Gina was AMAZING. This was my first time leaving Benji with a sitter but Gina quickly calmed my nerves. She sent pictures of Benji doing various activities and one of his favorites was cuddling with her. I 10/10 recommend for your fur baby needs when you need to be away but want them to still feel loved!

This was my first time leaving my dog with a sitter. Stacey and her family took care and treated my dog as if she were their own. Stacey stayed in contact throughout the entire time an updated me if needed. My dog came back in the same condition if not better then when i dropped her off. Would defiantly use again and recommend.

When our dog sitter canceled the day before we were to leave, Someone recommended Rover. I was hesitant, but I found Sabastian and was happy with his bio. He responded immediately and agreed to get our dog the next day. I am so thankful to them. He and his family took such good care of our baby. He sent us pictures throughout the stay and reassured everything was great and our dog was enjoying thier dogs. Our dog was well taken care of and healthy and happy when we picked him up. Sabastian was very welcoming and kind to us and our dog and I am so thankful that we found him. We will definitely use him again.

We’ve used Sally’s dog sitting services a few times now and are ABSOLUTELY thrilled with her care of our Henry! She’s really great about following any instructions you leave with her, she communicates updates/pictures of your pet while in her care and she’s super responsive when you message her via the Rover app. More importantly, our Henry loves her! So thrilled to have found Sally!

This was my dog Wyatt’s first overnight experience with someone other than a family member, and I’m so glad it was with Katelyn. My somewhat anxious boy was instantly at ease in Katelyn’s comfortable home, and quickly warmed up to her, her daughter, and their dog Poky. Katelyn is very very warm and responsive, and kept us up to date with frequent text messages and photos. Wyatt had the time of his life! I would definitely entrust him to her care again in future!

She is a natural and treats your pet like they are part of her family. Highly recommend her if you have a small breed pet!

Michelle was very pleasant and patient with my dog, who is not accustomed to people outside of our family. When we arrived, she made sure she understood all of our preferences regarding eating, sleeping, and socializing. Throughout our time away, she sent pictures and text updates on how my dog was adjusting. When we picked Max up, he was clean, calm, and doing great overall. A great experience!

ABSOLUTELY amazing while caring for Dior I was sent updates on my fur baby and videos and pics and could tell she loved the time spent while away from home. I found this app on short notice of having to leave town and I didn’t think I would find someone so I want to thank them personally and definitely bring Dior back if needed ❤️

About: What sets me apart is the personalized care and attention I give every pet. I work from home full-time, so your pet won't be left alone for long periods and will have plenty of companionship, supervision, and opportunities for potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and preferences so they feel comfortable and secure while you're away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing nearby while I work, I'll make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. I also know how important it is to stay connected while you're away. You'll receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and in good hands. My goal is to make your pet's stay feel like a home away from home while giving you complete peace of mind. I work from home, so I'll be available all day to supervise and care for your pet. We'll enjoy playtime throughout the day, along with morning and evening walks, weather permitting. I have a fenced-in yard and a 6-year-old female American Staffy named Lilly. Lilly is very social and gets along great with other dogs and even cats.

Kelly was AMAZING!!! Her timing was prompt & she went above and beyond my expectations. Working long shifts in healthcare leaves me so stressed knowing my furbabies are at home alone & knowing they got such good care from Kelly was a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. Seriously, I can’t thank her enough. For taking the extra time to walk her, making sure she got multiple potty opportunities, and the photo updates. Highly recommend 🤩

About: I’ve taken care of cats for neighbors and friends while away or just for a drop in. I do love a soft little kitty, and totally understand the boundaries of a kitty who might be more on the shy side! I have a medically fragile dog and have had senior pets throughout my life, so I am aware of signs of distress or discomfort in animals and comfortable communicating that with owners and seeking help quickly.

About: Though I grew up with both dogs and cats, as an adult I am 100% a cat lady now! I’ve had my best girl, Ophelia, for 5 years now and I’ve also cared for many friends’ and family members cats over the years as well. I understand that every cat has their own personality and needs, and I always take the time (and precautions) to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for- whether they’re playful and energetic or quiet observers. And of course, I know cats deserve just as much attention as dogs!

He also had lots of fun with his new friend Baxter. Now we can rest assured that our baby is in great hands when we go on a trip in a few weeks.

About: I have taken care of pets for 15 years. I am always that one friend or family member that will always come take care of the pets while they go vacation. I am experienced professional dog trainer so I am comfortable with most breeds and have great leash handling skills. I am currently working part-time from home and have a very flexible schedule. I can be home 90% of my day. Lots of walks for my pups. I usually go to the gym for morning workout after early morning walks with my pups. I have a yard but it is not fenced. My dogs get multiple walks a day and they love to lay out on the fenced in deck. I normally crate my dogs when I leave the house. Depending on what your pet is used to just let me know. I am sure we can make it work!

Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I’ll treat your pet like family while keeping you updated every step of the way. My goal is to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Hi! I’m an active, outgoing person with a flexible schedule and a genuine love for animals. I currently work in hotel sales, where I spend my days building relationships and taking care of people — something I’ve naturally done my whole life with both people and pets. I’ve always been around animals and have over 10 years of pet care experience. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping your pet company, I love making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m reliable, attentive, and will treat your pets like they’re my own! When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I know pets feel most secure in familiar surroundings, so I take the time to understand their schedule, personality, and needs. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, litter box care, medication reminders, or simply providing companionship, I make sure they receive attentive and loving care while you’re away. I’ll also provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for.

About: Hello y’all! I am very experienced in training dogs and caring for dogs, cats, and most other animals. I have a lot of knowledge about dog and cat health, along with other animals (reptiles, birds, horses, etc.), and different breeds. My prior amazing pittie, Bo Peep, was deaf. Thus, I know ASL commands and signs from training her myself. So, I am able to work well with other deaf/hard-of-hearing animals. I’ve been lucky enough to have and/or care for all sorts of animals throughout my entire life, especially growing up as a feral child (haha) in Florida. I always tried to bring animals home (often to my mom’s dismay), and I’ve worked with various animals (e.g. birds of all sizes, reptiles, cats and dogs especially, horses, amphibians, fish, and some other farm animals). I have no problem giving medication or following any medical-related plans. I work with pets of all ages. I look forward to meeting y’all! I am currently a therapist that works remotely from home, so I am able to be with fur babies in-between clients throughout the day to meet their needs. I am very active, so plenty of walks for pups! With dogs and cats, I try to provide them with as much mental stimulation that I can (and maybe a few treats).

About: Hi I’m Jianna I have lot of experience with all kinds of animals, I am a big animal lover. I do live in an apartment but we do have a dog park and I work from home so we’ll have plenty of walks during the stay. I also am a pawmetto foster so I frequently have other dogs and cats that spend time with me for a few months at a time. I have an active 5 year old so we’re mostly outside and doing outside activities and wouldn’t mind friends! I work from home so I’m home all day on Weekdays and stay busy on the weekends but usually outside at a park or the lake or a pool not many places when your baby will need to stay back for we love a good car riding buddy I’ve had many dogs and cats as a foster so I’m also really good at following care instructions so whatever your preference is for your fur baby I can more than likely accommodate

Daniel has a very calm demeanor and sweet disposition- Bentley became attached immediately since he is rather calm. Daniel took exceptional care and responded quickly to my silly check-ins during the day. I highly recommend Daniel!

About: I have experience working in animal rescue, fostering, basic training, and complex medical maintenance for both dogs and cats. I have fostered over 100 dogs in ten years and owned two heart dogs and three beloved cats, all who had complicated medical conditions that required daily management. Pets are family to me and deserve the best care and consideration. I am currently on sabbatical and looking to fill my days with happy time with pets though walks, play, and just quality time. I’m available every day 11 am to 6 pm. Two days notice is required for both dog walking or dog check-in requests. I have a fenced in back yard and crates, along with dog safe toys, doggy gates, and non slip mats throughout the house for better traction for older dogs.

About: I’ve grown up around all types of pets and absolutely love all animals! We’ve had an array of animals in our house growing up such as a German shepherd, parakeets, love birds, hamsters, gerbils, hermit crabs, and Jack Russell terriers! I now own three dogs! We have a super sweet labrador, a frenchie, and a boxer-pit mix. We love taking our big dogs on hikes and out to socialize any chance we get! Daily walks and outside time are a must for our pups and we love every minute of it. I have experience with IVDD and surgeries to follow with my French Bulldog. With that being said, I have first hand experience with caring for a medically fragile animal, administering medications, and seeing signs of discomfort in animals. As a pet owner and lover I know the importance of making sure you have someone you trust with your animal babies! I’m transitioning from being in the classroom full time to substitute teaching once school starts back up. I am free for the summer and will have flexibility in my schedule, especially for afternoons and evenings. I take my own pups out for a walk at least twice a day morning and evening. They also have outside time at least 3-4 times a day for 20+ minutes. If you choose to have your pet board with us we have a full privacy fenced backyard. We also have crates and gated off rooms to separate pups in they need a break or some down time. Our neighborhood is very walkable and private with low traffic.

About: I’ve been surrounded by pets my whole life - from dogs of all breeds to guineas pigs and cats. Growing up, I eagerly took part in caring for them and have gained a lot of knowledge and experience in pet care. I have also provided pet sitting/walking services to friends and family. Fun fact: I loved animals of all kinds so much as a child, that I became a vegetarian at 13 years old! And I have been one now for over 15 years! I have a very flexible schedule and more than happy to work with you to accommodate your pet’s unique needs, routines, and preferences to ensure they are comfortable and cared for! When caring for your pet in your home, I prioritize their safety, respect your space (and theirs), and strive to create a calm, trustworthy environment where your pets feel secure and loved.

About: Let me look after your furry friends when you need assistance. I love all pets and will provide them with the attention and nurturing they deserve while you're away. Having been a pet owner of both dogs and cats for most of my life, I consider them part of the family. As such, I always ensure they receive affection and companionship while under my watch. Senior pets hold a special place in my heart; I understand their need for gentle attention and additional assistance, and I'm committed to ensuring their comfort and well-being. I have a calm and patient personality that pets find easy to connect with, but I also make sure they follow your rules! I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend soon! I am recently retired from education, and own my own business that allows me to work from home, so I'll have plenty of time to devote to taking care of your pets! I will happily take care of your pets in your home so their routines remain in place as much as possible. To ensure I know all the ins and outs of your pets needs and they meet me with you around first, I do request that we have a meet-and-greet before the first time I care for your pets.

I've also cared for friends’ and family members’ cats, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of animals. Whether it's playtime, walks, or cuddle sessions, I love making sure pets feel happy and loved while their humans are away. :) I work mostly evenings at a restaurant so I have a pretty flexible schedule. The shifts are only about 5 hours long so I am very available to care for your animals in between. I am a very neat person, I always leave everything as I found it or better. I know how particular pets can be, and when owners are away it’s very important to keep their routine so they don’t feel uncomfortable or upset. If there’s any special thing I would need to do to reassure your pet, I’m happy to do it!

I am a remote freelancer who works my own schedule so I am completely flexible in my pet care schedule. Whether your fur-babies are independent kids who need only a daily walk, or they're needy lil' nellies who want to go potty umpteen times a day. I'm a reliable source for care. I provide care exclusively in my clients' homes, where pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I know that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their schedule, preferences, and personality to make their time away from you as stress-free as possible. As a pet owner myself, I understand that some pets can be anxious, reactive, or take a little longer to warm up to new people. I'm patient, attentive, and respectful of each pet's individual needs, whether that means energetic playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking closely to their routine. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and loved while you're away, and to give you peace of mind through regular updates and photos.

About: My best friend of 15 years and her family have two wonderful dogs, a doodle and a lab who I have taken care of so many times. I even watched the doodle when she was just a few months old for about a week during a snow storm while her family was on vacation. They’re a handful but so much fun. I have also cat-sit for up to 3-weeks on end. Giving medicine, checking for packages, and updating if anything seems off. I am a graduate student with very flexible hours. I am happy to spend time with your pet while I study or just for personal therapy. I will make time for animals no matter what. I go above and beyond noting things like if the house temperature is uncomfortable for said pet. I keep them under constant supervision and won’t leave them alone for more than a few hours unless discussed otherwise. I am very thorough and will take extra time to make sure each pet feels comfortable and safe with a new person around them. I know what it takes to be patient with pets.

When our dog sitter canceled the day before we were to leave, Someone recommended Rover. I was hesitant, but I found Sabastian and was happy with his bio. He responded immediately and agreed to get our dog the next day. I am so thankful to them. He and his family took such good care of our baby. He sent us pictures throughout the stay and reassured everything was great and our dog was enjoying thier dogs. Our dog was well taken care of and healthy and happy when we picked him up. Sabastian was very welcoming and kind to us and our dog and I am so thankful that we found him. We will definitely use him again.

This was my dog Wyatt’s first overnight experience with someone other than a family member, and I’m so glad it was with Katelyn. My somewhat anxious boy was instantly at ease in Katelyn’s comfortable home, and quickly warmed up to her, her daughter, and their dog Poky. Katelyn is very very warm and responsive, and kept us up to date with frequent text messages and photos. Wyatt had the time of his life! I would definitely entrust him to her care again in future!

I work from home full-time, so your pet won't be left alone for long periods and will have plenty of companionship, supervision, and opportunities for potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and preferences so they feel comfortable and secure while you're away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing nearby while I work, I'll make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. I also know how important it is to stay connected while you're away. You'll receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and in good hands. My goal is to make your pet's stay feel like a home away from home while giving you complete peace of mind. I work from home, so I'll be available all day to supervise and care for your pet. We'll enjoy playtime throughout the day, along with morning and evening walks, weather permitting. I have a fenced-in yard and a 6-year-old female American Staffy named Lilly. Lilly is very social and gets along great with other dogs and even cats.

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was little. I’ve taken care of, feed played with and walked family and friends dogs and always made sure they were safe I’m currently not working so I have time to play and walk with your pups. I am able to board any day of the week at anytime! I do not have a fenced in yard but can assure you that your pups will be safe at all times. I have an older dog (8 yrs) who is the absolute best with other puppies!

Assatta was amazing I am so grateful for her! She treated my dog like her own and that's all I ask for. She made sure to keep me updated with videos and pictures. I will definitely be booking again!

Very friendly, lots of pics and updates, and most important... They were patient with my spoiled mutt. They were just as friendly as they were professional. Definitely recommend them in high esteem.

Kathy was terrific with our pit bull. He's super friendly with people, but sometimes needs a minute to warm up to dogs. Kathy did a wonderful job letting him get adjusted to her animals. He made great friends, got tons of playtime, and lots of love! She also sent us daily texts with pics and videos. Would absolutely board with Kathy again.

Kelly was great! She kept us up to date during our weekend away. We have a senior dog and two puppies and she had no issues handling both ages that require their own special needs. Would definitely recommend and use her in the future!

I chose Lexie as my dogs sitter the first time I used Rover. I felt very comfortable with her during our first meeting. I appreciated how she took notes to make sure our baby would be safe in her care. We appreciated the updates and pictures while we were out of town. We will continue to use her for our boarding needs. She is fantastic!

This is my first time using a private sitter & it went okay. My dog Kobe is adjusting to being home, I’m military & Aiko was very patient with him despite his not so great behavior towards others dogs. She kept me updated with detailed information about his behavior along with pictures for the weekend stay. She gave my dog the attention he needed & let me know what she thought would be best for him moving forward. You should definitely book her if you need a dog sitter.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life and couldn’t imagine it any other way. My cat Chanel has been with me for 5 years and my cocker spaniel Bentley for 1 year. I’ll treat your pets like my own with plenty of walks, cuddles, and love. I know how important it is to feel at ease when you’re away from your fur babies and I’ll make sure they’re happy and cared for. I have a flexible schedule and am able to go home throughout the day and check on your pet if I’m not already home. I am usually home all weekend and if not then your pet is welcome to join my activities! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a pet‑friendly apartment community with three dog parks, giving plenty of safe space to run and play. I’ll always keep a close eye on them, provide fresh water, and make sure they feel happy, loved, and cared for in a secure environment.
