnight stays, knowing their pets are safe and genuinely cared for. I plan my schedule around feedings, walks, playtime, and check-ins to ensure your pet receives consistent care, supervision, and companionship throughout the day and overnight. I always put safety and comfort first. I follow each pet’s routine and owner instructions closely, keep doors and leashes secure, and provide attentive supervision. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and focused on keeping pets calm, comfortable, and happy in their familiar environment.
About: Hi there.. I have always owned a dog in my life. I have worked at an animal shelter for 2 1/2 years taking care of the dogs. I have been around most breeds and personality types. I am calm and patient around dogs and know how to read their body language. But I also love to be goofy and playful with them when the environment is right. I believe every dog is an individual and what might work for one dog won’t always work for another. I have some dog training under my belt from working with other trainers and taking classes but I’m not certified yet. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to reach out! I am currently working part time at an animal shelter so I have plenty of time to dedicate to working with your pups! I currently only offer dog walking and stop ins but will eventually start boarding. I currently don’t offer boarding but I will eventually! At a client’s home I’ll make to gather all the details from the owner to ensure an easy transition for both them and their animals. The last thing I want is an owner to worry while they’re away! I’ll treat your animals like they’re my own.
“Kristina did an amazing job with our cat Maxie! Although he is very shy and skittish, he warmed up to Kristina almost immediately. She followed our instructions perfectly and actually went above and beyond to make Maxie feel comfortable. The proof is in the pictures she took of herself and Maxie together. He looks completely relaxed and happy. We would not hesitate to ask Kristina back again! She’s amazing.”

“Jayne was an exceptional puppy sitter. She treated and loved Daisy as if she were her own. She sent photos to help pass the time and was overly accommodating. I will most definitely bring Daisy back for another visit soon. Thank you!”

“This was my first time leaving my dog for boarding and using the Rover app.Jonathon went above and beyond to take care of my dog I even ran out of food and he offered to run to the store to grab some more. Throughout the stay he updated me and sent pictures easing some of my anxiety. I now know I have someone that I can rely on and my dog will be taking good care of and I will be using.Jonathon for my future boarding needs! I’ve also recommended him to my friends as well.”

About: As a lifelong animal lover who has always shared my home with pets, I understand how important it is to know your dog is in caring and attentive hands. Your dog will be lovingly cared for and closely supervised on our peaceful 8-acre property, complete with a beautiful creek and plenty of space to explore. We provide lots of toys and treats to keep your dog happy and engaged, and our friendly miniature schnauzer enjoys making new canine friends (after a little welcoming bark or two!). Our free-ranging chickens also add an extra bit of entertainment and curiosity for visiting dogs. You can feel confident that your dog will be safe, comfortable, and well cared for in our cozy home, where they will receive plenty of attention, affection, and fun throughout their stay. I am home full-time after retiring from a 30-year career in corporate IT, which allows me to devote my full attention to caring for dogs providing constant supervision, companionship, and personalized care, ensuring your dog receives the attention, affection, and exercise they deserve. We have a spacious 8-acre property with long, groomed walking paths where dogs can explore and enjoy the outdoors, typically leashed for safety. Our back property is exceptionally private, featuring wide, flat open fields with no immediate neighbors and located well away from the road, providing a peaceful and secure environment. We also have a fenced play area where dogs can safely enjoy off-leash play and exercise. Inside, dogs are treated as part of the family and are welcome throughout our roomy and comfortable home. At night, they can relax and sleep in cozy dog beds located in quiet spare rooms, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home during their stay.
“Dawn was absolutely amazing with my 2 furs I left with her for the day. She made me feel very comfortable and my pups. She was so sweet to them. Sent a lot of pictures and videos. She was very kind and loving. My girls Hazel and Cocoa came back SO tired and didn't want to leave. Made everyone very happy :) 10/10 definitely 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!”
“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!”
About: As a doctor, I’ve spent years caring for people of all ages and I bring that same compassion, patience, and attention to detail to the pets I look after. What sets me apart is my medical background and calm, caring approach to both routine and unexpected situations. I’m comfortable helping with pets who need a bit of extra attention, like seniors, those on medication, or anxious animals, always ensuring they feel safe and cared for. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was about 10 years old, when I started helping my neighbors with their pets while they were away. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments — from playful puppies who need consistency and training, to older dogs who require gentler care and medication on schedule. In the past, I’ve also trained many dogs, focusing on consistency, positive reinforcement, and gentle play to help them learn and have fun. Whether your pet needs structured walks, quiet companionship, or a steady hand during medication time, I’ll treat them like one of my own family members. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m an early riser and make time every day for walks, play, and check-ins. My work schedule is flexible, allowing me to plan visits around each pet’s needs—whether it’s morning exercise, midday drop-ins, or evening companionship. Caring for animals is a relaxing and rewarding part of my week. I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I give my own. I follow your instructions carefully, maintain a clean environment, and keep pets safe with close supervision indoors and secure leashes outdoors. I focus on helping pets feel comfortable and calm, especially when their families are away, so they always feel cared for and at ease.
“I loved the daycare for our dog (LOVE). Sandra and her husband took very good care of her and treated her like their own and made her feel like home the whole entire time there. I was at ease knowing she was in good hands and loved that they have been in touch the whole time sending photos and videos of her at all times. She looked so happy and not crying like she usually does away from us, I would 100% recommend them both. I truly say they both are to trust and are great dog people to all because of how they were with mine. I will definitely be booking with them again for sure ! thank you again for everything 😌 very satisfied !”
About: Hi! I’m a stay at home mom who absolutely loves animals and being home makes me the perfect person to give your pup lots of attention throughout the day 🤍 I’ve been caring for pets for over 10 years and grew up with my Yorkie, Asia, who lived to 13. Being a dog mom taught me how important it is to know your fur baby is in safe, loving hands. I’m patient, attentive, and experienced with both puppies and senior dogs, including giving oral medication if needed. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles, I make sure every pup feels comfortable and cared for. My home is cozy with a backyard for safe play, and I have a sweet cat named Woody. I treat every pet like family and always try to stick to their routine so they feel right at home. I’d love to set up a meet & greet beforehand so you can feel confident your pup is happy, safe, and loved 💓 I’m a full time stay at home mom to two precious little girls! and with that your pup will always have company! I balance caring for my little one with walks, playtime, and snuggles for your dog, making sure every pet gets attention and love throughout the day. My kids also have a love for animals as well and are taught how to interact with different animals! My home is cozy and safe, with a dedicated area for your pup to relax and feel at home where I'll have anything your pup needs (You're welcome to provide anything that makes them comfortable as well). I also have a backyard where they can run, play, and get their zoomies out safely. Your fur baby will have a space that’s loving, fun, and stress-free.
“At first, I struggled with the thought of leaving my grand dog (Zyla is my daughter’s dog), because Zyla really is treated like a family member and Zyla is our everything but Monica was wonderful. Monica sent multiple photos throughout the day which reassured us that Zyla was ok. From the photos I could tell that Zyla was having a blast. Zyla made a new furry friend and two human friends. Monica not only sent me photos but updated me throughout the day on Zyla’s activities which eased my worry as well. I can tell Zyla had the time of her life because she fell fast asleep on her ride home. Monica made Zyla’s first doggy daycare experience wonderful for both Zyla and her owners. I am definitely scheduling more future dates with Monica for both doggie daycare and boarding.”
“Absolutely wonderful person and my pup LOVES her! He is a fairly big dog (German Shepard) and she was great with him. He has a very nice space to run around and play, and I can tell by his excitement and body language that he feels comfortable there. 10/10 would book again!”
About: My first pet ever was a bunny named Einstein. I then had a parakeet, Guinea pigs, cats, more bunnies and of course a few dogs throughout the course of my life. I quite literally squeal every time I see a cute dog. My friend recommended this to me because she recognized my love for dogs. I am currently working full time and on my days off I’m hustling by doing DoorDash, or providing Content Day services to other creators in the neighborhood. On a day where I close at 1:30pm I can fit in a dog walk for a few hours in the morning. If I open I have time after work to pick up more work. I treat my pets as an extension of my heart. Providing love, attention and affection to dogs really warms my heart. Fulfilling their lovely doggo needs is a privilege.
“Kaitlyn was absolutely amazing! We last minute booked and she was so accommodating! She made sure to update me with pictures and messages and treated my pup so week! We'd be thrilled to book with her again!!!”

“I'm so lucky to have Kamber as Bernie's dog walker! She's always on time and reliable, and she leaves my house neat and tidy. Bernie adores spending time with her and loves when her daughter comes along for extra playtime. Kamber is fantastic at taking care of Bernie. She's super careful and always looks for potential dangers, like other dogs or cars. Plus, she's been helping me train Bernie to be more comfortable around other pups when we're out for walks. I can't say enough good things about Kamber's communication skills. She's excellent at keeping me updated on everything with Bernie and is always on top of scheduling our appointments. I trust her completely and am happy to have her as our dog walker!”

About: I grew up with lots of animals in my house my whole entire life. Everything from birds, reptiles, fish to basic ones such as cats and dogs. In summer I was on farm with horses, cows, pigs, chickens and much more. I have been watching dogs for as long as I remember. Both in my house as well as other homes. I do rescues for a company that specializes in pit bulls. I love to spend time, play, teach and get to know the four legged friends. Life without cats, dogs and other furry animals would be really boring. It is an honor to be there to take care of your pet when you are in need. I'm happy to help with last minute emergencies.
“Sara was great with our dog Jude! She clearly loves and knows how to work with animals. I appreciated her quick communication and thoughtful questions leading up to her first time walking Jude. We’d love to work with her again.”
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.
About: From overnight stays and walks to playtime and cuddles, family and friends have entrusted me with the care of their fur baby. Being able to work with cats and dogs on a daily basis as a veterinary assistant continues to help me accumulate various skills to work with animals of all temperaments and ages! I’m currently working part time so I’d have flexible time to spend with your precious pups whether during the week or during the weekend ! Pups are off if their routine is off so if you have a specific schedule or way of doing things I can assure you I will stick to the game plan.
About: I have years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I provide calm, reliable, and loving care while keeping pets comfortable in their routine. Owners trust me for walks, feeding, playtime, and overnight stays, knowing their pets are safe and genuinely cared for. I plan my schedule around feedings, walks, playtime, and check-ins to ensure your pet receives consistent care, supervision, and companionship throughout the day and overnight. I always put safety and comfort first. I follow each pet’s routine and owner instructions closely, keep doors and leashes secure, and provide attentive supervision. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and focused on keeping pets calm, comfortable, and happy in their familiar environment.
About: Hi there.. I have always owned a dog in my life. I have worked at an animal shelter for 2 1/2 years taking care of the dogs. I have been around most breeds and personality types. I am calm and patient around dogs and know how to read their body language. But I also love to be goofy and playful with them when the environment is right. I believe every dog is an individual and what might work for one dog won’t always work for another. I have some dog training under my belt from working with other trainers and taking classes but I’m not certified yet. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to reach out! I am currently working part time at an animal shelter so I have plenty of time to dedicate to working with your pups! I currently only offer dog walking and stop ins but will eventually start boarding. I currently don’t offer boarding but I will eventually! At a client’s home I’ll make to gather all the details from the owner to ensure an easy transition for both them and their animals. The last thing I want is an owner to worry while they’re away! I’ll treat your animals like they’re my own.
“Natisha arrived on time and was friendly. My dog was a little shy at first (this is not unusual) and wanted to head home early, but Natisha extended the time with my approval and he was fine! This was my first time using the app and Natisha was helpful with answering my questions.”

“First time using Rover and super apprehensive… but Alexis made the experience of leaving my puppy behind super comforting. I was kept updated on Khloe and what she was doing. Comments throughout the day which I appreciated. I definitely recommend Alexis and will use her again and again.”
“We’ve left our pup Soup here for daycare and overnight boarding and each time he comes back tired and happy! He gets great outdoor play time with other dogs and cuddle time with the humans. We will definitely be using their services again.”
“Chester was great. He sent us many pictures and videos of our puppy. He had a great play area setup. We felt like our dog was in great hands. I would strongly recommend him to anyone looking or a reliable dog sitter!”
“Kristen was very accommodating and my pup seemed very happy in her home. My dog is usually very anxious at first but she calmed down quickly with Kristen and her sweet dog Jackson. Will definitely use her again.”
“Francesca and John were wonderful! Buddy did very well during his stay. This was his first time ever boarding and I was nervous about how he would do since he is an older dog. They kept me updated all the time and assured me he was relaxed and not anxious. So glad we found them!”
“Beckie and her family were the perfect home away from home for our high-energy 2yo German Shepherd. She has a beautiful and massive back yard and provided photo updates throughout the stay. We’ll happily trust Beckie with Echo on future trips and highly recommend her!”
“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.”
“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”
“Jennifer was an excellent sitter! She sent lots of updates and photos, and it was clear that Juliette was well cared for and having a great time. She even got her a little lamb toy, which was so sweet and unexpected. Would recommend her completely!”

Throughout my visit, I will keep you informed of your pet's well-being, sending you updates and photos so you can see how your furry friend is doing. Above all, I will treat your pet with the same care and attention that I would give to my own pets, ensuring they feel loved and well-cared for while you're away.
“Kim was very quick to respond to me whenever I wanted to check in and see how Ryder was doing. She was very friendly and welcoming. She sent me pictures and made me feel comfortable that my baby was in good hands. I would highly recommend her. This was my first time using a dog sitter and I am very pleased with the entire experience. Thank you again Kim for everything. I would use her again if I need a sitter.”
“My dog Griffin has been to other Rover sitters and this was the first time he showed me that he was completely comfortable from the moment he walked in the door at our meet and greet! He walked around the place like it was his own home! Amy and her family took care of Griffin for a 2 night stay. I was so happy he would be able to play with her kids and the other dogs there, as he loves attention from all beings. I will look to see if Amy is available any time Griffin needs sitting again! Thanks again, Amy!”
“Sara was wonderful. Our first time using a dog sitter and I was anxious about the experience. Would the boys behave, or would the sitter really give them attention? Well yes and definitely yes. The experience was great for us and the doggos. Our dogs are a large breed and a giant breed. Sara didn't have any qualms about their sizes and we were able to relax and enjoy a weekend away. Would absolutely use Sara's services again. Highly recommend.”
“So glad we connected with Hila! We could tell right away that our puppy would be well cared for - she was comfortable with Hila and Ruby immediately. We appreciated all the communication and photos. We'll definitely be back!”
“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!”
“Matthew and his family were amazing sitters. Our dog has serious health issues and Matt totally put us at ease while sending us regular pictures/updates on our pooch. Can’t recommend them enough.”
