“We have a senior dog that we travel with and we are extremely picky about who watches our fur baby. I would definitely recommend Cheryl to watch him again she is passionate about working with dogs and it’s clear she loves what she does. She is an awesome dog trainer and we appreciate everything she does to help out the community and the dogs!”
“Leo was an amazing dog sitter for Marley! He was incredibly communicative throughout the stay, regularly sending updates and photos that gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Marley was calm, happy, and well cared for the entire time. When we returned, Marley was relaxed and content which says everything! We’re so grateful for the care Leo provided and would absolutely trust him again in the future.”
“What great people! They were exceptional people to leave our dog and cat with. They took such great care of them and I could tell our pets missed them when I brought them when I brought them back home. They kept me up to date on how they were doing and even took my dog on a trip with them so he could get all the exercise he wanted! Definitely recommend and would use them again.”
“Natalie and her husband were great! We received a lot of pictures and updates that made us feel at peace that our baby was well taken care of, I will gladly consider using them again to take care of Mia.”
“I can’t recommend Morgan enough! She was able to take my Layla for a last-minute boarding, which was such a lifesaver! From the start, her communication was excellent, I received frequent updates and adorable pictures that gave me so much peace of mind. Layla was clearly well cared for, happy, and comfortable throughout her entire stay. I’m so grateful for the care and attention Morgan provided and would absolutely trust her again. Thank you so much for going above and beyond!”
“Very attentive and caring sitter. She sent consistent updates and photos and was incredibly flexible and understanding when my circumstances changed. I’m very grateful and would definitely recommend her.”
“Such a blessing to have come across Leo's profile. I couldn't be happier to have used his services. Our dogs trusted in him right away, and they enjoyed having his and his wife's undivided attention! Thank you so very much for your flexibility and constant updates. The pictures and videos were so appreciated. You truly put my mind and heart at ease. Racer and Rex know good people and will definitely be visiting again soon. From the bottom of my heart thank you for being so amazing and welcoming!”
“First time on Rover and couldn't be more pleased with Desiree. Desiree is a genuinely kind person and clearly loves dogs. Recently she and her husband Jorge took wonderful care of my Sofia and Carlie for a couple of days. My two "Girls" are not accustomed to boarding and Desiree texted me daily keeping me informed on my Girls eating habits, etc., adding amazing pictures each day. I would highly recommend Desiree!”
About: Lifelong dog lover and proud rescue advocate, I’ve been surrounded by furry companions since childhood. As a devoted dog mom to my schnauzer and golden doodle, I know firsthand that pets are family—not just animals. Every dog I’ve welcomed into my life has been rescued, because I believe every pup deserves a safe, loving home. When your babies are in my care, they’ll be treated with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own—like family. 🐾💖 I am super lucky enough to be a full time dog mom! My babies get all my love and attention all throughout the day and so will yours I have a big fenced back yard the dogs are welcome on the couches and beds with a 4 bedroom house there is also plenty of room inside and plenty of space to sleep
“I travel a lot and because of that I am constantly having to board my two dogs. But it’s difficult to do because you can’t just throw your pets anywhere. Also, due to the nature of my frequent absences, I don’t ALWAYS get to come back (or leave) exactly when I say I am. Nadine is perfect! She absolutely loves my dogs and actually enjoys watching them and is sad when they leave. She might like them more than I do, and because of that, I know they are getting the type of quality care I expect. She has a house larger than mine and a fenced backed yard in which the dogs can run around and play. And play they do! They always come back happy, and tired lol. Nadine also is super accommodating. Not only have I brought my dogs to her house, but more often than not SHE brings the dogs to me (and even has picked them up before). And she is very reasonable and works well with me based off my availability and time. As mentioned earlier, I’m never on time on the time / day agreed upon. But that doesn’t phase Nadine at all. She’s a champ! Her prices you’ll find to be reasonable and comparable to other caregivers on Rover, and other establishments like the often booked solid Pet Barracks. I’ve used her services 3 times, and already have planned for 2 more. One of which being upwards of 3 weeks. And I’m totally comfortable with that. If you leave your dogs with Nadine, you will have nothing (pet wise) to worry about, at all.”
“I felt so safe leaving my pup with Vanessa. She was so kind upon meeting and updated me with messages and photos of his stay. When I came to pick him up he was smiling ear to ear. Thanks again for taking such good care of my sweet boy!”
About: I grew up wanting to be a vet but decided adopting and playing with all the dogs and animals would be better. I love all animals and have 2 rescue dogs of my own. They gets along with other dogs! I have a flexible schedule and would love to help keep your pet company, take them for a walk or come let them out during your busy day. I am looking forward to meeting your pet and treating them with as much love and attention as if they were my own. Please reach out if you have any questions. I am currently working on certifications and am available any time during the day and week to help with your pets and can provide car that fits your needs. I can make myself available for their needs. I have 2 rescue dogs myself and understand that some dogs are more timid than others. I know the most important thing is gaining your pet's trust.
“I had a wonderful experience with Kris! They were reliable, caring, and truly made my dog feel at ease. I received regular updates and photos, which made me feel confident that my dog was in great hands. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“She was amazing. Took Colt in as one of her own and made sure he got his exercise and play time. Went above and beyond with that, so grateful. When we came to pick him up he was excited to see us but also still wanted to play with her. Colt made new friends for sure!”

My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your furry family member is safe, loved, and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I work from home two days a week, and I have the flexibility to adjust those days to match your pet’s needs whenever possible. This allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I’m also available on weekends, making it easy to accommodate overnight stays or weekend getaways. Whether your dog needs a quiet place to relax or an active day filled with walks and play, I’m committed to providing dependable, loving care while keeping their routine as consistent as possible.

Whether they enjoy playtime, long walks, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care. I understand how important communication is, so I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care and attention I give to every pet. I don’t see pet sitting as just a job, I treat each animal like they’re my own. I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and comfort needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive, and I make communication a priority by keeping owners updated with messages and photos.

I do work but also have plenty of availability, which gives me plenty of time during certain mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. Just check in with me first about certain times! I plan my schedule carefully so I can provide consistent attention, timely feedings, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I have a fenced off patio and a friendly dog to keep your babies company. If you’d like your animal to be crated, i can easily do that.
“Carla is so thorough, and took such good care of my two cats! I highly recommend Carla for these services! She gave picture updates every time she came, which gave me peace of mind.”
“Bekah was amazing and did a great job with my boy. Went above and beyond any of my expectations. Won’t hesitate to have her over to take of him again during my next trip.”
“Jess was absolutely incredible watching our boys. Cannot recommend her enough. We had a concern over our one cat and she jumped right to the rescue, going way above and beyond. Thank you so much Jess for easing our minds while out of the country. We will 100% be booking again!”
“Ami was a wonderful sitter for our kitties. She truly cares about each pet and goes above and beyond for them! I could tell the kitties loved her from the pictures she would send at each check in.”
“I had never used Rover and must admit that I was leary about it. Lia completely alleviated my concerns. After her very first report, I knew she could be trusted to provide excellent care for our two cats. She not only took care of the basics like feeding and cleaning the litter box, but also gave the cats lots of attention (petting, brushing, treats, etc.). I highly recommend her, and will request her again.”
About: ⭐️Description⭐️ I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and temperaments; anxious dogs, seniors, puppies, and pets that needed medication. I’ve pet sat German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, Border Collie puppies, a Welsh Corgi, a Poodle, and many mixed breeds. I also have experience with cats and kittens. I’m comfortable handling dogs that need extra care. My own dog, Molly (a Lhasa Apso), had epilepsy, so I’m experienced with seizures, medication schedules, and staying calm during emergencies. I’ve also worked through behavioral challenges. One of my Chihuahuas was a rescue with aggression issues, and through patience and consistency, she became calm and affectionate. My goal is always to make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and cared for while you’re away. —————————————— 🌟🐕 Services 🐈🌟 —————————————— 🚪 Drop-ins 🚪 I’ll follow your instructions carefully, make sure your pet is fed, drinking water, comfortable, and of course spending time with them so they don't feel alone. 🦮 Walks 🦮 Walks will follow your preferred route, distance, and pace to match your dog's need for whatever you see as sufficient. 🏠 House Sitting 🏠 I'll respect your home and your pet's routine.

About: As a passionate dog sitter, I offer personalized care tailored to your furry friend's unique needs. Whether it’s providing gentle guidance for playful puppies, ensuring comfort for senior dogs, or sticking to specific routines, I treat every pet like family. With a keen eye for detail, I prioritize their happiness, safety, and well-being—offering not just sitting, but genuine companionship. I am currently working part time with a preference for pet care in the evenings during the week, however I am more than willing to discuss flexibility if needed. In my home or yours, your pet's comfort and safety are my top priorities. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for play and relaxation. If I’m caring for your pet at your home, I ensure they stick to their familiar routines, including feeding schedules, walks, and bedtime habits. In both settings, I provide regular potty breaks, exercise, and lots of affection to keep them happy and stress-free.
“Ashley did an excellent job on her drop in visits with our dog! She went beyond just the typical drop in and provided extra care to our dog that was much appreciated. I highly recommend using Ashley.”
“Melynda is an excellent cat sitter! My kitties and I are really grateful for her attentive care while I'm away. It's clear that she has a genuine love for pets and ensures they are comfortable and happy. She always arrives on time, actively engages with them, and keeps me updated with photos. I will definitely hire her again for my next trip. Thank you, Melynda!”
“Nadine was quick to respond. She took care of my two cats, one of whom requires oral medication twice a day. Nadine came over before our trip to meet the boys and see how I give meds. She was flexible with our scheduling and had great communication. Will re-book.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds and ages over the years—from helping pups transition off their mother’s milk to supporting senior dogs through their final vet visits. I’ve experienced many different situations with dogs, each one teaching me something new. No matter how much time I’ve spent with them, I always stay open to learning and growing alongside them. I currently work full-time with a school district, with hours until 6 PM Monday through Friday. During the school year, my weekends are fully open for pet care, and I’ll also be available on weekdays whenever we are on school breaks or vacations. I treat my cats and dog as if they were my own children, and I would extend that same love and care to your pets as well.

Always so communicative and helpful, I’m grateful I found them! Thank you for all of your help! Definitely will be reaching back out. ☺️”
About: I am young and active so I’m able to walk dogs for miles as well having the experience with unique breeds like an Alaskan malamute I wake up in the morning at 5 am to feed my dog and I take her out on a mile walk and sometimes run.

My boy was very happy and was so well taken care of. She went above and beyond making sure he had all he need at home before she left. I definitely recommend her to take care of any of your fur guys. Will definitely be using her again.”
“Veronica is dedicated and great at training helping my pups work through their behavior issues (dog reactivity and anxiety) with daily walks. She is patient and consistent.”
“We use Lupita regularly and enjoy having her care for our puppy. I find Lupita to be reliable, responsible and trustworthy and my dog really enjoys her visits with her! It's a win-win!”
“Valeria was super flexible with my schedule. She even helped me out with some funky requests. Thor was so happy and tired after his walks! I can’t say enough for how great she was! 10/10 recommend”
“Kye is super reliable and flexible. He walks my boys on a daily basis and they love him! He’s always so sweet to them & always shows up on time. He’s super helpful and communicative. Would definitely recommend”
About: I used to work in the pet industry. Meeting new dogs was the best part of the job. I'm familiar with grooming services, dog trainers, and have relationships with many local vets. I can balance treating your pet like a member of the family, but still respect that they are an animal. I can be firm if needed or spoil them rotten with affection. I will adhere to strict diets and can offer nutritional advice if they are experiencing digestion issues. If they like to motor, I will take them for relaxing car rides. If you need a little help with some behavioral issues, I will also do my best to improve the bond between you and your pet. I happen to have a soft spot for the oldies but goodies.

I would definitely recommend Cheryl to watch him again she is passionate about working with dogs and it’s clear she loves what she does. She is an awesome dog trainer and we appreciate everything she does to help out the community and the dogs!”
“Leo was an amazing dog sitter for Marley! He was incredibly communicative throughout the stay, regularly sending updates and photos that gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Marley was calm, happy, and well cared for the entire time. When we returned, Marley was relaxed and content which says everything! We’re so grateful for the care Leo provided and would absolutely trust him again in the future.”
“What great people! They were exceptional people to leave our dog and cat with. They took such great care of them and I could tell our pets missed them when I brought them when I brought them back home. They kept me up to date on how they were doing and even took my dog on a trip with them so he could get all the exercise he wanted! Definitely recommend and would use them again.”
“Natalie and her husband were great! We received a lot of pictures and updates that made us feel at peace that our baby was well taken care of, I will gladly consider using them again to take care of Mia.”

About: Lifelong dog lover and proud rescue advocate, I’ve been surrounded by furry companions since childhood. As a devoted dog mom to my schnauzer and golden doodle, I know firsthand that pets are family—not just animals. Every dog I’ve welcomed into my life has been rescued, because I believe every pup deserves a safe, loving home. When your babies are in my care, they’ll be treated with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own—like family. 🐾💖 I am super lucky enough to be a full time dog mom! My babies get all my love and attention all throughout the day and so will yours I have a big fenced back yard the dogs are welcome on the couches and beds with a 4 bedroom house there is also plenty of room inside and plenty of space to sleep
“I travel a lot and because of that I am constantly having to board my two dogs. But it’s difficult to do because you can’t just throw your pets anywhere. Also, due to the nature of my frequent absences, I don’t ALWAYS get to come back (or leave) exactly when I say I am. Nadine is perfect! She absolutely loves my dogs and actually enjoys watching them and is sad when they leave. She might like them more than I do, and because of that, I know they are getting the type of quality care I expect. She has a house larger than mine and a fenced backed yard in which the dogs can run around and play. And play they do! They always come back happy, and tired lol. Nadine also is super accommodating. Not only have I brought my dogs to her house, but more often than not SHE brings the dogs to me (and even has picked them up before). And she is very reasonable and works well with me based off my availability and time. As mentioned earlier, I’m never on time on the time / day agreed upon. But that doesn’t phase Nadine at all. She’s a champ! Her prices you’ll find to be reasonable and comparable to other caregivers on Rover, and other establishments like the often booked solid Pet Barracks. I’ve used her services 3 times, and already have planned for 2 more. One of which being upwards of 3 weeks. And I’m totally comfortable with that. If you leave your dogs with Nadine, you will have nothing (pet wise) to worry about, at all.”
“I felt so safe leaving my pup with Vanessa. She was so kind upon meeting and updated me with messages and photos of his stay. When I came to pick him up he was smiling ear to ear. Thanks again for taking such good care of my sweet boy!”
About: I grew up wanting to be a vet but decided adopting and playing with all the dogs and animals would be better. I love all animals and have 2 rescue dogs of my own.

I am currently working on certifications and am available any time during the day and week to help with your pets and can provide car that fits your needs. I can make myself available for their needs. I have 2 rescue dogs myself and understand that some dogs are more timid than others. I know the most important thing is gaining your pet's trust.
“I had a wonderful experience with Kris! They were reliable, caring, and truly made my dog feel at ease. I received regular updates and photos, which made me feel confident that my dog was in great hands. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“She was amazing. Took Colt in as one of her own and made sure he got his exercise and play time. Went above and beyond with that, so grateful. When we came to pick him up he was excited to see us but also still wanted to play with her. Colt made new friends for sure!”

“Madison and her family were great while caring for my two corgis while I was gone. I know they loved all the extra attention they were getting and I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Erika and her family were very welcoming! Her daily photos and videos were helpful and gave us reassurance while we were away - plus, it was great to see our dog playing with other dogs. I highly recommend her care.”
“My dog is part of my family and being new to the community I was at a loss for a pet sitter. I was pleased to find Lupita. She was wonderful with my baby. Baci had a wonderful stay with her and her family. I was provided with daily updates which put my mind at ease so I could enjoy my holiday. I will be using her again in the future and highly recommend her services.”
