“They helped me out TONS by watching my Shih Tzu for about 6 days. I’ve never used Rover before, so I was a little hesitant at first. Everything went smooth and they were flexible on drop off & pickup times since we drove all day. My dog seemed extremely comfortable @ pickup and we got several pics throughout the week! I would definitely book with them again.”
“Patti and Paul were absolutely amazing with Stanley!! They took care of and treated him like their own, we will definitely be bringing Stanley back to them, he already misses them!”
“Haley was an amazing host! Very communicative and kept us informed through the entire visit. Our Copper really seemed to enjoy his weekend stay! We will definitely use Haley’s services again! 5 ⭐️”
“So delighted with the love and care from Ariel who took in our cavapoo for a few day and nights. He had never been away from us before but I know that he had an excellent boarding experience and got to play all the time with his new four legged friends.”
About: We have each had dogs our entire lives. We currently have husky who is 1 1/2 years old and a 2 year old mini Australian Shepherd. They are both rescues. They are playful and enjoy being around other dogs. Free for plenty of walks and playtime during the day. I work from home with a very flexible schedule and will be able to keep a good eye on your dog. We have a pet friendly home inside and out. Our yard is fenced in. We have dog toys and balls all over. The dogs get plenty of exercise throughout the day.
About: I’ve always loved animals and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I’m patient, reliable, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own. I pay close attention to instructions, communicate regularly with updates and photos, and make sure every pet receives the care and attention they deserve. I work entirely from home, which gives me a highly flexible schedule to dedicate to pet care. I can easily accommodate potty breaks, mid-day walks, and constant companionship throughout the week. My weekends are completely open for extended playtime, boarding, or overnight house sitting. When watching pets in your home, safety and respect for your space are my top priorities. I stick strictly to your established routines, double-check that all doors and gates are secure before and after walks, and keep in constant contact with daily photo updates to give you complete peace of mind. My home is a cozy, pet-friendly space where your dog's safety is my number one priority. While I do not have a fenced yard, I always keep dogs securely leashed during all outdoor bathroom breaks and walks. I strictly follow your feeding routines and provide constant supervision to keep them safe and happy.
“Anghella was amazing! She was available on short notice, she was close, and Obi was awesome too! There was a miscommunication on my end and she was able to accomodate my needs. After meeting Anghella I did not feel anxious or worried about leaving our pup with her. Thank you Anghella!!! We will be using her in the future.”
“Rhiana is a fantastic dog sitter and ensures a safe and fun environment for your fur baby. We have booked with Rhiana before and she is nothing short of awesome - picture updates often, great communication, and you can tell our puppy had a blast each day with her. We highly recommend booking with Rhiana , she will make sure your dog is well loved and cared for.”
“Kathy was wonderful! She sent daily pictures and updates for me. I could see my dog was spoiled with attention and care. She didn’t want to leave. I would highly recommend Kathy!”
“First time utilizing Kyle’s services for my 2 miniature shitzhus and it was absolutely amazing. It’s the first time I had to use this kind of service and honestly, it’s been nothing short of exceptional. Kyle provided videos throughout the evening so I could feel comfortable with the whole process - it was nice to notice my dogs having fun with another dog Kyle was doggy sitting. Communication was very smooth. I highly recommend and will definitely be utilizing his services again.”
“Steven did a fantastic job with Duke! You can tell he was well taken care of. Duke was extremely happy-his tail was wagging like crazy when we picked him up. Duke also seemed to get along well with Steven’s pupper Annie. Steven was really personal and I will definitely use Steven again! It’s nice to have peace of mind leaving a family member for a few days! thanks Steven!”
“Bri I wanna thank you so much for your boarding service! You are God sent. You loved on my baby, kept me informed, sent pictures and treated him like your own. You took great care of my Brawny! I am looking forward to booking with you again! I appreciate you!!!”
“Maria was the absolute best! We’ve never boarded our dogs before so we were nervous but she was so amazing with them. She sent us updates and photos throughout their stay to show us how much fun they had. She was so great with keeping their schedule to help with normalcy. Her dog is also so cute! If we ever need anyone again we will definitely be going back to her!”
“When my girls are with Katie I know they are safe, happy, and healthy! They play and cuddle like true champions. I’m so pleased with Katie. Couldn’t be more thankful!”

“Off to a great start with Leah! I was looking for someone who could drop-in to spend time with my adult cat while I take short overnight trips during the week, and who was close by. Leah seems responsible and quickly picked up on what was most important to me!”
“Jessica has been fantastic during drop-in visits for our dog Buddy! It was clear the second she walked in our home that she knows and loves dogs. Buddy was instantly comfortable with her thanks to her warm and welcoming demeanor. Knowing Buddy has someone that we can trust to drop-in while we are at work is very comforting. Highly recommend Jessica!!”
“I have two cats, one being diabetic and Katie was able to help me last minute when my sitter fell through. She sent me multiple updates and took care of everything I needed! Would definitely recommend Katie again!”

“Marty provided care to our two cats while we are out of town. He is clearly enthusiastic about animals and communicated with us during and after his visits. Our only regret is that our cats didn’t come out when he visited ?”
“This was my first experience with Rover, and I was so blessed to have Tyanna as my cat sitter. She went above and beyond in every sense to the point where she even worked to find us more sitters for our cats. She even offered to come an extra day that wasn’t on our original schedule. She was so sweet and we will definitely look to her next time we take a trip!”
“Loved Ariel! Easy to work with, great personality, clean home and quick communication. Kept sending us pictures of our cat and showed how well he was getting along with all the other animals. We will definitely be working with her again for our next vacation. Thanks Ariel!”
“Absolutely awesome. Rachael had watched my babies on Halloween and one other time. That was enough to know that they would be in good health and well loved when I got back from my Christmas trip. I they sure were. Rachael was always here within 5 minutes of the time she was supposed to be. I will not hesitate to reach out to Racheal again in the future! I didn’t worry for one minute about them when I was gone.”
“Lauren visited Foxy every day to take care of her daily needs. It took a couple days for Foxy to warm up to Lauren but after that she got all the loving. Using Lauren was great and we will use her again.”
About: Hello! My name is Maria and I am very excited to meet your furry friend! I’ve raised 2 large dogs and 2 small dogs so I am comfortable with any size pet. I also worked at a doggie day care center where I worked with all size dogs for 8 plus hours at a time and facilitated friendly play so I am able to handle multiple dogs or cats at a time!

“Leslie is a true dog person. She took good care of our German Shepard while we were away. She had loads of dog toys, comfortable places for her to sleep... even the couch and seemed to treat her as she would her own dog. She kept us updated with pictures and videos throughout the day.”
“Andrew provided excellent care for our precious dogs. He kept them exercised, hydrated and rested. He sent pics and updates and made us feel so relaxed about our decision. Will definitely have Andrew watch our pups again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since i had my first dog in the first grade. A white Samoyed. When she was 3 she has 7 puppies! I was obsessed with them. We sold 6 and kept one. So we had 2 big white Samoyed’s that I had the responsibility of raising and attending to. They were my whole world. I’m always the first to be asked to watch someone’s dog because if there’s one thing I’m passionate about, it’s loving on dogs. I now have a mini dachshund who i love so much. I have experience with puppies, big dogs, little dogs, and senior dogs. I’m able to train puppies and care for senior dogs who would need more help in their day to day activities such as meds, frequent potty breaks, and patience. I also had an internship with the lake humane society in high school and have a special place in my heart for rescue dogs/cats who could use some extra love. I am currently a stay at home mom with my 8 year old who is in school and 1 year old who both love dogs I figured i could help out some dog momma or daddies who aren’t able to be home with them all day. I am able to let your dog out every couple hours. And even take them for brief walks. We have plenty of dog toys to share, bully sticks (while supervised), treats, and extra dog bowls if needed. My husband is a realtor so is home most of the time if i am not. I crate our dog at home when we leave. I also have a camera just in case to make sure she’s okay while we’re gone. We moved so we don’t have a fenced in yard anymore. But had leads if they want to stay outside for a longer period of time. I also live next to my parents who have a fenced in yard where i could take them if you feel more comfortable with that.

About: ✨ Personalized Cat Care ✨ Hello, friends and fur babies! I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember and have been a trusted Rover sitter since May 2023. While I grew up around dogs and volunteered at an animal shelter in high school, my professional pet-sitting journey has naturally led me to specialize in personalized, high-quality cat care. I’ve had the opportunity to care for cats of all personalities and needs, including multi-cat households, senior cats, and shy or anxious kitties. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, following detailed care routines, and providing patient, attentive support tailored to each cat’s temperament. My approach focuses on consistency, comfort, and enrichment. Each visit is intentional and unhurried, with thoughtful attention given to interactive play, mental stimulation, cozy companionship, and plenty of affection—always respecting your cat’s individual boundaries and preferences. If you’re traveling this holiday season and want peace of mind knowing your cat is receiving attentive, personalized care in the comfort of their own home, I’d love to connect. 🐾🤍 I am currently working full-time as a nanny and part-time as a bartender at a local restaurant. My schedule can be busy, but I am very flexible and will always do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs. Please feel free to message me to discuss your schedule—I’m happy to work with you to make sure your pet gets the care they deserve! I will care for your pet as if they were my own! I primarily offer drop-in visits and am highly detail-oriented and attentive when it comes to following instructions. My goal is always to ensure both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident in the care I provide. For first-time bookings, a scheduled “meet and greet” is required. This helps prevent any miscommunication about expectations, ensures your pet is comfortable with me, and confirms that I’m a good fit for your family.
“Kyle was absolutely wonderful! He helped me and my family out in a pinch!! He treated our dogs like his own and was an amazing communicator! He went out of his way to pick up our girls and sent many pictures. Highly recommend and we will use him again! 😊”

I do my best to adhere to those needs. inside the home pets are free to roam around designated areas, which are kept clean and pet friendly. I never take pets outdoors without their leash as anything could happen, we also have other pets in the area so to avoid any issues i always keep those in my care close by!

I have a fenced in yard and 3 dogs to keep your pup company! I also have a crate if needed. Can accommodate to any normal routines at home.
“I needed care for Lewey during the day when I had some things to do. Austin was available to watch Lewey. Very dependable, and he sent me a picture to update me on how Lewey was doing. It really makes me feel relaxed that Lewey is so excited when he sees Austin coming to the car to greet him. So thankful for this service as I don’t like to leave my dog at home alone for long hours especially on a beautiful day.”
“I know my fur baby is safe, loved, and cared for with Cheryl. She is very thoughtful and sends beautiful pictures and updates of my baby Owen.

I’m so grateful I found her.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog - sitting experience for our little Frenchie, Caillou! From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear he was in loving, attentive hands. We received thoughtful updates and photos; we could tell he was happy, comfortable, and truly cared for all weekend. Caillou came home relaxed, well cared for, and clearly adored - always the best sign. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was treated like part of the family, not just watched, but genuinely loved. We’re so grateful for the wonderful care and would absolutely trust them again without hesitation. Highly, highly recommend!”

Friendly, enthusiastic, good walker and communicator. I appreciated his ability to be flexible, too. Shankara evidently loved the walks. I will definitely book with him in the future as needs demand it! Thanks, Matt!”

About: I have a dog of my own, and I’m away for college so I don’t see him much. I would love to connect with other dogs so I can feel more at home! I am currently a college student, so I have plenty of time to walk or visit your dog! I am available Monday-Thursday after 5pm, Friday after 1pm, and selective weekends. I have an electric fence at home which my dog has adapted to. I also make sure to walk him and play with him in order to keep him active, since he is an older dog.
“Kelsey was absolutely awesome with my Jaxx! I was traveling for business and dropped him off at my parents. She was in the area, so I hired her because my parents are older and can’t necessarily exercise him the way that he needs to be. I will hire her again in the future.”
“Christy is very professional, flexible, and loving with my dogs!! Needed help with a couple walks per week with my pups with my new work schedule. It has been a very smooth process and very appreciative of her help!”

“They helped me out TONS by watching my Shih Tzu for about 6 days. I’ve never used Rover before, so I was a little hesitant at first.

I would definitely book with them again.”

About: I’ve always loved animals and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I’m patient, reliable, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own. I pay close attention to instructions, communicate regularly with updates and photos, and make sure every pet receives the care and attention they deserve. I work entirely from home, which gives me a highly flexible schedule to dedicate to pet care. I can easily accommodate potty breaks, mid-day walks, and constant companionship throughout the week. My weekends are completely open for extended playtime, boarding, or overnight house sitting. When watching pets in your home, safety and respect for your space are my top priorities. I stick strictly to your established routines, double-check that all doors and gates are secure before and after walks, and keep in constant contact with daily photo updates to give you complete peace of mind. My home is a cozy, pet-friendly space where your dog's safety is my number one priority. While I do not have a fenced yard, I always keep dogs securely leashed during all outdoor bathroom breaks and walks. I strictly follow your feeding routines and provide constant supervision to keep them safe and happy.
“First time utilizing Kyle’s services for my 2 miniature shitzhus and it was absolutely amazing. It’s the first time I had to use this kind of service and honestly, it’s been nothing short of exceptional. Kyle provided videos throughout the evening so I could feel comfortable with the whole process - it was nice to notice my dogs having fun with another dog Kyle was doggy sitting. Communication was very smooth. I highly recommend and will definitely be utilizing his services again.”
“Steven did a fantastic job with Duke! You can tell he was well taken care of. Duke was extremely happy-his tail was wagging like crazy when we picked him up. Duke also seemed to get along well with Steven’s pupper Annie. Steven was really personal and I will definitely use Steven again! It’s nice to have peace of mind leaving a family member for a few days! thanks Steven!”
“Maria was the absolute best! We’ve never boarded our dogs before so we were nervous but she was so amazing with them. She sent us updates and photos throughout their stay to show us how much fun they had. She was so great with keeping their schedule to help with normalcy. Her dog is also so cute! If we ever need anyone again we will definitely be going back to her!”
“When my girls are with Katie I know they are safe, happy, and healthy! They play and cuddle like true champions. I’m so pleased with Katie. Couldn’t be more thankful!”
“Kaitlynn has watched our golden retriever several times now and has been consistently awesome. She sends pictures and updates each day, and you can tell she gives personal attention and love to the dogs in her care. We are lucky to have found her!”
“Keri was fantastic! She provided boarding for our cat Cinder for a long weekend. At dropoff, Keri asked a bunch of insightful questions, and I felt A) immediately comfortable that she had petsat before (especially for cats), and B) that she really, truly likes animals and wants them to be comfortable in her home. Keri provided daily updates on Cinder's status and was even able to get Cinder back in her crate and ready to go for pickup. We'll definitely use Keri again when we go out of town!”
“We could not have asked for a better experience with Amanda as our dog sitter. It was clear he was happy during his stay from avideo and picture, which gave us peace of mind. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
About: Had a family dog my whole life, also have had dogs my whole adult life as well. Have had other pets such as rabbits etc Current empty nester who works full time but hybrid schedule so working from home several days per week.

“Mike did a great job watching my dogs. He sent pics, communicated often and took really great care of both of them. we were so pleased!!! I highly recommend him as a trusted person to take care of your dog family!!”
About: I've been around animals since I was very young and love all of them. They are part of my family and will be treated as such while they're with me. I enjoy going on walks and keeping pets happy and entertained. I believe it's very important to know your fur babies will be in great hands when boarding with me. My beloved dog Mario is no longer with me; he lived for 13 wonderful years and was the best dog anyone could ask for. I haven't been able to get another one since then. Watching and caring for other pets makes me happy and brings me joy. I currently work from home so my schedule is very flexible throughout the week. Working from Home is a blessing and has given me the flexibility to care for others pets. I do not have a fenced yard, but I live in a development that gives me plenty of opportunities to go for walks. As long as they come with a leash we will be walking.
“Colleen was a great match for our 8 month old Bernese! She was able to manage his puppy energy while having other dogs and sent daily updates while we were away! Would definitely trust Bogey to be with Colleen again ◡̈”
“Emily was so nice and Freya loved her time with her, she came back exhausted and was so happy to play with her dogs. It was a really laid back situation which exuded confidence and experience on Emily’s part. We will use her again in the future!”
