“Stacy is fantastic! Our dog was excited to go when we dropped her off. This time we had our puppy there too. Both dogs were well taken care of and loved. They seemed to have a great time. She even helped with some extra work for our puppy. We feel good when we can leave them with someone we trust.”
“We are again super happy with the care Jill and her husband provide. She send pictures and updates, we leave our dog here without any worries! Will book again for sure!”
“Emily was very accommodating and friendly. My golden doodle had a great time spending the week with her. She sent daily updates to let me know how my girl was doing. She was willing to giver her medication daily and listened to any concerns or routines my pup has and react to them. Great experience! Will use again!”
“Michaela was incredible! This was our first time using Rover or anyone other than friends/family watching Maggie (as she was a rescue dog and severely abused when we got her) - she was so good with Maggie! Maggie is older (17) and needs extra love and attention and she def got that and more. We will def use Michaela again!”
“Crystal is not only patient, loving, and caring for our kitties, she also provides great peace of mind for us in being so flexible in arranging drop off and pick up times for our fur buds but also in adjusting to the eve changing medical requirements for our special kitty!”
“Dannah and her dog Elphie are the best sitters! Dannah is very communicative and trustworthy. My dog is now best buddies with Elphie. She gets lots of exercise and attention when she stays with them. I always feel my dog is safe and well cared for. Dannah sends daily photos and videos of the dogs playing and cuddling together!”
“This is the 3rd time we have left our pup with Debbie and Phil and I cannot speak highly enough of them and our experiences! They take such wonderful care of our dog and really treat her like their own. They give us piece of mind so we can enjoy our time away without worrying. They have wonderful communication and are very flexible. Would highly recommend!”
“Chase was happy, healthy, plus brushed and clean when we picked him up from Megan. We also got honest feedback about a behavior problem we had not known about before. Highly recommend.”
“Alexandra always takes such good care of Rosie! Her own dog is such a good host too. Alexandra keeps me updated with fun pictures and videos that show that client dogs settle right into her comfy home. Definitely recommend!”
About: I have been passionate about the care of animals ever since I was a child. I’ve owned 4 dogs of my own and would love the opportunity to care for your fur baby. I now have the time and space to offer my home and large, fenced-in yard to dog sitting services for your dog’s needs. Pet care is fully integrated into my daily routine. I work full-time from home, so I’m able to provide constant supervision, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. My own dog, Kip, is part of a consistent schedule that includes two to three walks daily, outdoor time in our large fenced-in yard, playtime, and downtime for rest and cuddles. Because I’m home all day, dogs in my care are never left alone for long periods and are able to maintain a routine similar to what they’re used to at home. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual needs, whether that means extra exercise, quiet companionship, or structured routines, and I enjoy making pet care a central part of my day rather than something I have to fit in around other commitments. When caring for dogs in my home, I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment where they’re treated like part of the family. Because I work full-time from home, dogs in my care receive 24/7 supervision, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I follow each dog’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walk routines, and any special instructions provided by the owner. Dogs enjoy two to three daily walks, outdoor time in my large, fully fenced-in yard, and plenty of playtime, enrichment, and affection. I pay close attention to each dog’s comfort, behavior, and energy level to ensure they feel secure and relaxed. My home is calm, dog-friendly, and well-suited for providing consistent care, whether a dog loves active play or prefers a quieter, more relaxed environment. Safety, communication, and individualized care are always my top priorities, and my goal is to make every dog feel at home while their owner is away.
“Winnie's stay with Rosa could not have gone any better. We were a little apprehensive at first because we were afraid Winnie wouldn't feel comfortable, but our worries proved to be just that....merely worries. Rosa was very considerate to Winnie's needs and her feelings. She was also very considerate with us by sending us pictures multiple times a day as well as keeping an open line of constant communication. She was very comforting as well as very professional. We really could not have asked for a better family to watch our Winnie. We would recommend them to anyone.”
“Linda was able to accommodate my request for a dog sitter on short-notice despite it also being on a holiday. She was prompt to respond and put my mind at ease at the meet and greet. Multiple updates were sent throughout my dog’s stay and it was clear that he was enjoying himself and well looked after. He had another doggy playmate that he had a blast with. I felt very comfortable having my dog in her hands.”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life. From training my families yellow lab while growing up, to playing with my brothers Australian shepherd, to giving my girlfriends Akita his food and medicine while my girlfriend sleeps in, I can handle it all. I have an open schedule and am available everyday of the week. I am happy to create a schedule that fits your needs and requests! I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every home I care for. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions provided. I always keep pets in secure, pet-safe spaces, monitor behavior and health, and make sure doors, gates, and hazards are carefully managed to prevent accidents or escapes.
“Liz and her family did an amazing job accommodating my Beagle Pitbull Mix Mollie ♥️. Sent lots of pictures and we're flexible with travel delays. I could tell she had a great time and was in safe, welcoming hands ✨♥️”
“I was able to thoroughly relax and enjoy my own vacation knowing that Maggie was loved, well care for, and had other dogs to play with. I will definitely keep this service and Kristen M. in my contacts for all my future needs.”
“Nicole has watched Koba 3 times and always available even at the last minute, she takes good care of Koba and very reasonable if you need an extra few hours or day. Would recommend all day”

“Ciel was an incredible sitter for my cat! She sent small updates and pictures each day, and I never worried about how my cat was doing. It made it so easy to travel for the holidays without him. Highly recommend her!!”
“Jenny was great! She took great care of our cat that had just started a new food regimen. This was a last minute booking and she was very accommodating with my asks, given the new food and our trip. We will definitely use Jenny again when we have a need!”
“Amber was wonderful!! She somehow bonded almost right away with our cat, Fred. Fred doesn't like anyone except me (Pat). But he loved Amber. She kept in touch. Send videos. Left the house perfectly clean and picked up. We will definitely request her the next time we travel. Hope she'll still be working for Rover.com. She's also very friendly and easy going!”
About: In the past I have volunteered a Forever Paws Animal Shelter as a cat room specialist. My job was to complete health checks, socialize, feed, groom, and clean the cats, as well as maintain the cleanliness of the rooms they dwelled in. I actually met my cat there! We created such a strong bond that I had to take him home and we have been inseparable since! I have also volunteered in a cat veterinarian clinic in the past, administering oral medications and helping handle.
“Anna took very good care of our boy George! Judging from the photos she sent he was very happy with her and had some good snuggle time. She fed him and cleaned his litter box, and we will certainly call her next time we're away!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets reliably and consistently since I was 15, and over the years I’ve built strong experience with cats and dogs of all ages and needs. What sets me apart is my experience with senior and special needs dogs and cats—I understand the extra patience, gentleness, and attentiveness they require, whether it’s administering medications, helping them move around comfortably, or simply giving them calm companionship. I’m committed to treating every pet like my own, with a balance of love, structure, and reliability that gives owners peace of mind. As a self-employed person, I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule, which allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the day and week. I’m able to plan around feeding times, walks, play, and check-ins, and I have the time to give pets consistent attention without feeling rushed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always make safety and trust my top priorities. I carefully follow the pet’s established routine, from feeding schedules to walk routes, and make sure doors, leashes, and gates are always secure. During walks, I’m attentive to my surroundings and keep pets safe from hazards or unfamiliar animals. I also keep the home environment tidy and respectful, treating it with the same care I would my own. My goal is to give pets a comfortable, stress-free experience and give owners peace of mind knowing their pets and home are in responsible hands.
“Andrew always takes great care of our cats and gives detailed reports on how they are doing. He seems to genuinely care about our cats like they are his own. It is so nice to never worry about them while we are gone.”
About: I have two cats of my own. I’ve had them my whole life. The one is about to be 16 soon and he needs to wear a diaper whenever he’s roaming the house. Both of our cats were saved from the streets from a young age and we cared for them and still have them. I also go to college for animal studies and have kennel duties that require me to clean the cat room where theres like 10 cats in a night room. So, I know how to care for many cats at one time and for cats that need special treatment as well.
“Kathleen was great- she went above and beyond for our cat. She provided lots of photos, notes and updates while we were away. She was very informative and thorough! We plan to use her again if she is available!”
“Outstanding service, Sierra went above and beyond to take care of my babies. Cordial, responsible and understanding. I would very much recommend her services to anyone looking for a reliable person to take care of your pets.”
“Kaitlynn has visited with and cared for my dog during multiple visits now. She is easy to communicate with, sends pictures and updates, and my dog loves her and is well cared for! I would recommend Kaitlynn to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Madison is super trustworthy, followed all my instructions to the T, and communicated all throughout her drop ins! I will definitely book her, again, with a peace of mind if she’s available in the future!”
About: i’ve house sat and pet sat for over 5 years all over town and everything has always gone well, i’m a very good communicator as well. i have dogs and cats of my own so i know how to treat animals in need of some care for a couple days. i do online school and work maybe 3 times a week so i’m available 7 days a week to watch and take care of whatever you and your pet needs. i take them out for walks if needed, i make sure to play with them for about an hour a day. i make sure that they are fed and given water accordingly. and lastly i make sure that they are comfortable.

“Melissa was absolutely wonderful caring for our pup. She watched our boy for the day and I never had any doubt that he would not be well taken care of. Melissa is a great communicator and sent pictures and updates throughout the day. Would highly recommend if you are looking for someone who is reliable, kind, and a dog lover.”
“Highly recommend Jill and Scott's doggy daycare experience. My 7 year old Frenchie thoroughly enjoyed her stay on two different days while we were visiting Bucknell University for my daughter's graduation. Jill was flexible, warm, knowledgeable and reassuring. We had a brief meet and greet with her Doodle at drop off the first day, and Sawyer was relaxed and happy at pick up. On the second visit, Sawyer eagerly ran right inside! Thank you for making our college graduation stress-free and fun for our pup! 😊”
“Thank you so very much for your tender kind hearted caring services you bring to Zoey. We so appreciate being able to go away knowing she is well loved every time and always have peace leaving her with you.”

About: I have cared for all kinds of animals since I was a child. I put only three years of experience because that’s when I turned 18. I have dealt with small dogs, big dogs, medium dogs, cats, and other kinds of furry and non-furry pets. I am here to give your four legged animals love and attention and their parents the support they need. I am currently working full-time 3 PM to 1 AM. I am always off Monday and Thursday and have a random third day off. That may seem like a tight schedule now but that is subject to change soon and I’m looking forward to meeting every one of your loved furry babies! I have a very large yard, although unfenced, but I do have two different leads hooked up outside. I do have a large size crate, if needed and wanted. My mom lives with us and she has two dogs, one big and old, one small and young who are both well-behaved and socialized for other dogs. We are also able to keep them away from your loved ones if preferred.
“Maggie and Nathaniel took care of our dog for a few hours while we were passing though St Louis. Not only did they take great care of our dog, they were prompt, communicative and helpful. I highly recommend using them!”
“We love Erin and her dog Charlie! Erin had a good size yard that they both run like crazy in chasing each other. Erin always sends me updates through the day to let me know how our girl is doing!”
“Emily is ALWAYS willing to work with our mom's schedule! She's so great! She knows what we like and her pups are so much fun to play with, and when we get in the car to go home we can hardly keep our eyes open! Thank you, Emily and family! 💘 Kassie and Lucky”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet parent currently sharing my home with 3 cats, 2 dogs, a bunny, and a chinchilla. My family lovingly calls me the cat whisperer—but the truth is, animals of all kinds seem to feel at ease around me. With a lifetime of caring for pets, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to look after your furry (or fluffy!) family members. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or special care routines, I provide the same love and attention I give my own pets. I’m here to give you peace of mind while you're away, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and loved. Let’s make tails wag and whiskers twitch—I'd love to meet your pets! I work from home and have a pretty flexible work schedule so your dog will be able to go outside multiple times a day, or whenever it needs to! While I have a large, open yard, it is unfenced—so for everyone’s safety, all visiting dogs are supervised at all times and never left outside unattended. My own two dogs are crate trained, and I use crates or safe indoor spaces as needed to ensure a calm and secure environment for every pet in my care. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities!
“I feel so blessed to have found Rosa on Rover. She was so good with my 6-lb shitzu mix, Fiona. She sent me videos, updates, agreed to do a video call while I was on vacation and I have never seen Fiona so happy. She had her own vacation with Rosa and her family. I will certainly reach out to her again and I recommend her to anyone looking for a trusting and professional pet sitter. Thank you for everything, Rosa!!!”
“I am very particular with my pup and her safety and I never feel nervous bringing her to Megan's place. She exercises her well and having other pups around helps to socialize my pup! Megan is top notch when it comes to help with training as well! She stays familiar with the rules I have for my dog and makes sure my dog is following the same rules in her home. Since my dog has been taken care of by Megan, she has learned how to walk better on a leash, learned new tricks and also reacts better with other dogs. Megan is extremely knowledgeable about dogs. This is the best doggy daycare I could ask for, perfect for any pup that doesn't want to be left at home, wants to learn new tricks, needs some or a lot of exercise, needs socialization with other dogs, needs some mind stimulation and much more. For all that Megan does, this doggy daycare is an absolute steal for the price!!”

Pet sitting is something I truly enjoy, and I do this full time to make sure your pets are always cared for. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or overnight care, I’m always here when you need reliable, attentive care. I will keep pets safe by following owner instructions, supervising closely, maintaining routine, using leashes, restricting access, and monitoring health and behavior constantly carefully daily.

About: I've had pets my entire life and am well aware of the dedication, discipline, and love it takes to care for cats and dogs alike. I have vast experience with extra mini, small, medium, and large dogs; puppies and older dogs; and cats and kittens. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, wash, train, feed, and care for their pets for multiple days at a time. I recently have been exposed to training dogs to be mental health service dogs, so I am well aware of the necessity to keep them on a disciplined schedule and regime while still allowing them to play and be puppies! As for cats, although their care generally is less complicated than that of dogs', it is no less important to provide everything that their owners have implemented into their lives. All in all, I adore animals and appreciate what it takes to be a pet owner and will do my best to exceed your expectations. I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to care for pets throughout the day and evening, including long walks and play time. I am also available for overnight stays. I value the expectations and precedent set by my clients and want to honor the rules they have set in place. I understand the trust that goes into allowing a stranger to care for your pet and want to assure you that your pets' wellness and safety are my top priority. I'll always ensure they are hydrated (especially in the summer), they are either fenced in or on a leash, their training (if applicable) is respected, and any other expectations you have for the care of your fur babies.
About: I have vast experience working with many different animals, and one of my greatest strengths is helping make the animals I work with feel comfortable. I am certain that I could do the same with your animals too! Specifically, the animals that I work with range from box turtles, cats, small dogs, and large dogs. I am currently a student at Capital University, but I am willing to squeeze in time on my breaks and during the summer to walk and/or take care of your fur babies for whenever you need!! I have a very flexible schedule and would be willing to work with you in order to meet your pet's needs! My services include house sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits. You give me a time and place and I'll be there for your fur baby!
About: Large Animal Science graduate, have completed the vet tech, dog grooming, and agility courses at BCAHS. Experience with diverse/exotic animal caretaking rolls, canine cpr certified, lots of experience with difficult dog breeds. My schedule with work is very flexible. Usually I tend to walk my dog for a 1-2 hours a day. It is extremely important that my dog Nala gets exercise each day to make sure she stays happy and healthy. Sometimes I also take my cat on the walks as well (he loves spending time outside with his sister with his harness and leash on!). Weekends have much more flexibility with my schedule. It is extremely important to make sure that any animal feels comfortable in their environment. Giving them the opportunity to take bathroom breaks and keeping pets on their normal schedule is very important. Giving pets access to fresh drinking water, specific foods, and medications as needed is also crucial. Providing proper exercise and mental enrichment only helps to further improve an animal’s experience in their surroundings as well.
“We have only had one outing at this point, but Makahalee has been very flexible and reliable so far. She was receptive and understanding of our needs and our dog, Brittany's, needs. We think Makahalee will be a good thing for Brittany.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals for at least 13 years. I have done many in-house sittings. I have also walked and fed dogs and cat for many of my friends and family. I currently work full-time. My schedule is hybrid, which means I WFH 3 days a week and I’m in the office 2 days. I usually can move my schedule around to make visits. I cannot do middle of the day visits during the week, but I’m always willing to modify times or work with a pet owner to make sure their pets are getting the care they need. I have a big yard and a lead to take dogs outside. I live in the country so walks are a must around here. If I’m at a clients home, whatever directions are there I will follow them to ensure your pet is cared for with love and a friendly face.
About: I have been around dogs my entire life.

About: I’ve had a lifelong passion for animals, starting with my first dog at age 8. My deep love for pets led me to consider a career as a veterinarian, though I ultimately chose a different path. Despite this, my commitment to animal care remains strong. I have extensive experience caring for my own pets, including a friendly dog and four cats. Additionally, I’ve provided reliable pet care for family friends, ensuring their pets receive the same level of attention and affection. My experience includes handling a range of needs, from playful puppies to senior pets, and I am dedicated to offering personalized, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s unique requirements. Pet care for me is incorporated into my routine with flexibility. Since I work part-time and my schedule varies weekly, I adjust my availability to ensure that I can provide the necessary care and attention. This includes feeding, exercise, and any specific needs the dogs may have. I manage to fit these responsibilities into both weekdays and weekends according to my work schedule. In my home, I provide pet care by utilizing a secure, fenced yard where pets can play and exercise safely. My own friendly dog and four friendly cats are accustomed to interacting with other animals and are well-socialized. I ensure all pets are comfortable and supervised. If needed, I can crate them for their safety or for managing their environment. I adapt my care approach based on the specific needs of each pet, providing a safe, clean, and caring environment tailored to their well-being.

About: I've had a plethora of animals over my 35 years of existence. Dog breeds include a Labrador, Border Collie, Beagle, German Shepard, and Chihuahua. Other species include six rats, one guinea pig, three rabbits, two corn snakes, and a bearded dragon. I do not have any children, and I'm living with my father. Together, we have two dogs, (one his, and the other mine), a garage cat (his), and a bearded dragon (mine). His dog is a German Shepard named Wren, and mine is a Chihuahua named Milo. Additionally, I quit the job I've had for years, so I have a fairly flexible schedule. All of our animals have schedules for everything. Potty breaks, food times, etc. We keep it fairly strict, but also know how to read our animals, and so the schedule is subject to slight changes. I can adapt, and learn new schedules for clients.

“Stacy is fantastic! Our dog was excited to go when we dropped her off. This time we had our puppy there too. Both dogs were well taken care of and loved. They seemed to have a great time.

This was our first time using Rover or anyone other than friends/family watching Maggie (as she was a rescue dog and severely abused when we got her) - she was so good with Maggie! Maggie is older (17) and needs extra love and attention and she def got that and more. We will def use Michaela again!”
“Crystal is not only patient, loving, and caring for our kitties, she also provides great peace of mind for us in being so flexible in arranging drop off and pick up times for our fur buds but also in adjusting to the eve changing medical requirements for our special kitty!”
About: I have been passionate about the care of animals ever since I was a child. I’ve owned 4 dogs of my own and would love the opportunity to care for your fur baby. I now have the time and space to offer my home and large, fenced-in yard to dog sitting services for your dog’s needs. Pet care is fully integrated into my daily routine. I work full-time from home, so I’m able to provide constant supervision, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. My own dog, Kip, is part of a consistent schedule that includes two to three walks daily, outdoor time in our large fenced-in yard, playtime, and downtime for rest and cuddles. Because I’m home all day, dogs in my care are never left alone for long periods and are able to maintain a routine similar to what they’re used to at home. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual needs, whether that means extra exercise, quiet companionship, or structured routines, and I enjoy making pet care a central part of my day rather than something I have to fit in around other commitments. When caring for dogs in my home, I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment where they’re treated like part of the family. Because I work full-time from home, dogs in my care receive 24/7 supervision, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I follow each dog’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walk routines, and any special instructions provided by the owner. Dogs enjoy two to three daily walks, outdoor time in my large, fully fenced-in yard, and plenty of playtime, enrichment, and affection. I pay close attention to each dog’s comfort, behavior, and energy level to ensure they feel secure and relaxed. My home is calm, dog-friendly, and well-suited for providing consistent care, whether a dog loves active play or prefers a quieter, more relaxed environment. Safety, communication, and individualized care are always my top priorities, and my goal is to make every dog feel at home while their owner is away.
“Linda was able to accommodate my request for a dog sitter on short-notice despite it also being on a holiday. She was prompt to respond and put my mind at ease at the meet and greet. Multiple updates were sent throughout my dog’s stay and it was clear that he was enjoying himself and well looked after. He had another doggy playmate that he had a blast with. I felt very comfortable having my dog in her hands.”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life. From training my families yellow lab while growing up, to playing with my brothers Australian shepherd, to giving my girlfriends Akita his food and medicine while my girlfriend sleeps in, I can handle it all. I have an open schedule and am available everyday of the week. I am happy to create a schedule that fits your needs and requests! I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every home I care for. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions provided. I always keep pets in secure, pet-safe spaces, monitor behavior and health, and make sure doors, gates, and hazards are carefully managed to prevent accidents or escapes.
“I was able to thoroughly relax and enjoy my own vacation knowing that Maggie was loved, well care for, and had other dogs to play with. I will definitely keep this service and Kristen M. in my contacts for all my future needs.”
“Nicole has watched Koba 3 times and always available even at the last minute, she takes good care of Koba and very reasonable if you need an extra few hours or day. Would recommend all day”
“Hopper loves Amy and Milo! We do not like to send him anywhere else!!! We now live almost 2 hours away, but still make the drive to know my dog is happy and safe while we are away. She sends a bunch of pictures and updates! Words cannot express how grateful I am to have Amy taking care of my boy”
“Erin is awesome. We have a Golden who gets very anxious and likes to be near a human at all times. Erin took amazing care of our dog. Excellent communication with us. Beautiful fenced yard & our dog had a blast playing with her dog. Highly recommend and have already made another booking.”
“Celestia and Ryan were absolutely great. They accommodated my last-minute trip and boarded my dog Rocky for two nights and three days. They sent me pictures and videos, which ease my worries. Rocky had the best time. I will definitely be using them again. Thank you so much Celestia and Ryan.”
About: I stand out from other pet sitters because I treat every animal as if they were my own, paying close attention to their unique personalities, routines, and needs. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented, so you’ll always know your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether it’s sticking to feeding schedules, providing extra playtime, or giving nervous pets the patience they need, I go the extra mile to make sure both pets and their owners feel completely at ease. Pet sitting is something I truly enjoy, and I do this full time to make sure your pets are always cared for. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or overnight care, I’m always here when you need reliable, attentive care. I will keep pets safe by following owner instructions, supervising closely, maintaining routine, using leashes, restricting access, and monitoring health and behavior constantly carefully daily.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs every kind for 10+years. Friends, families, neighbors they have all relied on me to take care of their pets and still it’s really not like a job but a dream. I currently don’t work , so I am available literally 24 seven to take care of pets of all kinds except Sundays but text or call at anytime. I have a big yard away from the highways I live in the country and I have two friendly dogs to keep company with any kind of other pet visitors we might have.
About: Hey! Looking to start dog walking and dog sitting on the side to make some extra cash! I have two great dogs myself and grew up with dogs, so I'm very comfortable with any and all breeds! I live in a large house with a huge fenced in yard if you ever need me to keep your dog/dogs at my place! I have three kids I stay home with, so I'm available whenever really! I do clean two homes every week, but again I make my own hours with that! I have side gigs right now because it works with my family's life right now with little kids! I have a fenced in huge yard for the dogs to run and play and I can do drop-in visits at your home as well or just stop in to take them out for a walk and potty break!
