“Tara was great with Trapper. She was super flexible and easy to work with and sent several pics so we knew he was having fun and being well taken care of. We weren’t sure if he’d be ok playing with her dogs, but they were super sweet and immediately accepted him as part of the group. He had a blast while we were away.”

Sean was quick to respond, easy communication, sent a couple of inside pics with Jasper and updates, no hiccups with drop off or pick up. We would come to Sean again in the future - thank you!”

“Pepper took great care of our toy poodle, maltipoo, and chihuahua for 3 days and sent a lot of pictures of them having fun and relaxing.

We have taken our pups to many different people through Rover, and Pepper is one of the best! Highly recommended!!”

“Angela and Rick went above and beyond in caring for our little Bean. They are an incredibly kind and genuinely sweet couple. We truly appreciated the regular updates and adorable photos they sent us throughout Bean’s stay. We wouldn’t trust anyone else with Mr. Bean—Angela and Rick will always be our first choice! I can’t recommend them highly enough. Thank you for loving our baby as much as we do!”

“I highly recommend Debbie and Chris! What amazing, caring people. They sent texts, picture and even videos. I was concerned that my small dog would be afraid of their dogs, but she fit right in. Your pet will be safe with Debbie and Chris and well cared for.”

About: I grew up on a farm caring for all types of animals. I’ve always had to make sure all of them were feed and water. I’ve dog sit for family friends before while they went out of town and i had to go to their house and feed, water them, take them out to play and use the bathroom, gave them baths if they need them. I took care and dog sit all kinds of animals and sizes, from puppies to older dogs, and even cats too, all up to farm animals. I’m a stay at home mom to a 2 year old. I have a 3 year old male dog that’s unaltered. I’m available anytime to dog sit or board. I have a house with a nice little yard for your fur babies to run and play! I’m always going outside every 2-3 hours almost to walk my dog. Of course I will walk your dog first because I know my dog can hold it until afterwards
“Emily was awesome! She kept me updated daily with pictures and text messages. I felt very comfortable with leaving my dog while on vacation with Emily. I'm very pleased and will use her for the future.”

“Sara was amazing! She had great communication and you can tell she lives what she does. She was patient and living to my VERY hyper and anxious Lab Cooper. The pictures she sent daily were great and showed what an amazing time he was having in her care! I would absolutely book with her again and strongly suggest you do too!”

“Ms. Raquel provided exceptional care for our puppy, Jackson. She offered regular updates with photos and videos during his stay. We were a bit hesitant in using this app, but I'm so glad we did. We are extremely pleased with her services and would rate it higher than five stars if we could.We appreciate her dedication and look forward to utilizing her services again.”

“Ash was fantastic with my Pomeranian Ava! Planning a wedding is stressful and Ash watched Ava the weekend we got married. We weren’t worried about her at all. She sent us pics of her and Ava was a happy girl. We would highly recommend her to watch your pets! Thank you Ash!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️”

“Margaret went above and beyond for our drop-ins. During our travel, she assisted with providing insight on some home issues occurring in our absence. She provided pictures and updates as needed when various service providers remedied the issues. All the while taking exceptional care of our babies. She sent so many pictures and videos to keep us updated on their wellbeing. Additionally, she changed the two liter boxes, refilled water fountain, and feeder while we were away. Will definitely book with her again!”

Kathleen keeps me updated, is very thoughtful, and goes above and beyond to make sure everything is taken care of. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”


About: I've had my own cats and various foster cats in my home since I was 14. I know how to give them space, listen to what they want, or give them all the snuggles and playtime they want. I also have experience medicating a range of cats, when needed. For any boarding services, I can give your cat a whole room to themselves, with a comfy bed and window watching fun.

“This was my second time with Tatum and she was great! Always making sure my cat was well taken care of and even bringing some of her own treats when I ran out. She’s lovely and definitely recommend her!😊”

“Roman and Justine did an excellent job taking care of Farrah. They were very communicative and responsive to texts and sent great pictures. Would certainly book again!”

About: If any of my friends and family had one to say about me, it would be the fact that I love animals and caring for them. I am always the first person they call whenever they need a petsitter! I have always had pets in my life ever since I was a kid and have had a large range of experience with different pets such as hamsters, guinea pigs, reptiles, kittens/cats, puppies/dogs, fish, goats, donkeys, and horses. I love animals of all species, sizes, shapes, and colors and am dedicated to giving them the best care possible. Although this site is designed more for dogs/cats, I am comfortable caring for all types of pets you may have! My most recent animal quest was fostering 5 feral cat/kittens, rehabilitating them, and finding them quality homes after providing them safe harbor for 4 months. I also have a lot of experience in the horse industry, I've worked at an equestrian center and owned horses myself for about 12 years of my life and know all of the ins and outs to equine care. Dogs are also a breeze for me, I have experience caring for all life stages from puppies to seniors. My dog Luna is only 2 years old herself so I went down that road of leash & potty training myself not too long ago! My family also has a 10 year old senior Labrador Retriever, Scout, that I often care for as well. Overall, I would like to say that I am very empathetic towards animals and have a magic touch when it comes to providing for their needs, comfort, and happiness. I would love to share my love and hospitality with your pets as well! I currently work part-time and have frequent availability to spend time with your beloved pets! I'm currently available all day on Mondays, anytime before 3 on Tuesdays, and all day on Wednesdays. However I do work in a restaurant, so my weekend availability does fluctuate each week. But don't worry, I will do everything I can to work with you and make myself available when you need me! I live in a 2-story townhouse with 2 spare bedrooms, so needless to say there is plenty of room for your pet. I have 2 cats Sushi and Kumi, that are dog and cat friendly, as well as a 2 year old Lab-Catahoula mix, Luna, who is super friendly and playful towards other dogs and cats as well! She loves playing with others, so your dog definitely wont be lonely! I will disclose that I'm aware that some people aren't comfortable with leaving their pets with other animals they aren't familiar with, so if that is the case then no problem! I have a garage and 2 spare bedrooms that I can keep them separated in while also giving them all the attention they require. I do not have a yard unfortunately, but there are a few walking trails in close proximity my neighborhood that I take my Luna for walks on all the time! There is also a dog park 10 minutes away that I can take your pet to at any time. I am fully capable of accommodating for all of your pets needs, I have an automatic water bowl that is cleaned and refilled daily, multiple food bowls, toys, cat trees, treats, and leashes, as well as a large crate to house your pet as deemed necessary. If it is required that I care for your pet in your home, I will assure you that I am great at following specific care routines and fully understand why they may be necessary.

“As always, my kitties were loved and cared for beautifully while I was away. Magan always sends pictures of the cats and gives a brief description of her visit and interaction with both cats. I never have to worry when Magan is on the job!”

“Brianna was absolutely amazing with our cat Toby. We got several updates, and felt at ease knowing he was in good hands. She even gave him a goody bag for his stay! So sweet and will definitely book her again!”

“Joslyn took care of our 2 senior cats for 2 weeks with daily drop-in visits. She was outstanding. Joslyn is very diligent and caring. I would recommend her to everyone and I will not hesitate to rebook the next time I travel.”


“Lena went the extra mile to make sure my cat was fed and taken care of during the recent hurricane power outages. She deserves special recognition for her efforts and ability to overcome obstacles.”


About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently live with a cat and own my own dog! I love spending time playing with cats! I commonly cat sit for my roommate and have plenty of experience with feeding and cleaning litter boxes and would be happy to do so! I have had three dogs in my life, all medium to large sized dogs. I currently have a 2 year old Anatolian Shepard mix that has a very sensitive stomach so I have experience working with special diets and giving medication. I’ve also lived with geriatric dogs and puppy’s and feel comfortable taking care of them while you are busy! I can handle dogs that pull and have experience with dogs that like to run and am very careful! I treat all animals like my own and would never want anything bad to happen and therefore am very cautious when taking care of your animals! If you have any questions about my experience with animals or special requests for you animals please let me know!

I have a fenced in back yard, with tires/a tire swing, 24/7 surveillance as well as plenty of toys and water always available. I provide blankets, bowls, toys, a tv with relaxing music, and daily pictures with updates! 🥰 My property is completely fenced, offering ample space for your pup to frolic and play freely! Indoors, they'll receive the same love and care as if they were my own pet. Unless you specify otherwise, your dog is more than welcome to join me on the bed or sofa during our downtime—because they're truly part of the family.

About: I have had dogs my whole life and I really love all animals. I have cared for many different breeds, including two deaf dogs and one 3-legged dog. I am patient, reliable, and I am comfortable with all disabilities and needs. I am quick to understand what makes your dog comfortable. I have also fostered dogs while in college and have had experience with many puppies. My goal is to make sure that your dog feels comfortable and well taken care of while you’re away. I am completely free until I leave for school on August 9th! I have a part time job where I work some Sundays at the Farmers Market from 8am-1pm. I am extremely flexible. I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment for pets. During drop-in visits, I ensure dogs receive regular exercise through walks and playtime, tailored to their energy levels and preferences. For weekend care, I create a routine that mirrors their home life, incorporating their favorite activities and ensuring they feel secure. My goal is to provide a loving, attentive experience that keeps your dog happy and relaxed.

About: I have had dogs since I was little and currently am mom to a 15-year-old Chihuahua named Charlie. She is a sweet little old lady who needs lots of attention and special care. And don’t worry, no matter how silly your requests may seem, I’m on board! Charlie once decided she would only eat if fed by hand, so, I’ve been there. :) I currently teach online so I am WFH with lots of flexibility for pet sitting and home visits. I live near Clemson University so it’s an easy stop if you are on your way to campus! I have a large fenced-in yard and an old lady Chihuahua who is mostly deaf and blind and sleeps all day, so she isn’t much of a playmate. However, with her refusal to take walks (by laying down on the ground until I carry her home), I am looking forward to having a walking buddy in the neighborhood!

“Communication was excellent. This was my first time using Rover for doggie daycare. There were multiple people on site who were helping care for the dogs during the day. My dog was able to play with other medium-sized dogs. She definitely got enough exercise, and she is a higher energy dog breed (Husky). They also sent me a picture of her playing with some other dogs. And, they have air conditioned space available indoors for hotter days. We had a good experience and I would recommend them!”

I take the time to get to know what the pets need instead of taking a one size fits all approach. I’m available all week, whatever time. I’m not working any other jobs so I’m available whenever pets need it or pet parents want an extra check in or reassurance. I make sure they’re comfortable, whether that’s in a crate or just on a bed, constantly check their food and water, and make sure they’re good and tired before I stop playing with them.

I work from home so I have plenty of time and availability to spend and care for your fur baby while you’re away!

About: Hi everyone! ❤️ I have hands-on experience caring for pets through raising my own and helping family and friends with theirs. I’ve always been around animals and truly enjoy caring for them.

I also make sure your home is left just as I found it. 🐾 For dog walking, I focus on safe, enjoyable walks at your dog’s pace, making sure they get exercise while staying comfortable and secure.

“Joslyn is such a gem! We are so grateful to have found her to walk our dog. She is always professional, very communicative, and, most of all, she takes care of our doggo and loves on her like she is her own. Joslyn is flexible and adjusts to our dog’s unique needs and preferences. She knows how to read our dog’s body language to know what she needs and when. I highly recommend Joslyn!”

I’d love to chat and see if I’m able to make it work for you. I currently am not able to host in home boarding due to being in an apartment at this time and not having the adequate space and yard.

About: I’ve had large dogs since I was a little girl so I feel at ease when first meeting them (and they sense it). I’ve been both a dog & a cat mom for over 25 years and would much rather spend time with them over most humans! I’m currently working part time on a side business startup so my schedule is pretty open during the week as needed. I would be available most anytime Monday-Fri I am just getting started on pet/house sitting, currently have my own cat inside my home with plenty of spaces for her to climb and be happy! However, I will be offering to come to your home rather than mine to care for your pets/home

“Tara was great with Trapper. She was super flexible and easy to work with and sent several pics so we knew he was having fun and being well taken care of. We weren’t sure if he’d be ok playing with her dogs, but they were super sweet and immediately accepted him as part of the group. He had a blast while we were away.”

“I had to book a sitter last minute and didn’t expect to find one. Instead, I found the perfect sitter that Iggy had a blast with! Iggy is very energetic, but she got all of her energy out here!”

“Nicole was fantastic! Amelia loved her stay with you! Thank you for taking good care of my fur baby!! Nicole was very communicative, sent lots of good cute pictures! Thank you, I appreciate you!”

“Our first Rover experience turned out well. Sean is clearly very good with dogs and our Jasper went right along with him. Sean was quick to respond, easy communication, sent a couple of inside pics with Jasper and updates, no hiccups with drop off or pick up. We would come to Sean again in the future - thank you!”

“Pepper took great care of our toy poodle, maltipoo, and chihuahua for 3 days and sent a lot of pictures of them having fun and relaxing. We could tell she spent a lot of time with them and gave them a lot of attention because they took to her well and wasn't in a rush to leave to go home!. We have taken our pups to many different people through Rover, and Pepper is one of the best! Highly recommended!!”

“Ann is a very, friendly, warm and accommodating person. A perfect dog sitter. My lab Marcy had a wonderful stay at her lovely home. We received numerous updates, photos and videos of Marcy during her stay. I highly recommend her!”

“I highly recommend Debbie and Chris! What amazing, caring people. They sent texts, picture and even videos. I was concerned that my small dog would be afraid of their dogs, but she fit right in. Your pet will be safe with Debbie and Chris and well cared for.”


About: I grew up on a farm caring for all types of animals. I’ve always had to make sure all of them were feed and water. I’ve dog sit for family friends before while they went out of town and i had to go to their house and feed, water them, take them out to play and use the bathroom, gave them baths if they need them. I took care and dog sit all kinds of animals and sizes, from puppies to older dogs, and even cats too, all up to farm animals. I’m a stay at home mom to a 2 year old. I have a 3 year old male dog that’s unaltered. I’m available anytime to dog sit or board. I have a house with a nice little yard for your fur babies to run and play! I’m always going outside every 2-3 hours almost to walk my dog. Of course I will walk your dog first because I know my dog can hold it until afterwards
“Emily was awesome! She kept me updated daily with pictures and text messages. I felt very comfortable with leaving my dog while on vacation with Emily. I'm very pleased and will use her for the future.”

“Sara was amazing! She had great communication and you can tell she lives what she does. She was patient and living to my VERY hyper and anxious Lab Cooper. The pictures she sent daily were great and showed what an amazing time he was having in her care! I would absolutely book with her again and strongly suggest you do too!”

“Ms. Raquel provided exceptional care for our puppy, Jackson. She offered regular updates with photos and videos during his stay. We were a bit hesitant in using this app, but I'm so glad we did. We are extremely pleased with her services and would rate it higher than five stars if we could.We appreciate her dedication and look forward to utilizing her services again.”

About: I have always lived in a house filled with animals inside and out. We primarily had dogs for pets and would usually at least have 2, from puppies to seniors I’ve loved and cared for all sizes and would love to care for your fur babies as well! There is no size too big or too small, I adore all very much and know how worrying it is to leave your pet in someone else’s care, I assure you they would be loved very much while in my hands! I work from home so I have plenty of time and availability to spend and care for your fur baby while you’re away! I do have my step children every other weekend so communication will be key if your pet is not child friendly and if your schedule will work for me, but I am open to working with you as much as I can! I currently have 2 indoor dogs, both crate and (mostly) potty trained. I have a mid sized boxer and a small mix breed, they are both girls that are dog and kid friendly and as sweet as can be. I have plenty of yard space(not fenced), a quiet road to walk them on, and a runner for solo outside/potty time. I do live in a dog neighborhood with lots of distractions so your fur baby would be kept on a leash at all times when outdoors

About: I have always had dogs and can't imagine my life without them. I have a special love for large dogs and currently have a 6 month old Great Dane. I have raised and loved several other dogs throughout my life including Great Danes, German Shepherds, and a Rottweiler. I would be grateful for the opportunity to share my love with your fur baby, large or small. I currently work from home and I am available Monday through Saturday from 7:00am to 7:00pm. I have a Great Dane puppy so pet care in my home is around the clock. I have a large fenced backyard and climate controlled basement along with an active Great Dane puppy to keep your fur baby company. Every day will include outdoor play, weather permitting, and indoor activities catered to your pet.
“Many thanks to Kristen for being available on short notice after my Dad passed away. Knowing Piper would be well cared for was a comfort to me during a difficult time. Piper is always excited to see Kristen that lets me know he is loved by her.”

“Makayla was an amazing sitter. She was very informative about my dog. She sent me pictures and my dog even had an issue while in her care and she was very understanding about it and she handled it very professionally. I recommend her 100%”

“Zoe did a great job looking after Lew while I was out of town! She kept me updated and sent lots of pictures! She even gave me a report card of Lew’s behavior during his stay. I will definitely rebook with Zoe again!”
