“Madison was great. She kept me informed on how Milo was doing. Milo had an awesome time with her. I will definitely be using her again. She treated Milo like one of her own.”

“Summer took great care of Lemmy! We got regular photos, she did a great job with his meds, and she was very patient with us in our first time using Rover. Summer, her family, and her own pets were great to our temperamental little chihuahua. Can’t thank her enough!”

“Laura was great. She kept us informed with text messages and photos. It was the first time we were separated from our dog. Laura alleviated all our fears. We’ll definitely use her again!”

“This was my first time using Rover and a dog sitter and it could not have gone better. Jane was excellent and sent me daily updates and photos. I had always used the bougie dog boarding places previously and my puppers would always come home stressed. This time, with Jane, it was completely different. They were stress free and relaxed. I would absolutely request dog sitting from Jane again. Thanks so much!!”


“Stephanie and her family took amazing care of my dog Mac(aroni)! I brought Mac for one night in February to make sure she would be comfortable for her longer stay in March. When we arrived in March to drop her off for an 11-night stay, Mac was thrilled to see Stephanie and her family! That was very reassuring. We will definitely be booking with Stephanie again in the future. Thank you!”


“Kimberly was great! She was communicative from the get go and flexible when a mishap on our trip and caused some delays. Hank enjoyed his stay very much, and we will definitely be using her again!”

“I wish i could give her 10 stars! She is so good with my Charlie. Sends me updates and pictures throughout each day and helps calm my anxiety. When Charlie sees her she goes wild. I know that my little doggie loves her and she is safe when she is with her. She is the absolute best!”

In others homes i will respect their space and maintain a clean environment while I love and care for their pets
“Josie took this booking REALLY last minute (like 6 am day of) after we got delayed flying home. She stopped in before she went to work and made sure everyone had food and was okay. Her flexibility to fit this into her schedule was wonderful and helped us out so much. We love her taking care of our cats and the cats love her even more!”


“She kept us updated on Iris all weekend and was super flexible with a last minute reservation. We could tell from the pictures Iris was getting all the love and attention she wanted while with her!”

“Chelsea was great with our dog, Donny! We boarded Donny at Chelsea’s house while we were out of town. Chelsea was quick to respond to texts, very friendly, and professional . She offered to pick up and drop off Donny, which was very helpful. Donny had a great stay and was well cared for and happy. I definitely recommend Chelsea! We will use her services again in the future.”

About: I offer over 13 years of hands-on experience within the performance horse industry and have been formally employed as a dedicated horse caretaker and groom since 2019. As an Equine Science major with a background working as a veterinary receptionist, I bring an advanced understanding of equine wellness, handling, and behavioral needs. Whether managing daily stable routines, monitoring herd health, or ensuring top-tier care for performance horses, I provide highly dependable, professional, and knowledgeable oversight for your animals. I have had personal experience with multiple dog breeds, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, turtles, and fish. I’m currently working a part-time job that is 5 minutes from my house, so I’ll be close to my home at all times and have flexibility with my schedule. I have home with land ranging at 9 acres that is in the county and away from other people. I also have a 3 year old female Aussiedoodle who is great with children & other dogs/animals, and is also updated on vaccines.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I have hands-on experience with daily feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I’ve also regularly cared for friends’ and family members’ pets while they’re out of town, making sure their pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own routine. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their happiness and well-being. As a teacher, my schedule allows me to be home in the evenings and on weekends, giving me plenty of time to provide attentive and consistent pet care. I’m able to stick closely to feeding schedules, playtime, walks, and any special routines your pet needs. Because my time outside of school is flexible and dependable, I can give your pet the care, attention, and companionship they deserve. I provide loving, hands-on care tailored to each pet’s needs. At home, I have two cats and a dog, so I’m very familiar with balancing playtime, exercise, and daily routines. I make sure my pets get plenty of attention and enrichment through play, and I walk my dog multiple times a day to keep him happy and healthy. I bring the same level of care, patience, and dedication to every pet I look after, treating them as if they were my own.
“Duke was well cared for during his stay with Haley. I appreciated the communication and updates. Duke seemed to feel at home right away and enjoyed playing with her 2 dogs for the weekend. He was wagging his tail and smiling when I showed up to pick him up. I would definitely recommend.”

“We will be back ! Back yard was perfect for my energetic dog ! Area in her home was perfect for our elderly dog . So nice to leave town without a worry ! Thank you Samantha!”

About: I provide attentive, personalized care for cats of all personalities—from the social butterflies who want constant attention to the shy ones who prefer to observe from a safe distance. My professional animal-care experience has given me extensive knowledge of animal body language and behavior, allowing me to recognize when a cat is comfortable, stressed, overstimulated, or simply asking for some space. I believe cats deserve care on their terms, and I always take the time to build trust rather than forcing interaction. I’m also experienced with administering medications, including specialized medications and injections, making me comfortable caring for cats with additional medical needs. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, litter box habits, and overall demeanor so I can keep you informed about how your cat is doing. Whether your cat needs feeding, playtime, enrichment, medication, litter care, or simply some quiet companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them with patience, respect, and plenty of love. 🐱❤️
“Andrea (Annie) was prompt every day, sent regular photos and communication! Our pets got top shelf care and were in excellent condition when we got back home!! Andrea will be our go to sitter from now on!!”


About: Though I have never had a cat of my own, I have taken care of several friends’ cats when they have been out of town since I was in middle school. I understand that some cats need special care and am always ready to provide that, especially since I am hoping to go to vet school and am always interested in learning how to keep our animals healthy.
“Brittany was so great!! We've used A LOT of Rover sitters over the years and Brittany has been one of the best! We appreciated the adorable photos and detailed updates. It really helped us to enjoy our time away more knowing our kitties were safe and well-cared for at home!”

About: I have had dogs and various pets in my household since I was born and adore any animal. I am experienced in caring for puppies, senior dogs, and both large and small breeds. I understand that each pet has different needs and personalities and love helping to make a loving and safe space for them while their people are away. I am currently a full time Biology student at Marshall University. I can walk/check in on your pet(s) in the mornings, midday, or in the evenings. I am available to stay with your pet any nights. I will follow any instructions and schedule given. I like to make sure that pets get plenty of play and interaction time during the day and make it a priority to spend day time with your pets.
About: I’ve been recommended to many by word of mouth, so I decided to bring my business to Rover as well! There’s nothing I love more than being able to provide comfort for your pets whenever you’re away. Me and your pets will go on walks, play dates, and anything else they enjoy! Be prepared for lots of photos of us enjoying our days together! I am working part time while in graduate school. Ideally, I am available for overnight stays, whether it be for the weekend or two weeks! I also have sitter backups for any extra care needed in which I’m not able to tend to. I’m currently in graduate school at Morehead State in Ky and will be commuting twice weekly until May. I haven’t dog sat in my own home before because I have 2 dogs and a pig of my own. Caring for your home and pets is what is most important to me! I will always be easy to reach, whether it be by phone, text, or FaceTime! I will also water your plants, pick up your mail, take out the trash, etc.
About: I used to be a kennel technician who walked dogs, practiced training, while offering playtime for them and cleaning up their space. I’ve always loved caring for animals and wildlife and want to branch out on my own. I’m also a college student currently! I have a very flexible schedule right now, all that’s needed is to message me and see how our availabilities line up! I integrate your pets life into mine. I have a variety of treats and food on hand, but will follow whatever diet your dog needs. I also have the time for high energy dogs or dogs that need training through e-collars or etc. I also own lots of toys and a large crate, or litter box if need be. If you have any more specific questions please ask!
“Tea did a great job taking care of our kitties! She was very flexible with accommodating my last minute request! I had comfort knowing my kitties were very well taken care of while we were gone!”

About: I am a dog whisperer. They love me, I love them. I can make your cat or dog come out of their shell! I genuinely love taking care of other’s animals like they’re one of my own. I am a Division 1 College athlete. That being said, I have my schedule for the month and I am very willing to work tedious hours for your pet. I will treat your home with the upmost respect. I will consider where the best places to walk your dog would be. I will locate and clean the cat’s litter box consistently. Your animal will always have water! And food of course!

“Chloe is the best sitter ever! She gave us piece of mind while doing excellent work. She made her last visit right before we returned home so the boxes and bowls would be tidy. She gave extra attention to our cats. Booking her is the best option out there. Highly recommend”

“Christina was wonderful with Asher. He is so nervous around new people and he was snuggling with her in no time. She’ took wonderful care of him and updated with pictures. Could not be more thankful.”


About: As a lifelong dog owner, caring for pups is second nature to me. I know exactly how important peace of mind is when leaving your pet, which is why I prioritize clear communication, frequent updates, and plenty of personalized attention. From daily walks and interactive playtime to cozy cuddle sessions, I tailor my care to match your dog's specific personality and energy level. I look forward to treating your beloved pet like a member of my own family. I currently stay at Home so I am available any time of the day. This allows me to easily accommodate custom feeding, walking, and medication schedules. I have a small yard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. My yard is not fenced, so I always take guests on guided walks and trips to the local park for secure, energetic exercise. My pet is a miniature poodle who loves to play and cuddle. For bedtime, guests can sleep comfortably right in my bedroom or use a dedicated spare room depending on their routine.
“We used Haley’s daycare service for the first time and let me tell you she is a sweetheart. She and her dog are very friendly. She sent me pics throughout the day which made me felt comfortable. When I picked up Cookie, Haley provided a sweet summary of how much fun they had. Highly recommended!”

About: Unlike many kids today, I take time to care for your family member and I ensure all needs are met as you would want them. My schedule is flexible most days. Depending on your dog’s needs we can create a schedule that will work. Morning and evening feedings. Medicine care too. Together we can meet the needs of your pet on their schedule. Flexible to care in your home or mine. Walks are a good thing
“Brittany was very patient with my crazy lab. She's clearly well loved by animals. My lab ran to her and jumped up on her but she was calm and understanding. She waited until he calmed down and only then walked him.”

About: I am looking to provide love and care to your fur babies when you aren’t able to. I have two fur babies of my own currently and have had many in the past. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all different shapes and sizes! I look forward to meeting your fur babies and caring for them like my own. I work as a bus driver so between my morning and evening run I have plenty of time to make stop ins and check on pet and/or take them for a walk. My partner works from home which provides a flexible schedule. Unfortunately, I am currently unable to care for your pets in my home due to our young children. However, your pets safety and comfort will be a top priority for me when coming into your home to care for them.
About: Since I was five years old when we adopted our family puppy, I have been involved in taking care of dogs. I have also over 350 hours of shelter volunteer experience in walking dogs, giving medications, and obedience training. Since I am hoping to be a vet one day, I am always wanting to meet new animals and give them the best care possible! I currently work part-time, 3-5 days a week from 8-4. I can usually get away to let your dog out at lunch if needed. Bottom line is if I am pet-sitting for you, your animal will be my priority! I do not have the capacity to care for your pet in my house, but I can provide whatever level of care you need in for your pet in your own home! If you need me to stay the night, I can do that. I am a detail-oriented person so whatever your pet needs I feel confident I can provide it.

About: I’ve had many pets since a very young age, from small kittens that were 4oz that needed bottle fed to giant Rottweilers that weigh more than me. Feeding, bathing, grooming, walks, medical instructions, cuddling, potty times, etc. I work from home so I do my pets’ care during breaks, before and after working, and before I go to sleep for the night. Day to day basis. Sometimes if I get up in the middle of the night for the ladies room, I check on them before laying back in bed. I take care of them like a mother does for her baby, by giving and doing everything that needs to be done for your pet to be happy and healthy.

I am already walking / running in the morning, and evenings and I would love to walk your dog. I also have watched many family members animals. I would take care of them for a couple days to even a few weeks. I figured a dog needs their daily exercise as well, and if their owner is too busy I'd gladly take that off their plate!

I do walk alot and I will definitely keep anyone updated from arrival to park and to home.
