“Jean did an absolutely wonderful job in caring for our 13 year old Puggle. She sent updates and pictures during his overnight stay. Her home is VERY clean and completely set up for dog boarding. She’s not only knowledgeable about dog care but truly showed an interest in making sure our dog was comfortable and well taken care of. I wouldn’t hesitate to request boarding with Jean in the future.”
“Mayra and her husband was so warm welcoming! They let me know where Milo would be playing and hanging out. Which left me at easy leaving my baby boy. As well Mayra loves playing little games with the doggies she sent me a video of my Milo playing the game and doing so well! She shared pictures as well and always communicated with me when i would ask about Milo. Milo came back so happy ❤️ I would definitely book again with Mayra! Thank you so much!”
“This is the first time we have had to leave our fur baby with someone other than family. Tristan was agreeable to a meet and greet to make sure we would feel comfortable with the arrangement. We received pictures during her stay with Tristan that put us at ease, knowing our fur baby was content and well cared for. Thank you, Tristan and Jen, for taking such good care of Zoey!”
“Carole was great with my dog Brady for the week he was with her. Brady seemed to have a lot of fun and activity while he was at Carole’s place. I received updates and cute pictures throughout the week. She also was able to administer his medication to him without issue during the week. Overall I felt good know Carole was watching after my dog!”
“Johanny did a wonderful job caring for our Honey while we were on vacation. When we brought her there, her home was welcoming and set up to care for our dog. We received photos and videos. When we came to pick her up, she was shampooed, and even had a little bow in her hair. I would definitely leave our dog in her care again and highly would recommend her.”
“I have never met a dog sitter as kind, loving, wise, and experienced in providing the very best care for dogs as Yoko. She treats people with the same warmth and kindness as well. Her husband is also a truly wonderful person. They took care of our elderly dog, and when his condition suddenly worsened, they gave him the most attentive and compassionate care without ever sparing their time or effort. From the bottom of our hearts, we are so grateful that we entrusted our beloved dog to Yoko. Yoko and your husband, thank you so very much.”

My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved spending time with them. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Reshma & Kangan take care of my cavapoo, as if she were their own dog. Walks twice a day and invitations to the couch. Lots of pictures too. Rosa has been there many times and loves it. It gives me such peace of mind that when we do go somewhere the dog can't, they are there or her.”
“Tiffany has a gorgeous fenced property that our pups loved to explore. She was welcoming and accommodating. She let us know when our dogs were settled and sent us pictures to know that they were happy and having fun. Asking anyone to watch two pups is a lot but she took on our two without hesitation. Our mini golden doodle can be cranky at times but she made sure he was comfortable And had the space he needed to feel just at home. We will definitely use her again the next time we are in need of a sitter.”

“Amanda made sure our cat Archie was well taken care of while away and even watered our outside flowers. We appreciate you and will definitely reach out to you on our next getaway!!”
“We've been so lucky to have found Brenna! Our fur babies genuinely light up when they see her, which tells us everything we need to know. It's such a relief to leave our pets in the hands of someone we truly trust — she treats them so special. If you're searching for someone special to care for your furry family members, we couldn't recommend Brenna more wholeheartedly. She's truly one of a kind! 🐾”
About: I have 3 years of experience caring for dogs, including walks, playtime, and overnight stays in their home. I treat every pet like part of my family and make sure they’re happy, safe, and comfortable. Caring for pets is part of my weekly routine—I enjoy morning walks, playtime, and cuddles with dogs of all sizes. Making sure they get attention, exercise, and love is something I look forward to every day. I care for pets in their own home, keeping their routines consistent with walks, playtime, meals, and lots of attention. I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away.
“Amelia took great care of our kitties. Our shy girl warmed right up to her! She even helped us with a last minute change of plans. I highly recommend using her for your pet care needs!”

“David's love of cats is genuine, and it showed in the exceptional care that he provided for my kitties. He's thoughtful, reliable, and trustworthy. I definitely will request his services again!”

“Camden was very caring and conscientious about taking care of our six cats, while we were away for six days. He took pictures and gave status reports, and even took in my mail. He has familiarity with many different kinds of animals, and we trusted him in our home 100%!”
“Alyssa was very good with our Old English Sheepdogs. They are big dogs and she handled them very well. We will definitely use Alyssa again she deserves every bit of the 5 star rating.”

“Sophia was very flexible and communicative through the whole process! She was a great sitter for my hyperactive cat, and always gave me detailed notes with a photo attached for her drop-ins. She went above and beyond to care for my cat, and is a very caring individual!”
“Skylar did a fantastic job taking care of my two cats while I was away for 2 weeks on business. My cats warmed up to her quickly. The care was complicated by some medical issues with my cats, and the fact that I had just recently moved to a new place, but she handled everything fantastically and kept the cats happy and healthy”
About: I grew up with and have owned dogs and cats my whole life. I’d love to care for your pets as I would my own! I understand the importance of a reliable, quality pet sitter because I use Rover frequently myself for my dogs, who require extra care. I have three dogs of my own: • Riley – a 12-year-old Beagle (I help manage her lymphoma medication) • Penelope – an 8-year-old Aussie mix (I cared for her after recent knee surgery) • Nyx – a 3-year-old Border Collie mix (I help manage his separation anxiety) I work full time during the week , but am available on the weekends for drop in visits and walks. Day of requests are welcome! I may be available for some weekday drop ins after 5pm if you live near by , so feel free to message me! I am happy to care for your pets as instructed. I am certified in Cat and Dog first aid, and have experience administering medication if needed.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Lyons
“Best dog sitting experience we have had! Our dog has separation anxiety, but you would never have known it! He took to Jeanne and her crew like he knew then forever. When I picked him up at the end of the day he was as happy as can be and did not stop wagging his tail. Jeanne made me feel at ease from the moment I met her. Thank you so much and we will certainly use Jeanne and her gang again!”
“We can not say enough about how wonderful Jean is and such a caring person. Our Bella had such a great day with Jean and little Muffin. We will definitely be using Jean in the future when we need a dog sitter for Bella.”
“Mia was a good sitter for my little Luna . We will definitely consider leaving her with Mia . She kept us informed the whole time we were away for vacation. She sent me pictures. Thank you Mia for taking care of our baby girl.”
About: I love dogs of all ages and breeds! I enjoy caring for, cuddling with and playing with dogs in my home and fenced in backyard. While in my care, your dog's safety and well-being is my priority. Your pet will have lots of play time in my fenced in backyard. I am available to provide specific dietary and care needs. I will do my best to make your fur baby feel "at home". I look forward to meeting them. Feel free to drop them off with a favorite blanket, toy, snack, or bed. As a stay at home mom and dog owner, I am available to provide plenty of outside time, meet specific requests and care needs for your dog. While outside, your dog will be free to roam outside in my fenced in yard. While indoors, your dog will be free to get cozy on the couch.

“Lisa was great caring for my senior dog, Leroy. She provided updates throughout the day with pictures. She was understanding of his health conditions. We did a meet and great with her dogs before our actual visit to make sure our dogs got along. I will definitely use Lisa again when in the area next year.”
“Mike was really great with our pup! Our 8-month-old is still getting used to going to daycare, but Mike was really patient with her. His dog is friendly and was a good playmate for our girl, and his house is kept clean. We got a lot of updates, pictures, and videos, which was appreciated! Will be rebooking in the future!”
About: I have been a dedicated dog dad for over 4 years. While I have experience managing a multiple dog household, I currently only have my resident German Shepherd at home during sittings. He is a "big baby" super friendly, well-socialized, and great at making guest dogs feel welcome. I live to make these 4 legged animals smile, you can be sure your pup will have a good time when I’m around! As a dedicated dog owner for over four years, I offer a safe and structured 'home away from home' for your pup. My household is perfectly set up for socialization, featuring my friendly, 'big baby' German Shepherd who loves making new friends. To ensure a calm and focused environment, my other resident dogs stay off site during bookings, allowing me to prioritize your pet’s specific needs. Whether it’s managing high-energy play, providing gentle senior care, or maintaining strict feeding and medication schedules, I provide your dog with a reliable routine filled with backyard fun, mental enrichment, and plenty of cuddles. You can travel with peace of mind knowing your dog is being cared for by an experienced handler who treats every guest like family! When a doggo stays with me, they aren't just a "guest" they become apart of the family. My goal is to keep their home routine so they don't feel the stress of your absence.
“Christian is great! We have a new puppy who is very young and Christian took on the challenge with ease! Our puppy had such a fun day and was definitely tuckered our from a day of play when we got home. He sent us pictures and videos throughout the day to keep us updated on how our boy was doing. We are very happy and can’t wait to take our puppy back to doggy daycare again!”
“Our two dogs seemed to be at ease with Megan during a four hour "day care" at her residence. They came home happy, tired and healthy. I think that's a good sign. I met her two dogs and found them to be gentle and well-behaved. Although our dogs were with her for only a four hour stay that day, she still somehow managed to get nice, little walk in for them! At this point, I feel comfortable with Megan and her ability to care for our doggies and would use her service again. She's very professional, cordial and accommodating. She provided quick responses every time I had questions. Thanks!”
“Brooke and Jeremy were amazing for doggy daycare. They were incredibly accommodating with my early work hours, which made everything so much easier for me. My pup tends to be pretty anxious, but they handled him with so much care and patience-it really gave me peace of mind. I truly appreciate the attention and effort they put into making him comfortable. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care.”
“I have been using Marie since I started booking with her and it always the best. She goes above and beyond to take care of Morty and give him plenty of exercise and love!!!”
“Our puppy really enjoys her time here. Liceth will keep you updated on what your dog is up to periodically and even send you plenty of pics. We’re looking forward to bringing her older brother here soon.”
“Michelle and her husband were very nice. This was our first time leaving Ace with a dog sitter and we were very nervous of how he’d react. They spent extra time with us to make sure we were comfortable with their home before leaving Ace there. Michelle also kept me updated and sent pics of Ace throughout the day. Ace came back happy and seemed as though he enjoyed his stay.”

About: I have had pets all my life, and I truly love caring for and looking after them because being around animals brings me happiness, comfort, and a strong sense of joy every day.

Always keep a watch on them, feed them, walk them,play with them, and clean them

“Khadija was great with my dog Mochi! Mo can be a handful due to reactivity to other dogs, and he's 70lbs of muscle that requires both strong, confident and gentle handling. Khadija handled him with ease, and he really took to her from day 1. He always came home super happy from his walks with her and we will definitely use her again. Thanks Khadija!”
About: I've had a variety of pets in my life more often than not. Pets become family members and I want to be your pet's second family! Let me take care of their needs when you need time away on vacation or work prevents you from doing it. I'm willing to help in any way with senior pets and I have the energy to keep pace with your high energy pets. I am finishing my 24th year as a middle school teacher. If I have patience with high energy 5th graders, your pet will be a piece of cake! I am a 5th grade Science and Social Studies teacher. During the school year I am available for early morning check ins and any time after 4 pm. during the week. My weekends are open to fulfill your needs at any time. Between June 1st and August 14th my schedule to help you out is wide open. In your house it is your rules. I will follow whatever guidelines and directions you have for me. At my house, I am willing to crate or not. Whatever your preference. I do have a nice sized yard, but unfortunately it is only fenced in at my pool. I would have to supervise your pet in my yard.
About: Hi! I’m Liv, and I’d love to get some steps in with some new furry friends. I’ve cared for both adult and senior cats and dogs, including those with special needs, and I’m attentive to individual routines, medications, and comfort levels. I’m unavailable on weekdays due to my full-time job, but I’d love to spend my weekends walking, visiting, and adventuring with your pets! I prioritize safety, trust, and clear communication in every booking. When we first start working together, I’m happy to meet in a public place for a meet-and-greet so we can get to know each other and make sure it’s a great fit for you and your dog. To provide the best possible care, I ask that any special needs, behavioral considerations, or medical requirements are shared upfront. I always walk dogs on a leash to ensure their safety, and for in-home visits, I appreciate detailed written instructions so I can closely follow your pet’s normal routine and keep things consistent.. I also have experience caring for pets with complex medical needs.
About: I (Eren) have been a veterinary technician since 2023, working in a variety of settings including a clinic, shelter, and university research hospital caring for special-needs dogs. Through this experience, I’m comfortable with medical care, senior pets, administering medications, recognizing early signs of illness, and handling animals with unique behavioral needs. I’ve also had animals my entire life, from cats and dogs to exotics, so I understand how different every species (and every personality!) can be. I’m patient, gentle, and confident with shy or anxious animals, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. My partner Luca is also part of our Rover profile and shares this same passion for animal care. We have multiple pets together and work as a team to provide attentive, reliable care. Luca previously worked at the same clinic I’m at as a receptionist and veterinary assistant, and now works in a science lab where he also helps care for lab animals. His experience makes him calm, capable, and very comfortable handling a wide range of animals. What sets us apart is that we combine professional veterinary experience with genuine, everyday love for animals. Between the two of us, your pets will always have attentive, knowledgeable, and compassionate care. We currently have cats, ferrets, mice and 1 bearded dragon of our own, and we hold ourselves to the same high standard of care that we would want for them. Pet care fits naturally into our weekly routine because animals have always been a huge part of our lives. I work full-time, but I schedule my Rover services around my work hours so that every visit gets my full attention. I’m typically available before or after work for drop-ins, walks, and evening check-ins, and I always communicate clearly about my availability. My partner Luca helps provide additional flexibility. He is a full-time student and works part-time in a lab, with a schedule that tends to stay consistent for longer periods. Because our schedules often complement each other, one of us is usually available when the other is not. This allows us to offer more consistent and reliable care throughout the day. Even with busy schedules, caring for animals is something we both genuinely enjoy and make time for, and we never take on more than we can fully commit to. We primarily care for pets in our clients’ homes, where they feel safest and most comfortable. As a veterinary technician, safety is always my first priority. We follow your pet’s normal routines closely, including feeding, medications, walks, and playtime, while also keeping an eye out for any early signs of stress or illness. We’re respectful of your home, trustworthy with your space, and committed to creating a calm, clean environment for your pets while you’re away. We provide regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you always know how your pet is doing.
