“I had no hesitation leaving my mutt with Tina. She’s well prepared and loves all doggies. She kept in touch and let me know how things were going. I would gladly use her help again. Rover employees were friendly and helpful, the robo texts were a little excessive (duplicates.). So all in all good first experience! Thanks”

“Pam and her family are true dog lovers! My dogs love to come stay here. It’s their home away from home. The backyard is large & fenced. Plenty of space to run & play safely. Pam’s home is dog-friendly & she doesn’t mind sharing the couch or even a bed with cuddly pup. She sends plenty of photos so I can see how they are getting along. She responds quickly & honestly answers all my questions. It’s a wonderful peace of mind to have Pam & her family caring for my Maggie & Beau!”

“Thank you Cristi for taking care of our Pup while we were gone! Thank you for messaging me promptly and sending me pictures, too! We will definitely use your services again in the future!”

“Lacey was awesome!! She was extremely sweet and I immediately felt comfortable leaving my puppy with her. She was always very quick to respond and asked a lot of questions beforehand to ensure she was providing the best care possible. Lacey sent lots of pictures and videos throughout the stay which I greatly appreciated and it gave me peace of mind. My dog came home exhausted from all the playtime, walks and a dog park visit. Lacey exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend her to care for your pet. I will definitely book Lacey again for my precious pup!”

“Scott was able to take a quick last minute booking. He was super kind to my very flighty dogs. He had the dogs comfortable enough that they were actually resting in their dog beds. Very thankful for his willingness to help in a pinch.”

“Our dog sitter was fantastic. They were very flexible with our unexpected flight delay and communicated promptly throughout our trip. We truly appreciated the reliability and care. We’ll definitely book again!”

“Joe is our regular sitter for our senior dog when we go out of town. Leaving our dog shamu used to be stressful because of his separation anxiety, but Joe and him have formed a bond and now traveling is stress free for both shammy and us. He enjoys his stays with Joe and Duke so it is like he is getting a vacation too!”

“Jill was easy to communicate and always responded right away. I was able to set up a meet in greet ahead time which made the transition when we left or pups with Jill while we were gone. See sent a daily update on how they were doing which was much appreciated.”

“Samantha took great care of our two spoiled golden retrievers. She communicated and sent pictures daily. Our pups have a few special needs and Samantha made sure they were completely taken care of and well loved at the same time. I highly recommend Samantha as an awesome sitter. We will use her services again in the future. Thank you!!”

I have a car that I can take dogs to the park and walk as well as being able to get to clients houses. I take care of all animals as if they are my own.
“Kyla proved to be trustworthy from the moment we met. She adeptly managed Remington's size and temperament, making me feel very comfortable to leave him overnight. In addition, she was quite responsive to communication, flexible with both drop off and pick up times. I am eager to board Remington with her again.”
“Darah took wonderful care of Mysti while I was out of town. Daily updates and photos were sent to me and I could see how content Mysti felt in her home. Will definitely book pet visits with Darah again for future trips trips away from home.”

“This was our 1st time stay with Jamie and could not have had a better experience. Our dog Mocha is 14 years old with requires medication on a regular basis. Jamie made sure she had all her medication just as requested and provided regular updates (photos/videos) to assure us she was doing well. Mocha enjoyed the companionship of the other dogs as well Jamie's family. We felt at ease with everything from the beginning and would highly recommend Jamie to care for your pet.”

About: My family always owned pets and I'm the only person that my old roommate trusts to dogsit for them. I love the company of pets. I work fully remote from anywhere with cellular coverage or WiFi and only have rare times when I absolutely have to be in meetings so I have a lot of flexibility to make time for other things. If it's okay with you, I would like to let your pet free to roam around your house just as if you were home. I love petting them and having chats while I'm working. I always set reminders for the meal times and potty breaks you request to make sure they are pampered as much as you want. No sharing of human food, only their approved diest and treats.
About: I treat every pet like they’re my own, providing patient, reliable, and personalized care based on their unique needs and routine.

As a freelance photographer, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and attention to pet care throughout the day.

I provide pets with a safe, comfortable, and loving environment while following their normal routines. I love giving lots of cuddles, attention, and affection to make sure every pet feels happy and cared for.

“Samantha did a great job checking in on our cat, Louie. On a previous vacation, he came to a cat with a UTI because the person we hired (not through Rover.com) did not clean his box properly. Samantha kept us up to date on how Louie was doing and kept his boxes clean. We came home from vacation to a happy and healthy cat. I will definitely use Samantha again!”


“Isabella visited us to get acquainted with our cats and so I could point out their food, water and litter supplies. Everything went smoothly, and our teo boys were well cared for during the three days we were gone. I will definitely use her again.”

About: Since before I could speak I loved animals; growing up in rural Ohio on a pig farm we always had dogs, cats, horses, cows, goats and many reptiles and small mammals running around. I've always had a strong love for caring for animals and especially dogs because I love their endless happiness for the world around them. I'm very comfortable around any size and any breed of dog or cat, or to take care of any other pet need you might have! Aside from growing up around more animals than I can count, I used to volunteer at my local animal shelter and I am comfortable with learning any new needs your pet may have. I currently work night shift 4 days a week so I will be available during the daytime for your pet needs! I will be available to walk, do house check ins and feed/water your pets! Although I'm not currently in a position where I can have my own pet or pet sit from where I live, Im very passionate about working with animals and I'm excited to start meeting your babies and helping you give them the best care you can from your home.

“Dory went above and beyond for our furry family members, staying around to ensure the pups were calm and safe feeling with all of the fireworks happening around the 4th of July. She was very prompt and dependable, and even freshened our duck’s water each day. She was a trooper during a power outage, and cleaned up an accident one of our older dogs had while we are away. She was very communicative and observant, and I felt she loved our girls just as much as we do. We highly recommend Dory! Th”

“Emily did an excellent job taking care of my three kitties! My crew liked her from the start and I appreciated the photos, videos, and updates she shared. She even vacuumed up litter and cardboard messes before I got home. I could relax while away knowing that my kitties were getting the love and attention they needed. I'll definitely be using Emily in the future!”

“I don’t leave reviews but Kayla went way above and beyond for me dealing with my dog getting sick and cleaning it and handling my injured dogs bandages coming off and reapplying them for me! I couldn’t give more praise to her and wouldn’t recommend anyone else if you want the best care for you’re pet!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Gratiot
“My two dogs and I have had great experiences with Tina, she takes excellent care of them. The first few daycare visits were only my dog who has high anxiety and separation issues. During these trips I received regular messages from Tina and would speak to her at the end and felt very comfortable with how the dog was doing there. My dogs seems to enjoy going to Tina’s for day care and gets excited when we arrive at her home. I recently decided to try bringing my second who is older for day care, he has some health issues that limit his mobility and he is mostly blind. Tina went out of her way to accommodate his needs and kept me updated on how he was doing during his stay. I felt comforted by how much care she has shown both of my dogs, how willing she has been to communicate with us about their stays, and how much she talks to us about them when we pick them up and drop them off.”

About: Growing up I have always cared for our family pets. Today I have 3 rescue dogs of my own. My pups are apart of my family. I volunteer to transport dogs to a safe homes. Animals of any type depend on their humans to care for them. When their humans can’t be there for some reason they still need that special care and attention. I have always struggled when leaving my dogs to go away. What do I do with them? Who will care for them like I do? I would like to help people to be at ease knowing your pet will be well taken care of in my hands because I understand what it is like to have that worry. I will care for your pet as though they are mine.
“Cassie was amazing!! This was Tilly's first pet sitter experience and Cassie made everything great!! Highly recommend Cassie!! She will be my go to if I ever need a pet sitter again!! 10 STARS!!!!”

About: I have lived on a farm since I was born until college, and my parents still live on one. I love all animals and always willing to help out. I don’t mind if they are wild puppies or older dogs we will get though the walk or stay together! I only work 2 days a week, so my schedule is pretty open! I have a very large back yard not fenced in, but I can take out all dogs on a leash.I have one other dog that your dog can play with or we can play inside to make sure everyone stays safe! I plan on walking them throughout the neighborhood. If I go to a clients house whatever the clients wants me to do to best care for their dog I will.
About: I treat every dog like family—because that’s how I care for my own! I’ve spent years caring for my dogs and those of friends and family, especially while they were out of town. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, including playful puppies and slower-moving seniors who need extra patience and love. Whether it’s belly rubs, slow strolls, or high-energy playtime, I adjust to meet each dog’s unique needs. Your pup will be pampered, safe, and loved—just like they deserve! Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle. I work part-time as a home health caregiver three days a week. On those days, I have a split schedule—just 3 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon, with a break in between. This gives me plenty of time to care for pets throughout the day. Outside of those hours, my schedule is very open, allowing me to give your pet the love, attention, and care they need—whether it’s for walks, playtime, or just keeping them company while you're away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every dog like my own—loved, pampered, and well cared for. I make sure they have a calm, clean, and secure environment, free of hazards and full of attention. If I’m in your home, I respect your space and your pet’s routine to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs, from meal times and medication to play and potty breaks. I also send regular updates so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. With my background as a home health caregiver, being attentive, responsible, and trustworthy is second nature to me—qualities I bring to every pet I care for.
About: I am 24, I’ve grown up with all kinds of animals since I was a baby and have grown up with 20+ dog breeds, I’ve raised and trained Puppies with my mom for years. I have a huge heart for all animals and don’t have any allergies, I do have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 1 ball python and a decent sized backyard. I give all animals plenty of love, attention and playtime, there is forest and field parks around me so if your dog is good on a leash I can take them there to run around and play, my neighborhood is quiet and calm all the time other than dogs barking few times throughout the day, they will love it here. I’m an animal nerd and know how to care for almost any animal including reptiles, amphibians and bugs! I currently have no job due to my agoraphobia making it very hard to work and have a steady income, I am available all day every day unless I have plans I have a fenced in yard but live in a small house, all of my animals are people and pet friendly so they will not show any aggression towards you or your pets
About: I have had animals my entire life so there is never a time where I wasn't around one. I also trust them more than people so therefore, they trust me more than most as well. I am a stay at home mom with 2 under 2 so I am always home and most likely available but I will probably have my children when I do any services on this app. I have 4 cats and 4 dogs of all colors and a variety of personalities so I am used to chaos. I have a fenced yard, pools and toys everywhere for my dogs to run around. My cats have their own room with all the beds and scratching posts they desire. I feed them on a timed schedule but have full water bowls all around the house for them to drink at their leisure all day. I have furniture set up specifically so they can look out windows and there are no rules when it comes to where they can sleep.

“This is my first time using Rover and Ashliegh was great to work with. My dog had a great time playing with her kids and she sent updated pictures often (which I appreciated). Happy to have found her!”

“Sam is heaven sent ! Im a new puppy owner and I was so nervous about leaving Lulu but , Sam made me feel so comfortable and I loved how she kept me updated with pics and videos of how happy Lulu was in her care . This has been the best experience and I will continue to use Sam as a sitter for my Babygirl ☺️”

About: I have had the wonderful opportunity to spend time with many dogs of so many breeds and can’t see myself stopping! There such loving animals. I’m currently working full time and will have plenty of time to play with the Dogs. I can even take them to work with me! I have a wide open back yard and plenty of room for dogs to run. I live on a small farm with a few other animals. I’m a very trustworthy person. I’m also a kennel technician/Dog trainer so I spend time with dogs almost every day.
“Shannan is excellent at communist and was willing to work with me on drop off and pickup timing, which I really appreciated. Bonus points for having prior experience working at a doggie daycare. Really helped to facilitate a smooth transition for Serena. Best of all was the fact that Serena had a giant smile on her face when I came to pick her up! Thanks so much Shannan!!!”

About: Over the past 15 years I've adopted, raised, and cared for multiple dogs. From the time we adopted them, they were very much a part of our family, and were always treated as our additional children. They get all the snuggles they want, discipline and training, and love beyond measure. There is never a hungry, lonely dog in our house. All three of our children have been raised with dogs so they are comfortable around them, and love their companionship as well. I've had dogs that were trained with beepers/shock collars so would be comfortable using your dog's collar as well while they're with us. I have also worked as a nurse for 12 years so can respond to medical needs, give medication, and administer first aid. We currently have a puppy in our home that we are training, so your doggo would have a companion while with us. I will give lots of hugs, snuggles, treats (if you're ok with it), and positive affirmations. We have 5 acres of land that I would happily let your furbaby roam and explore. I am home with our 2 year old son and our puppy during the day so your doggo would always have someone to watch over him/her. If I have to run out for whatever reason, I am happy to take your little one on a car ride with us. Or if you prefer, I could utilize our extra crate to safely keep him/her in while I'm out for a short trip. Because of having 3 kids and a puppy in our home, I would have to require your doggo to be dog and kid- friendly. Other than that, I'm very flexible and will do my best to accommodate your specific needs. I am currently a stay-at-home mom to a 2-year-old (and a puppy) so would have plenty of time to interact with, love on, and care for the needs of your dog. Our yard is not fenced, but the plus side is that we have 5 acres of land to roam. I would still likely keep your dog on a leash while outside since he/she it's not accustomed to the boundaries of our property. We do have an extra crate large enough for a medium-large sized dog that can be used to safely house your doggo when/if needed.
“Kyla is AMAZING! My husband and I were in need of a sitter last minute and Kyla was quick to respond and super great at updates and communication. Our dog has been shedding a lot lately and Kyla took the time to groom her which was so kind! I can’t recommend Kyla enough for your dog sitting needs 🐶!”
“Rommel can be pretty shy around new folks so I am always nervous about introducing him to new people. He also isn’t a very affectionate dog (he only likes being petted when he first wakes up, then he has has enough and doesn’t really want that). When I went to pick him up he was loving all over them. I haven’t seen him warm up to anyone as quickly and as completely as he did here. What a wonderful experience!”

“Jodi accepted my last minute request and did an amazing job caring for our pup! Benny is pooped after playing all day and her backyard is great for dogs that like to sniff and have space to run. Thanks again!”

“Isabelle was fantastic! Took the job last second when original plans fell through and left me in a bind while being out of town. Isabelle provided photos and status updates for each walk. Being a 1st time Rover user, I was nervous, but Isabelle made me feel like my dog was completely taken care of and helped ease my mind. Would 100% recommend her and I will rebook with her in the future when needed. THANK YOU AND GREAT JOB ISABELLE!”

I have a newly adopted dog that has some behavior issues and I wanted someone with some experience and Kayla has been able to handle anything that comes up.

She was always very quick to respond and asked a lot of questions beforehand to ensure she was providing the best care possible. Lacey sent lots of pictures and videos throughout the stay which I greatly appreciated and it gave me peace of mind. My dog came home exhausted from all the playtime, walks and a dog park visit. Lacey exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend her to care for your pet. I will definitely book Lacey again for my precious pup!”

“Our dog sitter was fantastic. They were very flexible with our unexpected flight delay and communicated promptly throughout our trip. We truly appreciated the reliability and care. We’ll definitely book again!”

“Joe is our regular sitter for our senior dog when we go out of town. Leaving our dog shamu used to be stressful because of his separation anxiety, but Joe and him have formed a bond and now traveling is stress free for both shammy and us. He enjoys his stays with Joe and Duke so it is like he is getting a vacation too!”

“Jill was easy to communicate and always responded right away. I was able to set up a meet in greet ahead time which made the transition when we left or pups with Jill while we were gone. See sent a daily update on how they were doing which was much appreciated.”

“Samantha took great care of our two spoiled golden retrievers. She communicated and sent pictures daily. Our pups have a few special needs and Samantha made sure they were completely taken care of and well loved at the same time. I highly recommend Samantha as an awesome sitter. We will use her services again in the future. Thank you!!”

“Kyla proved to be trustworthy from the moment we met. She adeptly managed Remington's size and temperament, making me feel very comfortable to leave him overnight. In addition, she was quite responsive to communication, flexible with both drop off and pick up times. I am eager to board Remington with her again.”
“Darah took wonderful care of Mysti while I was out of town. Daily updates and photos were sent to me and I could see how content Mysti felt in her home. Will definitely book pet visits with Darah again for future trips trips away from home.”

“This was our 1st time stay with Jamie and could not have had a better experience. Our dog Mocha is 14 years old with requires medication on a regular basis. Jamie made sure she had all her medication just as requested and provided regular updates (photos/videos) to assure us she was doing well. Mocha enjoyed the companionship of the other dogs as well Jamie's family. We felt at ease with everything from the beginning and would highly recommend Jamie to care for your pet.”

“Krystie goes above and beyond! Constant updates and communication, and my pups were so happy the whole time. She was very accommodating when we had to adjust our pickup time and made it happen! We will recommend Krystie to all of our friends and family and we will board with her again!”

“Jodi and Reya are great to work with! They cared for our two senior citizen dogs for a week. We received lots of photos and updates that put us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our time away. Both dogs returned home calm and happy! We would recommend them and would be very happy to work with them again!”
