Megan was amazing I recently boarded my rescue Prince for the first time, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Megan took such amazing care of Prince during his two-night stay. She went above and beyond—sending me some of the best photos and videos I’ve ever had of him, including clips of him playing and socializing with larger dogs (which was a first for him!). It meant so much to see him having that kind of fun and confidence. Megan also kept me updated with daily “doggy report cards” and personalized notes, which were such a thoughtful touch. When I picked him up, it was clear he had an incredible time—he was almost sad to leave! He even made a new best friend with her dog, Kava. I’m so grateful for the care and attention Megan gave, and I will absolutely be booking with her again. Truly a 5-star experience from start to finish!

For being a first time user and having my dog watched for the first time, I'm absolutely overly satisfied with the services we received! Communication was there, the process of meeting and greeting was smooth and easy, pictures were sent to me throughout my vacation(I LOVED), and just having the overall feeling that my dog was okay safe and well taken care of was a big PLUS for me being on vacation on the other side of the world! I could sit here and write a whole paragraph or more on all of the positive and my experience but, I will keep it short and say I just HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Thank you again for your services!

Megan has truly been a life saver! This is my dog Sage’s second long stay with Megan and her family and Sage has been doing great and she loves it! She has been socializing very well with her two dogs and her family. Her anxiety has gotten better with every stay. Megan always keeps us updated with plenty of text and pictures. I will definitely be booking again soon. I highly recommend Megan. -Ross Family

I was scrambling to find dog boarding when my friend canceled on me at the last minute. I had no backup plan and actually thought I’d have to send my dog to a kennel for the week. Luckily, as I was looking up kennels, I found information on Rover. So this was my very first time using Rover and I was extremely nervous. Turns out, there was absolutely no reason for me to be. Rover is very easy to use and I was able to find Julie & Kenneth N’s information. After seeing/reading the positive reviews I made immediate plans to meet them and have them meet my Husky, Max. When Julie & Ken arrived, they were very friendly, easy to talk to and most importantly, they love dogs. I was able to book Max to stay with Julie & Ken for the entire week that we were on a family vacation. As promised, I got daily emails (with pictures) of how Max was doing and Julie even let me know how helpful Max was in the kitchen — by being watchful to ensure Julie didn’t drop anything while preparing lunch. I loved all of the text communications I received — Max was smiling in some of the pics. That put me at ease too. If you want top notch boarding for your dog, then I highly recommend this dog-loving duo. Your dog will be well taken care of and will be happy with Julie & Ken. In the future, whenever we need dog boarding, Julie & Ken will be my very first choice. I am sincerely grateful to them for their excellent care of Max.

You can tell Amanda really loves animals like her own. She took care of our two dogs while we were on an extended trip. She sent lots of updates. She also dealt with an increasingly worsening medical issue and took our dog to the hospital on our behalf. She kept us in the loop every step of the way and went above and beyond in caring for our pups!

About: I have had dogs and cats in my life since i was a baby! They have always been my bestfriend! I currently have 1 dog (a golden retriever) and 2 cats. And I’ve house sat for many many fiends for long periods of time. In my eyes i don’t see them as just animals but another member to the family. And that’s how i would treat your fur babies! You should feel comfortable leaving your fur babies in the hands of someone else when life becomes busy or you just need to get away. and i promise I will give your babies all the love and attention they deserve! I work weekdays but i get off early almost everyday with very flexible hours and I’m off every weekend. My work schedule is pretty flexible. I have loads of free time! I have a fenced in yards. My dog is an inside dog (the house belongs to her lol) i have 2 cats that wants to sit on everyone lap. My dog has full access to the house when I’m home and only the downstairs when I’m gone. The cats roam the house as they please but they love to be by my side more than anything! My dog spends so much time outside playing and gets a long walk every day!

What an incredible family taking care of our new puppy called Ziggy. We live abroad and needed a sitter until we could take him over full time. They were so easy to communicate with and so helpful with everything from change of food, treats, to teaching him demands and keeping him safe. He has been playing non stop with their house dog as well as with other dogs they have sat through the more than one month they took care of Ziggy. I can’t be thankful enough. Your dog will be safe with this family, I can assure you this! Thank you Maria & Matthew 🙏🏻

About: Cat sitting is a calm and rewarding experience. When I arrive, I make sure the cat has fresh food, water, and a clean litter box. At first, some cats may be shy and keep their distance, so I give them space and move gently around them. Over time, the cats become more comfortable. Some will come up for attention, while others prefer to relax nearby. I follow their routine and pay attention to their behavior to make sure they are happy and healthy. Cat sitting is about being patient, respectful, and making sure the cat feels safe and cared for while their owner is away.

About: I grew up with cats as a child and have rescued 3 within the last 5 years. One has unfortunately passed due to a heart condition. My other two came with some challenges that I worked with them on and they are now thriving. My one cat, we adopted as a kitten and was looked over by many people because she can be feisty. She’s since become the sweetest girl. My other cat i rescued as an adult at roughly 3 years old and he was extremely scared of people and noises. Since being in our home, he is cuddly, social, and so sweet.

Jessica had a truly fantastic stay in my home with my indoor/outdoor cat, Beans. Quite honestly I could not imagine a better sitter and I I have used many on this app over the years. She arranged a pre-visit to see the home and meet Beans, spent time to genuinely develop a connection with my pet, communicated her behavioral observations and commentary on Beans' personality and preferences, sent SO many updates and pictures, and she forgave my mistake in booking the reservation with incorrect check in times. 15/10 stars but really don't book her plz so she stays available for me k thx. Thank you Jessica.

Kelsie did an excellent job while I was out of town for a week. My kitties experienced a bit more separation anxiety than usual, and ended up making a huge mess of the front room. Kelsie informed me of it immediately and was super understanding of it. Since I wasn’t around my phone during that visit and couldn’t tell her where the cleaning sprays were, she waited till I was able to tell her where the items were. Then came back the next day to further clean up the floors! One of my kitties is very weary of new people and she did great with making sure not to stress her out too much.

Lauren took care of my sweet Bailey like she was her own. From the moment they met, Bailey was completely smitten, and I can’t blame her. Lauren has this calm, loving energy that dogs (and people) instantly trust. She made sure Bailey was happy, safe, and spoiled with attention, and I never once had to worry. She’s attentive, patient, and somehow knows exactly what a dog needs before they even ask for it. I swear Bailey was happier than ever when I came back from work... probably because she spent her days with someone who truly loves the animals she cares for.

About: Ive always been an animal lover from such a early age. I got my first dog when I was 10 years old and it was the most memorable day. Whenever I see animals strolling down the street I just have to stop and give them some love. I would really enjoy helping out with giving your animals love and attention while their mom and dad are away. Currently I am a single full time working mother to a fun and loving 5 year old. I have free time a couple days during the week and also on weekends. If I can make it work in my schedule I most def will! I prefer to bring the animals to my home and dog sit, but I am flexible. I like to think animals have feelings too. They deserve to be treated as part of the family and if Im responsible for the care of someones animal I feel as if Im responsible for someones loved one and treat the animals how I would want mine to be treated with respect and appreciation for the wonderful loyal creatures that they are.

All 3 dogs get fed 3 times a day as well so your dog will not go hungry if it needs fed multiple times a day. I am currently not working so the dogs will be my priority! No worries at all as the dogs will always be coming first in this household. I have a small fenced in yard for the dogs to go out. We also have a friendly dog park right out back of the house as well in which we take the dogs to frequently and know most of the dogs that go to the park as well. We have 3 stories so the dogs will get plenty of exercise going up and down the stairs as well.

About: Hey there! I'm a proud military member and animal shelter volunteer with 10+ years of experience caring for pets of all kinds—dogs, cats, and even the little critters! From playful puppies to sweet seniors, I’ve got the skills to handle it all. Need meds given or special diets followed? No problem! I’m all about keeping your pets happy, healthy, and stress-free. I’m big on communication, so you’ll always know how your fur-babies are doing. With me, it’s not just pet sitting—it’s personalized, loving care that gives you total peace of mind. Let’s make sure your pets have a tail-wagging good time while you’re away! Pet care is a central part of my daily and weekly routine. Each day, I dedicate specific times for walks, feedings, playtime, and any special needs such as administering medications or training sessions. I schedule my work and personal activities around my pet care responsibilities, ensuring that each pet receives consistent and attentive care. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate various needs, whether it's daily visits, overnight stays, or extended care. This dedication ensures that every pet in my care feels loved, safe, and well-attended to throughout the week. In my home, I create a safe and welcoming environment for pets by providing a designated area with comfortable bedding, toys, and plenty of space to roam. I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, walking, and playtime, ensuring each pet feels at home. I also have a secure backyard for supervised outdoor activities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions closely to maintain the pet’s usual routine. I ensure their environment is clean, provide fresh food and water, and engage in regular play and exercise. I also send daily updates and photos to keep owners informed about their pet’s well-being. My goal is to provide personalized, attentive care that meets each pet’s specific needs, whether at my home or theirs.

About: I enjoy fostering dogs to help get more information about their personalities and in turn help them get adopted. I have also been a dog sitter for family and friends for years. I enjoy practicing my dog training hobby. I believe the more training a dog has the happier they will be. They will know their boundaries and what makes their human happy thus creating a positive environment. I currently work full-time from home therefore daycare or walks are the most ideal services for me. If we have a good established relationship (human to human and dog to human) I am open to overnight says. I have a larger fenced yard however the fence is vertically challenged. I like and want to go for a couple walks a day. I have a daughter who loves dogs and is very good with them. She's a gentle and loves to help train, feed or just sit and pet them.

About: Ive always been an animal lover from such a early age. I got my first dog when I was 10 years old and it was the most memorable day. Whenever I see animals strolling down the street I just have to stop and give them some love. I would really enjoy helping out with giving your animals love and attention while their mom and dad are away. Currently I am a single full time working mother to a fun and loving 5 year old. I have free time a couple days during the week and also on weekends. If I can make it work in my schedule I most def will! I prefer to bring the animals to my home and dog sit, but I am flexible. I like to think animals have feelings too. They deserve to be treated as part of the family and if Im responsible for the care of someones animal I feel as if Im responsible for someones loved one and treat the animals how I would want mine to be treated with respect and appreciation for the wonderful loyal creatures that they are.

About: I’ve worked in the a vet hospital for 3 years , then moved to working in boarding and taking care of all sizes of dogs! I’m animal cpr certified. I don’t go to work until around 9 so I will come take care of your fur babies early in the morning then come back around 1pm to let them out for a mid day potty break. Then when I get off work I will come back over and take care of your fur baby and tuck them in for the night after they play and get their energy out. I have a 1 year old black and she used a leash and harness when we are outside unless we are playing with her toys. I’m very attentive to the surroundings before I let my fur baby off the leash.

About: What makes me different is the level of care, patience, and versatility I bring to every animal I look after. I’m not just here to cover the basics—I focus on making sure each animal feels safe, understood, and genuinely cared for. I’m experienced with a wide range of animals, from dogs and cats to large and farm animals like horses, goats, and chickens. This means I’m comfortable handling different routines, environments, and responsibilities with confidence. I also have a strong understanding of pets who need extra support, including seniors and those with anxiety. I take a calm, gentle approach, move at their pace, and prioritize building trust so they feel secure while you’re away. I pay close attention to small details—changes in behavior, appetite, or mood—so nothing gets overlooked. Combined with reliable communication and consistent updates, you can feel confident your animals are in capable, caring hands. Animals have been a constant part of my life, and caring for them is something I take seriously and genuinely enjoy. I provide reliable, attentive pet sitting for families who want their pets to feel safe, comfortable and loved while away. Whether it is daily walks, playtime, medication, or simply keeping them company, I focus on creating a calm, lovable and predictable routine that helps them feel secure. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, cats with all different personalities, small and large animals who need gentle, constant care. I pay close attention to behavior changes, eating habits, and comfort levels so you always know how your pet is doing. Communication matters a great deal, so I send updates, photos, and notes to keep you connected. My goal is simple, to treat your pet like they are my own and make those time away as stress-free as possible! I provide loving, reliable sitting, giving your pet a safe, calm, and comfortable place to stay while you’re away. I treat them as part of my own pets. Keeping routines consistent and their environment peaceful.

About: I’ve grown up in a home that has always had animals, so pet care has never felt foreign to me—it’s just been part of daily life. At one point, my family had 10 cats at once, which taught me early on how different personalities, medical needs, and stress levels can all exist under one roof. I have experience with animals across the spectrum, from easygoing to highly complex. I’ve cared for aggressive, anxious, and picky cats, high-energy and very barky dogs, as well as pets who need extra patience, structure, or medical support. I stay calm, observant, and adaptable, especially when care isn’t straightforward. My hands-on experience includes: • 10+ years fostering kittens, including bottle babies as young as two weeks old • Caring for ill, elderly, and special-needs animals, including those with mobility challenges • Supporting pets with trauma histories, OCD or stress-related behaviors, inappropriate elimination, and extreme touch sensitivity • Administering medications confidently (pills and liquids to cats and dogs) • Moderate experience with subdermal fluids and injections for kittens and cats • Caring for pets post-surgery, coming off anesthesia, or on sedative medications • Providing daily care for animals who could not walk independently or needed frequent monitoring and cleanups I’m comfortable with situations that are emotionally or physically demanding and don’t get overwhelmed when things are messy, slow, or unpredictable. My priority is always safety, consistency, and helping pets feel as secure and understood as possible. I am a part-time nanny with a very flexible schedule. I am available to walk your dogs, check on your pets, or stay with them in your home most nights. I understand the importance of finding someone you can trust to take care of a member of your family while you are away and want to provide the best care for your pets so you can truly relax. Having had a Chow Chow mix growing up, I have experience with both intense and anxious dispositions, and I know when to take a dog’s behavior personally or not. I am an easy going, adaptable care-taker, but I will also play as much as your dog likes! I will give them such good care, your pets will look forward to your next trip!

Will appreciate details such as age, allergies, health, likes and dislikes. Will treat your baby/babies like they are my own.

About: What sets me apart is the presence and care I bring to every interaction. With 15+ years of hands-on experience across a wide range of animals—dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs—I’m not just pet sitting, I’m attuning. I notice the little things: a shift in behavior, a need for extra cuddles, or when it’s time to give space. My calm, loving energy helps animals feel safe and understood. I don’t rush through visits—I show up fully, giving your pet the same patience and warmth I give my own. As a homeschool mom with a flexible schedule and a peaceful home environment, pet sitting fits naturally into my life. I’m home most of the day, which means your pet gets consistent attention, companionship, and care—not just quick check-ins. Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, and it brings joy and balance to our rhythm at home. Whether it’s daily drop-ins or extended stays, I have the time, space, and heart to give your pet the presence they deserve. Whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in yours, my approach is rooted in calm, attentive, and loving presence. In my home, they’ll enjoy a relaxed, pet-friendly environment with plenty of snuggles, play, and quiet time—whatever makes them feel safe and happy. If I’m coming to you, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible, respecting their space and energy. I treat every animal like family and always follow your instructions with care and attention to detail. We have a fenced in yard, and plenty of walkable sidewalks.

About: I grew up with and have worked with animals all of my life - dogs, cats, horses, guinnea pigs, hamsters, cattle, etc. I became a licensed veterinary technician 13 years ago and love seeing the furry faces that bring so much joy to so many. I have experience with all ages of animals, but have a special place in my heart for older kids. If you need help with your fur-child, I’m here! I’m between things right now, figuring life out. I’m pretty open besides when I have my daughter. I’m currently dog-less so seeing your puppy will really make my day! I want the time you are away from your pup to be as comfortable as possible. I will do whatever it is that will accomplish that. A schedule is so very important to them so let’s keep it!

About: I have been around dogs since I was little - helping my dad train hunting dogs, dogsitting for family & friends, etc. I am a lifetime vegetarian and animal rights activist. I am a full time student, and when I am not at my day job, I enjoy long hikes with my Beagle. Rover is a fun and rewarding way to incorporate work and play into my days off. I always view animals with the utmost respect and gentility. My household is very serene and I try to spread that wherever I go. I can ensure I will treat others' homes and pets like my own.

Nikolaas has been amazing with our two dogs. Both our boys are older (aka stubborn) and can have a lot of energy on a leash. Nikolaas’ energy calms them and he redirects them perfectly so they enjoy their walks stress free. They enjoy seeing Nikolaas when he arrives. They became instant friends. Nikolaas was very thorough in his interview with us and asked a lot of questions. We asked a lot of questions too and feel very happy we chose him as a walker and a friend to our dogs.

Megan was amazing I recently boarded my rescue Prince for the first time, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Megan took such amazing care of Prince during his two-night stay. She went above and beyond—sending me some of the best photos and videos I’ve ever had of him, including clips of him playing and socializing with larger dogs (which was a first for him!). It meant so much to see him having that kind of fun and confidence. Megan also kept me updated with daily “doggy report cards” and personalized notes, which were such a thoughtful touch. When I picked him up, it was clear he had an incredible time—he was almost sad to leave! He even made a new best friend with her dog, Kava. I’m so grateful for the care and attention Megan gave, and I will absolutely be booking with her again. Truly a 5-star experience from start to finish!

For being a first time user and having my dog watched for the first time, I'm absolutely overly satisfied with the services we received! Communication was there, the process of meeting and greeting was smooth and easy, pictures were sent to me throughout my vacation(I LOVED), and just having the overall feeling that my dog was okay safe and well taken care of was a big PLUS for me being on vacation on the other side of the world! I could sit here and write a whole paragraph or more on all of the positive and my experience but, I will keep it short and say I just HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Thank you again for your services!

Megan has truly been a life saver! This is my dog Sage’s second long stay with Megan and her family and Sage has been doing great and she loves it! She has been socializing very well with her two dogs and her family. Her anxiety has gotten better with every stay. Megan always keeps us updated with plenty of text and pictures. I will definitely be booking again soon. I highly recommend Megan. -Ross Family

You can tell Amanda really loves animals like her own. She took care of our two dogs while we were on an extended trip. She sent lots of updates. She also dealt with an increasingly worsening medical issue and took our dog to the hospital on our behalf. She kept us in the loop every step of the way and went above and beyond in caring for our pups!

I was pleasantly surprised in the level of care and love extended to Kodi. We had several disappointments with kennel service. Lisa’s care for Kodi was outstanding. I am so happy I decided to try Rover and picked Lisa. She is the greatest!!!

About: I have had dogs and cats in my life since i was a baby! They have always been my bestfriend! I currently have 1 dog (a golden retriever) and 2 cats. And I’ve house sat for many many fiends for long periods of time. In my eyes i don’t see them as just animals but another member to the family. And that’s how i would treat your fur babies! You should feel comfortable leaving your fur babies in the hands of someone else when life becomes busy or you just need to get away. and i promise I will give your babies all the love and attention they deserve! I work weekdays but i get off early almost everyday with very flexible hours and I’m off every weekend. My work schedule is pretty flexible. I have loads of free time! I have a fenced in yards. My dog is an inside dog (the house belongs to her lol) i have 2 cats that wants to sit on everyone lap. My dog has full access to the house when I’m home and only the downstairs when I’m gone. The cats roam the house as they please but they love to be by my side more than anything! My dog spends so much time outside playing and gets a long walk every day!

Mckayla did such an amazing job watching my Willow over the holiday weekend. The updates were consistent and the photographs were adorable. You could see how happy and comfortable she was spending the night and playing with the other dogs. We will be boarding with Mckayla again!

What an incredible family taking care of our new puppy called Ziggy. We live abroad and needed a sitter until we could take him over full time. They were so easy to communicate with and so helpful with everything from change of food, treats, to teaching him demands and keeping him safe. He has been playing non stop with their house dog as well as with other dogs they have sat through the more than one month they took care of Ziggy. I can’t be thankful enough. Your dog will be safe with this family, I can assure you this! Thank you Maria & Matthew 🙏🏻

Top Notch as usual, Wesley "Whitney" B. keeps you updated with what your pup is up to via pictures, video and brief written updates. Bryson, my dog, gets lots of play time with other dogs, attention and walks.

This was our first time leaving our puppy, and it seems that we weren't missed at all. James was very professional during the booking process, and was very thorough in making sure he understood everything he needed to know about Otis (who is very low maintenance, but I appreciated James' attention to detail.) I wish I had more to constructively report, but when everything goes exactly according to plan, all that remains for me to say is "Thanks, James!!!"

Absolutely wonderful! My spoiled and picky old man stayed with Lillian and Timothy for the first time, and I could not have asked for better and more considerate care. They cleverly found ways to get him to take his medication when he was being fussy with his usual turkey wraps. And they sent lots of pictures of him enjoying walks, having cozy naps, and getting plenty of attention and love. 10/10 recommend!
