“Dana sent daily updates and clearly my dogs were comfortable and enjoying themselves especially her backyard which is entirely fenced in and very spacious. Would use Dana's service again.”
“Absolutely pleased with Rolf’s care. From pictures we could see he was a happy dog. And he got to play outside in a child’s pool and a hosing! His favorite activity. He really didn’t want to come home!”
“Erica, again, took wonderful care of Sully. He comes home happy, tired from romping with his friends and no whining. He ate well, also. We will continue to use Erica’s sitting service whenever she is available. Thank you!”
“Suzanne and her family were absolutely wonderful with Archie. He suffers from separation anxiety when first meeting new people but Suzanne made sure he felt at home in no time. He got a lot of play time and car rides too! Suzanne sent us photos and provided great updates. When we arrived to collect him he was so happy and relaxed and ran back to her kids to say goodby a couple of times. He was a happy dog and I know he will love to go back. Her location is perfect for our random trips to Uncasville and Rhode Island, and Suzanne will be our "go-to first choice for sitter for any future trips!”
“Elizabeth and her family were wonderful with Sully! He received the best care with them. Elizabeth also sent lots of photo updates and kept us appraised of how he was doing while we were away. We would absolutely have Sully stay with Elizabeth again!”
“Sharon was so good to Cane. She sent me pictures daily and kept me up to date on him settling in. She walked him, brought him to the dog park to play and had a very comfortable deck to lay out on. I can tell Cane enjoyed his stay with her.”
“I was super nervous to leave Remy with a stranger for the 1st time, but as soon as I met Christina, I knew she was in good hands. Christina sent me so many pictures and updates of Remy having the best time playing in their amazing back yard, going on multiple (!!!) hikes, and snuggling with their sweet boy Frankie. If you have a dog with a lot of energy - look no further for the ultimate pet sitter! Christina, her husband, and their dog Frankie truly treated Remy like part of their family for the weekend, and I couldn’t be more thankful for finding them on Rover. If I could give Christina 100 stars, I would! Remy and I are both looking forward to her next stay at their home!”
“Karissa is very caring and will love your dogs like her own for the time she has them. She sends pictures at least once a day so you know they’re doing well. My dog had a great weekend while I was away. Would book again if I need it! Thank you so much!”
“Our first encounter with Karen was very calm and she was super sweet. Remi warmed up to her almost immediately. It was a last minute booking and she was able to accommodate a meetup before the actual boarding which I appreciated. She kept us updated with photo and videos of Remi throughout the day. That alone gave me a peace of mind. Overall very pleased and would love to rebook again in the future.”
“Super accommodating with the short notice booking I requested! Steph is bright and friendly. She let me know if there were any issues with my pup. Would book with her again!”
“Natalia was great about sending pictures and videos of my dog while I was away. It was our first time leaving her and she helped put my mind at ease, and it made my kids happy to know their dog was well taken care of!”
“Can’t say enough great things about these guys. All the reviews are correct! Chris and Whitney are genuine, caring, and great communicators. And most importantly, sincere dog lovers. They sent daily updates on our 5 days away from our pup. They went above and beyond to help figure out drop off and pick up arrangements. And they just made the whole process of going away and trusting someone else to watch your fur baby a very happy and comfortable experience. Our pup had a blast, and she is an anxious rescue. She settled right in and was welcomed warmly. From the meet and greet until the time we got her back, you could just tell these guys were genuinely caring and loving humans. And it showed in their care and services. HIGHLY recommend Chris and Whitney. Amazing services, and they made our time away without our pup a very eased and comfortable experience. Thanks guys!!!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Armitage. They take such amazing care of Kharma every single time. Even when Kharma had to stay really late, they were incredibly accommodating and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. It truly gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. At this point, Armitage is the first sitter I call every time without hesitation. I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with Kharma. The level of care, consistency, and genuine love they show means everything to me.”
“As always Brittany is amazing with my very active Husky! He loves being with her and her family and gets plenty of love and attention. My pup feels right at home every time. He cant wait to go back for his next stay.”
“Jessica is a true dog lover. There should be absolutely no worries with leaving your dog with her. Abu is precious as could be. Very detail oriented to make sure taken care of per your instructions with the utmost care. On top of making sure your dog cones first - toys, walks, food amd etc. No hesitations and will be booking again and considering Jessica my dogs go to sitter handsdown. It can be hard to find someone you trust like Jessica.”
“Karen and Chris were fantastic! They are such a nice family that took excellent care of our pup. They were great with communication and pictures. I knew our dog was safe and loved! Highly recommend!!!”
“We are new to Rover. Our experience with Leanne was excellent. She has a calming personality which is great as my fur baby tends to be anxious. We had a meet and greet prior to booking. Booking was easy and communication was great. We received updates and photos throughout our stay. Definitely would recommend Rover and Leanne.”

“Emily looked after our two fur babies for a week while we were out of state. I was initially worried about how they would cope with us being away for an extended period but Emily made sure to ask about their habits to best understand their routines. While we were away, Emily kept me fully up to date and also sent over lots of great photos. Emily worked her magic to win them over and by the end of the week they were in love. Emily is a fantastic cat sitter who kept them well fed and entertained while easing my guilt for leaving them. I returned home to two content cats and their litter box was clean and tidy. I definitely recommend Emily’s services, she's a true cat whisperer.”

About: I’ve taken care of many cats, and co owned a kitten with a past roomate and helped train her. I make a point to feed on time and clean litter boxes daily. I love nothing more than playing with playful cats, or simply coexisting with cats who prefer their space.
“Natalie was very accommodating especially with plans that fell through multiple times on my end. She then allowed a short term notice booking and did an amazing job and was very communicative.”

About: I have always had neighbors, friends, and family rely on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets when they are unable to. I always seek out any opportunity to meet new furry friends, such as volunteering at the local humane society and joining the Rover community. I am out of college for the summer, so my days are mostly available. I do have an obligation on Tuesdays and Wednesdays that takes up the morning and afternoon of those days.

“Margo watched Finn during the day when I had to go back to work. She had no problem accepting the challenge of caring for a young puppy and has many years of experience raising dogs of her own. Finn got along really well with her two dogs and was always excited to go to Margo's house when I dropped him off in the morning. My mind was at ease during the work day knowing that he was in excellent care. She sent pictures and updates of them going on walks together, playing in the yard with her dogs, and working on some of his training. If we ever go away on a trip, I will definitely use Margo to care for Finn again! She truly loves what she does and cares deeply for all her clients' pups.”
“Dana was awesome and Cali loved playing with her pups! She was able to watch Cali with such short notice and took great care of her! She sent me photos and videos throughout the day and kept me updated with how she was adjusting!”
“Our Roo had a wonderful time. We picked him up and he was a very happy and tired boy. Suzanne has a great fenced back yard that is perfect for dogs. She’s very responsive and we so appreciated her taking Roo on fairly short notice. Thank you Suzanne.”
“Eugene was a very communicative and caring sitter. It was clear that he loves dogs and made us feel good about leaving our pup for the first time with a stranger. We would happily have him watch Zuzu again.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Sue! She was so incredibly accommodating and patient with my dog. My dog, Sadie, was uncharacteristically anxious and scared on our vacation. She was having a really hard time separating from me at all. Sue took the time to get her acclimated with the new environment and allowed me into her home to give Sadie time to adjust and get comfortable. She played calming music for Sadie and gave her her favorite treat- peanut butter. By the time we picked Sadie up, she was very happy and more back to herself. Sue gave Sadie so much love and attention the whole time I was at the aquarium. I was able to have a good time, knowing my dog was in good hands. Sue kept me updated on Sadie’s progress with texts, pictures and videos. I am so very grateful and would recommend Sue to anyone seeking a great pet sitter!”

“Shelby was wonderful!!!! She took such great care of Flash and I felt comfortable with him on her care the entire time. She sent plenty of pictures and was super communicative. Flash was tired and happy when we picked him up!”
“Albert and Amanda are just amazing. Miss Nova had a blast visiting for the day and they helped introduce her and socialize with the other dogs. I felt so comfortable leaving her and so proud when we received pictures/video of her playing. This short visit was in preparation for a longer stay down the road and I couldn't have been happier with the experience and all the communication to plan for the stay. I would highly recommend Albert and Amanda as they are extremely knowledgeable. They are not only dog sitters but trainers who are willing to educate.”

Golden retrievers, golden doodles, bernadoodles, and the same fierce cat hazel. I have spent nights at theirs taking care of the dogs as they were on vacation. These were always my favorite times because I have never had a pet myself but I consider theirs my own.

Depending on the baby’s schedule, sometimes my husband does the visits for me or we all go together with the baby in a carrier— let me know in advance if you have any issues. Being a mother is my full time job, so my schedule is very flexible! Feel free to inquire about a date that is marked unavailable. I take into consideration what each pet needs during my visits, whether that’s a long walk, a few rounds of fetch or just some cuddles.

I have been a dog lover ever since I can remember. Growing up, I was lucky enough to have dogs as part of my family.

Through my experiences, I have gained valuable insights into the unique personalities and needs of different dog breeds. I have learned how to read their body language, anticipate their behavior, and adapt to their individual quirks. I understand the importance of exercise, mental stimulation, and socialization for a dog's well-being, and I always make sure to incorporate these elements into my interactions with them. Overall, my lifelong experience with dogs has given me a deep appreciation for their companionship and a strong desire to provide the best possible care for them. Working from home .

“Maple had been with us for only 3 weeks and it was the first time leaving her for an afternoon. We now believe that she'd like to know when we're planning to go away again (so she can go back to Sharon's house). It worked out very very well. Sharon is calm and more than competent.”
“Elizabeth and her family took such good care of our dog for the day. They provided a wonderful home with spacious backyard for him to run around with their golden retrievers, AND took him hiking in the snow (which our dog loves). We really appreciated Elizabeth accepting our booking request with pretty short notice as well. We definitely recommend Elizabeth!”

Ashlyne responded right away and came over on short notice and walked my two dogs, an 11yrs old black lab and an 1yrs old black lab / Belgian malinois mix. They both liked her and went walking with her with no hesitation. Plan to use Ashlyne again and highly recommend her.”

She was able to schedule a meet-and-greet on short notice and was very thorough collecting the care instructions for my two large dogs and three cats. She was so patient with my very large and active Labradoodle and St. Bernadoodle. My dogs seemed very attached to her quite quickly and she did a fantastic job with them.

About: I’m a 41 year old professional who loves animals. I have a 4 year old cat of my own and have always wanted a puppy as a child. Animals are loving and calming to me. I help care for them they help me. I will dog walk which keeps them happy and me active. I will drop in on cats and dogs to feed play with and help go to the bathroom. If it’s the right fit for your family and pup I would stay 1 night a week and definitely weekends overnight while people are away or traveling. I am an open communicator, reliable, respectful, trustworthy professional. Please get to know me so I can get to know you and your animal has the best experience possible. I currently have lots of availability and I would be my pleasure to walk and check in for your pups and cats several times a week.

About: I've had at least one dog in my house since I was in first grade. My first dog is no longer with us however, I currently have a 9-year-old black lab and a 7-month-old silver lab. My dogs love to go on hiking trails, and with your permission, I can also take your dog to new locations. I unfortunately don't have experience with other people's dogs except for friends and family. I'm currently working part-time, so I'm very flexible with times. I will put my dogs' needs first, however, making sure I have time to give them the exercise and attention they deserve. My dogs are my best friends. I always show love and respect towards them. I also understand how a dog's life can be boring sometimes. Giving them a new environment to sniff out creates a happy and exhausted pup. I try to take my older dog on a new walk/hike every week to give them an adventure and something to look forward to. I'm hoping to provide the same for your dogs. I am also a runner, so I wouldn't mind running alongside your dog. Walking/hiking/running, whatever you prefer.

“We left our babies in very good hands with Morgan. While we were on vacation, she came every day and picked them up and took them for a nice long walk on some trails our dogs love. Every day we got an email when she picked them up, photos and comments from Morgan and an email when she dropped them off. We could even see the route they took and the distance and time of the walk. My elderly mother said they returned tired and happy. We would highly recommend Morgan. She is responsible, punctual and most importantly a dog lover. Our girls were in caring hands. We plan on reaching out to Morgan the next time we travel.”

Being homeschooled for a majority of my childhood, I was able to learn about taking care of these needy animals at such a young age. We have fostered dogs and cats of almost all ages, from newborns to adults. Even during the years, my family and I fostered these animals, I’ve had multiple neighbors at a time rely on me to visit and walk their dogs while they’re at work. That is how I got my first job at 11 years old. I’m out of school for the summer, so I am free practically whenever your pups need me! I can drop in/walk daily or weekly, whatever works for you! With my school and work schedule and the living situation I’m in, I don’t currently offer boarding services, but that may change in the future!

“Dana sent daily updates and clearly my dogs were comfortable and enjoying themselves especially her backyard which is entirely fenced in and very spacious. Would use Dana's service again.”
“Absolutely pleased with Rolf’s care. From pictures we could see he was a happy dog. And he got to play outside in a child’s pool and a hosing! His favorite activity. He really didn’t want to come home!”
“Erica, again, took wonderful care of Sully. He comes home happy, tired from romping with his friends and no whining. He ate well, also. We will continue to use Erica’s sitting service whenever she is available. Thank you!”
“Suzanne and her family were absolutely wonderful with Archie. He suffers from separation anxiety when first meeting new people but Suzanne made sure he felt at home in no time. He got a lot of play time and car rides too! Suzanne sent us photos and provided great updates. When we arrived to collect him he was so happy and relaxed and ran back to her kids to say goodby a couple of times. He was a happy dog and I know he will love to go back. Her location is perfect for our random trips to Uncasville and Rhode Island, and Suzanne will be our "go-to first choice for sitter for any future trips!”
“Elizabeth and her family were wonderful with Sully! He received the best care with them. Elizabeth also sent lots of photo updates and kept us appraised of how he was doing while we were away. We would absolutely have Sully stay with Elizabeth again!”
“Sharon was so good to Cane. She sent me pictures daily and kept me up to date on him settling in. She walked him, brought him to the dog park to play and had a very comfortable deck to lay out on. I can tell Cane enjoyed his stay with her.”
“I was super nervous to leave Remy with a stranger for the 1st time, but as soon as I met Christina, I knew she was in good hands. Christina sent me so many pictures and updates of Remy having the best time playing in their amazing back yard, going on multiple (!!!) hikes, and snuggling with their sweet boy Frankie. If you have a dog with a lot of energy - look no further for the ultimate pet sitter! Christina, her husband, and their dog Frankie truly treated Remy like part of their family for the weekend, and I couldn’t be more thankful for finding them on Rover. If I could give Christina 100 stars, I would! Remy and I are both looking forward to her next stay at their home!”
“Super accommodating with the short notice booking I requested! Steph is bright and friendly. She let me know if there were any issues with my pup. Would book with her again!”
“Natalia was great about sending pictures and videos of my dog while I was away. It was our first time leaving her and she helped put my mind at ease, and it made my kids happy to know their dog was well taken care of!”
“Can’t say enough great things about these guys. All the reviews are correct! Chris and Whitney are genuine, caring, and great communicators. And most importantly, sincere dog lovers. They sent daily updates on our 5 days away from our pup. They went above and beyond to help figure out drop off and pick up arrangements. And they just made the whole process of going away and trusting someone else to watch your fur baby a very happy and comfortable experience. Our pup had a blast, and she is an anxious rescue. She settled right in and was welcomed warmly. From the meet and greet until the time we got her back, you could just tell these guys were genuinely caring and loving humans. And it showed in their care and services. HIGHLY recommend Chris and Whitney. Amazing services, and they made our time away without our pup a very eased and comfortable experience. Thanks guys!!!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Armitage. They take such amazing care of Kharma every single time. Even when Kharma had to stay really late, they were incredibly accommodating and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. It truly gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. At this point, Armitage is the first sitter I call every time without hesitation. I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with Kharma. The level of care, consistency, and genuine love they show means everything to me.”
“As always Brittany is amazing with my very active Husky! He loves being with her and her family and gets plenty of love and attention. My pup feels right at home every time. He cant wait to go back for his next stay.”
“Karen and Chris were fantastic! They are such a nice family that took excellent care of our pup. They were great with communication and pictures. I knew our dog was safe and loved! Highly recommend!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. Growing up, my mother was (and still is) a doggy foster mom for our local shelter. We constantly had 4-6 dogs in our home, most of which ended up staying long term. I have years of experience caring for multiple dogs and senior care as well! I work completely from home which will allow me plenty of time to attend to your pups needs all throughout the day. I love to jog and hike, so your pup will be sure to get plenty of exercise and outdoor time with me! I provide a safe, calm, and attentive environment for every pet in my care. Working from home allows plenty of supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. While I do not have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised and dogs will always be kept safely leashed. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine, feeding schedule, crate preferences, and any special care instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure.”
“Torie was amazing ! Can't thank her enough for watching my dog Jax for 10 days ! Torie provided excellent communication and plenty of photos from Jax's stay. Would highly recommend to all”
“David was absolutely wonderful with Merci and Dolce. I really appreciated the videos and updates he sent—it made being away so much easier and gave me total peace of mind. It was clear they were having an amazing time, and honestly, I think they may have enjoyed being at his house even more than mine! He was incredibly accommodating, attentive, and genuinely caring. It’s such a relief to find someone you can fully trust with your pets, and I truly can’t say enough good things about him. I would highly recommend David to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter.”
“I brought my beloved Pomeranian Samara to Zoe this week. She spent two nights and when I picked her up she was happy and very tired from all her playing with another little dog. Zoe has a fenced back yard and Samara was free to run unleashed and enjoying zoomies. Zoe kept me updated with photos throughout the stay. I felt so grateful for Zoe's outstanding and kind care. I will definitely trust her again.”
