“We needed a last minute dog sitter and used the rover app for the first time to find someone close by and I got so lucky to find Chrissy to help us out. The dogs loved the big backyard and played so well with their own dogs. I will definitely use her again. ❤️”
“Katie was AMAZING! We have two dogs who are an absolute handful at home but with Katie they were so well behaved! She gave awesome updates and sent the best pictures!! Will definitely be using her again.”
“I simply cannot recommend Karen enough for your dog's vacay. She is WONDERFUL! I recent had a tough situation with my dog, Dex, coming down with a horrendous allergic reaction just in time for a business trip i had to make. And Karen stepped in, took care of him for the whole week, sent me pictures of him recovering. She was so enthusiastic to take care of him and also administer his medication on my behalf. I could not have left him with anyone else other than Karen, not even my friends, with the confidence that he will be well looked after. When I came back to town, Dex was almost back to his best and was healthy and happy! Karen, you ROCK!”
“William & Haley were amazing! They took great care of Auri and sent great updates and pictures. Auri loved her time exploring the fenced-in back yard. Thank you!”
“Sadie and Lola had the best stay!! The updates were great and we loved receiving pictures of our girls! Nothing is better than the reassurance knowing pups are in the best care!! My girls will be back soon!!”
“Abbie was so great! She did a very thorough meet and greet with my dog and hers so make sure everyone got along before I left. She kept me very updated with pictures and videos which was much appreciated. Maui was well taken care of and loved, and left me with total peace of mind while traveling. Cannot recommend Abbie more, and will be using her again!”
“Second time my dog stays with Cori and her family and certainly will not be the last! (she’s going back next weekend!) Cori is the best and will truly care for your fur baby.”
“Michelle is very friendly, great with communication, and had a good approach to encouraging my shy dog to eat while I was away. Her experience and knowledge of pets shows. Thank you Michelle for taking such great care of Reese!”
“Leann is wonderful! She watched our Denali almost immediately after we lost our Drew. Denali came home happy and a much more social dog than she had ever been. I think Leann helped her with the loss of her brother. Leann did a great job and exceeded our expectations.”
“Theo's stay with Ann was as good as can be. This was Theo's first time spending time with a person he did not know. We did a meet and greet with Ann prior to boarding Theo and our meeting went well. The day we left Theo with Ann after we left she texted us about 10-15 minutes saying Theo was alrady on her lap. We recieved a text the next day with a picture of Theo laying on a cuddly blanket and stating he had slept all thrrough the night and was a very good boy. We will definately utilize again in the future.”
“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Eliza. She is an Incredible dog sitter❤️. I 1000% would use her again. She was so kind and kept me up to date the whole time, also sent me pictures of my Rocky. Eliza took such good care of my boy. Your pup is in GREAT hands here!!”
“Sammy had a great stay and was very well taken care of!! Thank you for hosting and making Sammy feel like family! He loved going on walks with you and can’t wait to come back again! Great sitters and highly recommend !!”
“Dana was easy to communicate with and she sent me pictures of my dog every day. I was happy with Pidge's stay, felt like she was in kind and safe hands during my trip. I recommend Dana!”
“Patricia is the best!! Our dog absolutely loves staying with her. She takes him on multiple walks a day and plays with him. He has now stayed with her a couple of times & has had the best experience. Patricia gives us daily updates throughout his stay. Highly recommend!!”

“Brie has sat for my two medically needy and very old fat cats. She was an absolute life saver this last visit for us as my diabetic cat slipped into a glycemic episode and was very ill. She kept me well informed, went above and beyond in assisting us getting him to an ER vet and still Made sure to check in with our other cat on top of it all. She was so professional and calm and really helped me to stay sane through the whole ordeal. I am very happy to have had her with us then and she is my go to for my babies. Truly a life saver in every aspect.”
“We had a great experience with our drop-in visits! Communication was excellent, our dog was well cared for, and we really appreciated the updates and photos. It gave us peace of mind knowing our pup was in good hands. We’d absolutely book again.”
“Kayla did an excellent job watching our kitties. She is very caring and even my shy cat came out to greet her! This is our second time using Kayla and we will definitely use her again.”

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my genuine passion and dedication to animals. Caring for dogs and cats isn't just a job for me—it's what I want to dedicate my life to. I currently serve as the General Manager of a pet lodge, where I've worked since July 2024. Prior to that, I gained valuable experience at both an animal hospital and another boarding facility. I have hands-on experience caring for puppies, senior pets, and everything in between, as well as dogs of all breeds and sizes and cats of all personalities. I am comfortable administering a wide variety of medications, including pills, tablets, insulin injections, eye medications, ear medications, and more. I take immense pride in providing exceptional care and treating every pet as if they were my own. It would be an honor to care for your furry family members, and I promise they will receive the top-notch, five-star care, attention, and love they deserve. I am currently the General Manager of a boarding, daycare, and grooming facility, where I have the opportunity to work with pets and their families every day. While I truly enjoy what I do, my long-term goal is to build something of my own. I am working toward starting my own pet care business and eventually opening my own boarding and daycare facility. My passion for animals and commitment to providing exceptional care drive me to continue learning, growing, and pursuing that dream. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I have four dogs and a cat of my own, so at this time I primarily offer drop-in visits and dog walking services in your home. This allows me to give your pets the attention, exercise, companionship, and care they deserve while keeping them comfortable in their familiar environment. Whether it's a daily walk, playtime, feeding, or simply spending quality time with them, I am committed to making sure your pets feel loved and well cared for while you're away.
“This was my first time using Rover & so I really had no idea what to expect. Haley set up a time to meet me & my dogs before we left for vacation which worked out so well. My dogs were familiar with her when she came the first time, and by the end of the week they clearly loved her! My dogs had a couple issues during the week, and Haley was a trooper and not phased one bit. I would definitely recommend her for your pets!”
“Omg. She took the best care of my little kitty family. I felt very comfortable being away and my kitties being in her care. I never once worried about them or what was happening while I was away. She updates me with every visit, which was so appreciated!”
About: I've had a house full of pets since I was born. We always had at least 2 dogs, 2 cats, 2 turtles, and other pets in the house. Chance was my main pet (pitbull) who I personally trained and took care of from the age of 10 until I left for college. I now have a chihuahua named Taako and a fluffy cat named Magnus that I take care of. I've also helped watch cats and dogs of family and friends. I also spend my free time volunteering at Lake Humane Society. I have experience in reading cat temperment (don't want to get bit in a shelter!) and training dogs. I work full time 9-5 during the week from home but I can help during a lunch break, after work any time, or on weekends! I will work to whatever your comfort level is for your pets! My chihuahua is distrustful of strangers so I entirely understand if your animals need some time to warm up to me.
About: I grew up with dogs in my home for 24 years. Both puppies and seniors. I love all breeds and sizes. All dogs are adorable! I have my own pup, he has been trained by me and knows a number of tricks. I understand a dogs body language and understand if things need to be taken slow with your fur baby. I will work with aggressive dogs to a certain extent, with an increase in price. I currently work at a dog boarding facility! Book any day, any time (we can always adjust the times in conversation!) I am more than happy to check in and/or walk your loving pup! <3 I am always respectful and thoughtful. Animals are my FAVORITE in the world, they bring me so much happiness each and every day! They’re just so cute 🥹
About: I've taken care of cats since I was young . I now have 2 cats and they bring me so much joy. They have such unique personalities. I love helping my friends with their cats and feeding the cute neighborhood cats
“I brought my cat over there. Mary accepted my cat on just about no notice and kept him safe for 3 days. Mary was also very proactive in sending me photos to my phone. This was a nice gesture to keep my mind at ease that my cat was safe and it was also nice just receiving cute photos of my cat from time to time. Some of the photos included my cat bathing in the sun, resting on her couch, and pretty much just enjoying a little vacation. When I came to pick up my pet, she gave me the run down on his behavior and was also very kind enough to allow me to run around her house, move furniture, and to fetch my cat. If you have a pet, you can rest assure knowing Mary can take care of him while you are away. I cannot thank you enough. Will be seeing her in the event my cat needs another hotel. :)”

“So great! My puppy Steve loves going to Kimberly's house he has lots of playtime with the other dogs that are there, Kimberly keeps in contact with me sending pictures of my pup playing, she takes them on walks! I couldn't be more happy with the doggie daycare, Steve is much more happy and stimulated and I'm relaxed knowing he's being well taken care of and getting the love and attention he needs”
“Karen is always great with Ivy. Ivy is well taken care of and loves going to daycare there because of Karen's loving nature. I highly recommend her if you're looking for a sitter.”
“What a delight! Senator had a wonderful time with Mindy and canine babies. Mindy was so kind and ready to spend time with him. He was exhausted afterward, but….that’s a compliment. Hope to visit again soon.”
“Kerri was wonderful, I would definitely recommend her if you need someone to take care of your fur baby. Very patient, attentive, and all around genuine person. Got us out of a bind this holiday weekend with my Mikko. I can’t thank her enough.”
About: I have had 9 cats of my own. I have cared for kittens from age 2 weeks old, having to bottle feed them to senior cats who needed medication. I'm open with owners about things I find. I once noticed a cat I was caring for had worms and I relayed this to the owner. Another time, I noticed during a nail trim that a cat had a claw growing into its paw pad. The owner was so glad I caught these things and informed them. I have driven pets to the vet for a client. I have walked dogs, and cared for chickens and geckos. I am precise when following directions provided by the pet owner. I LOVE taking pictures of pets and will send them over every day. I have 4 cats of my own, so their care is a daily routine for me. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to care for other pets. I usually go to the clients' home for pet sitting cats or dog walking. Although, I have a fenced-in yard with a privacy fence, which allows me to have dogs over.
“Lisa is wonderful, we have used her for pet sitting overnight and now daycare and have nothing but positive things to say about her! Our dog comes home every time a happy (and tired) pup because he's had such a blast at her house.”
About: Hi! I'm Elijah and I'd love to care for your dog(s) whether you're going on vacation or simply need a sitter for the day. I'm a nursing student in my final semester and I'm returning to Rover after six years! I have one dog of my own, a 9-year-old mini schnauzer named Winston, along with two rabbits and a leopard gecko. My partner has two dogs of his own as well, a labrador named Nina and a shih-tzu mix named Lucky—both of them being seniors at ages 13 and 15! We live in a 2 bedroom house with a medium sized, fenced in backyard. I have gates and areas of the house that can easily be secluded if your pet would do better with limited access to other animals. Our dogs are all easy-going, surprisingly playful for their ages, and get along with other animals very well (although I'll still do introductions slowly and safely!). Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday are the 3 days I have classes and I'm always home after that! Tuesday and Thursday I have a 2-hour class, and Saturday is my long day with a 10 hour clinical so my bookings will be closed for that specific day. The animals in my home are left alone for very little time each week. If guest animals have to be left alone, I have gates along with two rooms I can secure the guest pet in if need be! If you utilize a crate for your animal, you can bring that as well for me to use if I must leave for a short time.
“Leeann was amazing with a last minute booking and being so flexible on drop off and pick up times. Thank you for finding a calm room for her to stay where she was comfortable too!”
About: Hi! I’m Anna, a dependable and attentive dog sitter offering walks, drop-in visits, and in-home pet care. If you’re looking for someone reliable and caring to treat your dog like family, I’d love to help. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a slower pace and extra attention. I focus on calm, consistent care that keeps your dog comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. I provide careful attention to feeding, walks, and instructions, and make sure pets get both exercise and companionship while you’re away. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your home and pet. I treat every dog with respect and genuine care, and I’m committed to a high-quality, reliable experience for both pets and owners. I have a flexible weekday schedule and am fully available during the day on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. I structure my week around pet care, which allows me to provide consistent walks, drop-ins, and reliable attention without rushing. This helps me maintain a calm, dependable routine for each pet I care for. Safety, trust, and consistency are my top priorities when caring for pets in their home environment. I carefully follow all care instructions, maintain routines, and ensure pets are always secure during walks, feedings, and drop-in visits. I treat every home with respect and care, and I communicate regularly with updates so owners feel informed and at ease. My goal is to create a calm, reliable environment where pets feel safe and well cared for.
About: I have fostered over 70 animals the past four alyears. Puppies, adult dogs kittens and cats. Also bunnies and guinea pigs! I have tons of experience with house training and crate training puppies. I volunteer at our local animal shelter weekly and have developed a strong bond with the rescue community. I also have experience administering medication. During the past two years I have met many animals , all with a different type of personality. I have been able to adapt and learn how to handle each unique personality. My time as a foster and shelter volunteer has really showed me what my true passion is! My schedule is very flexible and I'm usually able to accommodate last minute requests. Unless I have another client , my schedule is almost always open. I volunteer at the shelters on Tuesday mornings but I can always rearrange my volunteer days. My home is fenced in and I have crates for my own dogs, also extra crates for your dogs. My dogs have multiple play styles so I can adapt to just about any personality. I only ask that if your dogs are boarding in my home they are animal and kid friendly. If you're nervous about your dogs being around dogs you don't know, I understand. I can easily rotate the dogs time so they never even have to interact, as I have baby gates to keep them separated. I have a big fenced in yard so your dog will get plenty of play time. If you want boarding in your home I can do that too. I can provide plenty of love and play for them. Whatever you are comfortable with in your home just let me know! I also always will send tons of pictures. If you have puppies I can absolutely help with potty and also crate training if they aren't crate trained yet.
“Sadie and Lola had the BEST day playing with their new friends! I’ve had a lot of experience with Rover and could easily see that my girls felt welcomed and cared for throughout their stay! Jamie was quick and efficient in responding to all my questions. I received updates and pictures throughout the day and could see my girls were in the best of hands! Sadie and Lola will be back soon! I highly recommend Jamie!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities, providing feeding, walking, playtime, and medication support. Coming from a family that owns a veterinary hospital, I’m comfortable recognizing pet needs, handling health concerns, and ensuring safe, attentive, and loving care. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize their comfort, routine, and happiness while their owners are away. I'm currently working part time, so have plenty of time available for your pups! I am home often, so they will have limited time alone. I provide attentive, reliable pet care in both my home and clients’ homes depending on their needs and comfort level. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications or special instructions. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their pet’s environment calm, clean, and familiar to reduce stress. I also send regular updates and photos so owners feel confident and connected while they are away. In my home, pets receive a safe, supervised, and loving environment with plenty of attention and exercise.
About: Hi my name is Patrice. I'm a veterinary technician who loves being with animals even outside of my normal work day. If I could I would adopt a million pets but unfortunately that's not an option. I take pride in being able to help care for pets outside of my own. There's nothing more fulfilling than being able to play with fur babies when the owners cannot do so because of work. I am able to provide exercise time, medication administration, ear cleaning, and basic grooming. If you are in need of any of the above services feel free to reach out to me. I would love to get to know you and your fur babies and develop a life long bond. Pet care fits into my daily routine perfectly. I'm always with pets even in my dreams. Rather I am walking pets or meeting up for grooming appointments, I'm always with pets. I get a background of the pets home life and mimic that while they are with me. Routine works best with most pets. When you switch up what they are used to they do not do well.
About: I’ve had a dog of my own that I’ve taken care of for 11 years now! In the past I have also taken care of my neighbors cats while they were away. Although I have never taken care of another family’s dogs, they are my favorite animals in this world and I have spent a few years volunteering at dog shelters in the area where I take them on walks, play with them, and help with feeding them. I will be more than happy to help take care of ur pets while you are away and make new furry friends! I am currently unemployed and have a lot of time on my hands to take care of your pets while you are away! However, I am in search of a part time job, but that will still not take too much of my time. I am also totally available on the weekends if it is needed! I have a dog at home who is not too friendly with other dogs, so boarding is not really an option unfortunately. However, I am more than willing to care for your pets in your home and neighborhood! I will be able to crate your dog if need be and if course follow the rules of your house. Your pets will be well fed, walked, played with, and given all of my attention!

“Brie continues to be a godsend for us. Cora loves walking with her, and Brie's in depth knowledge of dogs and all animals is an extra bonus. Brie was even able to easily trim her nails ... Which all helps so much as I continue to recover from vaccine injury. Thank You, Brie!”

Relax while you're away knowing your furry family member(s) are well taken care of. I'm currently on summer break (I work in education) so my availability is very open. I also work a summer job at Riverbend, but that's only a few nights a month.

About: Throughout my pet sitting experience, I have neighbors, friends, and families I pet sit for on a regular basis. I've had experience with giving any necessary medications to dogs that include shots and pills. I'm currently working part-time hours at a bookstore and in school part time. I take classes online so I can be flexible with hours. I'm open Sundays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays for drop in visits and walks.

Some things I do that has often helped ease this anxiety is being available for around the clock care, doing some soothing activities like mat licking, and lots of belly scratches!
About: Animals have been so much the center of my life that I made it my career! I am a professional dog trainer with an education through Jean Donaldson's Academy for Dog Trainer's. Let me bring that experience to carrying for your best friend's when you need a set of extra hands. I have loved and cared for pets my entire life! Growing up we had cats, dogs, birds and lizards. Currently I have two Great Pyrenees and one cat of great personaity. They have been my guides in the wonderful world of clicker training. Ghost, my rescue dog, has given me a lot of experience with anxious, sensitive dogs that need a little more time and care. Where as Nanuk has shown me how to handle dogs with a ton of drive and intelligence. And how to harness that despite physical limitations. And my cat... well, he comes running whenever I get the treat bag and clicker and has his own variation on all the dogs tricks. ;) I look forward to meeting your pets and seeing what I can learn from them! I am currently working part time and happy to work with you on scheduling. My husband is also retired which allows me a lot of flexibility for being away from home I do not care for client pets in my home. When is someone else's home I will do my best to continue your pet's usual routine while you are away.

“We needed a last minute dog sitter and used the rover app for the first time to find someone close by and I got so lucky to find Chrissy to help us out. The dogs loved the big backyard and played so well with their own dogs. I will definitely use her again. ❤️”
“Katie was AMAZING! We have two dogs who are an absolute handful at home but with Katie they were so well behaved! She gave awesome updates and sent the best pictures!! Will definitely be using her again.”
“I simply cannot recommend Karen enough for your dog's vacay. She is WONDERFUL! I recent had a tough situation with my dog, Dex, coming down with a horrendous allergic reaction just in time for a business trip i had to make. And Karen stepped in, took care of him for the whole week, sent me pictures of him recovering. She was so enthusiastic to take care of him and also administer his medication on my behalf. I could not have left him with anyone else other than Karen, not even my friends, with the confidence that he will be well looked after. When I came back to town, Dex was almost back to his best and was healthy and happy! Karen, you ROCK!”
“William & Haley were amazing! They took great care of Auri and sent great updates and pictures. Auri loved her time exploring the fenced-in back yard. Thank you!”
“Sadie and Lola had the best stay!! The updates were great and we loved receiving pictures of our girls! Nothing is better than the reassurance knowing pups are in the best care!! My girls will be back soon!!”
“Abbie was so great! She did a very thorough meet and greet with my dog and hers so make sure everyone got along before I left. She kept me very updated with pictures and videos which was much appreciated. Maui was well taken care of and loved, and left me with total peace of mind while traveling. Cannot recommend Abbie more, and will be using her again!”
“Second time my dog stays with Cori and her family and certainly will not be the last! (she’s going back next weekend!) Cori is the best and will truly care for your fur baby.”
“Michelle is very friendly, great with communication, and had a good approach to encouraging my shy dog to eat while I was away. Her experience and knowledge of pets shows. Thank you Michelle for taking such great care of Reese!”
“Leann is wonderful! She watched our Denali almost immediately after we lost our Drew. Denali came home happy and a much more social dog than she had ever been. I think Leann helped her with the loss of her brother. Leann did a great job and exceeded our expectations.”
“Sammy had a great stay and was very well taken care of!! Thank you for hosting and making Sammy feel like family! He loved going on walks with you and can’t wait to come back again! Great sitters and highly recommend !!”
“Patricia is the best!! Our dog absolutely loves staying with her. She takes him on multiple walks a day and plays with him. He has now stayed with her a couple of times & has had the best experience. Patricia gives us daily updates throughout his stay. Highly recommend!!”
“Such an amazing experience! Our dogs loved being there they got a spa day! And a nice hike in they were definitely worn out when they got home which I loved coming back from a trip! Drop off and pick up was very easy. We absolutely will book them again.”
“Kym took such great care of Amelia! She and her family were fantastic. My husband and I had no worries at all after dropping Amelia off to Kym and were treated to some photos and updates during her stay :)”
“Tonia is the best. She took exceptional care of my anxious ittle diva. She loved on and cared for Eva like one of her own. I was a little nervous about leaving her but I was quickly put at ease by Tonias calm caring demeanor. Eva loved her time with Tonia and the fur gang. Tonia is patient and understanding. I would definitely use her again.”
“Monte did a wonderful job keeping tabs on my pup! He was kind and welcoming with the introductions, as well as his furry companion. Definitely will be contacting Monte again in the future.”
