“Thank you Megan for agreeing to take care of my 2 cats at the last moment. I greatly appreciate it. I am curious if they had any outdoor time and if that went smoothly or was a hassle. When I take another long trip, I'll have to think on what to do with them to see if drop-in visits or a house sitter would be best. At least I knew they were getting food and water and to make sure they were comfortable. Cheers!”
About: I've taken care of several cats over the last few years and have even lived with some for a few months! Generally I have had really good experiences with cats, often times able to befriend ones that other people can have a hard time with. I love working with them and I will always do my best to be patient, responsible and attentive with the cats I care for.
“Booked again, and as always, Miko was well taken care of. I appreciate the updates and pictures while I’m away, great pictures btw, brings peace of mind. Thank you for going above and beyond and taking time to supervise Miko outside, which is his favorite. He loves going outside several times a day, and it meant a lot that they were so patient and attentive with him. Thank you again for always following instructions carefully and taking such thoughtful care of Miko. Very grateful!”
“Excellent sitter. The older cat, Amish, actually liked her, "spoke" with her, and had a good time. Previous sitters had not been able to interact with Amish most the time, but this one interacted with her, and allowed Brooke to give her medicines. Samie was jealous but told me that Brooke was satisfactory and wanted to give Amish the chance to talk to Brooke. Would hire her again.”
“Mitchell and Lindsey were wonderful ! They made us feel so comfortable leaving our little cat Georgia for the first time . They are great communicators and kept us updated with pictures as well . Five stars and a a big recommendation from us ( and Georgia ☺️) .”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Farr West
“Could not recommend Sophonie enough! She took our very recently neutered puppy for day care and this paranoid dog mom could not have felt more comfortable! She is very communicative to ensure you stay in the loop, is flexible with timing, and goes above and beyond for your pup! Definitely will be booking again with her!”
“I thought my pup would just be snoozing at her house but Caroline went above and beyond in taking him on little adventures. Caroline was quick to respond and easy to communicate with. She was also very flexible with our schedule given our last minute request. Drop off and pickup was even made easy.”
“This was our first experience leaving Sophie and we were very pleased. Heidi sent photos throughout the day. It was such a relief to know she was taken care of and having fun. We will definitely use her again when we're back in the area.”
About: Hey I’m Jen! I love all animals and I know how important it is to find someone who cares when you need help! I have had animals my whole life and grew up in the country with horses, goats, dogs, cats, rabbits and ducks! I previously worked as a veterinary technician and have been running this business since 2021. I currently have 6 fur children, 2 horses and 4 working dogs. Helping animals is a passion of mine. So when I see a wandering, lost critter, you better believe I’m picking them up and getting them home! I am a working mom of two ages 14 & 12 who both love animals and help out a lot. When you board with me your fur babies are always taken care of. They can run in the huge backyard, swim in the dog pool, lay in the shade, play with the toys and go on walks during the day, then have their own private space at night to sleep. I am currently working a 48/96 rotating schedule so I have a lot of availability in between those days. I will always do all that I can to fit your pet care needs into my schedule. I have a fully fenced large backyard, private kennel space for each dog for sleeping, eating and rotation with those that are in heat, intact or don’t get along with others. In your home, I will always go above and beyond to meet your wishes and keep things as close to normal operations for your pet as possible to avoid disruption to their lives.
About: Grew up training horses and caring for many animals including dogs, cats and rabbits to name a few. Each pet in my care will recieve some one on one time with me, and lots of cuddles and attention. I am a retired social worker, generally at home, I may leave for a few hours for errands then all pets are comfortable in kennels. I have 2 small dogs of my own, they are friendly, a fenced yard for play and exercise. Bring your own kennel and pet food. Pets are welcome on furniture but generally enjoy sitting on a pillow in my lap.
“Aneice was so helpful and sweet! She was really understanding and flexible with our changing plans. We got regular pictures of our girls and we always were comfortable knowing they were in great hands.”
“Dianne was a wonderful sitter for our 8-month old pup Chili. Chili stayed with Dianne while my wife and I went skiing for two days. She had a great time and was very well cared for. We would absolutely book with Dianne again! Thank you :)”

About: I love animals big and small. My animals are like my children I believe in my pets living happy healthy lives. All of our pets have always been rescues, they deserve to live knowing somebody loves them. I would be honored to pet sit your babies while you are away.

“Jarica and family took wonderful care to make our shy dog comfortable. Thankful for the peace of mind knowing that our dog had some play time while we attended an event. When in the area visiting friends in the future we will book with Jarica again. Loved the photos and the sight of our dog with little girls coming back from a walk!”
“Brittany is the best! She's been great with my puppy who has some separation anxiety and is working on potty training. My dog is happy every time I pick her up. Thank you Brittany!”
“Jana's love of animals really shines through! She was so patient & kind in getting to know my Frenchie named Ava, and astutely observed Ava's nervousness meeting a new sitter. She sent some great pictures of her dog Olive playing with Ava, and one cute pic of Ava chilling out. Jana provided Ava with her probiotic on time, and put all her treats back in her treat bag after they spilled out. Jana is a great sitter who I trust will give Ava everything she needs. I look forward to bringing Ava in the future.”
About: I grow up my whole life with dogs. My babysitter was 2 beautiful Doberman growing up. I know dogs can be different same as all of us people, but with the right care and treatment they can let you lead and show their love, respect, and be your best friend. I had many different dogs since they were puppies until it was time for them to go to heaven. And all of them I remember with so much love and gratitude. They’re the best creatures in this planet. And I will be more than pleased if you let me watch your pets because I know how important they are and they need the attention and love even in those situations that we won’t be home so if you’re going on vacation, small trip, etc. I will make sure your dog is being taking care, feed, had enough walks, and be comfortable being here at home ready for bed, and if they have any special care as medicine or something like that I’m more than happy to have them on track until you can come back from vacation. Please reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns in case this small summary didn’t respond any of your questions. I’m working with a very flexible schedule. I can make anything to work around your dog needs or special care. Any drop of around 4-5PM any day of the week. Thank you. I do have currently 1 friendly golden doodle. She’s a girl and love to play and make friends. She love kids and other dogs as well. She will keep your fur babies happy and busy playing and taking naps together.

About: I have been caring for animals most of my life! I've cared for dogs, cats, goats, chickens and even falcons! My favorite is caring for dogs. I grew up with my dog, Porky, our family Terrier. As I raised my own family, our dog, Lady, became a significant part of my children's lives. Now I often care for my children's pets, and that is where the cats, chickens, goats and falcons come in. I love them all! Occasionally I care for my children's pets; however, I don't have pets of my own. I am typically home most of the day, and if I do go out, it's only for a few hours. Please check my schedule for openings. I have a fenced in side-yard for dogs to run and play. I prefer to not walk large dogs but am happy to take them for a ride in my van. Pets are welcome on the furniture. I am open to feeding and care as suggested by my clients. I have a dog bed ready and waiting.
“Top notch care! Lauren was so kind and I felt very comfortable leaving my fur babies with her. They came back happy and I could tell they had a fun day. I have used rover for awhile now- I highly recommend Lauren! We will be using her again!”
About: Growing up I always had some sort of animal or pets around me, I loved them all, when they looked like they needed some love when I went to a family party I’d spend most of my time with them and enjoy their company, I’d pet and play all the neighbors dogs when I pass their fences on my way to school, I do senior home care with my Clients animals , both kittys and dogs. I’m available full time , I love to take my time with them, get to know them fully, I need my weekends off . Can do Monday through Friday Me and my family are working on getting our yard fenced all around, but we have a outside cat that likes to come in and out of the house who loves the attention and love from all our close neighbors. Keep your pets happy and healthy, provide plenty space for them to get comfortable, and take them to either our neighborhood park or simply walk them around the block safely. We have a pretty decent backyard with plenty of space to play and all to enjoy.
“Lana is awesome! My dogs and I love her and they enjoyed their stay. They were worn out and happy when they came home. It was a great experience and I will continue to use Lana for all my doggie daycare needs. Thank you Lana”

“Once again another happy dog and owner. Booked a 1 hr walk but the weather turned crappy fast. Traylor and Jason had great communication with me and Traylor still wanted to give my dog a full hour! They did half walk/half car ride and it worked out perfect! Opal looks so happy Thanks so much! I am glad they watch out for Opal like she is their own!”
“We were so fortunate to find Emma on Rover. We moved to an apartment in March and needed her to walk and exercise our 2 dogs. Our girls as I call our dogs love her. Emma is also a dog trainer and I appreciate how she does it with patience and kindness. Bailey our Golden Retriever pulled on her lease and it was difficult for me to keep holding on. Emma taught her to walk without pulling and it’s made a big difference. Emma also taught other commands. My girls now walk and play without being stimulated by other dogs. She is the best!!!”

About: For as long as I can remember I've loved animals and have been genuinely interested in learning about them. I grew up having lots of pets and have a wide range of care and management experience with various species including: dogs, cats, birds, rodents, some reptiles, fish, horses, and other livestock. In 2010, when I first moved to Vegas, after many years of riding and horse keeping- I became a full time horse trainer and ranch manager in Northwest LV. During my early 20's I also apprenticed with several horse and dog trainers, getting my start in a few different horse and dog sports. In 2013, I completed a small animal veterinary assistant program (AS) from Animal Behavior College and following internship at a local vet clinic to further my education, but continued to work privately for clients as I am much more interested in the behavior aspects. I continued riding and training, volunteering countless hours with L.E.A.N (las vegas equine rescue network) and Paradise Ranch horse assisted therapy, as well as a few other local smaller programs for horses, dogs, and even cats. During those years I periodically helped teach various dog sports and obedience classes, as well as taking my own continuing education classes separately. I recently moved back here from a few years living abroad so I am looking to expand my client base again! This my 16th year of professional animal training and management. I'm an experienced behavioral consultant for dogs and horses. I use gentle, effective, ethical handling methods backed by modern research that do not involve the use of applied punishment as a teaching tool. I feel very strongly about compassionate care, training and daily management and am at a high level of hours in both animal science education and practial experience. Most animals I've handled appreciate my very gentle approach and clear understanding of their signals, and I have never met one I didn't genuinely like. Their safety and comfort is my top priority. *any training services I offer are completely separate from Rover and unrelated to the services I provide here. If you are interested in behavior modification plans it will need to be discussed separately/privately. I am full time self employed and I have a wide range of availability and offerings. I have experience with care and training for many species I'm very consistent, will show up on time every time as expected and do what we have agreed will be done. I value my time and yours and you can rest assured knowing my clients animals are my top priority and I will treat your pets with the same high standard of care and attention that I give to my own. I am very proactive at the first sign of any issue and always grateful for the opportunity to meet new animals and their people!
About: I’m a student at Utah Valley University studying forensic science. I have always had a love for animals. When I was younger I wanted to be a veterinarian, but when I realized part of the job would be to put animals to sleep, I quickly changed my mind about what career I wanted to pursue. One of my goals in life is to be on a part time animal rescue team, and round up animals that have been abused or neglected and give them the love and care that they need. I have been caring for pets in people’s homes for 7 years now. I have references upon request. My clients say I’m reliable and sweet to their animals. And they always ask me back.

“Sophonie was great with our puppers. We felt really comfortable with the location on her home and the time she spent with our dog. She was available and able to take good care of Our dog and made us feel comfortable as she took good care of our doggy. She even sent pictures of our doggy for us to see that he was doing great and having fun with her dog. We would definitely utilize her services again.”
“I will definitely book with Margaret again. She took very good care of our Juno and kept in contact and sent pictures of Juno during our trip. I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her. :)”
“Heidi and her family took care of our dog Bucky for a week while we were out of town. She went above and beyond to make sure Bucky was safe and had a good time while he was there. We felt comfortable and confident leaving him with them for 5 days!”
“Our Chloe girl had the best time at Brittany's while we were away! Brittany was amazing at giving us daily updates as well as reaching out if there were any possible issues or concerns. We could tell that Chloe was taken care of very well and was very attentive to her needs, taking her for walks, paying attention to her eating habits, and so much more. We will definitely reach out to Brittany in the future when we are in need of someone to watch Chloe again.”
“Kristen was wonderful to work with. She took care of our older dog who has some anxieties and was great to check-in and give updates while we were gone. Will definitely use again!”
“Rebecca was awesome to work with. She kept me in the loop the entire time she had my boys and when I showed up they were still having fun. I would highly recommend her to her and will certainly be using her for boarding in the future!”
“Nemesis was great! She responded quickly and sent videos of our dogs. They looked happy and well taken care of. And her big backyard was a plus for our high energy dog! She was awesome”
About: I’ve always had a passion for animals! I’ve taken care of them from a very young age whether it be going for walks, grooming, bringing home strays, you name it! I have two dogs, two cats and three ferret's of my own and would love to help you with yours! 😊 I do work full time so I am available after work! Each day varies 7-1 (Mon, Tues, Fri) and 7-3:30 (Wed and Thur). Afternoons and evenings are very open! I’m also willing to work with you on days not marked as open, just let me know! ❤️ I would treat your animals as I treat me own- with plenty of love, interactive playtime and spoiled beyond belief! I’m trustworthy and dependable and have the softest of spots for animals!
“Harry usually comes home a little stressed after staying with other boarders, but this time he came home happy, relaxed, and completely himself. That says everything about the care he received—we’ll definitely trust this family with him again! Thank you!”
“Jessica was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond and made sure I had nothing to worry about while I was away. She will definitely be the first person I go to anytime I need to leave my dog.”
About: Hey I’m Jen! I love all animals and I know how important it is to find someone who cares when you need help! I have had animals my whole life and grew up in the country with horses, goats, dogs, cats, rabbits and ducks! I previously worked as a veterinary technician and have been running this business since 2021. I currently have 6 fur children, 2 horses and 4 working dogs. Helping animals is a passion of mine. So when I see a wandering, lost critter, you better believe I’m picking them up and getting them home! I am a working mom of two ages 14 & 12 who both love animals and help out a lot. When you board with me your fur babies are always taken care of. They can run in the huge backyard, swim in the dog pool, lay in the shade, play with the toys and go on walks during the day, then have their own private space at night to sleep. I am currently working a 48/96 rotating schedule so I have a lot of availability in between those days. I will always do all that I can to fit your pet care needs into my schedule. I have a fully fenced large backyard, private kennel space for each dog for sleeping, eating and rotation with those that are in heat, intact or don’t get along with others. In your home, I will always go above and beyond to meet your wishes and keep things as close to normal operations for your pet as possible to avoid disruption to their lives.
“Ashley and Michael were great to work with! You could tell by the pictures and videos they sent that our dog sunny really enjoyed her time with them! They were great at communicating and keeping us updated through out the week. We would definitely recommend and will be using them in the future!”
“This is the second time we’ve had Jason and Bridget watch our Jax while we were traveling! It’s so nice knowing he’s taken care of and loved on while we’re gone! We love the updates we get and Jax always comes home a tired boy from all the play!”
About: I have been watching animals for 16 years and have been surrounded by them my whole life. My husband and I have two dogs and two cats. We have trained our dogs ourselves. We have a fenced in back yard and lots of toys and mentally stimulating activities for dogs of all shapes and sizes! I don’t love when animals are lonely and locked in cages all day - so I want to help you as best as I can! I work from home off eastern time with occasional work trips. I’m pretty flexible during the week and can move my schedule around to accommodate you! I have a fenced in yard with two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. We also have two cats but they tend to hide when there’s a lot of commotion. I can crate your fur baby at your request! I am all for open and honest communication and would love to send you updates through the day!
“Our dog was well taken care of and they were easy to work with! We loved that they put an AirTag on her to ensure safety and keep tabs on her in case she hid or ran away. We definitely plan on using them again!”
