“Bertie was amazing! I have a new rescue dog and he and the family were so gracious with Dolly. It let my husband and I relax and enjoy Charlotte while we were visiting! They sent a bunch of pictures to show she was in good hands (even tho she is a handful) Highly recommend!!!”
“My husband and I travel most places with our fur babies and finding local Rovers when they can't check-in with us. While we have had good success finding trusting and loving sitters, we really were blessed to meet Mark and Daniel. Their attention to detail prior to our pets arrival, their ability to be flexible when my scheduling mistake was uncovered, but most importantly, the level of care my pups received was top-notch. The home is clean, fenced in large yard and they really love what they do. I don't know if we will be back in that area, but if we are I will re-book with Mark and Daniel.”
“Ellie had another awesome stay last week. I am so glad to be able to leave my little houndy girl with Katina, who treats her like part of her own family. Thanks! Highly recommended without reservations of any kind. Brian”
“Jesse and Emily were fantastic with Kimber. Great communication with me and all the love and spoiling for Kimber. I love how they made her part of their family for the long weekend!”
“Wonderful experience ! Heather and her family were very welcoming and accommodating. They were flexible and extended the stay for our dogs when we needed to stay an extra day. The dogs were very happy and enjoyed playing with her little girls. I will definitely request Heather when we board our pups.”
“Michelle sent regular updates and photos of my three dogs. She was also flexible during pick up, accommodating an unexpected travel delay. My dogs were well cared for and happy when I picked them up. I would definitely recommend her to others.”
“Svitlana was wonderful! She clearly knows and loves dogs. She was patient with settling our dog in and then went above and beyond with helping to get her energy expended. We loved seeing pictures of her happily playing. So thankful for the care!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our shy mini doxie! Danielle was incredibly responsive and sent us daily updates with photos that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Despite booking last minute, she was flexible and accommodating with our schedule. She handled our pup’s shy nature with patience and care, and we could tell our dog felt comfortable with her. We highly recommend Danielle’s services and will definitely book with her again!”
“Tamara and her family were wonderful with my boys. I was nervous leaving them with someone new for the first time. Copper is sometimes unsure of strangers but she assured me he would do just fine. They took great care of them & I felt comfortable leaving them in their hands.”
“Hillary provided updates including photos and videos of my pup Daisy at a cadence that kept me worry free but was not excessive. Daisy came home happy and looked well cared for. Will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Jenny sent me updates and pictures of my dog while I was gone. She took my dog with her throughout parts of the day around the stables. Drop off and pick up went smoothly. She was great!”
“This is our second time choosing Ava as Luna's caregiver. She was great with sending us updates (she sent videos and pictures). And Luna always looks so happy and comes home all overjoyed !”
“I highly recommend Aly B. She quickly answered all of my questions, both before and during my dog’s stay, sent daily photos, and kept my high energy dog safe and happy. A few days after my dog’s stay, Sunshine saw Aly and was so excited to see her, confirming that Aly provided a welcoming environment for my dog during her stay. I will definitely use Aly again to care for my fur baby.”
“Yana is amazing! She took such great care of my dog and sent daily pictures and updates which gave me peace of mind that he was happy and healthy while I was away. Highly recommend her!”
“I did a lot of homework and reviewing of boarders for my 1.5-year-old, 70 lb. Aussie/golden before landing on Robin because of her amazing reviews and years of experience. We had just had a terrible board and train situation leaving him with some pressure sores and anxiety. I am so glad I chose Robin though. She allowed me to come out a month before booking to see her facilities, get to know me and my pup, and to explain how his days would be going. Ollie looked so incredibly comfortable around her then I started calling our vacation his summer camp. She sent pictures almost daily of Ollie running around and playing with other pups. He came back to me 5 lb. lighter than before because of it (he needed it!) and I can also tell that she kept up with his training that we have been working on which I greatly appreciated. He actually looked disappointed to go home! We will of course be back and will tell everyone we know who needs a boarder! Thank you, Robin!”
About: Hi! I’m new to Rover and am currently trying to build my portfolio. I volunteered at the Cincinnati Animal Shelter for 3 consecutive years before I moved to Indianapolis, where I volunteered and fostered at Indy Humane!! I am now in Charlottesville for the summer as I prepare for law school and my boyfriend starts his Masters at UVA. I am currently available because Rover is my main work priority this summer, allowing me flexible scheduling and consistent availability for bookings, care, and communication. I am more than happy to play/watch over with your pet and take care of them in your home or crate them if need be! Whatever works best for you.

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats for over 20 years, pets are my passion!

I’m attentive to their needs, respectful of their boundaries, and focused on creating a calm, safe environment where they can feel comfortable and cared for

I understand that not all dogs feel comfortable around strangers, so I approach every dog gently.

“Danielle was amazing! She gave my mom great peace of mind while we were away on our trip, taking care of a senior cat who was newly on oral and topical medication to help with digestive issues.

About: I have had dogs since I can remember! I have worked in kennels and dog grooming. I have worked with all different breeds and sizes. I have raised and trained many dogs of all breeds. Currently, I work from home, so my schedule is flexible. I have a 9 year old daughter who has been raised with all animals and is very comfortable around dogs.

About: I have been helping take care of dogs and cats since I was 10 and have pet sat for many people before joining Rover. I have experience with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, reptiles, fish, and chickens. I am excited for the opportunity to look after your pets of all kinds! I can watch your pet during the day, do shorter drop-in visits, or stay overnight to give your pet attention while you’re away from home. I have a flexible schedule as an online college student so I can spend the majority of time with your pets, in your home or mine. I like to stick to the routine your pet is used to, but am also open to taking them on adventures if they do well in a small car.
“Love Carolyn. She is super easy to get ahold of; always available, professional, and responsible with all the dogs! She has other awesome doggies that play with Izzy and I can tell she has a blast. Carolyn sends the cutest photos; it’s good to see that she’s enjoying herself! I will be having Izzy stay at Carolyn’s more in the future!!”
About: I am part owner of a dog training business and have dog trainers on premises. I’ve had dogs in my life since I can remember. I believe dogs are the best medicine for anyone. I limit myself to only a few dogs at a time so that I can ensure each pup gets all the love, attention and care they need while their owners are away. I am a remote worker, so I am home nearly 24/7 so your pup will be well cared for and treated as though a member of the family while staying with me. I cater to what each dog needs. Your dog will never be left alone unattended while staying with me. I have 6 acres so there is plenty of opportunity to explore.
About: 💚 DOGGY DAYCARE: Need a safe, loving place for your pup during the day? I offer doggy daycare with plenty of supervision, outdoor play, snuggles, and rest time throughout the day. Daycare drop-off begins at 6:00 AM, and pick-up must be no later than 5:00 PM, for stays up to 8 hours total. 💚 PERSONALIZED BOARDING: I intentionally keep my boarding numbers low so every dog receives plenty of love, attention, supervision, and care. Whether your pup loves playtime, couch snuggles, or a quiet place to relax, I work hard to create a safe, stress-free home environment where they feel like part of the family. 💚 ABOUT ME: I'm a homeschool mom, homemaker, and lifelong dog lover. My husband, our two kids (ages 8 and 11), and our three friendly dogs make our home a lively, loving place! I'm experienced with different breeds and personalities and take the time to get to know each pup individually. 💚 MY HOME: Someone is home most of the time to keep your dog company and ease any nerves. Expect outdoor play, couch snuggles, lots of love, and maybe a surprise math lesson or two! (Don’t worry, no pop quizzes.) Guest dogs are carefully supervised during interactions with our resident dogs and any other boarding guests. 💚 MEET-AND-GREET: I require a meet-and-greet (free of charge!) to make sure it’s the perfect fit for everyone — including your pup. Message me anytime to set one up. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! 💚 RESTRICTIONS: For insurance reasons, I am unable to accept Doberman Pinschers, Pit Bulls, Rottweilers, Chow Chows, German Shepherds, or wolf hybrids (full-bred or mixed-bred). Thank you for understanding! 💚 DOGGY DAYCARE: Need a safe, loving place for your pup during the day? Daycare drop-off begins at 6:00 AM, and pick-up must be no later than 5:00 PM, for stays up to 8 hours total. 💚 DOG BOARDING: I offer flexible dog boarding, with drop-offs as early as 6:00 AM and pick-ups as late as 10:00 PM. As a homeschooling mom, I’m home with the dogs most of the time. If I do step out for an activity, it’s only for a couple of hours, and I’m happy to give you a heads-up if you'd like to know when your pup will be home relaxing. If your dog prefers or requires crate time for naps or comfort, I’m happy to accommodate! 💚 MEALS: Your pet’s safety is my top priority. Meal times are peaceful and stress-free, with pets separated. We typically do twice-a-day feedings, but I’m happy to adjust if your pup has a different routine! 💚 PLAYTIME: Your dog will have an outdoor paradise to explore! I have a large, secure fenced yard that's perfect for fetch, frisbee fun, or just a good old-fashioned sniffari. I’ve got plenty of toys to keep tails wagging and spirits high. 💚 BEDTIME: Bedtime is whatever your dog needs it to be. Whether your pup prefers their own bed, a cozy crate, or curling up in a favorite spot, I’ll do my best to match their home routine for a comfortable, restful night.
“what is a very awesome Rover mommy I’m very funny where I leave my puppy and she took care of her better than if she was her own puppy she even trimmed her nails for me. I definitely will be returning to Paula again many times she is more than a five star sitter thank you so much, Paul”
“Bertie was amazing! It was my first time using Rover as a pet owner, and I needed a sitter for the day while on vacation. My puppy is still fairly young and is very attached to me, but she appeared to settle in pretty quickly and have a great time with some other pups. Bertie stayed in touch while I was out, sending pics and updates, and even recommended some great local spots to check out. Super happy with this experience!”

About: I love all types of dogs, especially the big ones (and puppies too!) I have had dogs all my life and am not afraid to care for any type of breed. I have experience with bird dogs with high energy. We currently have a bloodhound name Daisy, who is very friendly and loves playing with other dogs and animals! I’m currently working from home when I’m not traveling for work! My boyfriend is also amazing with helping out and available most of the time to assist with care. I’m highly attentive and aware of my surroundings. I like to keep my space clean and organized and would obviously treat your space the same way.
About: Desdé muy pequeña siempre hubo una mascota en casa, al dia de hoy el apego que tengo a los animales es muy especial, no puedo no emocionarme cuando veo algún ser vivo pasando frente a mis ojos, para mi sería un privilegio que me dieras la confianza de cuidar a tú mascota como si fuera un miembro más de la familia.♡ Actualmente tengo un trabajo independiente, asi que eso me da mucha flexibilidad para adaptarme al horario que tu mascota necesite cuidado, atención, alimento, cariño y muchísimo más. Tengo un apartamento bastantes amplio dónde tu mascota puede estar tranquilamente, tengo algunos premios, juguetes, comida, cosas con las cuales estoy segura no podria aburrirse, me gusta mucho salir a caminar asi que podria ser un gran beneficio si lo que necesitas es que tu mascota salga a despejarse un poco.
“Tina was so wonderful! I was a bit nervous going in as this was the first time I was leaving my 8 month old puppy with someone that I did not know. We set up a meet and greet during which my pup, Maizy displayed some anxiety, but Tina was not deterred. She knew Maizy needed to warm up at her pace and she got some treats right away to help build up some trust! She sent pictures and really helped me feel at ease that Maizy was well cared for! There was even a storm that rolled by which Maizy is terrified of thunder and Tina helped her feel safe! I would definitely book with her again should we need it!”
“Brooke was really good with our dog, Ollie. He had a great time exploring her place and enjoyed some outside time. I felt at peace dropping him off and picking him up. She sent pictures while he was spending the day with her and assured me that he was doing good. She was also great with communication from the start. Highly recommend!!”
About: When my rather difficult but beloved rescue passed away in November 2024, I realized for the first time how integral dogs are to living a happy and healthy life. In April 2025, I decided it was time to add a new addition to my family, and I now have a 7 month old female German Shepherd, Pilar (who I'm pretty sure is a Golden Retriever trapped in a Shepherd's body). Pilar is the most friendly dog you'll ever meet, and she LOVES to play with other dogs. I am constantly searching for quality day care for her, and I find it's difficult to find someone who is truly reliable and provides safe, clean, and comfortable care. So I've decided to take matters into my own hands and invite pups into my home. When your dog stays with me, she's going to enjoy all of the comforts she's accustomed to at home. Whether that be napping on the couch, playing in the fenced-in backyard, or lounging at my feet while I work from home. I even have a couple of crates if you'd prefer your pup enjoy crated nap time. I've had pets my entire life and have plenty of experience with animals of all types and all personalities, including damaged rescues. I've been through extensive training with Pilar and am happy to apply the skills I've learned when working with your dog, as well. My main goal with providing this service is to create an environment where pups who really enjoying playing with each other can do so safely and comfortably while enjoying the kind of care they're accustomed to at home. Please note that I have a 10 year old cat, and while she knows how to hold her ground with dogs, I cannot accept any pups who don't tolerate cats or who would put her safety at risk. I work from home full-time so pet care is woven into the fabric of my daily routine. I can support hourly potty breaks and am able to take frequent breaks for walks, playtime, mealtime, potty time, snuggles, etc. I have a fenced in yard where dogs will be let out for supervised play and potty breaks. Depending on the time of year and your preference, I have a small doggy pool so that dogs can play in the water to release energy. Indoors, dogs are welcome on the couch and on the dog beds. During nap time, I can crate your pup if you prefer, or she can be loose. The only place that's off limits are my two guest bedrooms.

“Rachel is great!! She was thorough with communications. I was on a tight schedule and we decided to meet up for the drop off and pick up. She was on time and ready to go! Ziggy is still very much a puppy and has a ton of energy. He spent the day with Rachel and I could tell he had so much fun because he was happy and healthy, but completely worn out. Thanks so much to Rachel for taking great care of my pup. Highly recommend!!!”
“We were impressed with Jessica’s care for our border collie mix Boots for a very long day care day. Boots enjoyed the fenced-in yard and romping with another visiting dog. With a lovely, flexible, positive personality, Jess made us feel assured that Boots was being well taken care of. We would highly recommend her to others and will definitely seek her services again, when we return to town and need temporary dog care.”

I am very comfortable playing with your pets outdoors or taking them on long leashed walks to get some activity for the day! I mostly enjoy tailoring each experience to the pet and owners needs!
About: I have had a dog my whole life. After my old family dog passed I decided it was time to get a puppy. After months of working closely with my pup she has succeeded in recall, leash walking, show tricks and more! She is great with other dogs and would love to hangout with your pup! I am home for the summer from college with no other interfering work plans so your dog will be at the top of my list every day!! I am always alert of other dogs around, I stay away from the street, I always have a plan so you’ll know where I am and when I’ll be back with your furry friend
About: I've had dogs my whole life, 6 in total! I currently have a Great Dane/lab mix who is a rescue. We can walk or run your neighborhood or go to a park! We can play fetch in the yard on the nice days or play inside the house on days it's too hot or raining. I can give medicines that are routine or special occurances. I can clean up any accidents left behind so you come home to a clean house after your day at work or away. I can help with training to solidify any tricks or behaviors you're trying to accomplish with your dog! I'll be sure to show your fur baby the same level of love and attention as if they were my own! I work night shift, so I am used to weird hours if needed! I am a runner so I can take your dog with me if they need a little extra exercise! I will treat your dog like they are my own! I will gladly give treats, meals, extra potty breaks, walks, runs, whatever is needed for your pet!

“My husband and I travel most places with our fur babies and finding local Rovers when they can't check-in with us. While we have had good success finding trusting and loving sitters, we really were blessed to meet Mark and Daniel. Their attention to detail prior to our pets arrival, their ability to be flexible when my scheduling mistake was uncovered, but most importantly, the level of care my pups received was top-notch. The home is clean, fenced in large yard and they really love what they do. I don't know if we will be back in that area, but if we are I will re-book with Mark and Daniel.”
“Jesse and Emily were fantastic with Kimber. Great communication with me and all the love and spoiling for Kimber. I love how they made her part of their family for the long weekend!”
“Wonderful experience ! Heather and her family were very welcoming and accommodating. They were flexible and extended the stay for our dogs when we needed to stay an extra day. The dogs were very happy and enjoyed playing with her little girls. I will definitely request Heather when we board our pups.”
“Michelle sent regular updates and photos of my three dogs. She was also flexible during pick up, accommodating an unexpected travel delay. My dogs were well cared for and happy when I picked them up. I would definitely recommend her to others.”
“Hillary provided updates including photos and videos of my pup Daisy at a cadence that kept me worry free but was not excessive. Daisy came home happy and looked well cared for. Will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Jenny sent me updates and pictures of my dog while I was gone. She took my dog with her throughout parts of the day around the stables. Drop off and pick up went smoothly. She was great!”
“This is our second time choosing Ava as Luna's caregiver. She was great with sending us updates (she sent videos and pictures). And Luna always looks so happy and comes home all overjoyed !”
“I highly recommend Aly B. She quickly answered all of my questions, both before and during my dog’s stay, sent daily photos, and kept my high energy dog safe and happy. A few days after my dog’s stay, Sunshine saw Aly and was so excited to see her, confirming that Aly provided a welcoming environment for my dog during her stay. I will definitely use Aly again to care for my fur baby.”
“Yana is amazing! She took such great care of my dog and sent daily pictures and updates which gave me peace of mind that he was happy and healthy while I was away. Highly recommend her!”
“I did a lot of homework and reviewing of boarders for my 1.5-year-old, 70 lb. Aussie/golden before landing on Robin because of her amazing reviews and years of experience. We had just had a terrible board and train situation leaving him with some pressure sores and anxiety. I am so glad I chose Robin though. She allowed me to come out a month before booking to see her facilities, get to know me and my pup, and to explain how his days would be going. Ollie looked so incredibly comfortable around her then I started calling our vacation his summer camp. She sent pictures almost daily of Ollie running around and playing with other pups. He came back to me 5 lb. lighter than before because of it (he needed it!) and I can also tell that she kept up with his training that we have been working on which I greatly appreciated. He actually looked disappointed to go home! We will of course be back and will tell everyone we know who needs a boarder! Thank you, Robin!”
About: Hi! I’m new to Rover and am currently trying to build my portfolio. I volunteered at the Cincinnati Animal Shelter for 3 consecutive years before I moved to Indianapolis, where I volunteered and fostered at Indy Humane!! I am now in Charlottesville for the summer as I prepare for law school and my boyfriend starts his Masters at UVA. I am currently available because Rover is my main work priority this summer, allowing me flexible scheduling and consistent availability for bookings, care, and communication. I am more than happy to play/watch over with your pet and take care of them in your home or crate them if need be! Whatever works best for you.
“Laura was so accommodating. My other sitter canceled the morning of and Laura was able to watch my pup the same day. She even came home from work during lunch to meet at my scheduled pickup time. She sent lots of pics during Rocky’s stay and even gave him a mini report card so I could see how he did. Definitely recommend!!!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and Nicholas was a Godsend! He was able to accommodate my last minute request, when a previous booking fell through. He was kind and flexible with my Roscoe! He sent me updates and pictures, which showed the Roscoe was doing well. I will definitely recommend and book with him again!”
“Lina and family were amazing, they took awesome care of Bella and I would absolutely book them again to pet sit my dog. She sent a lot of photos and communicated with us.”
“This was our first time leaving Pepe with a sitter and our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous, you never really know who you’re leaving your dog with. But Riley was exceptional from the very beginning. Even before I booked her, she helped me figure out how the app worked and made the whole process easy. During Pepe’s stay, she kept me 100% informed at all times with photos, videos, and messages. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and professional. I truly felt peace of mind knowing Pepe was in her hands. I have no doubt he was well cared for, and I would absolutely book her again. Thank you so much, Riley, for treating Pepe like your own dog, we truly appreciate it.”
“Julie and her family did a wonderful job looking after my dog Margarita while I was away for a week. They gave her a lot of attention and love and Margarita loved staying with them. I highly recommend Julie to other dog parents!”
“Thank you so much Amy for providing such great care to our Hunter! The pictures and videos you provided throughout the day were priceless! We look forward to sending Hunter back to you! It’s hard to find such a level of comfort when leaving furbabies!”
