“From the moment we stepped into Cristi’s home, we could tell our pup felt comfortable and loved. Cristi sent frequent updates and photos through out the stay. She really went out of her way to make sure we knew our dog was getting spoiled and loved on while we were away which is all we could’ve ever wanted! Will definitely be using Cristi everytime we need a dog sitter!!!!”
“She took great care of our girl Sadie, she was great at sending updates and pictures, made our trip worry free. Sadie had a great time with Lauren and her dog Nala! Will definitely use Lauren again!”
“Exceptional sitter ! Elizabeth went above and beyond in her care for Tucker ! Very professional and did a great job communicating. Would definitely recommend !”
“Karen truly is the best. We have a very energetic pup and finding someone to watch him has not been the easiest. Karen is so kind and caring with our dog just loves her!”
“Madison and her sister were so great with our boys! Great back yard and we loved all the picture updates! No doubt in our minds that they were very loved and taken care of during our week vacation. So happy our boys now have a ‘home away from home’ :)”
“Kimberly and her family were so good to our little Molly that I was worried she wouldn’t want to come home. It was a true blessing finding Kimberly on Rover. I hope she has room for her the next time I need a dog border. Thank you so very much Kimberly.”
“Stacey and her family took great care of our pups. She sent photos and gave regular updates of how they were doing. Both dogs were happy and comfortable in their home.”
“I loved getting the picture updates and seeing Apollo playing with the kids and other dog while we were away. It really helped knowing he was being cared for by a loving family and not just held in a kennel. Thank you so much and I hope you will care for Apollo again.”
“Felt so comfortable with our puppy being with Justen. He communicated with us every day and made sure King felt at home. Justen is a very nice person I highly recommend him if you need someone to take care of your fur baby.”
“We felt very comfortable our pup was getting the best care while staying with Ellen. She had great communication throughout the process and we so appreciated the pic/video updates she shared with us!”
“Katie was great! She was able to watch our Bichon even though it was super short notice. When we arrived to pick him up next day we found him cuddling on the couch getting all the attention he could have ever wanted. We definitely recommend her services and we will definitely ask her to watch him again! Thanks so much!”
“Deanna took great care of our pup and was sure to send lots of updates with cute photos and videos. Our dog had fun playing with hers and running around in her spacious yard!”
“Rose was AMAZING! This was the first time I’ve ever dropped my pup off at someone’s house and I was so emotional about it. But she sent so many pictures and videos and made Athena so comfortable and happy at her house. Communication was fantastic before boarding and during. I honestly can’t praise her enough for everything she did. 10/10 recommend for your dogs needs!!”
“We could not have asked for a better sitter! :) It was hard to leave our pup behind but Laura made us feel at ease with regular updates and sweet photos throughout his weekend stay! Our rambunctious golden clearly had a blast—especially playing with little Smitty, Laura’s adorable pup! Laura and her family genuinely seemed to enjoy having Bodhi in their home, and that meant a lot to us! Thank you, again! Highly recommend!!”
“Alex was the first host I used on Rover. I was a bit worried about using this app, but Alex made my first experience amazing! She is so friendly and truly has a heart for animals. I have already booked with her a few times since and my doggo loves to stay with her. She is very flexible and has even dropped my dog back off to me. I can’t recommend her enough! Thank you Alex for taking such good care of Amani!”
About: Hi I’m Zoë! I love all animals, big and small and have been around them my whole life. >I have owned many different types of animals: dogs, cats, fish, a ferret, guinea pigs, a hedgehog, ect... >I have experience with a spectrum of ages, sizes, and breeds of dogs. I am good with puppies in training, as well as senior dogs who need accommodations. >Right now I have a dog (Bailey, 3), a farm cat, a fish, and also a flock of ducks. >I also offer yard clean up services and homemade dogfood! >I have been working for Rover since 2023 after I graduated from OSU >I moved to Fairfield County in 2024 I currently work part time at a greenhouse and run my own business. Most of my days are very flexible and I am open to new short and long term clients! On Visits: I’m down stop in and visit your dog, or take them out on a walk in the yard or neighborhood. Feeding, playing, walking, trick training, giving medicine, and having hang time are all in my comfort zone. I can follow specific directions and trust my gut instincts. I love all dogs, big and small. They all have different personalities and I like to take my time to learn a dog and their preferences and tendencies. I always bring a treat with me on meet and greets if allowed, and I understand dog behavior enough to interpret their mood. For Dog Boarding: At my house, we have baby gates to separate the floors of the house, the cat stays upstairs most of the time. I like to have dogs meet on leashes or through a gate, I never leave unfamiliar dogs alone together, and my house is very dog friendly, with hardwood and linoleum and not much floor clutter. Outside, my dog is off leash trained (I know I am spoiled), but all other dogs I keep on a leash if we are outside or on an 100ft rope when we take walks through the field.
“Joy filled in when our regular sitter was on vacation and I can’t recommend her enough. We got daily updates (at minimum) and lots of pictures during our dogs’ week-long stay. Communication was great and the dogs were so loved on! She was very accommodating and has a perfect space for pup sitting. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again and hope we have another chance!”

“Ava was great with my kitten. She's pretty young and needed extra attention and Ava was a great companion for her. Would absolutely use her in the future.”
“Danielle is great! Went out of town for a week and she dropped in daily to feed and check on our cats. She constantly updated me about the pets and followed instructions we left for them. She is great!”
“We have used Krystal multiple times now, she is great with our cats! When we come home, they are happier to see us than with anyone else. They are so comfortable and happy and she knows how to care for them how they need.”
“Alexa did a fabulous job! She was a life-saver— she came last-minute a day early when we accidentally screwed up our schedule. The cats loved her and she went above and beyond sending us additional videos and messages. We will definitely rebook!”
“Madie was awesome! Accommodated a last minute request and provided great communication the entire time I was away. Would definitely use her services again.”
About: I’ve had animals my entire life and bring both experience and genuine care to every pet I watch. I was raised on a farm surrounded by animals, and I’ve owned dogs for most of my life, including a small dog I cared for over 16 years. In the last 5 years we have added 2 cats to our pack and an 8-month-old Golden Retriever puppy. I’m very comfortable with puppy energy, routines, and reinforcement of basic training. I also work as an intervention specialist at Bridgeway Academy, which has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and ability to understand behavior — skills that translate naturally to animal care. I have two years of pet sitting experience for family and friends and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
“Brianna was amazing! She took great care of our dog while we were gone. She was always easy to reach and communicate with, and promptly responded to any questions we had. She sent us videos and photos while we were away and our dog looked so happy in all of them. I would highly recommend her, and we will definitely book with her again.”
“This was my first time ever using a petsitter. I was worried that with Lily needing a pill crushed up and added to her food that it was going to be hard to find someone. Chloe was amazing. I gave her all the instructions, showed her where everything was and she showed up on time for each meal. We take weekend trips here and there and I'm hoping this will be the start of a great connection for Lily and Mistletoe.”

“Charity is an amazing sitter! She takes care of my three kitties in amazing trash, and I know that they’re going to be treated well. I use her multiple times a year, and can’t be happier… Try her, you will like her!”

“This was my first time leaving my pup Reuben with a sitter and Zoe was just the sweetest! She made me feel so comfortable leaving Reuben with her! He seemed like he had a nice, relaxing day when I picked him up which was awesome because sometimes he can be a bit nervous!”

About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life and have always played a large part in taking care of them. With my love of pets I became a Veterinary Technician and I've worked in the Veterinary field for over 16 years. I've worked in general practice and emergency. Along with working in Vet Med I have always done petsitting. I have also taken care of rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, ferrets and a bearded dragon! I have also had foster dogs and kittens and helped with rescue work. I do work full time so my availability during the week can be limited, especially during the day. I am available any time satrudays, sundays, and wednesdays. And I am available Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays before 8am and after 6pm. I like to keep your pet's needs in mind. If they are a little more timid, then I will go slow and take the time for them to trust me. If they are active and ready to go, then we will have a fun time playing right off the bat. I will make sure I follow any directions or care instructions you leave for your pet. And I will always love and treat your pet like it is my own!
“Samuel loves going to see Rosemarie. He runs straight up to the door in the morning. I know he's being left in good hands. Rosemarie always communicates several times a day by sending pictures and giving me updates on how the day is going. Reliability is a huge thing for me and I never have to worry. When we book with her, she always comes through. She also communicates clearly what her availability is and keeps me updated on future dates she may not be available. I appreciate her so much. If you need a sitter that your animal will love and you can feel more than comfortable leaving them with, Rosemarie is the one!!”

About: Have grown up and cared for dogs all my life. Currently own a sweet basset boy! Want to be able to share my love for animals and help pet owners!

“Ashleigh and family took care of our 12 week old Cairn Terrier puppy while we took a day trip to visit family out of town. She seemed instantly at ease with him, her daughters were obviously very good with dogs and we had little doubt our pup would enjoy his "camp" experience. He did and even made friends with their pug. We had been looking for a sitter during the week and gladly would go with Ashleigh if it was easier on the commute. Zero concerns and I highly recommend trying them out.”
About: I will walk and work with your dog to teach manners with positive reinforcement. I have trained 3 danes, plus labs growing up. Lots of compliments and praises on my current pup, from former trainers! Id love to be able to pass on some of my knowledge and experience to anyone who needs help. We have a large yard, though not fenced, I will go outside with them each time to use the bathroom. This is what we always did with our dogs in the past, so that is not a new concept for us. :) I have three kids, a 11yo, 5yo, and 3yo. Your dog must be good with kids and other animals, and socialized around sounds/noises as my house is loud sometimes. Please let us enjoy your animal while you're away! Thank you much! I am available for at least three 25 minute drop in visits each week day. I could come by beginning at 9am. I'd love to help while you're away. We have one 3 year old Great Dane, neutered male. One 1.5 year old male neutered domestic cat. Both are good with other animals and children. I will love on your pets, and if appropriate allow my kiddos to partake as well, as I am also teaching them animal knowledge.
“I was so pleased with the services provided by Amber while watching my little one. She interacted with her wonderfully and gave her lots and lots of attention. Amber kept me updated with pictures and messages and I feel truly comfortable with leaving my dog with her, and I look forward to the next opportunity.”
“Breslin had a great time and was very tired afterwards. She also updated me throughout the day and made time to fit him into her schedule somewhat last minute. Will leave Breslin with her again if needed ?”

“Wow! Zoe is tremendous! I was very hesitant in using Rover with my best buddy Utah because he was getting walked every day by a family friend since he was a puppy. He is now going to be 4 years old in July. The dog walker he had decided to retire from her daily walks with Utah. I had to find someone great to walk Utah on a daily basis. After reading the reviews for Zoe and also seeing that she lived fairly close, I decided to reach out to her. She has been great. She asked great questions up front about Utah and what my needs were caring for him and what she may need to watch out for. Utah absolutely adores her. Zoe has been reliable and has communicated great with me. She lets me know when she arrives, she lets me know how Utah was during the walk and her visit time with him, she lets me know if he peered or pooped, and she sends me pictures of Utah while on their walk. She really likes Utah as well. I think both Utah and Zoe look forward to their daily walks. Zoe is trustworthy, mature, reliable, thoughtful, and caring. She is everything you could possibly want to care for your furry companion that you love so much. I 100% recommend Zoe without hesitation.”

I follow feeding and walking routines, supervise playtime, and make sure all safety measures are in place.

I love sending you pictures of your pets!!!
About: I have had dogs my whole life. My favorite thing to do with them is play and walk and let them enjoy nature!

I am a stay at home mom and both of my kids are in school during the day. I’m looking to find some furry friends to spend my day with. I treat my dogs like I treat my kids and make sure they’re cared for. We play, go outside, go on walks, get treats, and go to the dog park. I watch and listen to them to see how much energy they have that day.

About: Hi! I’m Lauren, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. I grew up with dogs and spent years helping take care of them—feeding, walking, playing, and, of course, giving lots of love. In high school and after, I worked as a dog sitter for families in my neighborhood, building experience with a variety of breeds and personalities. These days, I’m a proud cat mom to two sweet kitties, so I’m very familiar with both dog and cat care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or more shy and relaxed, I always adapt to their needs and treat them like my own. I know how important it is to feel confident in the person caring for your pets. You can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and gentle with your furry family members. I’m excited to meet your pets and give them the same love and attention they get from you! I have availability all throughout the week including weekends! I’m usually available from early in the morning starting around 6:30 AM to the evening as late as 8-9 PM. I can take on walks, feed, water, etc on whatever schedule is best for you and your fur baby. I always want to make sure the cat/ and or dog feels as comfortable as possible when you are away.
About: Experience & Philosophy With over a decade of hands-on experience caring for a diverse array of animals—from dogs and cats to reptiles and small exotics—I bring a deep, foundational understanding of animal behavior and needs to every walk. This extensive background, enriched by my work with animal foster groups, has honed my ability to read subtle cues and adapt to each pet's unique personality and comfort level. I don't just see a walk as a routine task; I view it as a vital opportunity for enrichment, exercise, and building a positive connection. My Approach: Patience & Partnership My core focus is on fostering trust—both with your pet and with you. I believe patience is the cornerstone of a great relationship, so I take the time to let shy or anxious dogs warm up at their own pace, using calm, positive reinforcement. For you, the owner, this means consistent, clear communication and detailed updates, so you always feel confident and connected while you're apart. Your peace of mind and your pet's genuine comfort are my top priorities, ensuring every outing is safe, enjoyable, and tailored to your specific expectations. I am self-employed and work from home. Because of this I maintain my own schedule, which means your pets can be my priority when I am with them. My home is an active and engaging space, perfectly suited for dogs who thrive with plenty of stimulation and exercise. As the proud owner of a high-energy herding dog, I have firsthand experience in meeting the needs of active breeds. Our daily life is built around structured enrichment and ample physical activity, from puzzle games and training sessions to long, adventurous walks and play. Your dog won't just be staying with me—they’ll be joining a fun, dynamic routine that keeps their body and mind happily engaged. Your pet’s safety and comfort are paramount. I maintain a clean, secure, and pet-proofed home to ensure a stress-free environment. With a resident expert in canine energy, I am exceptionally attentive to reading play styles and ensuring all interactions are positive and supervised. If your dog loves to play and learn, they will fit right into our active and loving household.

I work from home on Mondays and I am off Fridays and Saturdays. Meaning I have great availability for those who go on weekend getaways! I have a fenced yard where your dog and my dog can play as long as their lung capacity is capable of. I also have two dog crates in case your dog needs a place to decompress.
About: Hi, I’m Chloe! I’ve had dogs my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for them. I worked at our local dog shelter for over four years, where I cared for up to 52 dogs a day as part of a team, including administering medications. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or special care, I’ll treat your pup like my own! I do have two children who may occasionally accompany me when checking on dogs. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend! I’m a homeschool mom who runs her own photography business so I’m available most of the time to be able to check in and care for furry friends. My pets in my own home are very spoiled! We treat them like family. I would treat any pets I’m caring for the same. I love all pets!

“She took great care of our girl Sadie, she was great at sending updates and pictures, made our trip worry free. Sadie had a great time with Lauren and her dog Nala! Will definitely use Lauren again!”
“Exceptional sitter ! Elizabeth went above and beyond in her care for Tucker ! Very professional and did a great job communicating. Would definitely recommend !”
“Karen truly is the best. We have a very energetic pup and finding someone to watch him has not been the easiest. Karen is so kind and caring with our dog just loves her!”
“Madison and her sister were so great with our boys! Great back yard and we loved all the picture updates! No doubt in our minds that they were very loved and taken care of during our week vacation. So happy our boys now have a ‘home away from home’ :)”
“Kimberly and her family were so good to our little Molly that I was worried she wouldn’t want to come home. It was a true blessing finding Kimberly on Rover. I hope she has room for her the next time I need a dog border. Thank you so very much Kimberly.”
“I loved getting the picture updates and seeing Apollo playing with the kids and other dog while we were away. It really helped knowing he was being cared for by a loving family and not just held in a kennel. Thank you so much and I hope you will care for Apollo again.”
“Felt so comfortable with our puppy being with Justen. He communicated with us every day and made sure King felt at home. Justen is a very nice person I highly recommend him if you need someone to take care of your fur baby.”
“We felt very comfortable our pup was getting the best care while staying with Ellen. She had great communication throughout the process and we so appreciated the pic/video updates she shared with us!”
“Rose was AMAZING! This was the first time I’ve ever dropped my pup off at someone’s house and I was so emotional about it. But she sent so many pictures and videos and made Athena so comfortable and happy at her house. Communication was fantastic before boarding and during. I honestly can’t praise her enough for everything she did. 10/10 recommend for your dogs needs!!”
“We could not have asked for a better sitter! :) It was hard to leave our pup behind but Laura made us feel at ease with regular updates and sweet photos throughout his weekend stay! Our rambunctious golden clearly had a blast—especially playing with little Smitty, Laura’s adorable pup! Laura and her family genuinely seemed to enjoy having Bodhi in their home, and that meant a lot to us! Thank you, again! Highly recommend!!”
“Alex was the first host I used on Rover. I was a bit worried about using this app, but Alex made my first experience amazing! She is so friendly and truly has a heart for animals. I have already booked with her a few times since and my doggo loves to stay with her. She is very flexible and has even dropped my dog back off to me. I can’t recommend her enough! Thank you Alex for taking such good care of Amani!”
About: Hi I’m Zoë! I love all animals, big and small and have been around them my whole life. >I have owned many different types of animals: dogs, cats, fish, a ferret, guinea pigs, a hedgehog, ect... >I have experience with a spectrum of ages, sizes, and breeds of dogs. I am good with puppies in training, as well as senior dogs who need accommodations. >Right now I have a dog (Bailey, 3), a farm cat, a fish, and also a flock of ducks. >I also offer yard clean up services and homemade dogfood! >I have been working for Rover since 2023 after I graduated from OSU >I moved to Fairfield County in 2024 I currently work part time at a greenhouse and run my own business. Most of my days are very flexible and I am open to new short and long term clients! On Visits: I’m down stop in and visit your dog, or take them out on a walk in the yard or neighborhood. Feeding, playing, walking, trick training, giving medicine, and having hang time are all in my comfort zone. I can follow specific directions and trust my gut instincts. I love all dogs, big and small. They all have different personalities and I like to take my time to learn a dog and their preferences and tendencies. I always bring a treat with me on meet and greets if allowed, and I understand dog behavior enough to interpret their mood. For Dog Boarding: At my house, we have baby gates to separate the floors of the house, the cat stays upstairs most of the time. I like to have dogs meet on leashes or through a gate, I never leave unfamiliar dogs alone together, and my house is very dog friendly, with hardwood and linoleum and not much floor clutter. Outside, my dog is off leash trained (I know I am spoiled), but all other dogs I keep on a leash if we are outside or on an 100ft rope when we take walks through the field.
“Joy filled in when our regular sitter was on vacation and I can’t recommend her enough. We got daily updates (at minimum) and lots of pictures during our dogs’ week-long stay. Communication was great and the dogs were so loved on! She was very accommodating and has a perfect space for pup sitting. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again and hope we have another chance!”
“Best Dog Sitters ever!! I would highly recommend. Very Clean Home. Friendly and made Bronco feel comfortable. They sent pictures of my puppy reassuring he was safe and in good hands! I can truly say I’ll be booking with them all the time! They made my Vacation a Breeze.”
“Mary was an excellent host. Her two dogs Ellie and Fufu were so welcoming and Laika meshed in with ease. Cannot recommend more highly and I looked forward to booking again and again.”
“Emily and her family were amazing. She was very attentive to my older dog and was great with giving me updates and pictures. He even got to meet goats!!! Thank you so much Emily I will definitely use you again. I highly recommend”
“Maolin was the best and took such good care of Avery! She sent daily updates of their adventures on walks and to the dog park. With her we knew our pup was safe and happy over a long trip out of town!”
“Emily responded quickly, sent pics of my boys playing in the yard. She said they didn't eat much the first day but that's to be expected because they get anxious being left behind. But having boarded my dog tigger before he's usually anxious for days after being picked up and didn't have that this time, so that tells me a lot. ”
