“Jessica was very easy to communicate with, has a wonderful home and family. She provided frequent videos , photos and texts updates as requested. Would feel very comfortable leaving my pet with her in the future !”

“From the first meet and greet, Brooke has been so nice and definitely exudes love for the dogs she cares for. During my dog's stay there were some behavior issues which Brooke handled exceptionally well. I got daily updates and many times more than once a day which eased my Mama-heart tremendously. It's never easy leaving my kid with others. I am very impressed! My dog told me she enjoyed staying with Brooke also. :) I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”

Cindy W.

“Corinna took excellent care of Wilson. Highly recommended!”

“Brittany gave AMAZING care for our two pugs! Between the daily pictures and very happy demeanor of the dogs when they picked them up, it was obvious that they were well cared for!”

Chris R.

“5 STARS for Ariel, who provided extraordinary TLC for my rescued pup. She went the extra mile to provide daily photos and updates of his play time. She even let him sleep with her. She took him everywhere, including on a tour to see the neighborhood Christmas lights. I'd give her 10 stars, if that were possible.”

Linda R.

“Everything was fantastic! Alston was great with Buddy and I know he had fun. He can be shy around new people but he settled in great. For sure will have Buddy stay again. -Jason”

Jason E.

“Maria was responsive to our texts, flexible, followed all our instructions, very prompt, and sent us nice photos of Riley during her stay. It was Riley’s first time away from home, she thoroughly enjoyed her time with Maria & Sandy. Based on our great experience, I will be using Maria’s services again the next time we need to leave Riley with a sitter.”

Kendall K.

“Jaiden was so great and welcoming to Loki! She was so nice and sent adorable pictures. Loki got along well with her dog, and came back happy and tired. We are just traveling through, but would definitely use her again if we are in the area!”

Sarah F.

“Our pup had a great day with Susan while we were out and about. She was very welcoming and provided lots of updates, including photos and videos. We were very glad to have a safe space for our pet for the day and felt lucky to have found Susan. She was also very understanding and flexible with our plans and went above and beyond.”

About: I'm an active gal who loves the companionship of a pooch while out and about. I love taking dogs on long walks or hikes through the woods or just down the city blocks for a quick leg stretch (and a bathroom stop). I'll be attentive to the needs of your dog, making sure they get plenty of activity, are well hydrated, and fed appropriately. While I don't have a dog of my own currently, I was a dog walker when I lived in New York City and I volunteered for two years with Border Paws Rescue in Rapid City caring for 5 - 10 pups for their pre-bedtime outings. I'm comfortable working with and providing a safe environment for the most goofy and social as well as the most solo and independent pups. I'm happy to accommodate any special needs you and your pup may have. I'm prompt and reliable. I hope to meet you and your pup soon! I work full time, but have flexibility to do bathroom breaks over lunch for kiddos that need more frequent outings. I can take pups on walks in the morning or evening depending on their activity needs. I have a small fenced in yard that is available for outside hangs. I am patient and kind and love to meet the needs of each pup where they are at. I have volunteered in a rescue and am comfortable around dogs of different temperaments.

“Sent updates and was very flexible to accommodate my schedule. Her dog was super sweet and my dog loved playing with him all day!”

Gabrielle K.

“We loved having Margaret stay at our home and watch our Westie. She is exceptionally professional, punctual, friendly, caring and an all-around awesome person. We greatly appreciated her clear communication. Margaret texted us regular updates and photos. She took great care of our pup, following all of our intricate care instructions. She also kept the house in perfect shape. A++ experience”

Sonja and Thanh V.

“Thanks again for your kindness and care given to Tank while we were away. We know he considers you his "bud" and he says "thank mew".”

Sue G.

“Five stars! Jaiden was absolutely lovely helping me understand the Rover process. My cat came back relaxed and happy! She was an absolute lifesaver in this heat. Would 100000% book again and highly recommend.”

About: While I’m newer to caring for cats, I’m excited to provide them with the same love, patience, and attentive care that I give every animal. I understand that every cat has their own unique personality and routine, and I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to check in multiple times throughout the day, giving your cat plenty of attention, fresh food and water, litter box care, playtime (if they enjoy it!), and companionship. As a pet owner myself, I know how hard it can be to leave your furry family member behind. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind, knowing your cat is in loving hands.

“My dog liked Jessica right away. He is a nervous dog, but was not nervous around her and he was happy when we picked him up. Jessica was very helpful and didn't mind introducing my dog to her cats and seeing how he was with them. Great experience!”

Carly B.

“Aimeejoy was a transparent and confidence-inspiring host, which meant a lot to me as a new Rover user. The photo updates were much appreciated, as well as Aimeejoy’s brief tour of her home and its occupants, so I would know where Cooper would be during his stay, and with whom. Her attention to my comfort assured me that she would provide the same care for my dog during his stay.”

Becky H.

“Gio had a great time with Caroline and her house today: following her around the yard while she planted, and getting loves and a nap in the house. I would definitely have him come again. And he got a cute bag, and a dapper tie.”

About: My experience with animals is life-long. 💕 I am that person who understands animals and knows how to give them the space and attention they need to feel safe and loved. I have personally owned cats, dogs, hamsters, rabbits, geckos, and birds. A little about me: I am active and love to go for walks here in Rapid City. If I’m at a party, I’m the person who is hanging out in the kitchen with the cat or the doggo. 💕 I’m currently working at home full time on my computer, in an apartment in downtown Rapid City - able to take short breaks throughout the day. My office job workday ends at 3:30pm MT then I am free to give special 1-1 time or walks. I am in a large modern apartment with big windows, lots of space to play, snooze, or just hang out with me while I work on my computer. I do not have any children or pets in my home. I am close to the Hotel Alex Johnson and the Hyatt Place hotel.

“We were so very pleased with the care that Jaden gave Polly. Polly liked her right away and Jaden was very attentive and kind. I would recommend her to anyone.”

Roni B.

“I believe Bodhi loved his time with Brittany, despite being ready to leave when I picked him up (he has seperation anxiety). I'm looking forward to Bodhi becoming more and more comfortable with her when I use her again for boarding :)”

Nakita M.

“Susan is not only an EXCELLENT sitter but a great woman. She cared for our puppy for an entire day and a half day. Her home is warm and safe. Don't look any further, Susan is #1. We will definitely call on her again.”

Roger H.

“Margaret was great hosting our dog during the visit to Custer! Communication was smooth and she provided frequent updates with photos. Would definitely recommend”

Denys C.

“Kim was excellent! Our girls immediately made friends with her. Certainly put us at ease by sending us pictures and info about their walks. This was our first time using Rover and we will certainly use Kim again when we are back in the area.”

About: I have extensive experience in animal care, having grown up rehabilitating, caring for, and training a wide range of animals, from small squirrels to large horses. With several years of experience as a veterinary technician, I am deeply passionate about animal welfare. Over the past several years, I have also provided pet sitting services, caring for both young and elderly animals, as well as those with special needs. I am highly comfortable and confident in administering medications as needed as well as adhering to any specific dietary guidelines. I am a stay at home mom to my 11 month old son, so I have lots of time in my schedule to keep a close eye on your pet and give them as much attention as possible while you’re away! I have a fenced back yard which is perfect for playtime or just to hang out and get some sun! My own dog loves to run around up and down the hill in our yard! I also have a large dog kennel in case that is at all needed.

“Matilyn did a great job walking our dogs! She also let me that our female dog was showing signs of a UTI. Took her to the Vet the next day and sure enough, our dog did have a UTI! We would definitely rebook Matilyn!”

About: I have experience caring for pets of all sizes, from 10-pound lap dogs to 100+ pound gentle giants. I’m comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and just about any furry friend in between! Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to check in on your pets multiple times throughout the day, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, potty breaks, exercise, and love. As a fellow dog mom, I know how stressful it can be to leave your fur baby behind. That’s why I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch, daily walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, my goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away—so you can enjoy your time with complete peace of mind. I have a flexible work-from-home schedule that allows me to prioritize your pet’s needs throughout the day. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday potty break, evening snuggles, playtime, or simply checking in for some extra love and attention, I’m available to visit your pet several times a day. My goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Being away from their owner can be stressful for pets, which is why I bring the care to them in the comfort of their own home. I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible, providing familiar schedules, plenty of love, patience, and personalized attention to help them feel safe and at ease. I’d also be happy to schedule a meet-and-greet before your trip so your pet has the chance to get to know me, helping everyone feel more comfortable before the stay.
