“We’ve booked Merri Anne 3 times now and She is THE BEST!!! Our dog Pliny loves her and receives great care! Thank You so much for all of your love and attention for our fur baby!”
“Nathan was very responsive to our questions and sent us pics of our dog enjoying his stay and getting lots of exercise. We had some friends drop our dog off and we heard that he was greeted warmly and given lots of attention on arrival. Exactly the sort of welcome you hope for when you trust your pet to someone else's care.”
“We were very happy to have Renae watch our pup and love on him. We really relaxed on our vacation knowing that Buddy was in good hands. We will definitely have Renae watch our Buddy in the future.”
“We would definitely recommend Nicole, and use her services again. It looks that Rocket our 3 month old golden retriever had a good time. She would respond immediately to my messages and answer my questions plus her place looks adécuate for pets. Thank you Nicole.”
“So grateful for the care Adam took of my two very different dogs (Airedale & Pug). Having his own pack gave them great playtime and socialization. From the first meeting, my puppies connected with their vacation pack leader, Adam. They came home happy and exhausted from all the activity.”
“We were very happy with our pup’s stay here. He is a good sized dog with lots of energy and loved playing with Amanda’s dogs. Her home is very dog friendly and we got daily communication while away with picture and videos to document our pup’s adventures. We’ll be back!”
About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 12, it started with my sister's dog and I've slowly expanded to neighbors and friends loving pets! Im good with knowing their body language so I know how to react appropriately. Im used to long walks with dogs. I make sure the dog is happy. Im a part time photographer so I'm almost always home! I do school online so I won't be gone during the day. I have time for 2-3 walks a day, lots of play time. I have a fenced yard to let them out if it's an emergency or if they just want to run. I take dogs on 2-3 walks a day depending on what the dog wants. I let dogs sleep with me in my bed, I love cuddling on the couch as well. I love playing tug of war. If the dog gets messy while at my house I will give them a bath. If brushing is part of their routine I will gladly do that! I love playing with pets! They will have all my attention unless they want to be left alone.
About: I love my little doggie and I’ll love on yours like they’re mine! I can snuggle with your dog if that’s their thing, or take them on walks around my neighborhood! I have some experience with special needs as my first rescue doggie was one-eyed and then had to have his remaining eye removed due to glaucoma and cataracts. I have experience doing eye drops and pet meds, as well as accommodating dogs with limited vision. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos as I know I love those updates when I’m away. Dogs are family and I’ll take great care of yours! Don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions. I’m currently working part time, so I will have flexibility in caring for your dog and can talk with you to learn more about your dog’s typical schedule. I have a backyard that works well for small dogs and I am happy to do walks if that’s what your dog needs! I do have two kids who are great and very gentle with our special needs dog.
“I could not be more pleased with our experience! Carol took special care of our dogs' unique needs and personality despite having multiple types of dogs at her home. He was obviously so happy being there! Will book again!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I absolutely love animals especially dogs. I’ve trained all my personal dogs with basic commands. Let’s talk I’m currently retired and spend all day at home in the house and in my yard. My dogs go outside every hour for potty and play every hour unless I’m gone. I take my girls out first thing in the morning I walk out behind garage near orchard to let them go potty. They eat and then play and go back outside with me only as I don’t have fenced yard and want to be sure they go out back. They are placed in crate when I am not home for their safety and typically sleep there during the night or in bed with me. They go outside every hour to potty and run.
“David and his family are in the running for the most attentive and flexible sitters we've ever had. We were kept informed about a couple of issues we were concerned about, he required two daily medications, and David kept us informed of behavior changes. We received several reassuring photos that let us know how comfortable he was. They also seemed to genuinely enjoy Ziggy, even though he walked straight in their house the first day and peed on a chair. Will definitely call again with our setter sitting needs.”
“Unbelievably reliable and kind. Honestly we don’t want to share Tifany, which will happen when the community finds out how awesome she is, but she definitely deserves a fantastic review!”
“Shanna took great care of our Nellie while we were away! She sent multiple updates and went out of her way to make pick-up easier for us on our way home from the airport. We definitely recommend Shanna, thank you!”

“Andrew and Katie were AWESOME to work with! Very compassionate and dedicated to allowing Mabel the best stay ever. Mabel was so comfortable with both of them right at the beginning, which is unusual for our timid/anxious Newfy. Great communication, sent pictures often, asked appropriate questions. We HIGHLY recommend them and would not hesitate to have Mabel stay there again.”
“Terika did such a great job with Bandido, who was understandably confused as it was the first time ever we left him with a sitter. She sent a lot of reassuring photos he was having a good time. Will use her again if available the next time we need a cat sitter. Definitely 5 stars.”

“Our dog, Theo, had a great time with Nicole and her family! They have a great, big property with tons of room to run. She was very accommodating to our fluctuating schedule. Most of all, Theo was a tired, happy dog when we picked him up from daycare which is all we ask for.”

“Adam really came through for me when I was in a pinch and I'm so very grateful. He was accommodating for a last minute daycare situation and super compassionate for what I was going through. My pup obviously had a great time playing with his dogs and gave Adam kisses when they said goodbye. Highly recommend!”
“Carol & Brian took great care of my lab for the day. She had a lot of fun with their dog. I would definitely bring her back, as well as book her for overnight stays. Thanks again!”
“I HIGHLY recommend using Amanda to care for your pup! She’s treats your pup like her own. Mine came home happy n completely exhausted every time he visited her home. Her back yard is safe and secure as well.”
About: I have been pet sitting, and dog walking for many years. I use to house sit as well, but with two little ones I decided to stay to my home and go for quick visits to peoples homes. I take pride in caring for each animal I have in my home, and other people homes. They get spoiled rotten just like my own animals. I myself have three dogs of all different sizes, and a few rabbits as well for showing and my daughter for 4H. I have experience with all sorts of animals, Dogs, cats, poultry, rabbits, goats, pigs, and other smaller farm animals. I currently do not have a job so I am open to love on and care for your animals needs.

About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, hamsters, and even fish! I send regular photo updates, can bathe your pets, walk them, clean your yard, and provide reliable overnight care. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether you need short term or long term help, I’m here to make things easier for you and your furry friends! I am currently working full-time from 3–11 PM at Providence and in the Air Force National Guard,but I can still easily accommodate morning and evening drop in visits, walks, or house sitting checks. My schedule actually aligns perfectly with typical pet routines: I handle early AM visits before my shift starts and late PM/evening ones right after I get off work. I’m very flexible on weekends and off days, and I always prioritize reliable, on time care for your pets! I care for pets in their own home where they feel most safe and comfortable. I follow all instructions carefully, keep their environment clean, and make sure they get love, play, and attention. I always respect your space and treat it like my own, ensuring your pet feels secure while you’re away.
About: Greetings! My name is Tifany, and I’ve taken care of pets my whole life. I’m an experienced sitter, and somehow find myself often accepting interesting duties for unique pets. I’ve given injections, medicines, and even haircuts to animals. I do my very best to love on your fur-babies the way that you want them to be loved, even the hard-to-love ones. I am reliable, trustworthy (because I fear God), and accommodating. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your little ones, and you, as happy as can be! If boarding your pet is your preference, you should know that I do have a smaller apartment; two bedrooms, a kitchen, a living room and bathroom, but small. I’ve found that some people want a little more space for their really big, multiple dogs. That’s okay, you should just be aware. But I’m also near a large college campus and it works well for walking your dogs with a lot of open space and plenty of plush, green grass. I also prefer to meet at a public space before meeting at my home — I’ve found that accepting a job must go both ways for your safety and for mine. If we decide that I should stay at your house while looking after your pets, you should know that I live as if you have cameras in every room, (except the bathroom, of course), because to me, God is with me and sees all anyway. It’s important to me that you know that this is my point of view in caring for your pets and home when you are away — with the most respect possible. There’s enough evil in the world, we don’t need any more, and I refuse to contribute to it. You should also be aware that I have a resident cat. Depending on whether or not your pet is amenable to this or not, I have the luxury of taking my resident cat to my adult daughter’s house for her to care for if your pup would prefer. So, I’m pretty flexible in this regard. In any case, I am a big fan of the Rover app and have had many wonderful experiences through this platform, boarding and housesitting pets, and I advocate for several other pet sitters on the app whom I personally know. I haven’t heard of any bad experiences from these friends yet. I hope you find the right fit for yours and your pets needs, and I’ll hope to make your acquaintance soon. Blessings to you and yours! 🙌🏼🐶🥰 I have one part-time job — I work in ministry 28 hours a week giving Bible studies to clients, mostly in-home, but the hours are flexible and able to be moved around if needed. This means that pet care is an easy integration in my schedule because I’m able to come home often to let pets out throughout the day. I want to be clear, however, as I’ve had this issue in the past, if you expect me to be home 24/7 with your pet, I cannot accommodate that request. I’m home more often then most, yes, but not continuously all day, every day. I have a decent backyard to walk pups in, and love to take dogs on walks in the evening, even in the cold, which I actually prefer over hot. I will say that I cannot handle overnight stays in a client’s home without A/C in warm weather.
About: I’m very familiar with different dogs, good with sensitive tummies and higher-energy leveled dogs, learned from a German shepherd. Good at giving meds and watching food portions and keeping a crazy puppy focused on the task at hand. I know how to be attentive, adaptable and firm, depending on your fur baby’s needs. I am currently a college student, so I can put time for your fur babies between classes, whether it be feeding or walks, and I am super flexible depending on your needs. I can be where you need me to be and give your animal its deserved time. While I do not do pet boarding, as I stay in dorms, I like to communicate with the owner beforehand to know what’s to expect and I also keep the house clean, so you don’t come back to hair or anything all over the carpet. I give walks all in neighborhoods and love to go to parks for dogs and let them run in fenced areas.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals all my life. Soon enough I started getting pet sitting gigs from friends and family. From elderly dogs to 5 week old kittens I love and cherish every moment with them making sure they get all my love and attention. I’m currently waiting to hear back from jobs so I have all the time in the world currently. So if you need a pet sitter I’m available! I have two skittish cats in my home so I sadly cannot take care of pets in my home. When it comes to clients animals I make sure they are comfortable with me and give them the attention they want. I available for long walks and lot of play time outside.
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life taking care of yours would be a blessing! I love any and all animals and will put in the work I currently work part time as a ranch hand with my horse and dogs I go home to my cat and I am free to take care of yours animals my schedule is flexible I care with lots of walk ands love and play making sure they have a full belly and lots of quality time to be loved
About: I have always had a passion for animals. Family and friends depend on me to take care of their animals when they go out of town on vacation or business. I able to adjust my schedule accordingly to your animals needs and care due to my work schedule being flexibility during the weekdays and weekends. I provide all animals their needs and care including providing food, fresh water, and taking dogs for walk. Most important giving animals love and care.
About: Since I was in elementary school I’ve taken care of my neighbors and family pets! I have been known to be loved by every animal I’ve had or been around! From all ages of pets I’ve given exceptional care to all! I am able to help wherever I am needed! I help as a part time job when I am not taking care of patients in our Urgent care clinic! I’m usually always in mom mode with any pet as I’m watching them, keeping them entertained, feeding them yummy healthy snacks and lots of attention!
