The picture updates were a wonderful touch; they showed just how happy he was. Jayden and his family who took care of Wolfie was truly wonderful, providing exceptional service and demonstrating a high level of professionalism. The quality of care was excellent, and the price was very affordable for the outstanding service received. Overall, I highly recommend this dog boarding service. Wolfie had a great time, and I appreciate the peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands.”

About: I’ve spent three years caring for various cat breeds and personalities. I’m comfortable with everything from active kittens to older cats, focusing on keeping their environment stable and following their usual routine.
About: I’ve had and cared for cats for over 25 years, so I understand their behavior, routines, and unique personalities. I’m experienced with shy, anxious, and independent cats, as well as seniors who may need extra patience and gentle care. I’m comfortable with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, and giving attention at your cat’s comfort level. I take time to build trust so your cat feels safe and stress free in their own home. I’m reliable and provide updates so you always know how your cat is doing.

About: I have owned animals my whole life, both cats and dogs. I have owned/ co-owned big dogs, medium dogs, small dogs, older dogs, energetic dogs, lazy dogs, snuggly dogs, etc. I have also owned big and small cats, lazy cats, somewhat mean cats, snuggly cats, energetic cats, etc. I have dog walking experience, bathing experience, and dietary restriction experience. I recently moved out of a house with a roommate where we co-owned a boxer doberman golden mix named Kamila, and I am no longer a co-owner, and I miss being with her so much. I am not in a situation to own a pet right now so pet sitting is the perfect job! I currently work part time as a server and bartender, so my schedule is flexible. Usually my workdays are no longer than 6 hours at a time, so the majority of my time will be with your furr babies!! It all depends on how the owner wants me to care for their animal. I work for the owners! I have never had a fenced in yard so I always would take a dog outside on a leash to go to the bathroom, and I have had experience with both dogs that have a feeding schedule and free eating dogs. I love going on walks if the dog is capable, and I also love playing inside whether it is a dog or a cat. I know brain enrichment is super important for animals so making sure they get some of that as well and not just physical exercise is something I pay attention to.
“Alexus always takes good care of my dog and plays with him during her visits. Would definitely recommend her to others looking for someone to take good care of their pet!”
“Margaret and Travis took excellent care of my cats during my weekend getaway. Provided very thorough details of their visits and sent several pictures during the visits. Definitely made me feel at ease while I was away for the weekend. Would love to book with them again!”
About: I have always owned a pet. I also worked as a zookeeper for 7 years before becoming a stay-at-home mom. I can care for any animal and can even provide basic training. I will also come work on your farm. I love physical work and am working towards having my own homestead. I am also comfortable administering medications. I can come out almost any day of the week to walk, spend time, do animal chores, or whatever else is needed for your pet or farm. I will likely have my son who I stay home with unless this is an issue with your pet or your personal preference. Due to having children I will not be able to stay the night but can come several times a day and in the evenings. I will come to your home to care for your pets. I will follow all written instructions. I prefer to come and do a meet and greet to become familiar with your pet and the routine you have established. I will always check first to see if I can bring my son as I am a stay-at-home mom and only don't have him two days a week. I will always be attentive with him and the animals as I do understand how to identify behavior. I spent 17 years in the zoo field both as a volunteer and as a keeper.
“This was our first time using Rover. Even though Evie had a family emergency, she still went over and took care of our cat. We appreciate her dedication! We will use her again when we travel.”

About: I've been taking care of pets, plants and homes for the last ten years. I believe in having a pet owner coming back to their pet/home in better shape than they left them. I've encountered many different personalities of pets over the years and understand each has different needs and desires. I ensure that the pet is comfortable with the environment and myself by building a relationship of trust. I'm a high school technology teacher enjoying summer break. I've decided to join Rover so I can still work during my down time this summer. I have cared for animals short & long term and have many necessary items like leashes, bowls, foods, bags and more. I have air conditioning for the hot days of summer. Walking your dog helps me live a healthy lifestyle that I enjoy.

About: I have grown up and taken care of animals since the age of four! I have had dogs of all sizes, inside and outside cats, fresh and saltwater fish, rabbits, chickens, and pigs!! I have experience in all basic animal care needs including training, bathing, brushing, and trimming nails! I am currently not working so besides doing everyday chores around the house or grocery shopping I am with my dog and children all day. In my home, besides having two toddlers that are very good with pets, I have two dogs that get along well with other dogs. My yard is not fenced in but I do have an outdoor kennel that is also open to board dogs if needed.

About: I have had my dog for over 8 years, and many other animals come and go in my life that I’ve given all the love and attention to! I love to take walks around my neighborhood and be outside as much as possible. I have a fenced in back yard . Special skills include playing fetch, providing treats, and a lot of cuddles and scratches. I am home most weekends because I work full-time and am a student, and dog-sitting would give me the opportunity to get some exercise and have a change of pace.I work from home 100% of the time so I can be flexible during the week with your pup. I work from home 100% of the time so being home with your pup and attention is a given! Having my own dog, I understand the importance of not just being let outside, but also providing stimulating activity. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to run around and play. Also have a large crate in case of needing it.
“It was the first time we’d left our little one with a dog sitter, and we were a little worried because ever since we adopted her, she’s always been very shy and tends to be afraid of strangers, but Jenifer was amazing with Hazel. She was extremely friendly and kept us updated on our little ball of fur, making her feel like she was part of a second family. My husband and I are very happy—we’ll definitely be back.”
About: My wife and I have taken care of dogs for a long time. We understand that every dog has special needs. We are receptive to all breeds I am currently retired and my wife works part time.

Our dog is a yorkie/toy poodle. We can work with you for your dog to have a pleasant stay
“Celene is legitimately the best dog sitter you could ask for. She not only is an early riser but is a night owl. Celene sends updates and ask questions without even being asked. She not only puts effort in towards jaxsons training she has even went out of her way to teach us on how we could be doing different/better. Celene also makes sure that jaxson gets the proper food/water/bathroom breaks as he needs. He doesn't come back hungry, needing to potty, or beat up. Penny, celenes dog, is hands down the cutest little thing I've ever seen. When I get there she is happy to greet me at the door with kisses and tail wags. Jaxson also loves penny and always comes back PROPERLY wore out. My final thoughts are if I could had another grandma I would ask her. Shes been there for us EVERY time we've need her and that's at the end of the day all I could ask.”
About: Hello! My name is John’Asia. As you may see by viewing my photos, I have a huge heart for fur babies. It all started when I volunteered at a local animal shelter in my hometown. I fell in love with the idea of taking care of the pups/kittens there. That’s when I decided to start my own business in the pet care industry!

I will be sure to send you daily photos of your fur baby for your comfort.

Also, if you need me to feed or clean up a possible accident, that’s not a problem! Boarding: I treat all pups as my own while under my care. Your pup will go everywhere (Bike Rides, dog park, summer events, trails, etc.) with me except other homes I service! Your pup will feel like he/she is on vacation as well!!

“We cannot say enough good things about Suzanne! Our dog Barkley had a wonderful afternoon at her house: he spent the day basking in her sunny yard and napping inside (basically Barkley’s idea of a perfect day!) Suzanne was wonderful to communicate with: prompt, friendly and quick to answer any questions I had. Additionally, she was flexible with drop-off and pick-up times which we really appreciated, and she communicated during Barkley’s visit. We will absolutely book Suzanne again and highly recommend her as a pet sitter!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life. Growing up my family had a golden retriever, Yorkshire terrier and beagle lab mix. I recently lost my 17 year old cava-poo. I’m currently working part time and have Mondays and Fridays available to help you out any way I can. Weekends are also flexible for your needs. I have a fenced in backyard to keep your dog safe. I also have a large crate inside if needed. My cat is super friendly and gets along with all pets.
About: My first job growing up was working for my aunts Dog Grooming Business. With that experience, I am able to bathe, trim, nails, and give haircuts to most breeds. I have been watching dogs for family and friends most of my adult life either in Home or at their home. I enjoy being outside taking dogs on walks in nature & letting them sniff all the smells. I currently work from home and I’m the owner of my business so my time is very flexible. I am able to go to homes or watch pets in my home during the day and nights. My home has a large unfenced yard with a woods where we are able to go on walks and explore. I have two dogs in my home and they are part of my family. I do have crates in home if needed, but rarely use them. Both of my dogs are rescues currently so I do like to have a meeting before if a dog will be staying in our home. If I’m watching the pet in your home, I will come over as much as needed and even stay the night if that is necessary.
“Carrie was amazing! She was super quick to respond and so nice. She provided updates and pictures of my puppy, Ruby, throughout the day. Ruby loved running around Carrie’s yard and playing with her two dogs. She definitely had a great day staying with Carrie.”

“Qianna was a vacation-saver. Our original dog-walker had transportation and communication issues so we had to cancel with her. We found Qianna mid-afternoon and she was willing to come over that evening to meet us and then take over the next 8 days of dog-walking. She was quick to respond, pleasant, dependable and a very motivated young woman. She did a great job with Reno & his quirks. A many-star rating from us.”

Or I can stop by Monday Tuesday Thursday after 8pm or after 4pm Fridays and Saturdays. Sundays and Wednesdays available all day. I will treat your pets like I treat my own, which are like children to me (I don’t have any of my own yet). But everyone says I spoil my animals (dog and cat) like they’re my babies. Lol and they totally are. All animals are just innocent babies and I will treat them with kind love and compassion.
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, and birds. I have often pet-sat for friends and family in the past and am willing to work out a clear schedule and guidelines. I got my first pet when I was in the third grade, and I helped raised that dog since it was only a few months old. That dog now is almost 15 years old and I still take care of her in every way that I can! My schedule is very open. I currently work a few hours online from home, so I can drop in and see pets or stay overnight with them any day of the week. I will be sure to follow strict directions for caring for each pet. I am a 4.0 honors student who is very keen on directions and guidelines for each pet. I also understand how important a pet is in your life, so I will do everything to ensure that your pet is cared for and loved while away!
About: I've been caring for animals for most of my life and have extensive experience with both dogs and cats. I currently have three cats and a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pets while you're away. I'm experienced with feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic medications, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their normal routine. I especially enjoy spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities, whether that means going for walks, playing fetch, or providing extra attention and companionship. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing they're receiving the care and attention they deserve. Pet care fits well into my schedule. I'm available during regular daytime hours for walks and drop-in visits, as well as Monday and Tuesday evenings and all day Sundays. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I'm committed to showing up on time and following your pet's normal routine. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, exercise, feeding, medication, or some extra attention while you're away, I'm happy to help. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize safety, reliability, and following your instructions exactly. I'll make sure your pets have fresh water, are fed according to their schedule, receive any needed medications, and get plenty of attention and exercise. I'll respect your home, secure doors and gates, and provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are safe and well cared for while you're away.

The picture updates were a wonderful touch; they showed just how happy he was. Jayden and his family who took care of Wolfie was truly wonderful, providing exceptional service and demonstrating a high level of professionalism. The quality of care was excellent, and the price was very affordable for the outstanding service received. Overall, I highly recommend this dog boarding service. Wolfie had a great time, and I appreciate the peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands.”
“Erin was amazing with our dog Kenai! She watched him for us while we went on our honeymoon and truly made Kenai feel at home!

I would gladly have her dog sit for us again and HIGHLY recommend her!”

I needed to find a safe spot for my dad's dog, and Beth not only took her in but also made her feel like part of the household, as well as sending me regular updates and happy photos during their week+ stay. I can't thank Beth enough for her flexibility, openness, and compassion. Highly recommend!”

We've only had Carly a little over a year & she can be high energy and a handful at times so we weren't sure how she would react to her new surroundings.

About: I’m 24 years old, im a part time stna and part time dog sitter! Im a pet owner, I’ve grew up with pets my entire life. I grew up with cats, dogs, fish, goats. I love to care for animals/ people who can’t take care/speak for themselves😇 I currently work a part time, night shift job during the week Tuesday-Thursday. I am available on weekends at ANY TIME for boarding, house sitting or drop-in visits. And during the week I am also available any time after 9am! For any pet they need to be fed, bathed, time to play, let outside to potty and just be a nice companion to them everyday. I’m a pet owner myself so I already do the everyday chores/ needs that are needed for care. It’s been a lifelong routine of mine that I’m accustomed to.
“Rylee seemed to enjoy her time with Kristin. Kristin kept us up to date with photos of how Rylee was doing. This was very much appreciated. We will definitely use Kristen again.”
About: I care for dogs by keeping them on a consistent routine and paying close attention to their individual needs. I make sure they get regular potty breaks, exercise, and safe, supervised play time. I follow feeding instructions exactly, keep water fresh, and maintain clean food and water bowls. I also watch for behavior or appetite changes and communicate anything important right away. I’m patient, calm, and attentive, and I take time to build trust so dogs feel comfortable and secure. Whether a dog is high-energy or laid-back, I adjust my approach to match their personality. As an active duty Army service member and lifelong dog owner since age 15, I bring reliability, structure, and genuine care to every pet I look after. I work Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM, and my job is only about 15 minutes from my apartment, so I can return home quickly if needed. My spouse works from home, so pets in my care are supervised 24/7. I’m an Active Guard/Reserve service member and typically work one weekend per month — I plan all pet care commitments around that schedule. I’m up daily at 4:30 AM and keep a very structured routine, so feeding times, walks, potty breaks, and exercise schedules are followed consistently. I also have a home camera system to monitor pets throughout the day. On most weekends, I spend the day out and active with my own dog, so pets in my care get plenty of attention and exercise. You may notice my rates are on the lower end. that’s by design! I keep my prices affordable and let my work speak for itself. If you feel I went above and beyond, a tip is how I know I nailed it. No pressure at all, but it means the world when people show their appreciation that way. I’m committed to giving your pet the best care possible regardless! I provide a safe, structured, and supervised home environment where dogs are treated like family. Pets in my care are allowed to comfortably roam the home and are not kept in a crate all day. I have an American Bully in the home who is friendly and fully up to date on all vaccinations. All dogs are kept on leash during outdoor time for safety. I keep the home clean, remove hazards, and maintain fresh water and feeding areas daily. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and behavior guidelines. I also use a home camera system to monitor pets when I step out. While I don’t normally crate dogs, I can crate your pet if needed or if that is your preference.
“Rachel was so kind, communicative and flexible with us being from out of town. We knew from meeting her and all the photos she sent that our dog Opal was in great hands overnight. Thank you so much again Rachel! I highly recommend her if you’re looking someone to watch over your pet.”
“Mary was amazing with my Sadie girl!!!!! She sent me pics and was very kind. I will use her every time I go away. I felt Sadie was safe and cared for. It made it so much easier to leave her”
