“Maddy is knowledgeable, caring and very communicative. She was able to take our dog on short notice while were were dealing with come emergencies. She understands and is very experienced with dogs (and their humans) and left us feeling very at ease. I would definitely recommend reaching out to her for caring for your dog!!!”
“Joel and Crystal are lifesavers. While I was out of state at a conference my Dog center unfortunately canceled halfway through the booking. I was very stressed out and was able to connect with Joel and Chrystal to take Pancake for an additional few days. She had a great time and I can tell because I got pictures of him with his tongue almost hanging to the floor. He must’ve instantly felt very safe with them being moved around a lot over a few days. I got pictures of him getting cuddles with kids and playing with other dogs. The nice thing was he was able just to check on the dogs, but was allowed his own space just to go and sleep when he wanted to. Came back with a huge smile on his face and completely worn out and slept for a day Their communication was great and easy and extremely responsive. They let me know everything that was going on, especially knowing how nervous I was that we had to book without a meet and greet. To top it off my train was late by three hours and they were very accommodating on the pick up time. Pancake can’t wait to go back and see them.”
“Diane has such calm, patient energy for dogs. She has a great house and a big yard for them to run around. You can tell she loves dogs, and loves having them at her house. We felt so comfortable leaving Annie there for 10 days, which was a long stay! She was loved and cared for in every way.”
“We are so glad we found Amanda and Matthew, and can highly recommend them. They kept us updated with pictures and videos of our pup, Wiley. The only problem was, Wiley looked like he was having so much fun, we figured he wouldn’t ever want to leave! 😎”
“Juno was well cared for and happy when I picked him up after staying with Erin. Great communication and daily photos. I would definitely book with Erin again.”
“Great care for our Minka! Consistent updates with pics. Daily trips to the dog park. Very pleased with the care of our dog. Will definitely continue to use them in the future.”
“Our Princess had a great time staying with Lauren and Poppy. Lauren was wonderful with daily updates and photos. We could tell by the photos that Princess felt comfortable in Lauren’s home. She also took Princess for “walks” in a pet papoose. We would not hesitate to contact Lauren again next time we are in need for a pet sitter. Thanks Lauren!”
“We had Ying watch our kitty cat, Mr. Ribs, for a week while we were away. He was a fantastic cat sitter. He sent tons of pictures and videos and kept us updated with his sleeping and eating habits. Ying played with Mr. Ribs and kept him entertained. This was comforting for us as the little guy loves people, so leaving him alone or isolated was not an option. Ying was a great companion for the kitty, and we will definitely use him in the future.”
“They were both awesome!! We were coming from out of town so naturally nervous to leave our dog, but they were so comfortable with him. It was obvious they have dealt with a lot of different temperaments and were super communicative and sent lots of great pics!”
“Joe did a great job with my dog. He sent pictures and updates daily and gave me such peace of mind that my girl was well taken care of. Will absolutely be using him for boarding again.”
“Keith and Megan and family took excellent care of my dog Katy! Their home was very comfortable, despite near-100°temps. She loves going to stay with them. She crashes when she comes home so happy! Thanks again, all!”
“Angeline was amazing! She sent pictures and kept us updated with how our dog Bambi was doing. She cleaned all our stuff we packed for her too: blankets, bowls, etc. She has a really nice space and backyard, and Bambi had so much fun!”
“Wonderful experience with Alexis. Excellent communication. She took awesome care of Cooper. I was gone for a week. She sent pictures and updates. He was very happy and I never worried about him. Her love of pets is genuine.”
“Teresa was the best person we could have pick to leave our puppy with. She sent lots of pictures and eased our mind. We were so scared to leave her for the first time with someone we didn’t know, but we are glad we chose Teresa.”
“My dog is the anxious type but was very content here. She loved being around kids and getting outside. Cecilia was willing to be flexible with pick up and drop off and was easy to get in contact with.”
“Tessa and Tyler were wonderfully attentive to our rambunctious Zuzu. They sent us adorable pictures and videos of her playing outside and doing her typical sleeping paws up. She totally enjoyed herself and we know absolutely nobody, even in our extended family who could have given her such personalized care.”

“Brandy did a wonderful job with my cat Tiger for the weekend. I can always tell by how he acts when I get home from a trip if he’s happy and well adjusted. Thanks to Brandy he is was just that! I trust Brandy and will ask her to housesit again.”
“Melanie was a life saver. I was on a trip for Christmas. The family friend of my husband was supposed to watch Isabel. We had not heard from her for 18 hrs. So I had a friend check on Isabel. But, she could only do it for 2 days and we were going to be gone for another day. On Dec 24th at the last minute, Melanie took my emergency visit for the 25th and at am amazing rate. Thank you so much for helping Isabel and our sanity. I will definitely be asking in the future and recommending you to everyone”

“Mia was absolutely wonderful and went above and beyond to take care of my two kitties! She was very communicative and always let me know if she was going to need to come over at a different time. The kitties seemed very comfortable with her and I will absolutely book with her again!”
“As a first time user of Rover, it gave us a lot of confidence to meet Tyler in advance at our house and review the details of cat care. Tyler was right on time every day and sent me pictures which was so lovely. Even my moody cat warmed up to him after a few days! I think he did a great job and I plan on bringing him back for our next trip!”
About: I’m experienced in caring for cats with a range of personalities and temperaments, from independent and reserved cats to those who enjoy frequent interaction and affection! My background in veterinary medicine has provided me with a strong understanding of feline behavior and body language, allowing me to recognize signs of stress, boundaries, and build trust at each cat's comfort level. Maintaining a clean and comfortable environment is a priority in my care. I am huge on litter box maintenance and understand the important role cleanliness plays in a cat's overall well-being. As a veterinary assistant, I have experience administering medications and caring for cats with ongoing medical needs. I am comfortable following medication schedules and providing care that ensures your cat's routine remains consistent while you are away. I also have experience with routine grooming, including brushing and nail trims, and am happy to incorporate these services when they are part of your cat's regular care routine. My goal is to provide patient, compassionate care so that your cat feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of cats my whole life. It amazes me how different their personalities are. I love to cuddle and play with cats. Whether they’re entertaining or mellow, they make for the best company.

About: I have had countless cats throughout my childhood, at least 7 to the current year, my baby Herbert. They seem to love me, even the shy ones. I’m very patient and willing to sit and learn your cat. They can’t trust me to feed them if I can’t simply enter the room without them leaving. I love playing with kitties, especially throwing toys for them or my cats' favorite hair ties, letting them adventure, and feeding them on time so I don’t get angry meows.
About: I am extremely cat savvy and take pride in my level of cat knowledge. On my free time outside of work and pet sitting, you can find working hard with a local cat rescue and caring for my many foster cats (in addition to my three personal cats) at all times.
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my entire life, starting with the two German Shepards (Satori and Jazzy) my parents had when I was born all the way up to my two cats (Lady and Tigerlily) and dog (Clyde) who bring me joy and purpose every day. I grew up with dogs, cats, chickens and goats, learning to care, appreciate and work with animals from a young age. I’ve been professionally pet and house sitting for 4 years now and have loved every second of it.

“So many good things to say! This is the first time I've needed to hire a dog sitter and I am so happy. They sent me lots of pictures and videos, totally understood her needs and took amazing care of my fur baby. They genuinely enjoyed spending time with her and made me feel very comfortable. 100% I would recommend them.”
“Plain and simple, Madison was nothing less than a pure blessing caring for my puppy Sailor. She didn’t simply care for her, she made her part of her family. Finding Madison (Maddy) to care for my pup was an answered prayer. I cannot sing her praise enough! 5++++++++ stars!!”
“Diane was really conscientious about introducing the dogs and how my senior girl would acclimate and I really appreciated that as Lucy is not used to day care. She was flexible about time, has a nice big back yard and a calm demeanor. We will stay again if back in the area!”
“I appreciated Claire's thoughtful intake process, her speed at replying, and her feedback from my girl's visit. Claire clearly cares about dogs and facilitating doggie-people relationships. I recommend her and look forward to booking future stays with her.”
“Rogue had an amazing time at his first daycare with Valerie! Her home is truly a dog’s paradise, she’s put so much care into making it fun and safe for pups. As a first-time Rover user, I was a bit anxious, but Valerie eased my worries by answering all my questions and sending thoughtful updates and pictures throughout the day. Rogue came home happy, tired, and completely at ease. It seemed like he didn’t want to leave! We fully trust Valerie and will definitely be booking with her again for daycare and overnight stays. 😊”

“Sabrina took such great care of my boy Everett for daycare…I could tell from the photos that he was having a fun yet still relaxed time, especially when she snapped a shot of him napping fully splayed out on his back on the floor! He only does that when he feels totally safe and happy, so that was great to see. He also comes home tired but in a very calm/content way…I will be bringing him back for sure! Thank you!”
“Ying is absolutely fantastic! He took great care of our dog, making sure he had lots of exercise and affection and treats! He sent lots of videos and pictures during the day so we knew he was in good hands. We are very picky about who we trust with our dog and Ying is top notch! We have already booked another day with him. Thank you, Ying!”

“We had an outstanding experience with Erika. She really went the extra mile in being prepared, communicating well with us and giving Ruby a lot of exercise, as well as companionship with her dog. Highly recommended.”

“Viri is wonderful! I needed a puppy sitter for my 9 week old puppy that I had just brought home, and was nervous about leaving such a young puppy for a whole day. But Viri was excellent! So sweet, easy to work, with and great at communicating. She sent me pictures and videos of Starla all day while I was at work to let me know she was doing well and having fun. I would gladly have Viri watch her again!”
“I couldn't ask for a better sitter for my dog Juniper. She felt right at home in Jamie's house and with her family. They gave her lots of attention throughout the day and even took her to hang out with the neighbors' dogs. Jamie sent me updates and lots of pictures throughout the day and that really helped to ease my anxiety while at work. 10/10 would recommend to everyone for dog sitting and I will definitely be bringing Juniper back to Jamie in the future!!!”

About: Owner of a Siberian husky for over a decade. Have trained her since she was a puppy. She is now a senior and requires minimal walks compared to when she was young.

Pets left in my care are in the best care possible. I am currently working part time, which makes it very easy to care for animals at the same time. I usually have 3 whole days off per week and my shifts are typically no longer than 6 hours. I typically do whatever makes the pet and the owner most comfortable, such as regular drop-in’s, overnight stays at the pets home, sleeping next to the pet. I keep up with any typical needs of the pet such as bathing, walking, etc. and I also like to keep the owner updated and send photos.

As both a veterinary professional and the owner of an anxious dog, I am skilled at building trust to help nervous pets feel safe and comfortable in my care. Senior dogs are another area where I have significant experience! I understand the importance of maintaining medication schedules and am comfortable administering a variety of medications.

About: All my life I’ve been obsessed with dogs 🐶 When I was finishing up nursing school, I needed to find some part time work to help make ends meet. I found a job as a kennel technician at a commercial dog boarding facility - where I mostly cleaned up to 36 dogs daily messes and gave them social enrichment. I quickly jumped up the short ladder of management and took over as CEO right around my first year mark of employment. I have cared for hundreds, possibly a thousand plus dogs in the last half of my entire lifetime. I’ve worked hard to help dogs and owners alike understand eachother better - communication often needs no words. I specialize in “project pups”, socialization and reactivity. I’ve taken care of newborn puppies to teenage obedience school dropouts - through the medically fragile & elderly pooches on palliative care & absolutely everything in between. I’ve worked in a rescue as an adoption coordinator and had the extreme pleasure of helping people and pooches find their forever spaces together. Along with rescuing over a dozen dogs of my own over the years & nursing several back to health from horrific conditions. Dogs are my passion - simple as that. Nothing makes me happier than helping a dog & owner relationship thrive. I am a stay at home mom, my boys are 2 & 3 years old. They’ve been raised around dogs & already have learned a healthy respect for their space. I am hyper vigilant & always err on the extreme side of caution for everyone’s safety - especially when it comes to those tricky resources. Other than weekly appointments on Mondays - we have a very flexible and open schedule. Our yard is fully fenced with 6 foot - reinforced wood fencing. Gates are double locked to keep toddlers from opening them - dogs too. I have a 10 year old spayed female border collie that I picked from her litter at 3 weeks old. She’s my right hand gal and socially bulletproof when it comes to hanging out with her furry friends. I often used her as the “Ice Breaker” dog when I ran the boarding facility - meaning she did all the temperament testing for any newly boarded dogs we were socially unsure about. We have multiple baby gates, and crate option for separation of space. A dog door built into our back door leading into our fully fenced, toddlerized but maintained, grassy residential yard on a quarter acre. We live in a very quiet tiny town on an even quieter little street, perfect for safely regulated walks and training opportunities.

About: I have experience with all sorts of animals. I have worked with dogs and cats and most other household pets including snakes and birds. I have also worked with horses and most livestock farm animals. I make a daily roster of animals to care for and schedule my time accordingly. I care for my animals first always and help my community with animal care needs. I have a large fenced yard with room to run. I have 2 female dogs that are well trained and managed. The smaller mutt is elderly (11) and has a room of her own where she will put herself as needed. My big girl Sally, the Bernese is friendly to all animals large or small and really the very best calm neutral dog I have ever known.
About: I work as a veterinary technician and have 10+ years of pet sitting under my belt. I also have a private mobile nail trimming business that I run part time on the side, I have a pretty large client base with many references from that. I am comfortable working with pets of all shapes and sizes, and don’t have a problem working with pets that may have behavioral concerns. I can administer medications and even care for pets with serious medical needs. I am currently working full time at a veterinary hospital but I have 3 days off per week for all day service and can make home stops in the AM before work and PM after work. Unfortunately at this time I do not offer services in my own home - I have two dogs and two cats of my own, and one of my dogs is elderly and extremely grouchy so bringing in outside pets is not an option for our household. I am no longer offering overnights unless it’s a single overnight. My typical client hires me to stop in 2-3 times daily to feed, walk, medicate, and play with their pets! I also offer dog walking services and mobile nail trimming/basic grooming!
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, growing up with both cats and dogs of all personalities, from easygoing labs to high energy, sometimes anxious heelers. That taught me early on how to read animal behavior, stay patient, and build trust with pets at their own pace! In college, I started out studying pre vet before following my passion into wildlife biology, and I’ll be starting grad school this fall studying ecology and evolution with a focus on wildlife. I also spent a summer working with a nonprofit dog rescue in Houston, Texas, helping save dogs from the streets and from kill shelters. It was hands on and sometimes challenging, but really rewarding. I helped with medications, cared for dogs with all kinds of temperaments, and made sure each one felt safe and cared for. I truly believe every animal is special and deserves patience, understanding, and a little extra love. I’ve always found it easy to connect with animals, and I love seeing even shy or anxious pets start to relax and show their personality. Right now I’m saving up for grad school, and honestly I can’t think of a better way to spend my time than being around animals. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them like my own! I currently have Wednesday's and Thursday's off. I am free all day to take your pups on a mid day walk or keep them company while you are out of town! The rest of my week I work from 9:00-6:00 so my availability is more limited. I live on acreage in the Veneta area. Our property is mostly fenced and includes an orchard, a creek, and plenty of space for play and adventure! I have one pup of my own who absolutely loves other dogs. He’s a medium-sized herding dog who would be thrilled to show a new friend around the property. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always strive to be a respectful and gracious guest. I’m a very tidy, thoughtful person and take great care to leave your home exactly as you left it, if not better! I believe it’s incredibly valuable for animals to remain in an environment where they feel safe and comfortable. I have a lot of experience with anxious animals and believe that a calm, warm demeanor, along with a consistent routine, is key to making sure your pet feels happy, secure, and well cared for.
About: We specialize in medium to extra large dogs here on the farm. From puppies to hospice aged canines, we have the experience and welcome all breeds. Our farm specializes in retirement horses, so we take pet care responsibilities seriously. We are home most of the day, but do have on-call local transport appointments that may take us away from the house for a few hours. We have a fully fenced 9 acre farm. We go for romps with the dogs in the pastures not being used by the horses. Dogs are family to us, yet they are dogs.

“Maddy is knowledgeable, caring and very communicative. She was able to take our dog on short notice while were were dealing with come emergencies. She understands and is very experienced with dogs (and their humans) and left us feeling very at ease. I would definitely recommend reaching out to her for caring for your dog!!!”
“Joel and Crystal are lifesavers. While I was out of state at a conference my Dog center unfortunately canceled halfway through the booking. I was very stressed out and was able to connect with Joel and Chrystal to take Pancake for an additional few days. She had a great time and I can tell because I got pictures of him with his tongue almost hanging to the floor. He must’ve instantly felt very safe with them being moved around a lot over a few days. I got pictures of him getting cuddles with kids and playing with other dogs. The nice thing was he was able just to check on the dogs, but was allowed his own space just to go and sleep when he wanted to. Came back with a huge smile on his face and completely worn out and slept for a day Their communication was great and easy and extremely responsive. They let me know everything that was going on, especially knowing how nervous I was that we had to book without a meet and greet. To top it off my train was late by three hours and they were very accommodating on the pick up time. Pancake can’t wait to go back and see them.”
“We are so glad we found Amanda and Matthew, and can highly recommend them. They kept us updated with pictures and videos of our pup, Wiley. The only problem was, Wiley looked like he was having so much fun, we figured he wouldn’t ever want to leave! 😎”
“Juno was well cared for and happy when I picked him up after staying with Erin. Great communication and daily photos. I would definitely book with Erin again.”
“Great care for our Minka! Consistent updates with pics. Daily trips to the dog park. Very pleased with the care of our dog. Will definitely continue to use them in the future.”
“We had Ying watch our kitty cat, Mr. Ribs, for a week while we were away. He was a fantastic cat sitter. He sent tons of pictures and videos and kept us updated with his sleeping and eating habits. Ying played with Mr. Ribs and kept him entertained. This was comforting for us as the little guy loves people, so leaving him alone or isolated was not an option. Ying was a great companion for the kitty, and we will definitely use him in the future.”
“They were both awesome!! We were coming from out of town so naturally nervous to leave our dog, but they were so comfortable with him. It was obvious they have dealt with a lot of different temperaments and were super communicative and sent lots of great pics!”
“Joe did a great job with my dog. He sent pictures and updates daily and gave me such peace of mind that my girl was well taken care of. Will absolutely be using him for boarding again.”

“Angeline was amazing! She sent pictures and kept us updated with how our dog Bambi was doing. She cleaned all our stuff we packed for her too: blankets, bowls, etc. She has a really nice space and backyard, and Bambi had so much fun!”
“Wonderful experience with Alexis. Excellent communication. She took awesome care of Cooper. I was gone for a week. She sent pictures and updates. He was very happy and I never worried about him. Her love of pets is genuine.”
“Teresa was the best person we could have pick to leave our puppy with. She sent lots of pictures and eased our mind. We were so scared to leave her for the first time with someone we didn’t know, but we are glad we chose Teresa.”
“My dog is the anxious type but was very content here. She loved being around kids and getting outside. Cecilia was willing to be flexible with pick up and drop off and was easy to get in contact with.”
“Tessa and Tyler were wonderfully attentive to our rambunctious Zuzu. They sent us adorable pictures and videos of her playing outside and doing her typical sleeping paws up. She totally enjoyed herself and we know absolutely nobody, even in our extended family who could have given her such personalized care.”
“Sarah and Anthony were the perfect sitters for our little dog. They also have a big dog and small dog to keep her company. Their house is very dog friendly as are they, thank you so much for taking such good care of her and sending pictures. This experience could not have been better!”
“Caitlin was easy to communicate with, and her house is perfect for pet sitting, replete with a grassy backyard and dog door. Comfy, clean, welcoming environment. You can tell she really cares for the pets in her charge. Future repeat customer!”

“Highly recommend Corynne and Matthew! They watched our 2 dogs while we were out of the country for 11 days. They did great with both of them, which are completely different in their needs: one a very energetic 2 year old heeler mix and the other a 16 year old lab mix. They administered meds for our senior also. Our dogs had such a great time, they didn’t want to leave. Will be booking again - thanks!”
