About: Hi! I’m Deena, a devoted pet lover who understands how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family members. I provide a safe, loving home where your pet will receive plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and regular photo updates while you’re away. I believe boarding should feel like a sleepover, not a kennel. My goal is for every dog to feel safe, comfortable, and treated like part of the family. Whether your dog loves walks, backyard playtime, or simply relaxing indoors, I’ll make sure they feel happy, secure, and right at home. • I’m available for boarding seven days a week. • I’m self-employed, so I’m home most of the day and typically only out for a few hours at a time. • As an empty nester, my home is quiet with no young children, allowing me to provide plenty of attention and supervision for your pet. • I have a fully fenced yard with a doggy door and share my home with my two friendly resident dogs, Jasper (Pomchi) and Buster (young Corgi), along with my cat, GG. • Both of my dogs are friendly and well-socialized, and GG generally prefers to keep to himself. • I carefully supervise introductions and can keep pets separated using gates and crates if needed, so every pet feels comfortable and safe. • I only accept one family’s dog(s) at a time. This allows me to provide individualized attention, a calm environment, and a less stressful experience for every guest. • Every guest receives one-on-one attention, plenty of affection, regular playtime, and photo updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy and comfortable.
“We loved Jocelyn! She took care of our two malamute/German shepherds and kept us updated on how they were doing. She was always mindful and very kind to share pictures. We would hire her again.”
“Justine was amazing with our dog! He looked extremely happy and comfortable to be around her and her dogs, and we had great updates on him everyday. I highly recommend!”

“We are so pleased with the service Brianna provided to our two cats. When we got back home after a 7 day vacation they were happy and clearly well cared for. Each of our cats require a different kibble and one takes a pill once per day. She provided twice per day visits and sent photos daily. We will definitely rebook with Brianna.”

About: Hi! I’ve always loved animals of all shapes and sizes. From grumpy elders, introverted and awkward, to overcuddly (actually, I don't think it's possible for dogs to be overcuddly, haha), to high-energy pups, I love them all! I have experience caring for dogs with reactivity, aggression, fearfulness, anxiety, and medical needs . Dogs who may be misunderstood or who require extra patience are welcome! As someone who has had a reactive dog, I understand the struggle it can be to find someone to trust your pet with.

In a client’s home, I will respect your space and follow your instructions closely. I’m comfortable with detailed routines, leash safety, medication instructions, feeding needs, and dogs who require extra patience or boundaries. I will always pay attention to your pet’s body language and comfort level, and I’ll treat them with patiencr and respect.
“Clare was awesome working with my older cat with health issues. They were great at following my kitty’s routine, making sure she got her medication and keeping me in the loop during the whole process. We can’t wait to have them back!”
About: As a proud cat parent to two happy, healthy, and very spoiled cats, I understand that every cat has their own unique personality, routine, and preferences. Whether your cat loves to play, prefers quiet companionship, or simply wants someone to keep their routine consistent, I'll provide the care they need while you're away. I'm experienced with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes thoroughly, administering oral medications if needed, and making sure cats get plenty of attention or space and based on what makes them happiest. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, so I'll treat your cat as if they were my own. You'll receive regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your cat is happy, healthy, and well cared for until you return home.
“Jessica did an excellent job watching my two kittens. She paid close attention to my care instructions and made sure to send lots of pictures and detailed check ins. I'd definitely use her again.”

About: I’m a reliable and caring cat sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with cats of all personalities. I understand how important it is to keep your pet comfortable and safe while you’re away, and I’m committed to following your instructions closely to maintain your cat’s routine. I’ve had hands-on experience caring for a variety of cats, including my aunt’s cat with pancreatitis, where I paid close attention to feeding needs, clean up, and overall comfort. I’ve also looked after my roommate’s high-energy cat, making sure they got plenty of playtime and stimulation, as well as my best friend’s newly adopted stray kitten, helping them adjust with patience and gentle care. I can help with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, and giving your cat attention, playtime, or space, depending on their needs. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive to behavior changes, so I’ll make sure your cat stays happy and stress-free. Whether your cat is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between, I’ll treat them with kindness and respect as if they were my own. I’m also happy to provide updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“Michelle was great with our cats! They really enjoyed their time with her and put us at peace if mind they would be taken care of while we were gone. Will certainly be using again in the future!!”

About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old, helping friends and family with walks, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. Being around animals has always come naturally to me - I truly fall in love with every pet meet. I’m currently studying for the ASVAB For the Airforce I have so much time in my hands, to distract myself a bit I have my dogs to keep I’m in Check and on my toes to remind me I’m not alone! I have a decent size yard for all 4 of my dogs, 2 of my pups play with my pitbull who is very playful. I do have a senior dog who hates being bothered he loves being alone in his crate, I try my best to take him out more but he rather stay in there. I also have some experience of cleaning houses I house sat for my aunt she told me I didn’t need to clean but I did anyway I can tell she was very grateful. I'm patient, attentive, and understand that every dog has their own personality and routine. Whether your pup needs long walks to burn energy, extra cuddles, or help reinforcing potty training, I'm happy to provide consistent, loving care.
“My flight got delayed. My cats were in such good care. I got update photos regularly so my anxiety was under control and I loved my vacation even more knowing they were happy. Thank you so much!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for about 8 years now and have owned my Bernese Mountain Dog, Santana, for 5 years. Santana went through intense training in her first year and is also helpful in taking care of and training other dogs. We’re excited to meet and take care of your dogs! My husband and I work full time from home so someone is always home to keep an eye on the dogs. I own 1 dog so it is required that your dog must do well with other dogs. I have a fenced backyard and a dog to keep your dog company. I have two extra rooms in my house if you request for your dog to sleep in a crate or in another room. We are flexible in the time we wake up and go to sleep so we can meet whatever needs your dog is looking for.
“Chloe was so great with our dog Rusty! She helped us with him for 2 days and Rusty was excited to see her when he returned to her. She was interactive with Rusty and took pictures of him throughout their time together. I also appreciated that she reported about his BMs so I knew he was well digestively too. What a blessing it was so find her!!”

“My boys really enjoyed their stay! They normally don’t settle so easy so that tells me that they were very comfortable with you! Thank you so much for taking great care of my boys!”
“Elizabeth was great. She communicated great throughout the day on how my dog was doing. She was very flexible with pickup and drop off. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Leo seemed to have a great time with Alexis! She took good care of him with his separation anxiety. She was communicative beforehand and great at sending updates and photos!”
“Tea was great!! She took my pup very last minute and was super easy to work with! Bell seemed to have a blast and she even took the pups to the park! Will definitely be bringing my girl back!!”
“Loved the photos at the end of the day! Poppy was with M.K. M. for 2 consecutive days and she was excited to go back on the second day! Also Poppy went straight to bed when we got home so 10/10 experience.”
“We had a fantastic experience with Cari as Moo's babysitter! She was incredibly responsive—we were able to book her less than six hours before pick-up time, which was a lifesaver. Cari is so sweet and made sure to keep us updated throughout the stay. Her care and attention gave us complete peace of mind. Highly recommend!”
“We are travelling from Texas to Utah and ski resorts don't allow pets on the ski area so we need some place safe for our fur baby. Gracie did an amazing job and treated our pet as her own. She constantly updates us and that reduces our anxiety. Highly recommended 👌 very professional. She can accommodate unneutered 🐕 pet”
“Michelle was amazing with my dog and wonderful to work with! She went above and beyond, taking great care of my dog including special diet and medications, frequent walks, giving him lots of love and attention. She sent lots of photos and updates, and in every one I could tell my (often anxious) dog was relaxed and having a great time! Beyond that, she was so generous and accommodating when I had some unexpected scheduling changes. Truly grateful for her and highly recommend.”
“Rachel is absolutely amazing, my puppy loves going to her house. She always sends updates and pictures of my lil guy and is the sweetest little lady I love working with her. She's my 1st pick always 😁”
“Maggie was very easy to communicate with and was very accommodating to both our dogs needs and our schedule. Her home was perfect for both play and relaxing for our dogs. We would certainly look to use Maggie again.”
“Tracey is awesome! We rescued a sweet and shy girl last year. When we reached out to Tracey, she was very patient and understanding. During the meet-and-greet, she and her pack warmly welcomed our shy girl and Tracey gave us a tour of her house and yard. By the end of the meet-and-greet, our girl was trying to play with all of the dogs which was a great sign. When it came to the first dog sitting day, Tracey sent pictures and updates on a regular basis. We were very assured that our girl was in great hands. When we picked her up the next day, Tracey said that she played a lot with her pack, so she was very tired the rest of the evening, which is super awesome for us! Hopefully, with time, our shy girl will eagerly anticipate going to Tracey's. I highly recommend Tracey as a dog sitter. She has great knowledge on dog behavior and can address it to create a warm and comforting environment. Thank you!”
“divine is so kind. she always makes sure that santiago is well loved and cared for. any time i drop santiago off, he is so excited. one thing is that my dog has a hard time eating at other places. divine always tries to make him feel safe and is willing to try lots of different foods with them. overall, i feel confident that santiago is being well cared for while staying with divine.”
“I had a wonderful experience with this dog sitter! My dogs were very happy in her care and were excited to go back each morning, which gave me a lot of confidence that they were being well looked after. She was reliable, communicative, and kept me updated with photos and even the routes they took on their walks. It was great to see what they were up to throughout the day. One day, one of my dogs rolled in something particularly messy, and she took the time to get her cleaned up before I picked her up. That extra level of care was really appreciated. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
About: *I currently have a 4 year old, neutered male, Border Collie mix* (If booking for 4 days or more, I prefer to bring him with me. If it's less than 4 days I can work with leaving him at home.) I've had dogs in my life since I was about 8 years old. My mom bred our dogs and I would help her. I helped to birth the puppies, feed and wash them, weigh them and track their progress, train and care for them. Since I was 18 I've adopted six dogs. One of them was deaf and blind when I adopted her. I've never been the first home for any of my doggos but I've been the best/most loving final home for all of them. I work part time and have plenty of time to spend with animals. I usually take my dog out for a stretch/potty every couple of hours and we walk at least once a day. I'm constantly looking for new parks and fun places to play. I have a three year old Border Collie mix that gets along well with other dogs and cats. The yard is fenced but there's no doggy door. I have some crates of various sizes if needed. The fur babies are allowed on the bed and all of the furniture at my house. I frequently pet/house sit for a Pitbull mix and she's one of my dogs besties. She has medication and a special diet. I've also frequently had my dad's dogs visit. So my dog is used to both having separate food and sharing in a communal pack. Whenever we pet/house sit we follow their house rules (i.e. - no dogs on the furniture or in the kitchen, etc). I'm trusted with keys to multiple homes and never stop by unless asked to.
“Amy and her family are the best! They love all the dogs that come by and they are so patient and sweet with my Ellie. Amy is so understanding and sweet and flexible!! They really are the best!❤️”

“Great first meet n greet! My dog has never come toward the front door to a person- even me lol She came right up to Cari and there was zero anxiety. She was so happy when she got back.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and am completely comfortable with dogs of all sizes, especially large breeds. Whether your dog needs a structured walk, basic reinforcement of good behavior, or attentive drop-in care while you’re away, I provide reliable, capable support. I also offer morning feedings during walks if your routine requires it, ensuring your dog is fed, walked, and settled right on schedule. Beyond standard care, I bring extensive hands-on experience administering medications including insulin injections and complex treatments such as chemotherapy—giving you total peace of mind if your pup has specialized medical needs. I’m confident handling different temperaments and energy levels, and I always prioritize safety, consistency, and clear, proactive communication with owners. Let’s team up to keep your dog happy, healthy, and thriving! I offer consistent, reliable care and am available for walks and drop-ins. You can expect a steady routine tailored to your dog's needs, including feeding, exercise, and any required medications. I prioritize clear, proactive communication with timely updates and photos during every visit so you always know your pup is doing well. Every service is approached with a strict focus on safety, consistency, and respect for your dog's unique temperament. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly, well-managed dogs. I’m experienced introducing dogs safely and can separate or crate as needed based on temperament and owner preference. I maintain a structured, low-stress environment and closely supervise all interactions. I follow owner instructions carefully, including feeding routines, medications, and activity levels. Clean, secure, and safety-focused at all times.
“I’m a healthcare traveler working in town for only 9 weeks. I needed someone reliable to walk my dog while I worked long shifts. Alyssa was wonderful with my dog, reliable, kind and available for last minute requests if I had to work late. She answered texts quickly and was wonderful with my dog and crazy schedule! Highly recommend.”
“I can’t recommend Natalie highly enough! She has been an absolute lifesaver for me and my dog, Blue. From the very first walk, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. Blue can be a little energetic and stubborn at times, but Natalie handles him with so much patience, confidence, and kindness—it’s honestly impressive. She is always punctual, reliable, and communicates consistently, sending updates and photos that give me total peace of mind while I’m away. It’s such a great feeling knowing that Blue is not only getting exercise, but also getting attention, affection, and someone who truly enjoys spending time with him. Natalie goes above and beyond every time—whether it’s making sure Blue has fresh water, giving him extra playtime, or just noticing little things about his behavior and keeping me informed. You can tell she takes pride in what she does, and it shows in the way she treats every walk like it matters. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely passionate about dogs, Natalie is the one. I’m so grateful we found her on Rover, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for top-notch care for their pet.”
About: I always take care dogs for my friends and family and also my neighbors. I have a border collie so I am an experienced dog sitter. I can walk your dog, play with your dog, bring them to dog park, etc… anything to fulfill your request! I work from home full time, which gives me flexible schedule and allows me accommodate pet care throughout the day. Weather it’s a morning dog walk, a midday drop in visit, or an evening check in.

I'll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any special preferences your pet has. I understand that every pet is unique, so I adjust my approach based on their personality, whether they love to play, enjoy cuddles, or simply prefer a calm, quiet companion. I also treat every client's home with the same respect I would my own. I'll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, clean up after them, keep their living area tidy, and ensure your home is secure before I leave. Throughout each visit, I'll send photo and video updates so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind while you're away.
“Jenna was right on time for tuckers walk and took the time to do a meet and greet a few days prior to the walk so we could all meet, which I appreciated a ton.s She was punctual, knowledgeable and easy going. Thank you Jenna!”
About: I love animals and have always been the go-to for friends and family when pet sitting. I had a senior cat that required daily injections and medications for many years, so I’m happy to work with senior pets who may need medications and other special TLC. I don’t have space for a dog of my own right now, so helping out with others’ makes me so happy! I work full time for a gardening organization, but my days and work hours are flexible so it’s easy to fit your pet and their needs into my day. I mostly work outside, and my office is pet friendly, so if your pup doesn’t like to be left alone, I can always bring them with! I have a fenced backyard and am happy to have your dog in my space. I prefer to sit dogs at their houses so they’re in spaces they know and aren’t stressed in, but am always happy to bring pups to my house or with me on my day.

About: Hi! I’m Evelyn, a lifelong animal lover and proud pet mom to three friendly dogs and three cats. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your pet loves playing fetch, going on long walks, or simply curling up for cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels—from tiny lap dogs to large, active breeds like Huskies and Australian Shepherds. I work part-time four evenings a week (Monday–Wednesday and Saturday from 4–10 PM). On Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays, I’m home all day. For boarding, your pet will still have company while I’m at work. My husband is home during my evening shifts, so our home is rarely empty. We work together to make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, potty breaks, exercise, and love throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We have a fully fenced yard for supervised playtime and three friendly resident dogs who love making new friends. Introductions are always done slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable. If your pet is crate trained, I’m happy to crate them when requested or if it’s part of their normal routine. Otherwise, pets are welcome to relax with us in the home. We also have baby gates throughout the house, allowing us to separate pets whenever needed for everyone’s comfort and safety.
About: I provide calm, attentive, and reliable pet care tailored to each animal’s needs. I had my own dog for 13 years, who passed away last year, giving me deep understanding of lifelong care and companionship. I’ve also been a dog foster and worked with multiple rescue groups, caring for dogs with a wide range of temperaments, including shy, anxious, and high-energy personalities. In addition, I have extensive pet sitting experience with all kinds of animals. I’m comfortable with daily routines, walks, playtime, and basic medications, and I bring patience, presence, and genuine care to every pet I look after. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to prioritize visits, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m able to adjust my availability as needed, which helps me be reliable for both last-minute and recurring bookings. I structure my week around my commitments so I can give each pet consistent, attentive care without feeling rushed. This flexibility allows me to provide dependable support and maintain a calm, present energy with every animal I care for. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every pet care situation. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely to keep the pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times and never take risks during walks or outdoor time. I keep a close eye on behavior, appetite, and energy levels so I can quickly notice if something feels off. I also maintain cleanliness in feeding areas and litter boxes, and ensure pets always have fresh water and a comfortable environment. My goal is to create a safe, grounded presence so pets feel secure, cared for, and at ease while their owners are away.
About: Fully fenced property! Lifelong animal lover. I work at a local pet store where I continue to educate myself on pet health and wellness. At home, I have a fur and feather fam of dogs, cats and chickens. (Chickens are in a part of the property the pups can’t get to). I understand how scary it is to leave your loved ones while you’re away, so I make sure to give them all the loves and pets they deserve while the parents go play! High communication is key to me! I currently only work 2 small shifts a week, so I am home most days to care for your babes! We do daily walks around the school behind me and get lots of love and treats! Comfortable giving meds if needed and working with specialized diets I have a fully fenced yard and 2 friendly pups! As I have been watching friends dogs for years, my cats are used to having dogs come and go. They keep their distance with unknown pups. Any pup that visits my home gets lots of treats, lots of love and a couple new play buddies to run around the yard with!
About: I've been caring for pets for over 15 years, both as an owner and a trusted sitter. I currently have a Lab/Collie mix named Coleslaw, so I know how important it is to find someone who will care for your dog like they're family. Whether it's long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or sticking to your dog's routine, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away. You'll also get plenty of photo updates, so you can relax knowing they're in good hands. Pet care is already a part of my everyday routine, so fitting in walks, playtime, feedings, and plenty of attention comes naturally. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate your pet's needs, whether that's sticking to a specific routine, providing frequent potty breaks, or simply spending quality time with them to keep them happy and comfortable. Every pet is different, so I do my best to follow their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. Whether I'm caring for them in my home or yours, I'll make sure they have plenty of exercise, playtime, attention, fresh water, and lots of affection. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality, respect any feeding or medication instructions, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how they're doing.
About: I’ve spent over two years volunteering with Hearts 4 Paws and later worked at PetSmart for a year and a half, which gave me hands on experience caring for animals and tips/tricks to better care for your pets. I’ve fostered and successfully found homes for cats, and I’ve also pet sat dogs of all sizes and breeds. I truly believe animals are family and deserve to be cared for as such. I’m a college student so I will have plenty of time to give your fur baby all the attention and love they need. I’m pretty flexible with my schedule as long as I get a little heads up! I treat both your pets and your home with the utmost care. I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of love, attention, and playtime, while keeping your home clean, tidy, and just as you left it.
About: I love dogs and have grown up with them all my life. I believe they are just children in dog bodies. I have two dogs of my own so I know how important it is to trust the person that is caring for them. I am experienced with puppies and with older dogs.
About: My family has owned dogs since I was about 4 years old. I currently have a 12 year old dog that I love to take on long walks. I have been dog sitting for my family a few times a year for about 10 years and would love to help out with yours! I have a fairly flexible job so as long as I am given enough notice I would be happy to fit in a walk/drop in visit for your animals! I am interested in Dog walking more than anything but my number one priority is making sure the pet I am with feels safe and comfortable. I am very careful to watch body language and if they don't like something, I will do whatever I can to make sure it stops happening.
“Kady was so sweet and kind to Russ. I can tell that he absolutely adored her. She was very professional and flexible with the changes I wanted to make. Will def book a walk with her again.”

“She’s always been amazing with my rambunctious pup and also has great advice/recommendations! She knows what she’s doing and how to keep your pup safe and happy while you’re away”
“We couldn't have asked for a better sitter than Nicole! She took amazing care of our dog for a full week, and leaving was completely stress-free thanks to her. She sent daily photos and updates that kept us smiling and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our pup was so happy and well-loved the entire time. We will definitely be reaching out to Nicole again in the future!”
“Lucy had a fantastic time during her stay! Alaetria was extremely accommodating and made sure she did whatever she could to make Lucy feel at home. Highly recommended!”

“I am so happy people like Amber exist. My mind was completely at ease while we were out of town. She welcomes our fur baby in our home and gave him so much love. She has plenty of beds, toys and gives the babies so much attention. I appreciated all the pics and updates and know I made the right decision choosing her! Buster loves her and her family!!”
About: Hi! I’m Deena, a devoted pet lover who understands how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family members. I provide a safe, loving home where your pet will receive plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and regular photo updates while you’re away. I believe boarding should feel like a sleepover, not a kennel. My goal is for every dog to feel safe, comfortable, and treated like part of the family. Whether your dog loves walks, backyard playtime, or simply relaxing indoors, I’ll make sure they feel happy, secure, and right at home. • I’m available for boarding seven days a week. • I’m self-employed, so I’m home most of the day and typically only out for a few hours at a time. • As an empty nester, my home is quiet with no young children, allowing me to provide plenty of attention and supervision for your pet. • I have a fully fenced yard with a doggy door and share my home with my two friendly resident dogs, Jasper (Pomchi) and Buster (young Corgi), along with my cat, GG. • Both of my dogs are friendly and well-socialized, and GG generally prefers to keep to himself. • I carefully supervise introductions and can keep pets separated using gates and crates if needed, so every pet feels comfortable and safe. • I only accept one family’s dog(s) at a time. This allows me to provide individualized attention, a calm environment, and a less stressful experience for every guest. • Every guest receives one-on-one attention, plenty of affection, regular playtime, and photo updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy and comfortable.
“We loved Jocelyn! She took care of our two malamute/German shepherds and kept us updated on how they were doing. She was always mindful and very kind to share pictures. We would hire her again.”
“Justine was amazing with our dog! He looked extremely happy and comfortable to be around her and her dogs, and we had great updates on him everyday. I highly recommend!”
“Maverick had an awesome time with Mandi and her cute family! He spent the entire weekend playing fetch, playing with their sweet dog, Hank, and getting lots of loves. Mandi sent me pictures and updates and I knew he was happy, healthy, and safe. Definitely recommend, and we will absolutely take Mav to stay with them again!”
“Megan was amazing with our dog Ellie. This was our first extended stay away from our dog and we didn’t worry about her at all! We knew Megan would take good care of her. Ellie came home happy and worn out! We will be using Megan again.”
“Jordan came through for me when my sitter had to cancel on me at the last minute. My dog was well taken care of and seemed very happy when I came to pick her up. 10 out of 10 would recommend!!”
