“Thank you so much Mayra for taking amazing care of my baby boy on this long stay. Mayra is amazing and i can tell by the pictures and videos i was receiving daily that Milo was in loving care. Thank you so much to Mayra and her family!”
“Jean took excellent care of my two pups! They are both young, full of energy and sometimes naughty. Jean took it all in stride. She really cares about their well-being and happiness. She gave them the love and attention that they needed. She also provided me with updates to set me at ease and allow me to enjoy vacation.”
“Nicole was an excellent pet sitter. She sent me pictures and daily updates about Cinnamon, and she took her out on walks and took good care of her. I would definitely hire her again and recommend her to others.”
“Fernando really helped me out in pinch when needing care for my fur baby for an extended weekend. He kept me updated and followed my fur baby's senior care needs and instructions. I will definitely refer. 😃”
“Cera was amazing with my puppy. He isn't even a year old yet and this was his very first time away from us. He was timid at first and Cera was always communicating how he was doing and sending pictures. I felt so good leaving him with someone that loves him like her own. I would trust Cera with any furry friend. She was absolutely amazing!”
“Samantha watched my dog that has anxiety and never spent a day let alone 5 nights away from me in her 5 years on this earth. She welcomed Zoey into her home and made it feel like her own. I got a few pics with an update on how she was doing. Samantha was great with communication pre booking and every quick with responding. I would recommend her to anyone needing boarding”
“100% recommended. I felt very calm throughout my trip because JoEllen was in constant communication with me everyday, She always sent me photos and updates on how my dear Ginger was doing. THANK YOU VERY MUCH”
“Alyssa took great care of our beautiful Lilly. Lilly was a bit anxious the first night, but Alyssa made her comfortable and even slept on the couch next to Lilly's bed. Thanks to Alyssa's patience, Lilly slept soundly in her bed in Alyssa's room on the 3rd night. Lilly loved Alyssa and I'm sure she'll be happy to return to Alyssa's care when needed. Alyssa provided updates several times a day and responded to any of my messages in a very timely fashion. I would recommend Alyssa to anyone as I can tell that she lovingly cared for our big girl the same as we do.”
“Julie and Caleb were wonderful!!! Our pups had a great time, they came home super tired from all the playing they did. Communication was great, and quick. Julie even sent pictures and a video. We highly recommend them and will definitely use them for future needs.”
“This was perfect for what I needed. We had no local friends or family that could take our cat. We were going to be away but he couldn't be at the house because we were having work done on it while we were gone. They took our cat into their home. I was surprised to see they had other cats when I arrived. But one question on the survey was if your pet does well with other cats, which he does, but cats tend to not be friendly with new cats initially so I was a bit worried they'd fight, but they had a separate area, a sun room that they allowed Sox to adjust in and during the week they had sent pictures of him being inside the home on the couch so obviously it was fine. I actually never met or dealt with Sarah only her Mom. Which I felt was odd. I was expecting the person pictured, the person I paid. Her Mom was lovely and clearly there were no issues and my cat was returned safely to me, I just felt it was odd the Sarah was sleeping or "resting because she works a lot" both times I was there. I didn't take any stars off my review for that, because again the service accomplished what I needed which was my cat to be cared for outside of my home.”
“Jim was very understanding about my pets habits and needs. He sent daily updates and pictures of Onyx and Yoshi they looked very happy and content. I will use Jim for all my pets away from home needs. Thanks Jim”
“Lisa continues to be a great help to our family. Lucy knows her well now and always comes home in a great mood and a bit tuckered out. I miss Lucy so much while we are away but with the updates throughout her stay, I can see she's having just as much fun, if not more, on her vacation too.”
“Janette and her family are so sweet and obviously love taking care of dogs. They welcomed my puppy into their home right along side their adorable three dogs and three kids. He had tons of space to run around outside, a puppy pool to splash around in, and a safe place inside for his crate so he could get some sleep overnight. They sent me pictures and an update during his stay, and told me all about how he did when I picked him up. He came home tired, happy, and clean - what more could I ask for?”
“Cassandra was OUTSTANDING! I cannot recommend her enough. She cared for my pups while I was on vacation and they were so loved! She sent pictures, snuggled them, and was so calm when any issues came up! She is wonderful!”
“Molly is extremely sweet and easy to work with. From setting up a meet and greet to answering all of my questions she made the process of leaving my fur baby in her care seamless. Our family is excited to have found a trusted person we can leave our pup with during our absence!! Max is looking forward to his next stay with you.”
“Highly recommend Alexa! She has watched my pup Harley twice now— she is super responsive and sends daily updates/pics. Harley always comes home tired and happy from all the playtime”
“Dolly must have had a wonderful time with Beth and the family. I'm not even so sure she's glad to be home. Lol. We will definitely reach out to Beth next time we need Dolly to go in vacation.”
“This was our first time using Tristan and was very pleased with the care that he and his family gave our dog. Was such a nice change over the kennel that we would have normally used, was like having him at a friends home. Will definitely use his services again!”
“Natalie and her husband are the absolute best! They kept me updated on my pups with pictures and messages each day! Their home is beautiful and clean with lots of room for my pups to play. I am so grateful I found them and would highly recommend to everyone. I completely trust my 2 dogs with them and felt safe knowing they were in their care our whole trip!!!!! ❤️”

“Jenni was so good and heartwarming to Ube and Keso! They immediately warmed up to her during our meet-and-greet and I knew that they would be safe and well taken care of during her visits. She sent me plenty of pictures, communicate very well, very friendly, and refills necessary food equipment. Highly recommended if you’re in her local area and need someone for a quick visit or long term care!”
“Cera was a delight to have! She took excellent care of my kitties, she sent a lot of pictures which showcased their respective personalities and made me happy while I was away. She even did one of the silly little things I do, which I didn't even ask for, and that made me happier bc it showed how much thought she put into their care. Highly recommended!”
“I have used Rover a few times and have had some issues in the past with sitters. Hailey however went above and beyond my expectations. She was so amazing with my kitty Sammi, she was great with communication and I loved getting pictures of my girl while I was away! Definitely would recommend her if you are looking for any sort of pet care! Was great not having to worry while I was away!”
“Amanda was absolutely wonderful with our dogs and treated them as her own. She was super caring and attentive and made sure they were well taken care of. Would absolutely recommend her for any of your Rover needs!”
“Diana was very accommodating & was able to help me out at the last minute. She did very well with my two dogs & they seemed to be very comfortable with her. She followed my detailed instructions & didn't appear to have any problems with my sometimes problematic dog. I would definitely recommend Diana to those who need a caring, responsible pet sitter.”
About: Cats have been a lifelong passion of mine. I currently share my home with five cats, including cats with behavioral challenges, which has given me firsthand experience managing different personalities, needs, and behaviors on a daily basis. Professionally, I have worked in animal-related fields since I was 16 and have spent the past three years as a Shelter Behavior Specialist, working closely with cats to reduce stress, build confidence, and improve their quality of life. My experience includes reading feline body language, assessing fear, anxiety, and stress levels, providing enrichment, and helping shy, fearful, undersocialized, and behaviorally complex cats feel more comfortable. In addition to my professional background, I have four years of pet-sitting experience and understand how important it is to maintain a cat's routine and environment while their family is away. I provide patient, compassionate, cat-centered care and tailor my approach to each cat's individual personality, whether they are outgoing, reserved, senior, or have unique behavioral needs.
“Andrew was a great sitter for our guinea pig Jasper. He’s very thoughtful, attentive and follows directions well. Having such a great sitter makes going away easier. We will book him in the future! He also took care of my herbs while we were away which was also much appreciated.”
“Amber did a wonderful job looking after our four cats. She was so pleasant to work with, was prompt, organized and followed directions well. You could tell she cared about the cats and that they were doing well. We can't thank her enough and hope to have her care for the kitties again!”
“What a lovely experience. From our initial meeting that gave us confidence, to the great communication throughout, we had peace of mind that our guy was being well cared for. The photographs and updates were so appreciated. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Clare.”

About: I give personal, one-on-one care. I am not overbooked or rushing between multiple pets. When your dog is with me, they become my priority. I follow your routines carefully, keeping you updated with photos and notes, and create a comfortable environment where they can relax. I’m dependable and genuinely invested in making your dog feel safe and well cared for every single time. I am with my kids most days, so dog sitting fits into our regular home routine. The dogs are part of the household during their stay- they get walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day while kids are at school or busy doing their own activities. I’m always home and focused on making sure every dog feels safe and well cared for. When I’m not with kids I’m am very open to bringing my services to other homes. I care for dogs in my home, where they become part of my daily routine. They get regular walks, playtime, and quiet rest in a comfortable space. I stick closely to their normal schedule so they feel at ease in a new place. You’ll get updates with photos so you never have to wonder how they are doing.
About: I’ve had all kinds of pets since I was a toddler. I grew up on a farm. I love all animals and treat them with compassion! Some people call me the real Snow White. I’ve rehabbed / saved several wild animals back to their natural environment. I can provide the care needed for your furbaby whether its special needs, puppy, lazy or hyper baby - I am ready and willing to treat them like family. There will always be someone home during the work week.. I have a flexible work schedule. I work in the office few times a week; however, work is only a mile away so I come home for an hour lunch break at noon (Schedule is 8-5). My husband works overnight (remote) and sleeps for few hours in the early mornings then takes the dogs for a walk later in the afternoon. We are typically home during the weekends with few hours here and there for errands. There will never be a time we are gone for more than 4 hours at a time. I have walking trails in the area to walk your dogs within my community. I have a small backyard for small dogs or seniors; if walks are not part of their daily routine. If they enjoy car rides I am happy to take them on small local trails or a local doggy park. I have 2 loving chihuahuas who will keep your baby/babies company. My boys are crate trained, but I am flexible with your needs. I am happy to crate or not crate based on your preference.

“Lovely woman who welcomed my puppy into her home! She was understanding of the curiosity of a puppy which I appreciated. She expressed genuine care and I was so grateful for her availability.”
About: I've had dogs in my life since I was in my 20s. I have crate and potty trained all my dogs. I have patience and compassion for dogs. I would often meet up with friends and family at house party gathering and dog park gatherings to socialize my dogs and to show them love, companionship, and that they are a member of the family not only a pet. I've kept and cared for dogs until there dying age and paid for there cremation. I am indeed a dog loving person. I am currently taking care of my mom who has dementia 24/7 and I am home with her all day. The only days I'm out the house is when my mom or myself have a doctor's appointment. The time I have during the day, I can do dog walks and drop by to feed and let your dog out to your yard. I currently have a chiwawa mix dog name Romeo and he is fed, taken out for walks and sleeps on my sofa everyday. He is encouraged to play, fetch and have treats as rewards. He is shown love everyday and has all his shots and vet visits up to date.
“I had such a great experience with Lydianis! She watched my dog overnight and took amazing care of him. She kept me updated the whole time with photos, which gave me real peace of mind. She made sure he felt comfortable, safe, and right at home. You can truly tell she cares and goes above and beyond. On top of that, she even helped me find him a new home because of my situation, and she found him the most amazing family. That meant everything to me. She doesn’t treat pets like “just dogs” she treats them with real love and compassion. I truly trust her with any of my pets and would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
About: Looking for a calm, loving place where your dog will be treated like family? You've found it! I know how hard it can be to leave your furry best friend, so my goal is to make their stay feel as comfortable, safe, and stress-free as possible. Whether you need doggy daycare for a few hours, overnight boarding, or care for a long weekend, your pup will receive plenty of one-on-one attention in a peaceful home. One of the biggest perks? I don't currently have a dog of my own, so your pup gets my full attention without having to compete with other resident dogs. I work from home full-time, so they'll have companionship throughout the day, regular potty breaks, playtime, belly rubs, and lots of love. My home is set up with dogs in mind, including a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. Every dog has their own routine, and I'm happy to accommodate it. If your pup is crate-trained, I'm happy to continue that routine. If they prefer to free roam, they're welcome to make themselves at home. I have a naturally quiet household—no loud music or constant commotion—making it an ideal environment for dogs who enjoy a relaxed atmosphere. Whether your dog loves to play, snuggle on the couch, or simply nap in a cozy spot, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also have two cats who live upstairs in their own separate area and do not interact with boarding dogs, allowing everyone to enjoy their own space comfortably. I know you're trusting someone with a member of your family, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I'll treat your pup with the same patience, affection, and care I'd want for my own pet, while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.

While outside, your dog will be free to roam my fenced in yard. While indoors, your dog will be free to get cozy on the couch.
“Anri has been a fantastic daytime sitter for Vinny! From the moment we arrived, it was clear she created a safe, welcoming space for dogs to play and relax. Vinny immediately hit it off with her dog, and each morning he was excited to head back. Anri made sure he got regular walks and plenty of time to play. Highly recommend!”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. As a lifelong pet owner, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I have worked with animals professionally since I was 16 years old and have spent the past three years working in animal shelters as a Behavior Specialist, helping dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and temperaments feel comfortable, safe, and successful. In addition to my shelter experience, I have four years of pet-sitting experience caring for dogs, cats, and other household pets. My background in animal behavior allows me to recognize body language, reduce stress, and provide individualized care based on each pet's unique needs. Whether your pet loves adventure, needs extra patience, or simply enjoys a consistent routine, I am committed to providing safe, compassionate, and reliable care while you're away. i’m currently working full time and have off on sundays and monday. On the days i work, i work 9-5:30 sometimes getting done earlier on occasion. I currently have a whole separate room to separate cats from my own. I work in animal welfare and know how important sanitization is a well.
About: I have had various dogs since I was a child including dachshunds, jack russels, and chihuahuas. I’ve always helped around the house and with the animals. (We’ve even had goats, chickens, goats, and a pig! So I know how to handle different dynamics.) I have trained and taken care of my own dachshund puppy over the past two years. I’ve taught him tricks, crate trained him, and navigated how to walk on a leash properly. As an early grad I am working to build my schedule with work. I make time for what’s important to me and that includes YOUR FURRY BABIES! I do have one part time job but I am very flexible with my availability. If you prefer me to be present at the house 24/7 I will! If you are okay with me working a shift or two while petsitting I can do that as well. All I need is communication! I will act and provide my services based on you and your pets needs. I am comfortable to give medicine, take your pets out for potty breaks any time they need, to crate them or share a bed for my stay.
“Whitney did an excellent job interacting with our dog in our meet and greet and on his walks. You could tell her compassion for the pet and that she enjoyed her time with our pet. We would absolutely use her again.”

I’ve helped care for cats and dogs for family and friends in the past, providing feeding, playtime, companionship, and general care. I genuinely love spending time with animals! I’m very patient and understanding, which I think is super important when it comes to pet care (and earning their trust!). I am a college student but I usually only have two classes in the morning, which leaves me free the rest of the day to give your pets plenty of attention, care, and love! I have a fenced backyard and a super friendly, medium-sized dog, along with a cat who spends most of her day exploring outside. If your pet needs privacy or separate space, I totally understand and have room to accommodate that.

When you book a walk or a sitting session with me, you and your pet are guaranteed the following: -Prompt communication, including verification of time, location, and services -On-time arrival -Energy, care, and activity level catered to your pet's specific needs (either provide me with this information before hand, or I will be able to pick up on this within moments of meeting your pet) -Complete confidence in your pet's safety, even with the largest dog or most exotic reptile -A detailed report of what we did together, how your pet acted, and anything else particularly notable that came up during our time together Please feel free to inquire about anything you see on my profile, and I look forward to meeting you and your pet soon!
“My dogs always look forward to seeing Amber and I'm so thankful I found such a trustworthy and caring person to take care of my dogs when I'm not home! She follows all directions and I know all my dogs (including my senior pups) are safe and happy in her care. Thank you, Amber!”
“Roberta was great with our small dog. Daily walks were supported with pictures and video, she was very respectful and loving with him. I will definitely be reaching out to her again for future jobs as they come up and would highly recommend that others in the area do as well if you want a solid, honest animal lover looking after yours.”
About: I was on a farm most of my life, I’ve cared for many types of animals. I love all animals, reptiles and fish, if you need someone to stop by and care for yours I would like to be considered to help out. Being on a farm most of my life I have had the opportunity to care for a lot of different animals. I work from home and my job is very flexible I can stop by to visit your pet and feed and or walk them. Like to meet them I have a little dog and a cat. I am more than willing to come to your home and take your pets out for a walk at your home, water them, and feed them.

“Jean took excellent care of my two pups! They are both young, full of energy and sometimes naughty. Jean took it all in stride. She really cares about their well-being and happiness. She gave them the love and attention that they needed. She also provided me with updates to set me at ease and allow me to enjoy vacation.”
“Nicole was an excellent pet sitter. She sent me pictures and daily updates about Cinnamon, and she took her out on walks and took good care of her. I would definitely hire her again and recommend her to others.”
“Samantha watched my dog that has anxiety and never spent a day let alone 5 nights away from me in her 5 years on this earth. She welcomed Zoey into her home and made it feel like her own. I got a few pics with an update on how she was doing. Samantha was great with communication pre booking and every quick with responding. I would recommend her to anyone needing boarding”
“100% recommended. I felt very calm throughout my trip because JoEllen was in constant communication with me everyday, She always sent me photos and updates on how my dear Ginger was doing. THANK YOU VERY MUCH”
“Alyssa took great care of our beautiful Lilly. Lilly was a bit anxious the first night, but Alyssa made her comfortable and even slept on the couch next to Lilly's bed. Thanks to Alyssa's patience, Lilly slept soundly in her bed in Alyssa's room on the 3rd night. Lilly loved Alyssa and I'm sure she'll be happy to return to Alyssa's care when needed. Alyssa provided updates several times a day and responded to any of my messages in a very timely fashion. I would recommend Alyssa to anyone as I can tell that she lovingly cared for our big girl the same as we do.”
“Julie and Caleb were wonderful!!! Our pups had a great time, they came home super tired from all the playing they did. Communication was great, and quick. Julie even sent pictures and a video. We highly recommend them and will definitely use them for future needs.”
“Jim was very understanding about my pets habits and needs. He sent daily updates and pictures of Onyx and Yoshi they looked very happy and content. I will use Jim for all my pets away from home needs. Thanks Jim”
“Lisa continues to be a great help to our family. Lucy knows her well now and always comes home in a great mood and a bit tuckered out. I miss Lucy so much while we are away but with the updates throughout her stay, I can see she's having just as much fun, if not more, on her vacation too.”
“Cassandra was OUTSTANDING! I cannot recommend her enough. She cared for my pups while I was on vacation and they were so loved! She sent pictures, snuggled them, and was so calm when any issues came up! She is wonderful!”
“Highly recommend Alexa! She has watched my pup Harley twice now— she is super responsive and sends daily updates/pics. Harley always comes home tired and happy from all the playtime”
“Dolly must have had a wonderful time with Beth and the family. I'm not even so sure she's glad to be home. Lol. We will definitely reach out to Beth next time we need Dolly to go in vacation.”
“This was our first time using Tristan and was very pleased with the care that he and his family gave our dog. Was such a nice change over the kennel that we would have normally used, was like having him at a friends home. Will definitely use his services again!”
“Jennifer saved us with a last minute booking and it was a great experience for our pup. We will definitely book with her again. She kept us posted with updates and pics. Easy meet and greet because she only takes 1 animal at a time and does not have a pup, so I didn't need to worry about Sully getting along with another pup. Such a relief and peace of mind.”
“We left Harper with Carole for 2 weeks while we were on vacation and Carole was great. Sent us daily photos of Harper playing with other dogs. Thank you Carole for taking such good care of her!”
“We were desperate last minute for someone to watch our dog on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We reached out to Lydianis and her husband Alex on Rover. They were very quick to respond and continued with good communication throughout the entire time they had my dog. They took the time, at a very busy time of year, to meet us on the Sunday before at a local park and introduced their beautiful Lab Chase to us. Seeing how well they handled Chase and how understanding they were of Clementine’s intimidation, really eased our minds of my small dog being around a bigger dog and it showed how compassionate these two fun dog loving people are towards their guest dogs and owners. Prior to Clem's stay, they asked all the right questions about how to care for her and what they could do to help with any anxiety, when to feed her how much, etc., We felt very comfortable with them and liked both of them very much! We will definitely be calling again to have them watch our little fur baby!”
“Amber and her family were great. Our little guy was happy and made himself right at home. We enjoyed the consistent pictures, and appreciated Amber's clear and responsive communication. Will definitely use her again!”
“Miss Dawn’s house is our boys favorite vacation place. She treats these boys as her own! Makes sure the one boy gets his meds everyday. Sends photos and updates twice a day. They always have a wonderful time and I am worry free! A+++++ highly recommend!!”
