“We left Harper with Carole for 2 weeks while we were on vacation and Carole was great. Sent us daily photos of Harper playing with other dogs. Thank you Carole for taking such good care of her!”
“Amanda’s knowledge of dogs was apparent from my first meeting with her. It’s clear that Amanda cares for pets like they are her own. Amanda sent pictures throughout the weekend so I could see that my dog was really happy and having a great time. It was wonderful to be away knowing that my dog was safe and happy!”
“Adrienne watched our fur baby Triple for the first time overnight. She was great! Triple enjoyed his stay. Thank you for taking such good care of him. I highly recommend and will definitely be using her again.”
“I would be confident in leaving my dog with Tiffany again. She provided regular updates and photos. Early on, when my dog did not seem to be eating much of his regular food, Tiffany checked with me first and then added a little chicken and rice to his meal. That personal care got him eating again.”
“Diego & Amelia are fantastic! They provided pictures every day of our pup, including pictures of her sunbathing with their two dogs, who are absolutely adorable. They responded quickly to an adjustment request for pickup time, as well, which we greatly appreciated. Our dog is such a happy girl after spending time with them. This was the longest we have ever been away from our pup and their updates made us feel so at ease.”
“Hollie is an excellent dog sitter. This was the second time that we left our Jazzi with her and her dog Jovi for a week. She sent photos each day and I can tell she loves the dogs she sits as much as her own. Hollie is also very flexible and works with your schedule. She takes such great care of my Jazzi and I trust her with my girl.”
“Alexa was fabulous!!! She was so kind and easy to work with. My dogs had a Blast with her dog and her family. She kept me updated and sent pictures frequently. Her communication was always extremely prompt as well. I already made plans to use her again!”
“Michael and Loraine took great care of Jax, our Bichpoo. You can tell they have had dogs and are true dog lovers. Jax took to them right away, thanks to their loving manner and welcoming warmth. We’re already booked for our next trip!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Katherine! I feel so lucky to have found her! I know my little Frenchie, Mardi, will be excited for the next visit. Katherine was wonderful in sharing regular pictures and updates. Her family also showed my little guy lots of love. Hi highly recommend Katherine!!”
“Our dog Poncho stayed with Chonlada for a week while we were on vacation and we could not take him with us. She was very flexible and agreeable to a meet & greet beforehand. Poncho and her dog Tokie were similar in size, age, and activity level so they seemed to get along great. She has a large fenced property for the dogs to explore and run around. I got daily updates as well as pictures and videos of Poncho, which made my family and I feel better about leaving him. Chonlada and her family took great care of Poncho (spoiled him...lol) and made sure he ate his meals and slept comfortably. They also comforted him during a thunder storm, which he does not like. Chonlada even contacted me when she noticed that Poncho was licking his paws and had a small abrasion, which she treated and monitored. Thanks so much to Chonlada and her family and I would definitely recommend her for boarding and will use again when needed.”
“This was KoKo’s first time with Amanda and she was great at making her feel comfortable. She sent pictures and updates which made me happy. :) She also has a great big yard. looking forward to many more stays with Amanda. Definitely recommend her for your pup.”
About: What sets me apart is the level of personalized care and experience I bring. I have over 6 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. While we don’t have a fenced yard, I prioritize frequent walks, outdoor time, and supervised potty breaks to ensure dogs stay active and engaged. We also have a friendly, goofy, and welcoming Golden Retriever who loves having dog friends and helps new pups feel comfortable quickly. I focus on consistency, safety, and making sure every dog feels at home, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is part of my daily routine, not an afterthought. I’m available to board your dog or provide care for a few hours, depending on your needs. I’m fully available on weekends, and I also work from home on Mondays and Fridays, allowing me to give your dog consistent attention and companionship on those days as well. I usually take our dog out every four hours. But depending on your dog needs, i can adjust.Depending on your pups needs, i can keep them separate from our dog or keep them together. I am flexible.
“Kristin is great! Her house was well kept, with a nice backyard for playtime. Her pets made great companions and she took great care of my pup. She'll be my first choice next time I need someone to watch him.”
About: I currently work from home for a family business, but I am looking to expand my own business and passion - taking care of animals! I worked for doggy daycares and boarding facilities for 3.5 years, ensuring the safety, happiness, and health of a wide variety of dog breeds and ages. I have administered medications, completed dog handling courses, and grooming training as well. This led me to groom professionally full-time for 2 years after college. I now prefer to do at-home bathing sessions and spend more time with pets one-on-one in a homey environment. In addition to dogs, I have taken care of fish, cats, amphibians, lizards, and birds. I have a 9 year old bunny of my own, so I am well-versed in rabbit care. Throughout high school, I volunteered at PetSmart taking care of the cats and at Diane's Pet Supplies, too, walking their dogs. These are all in addition to being my primary neighborhood dog-sitter/walker. Pet sitting fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work remotely with a highly flexible schedule. This allows me to adjust my day around your pet’s needs—whether that means regular walks, consistent feeding times, play breaks, or simply being present for companionship. I’m able to provide frequent check-ins. For stays in my own house, because I’m home throughout the day, your pet will get plenty of attention, supervision, and interaction. My flexible schedule also allows me to closely follow your pet’s routine and provide consistent, attentive care to keep them comfortable and well cared for. I’m committed to providing attentive, reliable care for every pet I look after. I’m happy to take your dog on walks, follow feeding instructions closely, and administer any medications as needed. When caring for your pet in your home, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free while you’re away. I also pay close attention to behavior and overall well-being, ensuring your pet stays happy, healthy, and at ease. If your dog is staying in my home, they’ll be treated just like my own. They’ll enjoy plenty of affection, attention, and enrichment throughout the day—including couch privileges, treats (as approved), and lots of cuddles. Because I work from home, your pet will have near-constant supervision and companionship, allowing me to closely monitor their safety, comfort, and health for a smooth and enjoyable stay!

“Mackenna was great with my two cats, giving some extra time for the one when the other had a medical issue and went to stay with my sister who was running him back and forth to the vet. Raven was lonely without him. She kept me up to date with texts and photos — I would highly recommend her services!”
“I highly recommend Audrey for any pet sitting needs! She stopped by twice a day to care for my three cats while I went on vacation. I received pictures from her from each drop-in along with an update about how the drop-in went! I felt very comfortable leaving my cats in her hands!”
“Betty was superb again! She took care of our cats while we were away with such care - even bringing them a toy to help ease their nerves when there was construction on our street.”
“Molly did a great job watching our cats, making sure that they were fed and happy. Lots of update photos, and easy scheduling. I would recommend her to anyone needing a hand with their pets!”
“Julie was absolutely amazing with my kitties, and it was such a relief to know that they were in great hands while I was away! I loved getting the photos and thoughtful updates she provided, and my cats loved her! I would give her 10 stars out of 5 if I could!”
“We love Jessica! She treated and cared for my kitten Ruby with so much love. Ruby had the best time with Jessica. When I returned this morning, Ruby was so happy and looked so well taken care of. Jessica went above and beyond in taking care of my kitten. We will definitely be rebooking her for all future needs. Jessica is so sweet and really cares about animals and is so flexible with her schedule. Thank you for taking care of Ruby and for giving her so much love. We can’t wait to have you back over again 😊”
“Erika was excellent with my fur babies! I got pictures and updates on every visit. She took great care and was so polite and professional. She takes excellent pictures and put your mind at ease while away. Highly recommend her and will be using her again when we travel! Thank you!”
“Michael came 3 times a day for over a week for an hour at a time. He took time to spend with each of our 3 older dogs individually and sent multiple photos each time we was at our home. He gave in real time updates on food, bathroom breaks and ensured he gave each dog their medication. He brought our trash cans up our driveway, and brought it our mail before we even reached out to ask, and even took a photo of bees getting into our home while we were away in which we were able to prepare for before we returned from our vacation. He was wonderful for us and from the looks of our blink camera taking some videos in real time, the dogs loved him as well!! We will be requesting Michael each time we take a trip as we feel incredibly comfortable with his care.”
“Our cats loved Melodi! She was very professional and took cute photos of our cats. My very scared former feral girl came out and let Melodi pet her. She has a gift for pet care. Don't hesitate to get her for your pets.”

“Jean took great care of our energetic puppy George. She made sure he had active time as well as calm time to relax and nap. She was very accommodating of George's quirks (ie how he likes to put everything in his mouth still) and kept a close eye on him to keep him safe. We will definitely use Jean again when we need a break!”
“My very high-energy puppy had an absolute blast playing with dog friends and splashing in the water all day! Very grateful that she was enjoying her day while I was at work!”
“Emily is great with the pups. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets while away. I am so happy to have found her through Rover! Thanks.”
“Kristin is amazing! She responds quickly, sends the cutest picture updates, and our pups were very well taken care of (and had lots of fun). It was my first time using Rover and I’m so glad to have chosen Kristin - her professionalism and clear love for animals put me at ease quickly, and I would highly recommend!”
“We are so excited to have found Amanda on rover and our dog Moss loves his day care days with her! He's been a much happier boy since. He's a particular dog with anxiety and some minor health things and we felt really comfortable and safe leaving him in her care. It really feels like she listens, cares, and goes the extra mile to take care of him!”
“Belle had such an amazing time! Chonlada and her fam were absolutely amazing. We are from out of state and were a little nervous to leave Belle, but Chonlada made it such a great experience and took wonderful care of our pup. She even sent Belle home with a parting gift and her daughters drew a beautiful pic of Belle! I would certainly trust Chonlada with any dog!”
About: We have owned, rescued, and fostered many fur babies, including seniors and those that have medical needs and hospice care. Fur babies are unconditional love! I am retired and have a lot of time for fur babies. Taking care of fur babies are what keeps me active and, on the go. I have a fenced yard and three smaller dogs that love to play and cuddle. My home is more suited for fur babies then humans!

“Diego and Amelia were great with our dog, Athena! Came in from out of town to attend an event and Diego and Amelia accommodated our hectic schedule. Thank you again!”
“Alexa was amazing. Super responsive, sent a ton of pictures and kept me updated. Roo had a cone on during his stay and when the one I had broke, Alexa made she he got a new one same day. Would highly recommend”
“Amber was great! She is super responsive, sends many pictures and I could tell my dog was well loved and taken care of! Her pricing is perfect as well. I’m glad I chose Amber and will absolutely choose her again!”

About: About Me Hi, I’m Pam! I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all breeds—puppies to seniors—and treat every pet as family. I’m organized, caring, and deeply dependable, and I’d be honored to care for your pup. Why Choose Me? Flexible & Present: I work from home and dedicate undivided attention to each pet—companionship is always there. Routine-Focused: I follow your pet’s normal routine closely—mealtimes, walks, play sessions—to help them feel at ease. Why I Love Pet Sitting Dogs and cats have been part of my life forever—I can’t imagine not having at least one around! I balance caring for pets with raising my son—I’m home, present, and fully engaged. We’re warmly present at all times—your pet will be with company and attention throughout their care. Thank you for considering me—I look forward to making your pet feel right at home! 1. Adhere to Your Pet’s Regular Routine As an effective sitter, I stick closely to your pet’s feeding, walking, and activity schedules to reduce stress and help them feel at ease. Consistency makes all the difference—pets thrive on familiarity and structure. 2. Lean on Written Schedules & Reminders I rely on alarms, digital reminders, or a shared care document outlining feeding times, walks, and medication schedules. Detailed care plans—not just verbal instructions—help ensure nothing is overlooked. 3. Balance Walks, Play, and Mental Stimulation Your pup will enjoy walks in the morning and evening, play sessions in the yard or with toys, and brain games like puzzles or training drills. This balanced mix keeps pets physically active and mentally engaged, which is a hallmark of personalized, attentive care. 4. Clear Communication with Owners I provide updates via text, photos, or videos—tailored to your preference. Whether you'd like a daily summary or only updates if something important comes up, I'll make sure our communication fits what works best for you. Clear, consistent updates help build trust and peace of mind. 1. Create a Secure, Pet‑Safe Environment I prioritize safety by pet-proofing all areas—tucking away loose items, securing small objects, and removing anything toxic within reach. I supervise pets at all times, even in fenced yards, and avoid assuming familiarity protects against escapes or mishaps. 2. Use Barriers and Supervision for Added Security To prevent accidental exits, I employ secondary barriers—like baby gates or exercise pens—when entering or exiting through doors. Even in clients’ homes, I discuss acceptable barrier use ahead of time to ensure safety. 3. Establish Safe Boundaries & Routines I maintain separate feeding areas and “own spaces” for each pet to avoid tension and provide comfort. Cleanliness and routine are central—each pet has its own safe zone, whether in my home or yours- 4. Meet & Greet for Confidence and Preparedness I always recommend a Meet & Greet before booking—this gives us a chance to establish comfort and go over logistics such as key access, gate codes, and safe entry routes. It also helps me anticipate quirky behaviors and preferences that enhance care. 5. Respecting Your Home & Access Protocols When caring for pets in your home, I ensure a secure access plan—whether through tested codes, spare keys, or lockboxes—and always return keys promptly. I conduct perimeter checks to confirm gates are closed, trash secured, and hazardous zones off-limits. 6. Open, Tailored Communication Builds Trust I’ll work with you to determine your preferred update style—daily summaries, photo check-ins, or notes only if something unusual occurs. Consistent, clear communication not only reassures you, but also ensures your pet’s care is seamless. 7. Emergency Preparedness Included I keep emergency contact info—including vets, local animal hospitals, and your trusted contacts—on hand. I’m prepared to act quickly and responsibly in case of illness or safety concerns. 8. Built‑In Assurance through Rover’s Standards As part of the Rover community, I’ve passed a comprehensive background check and adhere to Rover’s Trust & Safety protocols, including the Rover Guarantee and responsive booking protection. Our communications always stay within the platform to ensure transparency and security.
About: What truly sets me apart from other sitters is my deep and varied pet care experience, fueled by genuine love and mirroring the dedicated care I provide my own furry family. Beyond standard sitting, I offer an understanding of canine behavior and individual needs through hands-on dog training, certified pet therapy volunteering, shelter and rescue assistance and fostering dogs of all ages and backgrounds. This comprehensive experience allows me to provide specialized care, especially for puppies and senior dogs. My commitment goes beyond simply supervising dogs. I strive to create a comfortable, enriching and safe environment where your dog is family, receiving the individualized attention and understanding they deserve. Pet care is deeply integrated into my daily life; it's my full-time dedication. Daily Routine: Morning (6:00 AM - 8:00 AM): My day often begins with my own pets. This includes: Feeding: Ensuring everyone gets their appropriate breakfast, fresh water and medications Potty Breaks: Taking them outside for their morning elimination. Exercise/Playtime: A walk in the yard, a quick game of fetch, to get their energy levels up. Health Checks: A quick visual assessment to ensure everyone is looking and acting healthy. Mid-Morning/Afternoon (Variable): This is often when I schedule client visits or depending on the day, this might involve: running errands Boarding Care: For dogs staying with me, this includes regular potty breaks, supervised playtime in my yard (often integrated with my own dogs if appropriate and safe), and individual attention. Evening (5:00 PM - 8:00 PM): This mirrors the morning routine for my own pets: Feeding: Dinner time for everyone. Potty Breaks: Evening elimination walks. Relaxation/Affection Time: Cuddling on the couch, gentle petting or quiet playtime. Preparing for the Night: Ensuring fresh water and comfortable sleeping arrangements. Late Evening (Before Bed - 10:00 PM - 10:30 PM)): A final potty break before we all settle in for the night. Mack Pack Pet Services LLC - Where your dog is family here! Licensed & Insured. Caring for your beloved pet is my full-time passion, ensuring they receive dedicated attention and become a happy member of our pack! We ensure a smooth transition with carefully supervised introductions to our resident pack: Marley and Asher (Great Danes) and Mea (Shepherd Mix ). I am unable to board dominant or aggressive dogs. They'll enjoy stimulating playtime in our monitored group setting on our expansive 2.5-acre fenced property. If needed, your dog can retreat to its own secure, comfortable room (with optional crate) for peaceful rest. You can expect a happy and well-exercised dog upon their return.
About: Im 26 experienced with all size dogs and all breeds. Im willing to stay at pet owners home if needed or can bring to my house if absolutely necessary and the dogs attitude will decide on being in my home due to me having 5 dogs of my own most are 8+ I love to meet new pets all the time. Puppies are my weakness to be honest. I may set up a photo shoot for your dog just to remember all the cute faces ive worked with. I do prefer reaccuring walks with the same dogs so they can get used to 1 normal person to walk them when needed and so the walker knows what to expect from the dog themselves. Look forward to working and building a great client base. I’m a former vet tech and have been trained in medication administration, nail trims and baths. I’m also certified in cpr and wound care. I have experience with all breeds big and small mean and nice. It’s a full time job for me both rover and private. I’m always meeting new clients to add to the team and I always stay up to date on all the new certifications I can get to keep making things better for clients. I have a small fenced section of my yard for quick potty breaks. I prefer to walk my dogs and any guests I have over.

I’m fully available on weekends, and I also work from home on Mondays and Fridays, allowing me to give your dog consistent attention and companionship on those days as well. I usually take our dog out every four hours. But depending on your dog needs, i can adjust.Depending on your pups needs, i can keep them separate from our dog or keep them together. I am flexible.
“Joel is prompt to respond. My dog can be uncomfortable meeting new people and dogs. Joel has a keen understanding of dog behavior and uses lots of positive reinforcement. He handles greetings, meal times, and playtime in a professional manner. I felt comfortable leaving my anxious dog in his care and my dog quickly warmed up to him, his wife, and his dogs.”
About: I currently work from home for a family business, but I am looking to expand my own business and passion - taking care of animals! I worked for doggy daycares and boarding facilities for 3.5 years, ensuring the safety, happiness, and health of a wide variety of dog breeds and ages. I have administered medications, completed dog handling courses, and grooming training as well. This led me to groom professionally full-time for 2 years after college. I now prefer to do at-home bathing sessions and spend more time with pets one-on-one in a homey environment. In addition to dogs, I have taken care of fish, cats, amphibians, lizards, and birds. I have a 9 year old bunny of my own, so I am well-versed in rabbit care. Throughout high school, I volunteered at PetSmart taking care of the cats and at Diane's Pet Supplies, too, walking their dogs. These are all in addition to being my primary neighborhood dog-sitter/walker. Pet sitting fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work remotely with a highly flexible schedule. This allows me to adjust my day around your pet’s needs—whether that means regular walks, consistent feeding times, play breaks, or simply being present for companionship. I’m able to provide frequent check-ins. For stays in my own house, because I’m home throughout the day, your pet will get plenty of attention, supervision, and interaction. My flexible schedule also allows me to closely follow your pet’s routine and provide consistent, attentive care to keep them comfortable and well cared for. I’m committed to providing attentive, reliable care for every pet I look after. I’m happy to take your dog on walks, follow feeding instructions closely, and administer any medications as needed. When caring for your pet in your home, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free while you’re away. I also pay close attention to behavior and overall well-being, ensuring your pet stays happy, healthy, and at ease. If your dog is staying in my home, they’ll be treated just like my own. They’ll enjoy plenty of affection, attention, and enrichment throughout the day—including couch privileges, treats (as approved), and lots of cuddles. Because I work from home, your pet will have near-constant supervision and companionship, allowing me to closely monitor their safety, comfort, and health for a smooth and enjoyable stay!
“Emanuel was incredible with our 2 dogs. We booked him very last minute when our other sitter bailed the night before a 3 week work trip for us. Our girls attached to him immediately and it made us feel so much better! He took a ton of pics and videos and sent them to us multiple times a day. Gave feeding updates and genuinely cared for our dogs.”
