Personalized care for your dog or cat - Melissa
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Melissa
“Melissa was SO great!!! She was so kind and helpful to me and so loving on our dogs - She gave me updates every day with pictures of my dogs and I didn’t have to ask for anything! The best part was she let them sleep wherever in her own house, that was just so accommodating and nice, you don’t always get that level of care and accommodation from other dog sitters! (My dogs are not fans of crates). Highly recommend her and her family. She even gave my dogs her own cheese to give my dog her pill bc I forgot cheese to give her! Amazing and easy experience. I will 100% be using her again!!”
“Maria went above and beyond to take care of Lee. I can tell Lee was really happy in their house and enjoyed all the playtime and activities her family did with Lee. Thank you Maria!”
“Derek and Kristina were awesome! Our Molly clearly had a blast per the pictures sent and videos of her swimming. We’ll definitely be using them again in the future! Thank you both!!”
“Christian went above and beyond of taking care of Bella while we were away. He sent us photos and videos of our baby girl. He updated us everyday. We can tell Bella was happy. Thank you Christian”
“Yulia was a perfect babysitter not once did I have to ask about my baby she kept me well informed all dsy and sent plenty of pictures Yulia is now and will forever be part of out family”
“We had a wonderful first experience with our dog Pepper. We received happy videos and pictures of our puppy every day which my kids appreciated so much. Donessa was so attentive to any questions we had. We will definitely be back!!”
“Judith is THE BEST!! This was our second booking, and for 10 days! Our Labrador loves her and her family, and we felt so comfortable knowing that our beloved girl was in the best hands. We highly recommend Judith as a sitter. She sends daily pics and updates that keep you connected to your pet! Again, Judith is WONDERFUL, and you will be glad you chose her!”
“I can't say enough great things about Lisa. Our dog Abby has now stayed with her multiple times. In past years, we dreaded leaving our dog with someone while out of town, because she would stop eating and get depressed. When we drive up to Lisa's house, Abby is truly happy to see her. She thrives during her stay and she's a happy girl when we return. Thsnk you Lisa. You are the best.”
“It was the first time I've used this service and I have an older dog. It was just a few hours but she was very sweet to my fur baby and it made this easier . I am definitely gonna book her again and for s longer stay for my vacation”
“Salene was amazing! I requested her to board my dog in March 2025 and she responded quickly! She asked questions and put me at ease. Drop off was easy and she sent me videos and photos of my dog Dash throughout his stay. My dog got along with her dog Teddy and I could tell he was comfortable in her home. I would highly recommend her as a sitter!”
“Janet was awesome with our Kelsey this weekend! She kept us updated with fun pictures everyday and was super helpful to meet our scheduling needs. She’s pleasant, kind and very warm and by the way, has a very beautiful home/backyard! I highly recommend Janet as your next dog sitter, as long as you don’t clash with my booking! :-)”
“Brittney has been the best for so long. We have used her with our elderly dog who has since passed :( and now with our 8 month puppy. He does have some separation issues and Brittney knows exactly how to handle. We left him overnight and came home (with much contact and pictures from Brittney) a very happy worn out baby. Do not hesitate! Thank you Brittney”
“Jonai is amazing! I cannot express enough how thankful we are we found her. She treated our baby with so much love. She sent daily pictures and kept us informed of everything. Her house is super dog friendly. I will definitely have her sit for us again.”
“Sarah was great. Worked with our schedule and was quick to respond. Our doggy had a lot of fun on her stay. I would highly recommend if your pet loves to be around other pets. Thank you Sarah!”
“Jennifer was fantastic. She was super responsive, and communicated often with pics and texts. Jasper seemed quite comfortable staying, playing and sleeping at Jennifer’s home and with her two dogs. Will return!”
“Keyuana did an exceptional job taking care of Buster for 3 weeks while we were out of the country. She provided daily updates with pictures, and treated Buster with so much love and care. She truly treated Buster like family. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter and she will be my go-to pet sitter from now on.”
“We were so worried to leave our little baby (who has separation anxiety) for the first time but Lisa was so amazing and took great care of her! Lisa was awesome with our pup’s needs/instructions, and we even got multiple updates and photos throughout the stay. <3”
“I had a very positive experience leaving my two dogs with Sara for an extended period of time. Sara's care was excellent! the dogs enjoyed the backyard, and were very happy under her care. I loved getting regular updates with photos from Sara every morning. Sara is very kind, sweet, and was fast-communicating. I will definitely use Sara’s services again.”

Cat caregivers near you - Melissa
“Here’s a natural, polished version for the Rover review: Connor was great! He respected our home and followed all of our instructions for taking care of our cat. He also kept in close communication with us and reached out whenever there was an issue or question, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat. I highly recommend Connor to anyone looking for a reliable and responsible sitter for their cat or dog!”
“Kimberly is very polite and sensitive to our needs and wants for our cat Leo while we are gone. She communicates with us everyday. We hope she will be available the next time we need her. Thank you Kimberly Mark and Teresa”
“Maddison was fantastic with Tiger and Missy our two cats! She sent a great photo update during her visit and was amazingly flexible when we unexpectedly had to cut our trip short. She truly cares about animals, and we felt completely at ease leaving them in her hands. We’ll definitely be rebooking!”
“Amy was an absolute lifesaver when she extended for a week when I was delayed coming home due to a family illness - thanks so much, Amy!! She was so patient with our skittish kitty, finally winning her over, ending with pets and lap naps! I highly recommend this wonderful lady!”
“Ashley took wonderful care of our cats while we were away! She provided detailed updates after every visit, which gave us so much peace of mind. We really appreciated her thoughtful care, patience, and attention to detail — even cleaning up unexpected messes. It was so sweet to hear how both cats warmed up to her. We would absolutely recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter!”
“After the first week with Rachel, I am very impressed! Such a kind soul, and works very well with my golden retriever. I’m able to rest easy knowing that while I’m at work, my dog is getting quality attention from a good person. Highly recommend!”
“Arisha, we wholeheartedly thank you for your professionalism, compassion, and patience with us first timers here at Rover! It has given us immense comfort to entrust our family member to you, knowing they are in great care. Your impeccable communication kept us informed and worry-free, and your genuine concern for building a relationship with Nora truly exemplifies your professional care. All the positive feedback on your profile reflects the high standards you maintain. Once again, we express our deepest gratitude to you from Nora and fam!”
“Maria was amazing!! I was anxious about leaving my two kitties for the weekend because they’re 9month old crazy teenage kitties but Maria took such amazing care of them that after her first visit I knew they were in great hands. She was calm and loving to them and treated my house with extreme respect. I have already booked her again for another weekend and wish I could give her more than 5 stars.”
“Brooke was amazing when taking care of my two cats while I was away. She always sent lots of photos and made sure both cats got the wet food and attention they needed. Went above and beyond!”
“Lea sent us tons of pictures and detailed updates while we were gone, and even brought in our mail and put the trash cans at the curb without being asked. We felt very confident that our boys were in good hands!”
“Eliana provided amazing care to my fur baby. I enjoyed the abundance of images she provided throughout her visits and absolutely loved the written updates provided. She even went above and beyond to pay attention to the little details and make sure we returned to a happy home. My fur baby was extremely lucky to have her as her sitter.”
“I highly recommend Ms. Jaclyn! She bonded quickly with Lula and upon my return home, Lula's usual anxiety wasn’t present. Ms. Jaclyn was kind enough to bring in a package I forgot was coming in. Ms. Jaclyn is now on my speed dial when I have to go on my trips! James S.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12, and my love for them has only grown. I’ve cared for puppies, seniors, and everything in between—including my own dog through his golden years. I know every dog is unique, and I’m here to give them the personalized care they need! I’m a full-time, stay at home Wife! Therefore, I have the rare flexibility to offer round-the-clock care for your pet. Your dog will receive my full attention throughout the day—whether it’s a morning walk, midday playtime, or evening snuggles. I no longer have any dogs of my own, which means my home is a calm, pet-free space—ideal for pets who may prefer one-on-one care. I only care for one dog at a time (unless both are from the same family), so your pet gets personalized attention and never has to compete for love or space. I completely understand that trusting someone new with your pets can be unnerving. I provide personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs, whether in my home or my client’s home. I create a comfortable, stress-free environment by following their routine, ensuring they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. From daily walks and feeding to administering medication or providing extra attention for puppies and senior dogs!
“Sara takes great care of my two cats. One is a bit of an aggressive cat so I struggle to find someone that feels comfortable caring for her. It’s been such a relief since booking with Sara.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Melissa
“I was so nervous using Rover, but Lisa and David were amazing! My dog and I had the best experience! I loved getting photos, videos, and updates during his stay. He came home tired each day. They're yard is HUGE! Perfect for my energetic 1 year old husky mix! He got all the love and attention he needed throughout the day. I highly recommend booking with Lisa and David. I'll be using their service again very soon.”
“Chandra is amazing to work with! We received photos, and updates while our dog, Bauer was in her care. She made the process easy for us by picking him up and dropping him off him off when we needed it. Bauer had a great time at her house too! We will absolutely be using her again.”
“Keyuana is a dream come true! Our beagle puppy, Cole, needed to spend the day due to a day of appointments. Keyuana took fabulous care of him! Her home and yard were immaculate, and she sent us updates and pictures throughout the day. Knowing she also will board is a relief when we plan our next vacation!”

About: Hi, Ive had the pleasure of taking care of dogs since the age of 13 yrs old. I'm a mom of 2 children and 2 fur babies who are highly loved within our home. We hope to see your fur baby around! I've worked with dogs from my childhood and have experience caring for new puppies, adults, and senior dogs. I also have experience training and administering medications as needed. I am available weekdays, weekends and holidays. If you need me, I am available to help. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of grass for potty breaks and playtime. I have a friendly Yorkiepoo and Toy Maltipoo who really enjoy playing with other dogs. If your dog loves to play, our pups will be happy to oblige, or they can take it easy on a comfy doggy bed or sofa. We take daily walks and weekends we go to the nearby dog parks to socialize. We have a large crate that is available for use if needed, so you don't have to worry about bringing it if your dog needs one. My children and I have teamed up to give your pup the best experience while staying with us weather it be day play or boarding. If you book with us and provide your phone number we can provide photo/text updates as will as short videos of playtime. We try our best to make the pets feel at home to keep a daily routine for them as normal as possible and give your pup the best experience while staying with us weather it be day play or boarding. My yard is fenced, my home is dog proofed and my dogs are trained with care and are happy to meet your fur baby upon its stay..

About: I have plenty of time to spend with the dogs and i love taking care of them walking them and playing.i believe my little dog will be a great company to the other dogs my puppy loves to play with other dogs and she is super friendly and adorable I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention throughout the day.

“Ashley was wonderful with Ollie! She was kind, communicative, and made sure he had a fun and safe day. Ollie came home happy and tired, which is always a great sign. I really appreciated the updates and photos. I’d definitely book with Ashley again! Highly recommend!”
About: I’m Breanna, and I’ve been a lifelong dog lover with over two decades of hands-on experience. My home is a hub for happy pups—not only do I have years of personal experience, but I also regularly pet-sit for family and have assisted professional sitters on their weekly routes. Our sweet girl, Nova is a great companion for dogs who prefer their own space. She isn't an 'in-your-face' player; instead, she’s a calm observer who tolerates guest pups well. She takes a few minutes to warm up to new friends, so we prioritize slow, supervised introductions to make sure everyone feels relaxed. She’s the perfect match for a guest dog who just wants a quiet place to hang out. Safety is my top priority—not just for your pups, but for my household too. For that reason, my husband, Isaac, will sometimes join me for off-site visits and walks. We’ve found that this team-based approach works wonders for staying organized and keeping the dogs happy and supervised at all times! I’m comfortable with all types of schedules and am happy to provide the same level of care and attention I give my own pets. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! Full-Time Care at Home: Both my husband and I work from home during the week with very flexible schedules, which means your dog will rarely, if ever, be left alone. We are able to provide constant supervision, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of companionship throughout the work week. Whether your dog needs a midday walk or just a quiet place to nap near us while we work, we can easily accommodate their routine. Weekend & Personal Schedule: We are available for care seven days a week, with a few set windows for our religious services: • Saturday Mornings: We participate in our ministry work, but are available for the rest of the day and evening. • Sundays: We attend our Christian meetings, but we are fully free outside of those service times to provide care and attention. During these short windows, dogs are safely secured in our home, and we are back quickly to resume our normal routine of play and supervision. Safety & Trust: With over 20 years of dog ownership and experience assisting a professional pet sitter, safety is my primary focus. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs a structured environment to feel secure. • Supervised Introductions: Because my dog, Nova, is polite but independent, I always conduct slow, leashed introductions in a neutral area to ensure all pets feel respected and safe. • Constant Supervision: Since my husband and I both work from home, guest dogs are never left unattended for long periods. • Double-Team Care: Having two adults in the home means there is always a 'backup' to help with leashing, feeding, or managing different energy levels between dogs. Our Environment: We live in a quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood in Anna. Our home is set up to be a peaceful retreat for your pet. • Fenced Yard: We have a secure, fenced-in backyard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time and potty breaks. • Pet-Friendly Layout: Dogs are welcome in our main living areas. We have plenty of space for crates if your dog prefers their own 'den' for sleeping, or cozy spots for them to lounge near us while we work. • Clean & Secure: We maintain a tidy home (no small objects or hazards left out) and prioritize a calm atmosphere, which is ideal for dogs who might be nervous in a new environment.
About: I have always loved animals from feeding, trying to talk to strays, to having animals of my own! I have always been the person to take the responsibility of all care of dogs mainly but I have experience with cats and even bunnies ! Sadly I don't get my dogs any more due to the family dogs passing away I gifted my baby girl to my mom I would love to see and take care of yours! Truly missing all 3 of mine ! Currently my schedule is open I am trying to get more time home with my daughter would love for it to be a regular thing ! Tell me how you take care of yours and I'll do the same! Personal opinion but EVERY dog is very different and what works with one may not with the next !
About: I've been taking care of pups for over 15 yrs now. At first my own pups, but then I would help out friends and family with their pups while they went on vacations and/or traveled for work. My family says I have a kinship with dogs as most dogs naturally get a long with me. Sometimes I can calm the most excitable pup and have them relax in my lap. I work pretty early in the morning. I'm usually home by 10-11 am. I have a pretty good schedule regarding feeding and potty breaks. I tend to take the pups out for walking and play I have a fenced back yard and a dog park near by. I can take your fur babies to the park or on walks regularly. I currently have 2 pups myself, they are well trained and have a pretty steady routine (food and potty breaks). They get along well with other dogs, no biting or aggression. They do set boundaries though. NO humping.
About: I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, and more for over 5 years! Let me know if you’d like walking, boarding, sitting, or grooming!. I am available at all times! I can flex my schedule to accommodate your furry friends! Whether it be sitting, boarding, walking, or grooming, I’m your gal; 24/7! I love all furry friends! Just provide a schedule, and we’ll have a great time! I love fluffy snuggles and going on hikes and walks!

About: I have a 8 yr old bichon myself whom I have trained to be an esa. I also have a five-year-old toy poodle mix who is also an ESA. I am the go to person to dog sit for my friends and family. I am very patient and kind and sill give you furry family member all the love they need. I have experience with dogs who need a little extra help in the health department and who are a little bit older. I will treat your fur babies like they’re my own. I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to take care of the fur babies. I am gone for about eight hours on Tuesday and Thursday. However, I work very close to home so I can run home to do Potty breaks if need be. Both of my dogs are very different personality wise. Loki loves to play and he’s a very curious dog. He likes to interact with other dogs as well. He may be eight years old, but you would think that he’s still a puppy with the amount of energy he has but he’s not wanting to play. He’s wanting to watch TV and cuddle as for Apollo. He’s very laid-back and chill. He likes to just sleep and play by himself, but he will play with other others. He does have a condition with his eyes where he does not produce the correct amount of tears so I do administer a daily medication for him. I do have a small yard with a doggie door so they have access to outside all day.

“I had never hired a dog walker until I met Joshna and her family.

I now book them on a regular basis and I can’t express enough how great they are!! I’d definitely recommend them to friends and fam!”

“Melissa was SO great!!! She was so kind and helpful to me and so loving on our dogs - She gave me updates every day with pictures of my dogs and I didn’t have to ask for anything! The best part was she let them sleep wherever in her own house, that was just so accommodating and nice, you don’t always get that level of care and accommodation from other dog sitters! (My dogs are not fans of crates). Highly recommend her and her family. She even gave my dogs her own cheese to give my dog her pill bc I forgot cheese to give her! Amazing and easy experience. I will 100% be using her again!!”
“Derek and Kristina were awesome! Our Molly clearly had a blast per the pictures sent and videos of her swimming. We’ll definitely be using them again in the future! Thank you both!!”
“Christian went above and beyond of taking care of Bella while we were away. He sent us photos and videos of our baby girl. He updated us everyday. We can tell Bella was happy. Thank you Christian”
“Judith is THE BEST!! This was our second booking, and for 10 days! Our Labrador loves her and her family, and we felt so comfortable knowing that our beloved girl was in the best hands. We highly recommend Judith as a sitter. She sends daily pics and updates that keep you connected to your pet! Again, Judith is WONDERFUL, and you will be glad you chose her!”
“I can't say enough great things about Lisa. Our dog Abby has now stayed with her multiple times. In past years, we dreaded leaving our dog with someone while out of town, because she would stop eating and get depressed. When we drive up to Lisa's house, Abby is truly happy to see her. She thrives during her stay and she's a happy girl when we return. Thsnk you Lisa. You are the best.”
“It was the first time I've used this service and I have an older dog. It was just a few hours but she was very sweet to my fur baby and it made this easier . I am definitely gonna book her again and for s longer stay for my vacation”
“Janet was awesome with our Kelsey this weekend! She kept us updated with fun pictures everyday and was super helpful to meet our scheduling needs. She’s pleasant, kind and very warm and by the way, has a very beautiful home/backyard! I highly recommend Janet as your next dog sitter, as long as you don’t clash with my booking! :-)”
“Jonai is amazing! I cannot express enough how thankful we are we found her. She treated our baby with so much love. She sent daily pictures and kept us informed of everything. Her house is super dog friendly. I will definitely have her sit for us again.”
“Jennifer was fantastic. She was super responsive, and communicated often with pics and texts. Jasper seemed quite comfortable staying, playing and sleeping at Jennifer’s home and with her two dogs. Will return!”
“Keyuana did an exceptional job taking care of Buster for 3 weeks while we were out of the country. She provided daily updates with pictures, and treated Buster with so much love and care. She truly treated Buster like family. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter and she will be my go-to pet sitter from now on.”
“I had a very positive experience leaving my two dogs with Sara for an extended period of time. Sara's care was excellent! the dogs enjoyed the backyard, and were very happy under her care. I loved getting regular updates with photos from Sara every morning. Sara is very kind, sweet, and was fast-communicating. I will definitely use Sara’s services again.”
“All went well and Orson seemed to have a good time and plenty of play time with other dogs. I don’t require a bunch of pictures or anything and I did get a video which was super cute to make me know he was in good hands. Thank You.”
“Eana was great! Very quick to respond and provided daily updates over the 4 days she provided boarding. She has a very strong understanding of dogs and provided a clean and welcoming place (house is very clean). This allowed me to be at ease over the past 4 days while I was gone. Would highly recommend Eana and will 100% reach out if I do come down to SD again.”
“Nikki has been a fantastic sitter for our German Shepherd. He is very reserved and has some medical issues. She has no problem giving him medications. And with her dog Turk, she helped him come out of his shell. He is completely relaxed at her place. This is amazing. He rarely get relaxed anywhere but home. We will always use Nikki”

The regular updates and photos gave us peace of mind, knowing she was enjoying her time. She came home happy,. We highly recommend their services and will definitely be returning.
