“Christina is communicative, flexible, and caring. Our dog was feeling a bit nervous in a new environment and Christina did her best to support our dog while we were away. When we picked up our dog she was happy and healthy! Thank you, Christina!”

“Lyssette kept me updated with pictures and video my whole trip. We used her our first time using rover and she did a wonderful job and my dog was very happy when she got home. We used to take my dog to boarding places but after it made her super sick last time we decided to try out rover and I’m glad we did because it was a very good experience.”

“Kevin, Atalaya and the kids were an absolute blessing. I was so lucky to have them take Bella in at the last minute. They accommodated Bella, as if she was another family member. The pictures they sent showed how much fun she had. I really appreciate all the updates they gave me. This is going to be really hard to choose from Bella's regular babysitter and Kevin and Atalaya sitting for her. I can't say enough good things about them. Wonderful experience can't wait to have them sit foe Bella again.”

“Super awesome nice family took excellent care of my German Shepherd for six days! Excellent communications and pictures during his stay. I will definitely use their services again.”
“I am so grateful for the love and care that is given to my fur baby during his stay! They go above and beyond and send me the most wonderful updates! I give them 10 stars!!! ✨✨😁💃🏻”


“It was great for Lola to have other dogs to be and play with! I so appreciate being able to have someone board her in their home while I'm in the area staying with friends.”

“Excellent, excellent care for my two small dogs. The owners are dog lovers and it shows. They're super conscientious, considerate and caring with dogs AND people. I've used their service twice and will never go anywhere else.”

“Hannah was Amazing with our boy kitty Finnegan. He was happy and healthy and excited to be home after 8 days. She continued to give us updates almost daily, she was very good with communication, and seemed to Really love animals. I would recommend Hannah to watch anyone's pets and if I ever need a sitter I would not trust Anyone else. Thank you Hannah!”

“Suzanne took great care of our little dog, Charlie, while we were on vacation recently. I was so pleased with the care he received and the daily updates from Suzanne that always included lots of photos of Charlie! Suzanne is very knowledgeable and gave us some great tips about canine nutrition, too. We will definitely book when Suzanne again!”

“Alex was great with our poodle puppy. He was very responsive, and I felt like if we had any concerns, we could easily reach out to Alex and receive a very timely response. We ran into some delays on our pick up evening and we were thankful that Alex was able to modify the booking for the following morning.”

“Paula is a dog person thru and thru and I loved knowing my Lily pug was safe in her care. Will use Paula again :) Thank you again for taking such good care of our lily pug!”

“Barbara is a really warm person who my dog took a shine to right away. I was very comfortable leaving my little buddy with her and it sounds like they had a great time 🙂”

“So happy to have come across Jennifer and Eric before boarding our pup. Seeing photos of him snuggling their kids and knowing he was being loved on all week gave us so much peace of mind while we were on vacation. Thank you guys so much!”

“Angelique did a great job w Sammy. He got lots of walks, photos of both inside hang time and outdoor adventures. He was always with a human to oversee activities. Photos were keepers! Really well done. Thanks Angelique. We'll visit again in the future.”

“Kim did a great job and has a great house for all types of dogs. She kept us up to date on how our dog was doing and made sure she had all the info she needed to properly care for our dog. Will definitely return to her for dog sitting!”

“Brittany and Blase are both completely fantastic! They are very knowledgeable and friendly and did an excellent job with my dog Taylor. It was my first time using Rover and Taylor’s first time staying with new people and everything was fantastic! They communicated frequently and I could see in all of the photos and videos they sent how happy and comfortable Taylor was. They took great care of her and she got all of the play time, attention, and snuggles she could ever want. I highly recommend them and will absolutely be rebooking in the future!”


“Lily was in for a long stay while we were traveling in the UK. I could tell from the photos and interaction with Ron that she was happy and comfortable with her environment and I was never anxious about her care or well being. She probably got a lot more exercise than she does when she is at home and that's not a bad thing. I am very happy that I have found a great resource in Ron to help us take care of Lily when we cannot.”

“My eighth month old pup, Laezel, recently had a great two week stay with Kris. I had anxiety at finding Laezel the right sitter because she can be very high energy, but Kris handled her expertly and she came back to us healthy and happy. Kris was also very communicative and gave us numerous photo updates.”

“Allison was very accommodating with our dog Yoshi who still has a lot of puppy energy. I could tell that Yoshi had a great stay, he came back home calm and very affectionate. I'll definitely reach out to Allison for dog sitting in the future.”

“Kristina took excellent care of our Miss Elsa kitty. Elsa was calm and relaxed when we returned home. Kristina left the house as she found it. We highly recommend Kristina!”


“Jessica is amazing! This is the second time she’s watched our cat. Our cat warmed up to her quickly. I felt more secure knowing our cat was in good hands. Jessica is easy to communicate with and is on top of sharing any updates or needs along the way!”


“Michelle is absolutely AMAZING! I don't even know where to start with this review to express how thankful I am to have found her! We have two cats, one of whom can be a bit of a handful. My husband and I had never hired anyone outside of friends or family, but that wasn't an option for us this time, and we feel so lucky to have found Michelle. Upon meeting the cats, we knew she would be a great fit. She was calm and respectful, and continued to be absolutely amazing with them and with our house while we were gone. We were gone for two weeks and then hired her again for a shorter vacation -- and both times, she was just fabulous. She was always on time, left detailed updates, and fun and sweet photos of the cats. She is extremely reliable and did everything we asked for perfectly for the cats. Plus my extremely shy and neurotic cat was able to trust her, which is a huge deal, and a testimony to how great she is with animals! I have a hard time trusting people with my cats, and I didn't worry even a little about leaving them in Michelle's care. I can't imagine ever hiring anyone else after having worked with her, and I absolutely would recommend her to everyone out there!”


About: I have been around cats for my entire life, ranging from owning/growing up with them to helping watch other people’s cats when they were away! I’ve also worked with animals, including cats!
“Emma is just who Purru needed while we were on a weekend getaway, just two weeks after a move. We came home to a happy, content cat, which is a wonderful thing! Emma , thanks for spending your weekend with our sleepy senior kitty girl, and for your patience while waiting for the key.”


“Maleny was a champ! One of our kitties didn’t do so well with us being gone so long and Maleny went above and beyond for us to make sure things were taken care of—even coming an extra day just to help more. I would hire her again if I needed her.”

“Alisha took care of my golden retriever while I was away for a long weekend. She was extremely communicative throughout the whole process and gave me so much ease leaving my baby!! Very responsible and great with my dog! Highly recommend”


About: I’m experienced in caring for cats with a wide range of personalities—from shy and independent to playful and affectionate. I understand the importance of clean litter boxes, consistent feeding schedules, gentle interaction, and respecting boundaries. I make sure cats feel safe, calm, and comfortable in their own space while their owners are away.
About: If you’re looking for a safe, loving place for your dog while you’re away, I’d love to help! I grew up surrounded by animals on a Japanese maple farm with over 20 horses and lots of dogs, both indoor and working dogs, caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and training backgrounds. I am a student and only have one in-person class this term, giving me lots of availability for quality time with your pup! I live in a cute, quiet neighborhood near a park and walking trail, and I usually go for walks in the mornings and a couple miles before dinner when my partner comes home from work (weather permitting). I’d happily bring your dog along for those little adventures so they get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and stimulation. I believe mental and physical exercise is very important for all breeds! After walks and a lot of playing, I make sure to keep track of any supplements and food schedules needed (usually by setting reminders and alarms on my phone) I also know how important peace of mind is while you’re away, so I like to send regular updates and photos so you can see how your pup is doing. If you have any questions or want to chat about your dog’s specific needs, feel free to reach out. I’d love to meet you both!
About: Cats and Dogs have filled my house ever since I could remember. I have helped care for neighbors and family members animals over the years and helped maintained their safety and health. Taking them for walks, giving them snuggles and a bath when needed. I have been around dogs of all breeds and am very comfortable with them all. Needless to say, almost every animal I’ve been around has adored me just as much as I adore them. Your pets are promised safe hands when cared by me. I just graduated college and am working to start a business so am looking for side gigs to do that will allow me to continue to work simultaneously. I love pets and will be home for the next year so have an open book for watching pets. In my clients home I would be very mindful of the pets environment and take them for walks along with feeding and snuggling afterwards or beforehand. Respecting my clients property and accomplishing my job safely and responsibly.

“Our dog had a great time at Matt's. We were in town just for half of the day and happy to find a place for our dog to enjoy herself with other dogs. We received pictures and a video while she was there. She was tired and slept really well that night. Matt was friendly, easy to talk and communicate with. We would definitely book again with Matt if we are ever in his area again.”

“He helped get my sweet pups confidence up and playing with bigger dogs without being so submissive! My 6 months pup has gone less than 10 times and it’s already made such a positive difference in our Obi. Thank you for helping our pup grow in great ways!!”

“Penny had a great day with Christina! During the day, Christina sent me photos of Penny and updates on how she was settling in and getting on with her family furry friends. Christina is super friendly and a great communicator. I felt totally at ease leaving Penny with her.”

“Lauren was great! She was flexible & accommodating, loved on our Tucker dog, who can have high separation anxiety, and communicated with us through the day to let us know how he was doing and to verify any concerns. It was a blessing to have her watch him for the day, allowing him to join us on this trip but to know he was in good hands while we completed activities he could not join us for. We would definitely use Lauren again!”
“This was my first time using Tawyna & John P "Clay" for doggy day care, and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the experience. Clay was professional from the start and always prompt in responding to my questions, which I really appreciated. When we arrived, he took the time to give me a tour and patiently answered all of my questions. The multiple levels of fenced kennel runs with bark chips were very well done, and it gave me such peace of mind knowing that both of my Weimaraners were safe and secure. Most importantly, my dogs had a great time! They came home happy and happily worn out at the end of the day, which says everything. I’m so thankful for the care Clay provided and would absolutely recommend him to others looking for a safe, well-run place for their dogs.”

“Chloe and her family took great care of our pup when we were in town for a softball tournament. She was really flexible in accommodating our last minute game schedules for drop off and pick up. ?”
About: If your dog loves walks, attention, and being treated like absolute royalty… we’re going to get along great 🐾 I’ve been dog sitting for over a decade, and at this point it’s less of a job and more of a personality trait. I walk my own dog three times a day (yes, we’re that kind of household), and I genuinely can’t wait to add your pup to the routine! I’m fully that girl who has to stop and say hi to every cute dog I pass—and by the end of it, we’re best friends. So just know: your dog is not getting casual care… they’re getting full-on obsession. Your doggo will get plenty of walks, love, cuddles, attention, and playtime from me and my sweet girl Sparrow. Think of it as a little vacation where they’re the main character 💁♀️ Can’t wait to meet your pup and become their new favorite human (besides you of course!) I work 8-5p M-F but work from home 3 days a week and have availability to walk early mornings, evenings, and during my lunch breaks! My weekends are typically very free and are usually filled with park visits and walks! I treat other dogs just like they are my own, and my girl is treated like an absolute queen! I make sure doors are securely closed, that anything potentially harmful is stored away, and always take weather into consideration when walking (if it’s over 80 degrees out, I will provide boots to ensure that pups don’t get their paws burned!) I make sure to bring water and poop bags and will always communicate if something seems off.
“Hannah was great. She was very flexible and punctual and cared for our pup well. It was nice knowing our dog got to enjoy farm life. She even washed him when he got muddy. Very kind.”

“Brianna was awesome! She is very professional about everything, clearly answered any questions I had, provided updates about my day throughout the day, and provided a fun and safe environment with lots of TLC for my fur baby. It was a wonderful experience for my dog and me.”

“Megan did a great job sitting with Duke in our house and kept in touch during her stay with texts and photos. We are planning a trip later and will use Megan again for house sitting.”

“Alexis and Jacob watched Baja for the first time and it was a total success! Baja is very sweet but can be a handful and so we were pretty picky about who could take the reins after her last sitter moved. Based on the friendliness, competence, reliability, and great communication we experienced with Alexis and Jacob, we’re thrilled to have a new loving and safe place for Baja to stay when we’re gone.”

“Thanks Roxanne you were always calm, flexible and easy to work with. I would not recommend for smaller dogs. Our pup went 2 days and came back both days a bit overwhelmed, exhausted and especially on day 2 he was stinky and scratched up. As a one year old he may not have been able to hold his own with the larger older dogs. It seems to be a great place for larger dogs, but even my 80lb Ridgeback was overwhelmed and may have been out muscled. He tends to play hard and get clumsy. Will certainly consider in the future for booking.”


“Vanessa did a great job with our dog. This was our very first day care experiene. I was as nervous as my children going to preschool! But, Vanessa put my mind at ease with her competence and major care with our fur child. We will go again.”

About: I have 10 years of specific dog care experience—from the puppy stage through the senior years. I understand that different ages and breeds need differing levels of energy and respond in kind. I know how important it is for your pup to feel safe and calm but also know how to let them let loose and have fun/playtime! I adore dogs and can’t wait to help care for your fur baby for you. I’m a stay at home mom, so my schedule is fairly open. I can work in walks, visits, and feedings for your pup(s) as it works for you. I also have a fenced in back yard, and can offer day boarding as needed, so your fur baby will have access to space to run and play while staying safe. Happy to also offer short term boarding or in (your) home care for times when you are out of town. Based on your needs, I can keep your pet here at my home where I have a fenced in yard, and can also crate your pet, if that is something they are used to. On walks, I will always keep your pet leashed and will offer a calm and gentle environment at all times while they are in my home. If your needs require me to be in your home, I will follow any and all guidelines pertaining to your space.

“Alex seems very experienced with dogs. My dog can be intimidating at first and tends to play hard to get. Rizzo is often hesitant when meeting new people, but Alex has been patient and has taken the time to build trust with her. She continues to work on strengthening that bond, and I think Rizzo will really grow to love her. It’s been great to see how understanding and dedicated Alex has been throughout the process”

About: I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust. I know every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know what makes each one unique. I treat every dog with the same patience, care, and attention I would want for my own. I have experience caring for dogs of various ages and breeds, as well as multi-dog households in a variety of settings. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while keeping owners updated and at ease. Pet care is my full-time focus, and my schedule is built around providing dependable, attentive care for the pets and families I work with. I prioritize consistency, communication, and making sure each pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. I provide care exclusively within my clients’ homes, as I believe pets feel safest and most comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. Throughout all services, I prioritize maintaining your pet’s normal schedule while providing companionship, exercise, structure, and attentive care. I respect each client’s home as if it were my own and value cleanliness, security, and clear communication. I also provide regular updates and photos for added peace of mind and carefully follow all care requests.
“My husband and I met Alisha in October for a meet and greet with Milo, our mixed yellow lab and golden retriever. The meeting was for an upcoming trip during the Christmas holidays. We instantly liked her, she was on time when she came, she was professional, she bonded right away with Milo. Soon after I booked a three day walk in November just to reconnect again with her. It was for a 30 minute walk and again she was on time and I love the fact that I get a text and a pic of the walk. Tomorrow will be the start of a 13 day house sitting and we feel confident about the whole thing knowing that Milo will not be neglected. We’re glad we came across her at Rover. I highly recommend her.”

About: I've been taking care of dogs for the past 9 years. From owning dogs to dog sitting. I am comfortable walking, feeding, grooming, training, playing, and staying overnight with any age of dog. I really enjoy being around puppies and have a good understanding of what senior dogs need. I am comfortable with both high and low energy dogs. Have a skidish or shy dog? I have experience with them too. I am home from college for the summer and have plenty of time on my hands! I'm very flexable with times and am more than happy to wake up early or stay late! I will communicate with the pet parent to understand the pets needs and figure out plans to prevent or deal with various potential shenanigans the furry friend may come up with.
About: I’m Christina — a lifelong animal lover based in beautiful McMinnville wine country! Find me on insta @ GomezGetaway Myhome is full of love, fun, structure, and lots of tail wags thanks to our own pups, Mazie & Louie! I know leaving your dog with someone else can feel stressful, so my goal is simple: I want your pup to feel safe, loved, comfortable, and part of the family while you’re away. Whether your dog loves playtime, couch cuddles, sunbathing, or just a calm environment to relax in, I work hard to make their stay feel like a little getaway of their own. I provide personalized attention, frequent updates/photos, and a warm home environment with lots of supervision and care. I currently keep my bookings intentionally small so each dog gets plenty of attention and a low-stress experience. This also allows me to learn your dog’s routines, personality, and needs so they feel right at home. What you can expect: 🐾 Frequent photo updates 🐾 Safe, loving home environment 🐾 Flexible communication 🐾 Personalized care & attention 🐾 A fun but calm atmosphere Bonus: your pup may even go home with a cute photo, treat, or little surprise from their stay 😊 I’d love to meet you and your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy it—it’s something I prioritize, not squeeze in. I build my schedule around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they get consistent attention, walks, and companionship throughout the day. Whether it’s morning check-ins, midday activity, or evening wind-down time, I make sure each dog’s needs and routine are followed closely so they feel comfortable and cared for. I work full time at home! My job is flexible and allows for play time, potty breaks and lunch time walks! I have a large fenced backyard where your pup is free to play, explore and potty! I have two additional fur babies who will keep your pup company! Your pup will likely spend most of the day with me inside, in my office. I give my pups space to roam the house if they want, but they generally sleep on the couch behind me. I am also able to crate your pup if that's what they're used to or comfortable with. I am flexible to your needs!
“I recently got a puppy and booked an hour with Erica as part of his socialization process, to get him used to spending time with strangers. Erica and her daughter did an amazing job and I could tell Raider warmed up to both of them right away and felt very comfortable. It’s SO important for young puppies (especially giant breeds) to have positive experiences with new people. Thanks for helping to make sure I don’t wind up with a 120lb dog that’s afraid of people 🤣🖤Very much appreciated! 100% recommend”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, with over 10 years of personal ownership and experience in dog sitting, walking, and training. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments, from laid-back seniors to high-energy puppies. I’m especially experienced with young or active dogs and love providing high-energy play, consistent routines, and plenty of cuddles. I’ve also trained dogs in basic obedience, hunting, and even service dog skills, so I’m comfortable reinforcing training while you’re away. I offer walking, feeding, crate training, medication administration, and overnight care; and I always tailor my approach to your dog’s unique needs and personality. Whether your pup needs a calm, consistent presence or someone to match their zoomies, I’ve got you covered! I’m I’m a student at Linfield University and I am currently on summer break. I have flexible availability for house sitting (overnight or daytime care), dog walking, drop-in visits, and more! Please see below for House Sitting! House Sitting Policy: Please note that my standard house sitting rate does not include constant care. During a house sitting booking, I may leave for 4–8 hours at a time to care for my own dog or complete scheduled walks and drop-in visits for other clients. Every pet has different needs, and I’m happy to discuss their routine before booking to make sure my schedule is a good fit. Puppies and pets with medical needs are evaluated on a case-by-case basis. I do not charge my constant care rate solely because a pet is a puppy or has medical needs, as puppies already have a higher rate and medical needs are often outside of an owner’s control. If your pet’s care requirements significantly limit my ability to accept other bookings or require me to remain with them for the majority of the day, we can discuss whether a constant care rate is appropriate. I also live with another experienced Rover sitter. If an unexpected scheduling conflict ever arises, they are available to let pets outside for a potty break or provide a quick check-in when appropriate. This helps ensure your pet’s routine is maintained even if I’m briefly unavailable. Any assistance would be communicated with you in advance whenever possible. If your pet requires constant or near-constant supervision, I do offer constant care at an adjusted rate. The requested dates are reserved exclusively for your pet(s), allowing me to remain with them throughout the duration of the stay. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space and routine with the same respect I’d want for my own. I follow all instructions carefully; whether that’s feeding schedules, walking routines, crate time, or medication needs, so your pet stays comfortable and consistent in their environment. I’m also happy to continue any training or reinforcement you’ve already been working on, whether it’s basic commands, crate manners, or specific behavior routines. Consistency is key, and I always strive to keep your pet’s progress moving forward while you’re away. I aim to keep your pet’s day as normal and stress-free as possible, offering them love, play, and structure. I also provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and in good hands. I’m tidy, responsible, and always make sure your home is just as you left it, or better. Your pet’s well-being, safety, and happiness are my top priorities.

About: Having grown up with both a Chihuahua and Australian Cattle Dogs, I am well-versed in dogs that need high-energy play time versus those that just need to get their zoomies out! Currently, I am pet & house sitting full-time as I study for taking the LSAT this winter, so as long as you have wifi, I am able to work on my laptop and take care of any animals. In short, I am an animal lover through and through, who has to pet any dog or cat I see and have a genuine interest in caring for and loving your special furry friend 🐾 I am currently in-between jobs as I am studying for my LSAT for law school so my schedule is very flexible right now! I have a car and am able to drive so that is not a problem. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I am very aware that I am a guest in the home and act accordingly. These days, privacy is important and I pride myself on protecting that for the client in addition to caring for the pet(s). When interacting with pet(s), I like to go at their pace in their home, respecting their boundaries, and gaining their trust. I am able to handle shy pets and wait for them to warm up as well as handle the rambunctious love bugs that want to snuggle!
About: I've been a lifelong animal lover and have hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets. I've been the primary caregiver for my dog for 8 years and my cat for 3 years, and I've also cared for birds, hamsters, and fish. As a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of reliable, attentive care and will treat your pets like my own. I work full time M-T and would be willing to do a later evening drop in, but have my Friday afternoons and weekends available any time! Your pet's safety is my top priority. As a pet owner, I understand that every animal has unique behaviors and needs. Having cared for dogs with a tendency to bolt, I am especially mindful around doors, gates, and leashes and always take extra precautions to prevent escapes. I will carefully follow your pet's routine, respect your home's rules, and provide a calm, secure environment while you're away. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and cared for while giving you peace of mind.
About: There’s nothing I love more than animals! I have personally taken care of and owned a wide variety of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, rats, parakeets and poultry. I have lots of experience handling and administering medication to dogs, cats and rabbits. I am a college student home for the summer so my schedule is quite flexible. Send me a message and we can work something out! I live on an acre lot where my two large dogs and cat roam freely both inside and outside. They share the yard with 5 chickens, a goose, and a duck who live comfortably in a large coop. Dogs are taken on walks regularly, fed twice a day and loved on always! Pets of all shapes and sizes are well loved, socialized and kept safe.

About: I have had animals much of my life and have always been a responsible caretaker. I enjoy the company, love and unwavering affection of animals and strive to provide that in return. I'm currently working part-time allowing me the flexibility to walk, play and hang out with your pet(s). My availability is daily for walks and some drop in visits. Let's work together to find a plan that fits everyone's needs! I treat all animals and humans with dignity and respect. I honor the clients feelings and will do my very best to show the client their pet is in good hands. All animals will be cared for as if they are my own.
About: I was raised in a multi-animal house with multiple dogs and cats. Both of the dogs me and my family have taken care of are extremely high energy breeds with both a cattle dog and cattle dog / husky mix. I have house sat for multiple friends and family members and have had extended stays on my Grandfathers farm taking care of chickens, alpacas, and horses. I will be prepared for anything your cat or dog may throw my way! I am currently home from college for the summer. I have almost complete open availability and am willing to work some overnight hours (minus a few weekend nights here and there). I understand that taking care of dogs is a full time job that requires a lot of structure and timing. I have a firm knowledge on feeding schedules and the needs of animals as well as a desire to keep them both physically and mentally happy. I am physically fit myself and am willing to exercise dogs that may need the additional physical activity.
About: If you’re looking for a safe, loving place for your dog while you’re away, I’d love to help! I grew up surrounded by animals on a Japanese maple farm with over 20 horses and lots of dogs, both indoor and working dogs, caring for animals has always been second nature to me.

About: Lifelong dog and cat mom! I give your fur babies the same love and care i give my own pets. I have a fenced backyard where eyes will always be on your pets. A small pool for the hot days. My dog Opal is everyone’s friend! But, if he is too active for your pet they can easily be separated. I’m completely flexible and available 7 days a week—morning, afternoon, and evening! Whether it’s walks, feedings, playtime, or overnight stays, I’m here when you need me. Your pets’ routines are my top priority, and I’ll gladly adjust to their needs and your schedule. Just let me know what works best for you! Your pet’s safety and comfort come first! I provide a calm, loving environment where your fur baby will feel secure and cared for. I always follow your instructions closely, and I’m happy to send updates for peace of mind. With years of hands-on experience and a genuine love for animals, you can trust that your pet is in kind, capable hands.
About: Cats and Dogs have filled my house ever since I could remember. I have helped care for neighbors and family members animals over the years and helped maintained their safety and health. Taking them for walks, giving them snuggles and a bath when needed. I have been around dogs of all breeds and am very comfortable with them all. Needless to say, almost every animal I’ve been around has adored me just as much as I adore them. Your pets are promised safe hands when cared by me. I just graduated college and am working to start a business so am looking for side gigs to do that will allow me to continue to work simultaneously. I love pets and will be home for the next year so have an open book for watching pets. In my clients home I would be very mindful of the pets environment and take them for walks along with feeding and snuggling afterwards or beforehand. Respecting my clients property and accomplishing my job safely and responsibly.
About: I’ve taken care of neighbors pets throughout my life. This has included cats and dogs mostly! I have preformed walks, feeding and making sure the pet has water and giving out plenty of love and pets! I have dog walked, and done drop in visits for one family in the last year which included 2 cats and one hedgehog! I would love to have a dog of my own but don’t have the time due to my job. I can help walk on weekends and week nights after 5pm! I make sure to spend time with and take great care with the animals. I love dogs and all other animals so much and know how important they are to people, so I extend that same love.
About: I’ve been around dogs all the time growing up, I know how to care for them and act around them. Many times I’ve been called on to dog sit for friends and family going on trips and loved getting to care for them! I’m a stay-at-home wife and am home most of the time, dog walking is the perfect way to get out of the house in the fresh air and care for some lovely pets! When I walk your dog I will be very careful to keep him leashed at all times when he is not in your backyard or house, so as to keep him from getting lost.
About: I’ve been an animal person since I can remember! From dreaming of being a vet to owning dogs, cats, horses! I have 2 dogs of my own and they get along great with other dogs! I have a pretty flexible schedule! I work from home and do school online so I am always available to let the dogs out or go for a walk! I have a huge fenced backyard and access to large fields! I also have a air conditioned home and lots of toys to play with!
About: All my life I’ve been surrounded by dogs, and their company has always brought me so much joy. I truly believe everyone deserves the happiness a dog brings. I currently live with four cats, one of which is named Ricki — who honestly acts like a dog himself and loves going on walks and car rides. I have hands-on experience with senior dogs, dogs with disabilities, and dogs who experience seizures. I love taking pups on walks (weather permitting), going to dog parks so they can socialize, and giving them plenty of love and mental stimulation. I’m a strong believer in animal rights and I never take their trust for granted. Their safety, comfort, and happiness always come first with me. Rover is an amazing way to find someone you trust with your best friend, and I would love the chance to care for and look after your pet like they’re part of my family. I live right in town with a reliable car, which makes traveling to and from jobs easy. I currently work a couple of part-time jobs, but I’m able to schedule pet care around them with plenty of availability. I’m flexible, responsive, and able to make mid-day visits, morning/evening drop-ins, or full days depending on what your pet needs. When caring for pets in my home, I always keep the space clean, safe, and comfortable. I make sure animals have fresh water, the right amount of food, and a calm environment. Cats always have clean litter, and dogs get supervised outdoor time and structured care. In a client’s home, I follow all routines exactly as instructed and treat your space with respect. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first.

“Lyssette kept me updated with pictures and video my whole trip. We used her our first time using rover and she did a wonderful job and my dog was very happy when she got home. We used to take my dog to boarding places but after it made her super sick last time we decided to try out rover and I’m glad we did because it was a very good experience.”

“Hannah was Amazing with our boy kitty Finnegan. He was happy and healthy and excited to be home after 8 days. She continued to give us updates almost daily, she was very good with communication, and seemed to Really love animals. I would recommend Hannah to watch anyone's pets and if I ever need a sitter I would not trust Anyone else. Thank you Hannah!”

We ran into some delays on our pick up evening and we were thankful that Alex was able to modify the booking for the following morning.”

“Brittany and Blase are both completely fantastic! They are very knowledgeable and friendly and did an excellent job with my dog Taylor. It was my first time using Rover and Taylor’s first time staying with new people and everything was fantastic! They communicated frequently and I could see in all of the photos and videos they sent how happy and comfortable Taylor was. They took great care of her and she got all of the play time, attention, and snuggles she could ever want. I highly recommend them and will absolutely be rebooking in the future!”


“Lily was in for a long stay while we were traveling in the UK. I could tell from the photos and interaction with Ron that she was happy and comfortable with her environment and I was never anxious about her care or well being. She probably got a lot more exercise than she does when she is at home and that's not a bad thing. I am very happy that I have found a great resource in Ron to help us take care of Lily when we cannot.”

“My eighth month old pup, Laezel, recently had a great two week stay with Kris. I had anxiety at finding Laezel the right sitter because she can be very high energy, but Kris handled her expertly and she came back to us healthy and happy. Kris was also very communicative and gave us numerous photo updates.”

“Allison was very accommodating with our dog Yoshi who still has a lot of puppy energy. I could tell that Yoshi had a great stay, he came back home calm and very affectionate. I'll definitely reach out to Allison for dog sitting in the future.”

“Matt was great with my pups (and the others) from what I can tell. It was nice for them to have some space to run and play and relax for the evening while I was away. I appreciated the update on how they were doing.”

“Katie is a great sitter. She provided updates and pictures of Beaus stay. I'm very picky when it come to the care of my dog but Katie was confident in her skills and made me feel comfortable leaving Beau while we were on vacation. It was also a plus that she had experience with cattle dogs. Its hard to find someone who understands the specific needs of a cattle dog. Beau came home happy and healthy. I'm glad we found Katie. We will definitely be using Katie again as a sitter. Thanks Katie!!”

“Melani was great taking care of CalCal my goldendoodle. We met up beforehand to make sure my dog would get along with her dog. She sent many photos during the boarding. Would use her again; thanks Melani!”

“Stephen watched our dog, Oliver, for us over a long weekend. He and his wife, Connie, were great and Ollie was very happy with them. He was definitely spoiled! We received several photos from Stephen while we were away, which is always nice to see. It was so reassuring to know that he was so well taken care of. We have already booked Stephen and Connie again for our next, longer trip!”

“Katie was kind, responsive and most importantly, flexible as I am learning that no matter how much I try to predict things, I need support that understands plans change! Communication was so easy and I feel like she tuned into the way Jasper communicated and plays easily and immediately! He will be coming back to hang with his new bffs for sure!”
