Personalized care for your dog or cat - Barker

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Barker
“5 stars all across the board!!! Beatriz and Sofia are so kind and sweet to our dog. They always send wonderful pictures and give us daily updates. They are our favorite dog sitters!!!”

“Zulma and her husband were very gracious when I met them prior to leaving my dogs. They both were very gentle and kind to my dogs at that meeting. I felt very assured leaving them in their care. I received a lot pictures and videos of my babies. Although we had to cut our trip short due to incoming weather, I would surely leave my dogs with them another time!”


“Excellent experience. I look forward to reaching out to see if Kelly is available as I know Bailee will receive high quality care. She communicates well and I enjoy the daily picture updates. Highly recommend!”


“So grateful for Cindy being able to watch my fur baby while I was away for a week! She was so sweet and provided updates/pictures almost daily and whenever asked. I wanted my little one to be cared in a homey setting with special attention vs a boarding place where he’s just a number. He looked so cozy and comfortable! Will definitely be using Cindy again 🤗”

“Great experience and Ruth and would gladly be a repeat customer. She did a great job taking care of my two dogs. Ruth communicated great and sent pictures daily and they got plenty of exercise. Overall I recommend Ruth and wouldn't hesitate to leave my dogs with her again.”


“Brittany was awesome! She took amazing care of our pups. She was quick to respond to all of our messages and made us feel very comfortable leaving them in her care. We couldn’t have asked for anything better.”

“Daniela is a fantastic and highly dedicated pet sitter! Her communication was excellent, and she always replied to my messages incredibly fast. Daniela sent constant photo updates throughout the day, from the moment Mía woke up until the last picture before bedtime. Thanks to that updates, I could tell by Mía’s eyes, ears, tail, and sleeping positions just how comfortable, happy, and relaxed she was. Additionally, Daniela perfectly followed the instructions to administer the medication prescribed by Mía’s vet. Daniela gave me immense peace of mind. As an added bonus, she speaks Spanish, which was an advantage for me. I highly recommend Daniela 100%, and I will definitely book with her again!”

“Amy did a great job keeping me updated throughout my whole trip. I tend to keep notifications off on this app but every time I’d check in there would be several photos and videos of her walking, playing and cuddling with my dog Boo. He def came back happier than he has with some other sitters. She was also super close to my area and the drop off was really easy. Highly recommend using her. And it was all for a great price !”

“Donna and her son take wonderful care of my dog at each of her visits. I'm so happy to have found them and know I have a safe place to take my dog when I travel. I love that Donna has two dogs of her own, so my pup gets a chance to socialize on her stays.”

“Mary Lou was absolutely amazing with Mikey. You can tell she genuinely loves dogs and meets them exactly where they are. She was patient, gentle, and so sweet with him, and her updates made me feel completely at ease. Mikey was clearly cared for with love. I will be definitely booking with her again.”


“Our first time using Rover, and we were truly blessed to find Mrs. Lucy! ❤️ She is a top-notch pet sitter who genuinely understands each dog’s personality and gives them the individual attention and care they need. I especially love that she has wonderful, loving dogs of her own who are sweet, gentle, and welcoming. She also offered us a meet-and-greet beforehand, which gave us great peace of mind. Her home is immaculate, cool, and comfortable for the doggies, with lots of toys for them to play with and a beautiful backyard to enjoy. My Bichonpoo is definitely extra 😂, and Mrs. Lucy was so patient and attentive with him. She kept us updated throughout the day with photos 📸 and little updates, which I greatly appreciated. It made being away from him so much easier! You know you made the right choice when your dog is not sure he wants to leave when you come to pick him up! 😆❤️ Even better, his normal routine was completely back to normal the very same day we brought him home. I would highly recommend Mrs. Lucy to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and experienced pet sitter, especially if you’re new to Rover. We are so thankful we found her! ❤️👏🐾”

“Jasmyne was beyond AMAZING 🤩! Words cannot express or explain how awesome she was! She kept my baby entertained and gave her love and affection! My Nova made new friends and the funny thing is she stayed looking out the window for us! Lol she sent pictures and kept me updated constantly! Thank you so much and we definitely will book again!!”


“We are so grateful for Marisa care of our dog Blossom while we were on vacation. Her patience, kindness and attention to detail gave us so much peace of mind. She always understands our dog needs and keeps us in the loop with pictures. It is a such a comfort knowing our dog is in such loving hands.”

“Amazing sitter! Will definitely have her as a sitter again for my Toby’s ☺️ She notified us with our baby and gave him lots of walks! I could tell he enjoyed his stay with her :)”


“Tori is always great with our 8 month old puppy. We left him for almost 3.5 weeks in her care and he looked well taken care of with love and was a happy puppy upon pick up. Thank you for your help. Highly recommended!”


“Alexa was great with my Benji! We enjoyed receiving daily pictures. We had a 6 hour flight delay and she was very understanding. I will recommend her to others and will continue to book in the future.”


“America was amazing! Rover is new to us and we were a little nervous of leaving our pup but America made me feel at ease and was very sweet and loving towards our boy. Thanks America for taking such good care of Teddy!”

“Tia did a wonderful job as previous times taking care of my cat Shirley while we were away for a week on a cruise trip. She also helped with other tasks for us such as taking in our packages and filling water on our Christmas tree. Definitely recommend her!”


“Risi is amazing!! She went above and beyond to care for my cat while I was out of the country. She sent photos, updates, and helped my cat feel safe, secure, and loved while I was away. She is very reliable and teustworthy. I will definitely use her again!!”

“Wendi was absolutely amazing, she’s sweet and collaborative. She took great care of my kitties. Took time to play with them and keep them good company. Her notes were thorough and very reassuring, and her picture were highlights to my day. I highly recommend for any cat parent!”

“Olha is always so good with my kitties. Even my shy girl, Waffles comes out to eat and play and she’s a hider. My cats were consistently fed, their litter was clean and the cats were well cared for. She sent lots of photos and videos so I could see my babies. I will book again in the future.”


“Maria has been a fantastic sitter for our cat! She sent us photos/videos from every visit, made sure he had some play time, and even managed to apply some eye drops when he needed them. We will definitely be booking Maria again when we next go on vacation!”


About: Hi, I’m Mari!🐾 Cats have a very special place in my heart. My oldest kitty, was actually my very first personal pet, and she has taught me so much about how unique, independent, and particular cats can be. Before having cats of my own, I also cared for the cats of family members and coworkers, including some wonderfully spicy personalities! Today, I’m a proud cat mom to two very different kitties, a 9½-year-old female cat and a young male kitten who recently turned one. Having two cats with very different personalities, energy levels, and temperaments has given me firsthand experience with different feline dynamics and the importance of understanding each cat individually. I’ve learned that cats absolutely do not come with a one-size-fits-all instruction manual, and I’m happy to take the time to understand what makes each cat comfortable and how they prefer to be cared for. My older girl was recently diagnosed with arthritis in her hips, which has taught me to be more intentional and patient when administering medication and helping her stay comfortable. I understand that older cats may need a little extra patience, gentler handling, and attention to changes in their normal routines. My youngest has also given me plenty of practice in the art of patience! He can be particularly difficult during grooming appointments, so I’ve had to learn how to slowly introduce him to being handled, groomed, and exposed to things he isn’t naturally comfortable with, including, of course, every cat’s greatest enemy: water. 😂 Through that experience, I’ve learned the importance of slow introductions, positive reinforcement, and never forcing a cat beyond what they’re comfortable with. I’m also a little bit of an adamant litter-box cleaner. 😂 We have two litter boxes in our home that are cleaned twice a day, and absolutely nothing is automated, not even feeding times! I’m very accustomed to being hands-on with my cats’ daily care and paying attention to their habits, appetite, litter-box use, and overall behavior. That said, I know technology can be incredibly helpful, and I’ve done plenty of research on automatic feeders, litter systems, cameras, and other pet-care tools. I’m comfortable learning and adapting to whatever setup works best for your home and your pets. Whether your cat is shy, social, independent, playful, spicy, senior, or somewhere in between, I’ll take the time to meet them where they are. My goal is to make your cat feel safe and comfortable while keeping their normal routines as consistent as possible. And because I know how much peace of mind it brings to see your babies while you’re away, I’m big on communication! I’m happy to send pictures, updates, and little check-ins so you can relax knowing your kitty is being well cared for. 🐾❤️
“Hannah house sat for me while I was on vacation, and she took great care of my kitty! She made sure to play with him and keep him company, and she sent me photos of him. He loved having her watch him! I definitely recommend Hannah for anyone who needs a cat sitter!”

“Ashlie was great caring for our older and very particular cat for 2 weeks. She dropped in and did everything asked of her and took great pictures and provided in depth updates about how out cat was doing. Will definitely look forward to booming with her again.”

“Karina did an outstanding job caring for our cats and went above and beyond throughout her stay. Even when our air conditioner broke during an intense heat wave, she handled everything with grace and professionalism, and left our home in immaculate condition, we couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter.”


“Megan was wonderful! She made me feel very comfortable and that my cats were very well cared for. She did a great job and I highly recommend her, she couldn't have done a better job.”


“In the past 2 years, I've booked Katelyn 7 times for drop-in visits for my cats. She's always done a great job taking care of the boys and I'll continue to request her in the future.”


“Leah is the BEST!! She took such good care of my kitties, even administered meds for one of them, and kept the litter box and eating areas so clean!! Will use her every time I can!! ❤️”


About: I've taken care of both dogs and cats since I was about 10 years old. Growing up, there were also dogs and cats in the home. I volunteered at an animal shelter for 2 years before working there for 1 year. I've pet sat for a family every summer for the past 8 years and worked at a pet boarding place for 1 summer.
“These 5 stars reviews are here for a reason. Kelly is the awesome. It was first time we left our kitties in her care and she was absolutely fantastic. The daily detailed reports of her visit accompanied with photos and videos she sent us were great and the kitties warmed up to her quickly - which usually is not the case with our fussy little furs. We know now who to contact when we are away from home in the future.”

“Joya-Bella was able to pick up my request after another sitter cancelled last minute and I could not be more grateful! She was great with communication and gave lots of love to my pups over the weekend. Happy to book again 😀”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Barker

“This is our second time booking with Tori and Lilo loves her! Before ever booking with her, he’d never done any type of doggy day care before. He was a little shy on our first booking but warmed up to her by the end of his first day. By day three he was excited to see her when she came to pick him up. I just had my second booking and as soon as he saw her, Lilo practically jumped into her arms. He actually remembered her and was happy to see her. Tori makes sure to walk him as regularly as he needs and he always comes back happy. He’s a velcro dog and she doesn’t mind LOL. I’d never use Rover before booking with Tori, but am glad I found this app and her! She makes my little guy feel comfortable and safe!”

“Really great experience! She was able to take care of my poodle last minute. She sent dozens of pictures and took him on a lot of walks. He came back pooped and happy!”


“June took great care of our 16 week old puppy. Simba was just back from his last set of shots and June made sure he was comfortable in the company of the other doggos in the house. She sent us pictures and video of Simba during his time there. This helped us feel at ease as well. We could see that SImba was happy and comfortable spending time there.”

“We absolutely love Mercedes and couldn’t be happier with the care she provides. She shares regular updates and photos, which gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away. She’s always responsive, timely, and incredibly flexible and accommodating. Most importantly, she takes amazing care of Dudley, and it truly shows. We’re so grateful to have found her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”


“I was in town for training and needed a safe place for my pup while I was in class. Michael provided exactly that. He has an obvious love of and connection with dogs. Although my guy was less than thrilled at staying with a stranger, I was 100% confident that he was in a great place. And when my training ran late on day 2, he was very accommodating and flexible on my pick up time. If/when I'm back in the area and need a dig sitter, I won't hesitate to call Michael.”

“Daniela ha sido excelente con nuestra Tinker , ha estado al pendiente de ella , para que se sienta como en casa . Saca de su tiempo para jugar en el patio con Tinker . Estamos muy complacidos con su trabajo . 100 % recomendada .”

“Mae is wonderful. Not only is she patient to build the relationship with dogs, she is also very communicative. I was updated frequently, and it is relieving to see she gets along with my dogs very well. I highly recommend Mae!!”

“Waffles has the best time at Cheryn’s. She was fantastic about setting up an initial meet and great to get to know us and Waffles. He was very comfortable immediately at her home and found his way to her spacious backyard. He has the best time with her. Cheryn’s is awesome and always easy to communicate with and wants the best care for her clients.”


“Gabriela is absolutely wonderful! Eva has stayed with her six times now, sometimes for weeks at a time, and it has truly become her second home. I love the constant stream of photos Gabriela sends—it’s so clear that Eva is having a great time and is being treated like family. It gives us such peace of mind knowing she’s happy and well-cared for while we’re away.”

“Love Natalie and her services! She is so kind and so understanding. She loves on Phoebe and gives her exactly what she needs (which can be a lot some days!), she’s attentive, compassionate, fun and loving. Will continue to use and highly recommend her!”

“Stephanie did a great job with my Gizmo :) loved getting pictures of him living his best life throughout the day. Thanks, Stephanie! Will definitely be bringing gizmo back soon ?”

About: I’ve spent the at least 10 years caring for dogs of all ages, from tiny puppies learning the ropes to seasoned seniors who just want a cozy nap and some love. I've rescued a few puppers and ended up keeping 2! I’ve helped with basic training, puppy routines, and plenty of playtime in between! I treat every pup like my own — with patience, affection, and lots of belly rubs. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or keeping up with training, your dog will feel right at home. (Currently a dog mom to 1, 8 year old lab mix rescue). Currently working from home with a very flexible schedule! 7am-5pm I may have a few meetings with tons of breaks. I typically do two long walks a day (30 min each) and at least 6-8 potty breaks throughout the day. I like letting your pet tell me what they need in terms of outdoor visits. I like to listen to dog parents and stay within your recommendation! My goal is to make sure your babies are as comfortable as possible.
“It’s been a week since Layla was with Rowena. Just now I mentioned her name and Layla tore out of the room to look for her. When she couldn’t find her she started howling! I think it’s time for another visit! Thanks so much for loving Layla! She so clearly loves you back!”

“Payton was absolutely amazing with Teddy! From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease leaving him in her care. She went above and beyond—sending updates and photos, sticking to his routine, and treating him like her own. Teddy was happy, comfortable, and clearly so well loved. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would 100% recommend Payton to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their dog 🐾💙”


“I am super thankful for Christy! We needed a place for our pup to go last minute and I was able to schedule doggy daycare for him last minute with Christy! She had other dogs for mine to play with which was great because my pup loves to play! She sent pictures and updated me shortly after he was dropped off to let me know he had gotten settled! We picked him up a few hours later and he was happy and very tired! I would definitely recommend!”
About: I genuinely love and care for animals in general. From small to wild & Exotic. Running my own canine daycare has lifted my business off the ground to succeed at my goal. Many years of experience I’ve gained behavior knowledge, along with training to Vaccinate, medicate, and bathing all sizes. I adore my career. Overtime I’ve affiliated with many vet hospitals while majoring vet med, which is a plus for my clients during playtime accidents or general health conditions. Under parents approval are they okay to play with separate boarders. A lovely individual play is also provided. Overall, my home becomes your home once they find their spot 🫶🏽 Thank you in advanced for choosing me as your sitter. P.S their photos are added to my profile daily. They’re all stars✨ 🤭 I canine sit full time while taking online classes. A mother of 1 w/ an additional business in art in the comfort of my home. Pups fit perfectly in my schedule. PSA: Any pups stay longer than a week, please schedule a 1x Spa & bath during their stay or have them bathed before their boarding schedule starts only If they have strong odors. I will not accept clients with no baths included in boarding or before they arrive. My home is my safe and care free zone where my peace and serenity is. Positive energy is mandatory. Your pet will absorb that energy. Which also comes with treats and lots of belly rubs. Including your requirements, I’m happy to include in their boarding routine.
“Claudia was GREAT! If not AMAZING! I will definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking to have someone taking care of their pets while they are gone!”

“As usual, Cleo had a great day with Liying. She had many playmates and I got a lot of videos all throughout the day. I don't think she even rested from playing so now she is down and out! Thank you Liying and Andy for taking care of Cleo today! ❤️”

“Laura is lovely & with a calm, reassuring energy. She has been patient with our vizsla who is particularly anxious & high energy when greeting new people at the house & accommodating of us breaking the intro to walks/dog sitting down to get him comfortable with a new friend in his life.”


“Maria managed our two dogs well in addition to accessing our locked community and home security system. She is very dependable. I wouldn't hesitate to request her services again.”

About: Hi, I’m Mari! 🐾 I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud fur mom to one very loved pup and two spoiled kitties. Caring for animals has been a huge part of my life for more than 15 years. Over the years, I’ve cared for the pets of neighbors, family, friends, and coworkers, and I’m excited to finally bring that experience to Rover and connect with even more pet parents and their furry family members. I’ve had the privilege of caring for dogs and cats at every stage of life, from young puppies and kittens to senior pets. I’ve raised my own dog, Lennox, since he was just two months old, and I’ve had my youngest kitten since he was two months old as well. I’ve also cared for several beloved family pets well into their senior years, including pets 12+ years old who required medications, specific routines, and a little extra attention. I understand how important it is to follow a pet’s routine exactly as their parents have established it, especially when it comes to feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and other individual needs. As a pet parent myself, I know that every animal has their own personality, quirks, routines, and specific needs. I’m naturally very attentive and detail-oriented when it comes to my own pets, and I bring that same level of care to every animal I look after. I also have experience with medium-sized breeds and dogs who may be reactive, nervous, or need a little extra patience and understanding. I know that not every pet is comfortable with the same things, and I’m happy to take the time to learn what makes each individual pet feel safe and comfortable. One of the things I pride myself on most is communication. I know how difficult it can be to leave your babies with someone else, so I want you to feel just as comfortable and informed as your pet is. I love sending regular updates, pictures, and little check-ins throughout the day so you never have to wonder how your furry family member is doing. I’m also happy to follow detailed instructions and routines because I understand that consistency is important for pets. I’m currently a Civil Engineer going through a career change, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability. I’m happy to work with busy schedules and do my best to accommodate the needs of both you and your pet. I’m also currently working toward obtaining my Pet CPR certification because I want to be as prepared and knowledgeable as possible should an emergency ever arise. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities, and I’m always happy to provide any additional information, references, or details that would help you feel comfortable choosing me to care for your pet. At the end of the day, I know how much our pets mean to us because mine mean the world to me. My goal is to give your pets the same patience, attention, affection, and care that I would want someone to give mine. ❤️🐶🐱 Pet care fits really naturally into my schedule right now. I’m currently in a flexible stage of my career as I transition out of civil engineering, which allows me to have more control over my time and availability. Because of that, I’m able to plan my days around pet care visits, walks, feedings, and check-ins without feeling rushed or overbooked. I’m happy to adjust my routine to match your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible. Whether it’s early potty breaks, consistent feeding times, or evening walks and cuddle time, I can be there when your pet needs me most. Since I’m not tied to a strict 9–5 work schedule, I also have the flexibility to accommodate last-minute requests when possible and provide reliable care during weekdays, weekends, and some holidays. I make it a priority to only take on bookings that I can fully commit to, so your pet always gets my full attention and care. At the end of the day, I can structure my schedule around the pets I’m caring for, because making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and consistent in their routine is my top priority. 🐾 I currently provide care in my clients’ homes so their pets can remain in the environment they already know and feel comfortable in. I’m happy to follow their established routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, crating, bedtime routines, and puppy potty schedules. I also have experience with puppy training and can help reinforce consistent potty-training routines while you’re away. I’m very attentive to safety and will make sure doors, gates, crates, and other areas are properly secured, especially when entering or leaving the home. I’ll take the time to understand each pet’s personality, triggers, and boundaries so I can provide care that is safe and comfortable for them. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions and adjust to whatever routine works best for each pet. My goal is to keep their day as consistent as possible while giving their parents peace of mind through regular updates and communication.
“Corina was wonderful with Rex! She was reliable, communicative, and took great care of him during his walk. I really appreciated her prompt response. I could tell Rex was happy and well cared for. It’s such a relief knowing he’s in good hands. Thank you, Corina we’ll definitely be booking with you again!”

“I booked Karina again this week for dog walking, and I am genuinely impressed. Princess, who is usually very shy and slow to trust, bonded with her so much faster this time, and everything went incredibly smoothly. Seeing that level of progress in such a short time really speaks to Karina’s patience, experience, and calm approach. She clearly understands how to work with nervous dogs and builds trust in a very thoughtful and respectful way. It gives me a lot of confidence and peace of mind knowing Princess is with someone so capable. I will definitely continue booking her on a regular basis and highly recommend her to anyone, especially if you have a shy or anxious dog.”


“Molly was great with my dog Milo and treated him very well. She was punctual and followed all my instructions about Milo, and was great at responding to messages. Will be booking with her again!”


“I had to be put on bed rest and Christy squeezed us in last minute - thanks Christy! She’s patient with our Great Dane who’s in his rebellious puppy phase.”

“Kelly is truly a professional. Her communication was stellar. We had to pick a walker very last minute due to an emergency but we’re very glad it was her. If you’re looking for someone, I would definitely recommend her.”

“Courtney is fantastic with my dog! She is always prompt to take him for his walk and makes sure to send pictures each day. It is great to know she is spending time with him while I am at work!”

“Thank you, Stephanie, for your time and for taking care of my dogs. Everything was perfect! She even sent photos. It was the first time my dogs went out with someone other than me, but she took care of them with so much love!❤️”

“Our first time using Rover, and we were truly blessed to find Mrs. Lucy! ❤️ She is a top-notch pet sitter who genuinely understands each dog’s personality and gives them the individual attention and care they need. I especially love that she has wonderful, loving dogs of her own who are sweet, gentle, and welcoming. She also offered us a meet-and-greet beforehand, which gave us great peace of mind. Her home is immaculate, cool, and comfortable for the doggies, with lots of toys for them to play with and a beautiful backyard to enjoy. My Bichonpoo is definitely extra 😂, and Mrs. Lucy was so patient and attentive with him. She kept us updated throughout the day with photos 📸 and little updates, which I greatly appreciated. It made being away from him so much easier! You know you made the right choice when your dog is not sure he wants to leave when you come to pick him up! 😆❤️ Even better, his normal routine was completely back to normal the very same day we brought him home. I would highly recommend Mrs. Lucy to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and experienced pet sitter, especially if you’re new to Rover. We are so thankful we found her! ❤️👏🐾”

“Kristina and her family were caring and attentive in taking care of my Ozzy while I was away. They would send picture updates daily and answer messages quickly. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for pet sitter with peace of mind!”

“Ms Dee was awesome with my baby's first time being away from home for an extended period of time. She also got along well with her doggie, Ms Bailey. So much room for the pups to run around which was a plus especially since Mia's kind of big girl☺️.”

“Lafayette was prompt to reply from start to finish. He was compatible to my floating schedule and his home with 2 dogs was well suited for our alpha dog , Bunny! He took her for daily walks and she adapted to him very well! We will use him again if we head down to Houston again!”

“I cannot thank Neel and his family enough for the incredible care they gave him. From the moment he arrived, they welcomed him like family and made him feel safe, loved, and completely at ease. Milo can have anxiety in new environments, and they handled it with so much patience, kindness, and understanding. This allowed Milo to feel completely comfortable and relaxed while I was away. They kept me updated every single day with photos and videos. Seeing Milo and Sydney playing together was the highlight of my day while I was away! Seeing how happy, relaxed, and comfortable Milo was made it so clear that he was not just being watched, but genuinely cared for and loved. This was hands down the best experience I’ve ever had on Rover. They went above and beyond in every way possible, and I never once worried about Milo while he was with them. I am beyond grateful for the love, attention, and dedication they showed him. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking such amazing care of Milo. I am so thankful to have found you and would trust you again in a heartbeat. 💛🐾”

“This was our first time leaving our dog with Lauren- upon our first meeting we immediately felt at ease. Lauren and her partner were both so accommodating and flexible, not to mention just great people. We didn’t have any doubts or worries leaving our beloved dog with them! She sent us pictures every day and updates on how she was doing. 100% would recommend and will use again!”
