“Ronda is an amazing dog sitter!! She was friendly with us as well as the dog. I felt confident after the play meet because she let our good dog kairi run around in every room and outside. The house was very clean, freshly scented and safe for dogs. We were sent pictures everyday without asking or bothering her. We had no complaints for a whole 9 days on vacation to California. We will always contact her for future dog sitting no matter the duration. We trust her and she’s a good, nice, modern, casual, and sweet person. Easy to talk with and recommend her for sure upon being strangers. Ronda watched our pitbull with confidence with all the true information about Kairi. It worked out. Thank you so much!!”
“Loved booking with Brittni, very easy process. She was available any time I had a question or just wanted to check in on Max. He loved it there snd I’m happy I found someone that he is comfortable with so that I don’t have to be anxious while away.”
“Pepper is a reoccurring guest here and we feel comfortable knowing she’s safe and taken care of. We love that she gets plenty of time outside and with other dogs”
“Maya is an awesome nanny for our kitty. While we were traveling to Yellowstone National Park, Maya kindly helped take care of our little girl—our beloved cat, Meme. She kept us updated with photos and stories of Meme’s daily activities. As a talented writer, Maya beautifully captured their moments together with vivid and heartwarming descriptions. Meme quickly warmed up to Maya and settled in with ease. She’s been eating well—so well, in fact, that she’s noticeably heavier than before! We’re truly grateful for the time and care that Maya and her husband devoted to looking after her. Thanks to their support, we were able to enjoy our trip with complete peace of mind.”
About: I’ve had a fur companion all of my life! I’ve successfully raised and trained five dogs from puppies and I have experience with rescue pups who may not feel entirely comfortable in their new environment. I’ve experienced small and large breeds alike, with my current pup being a King Cavalier Spaniel. Goose’s cousins who we see weekly are two Golden retrievers and one rescue mix. I’m able to be flexible or rigid when it comes to your pets schedule, and am knowledgeable in special diets, fresh pet food, administering meds if needed. I have the luxury of working from home and creating my own schedule which makes my days very flexible! I currently can accept pets for boarding, play dates or walks Sunday through Thursday, 9:30am to 10pm. I have a fenced in back yard and a puppy who loves to play with other dogs of all sizes. My dog is allowed to be on all furniture and sleep in the bed and your pet would be permitted to as well if that is your preference! Goose and I take several walks a day and love to take day trips to various area dog parks and hiking trails or enjoy a lazy afternoon on the couch.
“We were away for 7 days and Carly kept us updated daily with photos of Norman-he seemed happy and adjusted well with his stay! I would highly recommend Carly if you’re looking for someone who cares about your pet! We will definitely be booking with Carly again!”
“She was awesome. Very friendly and her dog was very playful and friendly. Her family is awesome with animals and my dog loved them. She sent photos while we were gone of my dog playing with the others. Would highly recommend her”

I am availability because this is my only job, and I am passionate. I have been lucky enough to be raised with dogs my entire life. My family were breeders for standard poodles at one point, which was amazing to watch and learn about. I am no stranger to special needs, administering meds, able to provide short term care until help arrives. I love all dog breeds equally and will treat your dog like my own. This is my passion. I have 2 guest rooms that can be turned into private doggo apartments. If your pets need exercise I can provide. If they need relaxation, I love cuddles on the couch.

We live 3 minutes from 2 vet clinics and we use them for our own dogs. We have security cameras in the house with 2 way speakers if we need to step out for any reason.

We are happy to share our dogs food but would prefer food is delivered with the dog for stays. We are used to dogs that have a tendency to run if given the chance but appreciate heads up so we can be extra attentive.
“Very responsive and sent many pictures of the dogs. Ares, being a large puppy, is a lot, but Jeanne was so kind to take him in and watch my pups. I would recommend her as a dog sitter to anyone in the area and would book again with her if needed!”
“Thank you very much for everything towards my dog. You are a very good caregiver. My dog was very happy. She keeps you in communication and sends you photos every day.🤗”

“Karen, thank you do much for taking care of Abby. We really appreciate all you have done. We will definitely be using you again in the future. Abby, Linc, Pete and Brody thanks you again. 😀🐈⬛”
“Look no further—Tate is the sitter you’ve been searching for! From our very first interaction, I was struck by her warmth and genuine expertise with animals. She took the time to listen carefully, ask thoughtful questions, and make sure every detail was covered so I felt completely at ease. What truly sets Tate apart is not just her knowledge, but the love and dedication she brings to caring for pets. She goes above and beyond to ensure you feel confident and comfortable leaving your fur baby in her capable hands. Working with Tate has been an outstanding experience, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Meghan was amazing. She completed every visit we requested and was able to accept 2 additional visits due to our delay in returning home. Meghan is very quick to respond to messages and sent wonderful pictures of our cats at each visit. Meghan allowed us to be away from our fur babies without worry about them. Highly recommend Meghan and will definitely call on her again when we go out of town.”
“Best cat sitter I’ve ever had. Stephanie is kind-hearted and ao sweet with my 2 cats. They connected with her immediately. You can quickly tell when someone is an “animal person” and she definitely is. Stephanie shows up on schedule, communicates promptly and is very responsible. Highly recommended. 🩷”
“Anna is wonderful! My cat, Mitzi, doesn't like to be cared for by sitters. She usually hides from them, but she took an immediate liking to Anna. Mitzi requires a lot of special care. She needs to be cleaned and, additionally, to be gently persuaded to be cleaned everyday, and she let Anna do this for her, which has rarely happened in the past. Also, Anna gives her a lot of affection and attention. She loves what she does, and she will really care for your pet. Mitzi and I can't wait until she comes back!”
“Krista did a great job with our boys during drop in visits for a long weekend while we were out of town. She made sure they had food, water, and administered daily medications. Our boys enjoyed playing with her and she was respectful of our home. We will definitely look forward to using her in the future!”
About: I can't remember a time in my life when I didn't have pets. I truly love caring for pets of all kinds. Dogs, cats, fish, etc... My schedule is extremely flexible, so I'm able to fit into whatever time slot is needed to best care for your pet, and keep them on a schedule. I feel the best way to care for pets is to earn their trust. It's never a good idea to force yourself on a pet, but to read their body language and take it from there.
“My Winston is not the most social cat, however with Abi as a sitter he came out and even wanted attention. Ruby on the other hand is the social butterfly, I always say if Ruby was a dog she'd let you rob my home for a scratch or a belly rub. I am extremely happy with our sitter Abi. She was attentive, loving and on time each day. 5 stars”
“Lori is AMAZING!! She was so patient with my "special/difficult" dog and really went out of her way to make sure he was comfortable and that I was comfortable leaving for the week! I would highly recommend Lori to anyone looking to have their fur baby cared for!”

Whatever you and your furbaby want, I will accommodate. I accept dogs of any size.

Bridgette was super helpful with remembering things we could us help with that we forgot! Like taking the trash down on trash night and grabbing our mail for us. I highly recommend her and will book with her in the future! Thank you Bridgette from us and Poe 💕”
“Laurel did a great job with our dog Reece and disabled cat Bobbie! We were worried how Reece would do with a new person coming into our home without us there. Laurel did great giving him time and space, he quickly warmed up to her! Having a disabled cat often makes it hard to find someone who will take care of their needs, Lauel did not hesitate and took such good care of her! Laurel was great with communicating with us and sending pictures. We will definitely be booking with Laurel in the future.”

“Maya did a great job with Merlin. Not only did she take good care of him but gave him some much needed play time. She even found some new food for him that he loves. Maya went above and beyond.”
“Abi was so great with my little buddy! So very accommodating even tho my work hours can change and I work long late shifts. She made sure he stayed warm and even tried to protect his little feet from the cold. She even made him a fancy little collar necklace. Thank you for loving my baby too!”

I’m not afraid of dogs of any size and I’m ready to give my love and compassion to as many dogs as I possibly can.

I am not on a tight schedule so I can take your pet out as often as they need.

About: Hello! My name is Chelsea and I have lived a life with love for all animals in my heart very fruitfully. I personally have two large breed dogs of my own, and one hamster. I’m not shy when it comes to types, ages, or sizes of animals. I am the first person my family and friends leave their animals with because they know that they will find their dogs sleeping next to me on the couch, treated like royalty and family. I work with rescue agencies as well as fostering agencies to ensure stable homes, donated needs are being met, and daily play time is available. I own a large home with a fenced in backyard. I have experience with special needs animals as well. All drop off pets MUST be okay with other dogs. No exceptions!! If you need last minute overnight care you MUST provide the crate, food, and other necessary items. I cannot host puppies without their crates in my home. Please make sure your pets are up to date on their vaccines as well as their preventative medicines! Prices have been adjusted due to rising gas prices. I’m sorry for this inconvenience and when they go back down so will my prices! 💕 I have open availability working around my sons school schedule. I’m a SAHM and work PRN as a nurse & clean Air BNB’s between pet clients. I am always able to work with your schedule! I have a massive fenced in yard with security cameras. All animals have free access to water in two places and feedings are timed scheduled (unless client otherwise states). My home is two stories and I am able to separate animals if need be.
About: Hi, I’m Tate a lifelong animal lover with experience as unique as the pets I care for! I grew up surrounded by animals—horses, dogs, geese, and barn cats—and I’ve been a trusted sitter for everything from puppies to parrots, bottle babies to bearded dragons. I have a special heart for pets with extra needs, including those with anxiety, reactivity, or medical concerns. I’m experienced with insulin administration, glucose monitoring, and special meal prep—your pet’s routine is safe with me. While my husband was serving in the Air Force, I spent four years caring for military families’ pets near Dyess AFB while completing my college degree. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, chickens, exotics—you name it, I’ve probably cuddled it! I genuinely feel like I speak their language. Whether your pet is high-energy, shy, or needs a little extra TLC, I’ll meet them where they’re at—with love, patience, and lots of care. Pet care isn’t just something I fit into my routine—it’s something my routine feels incomplete without. After earning my degree in graphic design and moving across the country, I had to say goodbye to the fur family I sat for in Texas. That shift made me realize just how much joy and purpose pet sitting brought to my everyday life. These days, I work from home on flexible, self-paced art and design projects, which means I have the freedom to take breaks, make visits, and give pets the attention they deserve—whether it’s a midday walk, medication, or just some much-needed love. Caring for animals brings balance and warmth to my day, and I genuinely look forward to every tail wag, meow, chirp, or cuddle. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, my top priority is maintaining their usual routine and environment to minimize stress and keep them feeling safe and secure. I take time to understand each pet’s specific needs, whether that’s playtime outside, quiet companionship, or extra TLC for pets who are shy or reactive. My approach is experience-focused—I’m not just there to check a box, but to make sure your pets are truly cared for and comforted while you’re away. I also believe in leaving your home as tidy (or better!) than you left it. I often vacuum or sweep, take out the trash, bring in mail, and keep up with litter boxes, enclosures, and yard clean-up. My goal is to provide total peace of mind—both for your pets and for you.
About: I have cared for pets most of my life. After high school, I would pet sit for teachers who went on vacation—and through word of mouth, became a regular on call sitter for 3 different homes with multiple pets. I have cared for, mostly, senior dogs but am so happy to give puppies the attention and energy they need. I especially love going on long walks. I am currently in nursing school and, because it’s an online hybrid program, I have lots of free time during the day and evenings. I have clinicals during the weekend but will be sure to block those days off when I get my schedule. I do not offer boarding for pets in my own home, since I live in an apartment, but am happy to do whatever you need to care for your little (or big) family members! All I need is instruction and I’ll take care of it.
About: I love the interaction with dogs and have many years of experience caring for my own pets along with friend’s, neighbor’s, and relative’s dogs. I can provide a clean and safe environment for your dog. I am currently available throughout the week both day and evening hours to care for your dog. Your dog will receive care and attention around the clock. I have a nice large fenced in backyard where your dog can run in a quiet private neighborhood setting. The turf is well maintained and safe.
About: I don’t remember a time in my life that I wasn’t taking care of animals! Whether it be while growing up or starting to dogsit/walk in high school, there was never a time a fur baby wasn’t relying on me. And I wouldn’t have it any other way! I have a flexible schedule which allows me to help out with my friends and families animals, as well as volunteer for local animal shelters. I have experience with dogs of all ages and levels of care. I know how difficult it can be to trust someone with your pet (I have used Rover myself when I go out of town) so I assure you I will provide the kind of care and attention to your pet that I would want given to my own! :) I’m currently working part time. My job offers flexible hours, so I have the opportunity to accommodate whatever schedule you and your pet require. :) I will happily go over what your pets routine is and abide by whatever you’re most comfortable with! If your dog is used to being walked at certain times, crated, etc. The well being and safety of your animal is my upmost concern so whatever you need me to do to guarantee that, is what I’ll do!
About: I’ve always loved animals and have years of experience watching my own! I adore animals of all types and hope to give your furry friends the love and care they need! I am new to rover and hoping to help out anyone in need. I am comfortable around all dogs and I am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal! I have had several dogs throughout my life and have experience with dogs ages 1 and older. I’d love to be able to take your dog on walks, to the park, or drop in for visits! I’d love to bond with your fur babies and do anything you already do with them to make them feel as comfortable and happy as possible! I plan to update you throughout my visit with pictures and messages so you know how your pet is doing! I am willing to take same-day requests and can fit your fur baby into my schedule whenever needed! I know how important it is that our furry friends get the love and care needed and I am more than willing to provide that! 💗 I can stop in your home as much as needed or even stay to take care of your pets! I can walk, bathe, feed, and love on your furry friends whenever needed! 😊 I’d love to take them to the park as well to get in some exercise and bonding time with other animals if it’s something your furry friend enjoys!

“Ronda is an amazing dog sitter!! She was friendly with us as well as the dog. I felt confident after the play meet because she let our good dog kairi run around in every room and outside. The house was very clean, freshly scented and safe for dogs. We were sent pictures everyday without asking or bothering her. We had no complaints for a whole 9 days on vacation to California. We will always contact her for future dog sitting no matter the duration. We trust her and she’s a good, nice, modern, casual, and sweet person. Easy to talk with and recommend her for sure upon being strangers. Ronda watched our pitbull with confidence with all the true information about Kairi. It worked out. Thank you so much!!”
“Loved booking with Brittni, very easy process. She was available any time I had a question or just wanted to check in on Max. He loved it there snd I’m happy I found someone that he is comfortable with so that I don’t have to be anxious while away.”
“Pepper is a reoccurring guest here and we feel comfortable knowing she’s safe and taken care of. We love that she gets plenty of time outside and with other dogs”
“Maya is an awesome nanny for our kitty. While we were traveling to Yellowstone National Park, Maya kindly helped take care of our little girl—our beloved cat, Meme. She kept us updated with photos and stories of Meme’s daily activities. As a talented writer, Maya beautifully captured their moments together with vivid and heartwarming descriptions. Meme quickly warmed up to Maya and settled in with ease. She’s been eating well—so well, in fact, that she’s noticeably heavier than before! We’re truly grateful for the time and care that Maya and her husband devoted to looking after her. Thanks to their support, we were able to enjoy our trip with complete peace of mind.”
About: I’ve had a fur companion all of my life! I’ve successfully raised and trained five dogs from puppies and I have experience with rescue pups who may not feel entirely comfortable in their new environment. I’ve experienced small and large breeds alike, with my current pup being a King Cavalier Spaniel. Goose’s cousins who we see weekly are two Golden retrievers and one rescue mix. I’m able to be flexible or rigid when it comes to your pets schedule, and am knowledgeable in special diets, fresh pet food, administering meds if needed. I have the luxury of working from home and creating my own schedule which makes my days very flexible! I currently can accept pets for boarding, play dates or walks Sunday through Thursday, 9:30am to 10pm. I have a fenced in back yard and a puppy who loves to play with other dogs of all sizes. My dog is allowed to be on all furniture and sleep in the bed and your pet would be permitted to as well if that is your preference! Goose and I take several walks a day and love to take day trips to various area dog parks and hiking trails or enjoy a lazy afternoon on the couch.
“We were away for 7 days and Carly kept us updated daily with photos of Norman-he seemed happy and adjusted well with his stay! I would highly recommend Carly if you’re looking for someone who cares about your pet! We will definitely be booking with Carly again!”
“She was awesome. Very friendly and her dog was very playful and friendly. Her family is awesome with animals and my dog loved them. She sent photos while we were gone of my dog playing with the others. Would highly recommend her”
“Very responsive and sent many pictures of the dogs. Ares, being a large puppy, is a lot, but Jeanne was so kind to take him in and watch my pups. I would recommend her as a dog sitter to anyone in the area and would book again with her if needed!”
“Thank you very much for everything towards my dog. You are a very good caregiver. My dog was very happy. She keeps you in communication and sends you photos every day.🤗”
“If there was a rate of 10 stars Briana would get it! The communication is fabulous along with the pictures of our sweet Samoyed with her family and their dog, Duke. We are at easy knowing our sweet boy is being well taken care of when we travel.”
“Another wonderful stay for Yote! He went for walks, received lots of attention, and observed some wildlife. Daniel & Rachel were extremely accommodating with our 1am pickup time from a midnight plane arrival!”
“Alexis & her husband were awesome! First time using Rover and happy we found them. The reviews are accurate! My winston boy was so happy and very comfortable. Already have another stay booked with her! ?????”
“Katherine was an amazing sitter! She made sure to send updates on how my cat was doing as well as pictures and she responded very quickly if I had any questions. Will definitely be rebooking !”
“We were so nervous about leaving Marshall with anyone. He is an almost 17 month old cockapoo that is totally spoiled. He has never been away from us over night. April and her husband (and their dog, Ollie) were absolutely wonderful. April is a very calm, quiet person who communicated with us how he was doing and sent lots of pictures. We are 100% satisfied and pleased!”
“Mary is so great! She is friendly, communicative, thorough and does a wonderful job keeping in touch and sending pictures. She was able to accommodate our last minute reservation and was flexible with pick-up. I could tell my girls had a ton of fun at Mary's house and came home tired and happy. I would definitely recommend Mary and will be using her again in the future!”
“Christine went above and beyond in so many ways to help us with our dog Knox. We were set to travel internationally when our plans to travel our dog changes and he was delayed for a few weeks. Christine took wonderful care of knox for 2 weeks—who got along perfectly with her dog. She made frequent trips to the dog park, baked special treats (with our concurrence), and sent frequent pictures. She managed a complex situation with the vet to get our paperwork to travel internationally. Through it all she was calm, collective and communicated exceptionally well. I recommend Christine without hesitation.”
About: Over the past 20 years, I’ve cared for three of my own dogs from puppyhood through their senior years, giving me firsthand experience with every stage of life—from potty training and high energy phases to gentle senior care. I’ve also raised kittens into senior cats, so I’m comfortable with feline personalities and needs as well. Beyond my own pets, I’ve regularly helped care for the dogs and cats of family and friends. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pet, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, love, and attention I gave my own. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits very naturally into my daily schedule. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, maintain their routines, and provide a calm, present environment while you’re away. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own space. I take a patient, gentle approach and pay close attention to each animal’s unique temperament—whether that means playtime and energy for a young pup or a quiet, reassuring presence for a shy cat. In addition to everyday care, I’m experienced in administering medications, including oral meds and insulin injections for diabetic cats. I understand how important consistency, attentiveness, and trust are when caring for pets with medical needs, and I’m confident providing that level of care. I’ve also been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends over the years, helping with walks, feedings, routines, and lots of affection. Every pet I care for is treated with the same love and attention I gave my own. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and your pet a calm, loving experience while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities, whether I’m caring for them in your home or welcoming them into mine. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a friendly, well-socialized dog and cats who are accustomed to other animals, creating a calm and welcoming environment. I’m mindful of introductions and each pet’s personality to ensure everyone feels safe and at ease. Dogs are always leashed for daily walks, and I have a large yard that allows for extra exercise and playtime in a secure space. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to closely supervise pets, maintain their routines, and give them consistent attention and companionship. When caring for pets in your home, I’m respectful of your space and committed to keeping your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any special preferences you share. I also offer meet-and-greets before bookings so you and your pet can feel comfortable and confident. Building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me, and I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in loving, attentive hands.
