This was our first time using Rover and we had the absolute best experience! Ali was wonderful, our pups were so happy. They ran and played and swam and had the best vacation. She loved on them like they were her own and sent photos and videos throughout the day. Ali was also super accommodating with drop off and pick up times, she very responsive and friendly. I would absolutely recommend Ali and we will definitely be using her again.

Mark’s knowledge of dogs is apparent. He had watched our dog while we were out of town and one other time. She was very well cared for and Mark let us know how she was doing throughout the week. We will definitely use him again!!

Gus was so happy! It was good to see Gus was getting so much love and attention while we were away — and lots of outside time. And he even had a spa day and came back clean and white. Thank you so much! It was so appreciated to get the daily updates and pictures! We didn’t have to wonder how he was doing at all— we could see he was doing well! ❤️❤️❤️

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 9 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.

I recently left my 2 yo dog, Wilson, in the care of Hector and his sister for 10 days while I was traveling abroad, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! Hector provided good care, love and attention. I received regular updates and pictures, which gave me peace of mind while I was overseas. It's clear that Hector and his family are true dog lovers, and I highly recommend his service to anyone in need of a reliable and caring host. 5 stars ⭐️!

About: I have grown up with dogs, owned (and currently own) a dog, and absolutely LOVE them as my own. We have an enclosed dog run with a dog door onsite. They are spoiled beyond measure and treated better than a family member. I have a flexible work schedule which allows me to spend quality time with your pet! I am available on weekends and holidays, as well as weekdays depending on notice. I have a fenced in dog run with a dog door. I can easily crate your dog if that is helpful to his/her routine. I do have 2 dogs onsite but can keep them separate if needed. We live on 3 acres and walk our dogs every day! They are Family!

Kim did drop-in visits at my home. My two older kitties are both rescues from a shelter and both are very shy. Kim was able to win them over in a short time. I knew they would eat the food she'd put out but I was glad to hear they let her pet them. I'd definitely recommend Kim for any type of petsitting!

This was my first time using Rover and I am so happy that I found the app. Nathan was fantastic! He came several days before our booking date to meet our three cats, Lucky, Squeak, and Caramel. Our cats took to him right away, so I knew he was going to be our sitter. I enjoyed the daily pictures of our cats and they looked so content. Nathan will definitely be our sitter the next time we need one. Thanks Nathan for a fantastic job!!! Jo Anne Pullins

About: I grew up around a variety of animals and had three cats during my childhood. Two passed away from old age, and one is still living with my mother, he’s very loved and well cared for. I’m comfortable with daily cat care tasks like litter box cleaning, feeding routines, and spending quiet time helping cats feel safe and relaxed. I also volunteered with the Humane Society of the Black Hills, where I gained experience administering medications to cats. As a nursing student, I’m attentive to details, follow instructions carefully, and feel confident supporting pets who need extra care.

About: With 15 years of pet care experience, I've built a reputation as the sitter friends and family turn to when they need someone they can truly trust. Growing up surrounded by dogs and cats gave me an intuitive understanding of pet behavior, and over the years I've cared for countless breeds - from gentle giants to tiny lap dogs, anxious rescues to energetic puppies. What makes me different is my versatility and adaptability. I'm equally comfortable managing multi-dog households, caring for dogs and cats simultaneously, and adjusting to each pet's unique personality and needs. Whether you have a senior dog requiring gentle, patient care or a high-energy breed that needs extra playtime, I know how to read their cues and provide exactly what they need to feel safe and loved. My experience with diverse breeds and household dynamics means I can handle whatever curveballs your pets might throw - from managing pack dynamics to understanding breed-specific behaviors. I take pride in maintaining each pet's individual routine while ensuring harmony in multi-pet homes. You'll receive regular updates and photos throughout my visits, so you can relax knowing your furry family members are not just being watched, but truly cared for by someone who understands that every pet is someone's beloved companion. I have a flexible weekend schedule that allows me to prioritize your pet's needs. Having recently moved to western South Dakota, I'm excited to build lasting relationships with local pet owners and become a trusted part of this community. My open availability means I can easily accommodate various scheduling needs - whether you need early morning walks, midday check-ins, overnight stays, or last-minute care. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet sitting never feels like work to me. It's actually the highlight of my day! I'm happy to work around your pet's established routine and can be flexible with timing to ensure they receive consistent, reliable care. Whether your pet thrives on a strict schedule or is more go-with-the-flow, I'll adapt to what works best for them and your family. I believe the key to excellent pet care is maintaining consistency with your pet's established routine and household rules. When caring for pets in your home, I take detailed notes about their daily schedule, feeding times, favorite spots, and any house rules—whether that means staying off certain furniture or having free rein of the couch. Your pet's comfort stems from familiarity, so I ensure that nothing changes from their normal routine. I provide the same level of attentive care - regular exercise, plenty of affection, and constant supervision. I also maintain open communication throughout, sending updates and photos so you can see how well your pet is settling in and enjoying their time with me.

Franklin had such a great time with Susan!! We were traveling through the area and needed some dog care while we went to an event. We were very confident with Susan watching our best bud. She communicated with us the entire time and was even willing to take him a half hour before scheduled when our plans changed at the last minute. We would definitely contact Susan if we were ever in the area again! Recommend 10 out of 10!

About: I have been a dog owner/lover for the past 10 years. My experience extends to small dogs, large dogs, and reactive dogs. My property is 7 acre of quiet farm land in Hermosa. I have 2 dogs myself and they are very friendly and playful with other dogs. There would also be the option to keep our dogs separate if your baby is not comfortable with cohabitation. 1 acre fenced in yard as well as someone home at all times to let your baby out. I work in town on the weekdays but my partner works remotely meaning someone would be home at all times to let out the dogs. We have a 1acre fenced in yard the dogs can hang out in as well as plenty of space in the house. Dogs would be free to hang out in the house with no real restrictions unless otherwise stated by the owner.

Best Rover sitter we’ve had! Tara kept in touch the whole time and sent pictures so we didn’t have to miss our pooch so much. We could tell our pup had been well cared for and comfortable when we picked her up. Thank you Tara, you’re the best!

Caitlin was super flexible when we traveled to the Black Hills and we had conflicts that wouldn’t allow dogs. She took great care of our beagle mix and was open to to the one-time walk and dog care. I would recommend her if you are traveling to Rapid City and need great short term care.

Nathan is phenomenal with Billy!! He not only takes him for walks but he helps him learn tricks and shows Billy all the attention he so craves. He is a puppy so patience is necessary and Nathan definitely has that. Nathan is great with communication as well, always letting me know how Billy is doing and if he sees that maybe something is off with Billy health wise. I definitely trust him to take great care of my pup. :)

About: Experience. I am active and reliable! Looking to build client relationships and trust! New to Memphis, but not Tennessee. I am from Nashville, and just moved back to Tennessee after living in Laramie, Wyoming. I have a full time job and live a full life here. I hold a degree in Child and Family Studies with a minor in ASL from the University of Tennessee. I grew up with and around dogs all my life, specifically German Shepherds and Akita's. I do not know everything about dogs, but I want to know everything about your dog. Working with Rover is just a fun way to make new furry friends and get to know more people in Memphis. Being there for your pet while you're week got unexpectedly busy or you're away overnight provides relief for you and your furry family. Schedule. Currently working full time, but can be flexible for your pet. I can use my lunch break for walks and medications. I feel like this is something that is relative to each pets schedule and owners request. Safety and Trust. Your dog is family and will be treated as such. Unless I have specific directions or know that your pet is allowed to eat or do something not listed, it does not happen. We have fun while following the rules. Unless it is an EMERGENCY, your pet does not get in the car with me. I trust myself, I do not trust other drivers.

About: I grew up with dogs and I currently have a black lab who lives with my husband. I’ve dog sat for friends and family throughout my life. I love to run, walk and be outside in nature. Dogs are definitely considered family to me! I am a travel nurse from South Dakota but currently live in Des Moines. I work night shift so during the day I’m around. My days are generally grouped together but letting pets out or walking are both doable! I can do overnights and watch for periods of time it will just depend on my schedule. I always want to respect the animal and let them come to me to meet and get to know me first. I love to play fetch or with whatever toys they like.

About: I have lived in households with pets my entire life as well as taken care of countless peoples animals while they have been busy or out of town. I go to the dog park just about every day and am well versed in how animals interact with each other and how to make them as comfortable as possible. I am back in the Black Hills until September when school starts up again for me! I am very free and would love to watch some pets of all kinds. I have my own dog and I can have them hang out or she can stay at home just as easily!! I care for all pets in my home and in others the same way, with love and respect. It’s incredibly important for the animals you are dealing with to trust you and I work to ensure that trust at all times.
