Highly-rated overnight sitters - Wayne
“Michael (and Joe) took great care of Brandy! It was Brandy's first time at his place, and even though she gets stressed out and shy in new environments she felt comfortable, ate her food, and gradually opened up and felt more confident in the house. Michael was very responsive throughout the weekend and flexible with dropoff and pickup hours.”
“Rachel was a fantastic pet sitter for our frenchie Josie. She was so attentive, kind, understanding and thoughtful. Josie was welcomed and felt right at home immediately. I would recommend Rachel to anyone who needs exceptional care for their dog.”
“Have booked twice with Aimee now, she takes wonderful care of my dog. My dog is excited to go see her, and Aimee provides great updates. I’d refer Aimee to anyone looking for great pet care.”
“I can’t recommend Alexandra enough! She has been taking care of my dog, Milo, for quite some time now, and I always have complete peace of mind knowing he’s in her care. She and family truly treat Milo like he’s their own. He’s always so well cared for, loved, and honestly spoiled in the best way possible. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the animals she watches, and it shows in everything she does. She’s reliable, kind, attentive, and always keeps me updated, which means so much. Milo is always happy to see her, and that says it all. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, she’s the one. I wholeheartedly recommend her!”
“Uklu and Andrew are the best! Our dog zuzu had such a great time with them. She was active and happy when we brought her home. We can’t thank them enough for providing for Zuzu so wonderfully!!! We will continue to have Zuzu stay there for sure!”
“As always, Hollie was terrific- she took Daisy’s unexpected UTI in stride and administered the meds we had shipped to her. She is a loving caretaker and our dog is happy and comfortable with her.”
“Yuiko did an outstanding job with Riley. He had a great time. Their family treated him just like their own! Will definitely book with her again!!!!”

“I was looking for a place to board my brother's dog for a few days while he was in the hospital. Thalita responded to my request quickly and was very friendly. She and her family welcomed Baby and were wonderful throughout the whole process. If you have the need for a caring person to watch your dog, I could not recommend Thalita more. You would be happy that you did.”
“Dolly and her three boys took exceptional care of Parker. She has three boys and a large fencing backyard that allowed him to play amd explore in a safe environment. When we arrived, parker was immediately snatched up by her by one of her two younger sons who promptly began playing with him, pampering him and loving him. Dolly said her sons even “argued” over whose bed he would sleep in. Parker came back a happy camper and made three great buddies along the way. Additionally, Dolly kept constant contact with me and sent pictures over the course of the two days. I would highly recommend this wonderful family to look after your pet whenever you need someone to watch them.”
“I needed a last-minute dog sitter, and Emelie was everything I could have asked for and more! She was extremely responsive, flexible, and communicative! I greatly appreciated that she kept me updated with pictures and texts during my trip. Will definitely book with Emelie again!”
“Amy was fantastic - we instantly felt comfortable with her husband and her (and, more importantly, so did the dog!). She was very detail oriented, sent pictures throughout Champ's short stay and made sure Champ got plenty of exercise. I also appreciated her policy not to take multiple dogs at once. We will definitely be repeating with Amy - the whole experience was great!”
“I had a 10/10 experience with Rebecca! She was incredibly welcoming and kind to my standard poodle Sasha, who can be standoffish with new people at times, but seemed to have fully made herself at home, looking very comfortable and content in practically every photo I saw. Sasha definitely has some quirks and fears, but Rebecca was very patient and generous with her space and time to make Sasha feel safe. Would definitely book again!”
“Allison and the girls took such great care of Cookie! As first time Rover users, Allison was patient with my husband and provided regular check-ins, updates and pictures! It was clear Cookie had a nice time and was much less stressed than when we typically board her. We look forward to booking again with Allison and Kevin in the future!”
“Absolutely amazing. My little dog had the greatest time, got a lot of socializing and exercise everyday. I boarded him for a week and would absolutely do so again.”

It gave me great peace of mind knowing they were so well cared for. I would happily book Emma again and highly recommend her!”

Daphne was prompt on her arrival times and all was in order with the house. We would definitely have Daphne care for Rosie again.”
“Joanna is amazing!!! She took such good care of my two cats while I was overseas. I have a very shy Siamese mix who typically takes awhile to warm up to newcomers and she took to Joanna almost immediately, I’ve never seen her be so affectionate with someone other than me!

They sent regular updates and photos, followed all feeding instructions perfectly, and really took the time to make my animals feel comfortable. I came home to happy, relaxed pets and a tidy house. I couldn’t ask for anything better!””

“Alexander is amazing! We are so thankful that he was able to watch our two cats while we were away! He always sent us updates and they never missed a meal!!

“Rachel is living and caring with our Puppy! I enjoy getting the snapshots and videos of them playing or walking together. It is such a comfort knowing that he is with Rachel and loved and cared for when i am away on business. He absolutely loves being with Rachel and has made himself super comfortable in her home!”
“I am so lucky to have found Erica on Rover. She is amazing and my doggies absolutely had a fabulous time with her ! She is pleasant and kind and after the first visit they got excited when they saw her for their second day. Going to work is so easy now that my guys have Erica caring for them. We are going to continue with her for as long as she will have them.”
“Emelie and family were a godsend as we were looking for a last-minute sitter for our beloved pup Duke. We were traveling from VA to PA for a track meet and we weren’t quite sure what to do with our 6.5 month old puppy Duke as non-service animals were not allowed in the stadium. After reaching out to a few sitters on Rover, Emilie quickly responded with her availability and was very accommodating! Duke seemed to enjoy himself, and that made us feel good. If for whatever reason we happen to be traveling back to PA, we will definitely consider booking with Emilie as our pet sitter. Not only was she SUPER friendly and loving to our Duke, but she was VERY responsive!”
“Martha has been so lovely! She takes amazing care of Mochi. Mochi can be a stubborn boy who refuses to go on walks and Martha handles it so well and encourages him or gives him plenty of pets! She sends cute photos of mochi and I know he is being well cared for! Martha is very genuine. Thank you so much Martha”
“Ulku and Andrew were amazing and accommodated my last minute request. They were friendly and quick to respond. They sent me pictures of Skye and I felt safe leaving Skye at their place!”

Also my husband works from home, so the house is always attended👍 I have been fortunate to have met the most wonderful pet parents who now have been repeat clients for years. A favorite feature is our backyard, located on a one acre property is fenced in and it's as large as a small park, this allows for plenty of healthy exercise and fun play or simply chilling at a favorite spot. I walk the backyard every day to ensure there is no debris that can cause harm to the dogs. Also the yard is kept leveled so that there are no accidents when running.

About: About Me Hi, I’m Ann! I work from home and truly enjoy having a furry companion by my side throughout the day. I know how important it is for dogs to get daily walks and fresh air—so I make sure every pup in my care gets plenty of exercise and fun, rain or shine. Honestly, I think I enjoy our walks just as much as the dogs do! Why Choose Me? What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong passion for animals and the deep bond I’ve always shared with my own pets. I grew up surrounded by animals, which taught me to understand their needs and emotions on a deeper level. I believe every dog deserves personalized care, lots of affection, and a safe, loving environment. My Home I share my home with two friendly cats who prefer relaxing in their own space when we have visiting dogs. This helps keep the environment calm and comfortable for everyone. To make sure each guest gets the care and attention they deserve, I only board up to two dogs at a time. Your pup will enjoy a cozy home setting, plenty of personal attention, and lots of cuddles. I can’t wait to meet your dog and welcome them into our little family! ~Ann I am self employed and work full time at home ensuring that your pet will get the attention they deserve and need. They have easy access to the backyard as well. The backyard is fenced in. I have never allowed my dogs to sleep on my bed nor sofa but they have their own ottoman to stay close to me while I watch TV and the comfort of a dog bed and/ or crate. My home is peaceful ☺️
“Julianna is so sweet! She lives my Paulie and I adore seeing Cooper and Betty Boop and meeting the other pups Juliana is caring for! The comfort of having Juliana care my pup the way she cares for her own is awesome!!”
About: I grew up with dogs. When I was 18 I co-adopted two pitbulls who lived out their lives with me. After college, I volunteered for Monster Milers taking shelter dogs from Street Tails Animal Rescue out for runs to help them burn energy and become more adoptable. My wife and I have adopted three times. A fawn pug who lived until 9 years old, a black pug who lived until 17 years old, and a Alaskan Malamute/Husky/Amstaff mix (107lbs) that lived until he was 13 and we recently lost. I'm good with all furry friends big and small and adjust my approach based on the dogs energy. I currently have a ton of flexibility outside of my kids to help with your pups, but generally, I'm home a lot and very active so lots of room to get your pup out for long walks and exercise/stimulation. I do not have a fenced in yard, and always keep my dogs on leashes until they were absolutely ready to listen solely to my commands. I use a gentle leader that helps minimize impact on their throat and also is very effective with pulling, but can be flexible to your sitch.
“Yuiko is a terrific pet sitter! She gave me Milo’s update very often. This was so helpful for me have peaceful mind as this was my first experience with Yuiko.”
“Tina is great! We wanted to go to some museums and can't bring BinBin, and Tina was great throughout communications and took good care of BinBin! She kept me posted with videos and photos of BinBin. BinBin had a great time with Charlie, Tina's pup, too! I'll def consider Tina again if I ever need daycare in the Portland area!”
“Clarissa is extraordinary! She watched my Bambi girl. I got updates, the cutest photos and videos of Bambi having the most fun. I feel so lucky to have found her and her family for dog care. All the dogs are treated like their own, like family! She has a huge, secure fenced in yard, a doggie door where the dogs are free to go in and out as they please, and a HUGE heart for all the dogs under her care. I really can’t say enough about Clarissa and her family! When it came time to pick up Bambi, she didn’t want to leave! That says it all!!!”
“Electric & Crescent are awesome. Odin had a great time with them and their lovely cats! The communication was great, they're easy going, they sent pictures constantly on how Odin was doing and I couldn't be happier to see him enjoy playing and cuddling with them. Odie is definitely coming back! Thank you!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and am also comfortable caring for cats. I’ve provided pet care for neighbors and have experience managing different personalities and energy levels. What sets me apart is my hands-on experience working at a veterinary hospital and a zoo, where I learned safe handling, how to recognize signs of stress or illness, and how to maintain proper care routines. I’m patient, attentive, and adaptable, and I’m especially comfortable with active dogs as well as providing gentle care for younger or more sensitive pets. I am also quite the green-thumb if you need your plants watered!🌸🪴🌼🌱🌻 My schedule is very open and flexible, which allows me to easily accommodate pet care throughout the day and week. I’m available for morning, midday, evening, and weekend visits, and I can adjust my routine to meet each pet’s specific needs, including walks, feeding times, and check-ins. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in my client’s home. I am very attentive and detail-oriented, and I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, and any special instructions. I ensure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure and supervise pets closely during play. I pay close attention to behavior and can recognize signs of stress or illness. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep routines consistent to help pets feel comfortable and safe.
“Met Alexandra for a Meet & Greet and she immediately put my mind at ease! I have a senior dog and a young one and from the moment she walked in she showed that she understood their varying needs even by just greeting them! She listed to all my notes and concerns and made me feel like she would care for them as if they were her own! She is a true dog person and that’s the type of care giver every dog owner needs!”

“We’ll be booking Daphne again! She was able to help us out to walk our two senior dogs with short notice. She was quick to respond to messages, arrived on time for the walk, and went above and beyond walking our newer adopted dog whose leash manners are a work in progress. In the app, we got a picture and update after her drop in/walk. Our dogs were clearly in very good hands. Can’t ask for anything more than that!”
“Sofia is so wonderful with our dog! She provides great updates on their walk and always takes photos. It’s nice to see when I’m traveling or away for the day. Thank you for taking such great care of our dog”
“Julia helped us out at very short notice and took our two dogs out for a walk whilst we were away for the day. She followed our instructions and we found them happy and safe upon our return”
“So happy we found Erica to help out twice a week taking our energetic dog for a midday walk! She’s responsive on the app, clearly loves dogs, is respectful of our home, and always leaves a picture and update after the walk. We’ve settled into a nice routine and it gives me so much peace of mind while I’m at work knowing Erica will be stopping in.”
“Bona was wonderful and helped us in a pinch. She was great on the walk and very communicative. She was able to manage Elmer, a very high energy trash eating dog. Very greatful and highly recommend!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages and needs. I have a 12-year-old diabetic chocolate Lab who is not just our family dog, but my best friend, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and giving pets extra care and attention. Caring for a senior dog with medical needs has taught me responsibility and how important routines are. I’ve also dog sat for family and friends many times. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I want owners to feel comfortable knowing their pets are getting plenty of care, attention, and love while they’re away. I am currently unemployed, so I have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the time and attention they need throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, feeding schedules, playtime, bathroom breaks, or simply keeping them company, I can easily adjust my day around their needs. In my home or your home, I understand that every pet is different. So I am happy to follow any specific instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, or special care needs. My main focus is making sure your furry friend feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible!

“Kaitlin really came through for me not only this week — where she walked my dog 3x a day— but even more recently for a midday walk at the last minute. For my planned week away, my flight home was canceled and I needed her to walk the dog at night, although we hadn’t planned for that. It felt really good knowing that my dog was in good hands and that he would be able to get some exercise and relieve himself when I couldn’t be there. He gets super excited about his walks and tends to pull a lot in the beginning, until he calms down, and she was able to handle him. He also takes medicine regularly so she was really good with giving it to him in alternative ways. It’s a blessing to be able to leave your pet in the care of someone when they can’t be with you. You need to have confidence in and be comfortable with that person and Kaitlin made me feel both of those things. She is now my go-to dog walker.”

You would be happy that you did.”
“Dolly and her three boys took exceptional care of Parker. She has three boys and a large fencing backyard that allowed him to play amd explore in a safe environment. When we arrived, parker was immediately snatched up by her by one of her two younger sons who promptly began playing with him, pampering him and loving him. Dolly said her sons even “argued” over whose bed he would sleep in. Parker came back a happy camper and made three great buddies along the way. Additionally, Dolly kept constant contact with me and sent pictures over the course of the two days. I would highly recommend this wonderful family to look after your pet whenever you need someone to watch them.”
“I needed a last-minute dog sitter, and Emelie was everything I could have asked for and more! She was extremely responsive, flexible, and communicative! I greatly appreciated that she kept me updated with pictures and texts during my trip. Will definitely book with Emelie again!”
“I had a 10/10 experience with Rebecca! She was incredibly welcoming and kind to my standard poodle Sasha, who can be standoffish with new people at times, but seemed to have fully made herself at home, looking very comfortable and content in practically every photo I saw. Sasha definitely has some quirks and fears, but Rebecca was very patient and generous with her space and time to make Sasha feel safe. Would definitely book again!”
“Allison and the girls took such great care of Cookie! As first time Rover users, Allison was patient with my husband and provided regular check-ins, updates and pictures! It was clear Cookie had a nice time and was much less stressed than when we typically board her. We look forward to booking again with Allison and Kevin in the future!”
“WOW - I don't even know where to start. I've been boarding / working with pet sitter's for over 14 years and Christin is top tier. Not only is her home so perfect for dogs (a big backyard?! such a treat!), her demeanor and understanding of dog behavior makes her one of the best. When we had our meet-and-greet my pups instantly starting showing signs of being relaxed (playing with toys and eating bones which never happens at new places) and kept going up to Christin for pets and love. Christin provided ample updates and photos and was super understanding of the quirks and difficulties of caring for a senior pup. It's hard to leave my 15.5 year old dog but I trusted Christin immediately. I will be re-booking for sure even just for single days for my dogs to enjoy her yard.”
“Ryan B was a great sitter! He took good care of my dog and sent adorable messages and photos throughout my vacation. I would definitely recommend as a sitter as the children were great with my dog also giving him lots of pets and even grooming him one day. Definitely a sitter to choose!”
“Enes and Stephanie were Great. My 13 month Frenchie has alot of energy and can be a handful. They Sent pictures and updates all day long for her weekend stay, we picked her up and shes exhausted. Thanks for a great Stay”
“Nicole was great! She was communicative throughout my pups stay and when I returned home Hoxie was exhausted -- not an easy feat -- so I know that she got plenty of play time with Maeby.”
“Shandara took care of my dog Freckles, as well as another dog, and her own for a few days. She did a meet and greet, sent me updates constantly, and was very professional. I would have her sit again for me.”
“Donte was great with my pup! I was a little nervous to take him to a new sitter for the first time, but the second I met Donte and saw him interacting with my dog all those nerves went away. He, miraculously even got my dog who has a fear of crates to sleep in one! I was blown away. Would definitely recommend.”
“Christine was great! She took Indo on very late notice, and made him super comfortable. Would highly recommend to anyone in the area in need of a responsible and knowledgeable dog sitter!”
About: Ive had been taken care of my past dogs and current dog for almost my entire life. I also take full care of my cat. I work with cats twice a week at a rescue shelter, and I did a short period working a doggy daycare facility. I can work full time during week, during the afternoons. I will be working at my job in the morning but will be fully free in the afternoons. Weekends may vary depending when I get a request. I make sure the pet gets enough play time outside, by either walking or playing with the pet. Make sure that the environment isn’t too loud or overstimulating, especially if there is more than one animal in the house.
“Gregory was very responsive to my last minute request for boarding. My dog is little and anxious, and I was not sure how she would do with another dog as large as Koda, Gregory’s dog. But Koda turned out to be very well trained and had a lovely calm demeanor. Maya was very comfortable and I will definitely be using Gregory again!”
