“Phenomenal dog sitter. I boarded my two dogs with Jeffrey for Christmas week. He provided updates and pictures each day in a consistent and clear manner. He took great care of my dogs, and my dogs always have fun with Jeffrey's dog, Lily. I will continue to hire Jeffrey as my main dog sitter for as long as possible.”
“Roseann was great! She picked up our dog at the house and sent us lots of pics and communication! She waited to introduce our dog to hers and it went really well. Bonus was having Roseanne’s sons to play with our dog, just like our dog’s 2 brothers :-) It is great to have our dog in a loving home and not in a sterile kennel!!”
“This was Cooper's 2nd time with Kathleen. He seemed very comfortable when I dropped him off and when I picked him up. The photos and video of him showed how comfortable he was there. I really enjoy seeing the photos during his stay.”
“Gabby and her family are amazing! Our dog Lola was so relaxed and happy to spend over a week there. Even in the photos we could see how happy she was. Gabby sent us a great update every day, took Lola on lots of walks, and asked a lot of questions about how best to care for her.”
“We feel so very fortunate to have had Joe and his wife Bonnie care for our 13 year old Westie, Ozzy, for 9 days. They sent updates and pictures and made us feel comfortable and confident that Oz was in great hands during this extended stay. They are true dog lovers and our sweet Oz had a very nice stay with them. Thanks so much Joe and Bonnie!”
“Heather is an excellent pet sitter! Our little senior dog, Miki, stayed with her for a week while we were on vacation. Heather responded to all messages very promptly and is a great communicator. She followed all instructions to the letter and kept us updated on how our little boy was doing. At one point, Miki seemed to be feeling under the weather. Heather calmly shared her concerns and we were able to talk through a solution together. When we picked Miki up, he was happy and comfortable in Heather’s home. I would recommend Heather without hesitation!”
“This was my first time boarding my 11 month old puppy. They were wonderful with her, she enjoyed herself and they frequently sent pictures of her so I wouldn’t be worried.”

“Isaiah is such a blessing. Isaiah was quick and easy to communicate with. (ProTip: message from the Rover app directly, not the SMS text that you get from Rover.) Isaiah quickly made a plan to come over and meet my 3 Maine Coon Cats. He asked all of the right questions, things I didn't even think of. We made a plan for next month, but when a last minute weekend trip came up, Isaiah was right there for us. He sent Great Pics of our kitties and I could tell they were very comfortable with him. When we've left the kitties all alone for 48 hours once before, it took days for them to relax into their regular personalities after we returned. Not the case when Isaiah cared for them. They were chill and happy, as usual. I know that he cared for them and gave them lots of pets and brushes. Isaiah is a Top Notch and Trustworthy Caregiver.”
“Cathy was all I could have hoped for in a caregiver for my sweet kitty. She was loving and followed my directions carefully. Philly was happy to see me when I got home, but calm and content. She had eaten her normal amount of food and Cathy sent pics of Philly playing! The pics were very reassuring. Thank you Cathy.”
“Amanda took great care of our cats. She not only reliably fed them on time, she played with them also. She clearly gave them the attention they needed, as they weren't clingy as they usually are when we got home.”
“Lucy was great! Our super shy kitties who never come out for anyone, made multiple appearances for Lucy! She was very responsive and took plenty of photos for us while we were gone. Will definitely be going with Lucy again!”
“Thank you for taking such excellent care of my kitties and fish while we were away from home. The cats were very happy and healthy when we got home and it's because you took excellent care of them.”
“Rebecca was a great new friend and took great care of our little buddy. Very attentive and caring. I very highly recommend her, and will definitely book her again!”
“Brooke and Matthew did a great job of making my cate Taz comfortable and at ease as he usually hides with strangers. They went the extra mile giving him his insulin shot and eye drops as well. I would recommend them and will definitely use their services again in the future.”
“Rachel was great! She was on time each day and really helped me out when I wasn’t able to handle some of the cat chores myself. She’s very polite and has a great personality. We would absolutely have her care for our cat again and would recommend her to others!”
“Lee did so well the cry shy kitties came out to greet her and get affection. The food and water were done appropriately and he 2 cat boxes weee clean. Hank u Lee for taking such loving care of our kitties and contacting m the very day to report on them.”
“Rosemary was awesome. I would definitely recommend her to my friends and family. My little fur baby is very shy and Rosrmary was very patient. My cat even let her pet on her forehead which never happened before. Rosemary definitely made her comfortable during the visits.”
“I had a great experience with Katie, malinky was very comfortable to comfortable since he didn’t wanna leave. Katie daily informed me about his routine and sent me pictures and videos. Love it and thank you so so much Katie.”

“Roseanna was wonderful! She and her kids took Ozzie to the park and it sounds like he had a lot of attention through the day. Communication was easy and straightforward. This was our first experience with doggy daycare, and we will definitely have Ozzie stay with Roseanna again!”
“Veronica saved us after a last-minute pet sitting cancellation had us in a bind. She was so quick with getting back to us and taking the boys for the day. Her communication throughout their stay with her was wonderful, and we are so grateful for her excellent care of our two goofy big dogs. Would absolutely bring them back for another visit! Thank you!”

Lovely warm home with a large backyard and two of the sweetest animal lovers, giving you total assurance your fur baby will be loved and cared for just like at home. We've only tried daycare so far to get him use to them but I can tell he loves them already. Looking forward to boarding him there soon as I know he will be safe and happy and cared for with lots of cuddles and treats.”
“Hillary was fantastic with Tux. She sent me periodic updates on his well-being along with pictures which helped me manage my stress which occurred due to the emergency nature of my booking. But my day was fantastic and I picked up a very happy dog that afternoon. Thank you Hillary!”

If you are looking for a kind, responsible sitter to give your dog the love they deserve, I'm perfect for the job! I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits in your home. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and provide reliable, loving care while you’re away!

During walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection.

“We’re so happy we found Rachel. We just got a puppy and really needed help during the work week to let him and our other dog out. She was very professional, friendly and took to our dogs right away. She leaves prompt info on the walk and replies right away with any scheduling needs. Highy recommend her services!”
“Brooke & Matt recently provided some dog walking services for our highly energetic dog Max. As a dog owner who has used Rover many times in the past, I know it's always a concern leaving your dog with someone new. It was obvious from our first meeting that Brooke & Matt are two very responsible animal lovers who provide excellent care for the animals they are looking after. They even took Max for a run to help him burn off some excess energy, which he loved!! Your pets will be in very good hands if you decide to use Brooke & Matt for your pet care needs.”
About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and hamsters. I’ve cared for my own dog for 12 years and have been pet sitting for friends, family, and others for the past couple of years. I’ve trained my dog to do many tricks and am comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, bathing, and administering oral medication. I treat every pet like family and want them to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I am a college student who is applying to allied health science programs. In the meantime my schedule is flexible, and I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits and will work around your pet’s normal routine and needs. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine while caring for them in their home. I follow your instructions carefully, keep pets supervised, and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care.
“Banana and I love Rosemary! He fell instantly for her on their first meet. Rosemary was attentive, patient, and most importantly, fun. We scheduled a meet n greet before his official dog walking day. Banana is still a young pup so he is still trying to do his best, but Rosemary did amazing for his first walk. I am so happy that he had Rosemary as his first dog walker. Definitely going to reach out in the future for him!”
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life, from pitbulls I trained since childhood to bunnies, cats, turtles, and frogs. I’ve also rescued strays, volunteered at shelters, and love spending time with farm animals like goats. These experiences have given me a deep respect for all creatures and the importance of meeting each pet’s unique needs. With lifelong, hands-on experience, I understand the value of consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement when caring for animals. I have experience training puppies, supporting senior pets, and providing dependable, loving care in every situation. My commitment is to treat every animal as family, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved in my care. My availability is best on weekends. I’m available Friday evenings and open all day Saturday and Sunday. If you like my services, I am open to a consistent schedule during the other week days which can be further discussed. A week’s notice is greatly appreciated so I can provide the best care possible for your pets. In my home, I currently have a bunny who enjoys his own spacious setup. When I am home, he is free to roam safely, and when I am away, he remains secure in his enclosure. For client care, I adapt to each pet’s environment and routine. At one home, there is a fenced-in backyard where the dogs can run and play freely. At another, the dogs enjoy daily evening walks and are trained to go outside in the open backyard in the mornings. I always prioritize safety, supervision, and consistency, making sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and loved in their environment.
About: Hi there! I have 4 years of experience caring for my own sweet Maltipoo, plus two senior Chihuahuas (13 and 9 years old) in my family. I’m confident working with dogs of all ages and temperaments—whether they’re energetic or need extra patience. I provide loving, attentive care and treat every dog like family💛. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities! I work full-time on Rover, so I’m very responsive and usually reply within 5 minutes❣️. I’m available every day, including weekdays, weekends, and holidays. Early mornings, afternoons, and evenings all work for me—I’m flexible and happy to accommodate your pet’s routine.

I ensure pets have plenty of playtime, relaxing moments, and space to feel comfortable. I’m very attentive to their needs—whether it’s feeding, potty breaks, or giving extra love. Your dog will be treated like family, with all the attention and care they deserve.
“Katherine was so good with our dog Fergus! She gave such good details on his behavior and how he did on his walks. Being a puppy still in training, it was good for us to know how he did while we were away from him and had Katherine walk him for a few days. She really went above and beyond our expectations by cleaning up a mess that our dog caused after eating a couple books while we were away! Thanks Katherine!”
“While Melanie was walking my small dog, a large dog escaped its fence and attacked both Melanie and my dog. Melanie, unconcerned for herself, picked up my dog and fended off the large dog sustaining bites herself. She handled the situation very professionally and made sure my dog was safe and secure before getting medical treatment herself. I will forever be grateful to her and would recommend her services to anyone who wants a dog walker who goes above and beyond.”
