Personalized care for your dog or cat - Lima
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Lima
“Pico's over night stay with Emily & Christine couldn't have gone better. They gave us the option for a meet and greet which was super helpful to ease our minds about leaving our fur baby. They were communicative before and during his stay. We could tell from the pictures he had a blast. He made friends with Lilo, their pup, and their kiddos, and it sounds like he even got along nicely with their cat. The ultimate complement is that Pico was clearly sad to come home from his sleepover - just like our human kids after hanging out with one of their besties. We will 100% hire Emily & Christine again and sing their praises to everyone we know. Thank you!”
“My go-to sitter. My pup always has a great time hanging out with Sirius and Billie. Trey keeps me up-to-date and sends me pics and videos to show all the fun she’s having and put my mind at ease. Would absolutely recommend as a caring place to send their pup.”
“Juliana is one word..AMAZING!!! I have used rover many of times and have never felt like I found my person until I met Juliana. She says has not been doing this rover thing for long but it sure seems like it. I felt comfortable leaving my dog with her overnight. He came back to me the same way i left him. She responds quickly and also sent me plenty of pictures. I am for sure booking with her in the very near future. Thank you Juliana for keeping Melo safe.”
“All the hype about Dante is true! He’s communicative, accommodating, and really great energy. He asks a lot of questions to ensure my Kado was well taken care of. Dante is someone who truly loves what he does and that makes me happy. I think Kado and I found a permanent sitter until Dante retires us lol”
“Loved her! She kept me up to date daily with a photo, video, or comments regarding my dog, Sadie. She was attentive to any concerns I had in the beginning as my dog has food allergies, and she assured me she would follow my instructions regarding her care completely. I will be using her again!”
“The absolute best rover! Extremely communicative and we knew our dog was in great hands entire stay. We appreciate the attention to Myla! We also felt very comfortable leaving Myla in Kate's hands during thunderstorms (which she is scared of) due to Kate's previous experience, and Myla did great. Thanks so much. 10/10 !”
“We had a terrific experience boarding our dog with Aaron. He was a great communicator, asking good questions about our dog when they met, and then quick and efficient with texts while we were away. He also offered insights into our dog that will be very helpful now that we have him back. Our dog was clearly well cared for and enjoyed his stay, going on car rides, which he loves, and getting special treats and plenty of attention, as well as enjoying a large space to run around in their fenced back yard. We will certainly board again with Aaron next time we need it.”
“Alex and her family were very welcoming. I like that they did a meet and greet just to ensure that my dog would be a good fit for them to take care of. My dog was very excited to be with them and they took great care of him. I received updates and pictures during his stay. I am grateful to them to be able to enjoy my vacation and know that my precious Goose was in great hands. I am appreciative and grateful for such wonderful service.”
“Patty was extremely thoughtful and sweet to my senior dog for a week stay. I didn't have to worry at all, and he came back nice and tired and happy. He even made a doggie friend during his stay! Plus, she sent me some really great photos of him.”
“Great place for dogs to spend the night. Laura knows a lot about dogs and follow all the instructions for my dog. We will definitely be rebooking her services in the future!”
“First-time Rover user here, and I was definitely a bit anxious going in but I didn’t need to be. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. I highly recommend Andres. He’s easygoing, clearly great with dogs, and made the whole experience stress-free. My rescue chihuahua mix can be a little temperamental, especially around men, but Andres handled him without any issues. I also really appreciated the daily photo updates and quick check-ins—it gave me peace of mind knowing how my pup was doing. Overall, a really positive experience. Thanks again, Andres!”
“Ian was fantastic! Our two dogs spent a week and half with Ian in his lovely home. We were able to relax and have peace of mind they were in good care. Ian periodically sent photos to document their time and was forthcoming with any challenges. We really appreciate his attention, time, and compassion with our pups.”
“Sherry was very communicative, accommodating for an energetic puppy, and went above & beyond with treats! Mila was treated like the princess she is. I appreciated the transparency and patience she provided. I would leave her with Mila again in a heartbeat (and will again soon!).”
“Rachel took amazing care our dog! He's a little, old dog with various issues and she made sure he was comfortable and happy. We look forward to booking with Rachel again soon.”
“Our experience with Andreah was wonderful! She is calm and caring, and clearly loves dogs. Best of all, our Maltipoo appears to have enjoyed himself with Andreah and her family. Andreah provided just the right amount of updates and photos, making it a smooth experience for us as well. I would happily book with Andreah again when she is available.”
“She took such great care of my dog! He hates to be alone and I was so grateful to have someone that he could spend the day with, and he didn't have any issues with separation anxiety. I would absolutely recommend her!”

“Anne Marie took care of my senior cat Salem. She sent daily updates on how she ate and had daily sightings of my shy kitty. By the end of Anne Marie’s visits with Salem she actually poked her head out to see Anne Marie which showed that there was trust built!! Anne Marie is a conscientious person whose kind nature makes her perfect for caring for my precious kitty!! I am grateful to have found her!!”
“I am so happy to have found Caroline as my cat’s sitter! We went on vacation for a week and this was the first time we left him behind. Our orange boy Jonesy is very social and thrives on attention so it made me very nervous to leave him alone for this long. Caroline went ABOVE & BEYOND for Jonesy and my pet rats when we were away. She is punctual, detail oriented, communicative & I can tell that she loves spending time with them! Not only did she do everything to care for him, but she hung out and played with him. I could tell that he was happy & comfortable. I always got an update on everyone after every visit and seeing photos of everyone happily eating and just being content really made me feel so confident that my little ones are in good hands. Caroline is an excellent sitter because it is apparent that she loves your pet too! Thank you so much and Jonesy cannot wait to see you again!😸❤️”
“Kristen was outstanding! She took such amazing care of our cat Mr. Bunny Ears for the month we were so far away in Alaska! He is usually pretty nervous with new people and he came around for her with ease. She sent great pics and videos too. She also helped out with little extras too since he was staying with my elder mother. I recommend her very highly! If I could give 10 stars I would. Thank you for everything Kristen!”
“Carol is amazing! Rocky absolutely loves her and gave up her belly upon meeting her for the first time. She communicated with me multiple times every day, sent lots of pictures and gave Rocky her steroid pill, which isn't always easy. She made me feel so at peace while I was away. I came home to an immaculate house, as well. We really couldn't be any happier!!!”
“Nicole takes her job seriously! She did a wonderful job caring for our 2 kitties! She was very dependable. She was warm & caring to our cats. Sending us pictures of our cats interacting with her made us feel at ease while being away from them! I highly recommend Nicole!!”
“Laura receives A+ !!!!!!!! I am extremely pleased!!!! Will definitely book with Laura again. I will certainly recommend to family and friends 🧡 Very grateful for the care my "ginger bky" received”
About: I have had family dogs my entire life as well as walked my neighbors dogs for them while I was growing up. Over the last 4 years I provided hospice care to one adopted dog, and adopted a second puppy afterwards. I am prepared for any level of training or behavior from your pup, being that I am working through training for my own dog. I am comfortable with small and large dogs! I can come care for your pup after my work day and I am back in the area. I am home by 5:00 every day. On weekends my availability fully opens up with two day notice. In the summer, I have completely open availability for you and your dog! Due to my own dog being reactive I must come to you for visits and can not bring your pup to my home. I am happy to come care for your dog at your house or take them on long walks or to a local park!
“Tori was awesome! She took great care of my cats during the drop-in visits and kept me updated with photos and notes. Everything was clean and my cats were happy as could be when I got home. Highly recommend!”
“Eleanor did an amazing job taking care of our cat Jax that is facing kidney issues. Jax requires multiple oral medicines as well as an IV injection daily, neither of which he is a fan of, but Eleanor was able to swaddle him, administer his medicines, and make it as painless as possible. Would definitely recommend.”
“My pups enjoy their daily visits from Chen for a midday exercise and potty breaks! This dog mom is happy as well knowing that they are being cared for and getting belly rubs even when I’m not there. Chen makes sure to send me updates with a cute pic and some notes on how the visit went! Thank you Chen, we couldn’t be more pleased with your services!”
About: Dogs and cats have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. As a dog/ cat owner myself (2 dogs 2 cats), I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I’m patient, attentive, and experienced with different personalities, from young kittens to senior cats I have experience with all. I’ll make sure your cat gets lots of love, attention, and care, and I’ll keep you updated always so you can feel confident while you’re away.
“Very good experience with Liz! She was quick to respond and helped us a lot throughout the entire trip. I usually feel worried about our pets while gone for so long, but Liz made us feel good about them being cared for.”
About: As a lifelong animal person, I’ve provided dependable care for many dogs of friends and family over the past several years. My experience includes walking, feeding, administering lots of love, and opening my home for safe and comfortable stays. I work part-time Monday through Thursday, so I can provide care in the mornings and evenings, with a few hours away mid-day for work. I’m fully available Friday through Sunday for all-day care and walks. I have a fenced-in backyard and a pool for dogs who love to swim. Your pup will also have a built-in playmate with my dog who is very friendly. Plus, I’m right next to walking trails that are perfect for daily walks.
“Amanda did an excellent job watching our kitties. She is highly dependable, flexible and does a thorough job. I would definitely love to have her watch our cats in the future.”
“Breanna has been nothing but great with our little girl, McKinley, a calico cat. Sends detailed information for each visit with pics & sometimes a video. She’s moving from our area so I’ll have to find someone else as caring as her. Highly recommend”
“Super communicative and very sweet to talk with!! Updated daily with pictures and made effort to engage with both of my cats! My cats seemed comfortable with her and I will definitely utilize her again.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Lima
“My pup had a great day with Emily and Christine. They have a nice fenced yard, perfect for dog play. They treated her like one of their own and she came home tired and happy.”
“Jason is amazing! Our pup Lucy is very shy around both people and dogs and Jason has provided the perfect combination of comfort and fun for her to come out of her shell more. His dog Ava is playful, sweet and well trained. Jason communicates well and sends pictures/videos throughout the day. Highly recommend Jason! Your dog will be happy and well cared for.”
“Dante was Great. This was Bubba's first time being babysat by someone that him and I didn't know. Dante kept me updated on Bubba's progress throughout the day which gave me relief because I was just as nervous as Bub. He's very pleasant, excellent in communication, and l can tell that he genuinely love dogs.”

About: I grew up having pets since I was born, including dogs, turtles, hamsters, guinea pigs and others. My daughters and I have taken care of our neighbors and friends dogs, and we have experience interacting with cats from my brothers and friends. We have only guinea pigs now, but my daughters are longing for any dog-sitting especially, so we have plenty of space, love and affection to spare, if needed. I am a teacher with my summers off. My daughters are in camps periodically, but we are largely staying local throughout the rest of the summer, and I have a number of house projects that will keep me based at home for most days. I have a pet-friendly townhouse community that I live in. Safe, slow-moving cars, dog-walking areas with doggie bag stations, coupled with open grassy areas, and conveniently located near several close-by parks and even a dog park 10 minutes way. Other dogs are leashed in the community. If needed, your dog can be kept in our finished basement, with plenty of space to move around. In your home, if you prefer to have the dog walked nearby and/or caged at night, that will not be a problem.
About: I’ve had rescue dogs since I was a child. I get a lot of joy out of fostering dogs and helping them find their furever home. I also grew up with cats and love a sassy attitude. Looking to soak up some good pet energy this summer! I’m not working this summer, so I’m home all day and ready to entertain your pet. I love taking walks so your dog will get at least two walks per day. I spend a lot of time in the pool, so your pet can enjoy the yard as much as they want. Enrichment toys, watching birds and squirrels, naps in the sun, the occasional pup cup, games of fetch, and zoomies galore. I have a big, fenced in yard. I’m happy to crate your dog if that’s what they prefer. Willing to accommodate. Will reward with Puperoni!

Services Offered: Dog Walking Drop-In Visits Boarding House Sitting Medication administration (including injections) Special care upon request, such as diapering, assisted feeding, and cleansing With over 25 years of experience as a pet owner and caregiver, I have cared for animals with allergies, cardiac and pulmonary disease, heart failure, dementia, and incontinence. I am attentive, patient, and comfortable managing complex care needs. Caring for animals is both a blessing and a privilege. I pour my heart into every pet I care for and treat each one as if they were my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a secure, calm home environment where pets are closely supervised at all times and treated like family. My boarding services include regular neighborhood walks and park visits, always conducted safely using secure leashes, pet-appropriate gear, and routes suited to your pet’s needs and energy level. Playtime is structured, supervised, and balanced with plenty of rest, affection, and cuddling. I strictly follow each pet owner’s feeding instructions, schedules, and care preferences to maintain consistency and reduce stress. I am experienced in administering medications, including oral medications and injections/shots, and I do so carefully and confidently according to your veterinarian’s guidance.

About: I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and relaxed when they’re away from home, so I focus on creating a calm, comfortable, and warm environment tailored to each dog’s personality and routine.

Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I work from home and can be present with your pup throughout the day. I’m able to step away at any time for walks, potty breaks, play, or cuddles, so pets get consistent attention and companionship — not long stretches alone. I build my day around their needs, making sure they feel supported, relaxed, and loved from morning to night. I have a fully fenced-in yard, giving pups a safe space to explore, play, and enjoy fresh air throughout the day. I stay attentive to each pet’s comfort level and personality, whether they need active play, quiet cuddles, or time to settle in at their own pace. My goal is to make their experience relaxed, happy, and as close to home as possible.

“Chen has been a blessing! I was looking for a reliable dog walker for a while. Chen is great with my two large labradoodles who have a tendency to pull from time to time. She is always punctual and communicative when the schedule needs to change. I appreciate that she always sends pictures and updates of how the pups are doing and keeps me posted of their shenanigans like when they got into their wet food the other day. She even cleaned it up and put the food away for me. If you are looking for someone to take care of your pups I highly recommend Chen! She is great!”
“Carol is wonderful with my puppy , Winter. Each time she goes to walk her she sends pics and a detailed paragraph as to what Winter did . I truly appreciate all the care and love she gives her !”

“When I was injured and unable to walk my dog, Luna, Matthew was an absolute lifesaver. He showed up every single day; rain or shine; right on time, without fail. His reliability and dedication gave me such peace of mind during a challenging time. Not only was he dependable, but Luna absolutely adores him. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the dogs he walks. Matthew’s consistency, kindness, and professionalism have been an essential part of both my recovery and Luna’s happiness. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog walker.”
“Anne Marie is simply the best! Our GSP Cooper is so comfortable with her and I can see why from our initial meet and greet. She is very sweet and is truly a dog lover. So happy to have found her. When we come home from a long day at work, Cooper is at ease and happy because of his mid-day walk. If you are looking for a trustworthy dog lover to walk your fur baby, Anne Marie is the one. Thank you Anne Marie!”
“Angela is such a wonderful and trustworthy person. It’s so comforting to know that our elder doggie Ginger is being so well taken care of. We had last minute plans and Angela was able to take Ginger for a walk to her favorite park and provided great pictures! We highly recommend Angela - my go to Ginger sitter!”

I treat every dog like they’re my own and always prioritize their comfort and happiness. I'm currently completely my Master's degree but I am free Wednesday, Thursdays, Fridays, and weekends so I can still dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for!

I have studied as a vet tech student for 2 years and am able to perform both CPR and the Heimlich Maneuver. I am currently working full time as a dog trainer and pet sitter so I have a very open schedule. Let’s chat and I can figure out what works for us both! I loving taking my 3 dogs on walks and to the park and it’s part of my daily routine. I do a lot of training exercises throughout the day as well as plenty of playing (if you have a golden retriever you understand!)

At the clients home, I will follow whatever their schedule is to help them adjust to their absence.

I make my own schedule biweekly, and my shifts are generally no more than 5-6 hours, so my hours are extremely flexible depending on when I’m needed! I am all for play, walking, and unlimited pets when I dog/cat sit. I will pay careful attention when it comes to letting them out if there is a fenced yard, as well as to their collar and leash prior to taking them out on walks. A pet owners directions are very important to me as far as feeding/potty/medication times, and I take the responsibility of caring for any animal very seriously.

“My go-to sitter. My pup always has a great time hanging out with Sirius and Billie. Trey keeps me up-to-date and sends me pics and videos to show all the fun she’s having and put my mind at ease. Would absolutely recommend as a caring place to send their pup.”
“All the hype about Dante is true! He’s communicative, accommodating, and really great energy. He asks a lot of questions to ensure my Kado was well taken care of. Dante is someone who truly loves what he does and that makes me happy. I think Kado and I found a permanent sitter until Dante retires us lol”
“Loved her! She kept me up to date daily with a photo, video, or comments regarding my dog, Sadie. She was attentive to any concerns I had in the beginning as my dog has food allergies, and she assured me she would follow my instructions regarding her care completely. I will be using her again!”
“The absolute best rover! Extremely communicative and we knew our dog was in great hands entire stay. We appreciate the attention to Myla! We also felt very comfortable leaving Myla in Kate's hands during thunderstorms (which she is scared of) due to Kate's previous experience, and Myla did great. Thanks so much. 10/10 !”
“We had a terrific experience boarding our dog with Aaron. He was a great communicator, asking good questions about our dog when they met, and then quick and efficient with texts while we were away. He also offered insights into our dog that will be very helpful now that we have him back. Our dog was clearly well cared for and enjoyed his stay, going on car rides, which he loves, and getting special treats and plenty of attention, as well as enjoying a large space to run around in their fenced back yard. We will certainly board again with Aaron next time we need it.”
“Great place for dogs to spend the night. Laura knows a lot about dogs and follow all the instructions for my dog. We will definitely be rebooking her services in the future!”
“First-time Rover user here, and I was definitely a bit anxious going in but I didn’t need to be. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. I highly recommend Andres. He’s easygoing, clearly great with dogs, and made the whole experience stress-free. My rescue chihuahua mix can be a little temperamental, especially around men, but Andres handled him without any issues. I also really appreciated the daily photo updates and quick check-ins—it gave me peace of mind knowing how my pup was doing. Overall, a really positive experience. Thanks again, Andres!”
“Ian was fantastic! Our two dogs spent a week and half with Ian in his lovely home. We were able to relax and have peace of mind they were in good care. Ian periodically sent photos to document their time and was forthcoming with any challenges. We really appreciate his attention, time, and compassion with our pups.”
“She took such great care of my dog! He hates to be alone and I was so grateful to have someone that he could spend the day with, and he didn't have any issues with separation anxiety. I would absolutely recommend her!”
“Carismeldi watched my pup Prada from Friday to Sunday and she was great. She kept me in the loop with pics and updates throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Prada looked happy, comfortable, and totally at ease the whole time. She was easy to communicate with, super sweet, and you can tell she genuinely cares. I’d definitely book with her again and recommend her to anyone needing a solid sitter.”
“This was the first time we used Rover to board our boy Frankie, so I didn’t know what exactly to expect. Michell was very responsive via text, provided ample status photos of our dogs stay. This put me at ease and made me feel comfortable leaving Frankie with him. It was also a trial run to see how Frankie would do overnight at someone else’s house. He did great, Michell and Tiago took great care and we will be using them again for future longer stays! I highly recommend!”
About: i have tow dogs anywhere in Home they can comfortable sleep. And dog door to the yard for freedom. This is the resort for them. Luxury Home-1 acre fenced backyard just for dog!! Style Dog Boarding With a Large Fenced Yard I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years, and my home has always been a place where dogs are treated like family — not just pets!!! I I’ve been a dog owner and animal lover for over 20 years, and caring for dogs has always been a big part of my daily life. Friends and family have trusted me with their pets for many years because they know their dogs will be safe, comfortable, and treated like family in my home. I provide a calm, low-stress home environment with a large fenced yard where dogs can safely play, relax, and enjoy plenty of outdoor time. Since I’m home most of the time, dogs receive lots of supervision, companionship, affection, and personalized care throughout the day. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, including senior dogs and dogs who may feel anxious in traditional boarding environments. My goal is simple: to give your dog a safe, loving, and comfortable home while you’re away.
“Carrie and Jon were so caring and responsive! They replied quickly and sent daily updates with photos. They were extra accommodating when our flights got cancelled and we had to extend the booking as well as pick him up late due to travel delays. Would definitely book them again and recommend to anyone!!”
