Highly-rated overnight sitters - Abernathy
“Koda loved his stay with Delaney and had so much fun! He was so excited to see her after the consultation and based off of the many pictures and videos Delaney sent it looks like he had a blast. He was actually sad at home without all of his new friends. Delaney is the first sitter to get Koda to eat his food so he was definitely well taken care of! Thank you Delaney! We will definitely be back!”
“Arianna was wonderful. She took great care of our dogs, sent plenty of photos daily and kept us updated on how they were doing. Highly recommend her and will book her again.”
“Jennifer was amazing with my dog! As was her whole family! Harley can be very shy and alittle feisty sometimes towards people she doesn’t know but the moment I brought her over she was so comfortable with Jennifer and that’s a huge positive when your dog is automatically comfortable with someone also imo! Jennifer updated us daily with texts or pics and the whole experience was just a pleasure overall!! I would definitely recommend this home for any and all pet sitting needs and if I ever need someone to watch Harley again, Jennifer will be the first person I book with! Thank you guys again!!! I appreciate you so much!”
“Wonderful! We were anxious about leaving our dog with a stranger when we went on vacation. Victoria was so warm and friendly, she immediately abated our hesitancy. Our dog lived her best life with Victoria, and truthfully I think doggo would’ve stayed with her forever if given the option. Victoria is highly recommended!”
“Amanda took amazing care of our baby. She took him for walks, was patient with his high energy, and even gave him lots of snuggles! Most importantly, she made me feel so at ease about leaving my pup with someone besides family for the first time. I would recommend her over and over again!”
“She was incredible and took great care of my dog and even helped with a situation beyond that. I would absolutely recommend anybody to her and I personally think extremely highly of her integrity, compassion, care of animals, and the people that own them.”
“We boarded our pet dog (Ty) with Sarah for two nights. She provided us with very frequent updates and ensured that Ty felt like home. Unlike a couple of previous occasions, Ty was so relaxed and happy. Will definitely board Ty at Sarah's place when we are traveling out of town.”
“Debbie was great!! She kept me updated on girl the entire time even though it was Christmas. I got several sweet pictures of girl enjoying Christmas with Debbie. She took great care of girl and I’d definitely bring girl back!!”
“Nadia took such good care of our girl Bella! She kept up updated on her daily routine, sent photos and made sure Bellzy had lots of treats. We did not worry once about our girl. She was in good hands and we will use Nadia in the future! 😊”
“I was worried about finding a sitter for my 1 year old French Bulldog. Hyper active topped with some separation anxiety. Wasn’t long after reaching out that those worries were completely lifted. I would absolutely use Shawna again.”
“Melissa and her husband did an amazing job with Bear. The daily updates kept us comfortable and their dogs were the PERFECT playmates for our little guy. Will be booking them for sure on our next trip out of town! Also, Bear has a strict diet, and they absolutely made sure he ate only the food we provided unlike other hosts in the past. One of the biggest pluses in our book ?”
“They took amazing care of our babies. The videos and pictures gave us peace that they were being well taken care of and were enjoying themselves. I will definitely use them again.”
“Katherine was wonderful. She took great care of Buddy, sent lots of photos and updates, and made sure he felt safe and comfortable. She genuinely cares about your pet and their well being. They couldn’t be in better hands. I will definitely be back!”
“Jordyn and her family watched my dog in their home while I went away for a wedding—I got lots of updates and photos and my dog had a great time! Would recommend to anyone who needed a dogsitter.”

Our dogs stay in a crate when we are not home and at night.

About: We have been doing Rover for a decade, and we love hosting your pets in our home! We have always had pets in our home, they’ve always been part of our life! When families are out of town we think it is very important for pets to be taken care of by someone who will treat them like their families do. We want to provide them with love and care while their families are away and help them stick to their routine so they will transition easily back when their family returns home. We have 1 loving pup in our home. She is very well mannered and loves to have furry friends over! Ellie, our dachshund, lost both her dog siblings over the last couple years. So she is always excited to have playmates to spend time with. One of us is home full-time five days a week and we work part time the other two days. So we will have lots of time to give attention and love to your pets. We will provide exercise and play time as well as snuggle and rest time. We have a fenced in yard with a dog run if dogs need some outside time. We also have a gated area in the house so dogs can have their own personal space to eat as well as sleep at night if needed. We also have a spare bedrooms if your kitties are shy and need their own hotel room!

About: I have cared for dogs for many years and have been a dog lover all of my life. I have three animals ( 2 cats and a dog) who are very loving and caring. If this so happens to be a problem for an owner I have the ability to move my animals in order to care for the owner's dog/dogs. I would walk them everyday because I understand the importance of having daily exercise. Along with this, dog owners will see how happy their dog will be after spending hours with me. There will be plenty of opportunities to have fun with toys and special treats would be in store for those who are well-behaved. I hope that dog owner's will allow me to love their pets just as much as they do. I usually work only four hours a day Monday-Friday which gives me plenty of flexibility to help you with any doggy needs like walks, daycare, etc. I don’t usually go out of town for holidays so I am available during those times. I have an apartment which has a dog park allowing them to roam freely. Also, I live in walking distant to several parks which is always a plus for any dog. In addition, I am a baker who does make organic dog treats for each time the dog is with me. This is dependent on if the owner allows this.

While visiting and taking care of your pets I take pictures and send just about every visit to let you know your pets are doing great and I am always available to call or text if something has changed or updates are needed.
About: I know firsthand that dogs aren't just pets—they are cherished members of the family who make our lives infinitely brighter. When your dog is with me, they’ll be loved, pampered, and cared for as if they were my very own! I have extensive experience watching dogs for friends and family across all stages of life, from energetic puppies who need consistent routine to sweet senior dogs who require gentle care and extra patience. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all shapes and sizes—whether it's a tiny Chihuahua, a cheeky Scottish Terrier, a playful Boxer, or managing a pack of up to 5 large dogs at once! Feeding quirks, medication routines, or unique habits? Nothing is too strange— I’m always happy to accommodate your dog’s specific needs to keep them comfortable and happy. Plus, with my super flexible schedule, I’m readily available for daily walks, quick check-ins, or mid-day play sessions whenever your busy calendar demands. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur baby! Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily life as an active remote worker. I start every morning with an early workout and love staying active throughout the day, which means your dog gets guaranteed, high-quality outdoor time before the summer heat sets in! Because I work from home, my schedule is extremely flexible. Whether your dog needs a mid-day bathroom break, an afternoon walk to help me hit my step goal, or just a quiet companion by my desk while I work, I’m around to give them the continuous care and attention they need. When staying in or visiting your home, my top priority is maintaining your pet’s familiar routine so they feel safe, calm, and loved while you’re away. I will follow your exact instructions for feeding, medication, walk schedules, and bedtime routines down to the detail. Whether your pet loves high-energy fetch sessions, long neighborhood walks, or just snuggling on the couch, I give them my undivided attention. I double-check all doors, gates, and ensure all household hazards are out of reach, and keep emergency vet details on hand at all times. You’ll get detailed daily check-ins with clear photos and updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I treat your home with the utmost care and respect—keeping areas tidy, taking care of mail/plants if needed, and leaving your house just as clean as I found it.

“Koda loved his stay with Delaney and had so much fun! He was so excited to see her after the consultation and based off of the many pictures and videos Delaney sent it looks like he had a blast. He was actually sad at home without all of his new friends. Delaney is the first sitter to get Koda to eat his food so he was definitely well taken care of! Thank you Delaney! We will definitely be back!”
“Arianna was wonderful. She took great care of our dogs, sent plenty of photos daily and kept us updated on how they were doing. Highly recommend her and will book her again.”
“Wonderful! We were anxious about leaving our dog with a stranger when we went on vacation. Victoria was so warm and friendly, she immediately abated our hesitancy. Our dog lived her best life with Victoria, and truthfully I think doggo would’ve stayed with her forever if given the option. Victoria is highly recommended!”
“She was incredible and took great care of my dog and even helped with a situation beyond that. I would absolutely recommend anybody to her and I personally think extremely highly of her integrity, compassion, care of animals, and the people that own them.”
“We boarded our pet dog (Ty) with Sarah for two nights. She provided us with very frequent updates and ensured that Ty felt like home. Unlike a couple of previous occasions, Ty was so relaxed and happy. Will definitely board Ty at Sarah's place when we are traveling out of town.”
“Nadia took such good care of our girl Bella! She kept up updated on her daily routine, sent photos and made sure Bellzy had lots of treats. We did not worry once about our girl. She was in good hands and we will use Nadia in the future! 😊”
“I was worried about finding a sitter for my 1 year old French Bulldog. Hyper active topped with some separation anxiety. Wasn’t long after reaching out that those worries were completely lifted. I would absolutely use Shawna again.”
“Melissa and her husband did an amazing job with Bear. The daily updates kept us comfortable and their dogs were the PERFECT playmates for our little guy. Will be booking them for sure on our next trip out of town! Also, Bear has a strict diet, and they absolutely made sure he ate only the food we provided unlike other hosts in the past. One of the biggest pluses in our book ?”
“They took amazing care of our babies. The videos and pictures gave us peace that they were being well taken care of and were enjoying themselves. I will definitely use them again.”
“Jordyn and her family watched my dog in their home while I went away for a wedding—I got lots of updates and photos and my dog had a great time! Would recommend to anyone who needed a dogsitter.”
“Jillian is the BEST cat-sitter we’ve ever had. My cats love her, she sends me updates daily (sometimes multiple times a day, it can never be too much), and she takes care of them so well. The first time I used Jillian’s services, my girl cat was prescribed a big capsule that other sitters struggled with giving her, and one sitter wouldn’t even try to give it to her. Jillian did so well with giving her the big capsule, and she was able to give her the smaller pill she was prescribed later too. Jillian is very friendly and easy to communicate with and reach when needed. She’s also very flexible with drop off and pick up times. I used her services twice but wish I had found her earlier so she could’ve cat sat more. I highly recommend her! She will take great care of your pets.”
“Paul was a fantastic sitter for my dog! He was very communicative and made me feel like my pup was in great hands while I was out of town. I forgot to pack toys for my dog so he went out and bought him something to play with! I highly recommend Paul for anyone who wants a loving sitter for their pets!”
About: I can take care of the high energy, anxious, storm worriers, medicated, fresh puppies and the elderly. I have 3 large dogs >100lbs as well! I currently am in nursing school Monday- Thursday and work part time in the ICUs. I would love to help care for your babies after class, during the week and on weekends! I will accept last minute drop ins or house sittings when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. I have a subaru outback wilderness suv that easily fits my 3 large dogs. I have two XXL cages and a double fenced yard. I have experience in dog training in walking, trail running, hiking, and other activities like fetching. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them. I would love to be able to take them to the dog park where they can also interact with other animals while you're away! I have three puppers of my own - a brown Labrador Retriever mix, German Shepard, and a black golden retriever mix puppy who are full of energy. When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable!
