“Kathy watched our dog for a week and Nova had a great time! Kathy pays attention to every detail and ensures our dog is comfortable and happy! This was our second booking with Kathy and we hope she is always available if we need her!!”
“I was very happy with Jaideep and his wife. During the meet and greet, I felt so comfortable. Zara made herself at home immediately. They kept me updated several times a day with messages and pictures, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that my little girl was well cared for and getting lots of attention. I truly appreciated the communication. I will be using them again. Highly recommended!”
“De’Andra was amazing and sent pictures all throughout the day for this anxious dog mom! Super communicative and couldn’t have asked for a better person to look out and play. Walter enjoyed himself and made a new furry friend, Crosby, as well!”
“My liv had the best time here! She got to play with new friends and was extremely well cared for. I got a lot of updates and photos throughout her stay which made me feel really happy with my choice in letting her stay with these lovely people!”
“I felt very good about the care I was receiving from videos and pictures. I felt max was in good hands and it showed a very well organised house with a fenced in yard in the back. I will definitely use him again. Thanks again”
“Vivian did a great job watching my dog! She gave very good updates throughout and it seemed like he had a blast with lots of time running around in her nice big yard. It is very clear Vivian loves animals and treats all the dogs she watches like they are her own.”
“Angel and her family treat my Rex and me so well! However, the best reference is when I pick up Rex, on the way to the car, he turns around, trots back to Angel's gate and barks for to let him back in HER house. Is it a bad thing when you ate jealous of your "Rover Angel" because your fur baby does not want to leave when you pick him up...as I said, this is the best reference. Angel....Thank you!!”
“Ashley and Jerrell were awesome caregivers to Oreo. They communicated along the way with updates and photos. I appreciated they accommodated for Oreo's lack of stays away by making changes along the way to make him feel comfortable. Thanks to their wonderful family & fur babies Oreo felt right at home! R/ Yolanda”
“Oleg was wonderful to work with. He was responsive and took our dogs last minute when we had to go out of town for a funeral. Our pups had so much fun with his family and his lab. They both came home exhausted from lots of play time! We will definitely use Oleg’s services again.”
“We are always glad to have Reese spend time with Bobbi and family. He receives impeccable care with every stay! We are truly blessed to have such a thoughtful caregiver for our Reese!”
“Krista was absolutely amazing! She took care of Nikko last minute and made everything so easy. I could tell right away that she truly loves animals Nikko felt comfortable with her instantly. She kept me updated, sent pictures, and treated him like her own. I’m so grateful for her kindness and flexibility. I’ll definitely be booking with her again! Highly recommend!”
“Amy and Patrick were so sweet and awesome to my 8-week old puppy, Lila, while I was away. They took excellent care of her. Amy and Patrick are friendly, responsible, and pet-loving good people. I highly recommend them for pet sitting, walking your dog, etc. I will certainly use their services again!”
“Alexandra and Robert did an amazing job with Skye! It was her first time away from home after being rescued in November so we did not know what to expect. They sent many pictures and kept us updated throughout our trip. We will definitely use them again for future boarding needs.”
“Jonathan and Dana took great care of our dog Otis. It's never easy to leave him when we go away, but knowing that he is with them puts my mind at ease. They love Otis like he is their own and you can't ask for much more than that! Otis adores them as well. I highly recommend them.”
“Heather is a great doggie sitter! She boarded our little guy, Obi, and he seemed very well cared for and loved. Special thanks to you Heather for taking him a few hours earlier than expected.”
“Michelle did a fantastic job with my pup. She followed all my little tips for feeding her, went on walks, made sure my dog wasn’t anxious, and made my pup feel at home. Michelle also sent pics of my pup, was very flexible for drill-off and pick-up times, and was very communicative! Would absolutely recommend!”
“Rebecca was an awesome sitter. My pug was a bit naughty and she made sure to control her during her stay. She made sure to send pics everyday I was away which is really comforting knowing of their condition the entire time.”
“She was so awesome to work with answering any questions we had and took all of our concerns and requests seriously and provided Sid with wonderful care. Love the pictures and check in she sent just highly recommend”

“Stephanie is great with cats!! I was gone for a week and honestly my cats act like I was gone for a day. She played with them way more than I do, so I think they're going to miss her! She was so in tune with my boys that she noticed that one of them was trying to "communicate" an issue with his water fountain. She noticed, talked to me, and she addressed his complaint. If you have cats, I strongly recommend Stephanie. She's the best!”
“Hanna took wonderful care of our cats for over a month, and we couldn't be happier with her service. She was incredibly helpful, flexible, and reliable throughout the entire time. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our cats were in such caring and capable hands while we were away. We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats, and we truly appreciate everything Hanna did for us. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate cat sitter!”
“Melinda responded promptly to my last minute request and showed up on time. She listened and followed directions and was respectful to my wishes. Melinda was friendly and handled the animals with care. She was kind to the humans too. I recommend her and will use again.”
“Lindsay has watched our cats for a couple of years now and she is great! Responsible, communicative, friendly, and loves the animals. Does a great job even with our cat who has medical needs. We are so happy to have found someone we can trust with our fur babies!”
About: I have cared for friends cats in the past, providing drop in visits two times each day. This included feeding, scooping the litter box, washing and changing out water and food bowls, and playing with the cats for a little bit.
About: I have always had a connection with animals. I wasn't able to get my first pet until I was 10 and it was a guinea pig...fast forward 22 years and that connection and passion for animals has not changed. I worked as a veterinary technician for 6 years including school, most of which was in Maine. I no longer work as a technician but still love to fill my time with taking care of people's pets. I currently have a pretty open schedule. The only reason I would not be able to do certain days would be due to medical appointments or family obligations. When I care for your pet I will be able to spend as much time playing, walking, relaxing. Whatever you and they may want or need. I am able to give medication including insulin and fluids.
About: I truly believe that pets are part of the family and am here to treat yours as my own. I am the first person my friends turn to when they need a sitter, and have both hosted dogs in my house and stayed with them in their own. I also enjoy pet visits and walks! I work as a teacher, so most of my availability is on the weekend and during summer months, although I am available for evening visits or walks during the week. I have a large fenced in yard that is great for running and playing and live in a neighborhood ideal for walks. I have a large crate available, if your dog’s routine includes crating. My own golden retriever would love to be friends with and keep your pet company! While I allow pets on my furniture and beds, I will follow the rules established for your pet. Your pet will receive plenty of love and attention!
“Beyond appreciate her being available for a last minute call close to the holiday. She’s super sweet and makes being away from the pets a little easier for me. Thank you again!”
“Lily took excellent care of our cats, including our elderly cat who needs medication and has been having challenges using the litter box. One of our other cats is very shy, but he warmed up to Lily and let her pet him & didn’t hide like he usually does with visitors. The cats & the house were all in great condition when we returned from our vacation. We are so happy to have booked with Lily!”
About: Cats hold a special place in my heart and I am comfortable with all cat personalities. I understand the importance of respecting cats boundaries and work around their comfortability. I provide drop ins, playtime, feeding, litter care and medication if needed. I’m patient and gentle, and focus on reading cat’s body language for affection and playtime. No matter the cat, I’ll make sure your kitty is safe and secure while you’re away from home :)
About: I have taken care of many kinds of cats since I was a little kid, ranging from the strays we fed to our own cats. I have my own cat who I give medication in food to, and care for her completely myself. I have also taken care of other’s indoor and stray cats.
About: I grew up around many cats. The orange kitty in my profile picture is Mr. Meowski, he is my baby. I love him more than anything in the world, and would only accept top notch care for him. That’s what I’m here to provide for you! “Purrrfect” care for your fur baby!
About: I’ve adored taking care of especially cats since I was just a little kid! I understand that they’re more likely to have pickier needs that dogs which I am always happy to adapt too! Maintaining a cats area and appearance is very important for them and I am willing to clean litter boxes, cat towers, and even the cat themselves with bathing and fur grooming. Medications are also not a problem, I have tricks to ensure your cat takes or is given proper treatments as needed. All I care about is ensuring you kitty-cat is healthy and happy no matter how friendly or distant they are!
About: I have owned/taken care of dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes. I have cared for animals with special needs, as well as worked on a farm for a few years. I take caring for other animals very seriously. I would love and care for them like they were my own. I am currently working from home and have a very flexible schedule. I can work from anywhere as well as take breaks when need be. Please feel free to call or text me with any questions you may have. I am willing to be flexible with my pricing when it comes to watching more than one dog. I currently do not have a fenced in yard, I hope for this to change sometime in the near future. However, I do live across the street from a park with a walking trail, so am able to take them for long walks multiple times a day. If I am caring for your fur baby at your home, I will make sure to keep the same activities they are used to while you are away.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 9 years old. Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets and small rodents I work from home so your animal will always come first for playtime, walks and feeding time. They will receive all the love I have to offer to them. I have a large backyard so there's enough room for playtime. I have 2 friendly cats who love to play. They love dogs. In my neighborhood there are sidewalks for walks.

My dogs are very friendly with others and welcome new friends and people. I do have an electric fence but am happy to keep dogs on the leash to go outside. I am happy to crate if needed for your dog. I keep extra crates in my home to use.
“Dan and his wife were excellent doggy hosts. They made drop-off and pickup quick and simple. They gave picture updates and were great with communicating. I also loved that my spoiled dog had a couch to nap on. I will book again.”

“She seems to be a wonderful dog sitter, however your company customer service was not the easiest to contact. I tried to cancel my booking de to illness and was unsuccessful.”
About: I couldn’t imagine life without dogs. I’ve grown up with a dog or two my entire life and they are truly family, and treated as so. I’ve cared for my own, in addition to family, friends and neighbors animals as well. I’ve dealt with puppies all the way to senior dogs, giving medications and special care. Our dogs are so loved and so will yours! I’m off all summer long, but during the school year or on the days I do go somewhere, my husband works from home 95% of the time and tends to the dog/pets. We have a newly fenced yard to keep your fur baby safe, with lots of room to run and play. We have a black lab female that will be a great companion and playmate for your pet! We love going on daily walks as well and playing fetch in the back yard.
About: 6/2026 UPDATE: After a long hiatus, I am back to dog sitting. It's a long story but my house burned down and it took years to get back into, a car accident, etc. However, I would like to start sitting other dogs again. I have my own dog, a bullmastiff named Bodi, who turned a year old in May 2026. He's 130+ lbs so far. He's a big big baby. He's very well socialized and goes to the dog park frequently, doesn't guard resources, and loves smaller dogs too. He is very gentle with them. Bodi is not neutered so no females in heat. My mother lives with me and she has a household cat. So, while it's ok for dogs to chase a cat, the cat is dog savvy, I cannot watch any dogs that would wish to do actual harm to the cat. I am especially doing this right now so my dog remains accustomed to new dogs entering his home and welcoming them. I'm home all the time so my schedule is open. My mother also lives with me and she is here all the time as well. I have a small fenced yard. I usually take my dog to the dog park or for a walk, or he has a playdate with the neighbor dog. So, while watching your dog, I would take him/her to the dog Park if that's ok with you, or take them for a walk. I do have a hip issue so I can't promise a lengthy walk every single day no matter what, simply because I do have hip issues. However, i would be able to throw a stick around, etc, to ensure your dog gets enough exercise. My dog Bodi is allowed on the furniture and in my bed and your dog would also be welcome to do so. I do give my dog people food treats. If you do not allow people food, please just let me know and I'll respect your wishes. The last thing I want to say is that my dog is my first priority, being that I'm only willing to watch dogs that get along well with my dog. So, I cannot promise any bookings without meeting you and your dog beforehand. I want dog sitting to be a positive experience for him and I do not want Bodi to be uncomfortable in his own home. 8/23/2019 UPDATE: My dog, Stella, passed away in March from osteosarcoma; but, I can't bring myself to remove her info from my profile yet. So, I'm adding this info as an update. Although I don't think I'm ready to get a new dog myself yet--because I still feel as though getting another dog would be trying to replace the irreplaceable-- I feel ok when around other people's dogs & feel as though I am ready to watch dogs again. In fact, being around dogs more, again, may be exactly what I need first, before getting another dog. All of that being said- despite my profile information & posted pictures, I do not have any dogs in my home so I would be able to watch dogs who may not be good with other dogs. I can watch more than 1 dog at a time, provided they are from the same household; but, I generally don't accept dogs from more than one household at a time. I set that rule/limit because I also had my own dog, so I may be willing to watch two dogs from different households...but, I wouldn't watch another dog from another household unless I had permission from both owners (first & foremost). Furthermore, I still would probably only do so only if I was already familiar with both dogs and/or felt very, very confident that neither dog's presence would negatively effect the other dog's experience. As a final note to owners of multiple dogs: Apparently, my thinking and experience(s) are contrary to Rover and or other Rover sitters in regards to watching two dogs from the same household. In my experience, whenever I have watched more than one dog from the same household, they have been easier to care for, and seem more calm and content. Therefore, instead of charging more for the second dog, my charge is $20 for the second dog. Additionally- I'm not sure what exactly my rate is for extended stays, based on my experience(s), extended-stays become easier and less time-intensive the longer the dog stays. As an example, I never expect to sleep much on the first night a dog stays over, simply because even when they're calm, they tend to wake up more often & obviously feel the need to go outside upon wakening. (However, being able to sleep through the night is an added bonus). So, I am willing to adjust my fees for well-behaved dogs staying longer than 3-4 nights. If and whenever that is the case, feel free to ask me about it, if I don't bring it up myself, during the meet n greet, asked prior to booking anything through the site. ___________________________________________________ Hi! I'm a dog person. As a kid, I grew up in a household with many dogs always coming and going so I am very comfortable with dogs. That being said, large and giant breed dogs hold a special place in my heart, and are my favorite. I am a college-educated professional and very trustworthy, and would be happy to meet in advance of taking care of your dog, in order to ease any concerns you may have about leaving a dog with a stranger. And, I could tell you more about myself over the phone, or in person. I also recognize I am new to Rover, and don't or probably won't have have any reviews or customers for a while, so if there's something I can say or do to ease any concerns you may have, feel free to let me know. I have one pet in my home, an 8-year-old female Bullmastiff named Stella, who is very, very laid back. Although I've known Stella her entire life, she came to live with me during the summer of 2017. She always lived with both male and female dogs of all sizes, and in a household with children, and has never displayed any behavioral issues or aggressive behavior. I think Stella gets a little lonely sometimes so she welcomes canine company. Every once in a while & depending on the personalities involved, the most 'aggression' Stella has ever displayed is a warning growl/light snap if she's eating a bully stick (her favorite), or when lying down in her spot on the sofa. It's an appropriate-level response & not aggressive. Actually, I think the only time she's ever even reacted like that, in any way, has been with dogs of her size or larger/taller than her. Even though I love the large dogs- I think Stella prefers dogs smaller than her. She seems to especially love dogs who nag her to play by running & jumping on and around her. Basically, I think she typically requires that the other dog motivate her to play ? (I think she also likes that she can play with the little dogs without having to do much of the running herself!) All in all, I think there's just a certain instant chemistry between certain dogs that make them immediate friends & good playmates. And, the reason I signed up on Rover is for Stella to have an occasional in-home playmate; however, Stella needs to feel comfortable in her own home, which is my first and foremost priority. Regarding house rules and what your pet may be accustomed to, I will adhere to any rules you set for your dog. Stella is allowed on the bed, and has a designated spot on the sofa. Your dog would be welcome on my furniture, if your dog is accustomed to that. However, I also have two ultra-comfortable dog beds (dimensions of each, 36"x 52"). I have exchanged dog-sitting favors with friends and neighbors and watched other dogs in my home for many years, but do not have any prior "professional" dog-sitting experience. MY HOME'S LAYOUT/SENIOR DOGS For anyone with senior dogs, my home is less than ideal, but can also be manageable for senior dogs. My home has a small fenced rear yard, but is a two-story home with the bedrooms located upstairs. There are also approximately 6-8 steps leading to the fenced yard. If your dog has a problem with the steps leading to the yard, I would be willing & able to walk the dog around the house to/from the yard without encountering the steps. I have hardwood flooring throughout my entire home (as well as ceramic and/or porcelain tile in the bathrooms). The stairs are hardwood floor treads with carpeted treads secured on top of the step. Although my stairs are certainly not the steepest stairs I've ever seen in an old home, they're still a bit more narrow and or steep than would be found in a newer home. Overall, my home may not be the best option for some senior dogs, but steps can be avoided as long as the dog is not accustomed to sleeping in the bedroom at night. That being said- I actually slept downstairs on my living room sofa (which has since been replaced) for 4-5 years when my previous dog was no longer able to climb the stairs. So, I'd probably sleep downstairs if I was watching a dog who couldn't climb the steps. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- P. S. There is a question or checkmark on my Rover profile for me to answer as to whether anyone smokes in the home. The question is a little but unclear, and I marked mine as no smoking in the home. So, I would like to clarify that I am a smoker, but I don't smoke in my home. I'm currently home all the time so I have lots of time to give love and attention. My mother also lives with me so there's two people to get attention from. I have a small fenced in yard, but frequently take my dog for a walk or the dog park, or at least somewhere to get them out of the house on a rainy day (i.e. Bass Pro Shops)
“My pup Samson and I did a meet and greet with Krista a few weeks ago and decide we liked her. He had his first daycare session with her last week and loved it so much he didn’t want to leave. What more could a dog mom ask for?”

“Casey was absolutely amazing! We were in a last-minute pinch while attending Hersheypark and reached out less than an hour before we needed care for our two dogs. Not only did she respond quickly, but she was able to accommodate us on very short notice. She was incredibly friendly, caring, and loving with our dogs, and it gave us complete peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. We are so grateful for her help and would not hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend Casey to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”

“We couldn’t be happier with the amazing care our dog received while we were away on vacation. Lauren went above and beyond to make sure our pup felt loved, comfortable, and well-exercised every single day. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our dog was in such capable and caring hands.

About: Taking care of dogs and cats has been my specialty since I was a child! I have had 8 dogs of all kinds, as well as 10 cats, not including my grandmother’s. My family and neighbors would trust me to feed and water their pets while they were away. I am great at crating puppies and socializing feral/young kittens. It’s always a pleasure to brush or bathe pets depending on their size! I am working a part-time job at Petsmart so my day is already filled with furry faces! But I will still have plenty of days where I can come take care of your puppy or kitty! My schedules are usually two weeks out so I have plenty of notice of when I am free. Contact me of a day when you’d like me to care for your pet and I will let you know the earliest I am available that day! Unfortunately I am not in a position to invite pets into my home… I am figuring out my living situation and will update this section when I have a suitable place for pets to visit!
About: I have had dogs, puppies, and cats all my life. I understand the importance of keeping pets active, well loved, and well taken care of! I work at night, usually from about 3-9pm. Sometimes I work midday, but it’s never more than 5 hours. My work schedule is pretty flexible so I can usually move things around to provide the best care for your pup! I can provide lots of walks, feed them on time, play dates, snuggles, and overall spending time with your fur baby to make them feel comfortable and loved!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years through helping friends, family, and neighbors with feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins.

I supervise pets at all times during visits and outdoor time, and I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being.
“Christy is a gem! My dog saw her coming and was so excited to see her because he knew he was about to get a great walk! From my six-year-old lazy St. Bernard to my one year-old newfi/St. Bernard mix who has enough energy for five puppies, she knows how to handle both of them. The puppy is in training and she’s very good at reinforcing what he’s learning. I am so glad I found her!”
“Ella was reliable and on time. She communicated in a timely manner and she did wonderful on the walk with my pups. The one has anxiety so he only walks so far down the street. So she walked them a few times and even gave me feedback on if they did #1 or 2. I will hire her again in the future.”
About: I have many years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, though I avoid working with overly aggressive dogs. I focus on dogs body language so I can approach them in a way that makes them feel safe. I offer walks, drop ins and playtime, where I bring patience and energy to match your dogs needs and wants.

Respecting animals boundaries while providing them with the love and attention they need is of my highest priority and I particularly focus on making sure your animal feels safe and loved.
About: Hi! I have 5 dogs and 4 parakeets myself, I love to craft or just binge watch movies.

I have a fenced yard so I’m always watching my dogs, I sit outside with them and just watch them play. I also take them on walks when my parents are able to help since we have alot

“Molly was super responsive to my messages. She agreed to walk my Millie with little notice, before even meeting. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring dog-walker.”
About: Hi! I’m Christine, and I’m so happy you’re here! 😊 Animals have always had a special place in my heart, and being a pet sitter is truly something I love. I understand that pets aren’t “just pets” — they’re family — and I treat every dog or cat I care for with the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or quiet and cuddly, I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I love giving lots of affection, going on walks, sticking to routines, and making sure your pet feels relaxed while you’re away. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry friend is happy and in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet and become your trusted go-to sitter! 🐾💕 Dependable and loving sitter experience. I currrently work from home and happy to care for pet in your home or mine. Daily photo/video updates. Cleaning food bowls and basic pet mess clean up. Plenty of attention, affection, and supervision I have a fenced in yard and two golden doodles who love to play. Skilled in maintaining a clean, safe environment. Reliable and attentive caregiver.
About: I have owned/taken care of dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes. I have cared for animals with special needs, as well as worked on a farm for a few years. I take caring for other animals very seriously. I would love and care for them like they were my own. I am currently working from home and have a very flexible schedule. I can work from anywhere as well as take breaks when need be. Please feel free to call or text me with any questions you may have. I am willing to be flexible with my pricing when it comes to watching more than one dog. I currently do not have a fenced in yard, I hope for this to change sometime in the near future. However, I do live across the street from a park with a walking trail, so am able to take them for long walks multiple times a day. If I am caring for your fur baby at your home, I will make sure to keep the same activities they are used to while you are away.
