About: I have owned dogs and cats since 1985 and was on a K9 Search and Rescue team for 18+ years so I have worked with all types of dogs and have a lot of experience with training. I currently work outside the home M-F 9-5 but can work from home upon request. Weekends I am home the majority of the time and spend most of my time hanging out with my own dogs (two labs) I have hosted a variety of dogs in my home including corgis, labs, goldens, frenchies, pitties, mals, and other assorted breeds. I treat everyone's pets just like my own - lots of treats, snuggles, couch naps, and of course sleeping on the bed if they want. Both of my labs are extremely friendly and love pretty much all dogs, but I do have experience sitting some dogs who preferred to be separate from my boys via either baby gates or kennels (depending on what the dog is comfortable with). I have a large fenced in backyard and a smaller fenced in front yard. The backyard has a doggie door that allows the dogs to go in and out at will, although when I am not home, I do not give any dogs access to the yard (even my own dogs as a safety issue).
“If there was a rate of 10 stars Briana would get it! The communication is fabulous along with the pictures of our sweet Samoyed with her family and their dog, Duke. We are at easy knowing our sweet boy is being well taken care of when we travel.”
“Laurie was wonderful with Gracie! I was a little nervous letting Gracie stay away but from the moment we had our meet & greet I felt very comfortable. Laurie, her sweet dog Daphne & daughter were very warm and welcoming. Laurie provided many check-ins and promptly answered all of the questions I had. I would definitely Laurie to anyone looking for a sitter and plan to use Laurie again in the future!”
“Angeline was wonderful and so reassuring to us! Our pup was well cared for, and came home happy and healthy. We loved the cute photos Angeline texted each morning!”
“They did a wonderful job taking care of our 6 month old puppy, Daisy. Lots of pictures throughout the day. Time outside and at a dog park to release some in of her puppy energy. She was a very happy and tired puppy after her day-long visit.”
“We had great experience with Jena and Nick. Dexter received lots of love, personal attention, playtime, daily walks. Their pet Sebastian was a very nice dog and became great buddy of Dexter in a short time. They have a very nice and clean fenced backyard too. Dexter really enjoyed his time with Jena, Nick and Sebastian… We really appreciate their effort in making sure Dexter felt it at home…Thank you Jane, Nick and Sebastian for being so lovely to Dexter.”
“Wow, I’m blown away. Finding good, reliable, affordable pet care is no small feat. We left our two dogs in Michael’s care for a week. Our 10 month old puppy, Obi would have happily stayed forever because he had such a great time. Our sweet corgi Sookie was mad at us a perplexed for the first couple of days, but eventually settled into her flow, which is chasing a ball constantly. Michael sends videos all the time and it was so fun to see Sookie and Obi settling in and doing their thing. We are 100% return clients and highly recommend Michael.”
“Amanda is AMAZING!! She takes all proper precautions to ensure safety of her clients and their fur babies. I met her prior to her keeping Nike but did not need her service at the time. I had an emergency come up and without hesitation she was willing to care for Nike. She sent picture updates and stayed in consistent communication. I thank her so much for alleviating my stress level while I was out of town. Highly recommend”
“Samantha and Ian took wonderful care of our pups while we were on vacation for a week. They sent many updates and photos while we were away. Our dogs didn't want to come home I don't think! We have tried many dog sitters and will only be using Samantha and Ian from here out!”
“This is our 2nd time bringing our dog here while we were away for a few days and once again we are very happy with the stay that he had. It's extremely hard for me to find someone I am comfortable leaving my dog with, but from here on out anytime we go anywhere, this is our "go-to" sitter.”
About: While volunteering for dog rescue for 6+ years, I’ve had the opportunity to foster over 160 dogs of all ages, administer just about every type of medication, and vaccinate 1000’s of dogs traveling to foster and adopter homes I do not work for anyone else. My time will be fully dedicated to your pet along with my own and with as much love I have 3 friendly dogs at home. I have the ability to keep dogs separately in open or closed rooms. Crates or not crated. Once comfortable, they can spend time on the couch and playtime with other dogs with your approval.
“The experience with Stacey was excellent and couldn't have hoped for any better. Stacey made us feel completely comfortable and at ease right from the beginning. She took the time to discuss her previous experience and map out how things were going to take place. She introduced Sydney to the other dogs slowly and in a way that made it very stress free and enjoyable for Sydney. Stacey kept us updated with messages and photos of Sydney throughout her stay. Sydney was very happy at the end of the stay. We'd definitely recommend Stacey to anyone looking for a sitter and will be using her again in the future.”
“Cheryl is impossibly lovely. Our dog is a nervous boarder - he often struggles the first few days. But he didn't spend a single night in his crate while in Cheryl's care. She was super flexible with the start and end time of our stay and clearly gave our pupper a second home while we were away. We couldn't ask for a better experience.”
“Amazing! Would highly recommend. Knew my Bear was loved and cared for. Was able to help us with short notice after a my wife and I have been dealing with a tree falling on our house. Very grateful!”
“My dog went back to Lindsey’s while I was on a recent trip. He had a great time there with her and the family! I loved seeing the photo updates and I always know that he’s in good hands there!”
“This family is the very BEST at caring for our little pup! She always comes home happy! We know our dog is getting excellent socialization, exercise and loving attention. Maria and her family always surpass our expectations and provide reliable communication. More than anything, we trust and feel at ease leaving our dog with Maria. She's the best!!”

“Jocelyn took fantastic care of my boy Sidney! This was my first time using her services and I have nothing but great things to say. She sent lots of photos and videos, and detailed updates on how he was doing. Sid can be very shy around new people, but obviously felt very comfortable with Jocelyn. I would absolutely recommend having her take care of your fur babies!”
“Mary is amazing! Is always very prepared and is clearly experienced. She takes this seriously in a way that I feel comfortable trusting her a lot. Really appreciate everything she does!”
About: I had cats from 1985-2010 so I've had plenty of kitty experience, including two cats that were diabetic so I had to administer insulin daily. As for litter boxes, as long as there are enough to makes the cats happy, that's a good thing. I don't currently have a cat because after my last one passed away I turned my focus onto K9 search and rescue so I had a lot of strange dogs visiting which isn't good if you also have cats - it can be stressful for both!
About: I have taken care of a neighbors two cats for a two week long period, one cat being a kitten and the other being about 3 years old. I have taken care of my aunt’s 3 cats which range from 1 year old to 5 years old. I am a current college student at Kent State University. I am very responsible, trusting, and timely. I understand the love people have for their pets and I will give the same love to them.
“What wonderful care she took of my two cats! One needed seizure medicine twice a day and one is terribly shy and she went above and beyond to meet their needs and personalities! Was such a hard working and kind person and offered to help with anything needed while I was away. I highly recommend her!”
“Thank you for going above and beyond! The service and genuine care that was provided went above and beyond! I’d not only use your services again, but I would recommend you to anyone and everyone who is looking for someone to take care of their pups!!!”
“Serenity was a great cat sitter! Helped Mu the cat stay well fed for a week, with some enrichment and clean litter, while we were away. We were extra appreciative for her flexibility as our plans changed due to car problems. We'll reach out for cat sitting help in the future and I'd definitely recommend Serenity if a friend needed a pet sitter!”
About: I have extensive experience with animals of all sorts. I grew up with English mastiff dogs, then became a husky lover later on in life. I've owned sheep, goats, cows, horses, chickens, dogs, cats and much more. I grew up on a mini farm and we always had different animals who were raised with lots of love and care. I'm looking to replace one of my part time jobs with taking care of your awesome pets! I will only accept clients if I have the time to give your pets the best care. I am great at following your most detailed instructions for your home. At this time I cannot care for pets in my home because I am not set up for that but will be in the future.
“Couldn’t be happier with Halie with my fur babies. I trust her in my home and with my babies. Love that Rover allows her to provide pics and the amount of potty/pee breaks while she is there. Also has her check in and check out when her visit is complete. Highly recommend Rover and Halie 100%!”
“Gwynn has been so helpful with the pups since I went back to work. Now she is loved by my kitties too! She’s timely, communicates well, checks all their needs and spoils them with attention.”
“Ronnie is so great! my kitties usually don't like strangers but loved Ronnie! went above my expectations and made me feel comfortable about leaving my babies in her care. would definitely be using again. ❤️”
“Outstanding cat sitter! Nicole provided truly wonderful care for my cat over several days. I especially appreciated the frequent photo updates, which gave me great peace of mind. She diligently administered medication and treats, and always made sure my cat had fresh food and water. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve grown up with cats my entire life and currently have cats of my own, so I understand that every cat has a unique personality and routine. I’ve also fostered young kittens, giving me experience with feeding, socializing, monitoring their health, and helping them adjust to new environments. I’ve learned safe handling techniques, how to recognize signs that a cat may not be feeling well, and the importance of keeping their environment clean and low-stress. Iv worked with them all whether thats playful, shy, social, non social, kitten, or senior. I’ll be happy to adjust for your cat’s needs.
“Cassandra was WONDERFUL! My cats were happy when I got home, but I could tell that they were lovingly cared for. Cassandra sent me pictures every day and messaged me to see if there was anything else that she could do for me. The house was immaculate when I came home and the sheets were washed. I would HIGHLY recommend this lovely caring young lady!”
“Brook-lynn is great to Max. He's always so excited after a stop in visit with her. She communicates well and always sends me photos. I'd high recommend letting her take care of your fur baby!”

“Mary was great! My puppy was a little apprehensive at first but by the end of the day settled right in. She had great communication and sent a few photos during the day and kept me updated to ease my anxiety.”
About: I have had a dog my entire life. When my last one passed, my heart was broken and I haven’t been able to get another one. I watched my daughter’s dog for a year but took her back about a year ago to Idaho. I work from home and it’s very quiet without any four-legged friends to keep me company throughout the day. I would love to help you out by watching your fur baby (& I can’t lie, it would make my heart happy to do so :)) I only book for one owner at a time & I do require a Meet & Greet to make sure I am a good fit for you & your furry friend. I work from home and have the flexibility to take them out for walks as needed. I walk multiple times a day & would love to share that with a dog. Because I work from home, I am easily able to give a lot of love to your fur baby so that you can relax and not worry about a thing. I will love them like they are my own!
“I hate to repeat myself, but I can't say enough great things about Briana. She goes above and beyond in every way each time Libbie visits. During the stay, I receive updates with cute photos and videos about how she is doing. It is obvious my dog is genuinely loved. Her assistant, Duke, is a gentle, big boy. Libbie loves hanging with him. He seems to know exactly what play style to provide. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to book with Briana. If you are looking for someone who treats your dog like family, look no further. BUT know I will be super upset if you take my next booking spot!!”
About: I have had pets ever since I was a small child: dogs, cats, hamster, gerbils, chinchilla, parakeet, turtles, even a toad that we saved from a freezing winter. We took care of it till spring and then released it. I love animals of all types. Almost, I'm not babysitting your tarantula or pet snake. My dog and cat are loved as if they were my children and your dog will be treated this way as well. We enjoy taking walks and car rides to the dog park in nice days. I never allow my dog outside without me. I am semi-retired and I work from home painting and repairing furniture and working on various crafts. Therefore I am very flexible with my time. I live in a decent sized 2 story home with a large back yard. It is not fenced all the way so my dog is always on a cable or leash. We live to go for walks and to the dog park for extra exercise. My dog is a husky mix and is almost 4 years old. She loves dogs of all sizes.
“My dog Arthur has very specific needs and doesn’t feel comfortable with just anybody. Arthur seemed to settle right in, and take over. He even ate his dinner which he doesn’t do when he’s nervous or anxious. I’m hoping that Chris will be available again sometime when I would like to get out of the house. Extremely pleased!”
About: Hello! My name is Emily, and I'm a pet sitter with a passion for animals of all shapes and sizes. I have been caring for pets for several years, and I understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and stimulating environment for your furry friends while you're away. I understand that pets are part of the family, and I always treat them with the respect and care they deserve. I am reliable, responsible, and always go the extra mile to ensure that your pet is happy and healthy while in my care. I look forward to the opportunity to care for your fur baby! I am a Registered Nurse who works night shift three days a week so I am pretty flexible with my schedule. I'm sure we will be able to work out a time for both of us. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I am comfortable administering medications, following special dietary requirements, and handling any other specific needs your pet may have. I am dedicated to providing the highest level of care for your pet and ensuring that they receive the love and attention they deserve while you're away.
About: I am a single mom with 20 year old daughter who is away at college. I have a golden retriever who loves to have dog friends visit. Your pet will get the same TLC as my own dog. They will be a part of our family while they are with us. I have a fenced in yard, making it easy for your pet to be safe and get some exercise too. I have been watching dogs in my home for about 25 years. I work from home Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, and I am gone on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from about 10-4, so I am almost always home aside from the occasional errands. On Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, I can always run home in the middle of the day if a potty break is needed. Accidents are ok too. Mine has had a few over the years. Your dog will never be in trouble if this happens. You won’t have to worry about your dogs when they are with me. They will be treated like family. I work from home, so your pets will rarely be left alone. When they are, it is just for brief periods for when I running errands. I have a fenced in yard and w very friendly fur baby of my own. I can let them out frequently and always supervise outside even though my yard is fenced. I am able to feed them if they are here during meal time. I will just need to know if your dog is food possessive so I can make sure they eat separately from my dog. Unfortunately I can’t leave your dogs food down throughout the day because my dog will eat it.
About: I have a dog of my own. I potty trained her and I also taught her several tricks. She is a very active dog but it's nothing I can’t handle. I walk my dog 3-5x everyday depending on the weather. I also fill their water bowl and food bowl every morning. A few times throughout the week I go to the dog park. Everyone in my home including my dog is friendly when it comes to animals. We will treat yours like family because we are a very dog-loving family.
“Anthony was great watching my dog. Very responsible and caring. I can tell Finnegan got plenty of play time by the photos and videos. Would not think twice about letting Finnegan stay there again. Awesome!”
“Michael is simply amazing. We have a one year old beagle mix who has a lot of energy and separation anxiety. We did a meet and greet a few days ago. I was so worried she was going to act up when we left her but she just happily walked in then backyard and played hard!! We def recommend Michael and will be using him in the future for doggie daycare!”
“Basil came home tired and worn out. I think she had a good time staying at Heather's with her man, and the kids! Would recommend her! Shes punctual with replying back, very informative, and fairly prices, and she accommodated basil with her special need.”
“10/10 would recommend. You can tell how much effort she put into her bio and her house setup for pets. She's such a sweetheart very reasonably priced but deserves a good tip. I love how experienced she is with a variety. I love the play places she has setup for the pets. I am excited to hopefully keep coming to her. She even gave us a little goodie bag. It was so cute. I especially enjoyed the updates and pics and Vids. Wendy is wonderful”
“Brittany has been such a blessing for me, giving me such peace of mind knowing my pup is well cared for and happy while I'm gone. I have a rescue lab puppy - full of energy with a bit of anxiety thrown in - and she is patient and kind with him, while making sure he does what he should (or shouldn't)! My pup gets excited as we pull up in the car, and can't wait to get out! Brittany sends updates and pictures throughout the day so I can see how he's doing, and I pick up a happy, tired puppy - I feel fortunate to have found Brittany!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 18. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets!

Prices are estimates per walk. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: I’ve had a lifetime of caring for a wide range of animals. Particularly dogs and horses but all creatures welcome. Good with body language and attentive to animals needs. I’m an avid hiker and love taking dogs for walks. 💕 I work part time from home and have a flexible schedule to accommodate your pet’s needs. This flexibility lends itself well to constant care required by puppies, the elderly and other special souls. I rarely host multiple families of dogs at one time (might be some overlap on pickup/drop off days) and prefer to focus on a quality experience for the dog over multiple bookings. If you make a request and I tell you it’s not a good fit at this time, it’s because I have carefully considered the safety and happiness of another client. Your pet will not be left unattended for extended periods of time during the day. I know firsthand how stressful it can be to find quality pet care and pride myself on being dependable and responsive. I take the responsibility of caring for your animal seriously. I live in a rural area on a road with very little traffic. We have two horses, chickens and two dogs on our 14 acre property. I do not have a fenced area and use tie outs for porch lounging and hand walking for potty runs. Your pet will have access to the main floor of my house (no stairs) including furniture (if allowed). The ability to change the floor plan also allows to separate animals if beneficial.
“Jocelyn is WONDERFUL! Super professional and caring. My dog fell in love with her immediately and he is picky about who he trusts. I booked her because of the reviews and they were 100% spot on!”
About: I am very flexible with hours. I am an active person and happy to play with your pet and walk them as much as needed. I grew up in the cold, so weather doesn't bother me walking or driving. I also am willing to work with your hours and do what is best for your pet. I also am always happy to send pictures and check in so you know they are living your best life. I can be flexible but I am a morning person so early walks are okay with me. I can also drop in easily through the day with little issue. I grew up with large dogs (lover (100lbs) and 2 cats, and am the current owner of a Bernese Mountain dog who I love. I love all animals but tend to lean to bigger dogs. I like cats butdon't currently own one due to my husband. I am newer to rover but have spent a lot of time caring for my own pets but also dog sitting for others in their homes over the last 7 years.
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with dogs and currently have two of my own, so caring for them is second nature to me. They truly become part of the family — honestly, my dogs are like my children. Because of this, I understand how important it is to know your dog is safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I make sure every dog feels comfortable and cared for. I’m also a Reiki practitioner and sometimes offer gentle animal Reiki, which can help create a calm and relaxed environment for animals. My experience with energy work has helped me become very patient, attentive, and in tune with what animals need. Your dog will be treated like one of my own — with lots of love, attention, and care. I am available Friday evening through Monday evening most weekend. I believe this would be a great opportunity to care for animals while helping their owners have an easier time in life when responsibilities arise. I have a very clean, comfortable, trusted home. I watch a dear friend of mines dog once in a while, and while I have 2 dogs of my own, they truly enjoy the company of other dogs that can become their new friends! I will treat your baby as part of my family and show them the most love I can.
“Rhianna was fantastic. Libbie looked forward to her afternoon walks while we were in town. She was prompt, provided great communication, and took some of the best animated pics of Libbie! I plan to connect with her again next time I am back in town.”
“Gwynn has been continually reliable and caring! She has been working with us fir years. She always gives detailed reports, numerous photos, and she will give you advanced schedule/notice if she will be unavailable. It is so nice to know she is there for us all!”
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life and recently completed a veterinary assistant program through my school’s career and technical center, as well as volunteered at the local animal shelter. Through my training, I’ve learned safe animal handling, recognizing signs of illness, administering basic care, maintaining cleanliness, and keeping pets comfortable and stress-free. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats of different ages and personalities. I understand how important it is to treat every pet with patience, kindness, and attention to detail. I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide care throughout the week. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine for feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of affection. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Through my veterinary assistant training, I’ve learned safe handling techniques and how to recognize when a pet may not be feeling well. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, keep their environment clean and secure, and provide regular updates with photos so you can feel confident they’re receiving loving, dependable care.
“We have used him twice and he went above and beyond both times walking my dog, from taking him in his car to a better location for a walk to potty breaks and putting him back in his cage and setting it up the way it was before for his anxiety I would absolutely recommend to anyone”
“Leah did such a great job with our five month-old puppy, which is a tall order because he has A LOT of energy! She even took some time to work with him on a few tricks. I would highly recommend Leah as she is reliable, conscientious and very patient.”
“Serenity is amazing! I was so worried about someone handling my big boys but she did a great job! They LOVE her & she handled them amazingly. She followed all my instructions, made sure they got some energy out & gave them lots of snuggles. She sent me pics & kept in contact to let me know how they were doing! Highly recommend”

“I've booked with Drew several times since 2022 and I have always felt my 2 dogs were in excellent hands. She is excellent communicating with me, on time and I know my dogs are in good hands. It was a relief when I had unexpectedly needed someone to walk Caddo and Tasha and found Drew was available. She's my go-to sitter!”
About: Hello! My name is Tabatha Garman, I am the sole owner and operator of Special Paws Pet Care and a Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT). As a veterinary technician, I play the nurse role of the veterinary team. I graduated from Kent State University with my Associate's degree in Veterinary Technology in May of 2021 and am currently pursuing my Bachelor's of Integrated Studies focused in animal behavior. While in school for my technician license, I gained various hands-on skills with a variety of animals, from dogs and cats to birds, horses, snakes, and much more. Outside of school, I have trained at numerous veterinary hospitals and gained vital experience in CPR and emergency response. My personal experience caring for animals expands far beyond my education and career, as I have cared for my own, family's, and friend's pets my entire life. As previously mentioned, I have a vast range of experience with different species from small pocket pets and reptiles to large and farm animals. I love working with nearly any species, especially pigs and cows! My medication administration skills are just as vast, including giving various types of injections and fluids, oral pill and liquid administration, topical applications, etc. Any pets with special needs are assured to be taken care of! Specializing in animal behavior, those with unique personalities or who are a bit grumpy or naturally prefer alone time are some of my favorite to work with. I love working to understand them and win them over and am happy to try to work with any type of disposition or behavioral challenges. No job is too big or small. Whether you have a pet that needs daily medication, help getting around, and extra special care, or just want to feel comforted knowing that your furry family member is in great hands, I am happy to care for any and all of them. I am currently dedicating my time to in-home pet care while going to school full-time online, so I am free to fit your pet into my schedule however you may need. While I do personalize my schedule to fit your pet specifically, my typical day is scheduled like this and changed as needed, just to give you a better idea of your pet's time with me: When I arrive, I always spend time making sure your pet is happy, comfortable, and has everything they need. When staying with them overnight, I will keep them company until morning, make sure they have everything they need and get some pets or playtime in, then I will leave as needed to tend to any other appointments, making sure to return to check-in and spend time with them at minimum every 3-4 hours, unless more frequently is needed. Whether you just need a daily check in and play time for your cat while you're away, or if you need someone to take your pup out every couple of hours along with walks and lots of play time, or even if you have an older pup who can't really spend time alone at all, we can definitely make a plan to suit your family purrr-fectly. Your pet's safety is always my top priority. Whether at home, in the car, at the vet, out for a walk, or at the park, I am always extremely diligent to make sure your pet stays safe and sound. I always use doggy seatbelts or enclosures when driving, reflective strips and flashlights at night, ramps and manual assistance for mobility-challenged pups, predator-deterrent to protect them from harm, and vet-approved chews or boredom busters to make sure your pup is happier and healthier when you arrive back home. Out of an abundance of caution, I typically do not have pets I'm watching interact with other pets I'm unfamiliar with (ie: no communal dog parks). In the case that anything does happen while I am with them, I am trained on the safest and most effective way to stop a dog fight, as well as being trained in CPR, emergency triage and response, and homeostatic stabilization. I also always have a list of the nearest emergency hospitals on hand should they ever be needed. I strive to follow all pet-parent's wants and needs for their pets, including whatever training or rules you may have for your pet while they are in my care (crating, treats, toys, etc). If there are any additional safety measures you would like to discuss, just let me know!

About: I have owned dogs and cats since 1985 and was on a K9 Search and Rescue team for 18+ years so I have worked with all types of dogs and have a lot of experience with training. I currently work outside the home M-F 9-5 but can work from home upon request. Weekends I am home the majority of the time and spend most of my time hanging out with my own dogs (two labs) I have hosted a variety of dogs in my home including corgis, labs, goldens, frenchies, pitties, mals, and other assorted breeds. I treat everyone's pets just like my own - lots of treats, snuggles, couch naps, and of course sleeping on the bed if they want. Both of my labs are extremely friendly and love pretty much all dogs, but I do have experience sitting some dogs who preferred to be separate from my boys via either baby gates or kennels (depending on what the dog is comfortable with). I have a large fenced in backyard and a smaller fenced in front yard. The backyard has a doggie door that allows the dogs to go in and out at will, although when I am not home, I do not give any dogs access to the yard (even my own dogs as a safety issue).
“If there was a rate of 10 stars Briana would get it! The communication is fabulous along with the pictures of our sweet Samoyed with her family and their dog, Duke. We are at easy knowing our sweet boy is being well taken care of when we travel.”
“They did a wonderful job taking care of our 6 month old puppy, Daisy. Lots of pictures throughout the day. Time outside and at a dog park to release some in of her puppy energy. She was a very happy and tired puppy after her day-long visit.”
“Wow, I’m blown away. Finding good, reliable, affordable pet care is no small feat. We left our two dogs in Michael’s care for a week. Our 10 month old puppy, Obi would have happily stayed forever because he had such a great time. Our sweet corgi Sookie was mad at us a perplexed for the first couple of days, but eventually settled into her flow, which is chasing a ball constantly. Michael sends videos all the time and it was so fun to see Sookie and Obi settling in and doing their thing. We are 100% return clients and highly recommend Michael.”
“Samantha and Ian took wonderful care of our pups while we were on vacation for a week. They sent many updates and photos while we were away. Our dogs didn't want to come home I don't think! We have tried many dog sitters and will only be using Samantha and Ian from here out!”
“This is our 2nd time bringing our dog here while we were away for a few days and once again we are very happy with the stay that he had. It's extremely hard for me to find someone I am comfortable leaving my dog with, but from here on out anytime we go anywhere, this is our "go-to" sitter.”
About: While volunteering for dog rescue for 6+ years, I’ve had the opportunity to foster over 160 dogs of all ages, administer just about every type of medication, and vaccinate 1000’s of dogs traveling to foster and adopter homes I do not work for anyone else. My time will be fully dedicated to your pet along with my own and with as much love I have 3 friendly dogs at home. I have the ability to keep dogs separately in open or closed rooms. Crates or not crated. Once comfortable, they can spend time on the couch and playtime with other dogs with your approval.
“The experience with Stacey was excellent and couldn't have hoped for any better. Stacey made us feel completely comfortable and at ease right from the beginning. She took the time to discuss her previous experience and map out how things were going to take place. She introduced Sydney to the other dogs slowly and in a way that made it very stress free and enjoyable for Sydney. Stacey kept us updated with messages and photos of Sydney throughout her stay. Sydney was very happy at the end of the stay. We'd definitely recommend Stacey to anyone looking for a sitter and will be using her again in the future.”
“Amazing! Would highly recommend. Knew my Bear was loved and cared for. Was able to help us with short notice after a my wife and I have been dealing with a tree falling on our house. Very grateful!”
“My dog went back to Lindsey’s while I was on a recent trip. He had a great time there with her and the family! I loved seeing the photo updates and I always know that he’s in good hands there!”
“Lindsey and her family took excellent care of our dog, Willow for a 1 week stay. We received daily photos and comments of how her trip was going, which made us feel in the loop while we missed our girl. Would recommend to others who need a safe, loving home for their dog.”
About: For the past seven years, I had the privilege of sharing my life with my dog, Agatha, whom I adopted when she was around seven years old. She recently passed away at an estimated 14 years old after battling cancer. Caring for Agatha, especially during the last few months of her life, taught me patience, compassion, and how to meet a dog exactly where they are. As she got older, she needed more hands-on support. Whether it was helping her stand, carrying her when her body wouldn't cooperate (all 55 pounds of her!), or hand-feeding her because that's how she was most comfortable, I learned that every dog has unique needs and deserves care that respects their personality. Agatha was fiercely independent, so I always tried to give her as much dignity and choice as possible while making sure she felt safe and loved. While I'm not ready to adopt another dog just yet, I truly miss having one in my life. That's what brought me to Rover. I would love the opportunity to care for your pet, whether they enjoy long walks, playtime, or simply having a calm companion nearby. I live in an apartment with easy access to outdoor walking paths, sidewalks, and a nearby dog park, making it easy to provide plenty of exercise, fresh air, and opportunities to explore. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, cared for, and at home while you're away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they're in loving hands. I own a local fitness studio, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to plan my day around the pets in my care. Most weekdays, I'm available between 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. for walks, drop-in visits, or spending quality time with pets. My mornings typically begin around 8:00 a.m., and I'm at my studio from approximately 9:00–11:00 a.m. and again from 4:00–7:00 p.m. Because I have flexibility throughout the day, I can provide regular potty breaks, exercise, meals, and companionship. Whether your pet enjoys an active walk, playtime, or simply relaxing with someone nearby, I'll make sure they receive attentive, personalized care while you're away. I know that every pet is different, so my first priority is getting to know your dog's routine, personality, and any special needs before their stay or visit. I'll follow your instructions closely, whether that's feeding schedules, medications, favorite walking routes, or little routines that help your pet feel comfortable. In my home, pets will have a clean, calm environment with plenty of attention, fresh water, potty breaks, exercise, and a comfortable place to rest. I live in an apartment with easy access to sidewalks, green space, and a nearby dog park for dogs who enjoy socializing (only with your permission). If I'm caring for your pet in your home, I'll treat your home with the same respect I would my own while keeping your pet's routine as consistent as possible. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. Above all, my goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.
“Erin was amazing. As a first time user of these services, I was hesitant to utilize these services. I also did not want to board him with limited time of attention. Erin was very responsive and provided numerous photos and feedback every single day without prompting. Duke loved his time spent there and would highly recommend utilizing Erin in the future.”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I’m truly passionate about. I have lifelong experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with special needs, including administering medications and following detailed care instructions. I understand that every dog is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and personality to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, or just relaxing with plenty of attention, I’m happy to provide the care they need. I treat every dog as if they were my own, and my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your best friend is in loving, reliable hands. I currently work part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your furbaby! I am available throughout the week and weekends. Drop off and pickup will be anytime between 9:30am and 12:30pm or after 4:30 pm I have a fenced in yard for your pup to play in as much as he/she wants to. I also have outdoor kennels available for the pups to stay in during the day(weather permitting) or indoor crates when I am away for work(up to 4 hours). Tie outs can also be used if your pup is an escape artist. Boarding pets will be kept separate from my own pets unless otherwise agreed upon.
“Christi was such a pleasure to work with and my dog was very well taken care of, and happy and healthy when we picked him up. He stayed active and Christi sent me lots of pictures of his adventures! Recommend and would definitely book again.”
“She was awesome. Very friendly and her dog was very playful and friendly. Her family is awesome with animals and my dog loved them. She sent photos while we were gone of my dog playing with the others. Would highly recommend her”
“Wendy took AMAZING care of our pup!!! She sent us tons of video of him during our trip and she even sent him home in a fancy outfit with a goodie bag!! I could not recommend her more!”
