“Shane and his family took amazing care of shadow. Shadow enjoyed playing with Pepper and Shane with his family. Would recommend him to anyone who needs a pet sitter. It was also amazing I received pictures and updates everyday!!”
“Isabella was simply AMAZING!!!!! A true gem from start to finish. She came to our home to meet both of our girls, one of them a 17 year old senior. She answered all of my questions and really took her time to get to know the dogs. We boarded with her for over 3 weeks while being out of country and she kept me up to date on how the girls were doing and sent pictures. The services provided by her were amazing and I have asked her to be our permanent sitter when we cannot take the girls. I know taking care of a senior dog is a whole other ballpark than a young(er) dog but both girls looked happy and healthy in all pics and when we returned. I would leave the girls with Isabella in a heart beat again! Thank you again for taking such good care of them!!!! I would also like to mention that she doesn’t run a “boarding factory” like some of the star sitters on here whom I had contacted when searching for a good match for our needs. It shows that she cares about the animal and not how many dogs she can cramp in her house to make the most money.”
“Dorothy is the best! Our dog stayed for a full week with her, and she sent multiple updates a day with plenty of photos. I have no doubt she takes great care of our dog every time!”
“Ashley came thru in a crunch and was more than I could have asked for. She was able to schedule a meet and greet for reassurance and thankfully, my pup got along with her sweet babies. She kept me updated on the daily and made pick up easy peasy. I am so grateful that she was my first Rover experience. She set some pretty high expectations. I 1,000% would recommend her to anyone who is needing the service. Thanks again, Ashley!”
“Amanda took care of our Aussie Mix puppy for 4 days, and she was incredible! Our puppy can be a messy little guy, and she took great care of him and has the patience of a saint!!! She gave us updates every day to give us extra peace of mind, and he had a great time with her dog too! Would 100% recommend Amanda and would definitely come to her again in the future for our pup!”
“Jadyn was very nice and sent pictures through out my doggies time with her. I would definitely book with her again. My babies seemed happy and playful upon picking them up. And she has a few toy poodles which is plus for my two doodles.”
“Kristina and her household were an incredible extended family for our dog, Bailey! She was kind, informative, affectionate, and kept us up to date with plenty of pics, videos and messages every day. As we left Kristina’s house, Bailey was genuinely sad to leave, and I get the sense that she can’t wait for next time! Highly recommend Kristina as a crucial part of anyone’s dog care family!”
“Kyra was amazing with our two dogs. Drop off and pick up were super easy. She had a beautiful back yard for them to play in along with a lovely home for them to cool off and be lazy in. I received updates on their stay along with acute photo. I'm already rebooking with her again!”
“My Mei was well taken care of Joel and his wife took very good care communicated every single day sent photos the show progress that they were making with my baby and I was very satisfied with her. She was very well behaved when she came home and I would definitely rebook with them again. it was like she was being taken care of by family.”
“Andrew did a wonderful job sitting our two dogs. One of our dogs is elderly and needs regular diaper changing while our other dog took some time getting used to being away from us. Andrew provided frequent updates, photos, and videos. My elderly dog needed emergency medical care and Andrew didn’t hesitate in taking the dog to the vet where he received prompt treatment and recovered quickly. It’s easy to see that Andrew really loves dogs and enjoys looking after them. He has a calm, kind demeanor and was able to constructively handle a few difficult situations caused by my dogs. I would certainly have Andrew sit my dogs again. I trust Andrew and he treated our dogs as if they were his own.”
“Lynn and family loved on my out of practice/un-social girl and she came home actually wanting more interaction with more pups! We’re a fan and she’ll be a regular to come and enjoy some time away from home and have some interaction with other pups and humans to enjoy her need for socialization. Thank you for letting her warm up to the thought of being part of another pack for the week!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter over Thanksgiving! Arshawna took such wonderful care of my dog for the entire week. She kept me updated with photos and messages, and I could tell my Yuli felt completely at home with her and her fur baby Roxy. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was safe, loved, and getting PLENTY of attention. Thank you for treating him like family — we’ll definitely be booking with you guys again! 🤗🙏🏻🥰”
“We had a great experience with Tony, highly recommend him for boarding! His communication and updates on our pet were great. It was our corgis first time interacting with other dogs and he did a good job easing her into it and letting us know how she did. Now she’s trying figure out why her new friends didn’t come home with us.”
“Courtney and her family were really awesome with Caramel while I was traveling for the weekend. They provided her lots of cuddles and hugs. Courtney shared some photos of Caramel over the weekend and that was nice to see my pup happy and well-adjusted. Caramel ran around the backyard with their golden retriever, and she even got to use the kiddie pool in the backyard. When I picked up Caramel, everything was gathered together and she got a treat bag to take home! I would definitely book with Courtney again in the future!”

About: I’m a lifelong cat lover with experience caring for cats of all different personalities. I currently have a 9-year-old cat of my own and have also cared for friends’ cats while they’re away. I’m comfortable with independent cats who prefer their space as well as social cats who want plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. My goal is to make your cat feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home, while keeping you updated with pictures and messages while you're away.
“Would definitely recommend! Maricella dropped in to check on our cats while we were out of town and did a wonderful job. She sent thoughtful, detailed updates after each visit with how the cats were doing and anything she noticed—which really gave us peace of mind. Will definitely be reaching out to her again for future trips!”
“We are VERY happy with Adaline’s care of our two cats. Her communication and information about the drop-in visits were thorough. She was on-time and sent us a few photos from each check-in. I am comfortable recommending her care and will book her services again in the future if needed.”
“Jormary is wonderful! As a repeat client, I continue to trust her with Max and Ruby. She is reliable, communicative, and always provides excellent care during her drop-in visits. I’m grateful for attentiveness and kindness towards Max and Ruby, highly recommend her services. 🐾😊”
“Monica was fantastic - responsive and prompt and caring. Our little cat was so well taken care of by her. I would recommend Monica’s services to anyone who needs a sitter.”
“Dayana, Agreed to do drop ins on REALLY SHORT notice... She was prompt, communicative and excellent in all regards. I hope the next time We require a drop in She is available.”
“Isabella is an AWESOME sitter!! She took great care of our cat, gave specific and detailed updates every day, sent lots of photos of him clearly enjoying his time with her, and really went above and beyond with things like sweeping up his litter mess. She really gave us so much peace of mind while being away and I’ll be booking her for our upcoming trips! Thank you so much girl!!”
“I can't say enough good things about having Joshua as our cat's pet sitter while we were away on vacation. He's very professional, prompt, communicative, and gave our boy lots of attention during his check-ins. We enjoyed reading through his entertaining Rover cards each day too!”
“Second time booking with Ayden. He is so thorough and exceptional taking care of our kitties. He is well informed and professional. Takes care to communicate well. Love how good he is with the kitties. He also took care of our plants, above and beyond. Highly recommend Ayden.”
About: I've grown up around all kinds of cats, from family pets to barn cats and even neighborhood strays. I recently adopted a kitten of my own and have loved learning even more about them and their personalities. I'd love the chance to meet and care for your cat!
“Just left my five month kitten, and his 14 year old brother ,for the first time. Lilianais took really good care of them and my plants. She is definitely a cat lover! I got my updates as planned and she answered all my questions. I will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“Martha was great! We set up a meet and greet and she came right on time. The cats were happy to see her and we will book again with Martha. HOWEVER, ROVER did not perform as expected. The platform did not send the requisite information to Martha so that she knew to come the last day. NOT Martha's fault.”
“Darla has been doing drop in visits for my three pups. She is amazing! She is great about being here around the same time each day to keep my dogs on a good schedule. She is very loving towards them and takes great care of them for me!”

Happy to accommodate your animal in any way they need.

“My dog takes a long time to warm up to men, hates peanut butter, and isn’t food motivated. Within the first 5 minutes of our meet and greet my dog was eating peanut butter treats out of his hand and happily getting all the scratches. I have no idea how he did it but my dog instantly loved him. When it came time for the booking my dog jumped out of the car and ran straight for his door with out waiting for me. I got a ton of photos and my dog was very relaxed in all of them. I highly recommend Joshua.”

About: We have raised 3 different dogs together. Two of those furr babies required medical care and special diets, so we are always very attentive and careful with all pets needs! We recently lost our precious boy River, due to his liver disease and we miss his presence tremendously. So having other pets over truly helps keep us going and having a boost of morale. With that being said, we will give your pet 100% of our attention at all times. You can trust your pet will be supervised and cared for all day. At least one of us is always home to supervise when we are dog sitting so your pet is never alone. We have a small dog park at our complex for some outdoor fun time, and can provide daily walks as well to ensure they get more exercise! We have made our home safe for your dog keeping certain things out of reach. I can update you regularly with picture updates as well!

About: I grew up on a 100-acre ranch with 13 dogs, so caring for animals has been part of my daily life for as long as I can remember. I helped raise numerous litters of puppies, which taught me everything from feeding schedules and socialization to house training and keeping a close eye on the little ones.

The house is quiet and calm, which works well for dogs who prefer a low-key environment. My home is a safe, pet-friendly space where your dog is treated like family. We have a large fully fenced backyard with plenty of room to run, play, and sniff around safely. I have a mini blue heeler of my own who’s great company for social dogs, and I’m happy to keep visiting pets separated if yours does better solo (only have her occasionally). I stick closely to the feeding, medication, and walking routine you provide, keep dogs leashed on every outing, and send photo and video updates so you always know how your best friend is doing. If your dog is crate-trained, I’m comfortable using one for rest or bedtime.

About: Give your dog a vacation! :) Your dog won't have any lack of attention in a home of two dog-lovers and an adorable little mutt named Tiger! We both work from home so we’re able to give attention throughout the day. I've grown up with dogs my whole life, and being from the country, we'd usually have six or seven in our family at a time. Tiger loves all dogs, big or small - he's a real dog's dog. Whatever your dog's temperament may be - whether chilling on the couch, or going for a walk or run, we will be happy to accommodate. We only board small and medium sized dogs, up to 40 pounds. If your dog is larger, we are open to house sitting at your residence. Your dog will have lots of room to play and relax in our two bedroom, dog-proofed home. We are lucky to have a fenced in back yard and to live in such a walkable neighborhood (less than half a mile from town square). Since we work from home, I'm able to do multiple walks (or jogs, if you are so inclined) a day. I will also send you updates and photos so you can relax and rest assured that your canine friend is in good hands. Let me know if your dog prefers to be crated at night or sleep with us. We also have several plush dog beds throughout the house, but feel free to bring any bedding or toys that will remind them of home.
About: I love pets!! I have owned many animals growing up and loved each and every one. I currently own 3 dogs and a hedgehog. They are all playful and loving animals!! I would love to take care of, play with, and have fun with your furry friend! Since I have 3 dogs of my own, my days consist of playing tug of war, chase, and doing tricks! I enjoy making a routine for the animals I watch so that they know what to expect while you are away. I understand accidents happen!! If you trust your pet to free roam in your home while you’re away that’s no problem. It is no big deal to me to clean up after your pet. All I ask is anything that your pet will need, you leave out for me to easily find!
About: As a kid I was taught responsibility by caring for our horses, cats, dogs, birds, fish and guinea pigs. I’ve had pets all my life! My mom’s cat almost died of a bacterial infection in her mouth and I’ve helped administer antibiotics to her until she got better. I had a cat who had kidney disease and needed to have IV fluids every week. My other cat had to be mouth fed with a syringe as well as monitored via thermometer up his butt. I have house and pet sit for friends and family that have multiple pets, most recently for a friend that had 6 dogs of all sizes! I am an active individual so walking will be a treat for them and me! :) I have given dogs and cats baths and also cared for dogs in heat. I have a very open and wide range of availability and I am available most days, including weekends and holidays as I rarely ever go out of town. It would be great to develop some long term relationships with new pets and their owners! Repeats are always great but not expected. I will do what I can to work with your schedule and the needs of you and your fur child. I will do my best to maintain consistency and high-level care when it comes to your pet. Each pet is different and I try to get to know each one individually in order to gain their trust and yours and provide the best care possible. Often times, I will send pictures to the pet owner, especially if it is a new client or a pet owner is out of town for an extended amount of time. I am easily reachable and try to communicate clearly about wants, needs, and scheduling. I prefer to do a meet and greet prior to providing a service, but it is not mandatory, especially for last minute bookings! We have a small yard in front and neighbors that will walk their dogs but they are all on leashes and well behaved. We live in a newer and safe community and I often take my dog for a walk around the neighborhood. There is a small park down the street which is nice too. We also have a fenced in backyard which can be seen from the inside of the house or the porch. We live in a one story house, but there are steps from the porch to the yard outback. My husband lives with me and has also grown up with cats and dogs. We currently have one male cat Santiago who gets along great with our male Chihuahua Juan Pablo and also got along great with my former senior Maine coon cat. He is a bit weary of strangers at first, but he will just hide until he gets to know you a bit and then you won’t be able to get him off of your lap. We have a gate in between the kitchen and the rest of the house so that the Chihuahua can have free rain to walk around and not have to be in his cage when we are not home. In the event that we have another animal in the house we can keep the Chihuahua in his cage. We also have two bedrooms and two baths that can be used to separate animals.The Chihuahua is very friendly and gets along great with the cat. He is also a bit skittish at first with strangers but once he gets to know you all he wants to do is give you kisses. He is very non-aggressive and barely ever barks. He is also very friendly. I feed my cat both wet and dry food twice a day in his food dish and he has water out constantly. I feed the dog twice a day, sometimes dry food, and sometimes refrigerated dog food. I let the dog out several times a day and we go for a daily walk as well. I clean the kitty litter box once a day. I snuggle and cuddle with both of them as much as possible, and play fetch with the dog at various points throughout the day.
About: I’ve always had dogs and cats my entire life. I have taken care of dogs for a while as well. I am very reliable and love to see animals happy, so I try to give them the best experience possible. I currently work part time at a doggy daycare, I am available for drop in’s in the morning and afternoon. Otherwise I’m fully available in the afternoons. I have plenty of time on my hands to make sure your pet has a great time! I have a spacious house with a big backyard for your pup to run and play. I have a 4 year old pitbull who loves meeting new friends and zooming around!

“Shane and his family took amazing care of shadow. Shadow enjoyed playing with Pepper and Shane with his family. Would recommend him to anyone who needs a pet sitter. It was also amazing I received pictures and updates everyday!!”
“Isabella was simply AMAZING!!!!! A true gem from start to finish. She came to our home to meet both of our girls, one of them a 17 year old senior. She answered all of my questions and really took her time to get to know the dogs. We boarded with her for over 3 weeks while being out of country and she kept me up to date on how the girls were doing and sent pictures. The services provided by her were amazing and I have asked her to be our permanent sitter when we cannot take the girls. I know taking care of a senior dog is a whole other ballpark than a young(er) dog but both girls looked happy and healthy in all pics and when we returned. I would leave the girls with Isabella in a heart beat again! Thank you again for taking such good care of them!!!! I would also like to mention that she doesn’t run a “boarding factory” like some of the star sitters on here whom I had contacted when searching for a good match for our needs. It shows that she cares about the animal and not how many dogs she can cramp in her house to make the most money.”
“Dorothy is the best! Our dog stayed for a full week with her, and she sent multiple updates a day with plenty of photos. I have no doubt she takes great care of our dog every time!”
“Jadyn was very nice and sent pictures through out my doggies time with her. I would definitely book with her again. My babies seemed happy and playful upon picking them up. And she has a few toy poodles which is plus for my two doodles.”
“Kristina and her household were an incredible extended family for our dog, Bailey! She was kind, informative, affectionate, and kept us up to date with plenty of pics, videos and messages every day. As we left Kristina’s house, Bailey was genuinely sad to leave, and I get the sense that she can’t wait for next time! Highly recommend Kristina as a crucial part of anyone’s dog care family!”
“My Mei was well taken care of Joel and his wife took very good care communicated every single day sent photos the show progress that they were making with my baby and I was very satisfied with her. She was very well behaved when she came home and I would definitely rebook with them again. it was like she was being taken care of by family.”
“Lynn and family loved on my out of practice/un-social girl and she came home actually wanting more interaction with more pups! We’re a fan and she’ll be a regular to come and enjoy some time away from home and have some interaction with other pups and humans to enjoy her need for socialization. Thank you for letting her warm up to the thought of being part of another pack for the week!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter over Thanksgiving! Arshawna took such wonderful care of my dog for the entire week. She kept me updated with photos and messages, and I could tell my Yuli felt completely at home with her and her fur baby Roxy. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was safe, loved, and getting PLENTY of attention. Thank you for treating him like family — we’ll definitely be booking with you guys again! 🤗🙏🏻🥰”
“We had a great experience with Tony, highly recommend him for boarding! His communication and updates on our pet were great. It was our corgis first time interacting with other dogs and he did a good job easing her into it and letting us know how she did. Now she’s trying figure out why her new friends didn’t come home with us.”
“Courtney and her family were really awesome with Caramel while I was traveling for the weekend. They provided her lots of cuddles and hugs. Courtney shared some photos of Caramel over the weekend and that was nice to see my pup happy and well-adjusted. Caramel ran around the backyard with their golden retriever, and she even got to use the kiddie pool in the backyard. When I picked up Caramel, everything was gathered together and she got a treat bag to take home! I would definitely book with Courtney again in the future!”
“Perfect sitter! Communication was consistent and the dogs were so tired on the drive home. I felt like they were welcome and had a good weekend while I was away! I will be using this sitter again.”
“Josh is always awesome! Takes great care of my 2 labs and he even took my Coosa to vet due to blood in her urine while I was out of town. Made sure my girl was taken care of. Josh is super awesome with his animals and treats mine like one of his own. Couldn’t recommend him anymore!”
“The pups had a fantastic stay! Megan took great care of them and kept in touch with us. It was their first stay with a sitter so it was a learning experience and we’re so grateful.”
“Manny took great care of our two pups while we were on vacation for a week. He was organized, very responsive, and kept us updated with pictures. We also had a last minute emergency and needed to extend the booking, and he agreed right away at the regular rate, which we really appreciated. We came home to happy, relaxed dogs and will book with him again.”
